108: Arya's shock

However,

And as the Divine Summer commander gave the order,

The final devastating blow... descended!

"Mecha forces! Attack!"

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Fifty second-generation menshen mecha simultaneously drew the ultra-gigantic vibranium ship-slashing sabers from their backs!

The blades, over two hundred meters long, reflected a soul-shattering cold gleam under the aurora borealis!

These steel titans took earth-shattering steps,

Like moving mountains, they crashed into the battle!

They didn't even need any intricate moves, just the simplest, most brutal horizontal slashes and vertical chops!

Pfft—!!!

With one sweep of the blade, wherever its edge reached, more than a dozen giant bears were instantly cut in half at the waist, like butter sliced by a hot knife!

Limbs and internal organs flew!

Bang!!!

Elder Iron Claw, a Hundredth Order powerhouse, tried his best to block the advance of a mecha, but with a simple chop from its gigantic ship-slashing saber,

He was sent flying over a hundred meters, bear and claw alike!

He slammed heavily onto the ice, rolling a dozen times before stopping, a mouthful of suppressed blood gushing out,

His internal organs felt as if they had shifted!

He raised his head,

Looking at the red mecha that continued its slaughter like a God of War,

His eyes were filled with absurdity, shock, and a hint of despair!

"How is this possible?!"

"The Blue Star Spiritual Energy Revival has only been going on for a mere twenty-odd days! Such a short time! How could they have evolved so rapidly?! Not only have they built an army of all 80th Order... they've even... even built more than fifty terrifying mecha of Hundredth Order strength?!"

Watching his clan's army crumble like a collapsing mountain, being slaughtered by humans like chopping melons and dicing vegetables,

Elder Iron Claw's heart ached,

He knew that if they continued fighting, the Iceborn Clan's elites would be annihilated here!

He forcefully suppressed his surging blood and qi, using all his strength to let out a mournful and desperate howl:

"Retreat! All forces retreat!! Retreat to the ruins!!!"

Woo—!!!

The mournful sound of the retreat horn echoed.

The Iceborn Clan warriors, already terrified, felt as if they had been granted a great pardon. They no longer cared about formation or dignity, turning around and using all four claws,

They fled desperately in the direction they came from, looking utterly disheveled!

On the pristine white ice plain,

A cruel path paved with broken bear corpses, internal organs, and blood was left behind.

Who would have thought,

The Iceborn Clan, which had lain dormant for ten thousand years and prided itself as the true Overlord of Blue Star,

Their grand debut battle... was actually beaten so badly, fleeing like rats, by humans they regarded as ants!

...On the peak of the ice mountain, cold winds howled.

Aria's deep purple pupils constricted slightly, watching everything unfolding on the ice plain below with disbelief.

The once imposing and arrogant Iceborn Clan army was now fleeing in disarray like stray dogs!

The pristine white ice plain was stained with large patches of dazzling blood and broken bear corpses,

And that silver steel defense line was steadily advancing like the most ruthless harvester, relentlessly pursuing the fugitives.

She subconsciously raised her pale hand and gently covered her red lips, which were slightly agape in shock.

"This... how is this possible?!"

Her soft gasp was swallowed by the wind.

"Only a few days have passed... how could the strength of these Divine Summer people have made such a terrifying leap?!"

Her memory was incredibly clear.

Not long ago, in the depths of Mount Fuji, these Divine Summer people launched a desperate charge against her to rescue Su Chen.

At that time, their strongest warrior's strength was only hovering around the tenth order!

Although those huge vibranium mecha were tricky, their energy fluctuations were at most 50th Order level, relying on the inherent sturdiness and firepower of vibranium itself.

But now... the ten thousand silver warriors patrolling the battlefield below, the energy surging within them had all reached above 80th Order!

And the energy fluctuations emanating from the core reactors of those fifty second-generation mecha, like crimson mountains, were firmly standing at the threshold of the Hundredth Order!

In just a few days, their overall strength had leaped across dozens of Realms... This speed of transformation completely defied all her understanding of life evolution!

“Such a miraculous leap... how did they do it?!”

Aria murmured to herself. Even with her extensive experience as the World-Ending Spider Queen, this scene was nothing short of an incredible "miracle".

"Hehe, of course the improvement is fierce!"

A familiar and somewhat playful, grand voice sounded unexpectedly close behind Aria,

"Because they all injected my serum!"

Aria's delicate body trembled violently, and she turned her head sharply!

She saw a mountain... a black, terrifyingly spiky, flesh mountain emanating a suffocating sense of oppression,

It had silently appeared behind her at some unknown point!

It was Su Chen!

He merely stood there quietly, his shadow completely engulfing Aria.

The oppressive feeling brought by his massive size was more than double what it was a few days ago!

"You...!"

Aria's pupils instantly dilated. She subconsciously took half a step back, her sharp limbs carving deep marks in the ice.

"Your size... how did it get so big?! It's only been a few days?! What... what did you eat?!"

She saw it clearly!

A few days ago, when they parted ways at Mount Fuji, this Kraken's arm span was less than six hundred meters!

And now... it definitely exceeded twelve hundred meters!

It had more than doubled!

And his Realm... it was clearly 18th Order before, but now that surging energy fluctuation... had actually skyrocketed to 40th Order?!

This speed of evolution couldn't even be described as eating fertilizer... this was like riding a rocket to the sky!

"Big Guy..."

Aria's voice carried a hint of dryness and bewilderment that she herself hadn't noticed, "What... what kind of monster are you?!"

She knew the legends of the Kraken very well.

This race indeed had infinite potential, truly the supreme beings of the deep sea.

But their growth also followed basic laws—slow and protracted!

For a juvenile stage to grow from 1st Order to 40th Order, without hundreds or thousands of years of accumulation and consumption, it was simply a fool's dream!

This was an iron law verified by billions of races across the universe through time!

But this iron law... was shattered to pieces on the guy in front of her!

In less than a month, he had covered the path that his kin would need five hundred or even a thousand years to complete!

This could no longer be explained by extraordinary Talent... this was simply... defying the heavens!

"Hehe, it's nothing, nothing,"

Su Chen scratched his huge back of the head awkwardly with a tentacle tip, emitting a creaking sound like metal rubbing,

"It's just that the food has been better these past two days, so with proper nutrition, I grew a bit faster."

He paused, his tone becoming excited, and his huge eyeballs turned towards the distant ice crystal ruins:

"Speaking of which, I have to thank you for telling me about such a 'good place' hidden in the Arctic, otherwise I wouldn't have known there were so many 'high-quality ingredients' hidden here!"
