My Special Ability is Perfect Replication

Chapter 356: A Metal Planet, the Last Boss

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The entire planet was full of reed-like plants.

There was nothing else besides that.

It was a weird planet. It was extremely impossible for a planet to evolve with only a single plant species, but it would be entirely possible if it resulted from artificial influence.

Plus, the entire planet appeared peaceful. The only audible sound was the rustling of the reeds in the wind.

There were no bugs and birds chirping or animals roaring. The entire planet was quiet.

“It’s hard to imagine that there are billions of living things lurking on such a planet, let alone hundreds of super-clustered beings.”

Ling Jiu gasped, releasing a little of his energy.

Swish!

Just as he did that, the reeds in the distance swayed, and a huge, as well as hideous head, poked out from the reeds.

Hiss!

It was the head of a Hydra, which was the size of a dustpan, with black scales all over the surface. A pair of blood-red eyes were staring at Ling Jiu.

“Huh, a human?”

The Hydra flicked its tongue as it hissed, looking surprised. The next second, 33 Hydra heads popped out from the reeds.

These 33 heads grew on the same neck, and they were densely packed. The sight would have scared the hell out of those with trypophobia.

“Hiss... I never expected to see a human here. What a surprise! But since he’s here, I will make him my snack today.”

The 33 Hydra heads flicked their tongues and swished their tails as they moved toward Ling Jiu in a whirlwind.

“According to what you said, with 33 Hydra heads, this guy is a Level 6 super-clustered being?” Ling Jiu asked faintly, ignoring the approaching giant Hydra.

“That’s right. The Lernaean Hydras will grow a head every time they evolve to a higher level. They go from planetary Level 1 to super-clustered Level 6, ending with exactly thirty-three heads,” Leoux replied.

“Not bad.” Ling Jiu nodded gently.

The Lernaean Hydra had arrived before him, and it was about to bite him. It was going to tear him into pieces and eat him.

It was a shame that right then, time in its surroundings suddenly came to a standstill.

A beam of black light shooting out of Ling Jiu’s wrist wrapped around and dragged the Hydra into the Leoux.

“Extract its soul and leave the body to me, Leoux.”

“Understood.” Leoux was doing it so fast that it seemed effortless. Before long, it spat out the body of the Lernaean Hydra.

Ling Jiu took the body into his Inner World (Flame Astral Behemoth) and decomposed it.

The decomposing ability of his Inner World became super robust after he became a super-clustered being.

The Lernaean Hydra was decomposed into the purest vitality and sent into Ling Jiu’s body in no time.

Just like the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar, Ling Jiu was wearing a Gravity Bangle that constantly consumed his vitality. His and his avatar’s body became stronger during the process of such consumption.

Ling Jiu issued his first command. “Leoux, give me the soul fragments. Find and catch the other Lernaean Hydras on this planet—I mean all of them.”

“You got it.” Leoux lunged out of Ling Jiu’s wrist and carried out the order, while Ling Jiu started to digest the soul fragments of this Lernaean Hydra.

According to Leoux’s findings, there were 3 billion Lernaean Hydras on this planet. They lived in the water beneath the reeds. They were one of the only two living species on this planet. It was hard to imagine how they survived.

But this was not something Ling Jiu cared about. No matter how many Lernaean Hydras were here, they all were going to become his source of nourishment.

Any other thing was not important.

Leoux was highly efficient in its job. It piloted the Leoux to find and capture all the Lernaean Hydras it could find, like a harvester sweeping across the surface of the planet.

It captured them indiscriminately, whether they were strong or weak, stellar beings or super-clustered beings.

Not a single Lernaean Hydra on this planet could escape the raid. They all went into the Leoux.

All the Lernaean Hydras on this planet were wiped out in just ten hours. There was not a Hydra left.

Of course, the Lernaean Hydras would not go extinct just yet. Instead, Leoux had detected tons of Hydra eggs in the reeds.

These Hydra eggs would hatch in the coming spring, and by then, the Lernaean Hydras would take over the planet again.

So, the Lernaean Hydra was really a disgusting species.

“Extract the souls out of the super-clustered beings and shred them into soul fragments and then pass their bodies to me.”

“Understood.” Leoux faded into a stream of light and left the planet. They were heading to the next Lernaean Hydra-infested planet.

During the flight, Ling Jiu started to get busy. He had to digest not only the soul fragments but also the many Lernaean Hydra bodies. He was up to his neck.

He threw hundreds of super-clustered Lernaean Hydras into the Floating Island, converting them into Dark Psionic Energy to expand the Soul Nebula.

He then divided the remaining Lernaean Hydras into two parts, one part going into his Inner World (the Flame Astral Behemoth), the other part into that of the Saiyan Golden Ape avatar (the Flame Astral Behemoth). There, Lernaean Hydras would be converted into pure vitality to strengthen the physical body.

Time flies when you are busy. Before they knew it, they had come to a second Lernaean Hydra-infested planet.

They subsequently went from second, third, fourth to the fifth planet.

Over time, Ling Jiu found that the Lernaean Hydras were actually highly vicious creatures. No other species could exist on the planet where Lernaean Hydras lived.

There might be many plant species on a planet, but there was always only one species of creature, which was the Lernaean Hydra.

“I wonder what these guys feed on.”

“I have studied them. The Lernaean Hydra is an artificially created species. They do not need to forage but have the same photosynthesis ability as plants. They can survive forever by just converting light into energy,” Leoux said.

“This ability is really sick, just like mine.” Ling Jiu was astonished.

He did not actually need food, because he had replicated Absorb Any Form of Energy Into Vitality Arcana.

He could live without food and water, but just by converting solar and wind energies into vitality.

So when the Lernaean Hydra had the same ability it was just sick.

“That thing is just as sick as you are.”

In the following three months, Ling Jiu and Leoux went around all the planets and hunted the Lernaean Hydras.

During those three months, countless Lernaean Hydras were killed, planets cleaned up.

In the fourth month, Ling Jiu and Leoux arrived at the center of the Andromeda Galaxy where a supermassive white hole was.

This white hole was so massive that it was tens of thousands of times larger than the one near Whitehole 1, ejecting torrents of energy all the time.

The amazing things were, there were hundreds of planets around this white hole, and they were all life-harboring planets.

Ling Jiu could sense the powerful energy of life on these planets from a far distance.

These planets looked like bright moons in the night sky; they were hard to miss.

“If I am not mistaken, this white hole is the lair of the Lernaean Hydra. Or rather, the hiding place of their boss.” There was a hint of suppressed delight in Leoux’s voice.

Ling Jiu nodded gently. “We have visited half of the Andromeda galaxy for the past four months and never once encountered a region with so many life-harboring planets. If the primary lair of the Lernaean Hydra is on any celestial body, this white hole is the most probable place.”

“Absolutely.”

Leoux scanned around and quickly came back with results. “There are three hundred and thirty-four planets near this white hole. 333 were life-harboring planets with 129,860 super-clustered beings. Wait a second. What is that?”

Leoux’s voice went up an octave in excitement all of a sudden. “Damn! Ling Jiu, you will be rich. You are so damn lucky!”

“Rich?”

It confused Ling Jiu to see Leoux suddenly becoming so excited for no reason. “What the hell are you talking about?”

Ling Jiu was more interested in the 129,860 super-clustered beings. He was imagining how large his Soul Nebula would expand if he refined all of them.

“I told you before, the Lernaean Hydra is an artificially created species, and that there must be a big boss behind this, right?” Leoux said.

“Yeah. So?” Ling Jiu was confused. “You have found the boss?”

“You bet.” Leoux nodded vigorously. “I told you before that there are 334 planets, of which 333 are life-harboring planets, right?”

“Yeah.”

“The remaining one planet is not a natural life-sustaining but a metal planet,” Leoux said as it randomly pressed a few buttons. A light flashed in the Leoux and a holographic projection of a planet appeared.

This was not the first time Ling Jiu saw a hologram.

The planet shown in the hologram was a black planet, looking like a massive spherical Rubik’s cube with countless squares engraved on the surface, and each square was as large as dozens of square kilometers.

Diving the squares were ravines that were thousands of meters long and tens of meters deep. These ravines were all over the planet.

“See that? This is the only metal celestial body among the 334 planets.” Leoux had calmed down by now. “It is made of Class 5 alloys, obviously the work of the Grand Unified Civilization. Not only that; it looks like a planet on the outside, but actually was a metal fortress, or you can call it a spaceship. The Lernaean Hydra is just a group of brutal creatures with a low IQ and brute strength. Apparently, they could not make such a spaceship. The question is, who built it?”

“The Boss?” Ling Jiu raised his eyebrows.

“Bingo! It is the boss hiding behind the Lernaean Hydras. But do you know what this boss is? An Evogod. It is an Evogod.”

“An Evogod? Seriously?”
