195: Chapter 196 Nuclear Weapons Unleash Their Power

Song Yang forcibly stabilized his body as he was sent flying backward through the air, his eyes locked onto the flawless golden scale on the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor's forehead.

Indestructible.

The sharpness of the "spear" could not even leave a single scratch on it.

The defensive power of this overlord of the skies exceeded his worst estimates.

Continuing to use the spear would be no different from throwing an egg against a rock.

In a flash, he twisted his wrist, and the spear vanished, replaced by a giant blade with a ferocious design, as wide as a door panel!

It was the very same alien weapon that had slain the Black Dragon!

"Screee—!!!"

A screech, sharp enough to pierce eardrums, rang out—no longer filled with previous annoyance, but now carrying a hint of terror!

The Golden-Winged Beast Emperor's molten-gold eyes stared fixedly at the giant blade in Song Yang's hands, seemingly sensing a threat!

Boom!!!

The blood vine binding its body could no longer withstand the beast emperor's burst of power and was shattered into pieces in an instant!

The freed beast emperor did not hesitate in the slightest; it folded its wings, and its massive body transformed into a golden meteor of death, not to flee, but to charge at Song Yang with an even more violent ferocity!

It wanted to crush this ant that made it feel threatened, along with the lethal weapon in his hands!

Facing this earth-shattering strike, Song Yang did not dodge or evade.

He met the golden meteor, swinging his blade from above in a strike that seemed to split the heavens and earth!

Meanwhile, atop a partially collapsed office building several kilometers away.

Several figures were staring intently at the distant battlefield, their faces filled with shock.

"Madman!"

"That man is absolutely a madman!"

A burly man with a scar on his chin could not hide his shock, "That's a beast emperor! How dare he engage it in a head-on fight?"

In their field of vision, Song Yang had actively met the beast emperor's attack.

Boom—!!!

The massive black blade and the golden figure collided violently in mid-air!

No technique, no evasion; it was the most primitive and savage clash of power!

A visible shockwave exploded outward, plowing a deep trench through the ruins below.

That tiny human figure, like a small boat in a raging storm, was violently sent flying into the sky by the immense force!

The Golden-Winged Beast Emperor also let out a painful cry; a wound deep enough to see bone had appeared on its claws, which were capable of tearing through steel, and golden blood dripped down like molten lava.

Song Yang's body tumbled a thousand meters high in the air, his chest churning with internal energy, and waves of tearing pain shot through the arm holding the giant blade.

But he paid it no mind, his eyes locked firmly on the scene below.

There, the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor let out painful roars, golden blood gushing from the wound on its claw and dripping onto the ruins, corroding small, smoking pits into the concrete ground.

It worked!

This monster is not invincible!

Killing intent surged in Song Yang's eyes; forcing down his injuries, he prepared to adjust his posture and follow up with another strike with thunderous momentum!

However, the moment before he was about to dive—

"Beep—beep—beep—"

The warning alarm before a nuclear weapon launch rang out across the entire sky without warning!

With a thought from Song Yang, the remaining blood vine deep underground broke through the soil once again!

They were even more frenzied than before, like scarlet giant pythons, not seeking to wound the enemy, but only to delay it, tightly binding the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor's massive body.

The Golden-Winged Beast Emperor seemed to have sensed the fatal threat from the sky; it gave up attacking Song Yang and instead frantically tore at the vines on its body.

For the first time, an emotion named "fear" appeared in its molten-gold eyes!

Song Yang, meanwhile, flew rapidly toward an underground bunker.

Soon, a barely perceptible silver line flashed across the horizon.

Immediately afterward, a missile trailing a long plume of fire tore through the clouds, appearing in everyone's vision with an aura of death capable of destroying everything!

Its target was none other than the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor, which was firmly trapped in place by the blood vine!

Time seemed to stretch infinitely at this moment.

The missile that tore through the firmament arrived in front of the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor the very instant before it broke free from the last blood vine.

There was no earth-shattering roar.

The world first fell into absolute silence.

Immediately after, a white ball of light, brighter and hotter than the sun, suddenly expanded in mid-air!

The Golden-Winged Beast Emperor's head, which had just been raised and was flashing with rage and terror, failed to even let out a cry before it was instantly vaporized and melted in the extreme light and heat.

Its indestructible golden wings and claws capable of tearing the firmament were as fragile as paper before this weapon, which represented the pinnacle of destructive power in human civilization.

Its massive body, starting from the head, was silently erased.

Boom——————!!!

The thunder, delayed by several seconds, finally arrived late.

A massive, ominous mushroom cloud rose slowly over the suburbs, blotting out the sun.

Following closely behind was a violent shockwave that flattened everything on the ground outward!

The earth trembled and wailed violently, as if it were about to be completely torn apart by this force!

Inside the underground bunker.

The violent tremors caused dust to fall from the ceiling.

Song Yang leaned against the metal wall, waiting for the commotion outside to end.

Although it was said that nuclear radiation would remain after a nuclear explosion, Song Yang did not believe it would affect him.

A minute later, the tremors on the surface finally subsided completely.

The heavy metal door was pushed open from the inside, and Song Yang walked out of the shadows of the underground bunker.

He looked up.

The sky was shrouded by that massive, ominous mushroom cloud that had not yet fully dissipated, casting large, eerie shadows.

The ground beneath his feet could no longer be called ground.

With the explosion point as the center, everything within several kilometers had been razed to the ground, the charred earth turned into glass.

Song Yang flew toward the center of the explosion with a blank expression.

There, the remains of the Golden-Winged Beast Emperor were scattered in pieces across the scorched earth.

Its once indestructible golden body was now reduced to a few charred, misshapen fragments, the largest no more than half a meter long.

As for his blood vine, it had long since turned into basic ash at the center of the explosion, leaving not even a trace of cinder behind.

Meanwhile, on battlefields across the city, the participating Evolvers erupted in earth-shaking cheers!

"It's dead! The beast emperor is dead!"

"Hahahaha! We won! We won!"

To them, that rising mushroom cloud was not a symbol of destruction, but a bugle call of victory!

With the beast emperor dead, the remaining King-level Monsters were leaderless; they saw unprecedented hope in this city defense battle!

Atop the partially collapsed office building, the burly man with the scar also let out a long sigh of relief, sat down on the ground, and pulled a flattened cigarette from his pocket, but he couldn't get it to light no matter what.

"Damn it, it's finally over."

A young man wearing glasses who looked refined and scholarly beside him was observing the battle situation in various places when, suddenly, his expression changed.

"Something's wrong! Captain, look!"

The burly man with the scar snatched the binoculars: "What's all the fuss about? Did you see a ghost?"

However, when he aimed the binoculars at another part of the city, the relaxed look on his face instantly froze.

In his field of vision, a giant rhinoceros, eight or nine stories tall, which had originally been forced into retreat by a dozen Evolvers, suddenly stopped moving.

It ignored the blades hacking at its body, and its massive head turned sharply to look toward the suburbs—the direction of the nuclear explosion!

It wasn't just it!

On the other side, the flying King-level Monster entangled with the military's heavy firepower, and the giant spider queen wreaking havoc in the city center—all the King-level Monsters still rampaging in the city, at this moment, unanimously gave up on their current opponents.

They did not flee, nor was there any chaos.

"They are moving toward the explosion point!"

The bespectacled youth's voice trembled, "Their target is the same person!"

The burly man with the scar's pupils suddenly constricted.

He saw eight massive, ferocious figures rushing from different directions in the city toward the center of the scorched earth beneath the mushroom cloud!

Their goal was to avenge their emperor!

Center of the scorched earth.

Song Yang finally dug out a golden scale, the same size as himself, from a piece of flesh.

The surface of the scale was covered in cracks, but inside, it seemed that molten lava-like radiance was still slowly flowing.

Just as he stowed the scale into his system space, the earth shook violently once again.

Violent footsteps came from all directions, shaking the rubble on the ground so that it jumped.

Song Yang slowly stood up and looked around.

At the edge of the horizon, eight massive silhouettes tore through the smoke and dust, surrounding him in the very center of this dead zone.
