Apocalypse I Have One More Keyword Than Others
Chapter 949 - - 626 Duge is all about control skills_2
—————✧✧✧✧—————
He spoke,
and with a snap of his fingers, arms and legs hidden within the Dark God Power were all displayed.
These limbs, thick and thin, long and short, were arrayed in front of Duge, making him seem much more like an Evil God…
When these limbs appeared, the breathing of the commanders sharply quickened.
They did not possess the ability to regenerate organs.
But with the current level of medical science, perfect limb attachment was possible without any side effects.
Taking their cells and using cloning technology could also allow for the cultivation of perfect limbs, but that required their autonomy to be restored, and it wasn’t as quick as getting back their original parts.
Duge presenting their limbs meant unequivocally that if they didn’t agree to join him, the best outcome for them would likely be spending the rest of their lives in their current state!
“I’m willing to join.”
Hari had already retracted all his mirror images, but because his real body was maimed, he remained crippled after their withdrawal.
He was a man, unaffected by Spring Heart is Sprouting, nor did he find Duge charming, and not even Duge’s promises had moved him.
Having followed the Divine King for a long time, he knew the Divine King wasn’t so easily killed.
If the Divine King lived and Duge left, then all those who betrayed the Divine King would not have good days ahead.
Surrendering at this moment was just an expedient measure.
Get his body back, stay by Duge’s side as an undercover, and he could provide information to the Divine King when the opportunity arose…
The pre-war rehearsal had not theorized this far; nobody expected such a crushing defeat, and not even the intelligent AI, based on both sides’ deductions, had foreseen this. It was a plan Hari concocted on the spot based on Duge’s character.
In Hari’s mind, there was another advantage to feigning surrender—if Duge was right and his Divine Power continued to rise rapidly, perhaps he could kill the Divine King, and a false surrender could become a genuine one at any time.
As the chief commander, when Hari took the lead to surrender, the others naturally no longer hesitated, and one by one, they chose to join Duge.
“Congratulations to all of you for making the most correct choice. From now on, we are a team.” Duge smiled, looking around at everyone, “Next, you only need to change your names slightly, and then you can retrieve your limbs.”
“I’m willing.” The female commander, lost in Duge’s charm, didn’t even ask for the reason and agreed without hesitation.
“What should we change our names to?” Hari asked cautiously.
“You don’t need to make too many changes, just add the word ‘Fish’ after your original names,” Duge said with a faint smile. “The character for fish is like a title, which will help increase everyone’s sense of belonging to the team. Of course, if you think adding the word ‘Fish’ alone doesn’t sound good, you can change it to Goldfish, Silverfish, Dragonfish… these more distinctive names are also acceptable…
Fish?
Jannie’s eyes suddenly widened, and the memories about fish from the simulation field instantly returned.
She remembered that under Duge’s bewitchment, she had also added Butterflyfish to her name. After adopting the Butterflyfish appellation, many of her behaviors became strange.
Later, when her memory was restored, she understood it might have something to do with the Skill…
But wasn’t the keyword for this situation freedom, as Duge had said?
Jannie looked at Duge, a hint of doubt arising in her heart. Why repeat the operation from the simulation field before?
After being hit by the God Annihilator Cannon, Duge’s behavior had become more and more abnormal.
“Why fish? Is there any special meaning in this?” Hari remained vigilant.
Cao Da had used a few words to persuade the Martial God to their side, which made Hari can’t help but suspect that the so-called “fish” names Duge mentioned were related to Skills.
“Because the first legacy power I acquired was the Sea God’s Power. The Sea God governs the oceans, and having ‘Fish’ in your names can increase my luck value.” Duge turned to look at Jannie, reaching out to take her hand gently, “Isn’t that right, my dear Miss Butterflyfish?”
Jannie had previously used the Skill Match Made in Heaven on Duge, and even though the effect wasn’t too obvious, Duge still felt uneasy.
Duge needed a clear mind; he didn’t want to one day inexplicably take a knife for Jannie. The Skill Fisherman would allow him to turn the fish he caught into his own possessions and could break the effect of Skills.
In the past, Duge had once used this Skill to break free from the influence of flattering keyword effects, saving himself once.
Jannie had also used Match Made in Heaven on herself, and influenced by Spring Heart is Sprouting, Duge’s few tender words instantly conquered her heart, her face flushed with shy affection as she grasped Duge’s hand: “Yes, I am Jannie Butterflyfish.”
When she said this, her eyes were practically melting as she looked at Duge.
But as she took Duge’s hand, his gaze momentarily cleared up a lot.
Jannie remained beautiful, but in Duge’s eyes, the layer of filter shrouding her seemed to have suddenly shattered.
Duge’s thoughts about her shifted rapidly.
Originally, there was a fixed idea in Duge’s heart that Jannie had undergone dual cultivation with him and even saved his life, so he would go to great lengths to rescue her from Pan-Universe Entertainment.
But after the filter shattered, Duge suddenly felt that his ideas were particularly foolish.
He couldn’t even escape from Pan-Universe Entertainment, yet he was thinking about saving others—it was a ridiculously impractical dream. When had he become so deluded?
Indeed.
He had been influenced by a Skill.
Duge sighed inwardly. At this point, that fixed idea had changed to, once he had enough power, he would go rescue Jannie. Her soul was imprisoned in Pan-Universe Entertainment,
