Pretending To Be A Boss
Chapter 952 - 82: The First in the Human World (Part 1)

Qi Yuan and Qi Yuan are indeed different.

The difference lies in the former possessing the most powerful combat abilities, while the latter has more of a human touch.

Their memories do not intersect, but when Qi Yuan created Qi Yuan, it imparted some degree of understanding.

Riding the golden Judgement Knight, the masked hero Maruko arrived at the center of the battlefield. Even the towering golden Judgement Knight appeared small before the beast-transformed Song Que.

[Who are you?!]

Song Que could no longer speak human language, but compared to before, he was now able to maintain basic reasoning despite being in a high-percentage beastification state.

His rapid progress amazed Ju Mang. Perhaps this was Song Que's true gift.

What surprised Song Que slightly was that Qi Yuan could understand the Myriad Beasts language.

"I'm just an ordinary citizen of Baichuan City."

This pretentious style—how is this so similar to someone who claims to be utterly unremarkable?

Parts of the battlefield were held up by the Judgement Knight, but the Myriad Beasts charged forth like an erupting swarm of insects.

Song Que leaped forward to block Qi Yuan's path, tearing apart a group of beasts.

[It's too dangerous here. Fall back and assist the hunters.]

Qi Yuan thought for a moment and nodded:

"I'm just here to deliver a message. You need to watch out for the three humans in the distance. Do you see them?"

Of course Song Que had noticed them.

"They are incredibly powerful. I can't control them. Moreover, their abilities are deadly to you."

[Who are these three?]

"Order's Children—all three are Konstantines. I can hold off one of them, but the other two are up to you. As you are now, you're no match for Order's Children."

Qi Yuan spoke the truth.

Song Que, in his ninety-five percent beastified form, possessed power surpassing ordinary Calamity-level beings. Coupled with his formidable shared-damage domain, even the Divine Envoy of Good and Evil fell for it due to a lack of intel on Song Que.

But these three Order's Children, their will empowered by Qi Yuan and the Lord of Eden, were intimately familiar with all the forces of the human world.

Song Que, Akasi, Yuan Wu—these strong humans were no strangers to the three Konstantines.

Song Que might have Calamity-level stats, but the Angel Envoys outmatched him in strength.

Especially when facing two Angel Envoys.

"The mechanical army and beast army are already containing people on the other fronts. Don't hope for reinforcements. I didn't anticipate the three of them appearing in the north. This means the Lord of Eden has shifted focus."

Song Que was shocked.

This little girl had such an accurate grasp of the true state of Baichuan City and the Myriad Beasts Realm.

But he suppressed his urge to question further. Right now, the priority was to defend Baichuan City's northern front.

[What should I do?]

"Humans have all sorts of limits, but you're no longer human. I don't know what you're capable of, but for now, assume that only you can handle this. So go all out."

Go all out.

Song Que said no more. If the only path forward was one of desperation, then retreat was never an option for him.

Curiously, what this little girl said might have been nonsense, yet Song Que found it exceptionally convincing.

He began calculating the situation.

Hunters, combined with the Judgement Knight whom the girl had persuaded, could likely fend off the beast tide and mechanical army.

The girl could hold off one Angel Envoy.

So his task was to eliminate the remaining two Angel Envoys in the shortest time possible.

This marked the northern battlefield—and perhaps the entire Baichuan front—for the first time as a boss fight.

The golden Judgement Knight fired the Exhaustive Heart Light, a straight gray beam piercing toward the fourteen-year-old-looking Angel Envoy.

But the youth smirked coldly and countered with his own Exhaustive Ray.

Between the Angel Envoy and the golden Judgement Knight, the difference was clear: king versus pawn.

In this clash of rays, the Angel Envoy was undeniably stronger.

Unlike Song Que, this young Angel Envoy recognized the little girl with just one glance.

He cast a side glance at his two companions, who nodded in response. The youth then walked toward Qi Yuan.

Meanwhile, Song Que entered his ninety-seven percent beastified form.

This was the limit of his control and his ultimate state.

Song Que blocked the remaining two Angel Envoys.

One of the two was burly with long hair, resembling a caveman living in an ancient cave.

The other wore blue armor and had short off-white hair. Compared to the burly Angel Envoy, this armored one was far more handsome.

"Half-human, half-beast. This looks troublesome. I'll take care of him first," said the armored Envoy.

The long-haired burly Envoy nodded. Despite what looked like an affinity for battling massive beasts, he retreated repeatedly, seemingly edging out of the battlefield.

Song Que felt a sense of unease. Perhaps this burly long-haired Envoy wasn't as simple as a brute-force fighter but rather… a gifted psychic?

At that moment, Song Que prepared to activate the Balance Eye but suddenly heard Qi Yuan's voice.

"Don't use your own gifts. You may see a despairing future. From now on, focus only on the present. Remember one thing: if you lose, Baichuan City is gone."

Qi Yuan's voice, like a trickling stream, cleared Song Que's consciousness slightly.

Song Que grasped the meaning behind her words. The future glimpsed with the Balance Eye would be short-lived, yet even so, it could reveal scenes he didn't want to see.

Scenes that might affect his emotions.
