Chapter 210: Chapter 120 War Ghost from Hell!
On Standby!
The towering tentacles that pierced straight into the sky suddenly lashed out.
An hundred-meter-tall building instantly crumbled, and a roar of dust and debris erupted.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Several more tentacles burst out of the ground, one after another, black and writhing.
And the area they were tearing through was precisely where Mu Fan had just been looking.
But it wasn’t over yet; the ground shook violently, and a massive shockwave spread out from that spot, shattering the road in an instant.
Upturned pavement and toppled buildings turned the area into ruins.
Mu Fan’s eyes, sharp as a hawk’s, looked up into the sky!
A black figure, as tall as an ancient tower, rose from the ground, reaching for the heavens!
The eight giant tentacles around it swept through the surrounding buildings, leaving only destruction in their wake!
At that moment, the headquarters of the Purple Jade Star’s Military Department in Zone A issued an urgent alarm:
“High-level alert: A Big King Land Squid has appeared again in the eastern part of Zone A!
Another emergency report, the Ghostly Floating Beasts are starting to move towards the direction of the Big King Land Squid.”
“Additional information: A subterranean tunnel has appeared near the Big King Land Squid, and a large number of…
Fierce Beasts have been sighted!”
Energy sensors above the city directly projected images of this region onto screens in the Purple Jade Military’s war room.
Deputy Commander Alexey of the Purple Jade Star Military watched as the true form of the Big King Land Squid emerged from the ground and the surrounding tunnels appeared.
“Special Division Three of Zone A, Mecha Army, deploy!”
Following Alexey’s orders, hundreds of mechas burst forth from the outskirts of Zone A.
The Special Division Three’s Mecha Army, with a full complement of five hundred units, including twenty custom Warrior-grade units provided by the military!
This team, designated for sudden assault events, was the core force of the Purple Jade Military.
Alexey murmured to himself, “We can’t let the damage spread further, because to the east…
lies Purple Jade’s heavy industrial district!
That’s the lifeline of this planet.”
To the east of Zone A lay a plain at the foot of a mountain, a relatively vast area with specially constructed transport facilities, and supported by key government policies.
This became the gathering area for nearly all of Purple Jade Star’s first-class heavy industries.
The metallic glow of this steel forest was essentially the lifeline of the Purple Jade Star!
More than 60% of the planet’s industrial output was produced here.
If they allowed that area to be destroyed by the giant monster, it would take Purple Jade Star over a decade to recover.
The Mecha Army was 80 kilometers away from here, and even the fastest Air Combat Mecha would need 5 minutes to arrive.
No one knew, and the monitors at the military headquarters certainly didn’t show, that a young man’s heart was racing with even more urgency at this moment.
…
Boom!
When those two giant tentacles obliterated the building in front of them, and the Big King Land Squid started to move, Mu Fan finally confirmed that the colossal Fierce Beast was heading in his direction.
And the direction it was heading was exactly where Harry and the others were located!
Without any hesitation, Mu Fan forcefully stomped the ground, and his body began to rapidly bounce along the cracked roads.
The rush of air whistled past his ears, but it was accompanied by the thunderous noise from behind.
That was the sound of the Big King Land Squid on the move.
More terrifyingly, amidst this booming echo, the sounds of a stampeding beast herd began to intermingle!
A tide of beasts!
Emerging from the tunnels underground, a gathering of Fierce Beasts formed a dark ocean that spread and thundered forward!
Although he was separated by several streets and numerous buildings, the sound already painted a vivid picture in Mu Fan’s mind.
Mu Fan’s eyes reddened, and with each step, he hit the ground with more force than before.
“Black, access the surveillance.
Have Harry and the others made it to safety?”
Black’s voice came through, “Based on the trajectory of the fallen spacecraft, the impact should be within human tolerable limits.
However, no one has emerged from that spacecraft since you landed, leading to the deduction that they are unconscious.
To reiterate, this is just a speculation.”
Black’s words did not reassure Mu Fan in the slightest.
A preliminary Beast Tide was forming behind him, and at this rate, within a few minutes, the Big King Land Squid, along with a massive horde of Fierce Beasts, would engulf the spacecraft.
By then…
it would be too late for Harry and the others.
No, that couldn’t happen!
Mu Fan nearly crushed his teeth in frustration.
In such a moment, would everything he had done be in vain?
Mu Fan’s arms swung violently as he ran, and his heart started pounding fiercely as his emotions surged.
His companions were ahead; could he really stand by and watch them die?
No!
Absolutely not!
He had promised to see them again!
“Another piece of bad news: the Ghostly Floating Beast is moving towards us and is very fast—it will arrive here in an hour,” Black’s voice resounded in his ear, then paused,
“Mu Fan, to ensure the survival of the host, my first suggestion as an Intelligent Life-form is—flee the danger zone.”
Hiss~~~~
Mu Fan braced himself on one foot, halting abruptly.
Then, he slowly turned around.
His voice carried an unusual chill, articulating each word, “I must keep my word; I, Mu Fan, will absolutely not be a coward who only knows how to flee!”
From the moment those words left his mouth, Mu Fan’s tone carried a determination to face death.
Black fell silent for several seconds before uttering a “Sorry.”
Mu Fan paid no heed but instead took a few slow steps forward and stood his ground.
Companions, I am standing right here; if these monsters want your lives, they’ll have to step over my dead body!
Why don’t I feel fear when death is this close?
Mu Fan’s eyes closed, and the next second they opened, they had turned blood-red.
Why do I detest the word “run” to my core…
Why is my heart stirring incessantly right now…
Why is my blood boiling and burning…
Why…
Why!!!
Companions, because you are right behind me!
His hands thrust fiercely, and the blood-soaked, solidified shirt he wore burst apart instantly.
Mu Fan stood alone on the broken street.
His aura surged around him.
Flame of Fighting Will!
At this moment, when Mu Fan’s spirit and will were in perfect harmony, the fire that symbolized the most steadfast belief on the Martial Path blazed intensely within the world of the spirit.
As this invisible spiritual inferno blazed, Mu Fan’s chest suddenly began to burn hot.
And the heat grew more and more intense!
It was a searing heat that penetrated his skin, blood, and bones.
Ah!!!!!
Thud-thud, thud-thud, thud-thud,
On this abandoned street, there erupted a deep, surging beat from around Mu Fan!
The voice of Black in his ears tried to speak but was instantly as if cut off by some invisible force field.
The blood in the youth’s pupils turned into two blossoming flames of fury.
In the deepest part of his mind, as his heart throbbed powerfully like a drumbeat, in that instant of perfect unity between will and belief, there emerged a voice that looked down upon the world.
The voice was deep and resonated with a momentum that regarded everything else insignificant,
“Let the Flames of Three Realms soar…
be graced by the Red Lotus Flame.”
“War Ghost Rebirth…
nature shall record the calamity of annihilation!”
“Wretched body…
Agasura, at your command!”
Mu Fan’s gaze suddenly pierced through the void!
