Chapter 277: Chapter 48: The Death of Damian! Athena’s Pursuit! Tier Eleven Limit Breaking! (Part 2)

The human before them, the one who destroyed Silver Beach Island, seemed so strong he was beyond Alpha Star’s limits!

Instinctively, they wanted to run.

But...

"Too late!"

Yu Jin laughed heartily, his figure blurring where he stood.

Shua shua——

One second later.

Eighteen identical Yu Jin figures stepped out from the void, coming from all directions.

Damian and his army of a million were, at this moment, single-handedly surrounded by Yu Jin!

Boom——

Rumble——!

Yu Jin didn’t waste another word.

He—and his seventeen clones—attacked simultaneously!

...

...

Hua——

Crash——

Northern Continent, West Coast.

Athena stared at the wildly surging ocean before her, confusion intensifying on her refined face.

"What’s going on?"

Athena’s brows knit tightly.

By now, it’s been two and a half days since she logged onto the Alpha Star server.

For these two and a half days, her seaside town—humanity’s last territory—hadn’t seen a single Fallen One.

Instead...

The outer seas of the Black Sea were stormy, waves churning wildly.

As if...

There was a big battle happening inside the Black Sea.

This abnormal scene gave Athena an inexplicable sense of familiarity deep in her heart.

The last time things went so off-script in Wasteland OL, it was in Venus OL—and because of Yu Jin...

Once the thought popped up in Athena’s mind, she couldn’t shake it off.

She gazed toward the distant, pitch-black waters, her eyes gradually firming, until finally she decided.

"Leave the town, move into the depths of the Black Sea!"

As soon as she said this—

Don Flack and the others exchanged bewildered glances.

"Miss Athena!"

"This town is the territory we’re supposed to defend..."

"The Black Sea is vast and unknown; if we plunge in recklessly, we might not return. If our territory gets invaded by Fallen Ones in the meantime, we’ll fail this mission for sure!"

Don Flack kept analyzing, but Athena stuck to her gut, unwavering.

An hour later.

Whoosh——

Whoosh whoosh——

Figures shot up from the coastline.

The wounded old players in town—missing arms or legs—were all absolutely baffled.

"Wait, what..."

"Why’d they leave?"

"Not defending the territory anymore?"

"Just what is this big boss actually up to?"

...

Black Sea, outskirts.

Solo Island—this was the island closest to the shore.

At one time, tens of thousands of Fallen Ones dwelled here, with three thousand stationed troops.

But now?

When Athena and her ten thousand team members arrived, what they saw was barren and dead.

On the island—there wasn’t a single trace of life.

Instead, it was covered in countless Thunder markings, nearly puncturing the whole island.

Among the ruins, charred, severed limbs were faintly visible...

Those were all corpses of Fallen Ones.

"This, this..."

Don Flack and the others stared agape, speechless.

Athena, meanwhile, her angelic face flooded with delight.

"Is it really him?"

Athena distinctly remembered: one of Yu Jin’s attributes was Thunder!

When she said this—

Don Flack and the others froze, then realized.

The ’him’ in Athena’s mouth could only mean Yu Jin.

But...

"Isn’t that a stretch?"

"Is Miss Athena so obsessed with finding Yu Jin she’s lost her mind?"

They didn’t dare say it aloud, but the thought crept in anyway.

"Keep moving!"

Athena’s soft command was barely out when her figure streaked toward deeper waters.

"Ay——"

Don Flack glanced at Ah Long following along, sighed deeply.

Back then, he used to think Yu Jin was just an ordinary player.

Turned out?

Miss Athena’s nearly gone bonkers looking for him.

"If Yu Jin shows up on Alpha Star, I’ll rip my head off and kick it like a ball!"

Don Flack shook his head, leading his ten thousand team members after Athena.

...

Outskirts of Black Sea, Xueji Island.

A snowy island in name, but now completely drowned in magma.

The molten lava had cooled, but in the volcanic ash, the charred remains of Fallen Ones were still clearly visible.

"This, this..."

Don Flack had lost all confidence from Solo Island.

This was the fourth island they’d arrived at.

Xueji Island looked exactly like the previous three.

First—Solo Island, destroyed by Thunder.

Second—Haki Island, destroyed by Storm.

Third—Samo Island, destroyed by Mechanical.

Fourth—Xueji Island, judging by this, destroyed by Magma and Fire.

And coincidentally...

The attributes causing all four island extinctions—Yu Jin had them all.

Especially at Haki Island, when Ah Long spotted some leftover Mechanical Beetle carcasses, he instantly called out ’Lord Yu Jin’...

If Ah Long was like this, Athena’s reaction was even more intense.

This daughter of Ophelia Federation’s chief councilor was now beyond ecstatic.

"Yu Jin, Yu Jin!"

She kept murmuring that name over and over.

Then, leading her team, deeper into the ocean!

...

Silver Beach Island.

Yu Jin stood in midair, calmly looking down.

The black sea below was strewn with limbs and remains.

The silver beaches, too, had shifted from silver to deep purple-black.

Fallen Ones’ blood—at least here on Alpha Star—wasn’t bright red, but dark purple.

"Not nearly enough fun."

"What a shame..."

Yu Jin shook his head, sighing lightly.

His gaze fell to Silver Beach Island’s center.

There, compared to before, was now an enormous crater hundreds of meters across.

At the bottom—Damian, unrecognizable.

His life force had completely vanished.

Baldy and the other generals had already been sent to God by Yu Jin before Damian.

[With your low-dimensional ant’s body, you have killed ’Eleventh Rank Unrestricted Fallen—Damian Charlotte’ across tiers!]

[Such a feat—overturning the order—shakes the Star River!]

[Wasteland Source Points +1 billion!]

[You obtained resource: Tier Eleven Limit-Breaking Stone *1]

[...]

Yu Jin’s system panel flashed with reward messages.

Thanks to the system’s ’Void Plus Three’ mechanism, Damian was judged to be an Eleventh Rank Unrestricted Fallen.

So Yu Jin received his biggest batch of Source Points so far.

One billion!

Both previous times in Wasteland OL, Mars OL, and Venus OL together didn’t add up to this much!

"Good man, seriously good man!"

Yu Jin couldn’t stop praising, glancing at his Source Points balance.

[Wasteland Source Points: 1.8 billion]

Logically, destroying so many islands should yield way more Source Points.

If anything, blame the system’s repeat reward mechanism triggering again.

No matter how many of Damian’s one million Fallen Ones Yu Jin wiped out, he got pitifully few Source Points—only Baldy and other High-Tier Unlimiters unlocked Source Point rewards; the rest could only provide Limit-Breaking Stones.

The Limit-Breaking Stones Yu Jin amassed now broke the million-mark too, up to a terrifying three million plus.

Crunch——!

Yu Jin instantly took out the fresh Tier Eleven Limit-Breaking Stone and bit down on it.

Boom——!

Yu Jin’s aura soared, engulfing all of Black Sea.

Even Alpha Star began shaking violently at this moment.

[You used ’Tier Eleven Limit-Breaking Stone’!]

[You’ve unlocked your limits!]

[Your base Unlimited Value has risen to 10%!]

[Your current Unlimited Value: 11% (10%+1%)]

[...]

"My hack keeps getting more insane."

Even Yu Jin himself couldn’t help sighing at this.

At 11% unlimited value, his Energy Value went up: 250 million × 0.1 × 11% = 2.75 million.

Compared to his earlier 8% limit, that’s a 750,000 boost overall.

By High-dimensional Civilization players’ Unlimiters’ calculations, Yu Jin now equals a 27.5% Unlimiter...

"At these values, shouldn’t be too hard to smack Damian’s old man—the Alpha Star Fallen Governor, right?"

Yu Jin stared at Damian’s corpse in the crater, rubbing his chin.

Before killing him, Yu Jin had made sure the guy called for help from his dad.

Even helpfully had Damian mention ’Silver Beach Island’ as the location.

Right now.

Ten thousand miles from Silver Beach Island.

Damian’s father, Alpha Planet Governor, Seneca Charlotte, was hovering above Central Island.

He watched the swirling waves around Central Island, felt the violent fluctuations in Alpha Star server rules, recalled Damian’s last ’Father, help me’ cry.

This instant.

What washed over him wasn’t the agony of losing a son.

But...

"Fuck, am I sweating?"

Seneca wiped his forehead.

Who knows how long passed.

He finally made up his mind...

"Alpha Star server has a human invader exceeding the server’s limits!"

"Requesting Federation support!"
