Orpheus, who has always been expressionless and like a delicate doll, has finally made a new move.
She did not act immediately.
Instead, she moved her slender, fair wrist, making a soft "crack" sound.
This action is very small and inconspicuous.
But to top-tier powerhouses like Sazex and Azazel, it was nothing short of a prelude to the Big Bang!
"Hey, hey, hey...you're kidding, right?"
Cold sweat instantly streamed down Azazel's forehead. He instinctively took a half-step back, his voice hoarse.
"She...she seems to be serious."
“It’s not just a feeling, Azazel.”
Sazex's expression was more solemn than ever before. He stared intently at the petite figure, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth.
"This power that is gathering... is from a completely different dimension than that move just now!"
If we were to say what the first move was, it was a stone that Orpheus casually tossed out.
Now, what she's about to throw out is a planet that's ready to destroy the entire solar system!
Even the usually unruly Vali Lucifer was speechless at this moment. The energy fluctuations of the white dragon emperor's wings behind him became chaotic, an instinctive tremor originating from the depths of Albion's soul.
Even Tianlong felt his own insignificance when faced with true "infinity".
“Boss…” Drag nervously grabbed Zhou Ye’s clothes. Although she had confidence in Zhou Ye, the pressure from Orpheus in front of her was too great.
That is the reverence for the origin of the world etched deep within the bloodline of the dragon race.
Zhou Ye acted as if nothing had happened, patting Dreig on the head and even having the leisure to make sarcastic remarks.
"Relax, relax, calm down."
"It's just that you're taking it a little too seriously, don't make it sound like the end of the world."
He spoke casually, but in his heart he was already on high alert.
The power of the Law of Reason is frantically analyzing the invisible, gathering terrifying factors in the surrounding space.
The conclusion is... it cannot be fully analyzed!
This force has transcended the scope of conventional physics and energy laws, touching upon a more fundamental realm of "concepts".
In this suffocating atmosphere, Orpheus spoke.
She looked at Zhou Ye, and for the first time, his figure was clearly reflected in her empty purple pupils.
"you."
"very funny."
These three words carry more weight than any previous threat.
This means that for the first time, the Infinite Dragon God has become interested in an existence other than Draig.
At first, she only wanted to take Drag away.
Now, she has found a "toy" that is even more interesting than Draig.
The words fell.
Orpheus raised his hand, pointed his index finger at Zhou Ye, and gently tapped him.
There was no earth-shattering momentum.
There was no earth-shattering beam of light.
A jet-black, extremely thin snake, seemingly composed of pure "nothingness," appeared out of thin air from her fingertips.
The moment the snake appeared, the surrounding space, time, light, and everything else seemed to be silently "dissolved" as if they had been exposed to concentrated sulfuric acid.
The path it traversed left no trace, only an absolute void where even the concept of "nothingness" did not exist.
That is the ultimate attack that can completely erase any existence from the causal level!
"Oh no!" Azazel cried out.
Sazex and Michael simultaneously unleashed their power, firmly protecting Rias and the others behind them.
They knew that if the black snake even grazed them, they would vanish from this world forever, leaving no trace of their existence.
"Well done!"
Instead of being afraid, Zhou Ye grinned.
Faced with this second move that could wipe out everything, he finally abandoned his leisurely pose with one hand in his pocket.
He stepped forward, taking half a step.
Bring your hands together in front of your chest, then pull them outwards sharply!
Om-!
A barrier, shimmering with an icy blue light and composed of countless intricate geometric patterns, resembling a magic circle, instantly unfolded before him!
The power of the Law of Reason, activated at full capacity!
Analysis! Construction! Redefinition!
The black serpent, representing "infinity" and "nothingness," crashed violently into the ice-blue geometric barrier!
There was no explosion.
There was no shockwave.
Only a silent, higher-level conceptual confrontation!
The black snake was frantically "devouring" and "erasing" the structure of the barrier.
Meanwhile, the barrier is frantically "analyzing" the essence of the black snake with efficiency exceeding the speed of light, and "constructing" the opposite concept of "absolute existence" to counteract it!
Click... click...
Fine cracks began to appear on the ice-blue barrier.
Beneath Zhou Ye's feet, the earth crumbled inch by inch, turning into dust.
He single-handedly withstood a serious blow from the Infinite Dragon God!
"Freeze! Freeze!"
Zhou Ye roared, veins bulging on his arms, pushing the power of the Herrscher to its limit.
The ice-blue geometric pattern shone brightly, and countless data streams flowed across the barrier like waterfalls, freezing the ever-advancing black snake in mid-air!
Then, Zhou Ye clenched his fists tightly!
"collapse!"
The cracked, ice-blue barrier, along with the frozen black snake, shattered with a deafening roar!
It transformed into countless points of light, a mix of icy blue and jet black, that danced in the air before slowly dissipating.
The second move.
broken!
Zhou Ye took a breath, shook his slightly numb arm, and still had that smug smile on his face.
He looked up at the still expressionless Gothic Lolita.
"The second move was pretty good, quite interesting."
"However, it seems you've lost half a move."
He pointed to the half-step he had just taken.
"According to the agreement, you have to let me move one step for you to win."
"I only moved half a step, which is practically the same as not moving at all."
Audience: "..."
Everyone looked at Zhou Ye with an expression of utter disbelief, as if he were a god.
Brother!
That was a serious strike from the Infinite Dragon God!
If you've taken it on, shouldn't you be putting on the airs of a peerless master?
Why are you still worrying about this half-step issue?
This style of painting is wrong!
"Pfft."
Draig couldn't help but laugh, all the tension from before vanishing.
As expected of the boss, he never forgets to take advantage of others.
However, to everyone's surprise, it happened.
Orpheus was not angry after hearing Zhou Ye's almost shameless words.
For the first time, a look of confusion appeared on her perpetually unchanging, delicate face.
She tilted her head and looked at Zhou Ye, seemingly trying to understand the concept of "rounding," which was completely unfamiliar to her.
Then, her purple pupils shone brighter than ever before.
That's the kind of elation you get when you discover a new continent or find a fun toy you've never seen before.
She looked at Zhou Ye and, in her ethereal and calm tone, asked a question that silenced the entire world.
"Who exactly are you?"
Chapter 237 Third Move
When Orpheus asked him a probing question, Zhou Ye grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.
"I?"
