Chapter 169 Miniature Nuclear Explosion
Chapter 169 Miniature Nuclear Explosion.
"Hmph," Geng Ya sneered, and he continued his impulsive actions.
It was like plowing the land; wherever he went, monsters, flowers, and smog all vanished.
The presence of several powerful awakened individuals causing trouble within the smog has slowed down the expansion of the gray smog considerably.
In fact, over time, the smog is getting slower and slower to dissipate.
This wasn't because the Corpse Mother was showing great mercy; it was simply because she lacked the energy to expand.
Currently, most of the Corpse Mother's energy is being poured into these super-awakened individuals.
Especially Vierlan, that child is quite exaggerated.
She has become even stronger.
Even if the Corpse Mother tried her best, she couldn't kill Vierlan.
On the contrary, Vierlan caused enormous damage to the smog and monsters.
"Perhaps, we don't need to run away anymore."
With a deafening roar, a gigantic demon-slaying blade shot straight into the sky like a meteorite.
A large gash has been cut into the smog.
With a flick of her wrist, Vierlan created another giant demon-slaying blade, slashing horizontally in front of her.
With a crash, numerous monsters were cleaved in half at the waist. Further away, many houses collapsed with a deafening roar.
Vierlan's destructive power is truly terrifying; every move she makes causes severe damage to the surrounding world.
In the blink of an eye, an area within a kilometer radius was completely cleared.
"Roar!" Even the Corpse Mother's mist avatar was somewhat timid at this moment and dared not get too close.
She had already sensed a strong threat from Villan.
"Too fast, too fast, this is not fair..." the Corpse Mother roared in despair.
Vierlan is such an over-the-top fighter, getting stronger the more she fights. It seems like if you can't kill her instantly, then all her enemies are doomed.
In fact, based on the current situation, this is indeed the case.
"Great ancient demons..." The Corpse Mother's tone turned wistful again as she prayed sincerely.
"Give me more power, give me the power to destroy this new savior."
"For countless years, countless monsters have been trying."
"But our efforts have not brought us victory; we are failing time and time again."
"We need more strength."
The Corpse Mother prayed.
Her voice grew louder and louder, and more and more eerie.
"Death." As Villan listened, her scalp tingled; she sensed a sense of danger.
With a "whoosh," Vierlan dashed forward, her entire body seemingly transforming into a purple-blue demon-slaying blade, and flew directly towards the target.
In the blink of an eye, Vierlan traversed the sky and arrived in front of the Corpse Mother.
"Bang!" The Corpse Mother was smashed to pieces.
"Haha, we've got this in the bag!" Sally laughed.
She never expected that Vierlan's comeback would be so swift.
"Roar, roar, roar," however, the Corpse Mother was not dead; her voice was rising from underground.
The rich fragrance of flowers permeated the air, completely enveloping the area around Villan.
The smog was also surging violently nearby.
"Get out of my way." Vierlan swung her sword, cleaving through the smog.
"I refuse to believe that I can't find your true form."
Vierlan began her attack on the earth.
Sally rushed over and started helping too.
At the site of Old Pete's old house.
The physical form of the Corpse Mother slowly crawled out from underground.
With a "boom," endless petals were released from her as the origin.
And it spread in all directions.
"Such awakened individuals must be killed."
"I would give my life for this."
The Corpse Mother is just like the weak awakened ones who were willing to give their lives before; she is also full of murderous intent towards awakened ones.
An ordinary awakened being wouldn't actually act like this.
But Vierlan's talent is just too good.
At the same time, their origin as demons lies in the ancient gods who destroyed the world. And the will of the ancient gods is also mixed into their thoughts.
In this way, their will to destroy the world is also a form of destruction.
Anyone who can influence or prevent them from destroying the world is their enemy.
Although their intentions are bad, their perseverance is very similar to that of the Awakened.
With a whooshing sound, countless roots sprouted from the ground in all directions and extended toward where Villan and the others were.
...
The battle raged on amidst the smog.
A black, steel giant charged from afar.
"This scene is quite impressive; it seems to possess the power of an extraordinary master?"
Inside the mecha, Loya was carefully observing the smog.
Unfortunately, the smog was too cunning; his gaze couldn't penetrate it at all.
"My child, you didn't die inside, did you?"
The scale of the battle was so large that even Loya was somewhat discouraged. He believed that the rookie Vierlan would have absolutely no chance of surviving such a massive, bloody battle.
Well, Loya was busy forging the mecha, and Veran hadn't been bragging about anything, so he was unaware of Veran's talent, let alone the power she possessed.
This led him to make a wrong judgment.
"Since that's the case, then I'll let it be buried with you."
Loya felt a little sad; after all, that was a child he had raised, and he certainly had feelings for him.
However, Loya's emotions are cheap; he is only feeling uncomfortable right now, not heartbroken or on the verge of death.
"Now, I'll show you the power of the Light of Nuclear Peace."
Loya moved swiftly, and a cannon barrel emerged from the mech's shoulder.
A loud "boom" followed.
Something that bounced up like a grenade was ejected and quickly flew towards the center of the smog.
The bomb looked ordinary, but Koloa reacted strongly.
Immediately afterwards, as if bitten on the butt by a demonic dog, he retreated desperately.
After about four seconds, a pale light appeared in the smog.
Then, it expanded relentlessly, growing ever brighter.
Under the light, the smog is rapidly disintegrating.
Monsters and the like, exposed to the light of nuclear peace, were rapidly collapsing.
It's as if everything in the world is dying out, heaven and earth are ending, and everything is sinking into the end.
"Roar!" The Corpse Mother's roar echoed from within the smog.
There was a strong sense of bewilderment mixed in with it.
She seemed confused as to why such a terrifying thing had appeared in her territory.
The smog was also rushing in all directions.
They wanted to escape the reach of the nuclear light.
"What the hell is this?" On the edge of the smog, Geng Ya stared blankly at the light bursting forth in front of him, feeling an unprecedented sense of threat.
"Is it a monster?" Geng Ya was filled with doubt and uncertainty, but his body's instinct made him curl up into a ball and sink into the earth.
The soil beneath his steel body, like paper, was rapidly collapsing.
In just a moment, Geng Ya had run more than ten meters underground, but he was still sprinting.
Not only him, but everyone with obvious intelligence in the smog was desperately trying to protect themselves.
And this has a huge impact on smog.
The ability to cause disorientation inherent in smog has also vanished.
Unfortunately, by this point, even if you've found your sense of direction, it's useless.
"Protect." Vierlan, who was scraping the ground, released her purple-blue sword light, creating layers of protective shields for herself and Sally.
They were closer to the explosion; they had no time to escape. All they could do was set up defenses and try to withstand the attack. Sally was also deploying a fire shield.
"We were so close to victory, why did this happen?" Sally was almost in despair.
Since arriving in Kane Town, her experiences have been like a rollercoaster, full of unexpected twists and turns.
Victory seemed within reach, but then some unknown, eerie thing appeared again.
Yes, Sally could also see that this thing wasn't just targeting them, but also the Corpse Mother and Kane Town.
In short, this was an indiscriminate terrorist attack.
To get back to the point, it all sounds like a long story, but in reality, it only took less than three seconds.
In just a few seconds, the light of nuclear peace completely engulfed Kane Town and soared into the sky.
Looking from afar, it seems as if a small sun is rising on the horizon.
Is this a miracle?
In the distance, one can see numerous cities and villages.
Even from hundreds of miles away, it can be seen clearly.
And then came the deafening roar of the explosion.
The sea of clouds in the sky was shaken, forming the bizarre mushroom cloud pattern.
Yes, light travels faster than sound; sound arrives later.
"What exactly is going on?"
Following Gengya's orders, Fei Ke and the other awakened ones desperately retreated.
They had stopped, staring blankly at the light of nuclear peace.
Because they were closer to each other, their feelings were more profound.
However, they weren't extremely close, so they weren't affected by the nuclear explosion.
Five or six seconds later, the light began to fade.
Now, a huge hole has appeared in the sky.
A breeze blew by, carrying with it intense heat.
And new clouds also gathered around the big hole.
"Chief, how are the monsters...?" Fei Ke's heart was racing. This unexpected turn of events gave him a strong urge to investigate.
"You guys go first, I'll go back and check."
Fei Ke was decisive; as soon as he had this question, he couldn't wait to find the answer.
"Let's go together." The other awakened individuals nearby also didn't want to leave.
They were also very curious about the explosion and the town of Kane after it happened.
“No, this is too dangerous.” Fei Ke said solemnly, “You guys go back first. If there is any danger, I will die myself. The loss will not be great.”
Everyone looked at them with disapproval.
Fei Ke said helplessly, "Don't be reckless. We've already lost enough Awakened Ones here. If you're all gone too, then the ordinary people around here will become nothing more than food for the monsters."
This statement left everyone with no choice but to comply.
Compared to the so-called "big bang ending," saving humanity is of course more important.
"Feike, you have to be careful. Don't take any risks. If you sense anything is wrong, leave as soon as possible. Don't do anything foolish!" A woman said with a worried expression.
Fei Ke forced a smile: "Don't worry, Ai Li, I value my life very much."
...
"Wow, watching a miniature nuclear explosion from a mortal's perspective is truly spectacular."
On the horizon, Loya piloted his mecha and flew back.
"In the future, we can prepare more miniature nuclear bombs. The effect of these things in this world is truly terrifying."
Loya smiled and said, "Unfortunately, there are too few materials in the factory, and not enough varieties. I've only managed to manufacture this small number of miniature nuclear bombs."
"My child, your father has avenged you. May you find peace in the world of the dead."
Loya fell from the sky and landed at the very center of the nuclear explosion.
Here is a huge pit with a diameter of nearly 50,000 meters. At the bottom of the pit is charred lava, which is a special kind of rock formed by the high temperature generated by the explosion.
And here, nowadays, there are no other strange things besides these.
This place looks very simple and clean.
However, there was still some smog at the edge of the pit, though it wasn't as thick as before.
Meanwhile, the area around the crater was also dark, and it seemed that several layers of the ground had been blown away by the shockwave from the previous explosion.
And the area affected by the aftershocks is even larger.
"I almost got blown up."
To the east, outside the crater, a sliver of purplish-blue light suddenly appeared.
Upon closer inspection, a small pit can be seen inside the light.
A disheveled Vierlan was kneeling down, using the Demon Slayer Blade to support her body.
Sally was lying next to her.
However, while Vierlan was exhausted, she was not physically injured. Sally, on the other hand, was in a terrible state; her fire had been extinguished, and her skin was torn and tattered all over.
"There's a strange energy eroding my flesh and blood,"
"However, with the extraordinary power of the awakened, they can be eliminated."
Sally quickly said.
Well, these miniature nuclear bombs are just ordinary ones, after all. They don't contain any extraordinary power to achieve a qualitative change. Although ordinary nuclear bombs also have radiation viruses, these are far less potent than the radiation viruses created by Loya himself.
In short, while this thing does have an effect on powerful superhumans, it is not particularly fatal.
"Captain Sally, are you alright?" Vierlan asked with concern.
She still felt a little guilty: "If only I were stronger, then the captain wouldn't have gotten hurt."
Sally smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine. With my constitution, this kind of injury will heal completely in just a few days."
...
On the other side. In a more distant region.
"Bang!" The earth exploded.
A steel giant leaped out from below.
Geng Ya, whose entire body was flushed and radiating a high-temperature aura, shivered and patted his body to cool himself down.
Yes, he's in better shape than Ireland, Sally.
The previous explosion only burned him, but his steel body made him very resilient. Ordinary high temperatures would hardly kill him.
"What happened inside?" Gengya rushed forward step by step.
"Roar." Suddenly, a woman's voice came from the northeast direction of the large pit.
The thin haze that permeated the surroundings seemed to come alive at this moment, rushing relentlessly toward the area where the sound was being transmitted.
"Monster?"
"Monster?"
"Monster?"
Gengya, Sali, and Vierlan, who had fought against the Corpse Mother, were immediately alerted.
"Kill!" Geng Ya immediately changed direction and rushed forward.
Vierlan and Sally, who seemed to be closer, gritted their teeth and rushed over as well.
"Ouch!" Sally had only run a dozen meters when she collapsed to the ground. She was too weak to continue fighting for the time being.
“Captain,” Villan leaped back and helped Sally up.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine. Go and take care of that monster. That way, we'll have won this battle completely," Sally urged Villan, telling her not to waste any time.
