My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Watson?

Christina turned her head and realized that the person who had appeared behind her was Watson. She was confused.

“Why are you in my trial? And you said that you had cleared it. What’s going on?” After being stunned for a few seconds, Christina snapped back to her senses and asked in surprise.

“Just what I said. I just defeated my own clone. I thought I would be able to leave this area and get a reward. I did not expect to enter another dimension.”

Watson explained as he looked around. He could not help but click his tongue when he saw the collapsed temple and the 200 Holy Sword adventurer team members huddled together. He had entered the 100th floor of the maze by himself. However, Christina had brought so many people with her. It was likely that she was cheating.

After he looked around the area, his gaze fell on the Sword Saint clone, who was pointing his sword at Christina’s neck. “Miss Christina, it seems like you have encountered a small problem. Do you need me to help you solve it?”

Christina pointed at the sword on her neck and laughed self-deprecatingly. “What can you do to help me in this situation?”

“That kid doesn’t understand the situation. Lady Swordmistress’ opponent is the Sword Saint, yet he dares to boast that he can help.”

“Even if he is Master Antonio’s disciple and is powerful, he is definitely not a match for the Sword Saint’s clone! He had cleared the dungeon, yet he is here. He can only blame his bad luck.”

Before Christina could reply, the Holy Sword adventurer team members had already spoken. Even though they did not like Watson, they did feel sorry for him. Watson could have been the second person to have cleared the dungeon, but he was about to die there.

“Sword Saint? So that’s the sword saint’s projection in front of me? He doesn’t look that strong.”

Watson began to observe the yellow-haired man in front of him and the black and white longsword on his back. He had long heard of the Sword Saint. His master had said he should be the Sword Saint disciple when they reached the royal city. Antonio wanted Watson to learn swordsmanship from the Sword Saint. Sylvan had also said that the Sword Saint was the number one elite in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. Even Antonio, who had advanced to diamond-tier, could not withstand three strikes from the swordsman.

The Sword Saint clone looked very young, and there was an unconcealable pride on his face. It was clear that it was the Sword Saint’s younger self.

“Does that kid think that he’s invincible after clearing the dungeon? He said that the Sword Saint’s clone doesn’t look very strong. I think he’ll last long.”

The adventurer team member who had just spoken sighed. Then, another person said, “When I saw the youth forcefully pull the underground city out of the ground, I thought that he was very strong. At the very least, he wouldn’t be weaker than Lady Swordmistress! But now, it seems like that was only a facade. He can’t even tell how strong the Sword Saint is. Perhaps the reason he survived the underground city was that the clone was too weak.”

Everyone knew about the Sword Saint’s strength. When Christina had fought him, the Sword Saint clone had only attacked her casually, and Christina could not even retaliate against that. She was almost killed when the clone used a powerful sword technique, the Light and Darkness Reincarnation.

“Watson, this is my trial. It has nothing to do with you. Think of a way to leave.”

While Watson was speaking, Christina pushed the sword away from her neck and stood up shakily. She wiped the blood from the corners of her mouth. After all, he was part of the World Transformation Mirror; he was only wearing her father’s skin. She knew that her father was powerful, but he was not invincible when he was young. The clone was strong because the World Transformation Mirror had absorbed the experiences of different cultivators over the past hundreds of years into his body.

Under such circumstances, even Watson might not be a match for him.

“Since Miss Christina has chosen to continue, I’ll let the clone continue to move. I can see how tired you are; you should just give up.” The World Transformation Mirror girl clapped her hands in the distance. “As for Mr. Watson, as the second person to clear the trial in decades, I’ll send you off and give you a reward later.”

“The strongest combat technique at the peak of platinum-tier, Light and Darkness Reincarnation!”

The clone drew two longswords from his back and unleashed the same move on Christina. However, the attack was much more powerful than the previous one.

Light and darkness occupied the entire temple before it was split into two. One half was daytime, and the blazing light was enough to melt anyone there. On the other side was eternal darkness. Anyone who entered it would be devoured.

The Holy Sword adventurer team members, who initially stood quite far away, were not spared. Regardless of whether they were silver-tier or gold-tier, those who stood on the bright side evaporated, and their armor melted with them. Those who were in the darkness zone had vanished without a trace.

It was not only the temple; it was as if the entire space was about to be divided into two.

“That’s not good! Everyone, run!”

No one knew who had cried out in alarm, but no matter where they ran to, light and darkness continued to alternate around them. It was as if they were trapped in a vast cage that engulfed everyone and filled everyone’s faces with the sorrow of death.

“Absolute Reflex!”

Suddenly, Watson’s voice resounded throughout the entire temple, echoing in everyone’s ears. Suddenly, the light and darkness that had enveloped the entire stairway temple had disappeared, and everything returned to its peaceful state.

“Miss Christina, even though we have a lot of conflicts, we’re here together. At least, let me save you before you leave.”

Watson took a step forward and stood in front of Christina. A halo that symbolized an angel appeared above his head, and an illusory mirror appeared on his body. The Light and Darkness Reincarnation released by the Sword Saint clone had collided with the mirror. Suddenly, it twisted and returned at an even faster speed. It landed directly on the clone, causing cracks to appear on his body.

“Absolute Destruction!”

Watson pointed his finger again, aiming at the spot between the clone’s eyebrows. With a crisp crack, the clone’s body shattered like fragile porcelain.

Watson had fused the Absolute Destruction spell when he fought against his clone. He had mastered more than 40 diamond-tier rules, which were created by fusing many platinum-tier spells. Each rule was extraordinary. During his battle with his clone, he had fused those rules again, resulting in him learning dozens of brand new rules. Absolute Destruction was one of them.

No matter what object or creature was in front of him, Watson could use the Absolute Destruction spell to destroy it.

It was a tremendous accomplishment to be able to defeat the clone’s freshly fused diamond-tier rules. After all, regardless of how quickly the clone replicated his memories, it would still be slower than his system’s fusion rate.

“You are quite prepared to meddle in other people’s affairs.” Christina pursed her lips after a lengthy stare at the teenager in front of her. Her face relaxed slightly, and a glimmer of surprise emerged in her eyes. Her father’s clone was a formidable opponent who could not be defeated even if she battled him with all her might. Yet, Watson had destroyed the clone easily.

“Did that youth kill the sword saint’s clone? Did I see it right?”

The Holy Sword adventurer team members, who had been running away, looked back in disbelief when they saw Watson’s actions and the dregs on the ground.

“Mr. Watson, you could have left, but you chose to stay. Are you trying to provoke me?” The vortex on the World Transformation Mirror girl’s face was covered with a layer of frost. “You’d have to pay the price for that.”

Swish, Swish!

However, as soon as she finished speaking, a succession of piercing sounds erupted from the stairway temple. Human figures emerged from the dense fog—men, women, old and young. They wore clothes from different eras, and there were countless of them. The densely packed human figures occupied all the space in the surroundings, and all of them were eyeing Watson covetously.
