Chapter 710 Too much pretense gets boring.
[Ding~! White Tiger Divine Might skill proficiency +690 million! (6666 million/10 billion)]
As Zeus's head shattered, his severely wounded but still vibrant body fell completely still.
A system notification sounded in Cang Nian's mind, which made him completely relax.
At the same time, the effect of the [Time Reappearance] skill faded, and Cangnian returned to a state where his attributes were halved.
Cangnian was already used to this sense of disparity. He used the spatial imprint to open the storage space and put Zeus's corpse inside first.
"This guy is much heavier than other evolved creatures of the same size. It seems he has quite a few physical enhancement abilities, which is why he has been able to strengthen his muscles and bones to this level..."
After looking at the White Tiger Divine Might skill, which had gained nearly seven million proficiency points in one go, Cangnian sighed slightly.
He had previously told Zeus that its physical strength was terrifying, and that if it had the courage to confront him head-on, it could potentially hold out until the effect of Tiger Girl's [Time Rewind] ended. This was not a lie.
However, unexpectedly, these words became a blow to Zeus's spirit, causing him to completely give up resisting.
Otherwise, if Ermihu's superpower were activated, causing its attributes to surge exponentially while it was on the verge of death, it could really cause some trouble.
However, Cangnian is not without other trump cards.
If I can't suppress Zeus in my current state, I can have Tiger Mom summon my phantom, take control of the phantom, and then perform a spatial displacement.
Although the main body used the second-level overlimit burst, it could not be used again on the phantom.
However, it can also unleash an even more powerful third-level overlimit burst.
The first, second, and third levels of over-limit burst have independent cooldown times.
Of course, this is a last resort.
Moreover, this move increases the attribute by 27 times, which, combined with the original 50% attribute, is 14 times the base attribute!
Without the acceleration that makes a tiger have wings, without the explosive flash of the Cloud Ladder, and without the attack boost of Mountain Splitting, the actual power difference between taking over the phantom and using the third-level overlimit burst and using the main body to use the second-level overlimit burst is not that terrifying.
But none of these are the most important.
Most importantly, without the systematic White Tiger Divine Might skill to suppress non-melee attacks within a ten-body-length radius around him, it's highly questionable whether even the strongest attacks could land squarely on Zeus.
Therefore, the current strategic decision is the best one after comprehensive consideration.
Fortunately, everything went very smoothly. Zeus, a hidden threat that had been lurking in the capital for who knows how long, was eliminated the moment he was exposed.
It wasn't that Cangnian wanted to be a hero; it was just that when Ye Dingjiang took advantage of Zeus's ignorance of the magic weapon's properties to suddenly attack and suppress it, Cangnian didn't "join the group" and everyone worked together to kill Zeus.
At that time, Zeus was on the ground and was being besieged by a group of powerful figures from the capital. If he had activated the [Time Replay] that Tiger Sister had left in his body, he definitely wouldn't have been able to control the power that was far beyond his control. Even if he could kill Zeus, many people would probably die because of being so close to such a high-level battle.
Although the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom has Little Sable's shared ethereal skill, they should not be affected.
But the situation is less certain for the powerful figures in the capital.
He had a falling out with the capital, but at least Yang Tianhuang and Kong Xuanzhe were completely neutral during the battle in the Forbidden City. He did not interfere and at most shielded the high-ranking officials of the Dragon Kingdom from the aftermath.
As for the other fifth-tier experts in the capital, they had no grudges against him. They had even fought side by side in the Demon City. If possible, Cang Nian would try to resolve the battle with as few casualties as possible.
As he pondered this, Cangnian returned to the ground and came to the side of the members of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom, as well as the group of powerful figures from the capital city that Little Sable had brought back from Shanghai.
"Your Majesty! How did it go? Did you kill that lion dog?"
Upon seeing Cangnian return, the little sable quickly asked.
Ye Dingjiang, Yang Tianhuang, Kong Xuanzhe, and other powerful figures from the capital all looked at Cangnian with expectant expressions.
"That's right, Zeus has been killed by me."
Cangnian naturally didn't hide anything from this and nodded in agreement.
"Long live the King! I knew the King was the best!"
Upon hearing the news, the little sable immediately jumped up and cheered.
Meanwhile, Tiger Dad and his men remained quite calm within the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom.
They were well aware of Cang Nian's strength.
Even though Zeus devoured many evolved creatures and plundered their abilities, Cang Nian, who seemed to have only one ability, was definitely stronger than Zeus!
Cang Nian has always been good at creating miracles.
When miracles happen too often, people get used to them.
The powerful figures in the capital were astonished by this.
They had experienced firsthand how powerful Zeus was when Ye Dingjiang used the Imperial Seal to create an opportunity for them to attack together.
Although it was still at the fifth rank, that monster seemed to be on a completely different level from them. Even with all their combined strength, they couldn't break through Zeus's skin.
It should be noted that among them are peak fifth-tier experts like Yang Tianhuang and Kong Xuanzhe. Moreover, they are not just ordinary peak fifth-tier experts. If we take the average level of fifth-tier experts of the same tier as the benchmark, both of them have the ability to fight beyond their tier.
In other words, although they were only at the peak of the fifth rank, their combat power had already reached the perfection of the fifth rank, but even so, they were unable to break through Zeus's defense.
The difference between them is obvious.
And this terrifying Zeus, who was arrogantly dominating Cang Nian at the beginning, was killed shortly after leaving sight.
What was commonplace to the members of the Northeast Allied Army of the Dragon Kingdom was inconceivable to the powerful figures in the capital.
"Zeus has been dealt with, so the next step is to wipe out all the fifth-tier Zerg."
If you're not going, then leave everything to me.
"I want all the spoils!"
Seeing everyone's astonishment, Cangnian casually spoke up.
He's been through this kind of thing far too many times.
At first, I felt like I had made a big show of myself, and I was secretly pleased with the amazed looks from others.
But after experiencing it too many times, it loses its appeal.
Rather than the emotional value of pretentious posturing, Cang Nian prefers something more practical.
So many Tier 5 Zerg, even though he was still using the halved attribute state after the second-level overlimit burst, those Tier 5 Zerg who had just entered Tier 5 and had little combat experience were easy for him to kill.
By shrinking his size, he can gain some skill proficiency and a good amount of food!
