Today's drop rate was exceptionally high once again.
Bochang had noticed that whenever encountering critical situations, the occurrence of "Dating Options" significantly increased.
This time, there were only two options:
Random ItemMental Energy Boost
After a moment of hesitation, Bochang chose the second option.
Enhancing his mental energy remained crucial. The usage limits for both the Invisible Hand and Sheep Talisman powers heavily depended on his base mental energy level. The random item seemed less appealing in comparison.
"Option Two."
"If you're bewitched, let me knock some sense into you."
With those words, Bochang released the Vow Spear and began raining punches upon Cocolia.
Initially attempting to dodge, she failed to evade successfully.
The impact of Bochang's punch shook her soul, leaving her momentarily stunned and unable to recover quickly.
Bochang continued with another barrage of blows.
Stomach, chest, shoulders, thighs... practically every accessible spot received a solid punch from Bochang.
Each strike unleashed ample power from the Sheep Talisman, akin to unraveling a cocoon thread by thread.
Gradually, he began stripping away the remnants of Stellaron's power from her body.
As if sensing imminent danger, Cocolia's strength suddenly surged, creating a Frostwave that swept around her like a whirlwind. It froze and shattered the Invisible Hand, forcing Bochang to swiftly dodge with all his might, narrowly avoiding being immobilized himself.
Due to his connection with the Invisible Hand, its destruction had some impact on Bochang, albeit minimal.
"The power of Stellaron is with me! You...are merely clinging to the remnants of the old world before its inevitable collapse!"
Dazed by the blows, Cocolia's mind was consumed by anger; she solely focused on defeating Bochang to avenge her humiliation.
The Frostwave swirling around Cocolia reached extreme temperatures, making Bochang momentarily hesitant to approach.
"Tsk... The System hasn't signaled yet, so it seems...I need to continue influencing her." Bochang clenched his fists, "With the Dragon Talisman's power, perhaps I can withstand this Frostwave head-on."
He stopped concentrating the Dragon Talisman's force at a single point and instead attempted to distribute it throughout his entire body.
Bochang attempted to distribute this power evenly throughout his body. Without obtaining the Sheep Talisman, he wouldn't have been able to exert such precise control over the Dragon Talisman's energy. However, with the Sheep Talisman's enhancement:
His mastery over the Dragon Talisman significantly improved.
"Dragon Talisman... Activate First Notch Power!"
A burst of flames emerged from Bochang's body, rapidly spreading and enveloping him entirely.
The previously frigid weather now held no challenge for Bochang.
Heat... He felt intensely hot, as if wanting to tear apart everything before him to quench his fiery rage.
Crackling sounds continuously filled his ears.
Without waiting for Cocolia to finish speaking, Bochang launched his second attack.
A blazing figure charged towards her.
As Cocolia witnessed her opponent disregarding the surrounding Frostwave, waves of impotent fury mixed with growing fear surged within her. She had a sense that if she continued taking these blows,
the power of Stellaron would be completely drained.
Uncertain whether it was her own fear or Stellaron's, Cocolia could no longer distinguish between them. The voices in her mind—her own thoughts and Stellaron's whispers—pushed her dangerously close to mental collapse.
The ice power within her rapidly transformed into Imaginary energy.
The Great Guardian took flight on the spot, attempting to buy time and accumulate more strength from Stellaron.
"You're the one barely clinging to life," Bochang leaped into action.
Initially, Cocolia believed she would be safe once airborne.
However, she didn't anticipate that the young man could also effortlessly soar through the air.
Terrified as if pursued by ghosts, she fled madly.
For Bochang, flying was merely child's play. By utilizing the Invisible Hand, he could effortlessly lift himself, akin to telekinesis.
To catch up with the swiftly moving Cocolia, Bochang used the Invisible Hand as his stepping platform, propelling himself forward step by step.
Had it been Cocolia at her peak, Bochang might not have been able to keep pace.
But...
After enduring his relentless punches, Cocolia seemed to have reached a state where even Buddha would take flight—her combat capabilities had significantly diminished.
Moreover, the Great Guardian no longer had the chance to summon rift creatures around them. With Bronya and others' attacks... those monsters were swiftly eliminated.
Since Bochang immediately started pummeling Cocolia upon his arrival, no one dared to rush forward and assist her.
Instead, they all watched from afar.
Even March 7th took out a camera to capture this memorable moment, preserving it for posterity.
As Cocolia fled, she continuously fired golden Imaginary rays at Bochang, attempting to counterattack. However, her efforts proved futile.
Despite circling high above for some time, Bochang eventually caught up with Cocolia. Enveloped in flames, he resembled a demon emerging from hell.
The blonde Great Guardian prepared to retaliate but found herself firmly gripped by three invisible hands once again.
With Bochang's flaming foot rapidly approaching, Cocolia couldn't help but shout, "Stay away!"
Without hesitation, Bochang delivered a powerful kick, sending her crashing to the ground amidst a cloud of dust and shattered debris.
On the altar surface, cracks radiated outward from where Cocolia landed on her back.
Bochang descended from the sky, relentless.
Without mercy, Bochang unleashed a barrage of punches and kicks. He slammed her head repeatedly against the ground and dragged her by the ankles, striking her from side to side.
It must be said—after obtaining the power of Stellaron, Cocolia's body became remarkably resilient. Despite Bochang's relentless assault, there was no sign of any cuts or bleeding.
The influence of Stellaron seemed like a stubborn affliction, deeply ingrained within her bones. It would not be easily eradicated.
Bochang sighed, "If I had known it'd be this difficult to sway her, I should have just blasted her with the Dragon Talisman..."
"Who is he fighting?" Serval curiously asked, watching from the sidelines.
Stelle remained composed. "Cocolia."
"What?" Serval blinked in surprise, "Cocolia?"
"Yes, indeed," Stelle nodded in confirmation.
In disbelief, Serval turned for a closer look and realized it truly was Cocolia.
After Bochang's brutal beating, the black aura around her faded, and much of her frost armor shattered, revealing her original appearance beneath.
The black aura around Cocolia had faded, and her icy armor was shattered, revealing her true form beneath.
Even her Great Guardian uniform showed signs of damage.
Fleeting glimpses of her snow-white skin were visible amidst...
...the numerous bruises covering her body.
Continuing the fight would likely strip her clothes entirely. Feeling somewhat reluctant, Bronya suggested, "That's enough, isn't it?"
At this moment, Bochang ceased her attacks, and the flames surrounding her dissipated.
Of course...
Bochang didn't stop because of Bronya's words.
Instead, it was due to the System's notification sound:
[Rewards being distributed - Congratulations! Your mental energy has been increased by 100%.]
Cocolia, eyes devoid of spirit, knelt weakly on the ground and pleaded, "Guh... Just kill me."
