Chapter 99: I’ll Cultivate Godhood Properly After Getting Through This
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fang Ning had complete confidence that the System would be able to wear out the Insect Demon. However, after he saw the folder named “Fury Generator” in the computer, he suddenly thought that maybe this was not the case after all.
After reading cuckolding novels for three months, dying from all that poison is probably exaggerating things a bit, but Fang Ning’s afraid that his taste in novels might just change…
After mulling things over, Fang Ning watched the tightly-packed swarm below them using the System View; he couldn’t tell just where it began and where it ended, as the swarm surged everywhere. All he could tell was that the swarm did not dare go near the border made of dragon-based vital energy.
Suddenly, an idea went off in his head, “Sir System, can you sense whether or not these insects are afraid of fire?”
The System answered, “What nonsense are you spewing? You must’ve been too busy reading novels to see all the burnt Yellowjacket carcasses on the way here, huh? That must’ve been the handiwork of the local Special Affairs Department.
“Then I have a high-efficiency but low-energy consuming way to deal with them, do you want to hear me out?”
“No, don’t waste my time. I’m going to start farming them soon.”
Hearing this, Fang Ning hastily said, “Wait, you can reduce this Formation Map’s size. Think about it, as you reduce the size of the Formation Map, those Yellowjackets wouldn’t dare break through the border, since it’s made of dragon-based vital energy. They’ll only cluster together closer and once they’ve clustered into the smallest possible size, all we have to do is pour oil in and light them on fire. Isn’t that the best plan…”
“No, it isn’t. The carcasses of these Yellowjackets possess great medicinal properties, so how can we burn them all? Besides, do you think reducing the size of the Formation Map doesn’t consume power? Stop spewing nonsense and go back to generating Fury from reading novels. By the way, what music genre do you want to listen to this time? I can satisfy anything you wish for.”
Fang Ning buried his head in his hands in desperation and spoke, “I don’t want to listen to any music… D*mned Insect Demons, killing all those innocent people made me relive all my painful memories. They should all just die!”
A System Notification read, [The Host has entered Fury Mode, all Aggro Bars will replenish immediately after consumption.]
The System spoke then, “Good, now maintain this status. I’ve already picked a song that’s perfect for this situation, let me play it for you…”
The song “XXXXXXXXX” started playing…
Fang Ning expressed his disgust, “Sh*t, which old ditch did you dig this song out from? It doesn’t fit the situation at all!”
A System Notification popped up then, [The Host’s Fury Mode has morphed into Extreme Fury Mode. Temporary buffs: All Aggro Bars have temporarily multiplied by 2. Aggro Bars have temporarily increased to 18.]
…
In the command post.
The sheer volume of the background music that emitted from the speakers next to the giant screen reverberated through everyone, giving them quite a shock.
The people below shared glances amongst each other, their faces that of confusion; not everyone had seen Vigilante A in combat before.
At this moment, someone slowly spoke up under the guise of the music, “I forgot to let everyone know that Vigilante A is a man that likes having his own BGM when he makes his appearance…”
“The song today seems to be a bit odd, however…”
Xue Feng face remained expressionless as he cleared his ears before waving his hand dismissively.
The volume of the music dropped significantly and everyone returned to their work at hand.
The giant screen then flashed with a hellish scene.
Endless waves of flames rose up within the space of the formation as a strong wind started blowing. The wind and flames joined together to form a whirlwind of fire, which rushed towards the swarm of Yellowjackets. The Yellowjackets were being grilled alive before they dropped into the flames like flies.
The Yellowjackets flew around in panic. When faced with the end of their lives, none were as fierce and ferocious as before…
Nobody in the command post spoke, as they were all too shocked by Vigilante A’s overwhelming power. A rerun on a screen would never be able to compare to actually watching something live.
The vicious flames and the strong winds all showed just how powerful a person could be…
Not long after, the Yellowjackets came up with a countermeasure to their doom.
They hastily lined themselves up neatly and orderly before they started spraying venom from their stingers.
A Greater Yellowjacket the size of a sparrow would have a limited amount of venom; but when thousands of Yellowjackets sprayed venom at the same time, it was truly a sight to behold.
Everyone’s hearts dropped to their stomachs; if Vigilante A could not maintain himself, things would take a truly complicated turn. Would that Insect Demon stay true to its words? Who would truly believe a cunning and mischievous fellow?
A brief moment later, the hellish flames rose up once again with even stronger vigor. Seeing this happen, everyone watching breathed a sigh of relief.
…
A System Notification read, [The System consumed all 18 Aggro Bars to cast Esoteric Skill, “Dragon’s Breath Hell”. The move’s current Attributes are wind and fire. The Host is currently in “Extreme Fury Mode”, all Aggro Bars have been fully replenished.
Mutated Giant Yellowjacket Swarm suffered an attack of both wind and fire Attributes and was inhibited by Dragon Force! Critical attack! Defense ignored!

…]
Fang Ning stopped reading the System Notifications since constantly changing screens was making him dizzy…
He had no idea how long he had maintained Fury Mode, but he felt extreme light headed now.
A System Notification popped up then, [The Host suffered excessive mental exhaustion and needs to rest.]
As if finally free of a heavy burden, Fang Ning laid down on the floor, “You see, even a notification has popped up so let me take a short break.”
“That’s all because you don’t practice cultivation enough! You have such weak spiritual sense, which is why you can only maintain Fury Mode for so long before you’ve exhausted yourself mentally! I just received 20,000 experience points, which is about the same as me farming a medium Boss.”
“After I get through this I’ll cultivate Godhood properly, no, I mean practice cultivation properly. You see, I’m so tired I can’t even speak properly. Let me take a nap.”
Right after Fang Ning finished speaking, he immediately fell asleep on the floor of the System Cyber Café.
Just as he had expected, he really was the first person to wear out…
In the command post, they could only see the flames in the Formation space slowly disappear. Vigilante A no longer casted another wide AoE attack. Instead, two dragon-shaped gusts of vital energy rushed towards the still-huge swarm and started killing everything in sight.
Faced with the massacre being committed by the dragon-shaped vital energies, the swarm did not just sit around to wait for their deaths. Instead, the Giant Yellowjackets slowly clustered together into spheres; very soon, a yellow protective shield formed on the outside of the spheres.
After the Yellowjackets had formed into spheres of different sizes, the killing efficiency of the dragon-shaped vital energies had very obviously dropped significantly. They needed to rush at the spheres for a few times to break the shield before they could enter it to continue their massacre.
Everyone started worrying again; if this went on, how much more vital energy would Vigilante A need to expend? Despite of the continuous slaughter, the swarm did not seem to be decreasing in number…
In the System Space.
The System spoke, “Without Aggro, I can’t use my Esoteric Skills. I can still kill them, but the efficiency of killing is just too low… Speaking of which, you’ve been napping for more than two hours, so you should be awake by now, Host.”
Fang Ning had not heard the System at all. He remained unmoving in his spot, dead asleep like a log. His mouth was wide open and he would even occasionally let out sounds of “hoo hoo…”
The System then said, “It seems that you spend too much time playing video games, which is why your stamina is insufficient…”
Fang Ning went, “Hoo… hoo…”
“Alright, to avoid you running out of stamina during emergency situations in the future, I’ll have to sell your gaming equipment and delete your accounts.”
Fang Ning immediately sat up in a flurry, “I’m done with my nap! D*mned cunning and mischievous Insect Demon, it could’ve stayed at home obediently but it had to come out to cause trouble! Because of you guys, my precious gaming equipment is in danger, so you lot should just die now!”
A System Notification popped up then, [The Host has entered “Fury Mode”, all Aggro Bars will be replenished immediately upon consumption.]
And so, Fang Ning had to sleep to replenish his energy, then wake up in Fury Mode, then go back to sleep to replenish his energy again during the entire monster farming process.
Once they were done, the System said, “What a satisfying farming… This entire hoard was three million points, and it’s just the swarm that the Insect Demon summoned. If we farmed the Insect Demon itself, who knows how much experience points we’ll gain. The most experience points we got in a single instance previously was when we farmed the Bai sisters, but they also only gave us a hundred and ten million experience points. What a huge difference between a Boss and a Super Boss indeed.”
Fang Ning listlessly said, “As long as you’re happy, Sir System… as long as you don’t hold such a grudge towards my gaming equipment, they’re not worth a lot.”
“Are you sure? I remember the last time after somebody offered you a hundred thousand for a book you managed to loot, you immediately looted hundreds more of the same book, which isn’t all that bad from the efficiency of your restaurant…”
“You have such good memory, Sir System…”
The insects within the Formation space were gradually lessening, and it did not seem like they were replenishing either.
However, The System had stopped to take a break; it had already been eight days since they started but it still seemed like their enemy was still going strong.
The command post had already been fully replaced with a new batch of personnel, and they all held high hopes towards the situation.
Everyone was taking turns to witness this Venerable Dragon God. Vigilante A’s penchant for style meant that he would always be playing some music to lift the boring mood, but nobody could figure out what order his BGM was. This had already become a small research topic in the command post.
