With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

In response to Yang Li's teasing question, Zhenming first slapped Yang Li impatiently, then stared blankly in the direction where the pillar of light had completely disappeared. However, the sadness in her eyes was still very clear; after all, that was her only family member in this world.

As for Yuzuriha Inori? In her eyes, that girl was a menace, stealing a part of her essence and causing her current incompleteness...

"I will detonate the bomb I placed in Ouma Shu's stomach before I return to 'Abyss Paradise'... The power contained in the Void Genome has greatly helped my improvement, and I will not let him go."

Yang Li felt that he might be a ruthless person, and had even prepared himself to make Zhenming upset, but then Zhenming suddenly burst out laughing.

Releasing her arms from Yang Li's, Zhenming hugged her tightly, burying her head in her heart. A muffled sound rang out, perhaps a sign of Zhenming's realization.

"I was once on your pirate ship, can I get off now? I'm not a good older sister to Shu, I can't do anything for him. I hope you can act without the Void Greatsword and the King's Power, please don't use my power, okay? Even if this world will reset..."

"...I promise you."

Smiling, Yang Li agreed to Zhenming's last request and watched her slowly fade away, her long, jet-black hair turning pale again.

Four kagune danced wildly in the air. Yang Li glanced at the direction where the battle was about to begin, and the white-quality longsword, Autumn Water, appeared in her hand. After all, she had promised True Name not to use the Void Greatsword and the Power of the King, so this was the only way for her to increase her combat power.

"Bang!!"

Yang Li, gripping the hilt of her sword tightly, walked to an intersection. Suddenly, a figure flew past her and into a small pavilion next to the Ferris wheel. The pavilion was smashed to pieces, and an iron spear pierced the chest of the flying figure.

The opponent was pierced through by a single shot, and the power from the gun propelled him into the air. The person who fired that shot was incredibly strong! This reminded Yang Li of someone he had fought at the Funeral Parlor base.

The gun looked familiar, and its quality was quite good. In particular, judging from the occasional flashes of emerald green light on the gun, it was probably a top-quality green weapon.

Yang Li moved a few steps to the left, blocking the middle of the road, staring intently at a figure approaching. This guy was someone she had just fought today; he was the 'idiot' that Contractor Lao Luo had mentioned, the captain of the largest of the two remaining teams from the Funeral Parlor.

"Oh, so it's you, the defeated wimp who fled last night. Are you ready to die?!"

Clearly taken aback by the other party's loud voice, Yang Li's cheek twitched slightly. Where did this guy get his inexplicable confidence? He even lost his most important weapon, which is fatal for someone who specializes in weapons.

Indeed, Yang Li could tell from their last encounter that his opponent was a master of weaponry combat. Judging solely from the opponent's technical skills, he estimated that the opponent was at least a level one expert, not much lower than Yang Li himself.

This is a formidable opponent! (Unfortunately, he lost his most important weapon.)

Section 71, Chapter 69: Bullying the Gun-less Spearman

Chapter Sixty-Nine: Bullying the Gun-less Spearman

With his leg muscles tensed and his foot stomping down, Yang Li lunged directly at the contractor opposite him, moving as fast as a black shadow. His menacing kagune attacked from four directions, its gleaming blades concealed within.

The contractor who was suddenly attacked was known as the "Reckless King." To others, he was indeed incredibly reckless, but his strength was undeniable, like that of a king. Even without his usual spear, he showed no intention of running away or giving up, and instead swung his fist directly at Yang Li.

Trying to outmuscle Yang Li is a foolish thing to do. The attack of four kagune cannot be completely intercepted by a pair of fists. Mang Wang had several wounds on his body in the initial exchange, and his cheek was even cut off.

"what!!"

Feeling the pain in his body, the Mang King roared, and several bright red lines spread across his body.

As this phenomenon occurred, his physical defense was enhanced. The most direct manifestation of this was that the opponent withstood the Kagune's attack with his bare body, leaving only a few small bloodstains.

Mang Wang's entire body was covered in these patterns, and his breathing became rapid and somewhat erratic, indicating that this ability consumed a great deal of his stamina. His fists suddenly hardened, something Yang Li hadn't expected, so much so that she was knocked back by his extremely brutal punch.

Her body slid backward uncontrollably, her feet leaving two furrows in the ground. The 1.9-meter-tall Mang Wang swiftly bypassed her to retrieve his weapon. His kagune surged forth instantly, wrapping around Mang Wang's ankles and pulling him to the ground.

Four kagune surged forward, and Yang Li flung Mang Wang into a nearby building, the wall instantly caved in. However, the attack seemed to have caused little damage; the opponent merely shook his head and walked out of the ruins.

"I'm starting to get the hang of it, but it's not enough..."

Taking advantage of the King's rambling, Yang Li rushed out and delivered a high kick to his face. The kick sent the man staggering, and the sharp khatbin propelled him through the chest, sending him flying.

The attack was accompanied by some bloodshed. Yang Li rushed into the building, but was immediately thrown back out. She was knocked away by a metal shipping container, thrown by the brute inside while her vision was still adjusting from the sudden change from light to darkness.

A burly figure burst forth from the breach in the building's wall. The Mang Wang continued his charge towards the weapon he so desperately desired, for without it he would surely lose to Yang Li. The crimson markings on his body were fading; if they disappeared, he would be crippled within five seconds!

Using his kagune to pick up a metal container that had fallen to the side, Yang Li, with his speed surpassing that of the Mang Wang, blocked his path, leaping up and smashing the container down. The heavy 'hidden weapon' stunned the Mang Wang, followed by a barrage of hammer blows.

Because Mang Wang's physical defense was so strong, Yang Li did not choose to attack with sharp kagune. Using Qiu Shui would result in too much durability loss. Therefore, she adopted a method similar to blunt force, bombarding the container.

After a brutal beating, Mang Wang was completely stunned, while the metal container that Yang Li had wrapped with his kagune was now only half intact. Suddenly, Mang Wang sprang to his feet and slammed his head into the metal container, barely managing to push back Yang Li despite his rapidly decreasing health.

Mang Wang had absolutely no desire to fight Yang Li anymore. He had originally wanted a final showdown between masters of skill, but this current fighting style was unacceptable to him. Most importantly, he couldn't win! If they continued, wouldn't he be beaten to death?

They took off running, their decisiveness leaving Yang Li slightly bewildered. How did they just disappear mid-fight? Looking around in confusion, she noticed the spear at the pavilion was gone.

Turning his head, Yang Li saw that the Mang Wang, holding an iron spear, was looking at him with full fighting spirit, while the underling who had helped him pick up the weapon quickly retreated from the battlefield.

Is a battle of techniques inevitable after all? With this thought in mind, Yang Li gripped Qiu Shui tightly and lowered his body. This was the best stance to counterattack while maintaining a stable lower body.

"Damn it! I almost got caught out of control! This time I'm going to kill you!...Ah!!"

Mang Chao spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva onto the ground, gripped the spear shaft tightly with both hands, and lowered his body as well. With a furious roar, the bright red patterns lit up again, but this time the patterns appeared on the iron spear, as he reinforced the hardness of his weapon!

The long sword Qiushui, whose quality was already inferior to this iron spear, is now in an extremely awkward situation.

Yang Li frowned slightly at this scene and immediately put away the Hegemon and Autumn Water, which made Mang Wang think that she didn't want to fight using techniques. The next moment, when he saw a card appear in Yang Li's hand, his expression changed drastically.

A burst of blue and white light erupted, and a magnificent Void Greatsword appeared in Yang Li's hand. Although she had promised Mana that she wouldn't use the Void Greatsword or the King's Power, the contractor opposite her wasn't Shu Ouma. Mana wouldn't stand by and watch Yang Li be bullied, so she decisively showed herself.

Yang Li smiled slightly at the somewhat ethereal Zhenming beside him, tightened his grip on the Void Greatsword, and then vanished instantly. A dark presence appeared, a sharp whooshing sound rang out, and the Mang King gritted his teeth, focusing intently on Yang Li's trail as he hurled his spear.

The Void Greatsword clashed with the clearly reinforced iron spear, and in a single exchange, the spear was nearly destroyed, fine cracks appearing on its surface. With a pained expression and a slight throbbing in his heart, the Mang King chose to unleash his long-hidden talent.

Yang Li didn't wait for the opponent to shout out the name of the skill move. He directly slashed down with his sword, forcibly splitting the iron spear in two, and then kicked the Mang Wang in the waist.

This kick caused Mang Wang to lose control of his lower body, and his lumbar spine was almost broken. However, his innate skill had already been successfully activated!

[Attention Judges! Do not harm members of your own faction indiscriminately!]

Upon seeing this notification, Yang Li's immediate thought was, "Abyss Paradise, are you kidding me?" Then, Mang Wang's words resolved her momentary doubt.

"Hahaha! This is my innate ability, the SS-level special talent [Faction Change]! As long as I use it in a faction-based combat mission, I can immediately change my faction. This is the reason why I dare to go all out and directly offend you."

After carefully considering the hints from 'Abyss Paradise', Yang Li looked at the smug Mang Wang and realized that he wasn't a reckless fool after all. His recklessness was just a facade; in reality, he was shrewd and had outmaneuvered many people... but unfortunately, he miscalculated one thing.

He seemed to have underestimated the authority of the judge, so Yang Li swung his blade and severed his head. Looking at that incredulous expression, the King of Mang probably didn't even know why he died.

Without the appearance of any treasure chests (from the killing), the previous four treasure chests may have already exhausted Yang Li's luck, but there's nothing that can be done about it.

The reason she chose to take action against the Mang King was because 'Abyss Paradise' hadn't mentioned the punishment for doing so. 'Abyss Paradise', which is usually very strict, would usually give a warning about the punishment in advance, but this time it didn't... and that was enough.

Thank you to [Yakumo Yuyu Zi] for the two razor blades! Thank you for your support!!

Section 72, Chapter Seventy: The Amusement Park Gradually Turning into a Battlefield

Chapter Seventy: The Amusement Park Gradually Turning into a Battlefield

(Ah... I went out this morning and forgot I hadn't updated the show yet because I was watching it this afternoon. I usually put the chapters in the background in advance, but I forgot because I stayed up too late watching the show last night...)

(Anyway, it's all wrong. As usual, there will be three updates today. This is the first chapter; the second chapter will be at 18 PM, the third chapter at 20 PM... That's all!)

The street where Ouma Shu obtained the King's Power is now a scene of utter chaos, completely out of control. Contractors from all walks of life are battling with their skills and special effects on full display, while Ouma Shu, who has just obtained the King's Power, is hiding in a corner looking completely bewildered.

Although he had gained unimaginable terrifying abilities and regained some of his lost memories, he still felt awkward no matter how he looked at it. Outside, a group of people were fighting, some seeking revenge, others complaining... This made Shu Ouma want to question the heavens.

"Why is their art style different from mine?!"

'Abyss Paradise' has a protection mechanism for contractors, which means that abilities from any other world are treated as normal and basic operations in the current 'dimensional world'. No matter how absurd an ability is, as long as it is not displayed excessively, it will not arouse suspicion from derivative characters.

But now both sides' contractors are fighting with real intensity, unleashing all sorts of abilities and techniques without restraint, rendering the 'Abyss Paradise's' concealment mechanism almost useless. Even Shu Ouma is completely bewildered by their chaotic and frenzied attacks.

"Ah! Give me more pain, then die!!"

Especially the shirtless guy who had just yelled, which gave Shu Ouma an uncontrollable thought... 'Where did this monster come from?!'

This contractor is 2.1 meters tall, with dark skin and white teeth, clearly of African origin (?). His abilities are somewhat similar to those of the Heroic Spirit Spartacus from the Fate world, but a weaker version.

The effect is that the more severely injured one is, the stronger one becomes in combat. Although one won't turn into a non-human monster, there is a certain limit to the increase in strength. Once the limit is reached, the self-recovery ability increases dramatically, making one an incredibly resilient and invincible super-strong individual.

Looking at this tank who could still show a 'pleasant' smile even when being hit (just kidding), and who was frantically attacking with his shield, Ouma Shu felt a tightness in his anus! That figure, full of philosophical aura, was hard to approach.

Among the three people being relentlessly attacked by this black man was Lao Luo, the contractor from before, who had already been sent flying twice by the shield. He truly hadn't expected that just as they had joined forces to severely injure the monster that resembled the Judge, something even more terrifying had appeared!

That one had extremely high combat power and strong recovery ability, while this one's combat power grew stronger the more it was fought, its recovery ability gradually increased, and it even had a demonic sound that filled the ears! The opponent's laughter, which made people's butts clench, made it difficult for all the men fighting against it to exert their full strength, and the women avoided it like the plague.

"Hahaha... Ahahaha!! Not enough! Still not enough... Use more force!!"

The shield, of exceptional quality even among green-tier weapons, sent all three men flying in a dazzling display of skill. What made it even more infuriating was that the injuries they had painstakingly inflicted on the black man were almost completely healed, showing no signs of damage.

The black man looked at his opponents lying on the ground coughing up blood and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because his ability had a major flaw; otherwise, a first-tier contractor wouldn't even have the opportunity to learn.

There are two drawbacks. First, his magic resistance is significantly reduced, allowing mages to deal an additional 50% damage to him. Second, his recovery ability is quite limited, as it increases gradually. Under normal circumstances, he might be killed before his recovery ability can be increased...

Fortunately, he joined a long-standing squad whose leader was a healer with terrifying healing abilities, granting him unimaginable combat power. Furthermore, since there were no mages this time, his full advantages were on full display.

With the shield slung over his shoulder, the bald black man flashed his pearly white teeth...

"Is that all you guys can do? Looks like I'll have to find some other opponents. That Mang Wang is not bad...emmmm, but it would be better if Kaneki Ken wasn't a female version, then I could have a proper chat with him."

The gay-sounding remarks made the three already wounded guys' eyes twitch, and they instinctively took a step back. If they were still doubtful before, now they were basically certain... This guy was a real gay man!!!

Upon hearing this, a girl hidden in the shadows covered her face, even momentarily considering revoking the healing spell, but ultimately refrained. This girl was the black man's healer team leader; if the black man hadn't been so incredibly powerful, she would never have let this gay guy join the team!

Unaware that his captain had nearly gotten him killed, the black guy looked around the battlefield and found that there seemed to be no opponents (good-looking men) who were worth his attention. Helpless, he had no choice but to turn his attention back to the opponent in front of him.

"Come, let me bestow upon you true 'pleasure'!!"

"You, you stay away!!" ×3

……

Yang Li entered the battlefield, her long sword Qiu Shui held firmly in her hand, her gaze slowly shifting. Her current plan was to first deal with Ouma Shu, then detonate the pre-prepared bombs, and finally confront the Death Guardian.

As the final boss, the Death Guardian, Yang Li felt that once she attacked Ouma Shu, he would definitely not let her go. If the faction-versus-faction mission was not successfully completed, then dealing with the Death Guardian would be a must.

"Come, let me bestow upon you true 'pleasure'!!"

"You, you stay away!!" ×3

A philosophical voice, brimming with resistance, rang out, and a tall, black man came into view. The three men he was chasing and beating looked so 'weak, pitiful, and helpless' at that moment...

With a look of utter disbelief, Yang Li immediately turned and left; the situation was simply too much to bear. Although she was now a girl, she showed no signs of developing into a fujoshi (a female fan of male-male romance), and besides, fujoshi didn't like muscular men!

Yang Li, whose soul was still male, would avoid such 'monsters' at all costs, so she subconsciously chose to move in another direction. This area seemed to be a famous haunted house in the amusement park, and the battle between the contractors had not yet affected this place.

"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry."
