Undergoing a tribulation was not difficult, at least, not for Quinn.

In merely half a day, the vast dark clouds had dispersed, revealing a patch of clear sky.

At this moment, if one looked up, they would see a girl with chestnut-colored, shoulder-length hair standing silently. At her fingertips, a flicker of electric arc danced. Her deep and radiant eyes reflected intermittent flashes of lightning, which were gradually subsiding.

There was a monstrous aura around her, distorting the world around her.

Quinn, a Tier-5 True God! An amazing prodigy of the younger generation and the first to step into the Realm of True God, Tier-5.

Coupled with the Atomic Reactor and AI Combat Assistance System, her combat power was not to be trifled with.

Although she had just advanced to Tier-5, Yu Zi Yu had no doubt that this little girl could contend against Intermediate Stage Tier-5 True Gods.

After all, true geniuses remained geniuses at every level. Their combat prowess was consistently overwhelming, a stark contrast to mediocrity.

With a faint smile, Yu Zi Yu looked at Quinn in the distance. Her clothes were slightly disheveled, and her aura was in disarray, evidence that while the tribulation was not a problem, it had still left her somewhat battered.

Thus, with a gentle wave of his branches, green light cascaded toward Quinn.

In mere moments, it was as if she had been bathed in a spring breeze. Her aura steadied, and even the fatigue between her brows eased.

“Big Brother…” With a hint of gratitude in her voice, Quinn called out, visibly moved.

Her advancement in the Hierarchy of Life made it impossible for her to conceal her joy.

However, just as she was about to say something, a warm voice echoed in her heart, “Take your time to recover…For now, the most important thing is to settle your new strength and avoid any lingering aftereffects.” Yu Zi Yu spoke in the tone of someone who had been through it all.

“Okay…” With a cheerful laugh, Quinn brushed aside a strand of her chestnut-colored hair and moved.

*Crackle…* Immediately, her body transformed into a bolt of lightning, streaking toward Yu Zi Yu’s massive form in an instant. After all, where better to stabilize her newfound strength than on Yu Zi Yu’s True Body?

Yu Zi Yu, of course, welcomed her warmly. His branches weaved together, creating a small wooden house atop a sturdy, thick branch.

Seeing this, a smile bloomed on Quinn’s lips, and she quickly made her way to the wooden house to begin her retreat.

Having just broken through, she needed to adjust to her newfound power. For someone like Quinn, who had undergone a qualitative transformation by stepping into Tier-5, refinement was even more essential.

As Quinn stepped into the wooden house, a luxurious status screen appeared before Yu Zi Yu’s eyes.

Race: Human
Rank: Tier-5

Innate Talent: Mastery of Electromagnetism — She is extremely talented in the forces of electromagnetism. She can freely manipulate billions of volts of high-voltage currents, electromagnetic waves, and magnetic forces.

Unique Abilities:

Railgun — Using the principle of electromagnetic induction, she can launch a metallic coin, adjusting its flight path and accelerating it with her electromagnetic control.

Lightning Spear—A silver-blue spear formed from billions of volts of electric current. It travels at the speed of light in a straight trajectory. Its path and speed can also be adjusted mid-flight using the principle of electromagnetic induction.

Lightning Fall — Summons thunderclouds to generate devastating lightning strikes, akin to a Heavenly Tribulation. It’s capable of annihilating an entire continent.

Electromagnetic Force — She has a basic mastery of electromagnetism, and could use it to enhance her perception and evade attacks.

Electromagnetic Wave Detection — She can use electromagnetic waves to map her surroundings, functioning like a radar by sensing subtle changes in reflected waves.

Hacking — With her direct control over electronics, no program or firewall is beyond her reach. All technological creations hold no secrets before her.

Atomic Reactor — A core power source that can provide her unparalleled endurance and explosive strength.

Tactical Assistance — The AI Combat Assistance System integrated in her acts as an auxiliary intelligence, significantly aiding her in combat.

As Yu Zi Yu went through her status screen, a faint smile tugged at the corner of his lips.

[She is truly the pinnacle of the Demon Court’s technological creations.]

After ascending to Tier-5, every aspect of Quinn’s abilities underwent a qualitative transformation.

Leaving aside other abilities, just Quinn’s Hacking skill alone was enough to bypass any scientific defense mechanism.

Of course… more than that, Yu Zi Yu was most impressed by Quinn’s simplest and most fundamental ability—Railgun.

Using the principle of electromagnetic induction, she could launch a coin with terrifying speed.

Moreover, the projectile could continue accelerating.

Its immense velocity could leave afterimages in the air, ultimately transforming into a laser-like streak capable of tearing through anything.

The shockwave alone, unleashed by its speed, was sufficient to obliterate an entire city.

This alone demonstrated how fearsome the ability truly was.

And this was considering that ordinary coins would burn up from friction after traveling a kilometer. What if a better conductor was used as the medium?

In fact, Yu Zi Yu was already planning to forge coins for Quinn out of Divine Metal as a gift.

If Divine Metal Coins were used as the medium, Quinn might be able to pierce through an entire planet with a single shot.

And it was not an exaggeration, simply because this was the inherent potential of this ability.

After all, the projectile could continue accelerating until it reached the speed of light… or even faster.

The only issue worth worrying about was this: the further the range, the less precise Quinn’s aim would become.

When her Railgun reached a power level capable of piercing a planet, locking onto a celestial body in the vast expanse of the starry sky would likely be a significant challenge.

At the thought of this, the corners of Yu Zi Yu’s mouth curled into an amused smirk. He believed such matters weren’t something he needed to concern himself with. Rather than fretting over that, he felt it was necessary to craft a proper weapon for Quinn.

“Let’s go with coins as her weapon. Last time, Magneto mentioned that Quinn likes playing with coins…” With a soft laugh, Yu Zi Yu called out, “Summon Old Ninth, Brewmaster.”

“Yes, Master.” At his command, an Elven maid bowed and left quietly.

Not long after…

“Haha… Master, here I come…” Accompanied by a hearty laugh, a chubby figure with a straw hat slowly approached Yu Zi Yu.

However, compared to the past, this chubby figure now seemed far more enigmatic and unfathomable.

Even the straw hat he wore was of Tier-5 quality, radiating a faint, mysterious glow.

Silavin: Wait… Chestnut coloured hair? Isn’t that Misaka?
