Facing Chen Zijin's accurate speculation, Zhang Yue was a bit surprised, "How did you know?"
At this moment, Chen Zijin was ten times more shocked than before, even her heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, looking at Zhang Yue with a gaze full of disbelief, she repeated with a slightly trembling voice, "You... you really are Asura?"
Zhang Yue habitually rested his staff on his shoulder, gave Chen Zijin a light smile, and asked, "Do I look like it?"
"Exactly," Chen Zijin nodded excitedly and said, "Very much so!"
"Do you know, ever since I suspected you were Asura, I tried every way to search for information about the Asura God," Chen Zijin said spiritedly, "There are a lot of records online about the deeds of the Asura God from a hundred years ago. At the time, I noticed that in terms of aura, you are not just similar, you're exactly the same."
Zhang Yue suspiciously asked, "Just based on aura, you're able to conclude I'm Asura?"
"Of course, aura is just one aspect," Chen Zijin said, "The main point is your strength, operation, and awareness. Looking at the whole world, besides the Asura God from our Dragon Nation, there's no one else who could compare."
"Alright, actually the main clue was last night, Wolong, Hidden Dragon, and Empress Xuan, those three elders, called you Master. I checked specifically last night and found that all three were powerful figures of the Dragon Nation from a hundred years ago, and back then, they were Asura's disciples." [T/N: Author put all the brain of entire dimension in her.]
Zhang Yue smiled and said, "Don't you find it far-fetched?"
"A little," Chen Zijin said, "but since there exists a thing like the Resurrection God Stone in this world, it's not so strange anymore."
"All those who die in other worlds can use the power of the Resurrection God Stone to be revived. I think you were also revived this way," Chen Zijin said seriously, "I heard that when you obtained seven Resurrection God Stones from the Gate of Immortality, you tried to use one to revive Asura but failed."
"At that time, the news spread, and based on the two most liked comments, one said Asura was still alive, so the resurrection failed; the other said Asura had been dead too long, so the God Stone had no effect."
"Combining this with my earlier guess, I believe you are Asura," Chen Zijin looked Zhang Yue up and down and said thoughtfully, "Only, you should be soul-revived, so you now reside in this body."
"Don't deny it!", The more Chen Zijin spoke, the more confident she became, "I checked your profile. I mean the previous profile of this current body. He was just a nobody from Zhening Province, with no background, no family support, and no resources. For someone like that to suddenly go from a Bronze-level player to a King-level powerhouse, with no process in between, it's just too unbelievable!"
By now, with Wolong, Hidden Dragon, and Empress Xuan protecting him, and even just under the name [Zero], his fame was almost no less than [Asura], so there was no need to keep hiding his identity.
Zhang Yue simply said, "You guessed right."
"I am Asura."
When Zhang Yue said this, Chen Zijin's eyes sparkled.
"Heavens, you really are Asura."
"You're the Asura God who became famous a hundred years ago by defeating a Tier 9 beast tide alone to save the Dragon Nation."
Just when Zhang Yue thought Chen Zijin would now fangirl over him, Chen Zijin suddenly went silent for three seconds, then said with a depressed expression, "Ah… so that means, you're more than a hundred years older than me? You're already an old man over a hundred?"
Zhang Yue: "Do I look like a hundred-year-old man to you?"
Chen Zijin was still a bit downcast, "No wonder you always said your mental age was older than mine. Turns out, you really are so much older…"
Zhang Yue obviously had no idea what strange thoughts were spinning in Chen Zijin's little head.
Chen Zijin didn't know what expression to put on as she looked at Zhang Yue and thought to herself, 'Age is just a number… yes, not a problem!' [T/N: No, it's not.]
'But… he's even older than my grandma…'
Regardless of what Chen Zijin was imagining, Zhang Yue's attention shifted to the Skeleton King.
Besides a tremendous boost in overall stats, and all special effects increasing from lv5 to lv max, the most important gain was the unique effect that only mythical-grade pets could comprehend.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
[Dark Night · Undying Monarch] (Exclusive Effect of Armageddon Skeleton King): As the King of the Undead Race, the Armageddon Skeleton King innately possesses the King's Divine Body. He can deal absolute damage to all enemies of a lower rank than himself (absolute damage ignores enemy defense, damage reduction, and armor resistance), and all enemies of a lower rank than the Armageddon Skeleton King will only be able to deal 1% of their damage to him (99% absolute damage immunity based on proportion).
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
Seeing this exclusive effect, even Zhang Yue couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
Absolute damage + absolute immunity, this was simply a bug-level attribute.
What do these two effects mean?
It means: at the Skeleton King's current level of 140, even facing a Level 500 monster, he could still deal the maximum real damage.
All of the enemy's damage reduction and resistance would be directly invalid in front of Skeleton King.
Even a Level 500 monster could only deal 1% damage to him.
99% absolute immunity, this was even more insane than the Ice-Sealed War God's mythical-grade treasure [Phantom Shield] which provided a maximum of 90% damage reduction.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this effect only works on opponents below the Skeleton King's grade.
You should know: the Skeleton King's current grade is mythical.
That means only mythical-grade opponents can ignore this effect.
Looking at the entire world, apart from Zhang Yue, only three mythical-grade professionals exist, Ghost Swordsman Elfa, Frost Mage King Kwon Ji-Hyun, and Hell Dragon Knight Restiev.
Which means: out of billions of professionals in the world, all will be suppressed by [Dark Night · Undying Monarch].
As for monsters, according to otherworld standards, only King-level bosses match mythical grade.
Which means: all bosses below King-grade, God-grade, Emperor-grade, Immortal-grade, are all subject to Skeleton King's exclusive effect.
The exclusive effect that the Skeleton King comprehended was honestly beyond Zhang Yue's expectations.
He never imagined that a pet formed from a normal boss could comprehend such an overwhelmingly powerful exclusive effect.
It was truly not in vain that Zhang Yue gave up the Ice-Sealed War God and chose the Skeleton King.
The Skeleton King did not disappoint Zhang Yue.
