525: Who are you?

Seeing this, a flicker of doubt crossed Valkis's Big Eye in his forehead.

His move, "Total Collapse," was effective against Big Eye Aliens whose Mental Energy Rank was lower than his.

But the Golden War Crab Alien in front of him was completely unharmed, proving that its Mental Energy Rank was the same as his, also Rank 28!

Strictly speaking, it should be at least Rank 28, but Valkis thought that was impossible.

Those who could become Advanced Sky Soaring Warriors would not have poor Mental Energy.

However, normally, Mental Energy Rank would be 1 to 2 Ranks lower than Life Strength Rank.

The opponent, like him, was a Rank 25 Advanced Sky Soaring Warrior. Logically, its Mental Energy should be between Rank 23 and 24, or even worse, because the probability of it being equal was very low, and exceeding it was even harder.

But from the current results, there was a 99.99% chance that the opponent's Mental Energy Rank was Rank 28!

Rank 25 Life Strength and Rank 28 Mental Energy – this achievement, even within the Big Eye Civilization, which was known for its Mental Energy, was considered extremely, extremely good.

If it were in another Small Civilization, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an anomaly!

"So that's how it is."

"I didn't expect that your Golden War Crab Civilization, which appears to be entirely encased in hard armor, is actually, like us, a Civilization that excels in Mental Energy!"

In an instant, Valkis analyzed the conclusion.

The number of Small Civilizations was as numerous as the stars in the sky. It was a rare thing for Valkis to know the name of the Golden War Crab Civilization.

This was mainly because the Golden War Crab Civilization was a top-tier Civilization; otherwise, for a Great Civilization, not knowing would be normal.

As for the specific information about the Golden War Crab Civilization, why would a Great Civilization care about that?

It's like you wouldn't care what species of ant lives downstairs; you'd just call them all ants.

"You're right."

"Our Golden War Crab Civilization is indeed a Civilization that excels in Mental Energy!"

"Your advantage is completely gone before me!"

Chen Du cooperated, a hint of arrogance in his words. Facing the Great Civilization and his recently deceased companion, there was no fear in his eyes.

His previous actions were merely to cooperate with the opponent's performance. Chen Du knew that even the most wondrous Mental Energy attacks required Mental Energy Rank as a foundation.

His Mental Energy Rank was Rank 33, so he naturally wasn't afraid of the opponent's methods.

With a Life Strength Rank of 23 and a Mental Energy Rank of 33, calling him a monster would be an understatement.

This was something that even the Big Eye Civilization, which naturally excelled in Mental Energy, could not come close to, or simply could not achieve.

Therefore, Chen Du didn't need to shed his alien disguise at all; he could just confront it head-on.

Valkis was a Great Civilization. To obtain information from him, Chen Du had to make him feel like he was facing death.

The previous arrogant remarks were a smoke bomb released by Chen Du.

It would make Valkis lower his guard slightly against him. Although both were Rank 25 Advanced Sky Soaring Warriors, how could a Rank 25 of a Great Civilization consider a Rank 25 of a Small Civilization an opponent?

Moreover, the opponent was once a Genius who achieved five consecutive victories in the Land of Finality. His combat power was definitely extraordinary.

Chen Du's purpose in performing this way was to exploit the opponent's carelessness as much as possible to gain a slight advantage in the upcoming battle.

The reason for such caution was the information asymmetry between the two sides.

Chen Du knew that Valkis had achieved five consecutive victories in the Land of Finality.

That place was too strange. To some extent, the Land of Finality was very similar to the Crystal Space.

They both involved gaining rewards through one's own efforts.

And these rewards were extremely exaggerated.

Take the Locking Spear he used earlier, for example; to some extent, it could even be considered a conceptual Divine Power-like item.

Chen Du didn't know what rewards this Valkis had obtained back then. The opponent's final ranking was 3000, while his was 2998. The rewards they received should be roughly similar.

With Chen Du's current strength, he was naturally not afraid of Valkis, this Big Eye Alien, but rather afraid that he would pull out some strange item and instantly kill him.

After all, the rewards from the Land of Finality could only be described as unfathomable.

"You must be the most Genius Advanced Sky Soaring Warrior in your Golden War Crab Civilization, right? Perhaps even the youngest Advanced Sky Soaring Warrior in your Civilization's history, right?"

"I have to say, you do have some strength."

"But if you think that just having good Mental Energy allows you to contend with our Big Eye Civilization, then you underestimate our Big Eye Civilization too much."

"I will now let you know the terrifying aspect of a Great Civilization!"

After Valkis finished speaking, the eight long legs beneath his massive head sprung out with a "bang" after accumulating power like springs.

He shot towards Chen Du like a missile.

As he approached, Valkis's eight long legs instantly spread open, like a fishing net, pouncing towards Chen Du.

It seemed he intended to destroy his opponent with the purest form of power.

Chen Du remained calm. Just as the opponent's attack was about to hit him, he called out:

"Valkis!"

What!

Valkis's pupils suddenly constricted as if he had heard something incredible.

How could he know my name!?

It wasn't strange for a Small Civilization to recognize a Great Civilization, as they had dominated for many years, passed down through generations.

But to be able to say his name was truly too exaggerated.

Valkis was not visiting the Golden Bitter Sea for the first time, but he had always flown over it before.

This was his first time entering the water.

There was no way the opponent could know his name!

Chen Du naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. He keenly exploited this advantage, quickly extended his crab pincers, and with a "crunch," before the opponent could react, he severed two of Valkis's long legs!

"How do you know my name?"

"Who exactly are you!?"

Valkis instantly pulled away, a hint of panic in his voice.

This reaction was exactly as Chen Du expected. If, during a battle with an opponent, the opponent suddenly called out Chen Du's name, he would also react similarly.

"Who am I? I am the number one Prodigy of our Civilization!"

"Lin Cheng!"

"The Big Eye Civilization is nothing more than this!"

Chen Du shouted, continuing his fierce assault. He wanted to press his advantage and push the opponent into a critically wounded state.

Unfortunately, Valkis was also no ordinary person. After a brief moment of surprise, he quickly calmed down and stabilized the situation.

Unlike the Hunter Civilization, the Big Eye Civilization's legs were not vital parts like the Hunter Civilization's barbs.

Losing two legs had no impact on close-quarters combat.

"Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!"

The two exchanged millions of blows in a short period, the surrounding seawater surged wildly, killing countless rotten fish and shrimp.

Chen Du also used this period of combat to ascertain the opponent's true strength.

Eight Secret Chambers, Rank 25 Life Strength, Rank 28 Mental Energy, with a Martial Skill Control level of 36%.

Under the enhancement of the Eight Secret Chambers, the Rank 25 Valkis would have slightly higher base strength than Chen Du.

Chen Du seized the opportunity, pretending to be outmatched, and was forced to retreat step by step.

"Die, number one Prodigy!"

Just as Valkis thought he was about to finish off his opponent, Chen Du, who had appeared to be in a desperate state a second ago, suddenly flashed a cold light in his eyes, and his Martial Skill Control, at 47%, erupted with full force!
