287: Section 287

That was a spot-on example, but don't use examples next time... it hurts!

Creeeeeak!—

Leina gritted her silver teeth.

She stared fiercely at the Astral Express, the place where A-Zhui had departed from...

Damn it all!

She had just been flexed on by an Angel's wealth right to her face!

But the question was...

Where did the Angels get such massive resource reserves?

It was undeniable that because the Angel Civilization upheld the Order of cosmic civilizations, their resource reserves were exaggeratedly high.

However, with so many members in the first and second phases of the Black Armor Company combined, plus the resources needed to complete the demigod bodies of the Power of the Galaxy and the War God of Noxing, it should have been a volume of resources that, while perhaps not crippling to the Angels, would at least be extremely painful.

But...

Thinking back to A-Zhui's indifferent little expression.

She clearly didn't care in the slightest.

It was almost as if she was spending money to buy future peace and quiet!

No, wait.

On what basis are the Angels so rich?

...

Angel Qi Lin had a complex expression:

"Sister Zhixin, was it really worth it for me?"

Zhixin looked up, a look of confusion crossing her face before she realized and said:

"Are you talking about those resources?"

"Yeah, I just tried to calculate the total amount of resources Sister A-Zhui gave to the Black Armor Company; it's enough to equip ten Third-Generation Angel sisters!"

To be honest, Qi Lin was a bit panicked.

This was the first time she realized she could be so valuable.

Unexpectedly.

Zhixin burst into laughter:

"See, you've misunderstood again!"

"Eh?"

Shaking her head, Zhixin affectionately stroked Qi Lin's small head before explaining one by one:

"Remember I told you that the current Angel Civilization has already begun to set foot in the myriad heavens and the multiverse?"

"In the past, resources sufficient to arm ten Third-Generation Angels were very important to us."

"But now, just the resources we've gathered from other universes have caused our storage to seriously overflow, not to mention... we have the King of Heavenly Principles as our backer!"

"Just like what you experienced not long ago, as long as the King is willing, he can transform a mortal into a new Angel in the blink of an eye!"

Leina was right.

Compared to any force in the Known Universe.

The current Angels could absolutely be called the epitome of wealth and power!

Furthermore, in the foreseeable future.

The Angels will become even richer!

Therefore.

The Angel sisters had unanimously decided that from now on, the recruitment of new Angels would be conducted in the same manner!

For the Angels, who were all super-rich women.

They would rather spend a bit more than see a future sister caught in a dilemma between the Angels and her native civilization!

To put it bluntly.

This sum of resources had only one purpose.

—To sever any possibility of Earth leeching off Qi Lin!

At the current stage of the Angels, problems that could be solved with money were not problems at all!

...

On the dream battlefield, Su Ming raised his hand and waved.

The two Dark Silver Chainss that Liang Bing had tried everything to break, yet remained unmoved, instantly crumbled into ash.

Without giving Liang Bing a chance to explode in anger.

Su Ming raised his hand, and starlight fell!

Boom!—

A planetary projection crushed down with overwhelming force.

In an instant, Liang Bing was sent flying tens of thousands of meters away. Although she wasn't necessarily injured, she was covered in dust and looked quite miserable.

Boom!—

Another planetary projection followed the guidance of the starlight and slammed into Liang Bing.

This time, Liang Bing was prepared in advance.

She managed to deploy layers of Space-time Barriers in time.

Unfortunately, Liang Bing was still struck heavily by the planetary projection, flying ten thousand meters away on the spot.

---Requesting Flowers---

"Wait! You wait a second!"

Liang Bing suppressed her anger and shouted passionately:

"I already deployed twelve layers of Space-time Barriers, how the hell did you manage to hit me?"

Su Ming didn't hide it and said directly:

"I know, so the attack just now hit the 'you' who hadn't yet deployed the Space-time Barriers!"

Liang Bing was stunned:

"Timeline Strike?"

Boom!—

The third planetary projection ruthlessly bombarded Liang Bing.

She was still encased in twelve layers of Space-time Barriers, with a defensive power so terrifying that even tanking a helium flash would be no problem.

But...

The result remained the same.

The dignified Demon Queen was sent flying far away like a ball.

...0...

In that moment, Liang Bing was almost in tears:

"Fuck! You brat, you're fucking cheating again!"

Su Ming had an innocent look:

"Nonsense, the battle isn't over yet, how can this be considered cheating!"

While speaking, the fourth planetary projection had already fallen.

Liang Bing cursed out a 'bitch' and flashed away to escape.

Unfortunately, no matter how amazing Liang Bing's Micro-wormhole transport technology was, she could only take the violent impact from the planetary projection head-on!

The force... wasn't fatal.

After all, she, the Demon Queen, was a powerhouse possessing a Fourth-Generation Space-Time Divine Body.

But it really did hurt!

Every collision of the planetary projection was, for Liang Bing, a sharp pain that reached into her marrow and spread to every divine body particle in her being!

Worse still, Su Ming's offensive never ceased, and the reality of being continuously hit also proved something.

Faced with Su Ming's massive area-of-effect skill, Liang Bing could not run, could not dodge, and could not defend!

Liang Bing had tried to escape, but no matter how she fled, she would always mysteriously return to the battlefield!

She had also been trying to dodge, her Micro-wormhole transport technology was being used so much it was practically sparking, yet she didn't miss a single hit she was supposed to take!

She was even constantly defending, but unfortunately...

She had tried Light-energy Barriers, Space-time Barriers, and bringing back the Devils Claw for defense.

But those self-preservation methods were like fakes, or as if they were not on the same layer as Su Ming's attacks.

After realizing this.

Liang Bing had a look of utter despair.

She slumped in the starry sky, allowing the attacks to land on her, even if it meant her divine body shattered several times, she didn't give a damn anymore.

Chapter 332: Timeline Strike! The Frustrated Liang Bing

Yes.

Liang Bing had given up.

Fortunately, Liang Bing, who was born an Angel, also had a decent grasp of Matter Restoration Technology.

Otherwise.

Having been chased by Su Ming's Starlight Fall for three minutes, Liang Bing would have long been left in tatters, looking like a beggar.

Flashing forward, he looked down and met Liang Bing's eyes:

"Is that all you've got? What a shame, Starlight Fall has three progressive evolving effects, and you've only experienced the first one: Mass-energy Impact!"

After a moment of silence, Liang Bing finally calmed down.

She didn't care that Su Ming was right in front of her, seemingly able to kill her in the next instant.

Right now, she only wanted one answer:

"So, your attack just now... really was a Timeline Strike?"

Su Ming raised his hand, and the limitless ziwei great throne appeared out of thin air.

As Su Ming sat down, he responded:

"I have no need to lie to you..."

Liang Bing paused, then argued:

"Impossible. Once the past is changed, it would inevitably cause my memories to change in sync, but comparing them with my memory backups... there's no such thing at all!"

"Oh, not bad..."

Su Ming praised Liang Bing's rationality:

"I thought you had completely given up, but I didn't expect you to be quietly looking for flaws in private!"

"Heh!—You're right, changes in the past will inevitably reflect on the present..."

"It's just that while I'm attacking your past, I'm also grafting the trauma you sustain onto the present!"

As for the operation.

That was even simpler.
