Chapter 2101: Chapter 1662: Introducing a Match to the Monarch

From the perspective of the God Star, if the Monarch really wants to play tricks, there’s really no good way to stop it.

Others might not know how hard the Star Skeleton is, but Ange and the others know it all too well.

Among countless Incremental Bodies, the Star Skeleton might be the toughest. Even if it falls into the God Star’s interior, it remains unharmed and can pull the entire Silent Death Sea with just one arm. Destroying it is immensely difficult.

And being small in size is somewhat of an advantage, as the energy applied to its surface area is greatly reduced.

It’s like a hollow iron ball thrown into the deep sea, easily crushed by the water pressure. But if it’s replaced with a solid iron ball of the same weight, no depth can harm it.

Letting the Star Skeleton enter the body is like dropping an iron ball into the sea. On land, it can be smashed on a rocky surface, but in the water, no hammer, however big, can flatten it.

Unless there are other means, it is impossible to kill it with pressure inside the God Star.

Just thinking that other Star Skeletons could enter the interiors of Little Fireman and other God Stars made Anthony and Negriss uncomfortable.

They quickly shook off these thoughts and asked, "Your Majesty, how did you get to the Furnace Branch? How did you virtualize the Star Body? What’s the situation over at the Furnace Branch?"

Anthony threw out a series of questions.

The Monarch spent some effort recounting what happened after reaching the Furnace Branch.

"The Gate of No Boundary has a transmission function, and I randomly picked a point to transport to and arrived at the Furnace Branch. According to your measurement units, the other side is roughly a God Star with 60 times the mass of a Little Fireman. I named it Hammer."

"Ah, why call it Hammer?" Negriss asked curiously upon hearing such a non-standard name for a God Star.

The Monarch asked in confusion, "Can’t it be called Hammer?"

Negriss said, "It’s not that it can’t be called that, just the name is weird. Normally aren’t names translated from spectrographic voiceprints?"

The Monarch dismissively waved his hand, "That’s just your habit. How can that be normal? There’s no such naming method in the Void; it’s just your habit. God Stars don’t have names, and since I can’t understand its spectrum, I just named it randomly. I called it Hammer because it dared to hammer me."

The Monarch arrived at the surface of this so-called Hammer God Star, which had even opened the Gate of No Boundary on its surface, poised to restrain visitors immediately, just like when Gemez Fortress imprisoned that batch of Dark Stars.

But it was unprepared for the arrival of an uncrushable Star Bones.

As soon as the Monarch crossed the Gate of No Boundary, he dived inside, flopping down to claim he was hit, demanding compensation before getting up, infuriating the Hammer God Star to near explosion.

As a God Star, it never expected that someone would collide with it and demand compensation. What could withstand a God Star’s collision?

What followed was naturally a chase, but unfortunately, the Monarch’s body was indestructible, his soul unyielding, and he had the ability to self-seal. Even the conscious impact of the God Star couldn’t harm him.

Thus, they were locked in a stalemate for several months. The Monarch infiltrated the core of the God Star and quickly discovered an advantage. The interior of the God Star was extremely suitable for forging the body.

The immense pressure of the God Star constantly squeezed and hammered the Star Body and Star Attraction. By continuously injecting increments to strengthen the Star Body and Attraction and letting them resist the huge pressure of the God Star, both the Star Body and Attraction could become more condensed.

However, the Monarch had already escaped. Without Ange’s help, he had no substantial increment source and could only supplement increments slightly through self-belief, enough for maintenance but difficult to strengthen himself.

So the Monarch decided to wreak havoc in the core region of the God Star.

Persistently speeding up the decay of its increments, which slowly released to the surface, the Monarch’s destruction caused the God Star’s core to accelerate its rate of decay.

With every punch he threw, the God Star lost years of life, and after a few days of this, it lost millions of years of lifespan.

Thus, the Hammer God Star had to consider compensation.

"In the end, it offered me increments sustaining ten thousand years of decay and introduced me to another target in exchange for leaving its main body," the Monarch finally said.

Negriss spat out metaphorical blood, "You even wanted it to introduce you to another target?"

The Monarch said matter-of-factly, "It wanted me gone, and if it didn’t find me a target, where would I go? Of course, it had to find me a new strong one."

Negriss asked, "Okay, so did it hand you over to Helios?"

"No, no, I chose a God Star about two hundred times the size of a Little Fireman. I was afraid I couldn’t handle too strong a Star Soul, so I took it step by step, withstanding the two-hundredfold before moving to a thousandfold and ten-thousandfold, then finally reaching Heliros. I learned the Shattering Stars ability on a God Star five-thousand times bigger," the Monarch said.

"You actually knew how to take it step by step? Shattering Stars is the ability to virtualize the Star Body, right?" Negriss asked.

"Of course, did you think I was like you? Challenging me when you couldn’t even beat Locke; I went easy on you back then," the Monarch retorted with some annoyance.

The God Star’s internal pressure was hugely beneficial for body tempering, so the Monarch was happy to switch targets, playing tricks on one after another, gradually rising step by step, amassing considerable increments, ultimately landing on Heliros.

Heliros was already the most powerful existence on the Furnace Branch. The Monarch was ready to settle there. After mastering Shattering Stars, even if it didn’t give him increments, he could still scrounge up his own, albeit at much slower efficiency.

Unexpectedly, Heliros indeed found something that piqued his interest. One day, it informed him that more than five Ghost Hunting Dogs had gathered on Lania Branch Road, indicating something significant was happening.

If it were merely Ghost Hunting Dogs gathering, the Monarch might not have cared. Still, the Lania Branch Road attracting them was something the Monarch had to consider.

Because he knew Ange and the others were on Lania Branch Road, and these Ghost Hunting Dogs were likely related to Ange and the others.

What he didn’t expect was that they were directly impersonating the Ghost Hunting Dogs. At this point, the Monarch couldn’t help but marvel, "You guys even managed to impersonate Ghost Hunting Dogs, how did you do it?"

"Ange found a fragment of an Exotic Ghost, restored it, and gave each of us two Stacked Pieces. Each piece recorded specific information about a God Star," Negriss explained about the Stacked Pieces.

The Monarch was taken aback, "The Stacked Pieces sound a lot like my Bronze Book. What are Exotic Ghosts preserving this God Star information for?"

Negriss involuntarily asked, "Old Immortal, why did you create the Bronze Book?"
