The Xianzhou Yaoqing welcomed another great victory.
After a satisfying slaughter, Feixiao vented her anger—for the time being.
Since the war wasn't over yet, as the commanding general, she couldn't abandon her post, so Feixiao temporarily suppressed her urge to seek trouble with Seth.
However, the name 'Seth' and his appearance were deeply branded into Feixiao's mind.
Feixiao had secretly sworn in her heart that she would make this man named Seth pay!
Like playing with bondage? Like drawing Succubus tattoos on this old lady's belly, huh!?
This old lady will tie you up someday and draw all over you, not even sparing your dick!
…
Perhaps sensing the surging killing intent from the distant Xianzhou Yaoqing.
Seth was currently researching how to use 'Glazed Indestructible Golden Body (Gold)' to enhance his physical strength.
He was toying with a knife in his hand.
After repeated research and careful questioning of the system, he finally understood some hidden data details of 'Glazed Indestructible Golden Body (Gold)'.
The golden body's damage endurance limit was based on what could completely destroy his body.
For example, if a bullet could cause him fatal injury, breaking through his golden body would require cannon-level power.
A cannon's power is thousands or hundreds of times greater than a bullet's.
As long as Seth kept stacking the golden body's limit higher, he had a chance to become an immortal, indestructible existence.
But to achieve this goal, he had a long road ahead.
Seth held the knife against his chest, hesitating for a long time, before finally steeling himself and stabbing it forcefully into his heart.
It was said that Xianzhou's vitality was extremely strong; even if their head was chopped off, as long as it was reattached in time, they could recover.
Unfortunately, Seth wasn't a Xianzhou person; he was a direct transmigrator, what the Xianzhou called an outsider.
A handgun or a knife could take Seth's life.
Now that his heart was pierced by his own hand, he immediately felt his life rapidly draining away with the blood gushing from the chest wound...
It seemed to reach a critical point, and soon Seth's consciousness went black, and he knew nothing more.
In his suspended animation state, Seth didn't see that his body was suddenly enveloped in a faint golden glow.
Under the golden glow, he looked like a golden Buddha statue...
He didn't know how much time passed before Seth gradually regained consciousness.
When he fully awoke, he subconsciously touched the stab wound on his chest. The skin there was restored as new, showing no sign of having been stabbed.
If not for the small bloodstains on the ground, he would have thought it was all an illusion.
As if remembering something, Seth quickly picked up the knife from the ground and slashed forcefully at his arm.
Not only was his arm uninjured, but there wasn't even a mark!
The golden body had evolved; he was now fully immune to damage from ordinary blades!
He couldn't suppress the smile creeping onto his lips.
Next, he needed to find a way to evolve the golden body to the point of immunizing against Cloud Knights standard weapons.
Don't be fooled by the cold weapon appearance of Cloud Knights arms; they're all disguised high-tech.
Xianzhou's physical qualities are much weaker than Borisin people's, but they dominate thanks to superior weapons and equipment.
For instance, seemingly ordinary swords are actually high-frequency, monomolecular, laser, and other high-tech weapons. Even Yanqing's flying swords likely incorporate something like a drone system.
As an ordinary person and an outsider wary of the Xianzhou, Seth naturally couldn't easily access Cloud Knights standard weapons unless he joined the Cloud Knights.
Seth had relied on simulations and even offended a bunch of people just to avoid being cannon fodder. Asking him to join the Cloud Knights now? What a joke.
He knew full well that in the upcoming major events, the Cloud Knights would suffer heavy casualties. Joining now would be a surefire way to become cannon fodder.
So, Seth set his sights on civilian products, like various small cutting machines. These processing tools also used high-frequency, monomolecular, high-frequency laser, and other technologies.
The first place that came to mind for such machines was the Artisanship Commission, but it primarily served the Cloud Knights, like a semi-military factory, so getting processing machines from there was unlikely.
Thus, Seth quickly thought of Aurum Alley. Unlike Exalting Sanctum, which was full of entertainment facilities, Aurum Alley had various snacks and shops, including mechanical tool stores.
…
Seth acted immediately and soon arrived at Aurum Alley.
The tool store was easy to find, and Seth quickly bought the high-frequency cutting machine he needed.
Just as Seth was about to leave, a vibrant voice caught his attention.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Take a look, come and see! The most thrilling acrobatic performance!"
Seth stopped in his tracks and looked closely.
In the corner of the lane, a large crowd was gathered, with a hint of bright fiery red in the middle.
"It can't be that coincidental..."
Seth muttered, approaching the crowd with some curiosity.
Upon getting closer, he saw a familiar figure performing various bizarre acrobatics in the midst of the crowd.
It was a girl in a red dress, with flame-like orange-red hair and golden eyes.
Her outfit was distinctive, blending Xianzhou styles with some Western fantasy elements. Her long legs were clad in black stockings that clung to her curves like a second skin.
To attract more viewers, the girl would perform acrobatics for a while, then bang on a nearby gong vigorously. A few Diting nearby cooperated by making noises, making the scene incredibly lively.
She also had various live-streaming equipment set up, seemingly performing street shows while broadcasting online.
Her acrobatics were quite bizarre, like eating noodles upside down, catching bullets barehanded, and so on.
For traffic, the girl was going all out.
But it wasn't her fault—who could blame her when Xianzhou lived so long and had seen every performance? To stand out, you had to be creative.
It was clear the girl had mastered the art of generating buzz.
This Xianzhou version of an internet celebrity girl was named Guinaifen, though she wasn't called that yet. Her current name was Guinevere; Guinaifen was a name her future best friend Sushang would give her.
She and her siblings were likely the Star Rail world's counterparts to the characters from the Arthurian legend.
Unfortunately, the Star Rail world's Arthurian legend was interrupted before it could begin by the swarming Antimatter Legion.
Guinaifen went from princess to a refugee from a ruined nation.
To survive, her brothers became interstellar pirates, and coincidentally, they robbed an Xianzhou.
As followers of the Hunt, they believed in inevitable revenge, no matter how many years it took.
When her brothers were about to be beheaded, upon hearing their family's situation, the Cloud Knights spared them and brought the whole family to the Xianzhou.
