Chapter 555: Lifting Restrictions On Evolution

“Very well.”
Watson nodded after hearing Beta’s words. To be honest, he had never heard of such an odd request to be defeated in a duel.
The corners of his mouth curled upward. Watson extended a finger toward Beta and flicked it lightly.
“Molecular acceleration.”
A tiny light spot appeared on his fingertip and quickly developed into a thick and lengthy light pillar that was difficult to perceive with the naked eye. The massive light pillar sped through the air, straight toward Beta. Wherever the light pillar passed, whether it was the air or the energy elements in the air, they boiled. Even space fractured, leaving a vast and deep black path behind.
The human chess piece had bestowed Watson with the gift of molecular acceleration. It was a profound origin law that only a sovereign-tier elite could comprehend. Some might say that Watson was in a circumstance where he did not release the wheel of reversal to summon his older self, and that move was the most powerful attack he could unleash.
He would not hold back because Beta had requested to be defeated by him.
In the blink of an eye, the blazing pillar of light appeared in front of Beta. He scowled anxiously, whether it was due to the rapidity of the strike or the power contained within it. He raised his arm unconsciously. “Three Divine Kingdoms!”
The three skeletons that surrounded him moved in front of him right away. They controlled their divine kingdoms to stack together. The three divine kingdoms of various shapes stacked up to make the world’s greatest barrier, but it could not take a single hit from the light beam formed by molecular acceleration. It was pierced through the middle and exploded into brilliant flames.
The explosion shattered the three skeletons because it was too powerful. When Beta saw that scene, his eyes narrowed. “The God of Death’s armor!”
As his voice became louder, the massive white bone armor on his body grew larger. It thickened and became heavier. It even had bone spikes developing on it. It was encircled by black gas, giving it a frightening appearance.
However, those changes were still not enough to form a defense against the molecular acceleration that pushed all the energy factors within the attack range into infinite motion. That would produce a surging power, and in front of that power, even a starlight-tier defense would be penetrated, let alone Beta.
Upon touching the beam of light formed by the molecular acceleration, the black fog on Beta’s body was the first to melt. That black fog was the power of death. Typically, if someone touched it, it would instantly kill the enemy, but it had been accelerated and assimilated by the molecules at that time. It burst into endless light and heat. Then, the white bone armor on Beta’s body disappeared even faster. In less than a second, it melted completely, and Beta’s body also vaporized, turning into a wisp of green smoke and dissipating on the spot.
As Beta’s body disappeared, the light beam formed by the accelerated molecules bombarded further away. A deep ravine appeared on the ground as the beam of light shot toward the endless boundary.
Withdrawing his finger, Watson blew at the spiraling green smoke coming out of his finger, “As expected of sovereign-tier power. My current peak diamond-tier strength is somewhat unable to withstand it, but have I gone too far?”
He raised his head to look at the hole in the nine layers of starlight barrier in front of him. He secretly clicked his tongue. He had only seen Nia and his future self use molecular acceleration before, so he did not have such a deep impression of it. Only when he used that power did he understand how powerful it was.
Molecular acceleration could turn even an ordinary fireball into a powerful move comparable to a divine kingdom, not to mention that he had just flicked Beta with the full strength of a peak diamond-tier elite.
At that moment, after he had destroyed Beta with one move, everyone who saw that scene fell into shock.
In the planetary fortress, Fawkes had been holding onto his hair and pacing anxiously at the gate. When he saw Watson use his finger to destroy Beta, he let go of the hand holding onto his hair, and the anxious expression on his face was replaced by shock.
“He had killed the intruder in one go. Is His Highness Watson really that strong?”
The elf intruder had killed over a thousand planetary fortress soldiers, and he had even used his giant skeletal arms to pull the planetary fortress back forcefully. Such strength had already made him feel terrified; he felt like he was unbeatable, but Watson’s performance was even more bizarre.
“Is that Watson’s strength? He defeated Beta with just one strike. How is that possible?”
In the other direction, Delta stared blankly at Watson, who was hovering in mid-air. Her lips moved, appearing dry.
“Now you know that I’m not deceiving you. Your army is nothing against Watson. We can only win if we join forces,” King Landhar III said with a deep expression.
Taking a deep breath, Delta recovered from her shock and said, “I have to say that Watson’s attack is indeed powerful. Even if Beta and I were to attack together, he would probably kill us instantly! However, Beta can’t be killed, not after consuming the Spring of Life water. As long as he consumes Watson’s stamina, there is still a chance of winning. Furthermore, he has a trump card.”
“The trump card you mentioned, is it the elven race chess piece?”
“How did you know—”
Delta subconsciously exclaimed. Halfway through her words, she sensed something was wrong and hurriedly shut her mouth.
King Landhar III looked like he knew everything. “It seems like my guess is correct. The elves still have the chess pieces passed down from ancient times. If it weren’t for the fact that the human kingdoms have always been in wars since the third era, and it’s difficult to unify them, the human chess pieces would not have been lost! Of course, we don’t need any race chess pieces now because the human chess pieces are with Watson, and they are complete. ”
“He has race chess pieces on him?”
Delta inhaled a breath of cold air. She did not understand why King Landhar III said they could not defeat Watson. It would be different if Watson had the human race chess pieces.
She understood how powerful the race chess piece was after it had given her the ability to evolve. At the same time, she realized why King Landhar III wanted to join forces with the elves to deal with Watson. He must have coveted the chess pieces.
“Do you still think that your companion can defeat Watson? It’s time for you to change your mind and cooperate with me. ”
“Even if Watson has a human chess piece, Beta might not lose because he is an unreasonable madman.” Delta hesitated in the face of King Landhar III’s bewitching words. Then, she shook her head and looked at the sky, where Beta had just disappeared. It seemed like a large cloud of black fog had emerged.
“His Highness Watson has defeated the invaders. We are safe.”
“Praise the great Young Master Watson. As expected, in front of a brilliant man comparable to a god, all the enemies can not withstand a single blow. ”
In the city, many people also saw Watson’s attack. The residents were filled with excitement, and the devout believers knelt respectfully and prayed to Watson.
Then, they suddenly pointed at the sky.
“Look! What’s that?”
Beta, who had vanished, reappeared with the help of the black fog. However, he seemed different from before. The body covered by the armor had utterly lost its flesh and had turned into part of the black fog. The black fog had no form, but it emitted an even stronger aura of death. The armor that bound the black fog together was bone-shaped, and even Beta’s face had a strange rune mask drawn with bright red blood.
Two crossed sickles were in the middle of the rune mask, flickering with a flirtatious color. A hoarse and dry voice came from under Beta’s mask when his body reappeared.
“Incredible power, Watson.. I have to admit that you are a worthy opponent! If I were in my usual state, I would definitely not be your opponent, but now that I am entirely different from before, the battle has just begun. ”
