With the ability to transform, I am a judge.

Yang Li held two identical Void Greatswords in each hand, quietly sensing the extremely active Apocalypse Virus within her, a slight smile appearing on her face. Her guess had proven correct; the True Name and Yuzuriha Inori's Void Greatswords could be used simultaneously.

The cross slash just now successfully dealt considerable damage to the Death Keeper. His pale face also indicated his physical condition, and it was estimated that he would have difficulty withstanding an attack of that magnitude again.

Descending from mid-air, Yang Li walked to a spot not far from the Death Keeper, the Void Greatsword poised to fall at any moment. Looking at his own impending doom, the Death Keeper gave a bitter laugh, spreading his arms to await his death.

"If you were a man, you would definitely be the most promising contender for 'Adam,' but unfortunately..."

Upon hearing this, Yang Li's face instantly darkened. Although she seemed indifferent to her physical changes, it was actually a taboo subject for her. Unfortunately, the Death Keeper had violated Yang Li's taboo; she wanted to be a man too!

With a merciless slash, the Gravekeeper of Death vanished into thin air, and no treasure chest fell. Yang Li had been mentally prepared before making her move, as her luck had most likely run out.

[The Judge has defeated the derivative character 'Divine Sense - Death Guardian'! This character holds a special position in the current 'Dimensional World'! The Judge's exploration progress in the world will be slightly increased!]

The two identical void greatswords slowly dissipated. Yang Li looked around the room; this was GHQ's office building in District 24, their headquarters. If she wasn't mistaken, the thing she wanted was here.

According to the original plot, the two Void Genomes, which were supposed to appear much later, should both be in the GHQ building, while the location of the Primal Stone was less certain. However, due to Yang Li's overreach, the timeline is now completely messed up.

According to the content of the second main quest, once the contractors from GHQ and Funeral Parlor have determined a victor, the GHQ building will definitely suffer. No one will want to accept punishment; that would be completely self-destructive. The struggle for the Void Genome will definitely begin.

Yang Li's current advantage is that she's already inside the GHQ building, while the contractors outside are still fighting. However, the building is far too large for one person to search alone, so she probably needs a guide...

“Mr. Shuichiro Keido, I don’t think I need to ask you to come out, do I? Even the Gravedigger of Death knew you were here just now…”

My gaze drifted to a corner where there was a desk, and from there emanated an aura that was completely undisguised. It was quite normal for Keido Shuichiro, who had virtually no martial arts skills, not to bother concealing his presence.

Seeing that Shuichiro Keido had no intention of coming out on his own, Yang Li was somewhat displeased; the other party seemed to think that his hiding was foolproof. Taking a few steps forward, his scarlet kagune tore apart the solid wood desk, and a figure in a white lab coat appeared in his sight.

The khaki pierced through the white coat, leaving the terrified Keido Shuichiro hanging in the air, his hands flailing aimlessly. Looking into Yang Li's ferocious eyes, he was practically about to wet himself.

Yang Li curled his lip in boredom, then kicked him to the ground, his boot landing on his head. The kagune surrounded them, trapping Keido Shuichiro within.

"Please cooperate with me properly, otherwise I might not be able to resist eating you and turning your flesh and blood into my energy..."

"I...I'll cooperate! You can't kill me, I'm your boss...Pfft!!"

Seeing that Keido Shuichiro still couldn't grasp his own position, Yang Li kicked him without hesitation, sending Keido Shuichiro spinning 720 degrees in the air. Keido Shuichiro, who was just an ordinary person, couldn't withstand Yang Li's kick, and a mouthful of blood spurted from his mouth.

The kagune pierced the ground right next to Shuichiro's head in an instant. There was no doubt that if it had been just a fraction more off, his head would have been severed. He cowered and groaned, not daring to utter another word...

"You'd better take me to get the Void Genome, or I guarantee you'll die a much worse death than Ouma Kurozu."

Mana and Ouma Shu's father is named Ouma Kuroshu, who is the first and only genius to decipher the Apocalypse Virus, and is a close friend of Keido Shuichiro.

Keido Shuichiro's younger sister, now Ouma Haruka, is even married to Ouma Kuroshu, so the two still have this connection. However, interests and jealousy ultimately drove Keido Shuichiro to extremes.

He initially shot and killed Kuroshu Ouma out of jealousy of Kuroshu's achievements and dissatisfaction with Kuroshu's refusal to cooperate in selling the results. His betrayal, as a friend, led to Kuroshu's gruesome death in the laboratory.

"Void Genome, what use do you have for that thing? Could it be... *poof*!!"

Before Keido Shuichiro could finish speaking, Yang Li kicked him away again, a kick so powerful it probably displaced Keido Shuichiro's internal organs. Yang Li, clearly annoyed, showed no sign of stopping, stepping forward and raising his foot, because the guy had absolutely no sense of self-awareness.

"Wait, wait a minute... I'll take you there. Stop kicking, I feel like I'm about to die."

Even though he was seriously injured, Keido Shuichiro stumbled to his feet, opened the door to his room, and headed towards the other end of the corridor. Yang Li followed behind him, her eyes scanning the surroundings. She didn't believe that this old fox, Keido Shuichiro, would let the matter rest so easily.

Shuichiro Keido, who has been living in the 'Adam Dream' all along, will not give up easily; he definitely has some backup plan. His mind has been corrupted by the Gravekeeper of Death, and he is gradually heading towards madness!

After passing through layers of identity verification, Yang Li followed Xiuichiro Keido into a passageway. At the other end was a high-tech laboratory, where the Void Genome placed on the experimental table in the center caught Yang Li's eye.

Just then, Shuichiro Keido suddenly rushed towards the laboratory, slamming his body against the wall at one end. As Shuichiro Keido collapsed, coughing up blood, the entire corridor turned red.

"Hahahaha!!...You didn't expect that, did you?! This laboratory has long been transformed into a fortress. Even if you can kill the Death Keeper, you still can't escape unscathed from the intense laser radiation!!"

"...Oh, I see."

An unremarkable voice rang out beside Shuichiro Keido, leaving him completely stunned. At the same time, scorching laser beams began to spread throughout the entire passage.

A crimson object filled Shuichiro Keido's vision; this was the last thing he would ever see in his life, a scene of frenzied madness, like that of a demon!

Thank you [Ais] for the soap and five razor blades! Thank you so much for your support!!

Section 76, Chapter 74: The Inheritance Crystal (Incomplete)

Chapter 74: The Inheritance Crystal (Fragmented)

Yang Li had no interest in such a clown-like character; her only goal was the Void Genome. When she obtained the King's Power, she acquired two abilities, one of which could only be enhanced using the Void Genome.

Both abilities are formidable. The Void Greatsword was the key to Yang Li's forceful killing of the Death Keeper, while the first skill was used to accumulate imprints. Although it seemed that Yang Li only managed to strike the Death Keeper's true form three times from beginning to end, that was only on the surface.

The Death Keeper's clones return to the main body after death, and the accumulated imprints are also transferred to the main body... Although the probability of triggering the imprints is not high, when surrounded by countless clones of the Death Keeper, Yang Li killed at least more than two hands' worth of clones.

In addition, her King Power was upgraded after she defeated Ouma Shu, and the two abilities corresponding to King Power were also upgraded!

Skill Name: King of Thorns (Passive Skill)

Skill Level: LV: 2 (Can be upgraded)

Usage requirements: Possess the King's Power exclusive to 'Adam' or 'Candidate Adam'!

Effect 1: Reduces damage taken by 2%.

Effect 2: When attacking someone who is not a King, the opponent will accumulate Apocalypse Virus in their body, which has a chance to form a special mark. Each mark will cause the Judge to deal an additional 0.6% true damage. There are a maximum of 5 marks!

Skill Description: The King of Thorns, burdened with countless sins, wears a crown woven from thorns! To wear the crown, one must bear its weight! None who are not kings can rival the king!

Skill Name: Void Armor (Active Skill)

Skill Level: LV: 2 (Cannot be upgraded by normal methods; upgrading requires consuming Void Genome)

Usage requirements: Possess the King's Power exclusive to 'Adam' or 'Candidate Adam'!

Effect 1: By making eye contact with someone containing the Apocalypse Virus, the virus can be materialized into a weapon and extracted. The type of weapon is related to the individual's personality. The vast majority of equipment is of blue rank, with a very small number of pieces of equipment of rank ??? (Insufficient Judge rank to determine).

Effect 2: Can enhance other Void units, putting them into King Mode! Significantly enhances the performance of Void units!

Skill Description: Serving the king and contributing one's strength is the duty of every subject! Even those who are not the king who rules you should still maintain due respect. Those who disrespect the king shall die!

……

The five imprints at the limit provided Yang Li with 3.0% true damage, which may not seem high on the surface, but the attack power of the Void Greatsword is not to be underestimated! The Death Guardian, who was originally blessed with the power of the world and was immune to most damage, was still killed instantly by three consecutive hits of true damage!

The skill 【Void Armor】 also needs to be upgraded. Strengthening the void will greatly increase Yang Li's combat power, since the Void Greatsword is her strongest weapon.

Walking step by step to the experimental platform in the center, Yang Li took down the Void Genome from the platform, and also took out the Void Genome that he had obtained at the beginning. At the same time, a notification from 'Abyss Paradise' arrived!

[Main Quest (I): Factional Conflict and Carnage (Second Stage, Final Stage) has ended! Winners: GHQ contractors! Remaining players: 4!]

[Rewards have been distributed!]

Having indeed achieved victory, Yang Li breathed a sigh of relief, then weighed the two Void Genomes in his hand. Immediately afterward, 'Abyss Paradise' released new information, this time related to the faction contribution points earned by each individual!

A virtual list appeared in Yang Li's sight, the dark blue font bringing her a sense of pleasure.
