After the thirteen colossal objects descended upon the world like a vast abyss, countless creatures on Earth felt extreme panic and fear, and began a frantic struggle for survival.
Humans are certainly among them.
Survivor bases across continents are digging underground survival zones at top speed to avoid detection. At least five Fire Seed Travelers have been assigned to each base. They are fleeing in the opposite direction based on the routes taken by the thirteen giants as captured by satellite surveillance, in order to preserve the spark of human civilization as much as possible.
The two remaining SafeCity bases in Washington state did the same.
For three consecutive days, Huazhou Satellite "Sky Eye" closely monitored the movement of the wisteria flower behemoth. The monitors saw the horrific scene of the Sixth Security Base being torn apart by the giant vine monster in an instant. They also saw the wisteria flower behemoth, after destroying the Sixth Security Base, seem to think and sense for a moment before slowly but powerfully moving northeastward toward the location of the Second Security Base.
Clearly, the giant wisteria flower had chosen the Second City Safe Base as its next target.
However, the survivors at the Ninth City Safe Base on the southeast coast did not feel any particular joy about this.
During the video call, the general's expression showed a hint of helplessness, which eventually settled into determination: "Old friend, that behemoth is heading in our direction... It has probably sensed the energy of the three core fragments in our base."
"We will most likely not escape this battle, but we will do our best to preserve the lives of every survivor."
"Starting today, we will arrange for survivor teams to head to your Ninth City. On the way... I hope they have a safe journey."
"If they are lucky enough to reach the Ninth City, then the fate of our Huazhou will be in your hands, my old friend."
The Ninth City's manager was originally a refined middle-aged man in good spirits and health, but in just a few days, his sideburns have turned completely white, and deep furrows have formed between his brows.
He looked at the general on the screen, whose hair was also gray and whose face was resolute, opened his mouth as if to say something, but in the end all his words turned into a sigh.
"good."
"I will do my best."
He had intended to ask the general if he would come to the Ninth Safe Base with the survivor squad, but after thinking it over, he knew it was a foolish question with no other answer.
As the ruler of a city, every general and city lord will live and die with his city.
If the Ninth City were to be attacked by the giant wisteria flower, he would make the same choice as the General.
Moreover, even though Ninth City is temporarily out of danger, they still have just as many crises to deal with—
From the day the thirteen colossi descended, the research institute at the Ninth City Security Base discovered that nutrients in the soil were being lost at an alarming rate, making it almost impossible to grow food on the land. Under these circumstances, every grain of food that remained became extremely precious.
Fortunately, the giant rabbits eat grass; otherwise, the meat in the base wouldn't be enough to feed these giant rabbits and everyone else for twenty days.
The stale food might be enough to sustain everyone for two months if they cut back on their food, but will this disaster end within two months?
It now looks like an unsolvable death.
Due to food shortages, several elite hunting teams in the base set their sights on the giant rabbit population. After all, the rabbits looked like huge mountains of flesh and seemed much easier to bully than the wisteria flower behemoth.
Some of them were persuaded before the operation, and of the two teams that ultimately went to work, one team successfully hunted down a giant rabbit, while the other failed. But in the end, all members of both teams were brutally devoured by the giant rabbit leader.
The giant rabbit leader showed all of humanity through its actions that in the face of extreme survival, there is no distinction between prey and hunter; rabbits can also eat people.
The atmosphere in the entire base suddenly became tense, and the giant rabbits gathered together again and returned to their original forest.
This incident enraged the Ninth City's administrator, but he was powerless to win back the giant rabbits' hearts.
Fortunately, some elite hunting teams and the military got along very well with the giant rabbits. Even after the giant rabbits left, they maintained a mutually supportive relationship with the Ninth City. In fact, the giant rabbits even took away a batch of survivors from the Ninth City as a precaution.
While the survivors of Ninth City were trying every means to find food in the surrounding area and observing the progress of the thirteen giants, Gou Fugui was already conducting experiments in the luxurious villa in Ninth City that they had been assigned.
When Fugui Meiren decided to use the panda Fugui to participate in the final battle of the apocalypse, he began to think about how to unleash the true power of the panda Fugui as an "ancient mythical beast".
For two days in a row, he wandered around the villa in his original panda form, experimenting with various methods to increase his strength—
I ate a lot in an attempt to grow bigger, but unfortunately, apart from gaining three pounds in two days and having a rounder face, I didn't change at all.
He followed Xie Tianlang to learn a special method for finding the Ren and Du meridians to practice Qigong. However, it turned out that the panda's Ren and Du meridians were probably different from those of humans. Although he practiced Tai Chi quite well, Xie Tianlang was able to use the energy of Tai Chi to smash a boulder with a single slap. When he stretched out his claws, he only left four claw marks on the stone.
It was obvious that he had not unleashed the hidden power of the panda Fugui at all.
So at this moment, the chubby panda was sprawled on the sofa, carefully reading the explanation of the special circumstances of Panda Fugui's second innate skill—
When the world is free from the suppression of laws and possesses mysterious powers that cannot be explained by science, the power of ancient mythical beasts is unleashed, with unlimited attack and defense capabilities. They become stronger when faced with stronger opponents and can kill gods if they stand in their way!
When a world is free from the constraints of laws, possesses mysterious powers that science cannot explain, and is further enhanced by sufficient faith, the glory of ancient mythical beasts will illuminate the heavens and earth.
It is clear that the world they are in now is no longer subject to the suppression of laws due to the collapse of the core fragments, and the existence of the thirteen giant objects is proof of the existence of the power of the "mysterious power" core fragments.
Both conditions have been met, so why hasn't Panda Fugui activated the power of the ancient mythical beast?
Or perhaps, to unleash that special power, a "special medium" is also required.
Fugui the panda stretched out his paw and scratched his round belly.
After two days of trying, I really can't keep deceiving myself and ignoring that media condition anymore.
He spread out his claws and moved them, revealing the core fragment that had been synthesized into a large chunk in his palm.
While watching the real-time messages that Song Sanchuan found through the Unicom base network, Xie Tianlang kept a close eye on his Heart Circle.
When he took out the large fragment formed by the fusion of eight pieces from his heart, the emotions that had been unsettling him for the past two days, but which he had forcibly suppressed, surged out again.
He walked to the sofa as if nothing had happened, bent down and smiled at Xin Shangyuan: "What are you looking at this thing for? Quickly put it back into your personal space. Such a large fragment can easily attract giant creatures."
"Or I can help you hide it."
Xie Tianlang reached out but failed to grasp the red fragment in Xin Shangyuan's palm.
The adorable, round black and white dumpling seemed to have read his mind and gave him a cheeky, mischievous grin.
Xie Tianlang fell silent for a moment.
He sat down on the sofa, reached out and hugged the big dumpling, tugging at its ear: "Is this the only option?"
He knew about Panda Fugui's three innate skills, especially the second innate skill, the bloodline skill, which made him clearly feel the difference.
Even if one understands rationally, it is still somewhat difficult to accept emotionally.
Once his Yuanyuan has chosen this method, he will have no chance to regret it or even stop until the final battle against the colossus is over.
Even if he does become the final victor, will he still possess reason? Will he be able to successfully return the world's core? Most importantly—
After he returned the core of the world, the vitality and power that had gathered the entire world separated from his enormous body. At that time, would he still be able to leave this world alive?
This is a question that Xie Tianlang has been suppressing for the past two days, but has already thought about countless times.
This is the fourth world he and Yuanyuan have saved together.
From the initial encounter and appreciation in the first world, to the excessive affection in the second world, and then to the tacit agreement in the third world, he can no longer accept a world without his beloved.
He used to be fearless, but now his weakness is so obvious.
But what he felt helpless yet proud of was that his weakness was never really a weakness.
I just can't keep him safe inside my body forever.
Feeling the man's unease as he gripped his fur, Panda Fugui turned away from Xie Tianlang's arms, looked at him with his beautiful eyes, which had obvious dark circles, and finally bent his paw and kissed Xie Tianlang on the lips as he lowered his head.
"Don't be so nervous, this is a panda! An ancient mythical beast, a national treasure of Huazhou! Don't underestimate this chubby little panda!"
"Oh, and there's a third skill, isn't there? Undying living fossil?"
Suddenly, the panda in his arms pulled out a large white sheet, and as the sheet covered Xie Tianlang and his body, it instantly returned to its original form.
The long-haired youth smiled and kissed the man's lips: "Even if I turn into stone, you must catch my stone and carefully carry it with you when I am resurrected."
The man responded with a sudden tightening of his arms and a passionate kiss.
Of course, there was also Song Sanchuan's ghostly howling outside:
"Aaaaaah! What are you doing?! What are you doing?!"
"I knew something was wrong when that panda suddenly kissed the boss! And now why are you guys still covered by a sheet?!"
"What are you guys doing secretly under the sheets?! Boss, wake up! That's not a real panda, that's my brother Fugui! Don't be fooled by the panda's good looks, if you want to masturbate or kiss, let's all fuck together!"
Song Sanchuan, who had been screaming, suddenly shut his mouth.
Because he saw a slender human figure under the sheet, and long, straight calves exposed as Xie was carrying him in a princess carry.
Song Sanchuan: "..." Who am I? Where am I? Did I miss something?
Si Wuyai pushed up his glasses.
It was expected, wasn't it?
That afternoon, Gou Fugui left the Ninth City Security Base with his dedicated attack giant wolf, dedicated humanoid liaison, and dedicated nutrition and beauty specialist.
The manager didn't know why they left, but he knew these four people wouldn't do anything useless; they simply offered generous supplies and blessings before letting them go.
However, Gou Fugui and his three companions did not bring anything with them.
Before they left, they took the opportunity to visit the giant rabbit clan in the southern forest.
The wealthy beauty only wanted to say goodbye to the rabbits who had just arrived in this world and were already considered his friends, but the giant rabbit leader called out to his beloved weasel just as they were about to leave.
"Chirp chirp!"
Giant bunnies: "Chirp chirp~"
Seeing the big guys' eyes shining and looking at him pitifully, the rich and beautiful woman smiled helplessly yet indulgently.
"Sigh, since this might be the last time we see each other, then I'll dance for you one last time!"
Then, the adorable little weasel, who had grown to 1.5 meters tall but was still small and cute to the rabbits, reappeared. Then, amidst the joyful atmosphere of the giant rabbits clapping their paws, the weasel Fugui danced the final half-hour of the rabbit-themed dance for the giant rabbits.
"Chirp chirp!!" Ah, the bunny is so cute!
"Chirp chirp chirp!!" He's so cute, I love him so much, waaaaah! Bunny will always remember Bunny's darling weasel!
Finally, as the weasel Fugui finished its last leap, the giant rabbit leader lowered its head, extended its giant paw, and chirped.
"Hmm? You want me to close my eyes?" Lingyou Fugui laughed as he looked at the view in front of him that was completely blocked by the giant rabbit paw. "Your paw has completely blocked our view. Even if I open my eyes, I can't see anything!"
However, Lingyou Fugui still closed his eyes with a light breath and a smile.
But when he smelled the strong stench of blood and heard the giant rabbit leader's sudden, weak "chirp," he dared not open his tightly closed eyes for a moment.
But he eventually opened his eyes.
What came into view was a scarlet core fragment composed of two pieces on the snow-white paw of the giant rabbit leader.
And there's the giant rabbit leader's bleeding left eye.
"grumble."
Although we can no longer participate in the next battle, let's cheer each other on with the power of the bunny.
The little weasel's eyes turned red instantly, and its trembling paws lifted three times before it finally grasped the blood-stained crimson fragment in its hand.
It felt as if I had truly grasped the rabbit's power.
They then left behind a pile of food and departed, leaving behind a giant rabbit leader in the forest, complete with bandages and a stylish pirate eye patch.
It is known as the Southeastern Lord of the Giant Forest of Washington State in the Psionic Era, and its hobby is raising beautiful dancing weasels.
* * *
Dawn on the third day after the thirteen colossal creatures descended.
The sun had not yet risen above the horizon, and the world was still shrouded in the last vestiges of darkness.
The colossal wisteria, its roots growing wildly in the earth, finally arrived at its destination. In the despairing gazes of the survivors left behind at the Second City Safe Base, the monster roared and raised its nearly one hundred giant vines, like pillars to the sky, as if it would destroy everything and bring an inescapable apocalypse in the next second.
The general stood atop the city wall, gazing silently at the colossal structure that stretched as far as the eye could see.
Even now, he was still unwilling to accept it.
It was not humanity that lost this battle.
It's just that humans have never had the right to participate in combat.
But, though small and powerless, as if returning to its weakest time, humanity will never lack that fearless heart.
"Prepare to start the countdown to the nuclear explosion."
The general lit a cigarette, a rare occurrence for him, and slowly began to speak.
Even in their dying moments, they want to take someone down with them.
"Reporting to the General, preparations are complete!"
"Nuclear explosion countdown begins."
"ten!"
"Nine!"
"eight!"
"seven!"
"six!"
"five!"
"Four!"
"three!"
"two!!!"
"roar--"
As the all-destroying Heavenly Pillar Vines crashed down from the sky with boundless power, a roar that resounded throughout the land exploded across the heavens and earth.
Then, all those who looked up saw the figure of that huge, black and white beast.
It stretched out its huge claws, carrying the force of a whirlwind, and with all its might, stopped the enormous vines that were about to crash down on the high city walls.
It is like an incomparably powerful ancient demon god.
