Infinite: Starting from Infiltrating Other Spaces

A 'crunching' sound, like chewing, echoed in the room.

The weapons were devoured much faster than the materials before, and after only a short while, the light spots suddenly scattered.

They suddenly huddled together under the expectant gazes of Aowu and Heitan.

"Sizzle~~"

Blue lightning bolts darted around the room at a dazzling speed, even though it was a completely enclosed space.

A gentle breeze was blowing, and the lightning bolts were flashing faster and faster, causing the breeze to gradually become more turbulent.

Small, scattered items in the room were carried by the wind and floated in the air.

Li Xia stretched out her hand, fingers spread:

"Come!"

The blinding bolt of lightning appeared in its hand and obediently stopped.

The wind swirled around his feet, forming a visible vortex.

Tiny sparks of electricity swirled around it, and Night Silence finally revealed its form.

The originally jet-black gun shaft was now covered with lightning-like patterns resembling tree branches.

These patterns shimmered with a faint, flickering light.

The originally gleaming gun blade also acquired some patterns, shimmering with silver light.

Just looking at that spear blade made my eyes feel like they were about to be cut.

The sharp aura emanating from it could be felt from a great distance, its chilling presence palpable.

A thin stream of wind swirled around the spear, like a tiny wind dragon coiling and flowing around its shaft.

Li Xia released his grip, and the entire spear strangely floated in mid-air, undulating slightly up and down.

The deep purple light is not strong, and it is even difficult to see with the naked eye. Only in the occasional fleeting glimpse can one witness its restrained brilliance.

"hiss------"

Blackie and the howling bird perched on its head both inhaled sharply. The sight... the imposing presence...

"It's got the look! Your Highness, quickly check the attributes!"

Awoo urged impatiently, for it must have seen weapons that were countless times stronger than Night Silence.

However, some equipment, even if it is not of high grade, can show its future potential at a glance.

"Um--"

Not only Aowu and Heitan, but even Li Xia himself was amazed by the 'beauty' of the Night's Silence.

[Synopsis: This gun yearns to follow its master, either to the throne or to death.]

Li Xia's eyes sparkled; his persistent dedication had finally paid off at this moment.

Nightfall has undergone a complete transformation, receiving an epic upgrade!

The information on the panel is very general and simple. What does that mean?

This means that writing it out in detail would be too much, or it's simply impossible to write it in detail at all!

"Let's go! Let's give it a try—"

...................

Free Practice Area

The vast square was deserted. Li Xia gripped Night Silence, took a deep breath, and guided the spear in accordance with the resonance of his soul.

Gradually, he felt that the Night Silence in his hand seemed to have a rhythmic breath.

That spiritual connection gave him and Ye Ji an extremely subtle feeling.

"Thorn-"

Dazzling sparks of electricity leaped from the spear, coiling around it. These tiny sparks of electricity, like leaping sprites, joyfully danced and disappeared along the spear's surface.

Then it popped up from another place.

His fingers deftly manipulated the spear shaft, the spear moving with an incredibly smooth motion—a feeling he had never experienced before.

It was as if the wind itself had its own thoughts, accompanying the wielding of the spear with merely the flick of a finger.

The spear stirred up visible vortices in the air, giving form to the invisible wind at that moment.

The electric sparks surged into it, dancing and dazzlingly bright.

"Meow--"

"Yeah, it's pretty. I think those electric lights aren't just for looks; they might be quite dangerous too."

The little paws, supporting its chin, made a comment.

Under the watchful eyes of the two children, Li Xia grabbed the spear, let out a sharp shout, and the spear in his hand vibrated with a buzzing sound.

Suddenly, it transformed from a physical object into a beam of azure electricity, looking as if it had grasped a bolt of lightning in its hand.

His muscles bulged suddenly as he hurled the 'electric spark' in his hand.

As if teleported, the target hundreds of meters away exploded with thick smoke.

Li Xia reached out his hand again, and a sharp bird-like cry came from afar; electricity had reappeared in his hand.

"hiss----"

Good heavens! Looking at the lightning bolt in his hand, Li Xia gasped. Zeus, is it?

Simply throwing electricity in Night Silence might not do much damage, since it's not affected by strength or the weapon's attack power.

Instead, it's more like an energy attack, causing damage only from electric current.

But it's fast! It's so convenient for clearing out mobs!

As a free practice area, the hall also provided the speed of Night Silence, reaching a terrifying 5000 meters per second, which is far from the 100000 meters per second of Lightning.

(Light emitted by lightning travels at the speed of light, but lightning itself does not. A pilot channel needs to be established before current can be transmitted, and the speed is about 1/2000th of the speed of light.)

But this speed is absolutely unmatched by second-tier speeds, and even third-tier speeds would struggle to keep up.

If it goes any faster, it could reach the highest speed in space and orbit the Earth.

"Your Highness, doesn't this mean that a single shot from ten thousand meters away can kill someone?"

"Awoo!" he shouted excitedly as he watched Night Silence fly out and then reappear in his hand.

"Not really, at least not right now."

Li Xia shook his head. He had the same thought just now, which was why he kept testing:

"There is a maximum distance. It should be that the soul resonance between me and Ye Ji can only last for about 1000 meters. Beyond that, we will be outside the range of soul resonance and cannot return."

I tried it, and every time I threw it, it traveled the same distance before Nightfall automatically stopped. Unless I don't need it to come back, then I can break the limitation.

He stroked his chin and thought carefully for a while:

"I think it might be a problem with the strength of my soul. As long as it gradually becomes stronger, the range will definitely increase."

In addition to being able to transform into lightning, Li Xia also discovered that Ye Ji could manipulate lightning on a small scale.

At least it's not a problem to discharge electricity at the tip of the gun. The damage from this kind of electric current that causes paralysis may not be high, but the effect is excellent.

Especially for a melee fighter like Li Xia, a one or two-second numbing effect is enough for him to unleash his maximum damage output instantly.

Wind control is far less powerful than electricity control. After all, Steelix didn't obtain the Gem, and the weak wind control ability brought by Steelix's sharp horns is only about this level.

However, the reduction in wind resistance alone is already quite remarkable.

The gun barrel is cylindrical, so it experiences much greater wind resistance than a thin blade.

This is why Li Xia always produces a loud shriek whenever he swings his spear with all his might.

Now, even when swinging the spear with all his might, the whistling sound it creates is almost non-existent, and the speed is much faster.

The final living gun is even more interesting.

With a mere thought, Ye Ji's spear blade suddenly lengthened considerably, becoming comparable to a longsword.

How long is the limit?

Aowu and Heitan saw the spear blade in Li Xia's hand grow longer and longer, until it finally stretched out to almost 2 meters before stopping.

Uh... Li Xia looked at Night Silence in his hand with a strange expression—if it evolves further, will it turn into a forty-meter-long sword?

I tried swinging it, and even with the reduced wind resistance, the 2-meter-long blade still brought a powerful sense of psychological pressure just by waving it.

The fact that Aowu and Heitan darted away a long way is clear proof of this.

We've tried making it bigger, so what about making it smaller?

With a thought, Li Xia saw Ye Ji rapidly shrink until it was about the size of a baseball bat.

This should be the limit of the active metal in Steel Dragon.

Having tested the weapon's performance, the next step is actual combat.

"Hall of Fame, Group Battle Mode, based on the previous settings, mixed types of enemies!"

Everything around me suddenly dimmed, and then darkness engulfed me like a tidal wave.

When the light reappeared, Li Xia stood once again in that empty training ground.

Aowu and Heitan instinctively hid themselves; these were His Highness's newly acquired weapons, and they didn't need to be involved yet.

"Whoosh—whoosh—whoosh"

Several arrows flew from a distance, but Li Xia stood still, even without the [Smaug Scale] on his body.

However, their physical strength was far beyond what simple cold weapons could penetrate.

"The Hall of Fame has moved directly to Stage 3."

This endless mode starts from 0 and gradually increases, with different enemy damage and numbers at each stage.

In the initial stages, such as stage 0, the damage intensity is generally around 1-2, and the number of enemies gradually increases.

It means nothing to me now.

The damage of the enemies in the third phase is 4-5, and their number is just over 1000, which is just right.

As soon as he finished speaking, the previously sparse arrows suddenly became dense.

All that could be heard was a low hum, the sound of the bowstring vibrating together.

A black cloud suddenly rose into the sky a hundred meters away.

Li Xia's eyes lit up, he took a deep breath, and lightly kicked the butt of Ye Ji's gun with his toe.

The spear, which had been still, began to spin in front of him and in an instant transformed into a graceful display of spear flowers.

"Ding ding ding ding"

Even if the spear dance was incredibly fast, it couldn't block the dense barrage of arrows.
