Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army - Chapter 440: ENRAGED!

The rejection from the universe was painful, Tasha felt her body being squeezed by every single atom it came into contact with, she looked at Yunan saw that the rejection he received was getting stronger by the second.

Being restrained, Tasha could only accept her fate, she was no longer helpful, so she hid in Dreamscape, waiting for what happens next.

Yunan allowed Tasha to hide, it would be very inconvenient if he lost his assistant this early in the journey, he continued to resist the universe, facing harsher rejection with each passing moment, he unleashed the full power of his Effort divinity, allowing it to consume every energy in reach, gods, and divinities we digested fast and the energy was used to power up the divinity.

The rejection of the universe was followed by a tide of figures flooding towards Yunan, all led by their creator, this one seemed to want to use this universe as a stepping stone to reach higher levels, he was very confident with his creation, a universe full of soldier gods.

“You have some guts invading even before the culling started, but you chose the wrong universe, submit and serve me, or die, your choice” as the voice of the creator of this militarized universe echoed, Yunan could feel the Fate of the universe trying to devour his two little fragments.

Yunan scoffed, and kept killing left and right, he did not give an answer but just kept absorbing the energies of this universe, each god he absorbed was a portion of the laws of the universe, as long as he began to understand these bits, he would no longer fear the creator’s influence, nor would the universe reject him as much.

The automated battle mode was engaged, Yunan had become a god of killing, he evaded and defended with the narrowest of margins, each swing brought him more energy to replenish his reserves, and with each divinity he absorbed, the rejection of the universe got weaker.

As for the mental power not used for battle, it was focused on analysing the laws of this strange universe, to Yunan, a dreamless universe was nearly incomprehensible, he would accept it if the universe was only home to mechanical life forms, but this universe was entirely biological.

Yunan suddenly felt like he understood something, this universe had no technology that the creator did not deem to be useful, thus the lack of mechanical constructs, speaking of mechanicals, this universe was as good as any to try out the improved mechs.

Yunan summoned the battle fortress and gave the artificial intelligence and the genie one order, “evolve”, the two did not waste a single moment, they immediately launched the smaller mechs and let the fortress start bombarding large swathes of gods that were surrounding Yunan.

Neither the genie nor the A.I were concerned about the wasted energy, they were using the dead gods and the harvested divinities as research materials, the order was to evolve, hence the seemingly irresponsible way of attack.

The creator of the militarized universe was having a hard time believing what he was seeing, the invader did not seem to run out of energy, as for the fortress and the metal golems that were killing his soldiers, he assumed they would run out of steam soon, he very much looked forward to incorporate their technology into his army.

To outsiders, the way Yunan absorbed every last piece of his foes was strange, even divinities that were related to consumption were not as capable as Effort in refining energy, it was known that absorbing too much would harm the person, maybe even cause a change in their divinity.

The creator also thought so, it was a desperate way to regain energy when fighting a horde, but the side effects were not worth it.

From within Dreamscape, Tasha was suddenly flooded with the understanding of strange laws, she did not reject the forced enlightenment, it was Yunan telling her to come out and fight, she would now face only half the rejection from the universe as of this moment, so she came out from hiding.

To her surprise, a few years had already passed, most of the cannon fodder gods were dead, the creator was fighting Yunan head-on. On his back was a legion of gods, all of them on the level of over-gods, all of them focused on fighting Yunan and supporting their creator, meanwhile the fortress and the mechs were nowhere to be seen.

Tasha knew better than to join the fight, her job was to infiltrate the universe and try to get a grasp on the location of its Fate, her divinities were just enough to let her move away unseen, especially with Yunan making a sudden show of power to the enemy.

“Do you still wish to have me serve you?” Yunan threw a taunt at his enemy, he did not forget to sidestep him and harvest a few more gods, he made it sound like he was having fun, he was having far less pressure since the creator had joined the fight, and he made sure it was known.

Being swarmed by suicidal soldiers was one thing, but fighting someone who had ambition was entirely another, even with an army as numerous as the sands, an ambitious man would still fight below his capacity in fear of death.

“I.WANT.YOU.TO.DIE!” the enraged creator was doing his best to harm Yunan, syphoning the power of the universe to fuel himself, unbeknownst to him, each strike and spell he cast was absorbed by Effort instead of dispersing naturally, as for his followers, it was about time for them to take over, he was getting ready to retreat to safe distance to rest and change his plans.

Yunan felt very lucky, there was an enormous amount of food coming to his mouth each moment, he could also digest it all of it fast enough thanks to the constant battle, although Yunan was in a martial realm that was nearing the limits, he still found that it felt good to progress under duress.
