Chapter 1757: Strike from Beyond the Heavens
Alatos was irritated.
As a pillar god of Olympus in his former days, he looked down at other divine kingdoms' gods through his nostrils. In this world, besides the Supreme God, there was almost nothing that could make him wary, let alone those ant-like weak humans.
But he never expected that as time flowed on and numerous divine kingdoms collapsed one after another, those humans from Great Xia would still exist unscathed.
Even worse, they had the audacity to actively hunt gods outside their borders!
First, he had been tricked silly by that damned Bya, then after好不容易 exhausting Zeus to death, he lost the Golden Holy Throne to Poseidon, and was even chased by a human for days, almost losing his life!
Alatos was both furious and aggrieved. He could only secretly recuperate under this sea area. Just as he was about to surface to catch his breath, he encountered another group of humans floating on the sea.
Looking at that tiny exploration ship, no bigger than his palm, his anger immediately flared. Surging divine power gathered into a massive divine pillar, crashing down toward the sea surface!
DONG—!!!
Hundreds of meters of waves erupted, and a low rumble echoed through the clouds!
Beneath this pillar that seemed to hold up the heavens, the exploration ship was like a paper toy, instantly torn to shreds. Seven deep-purple cloaks simultaneously flew out, rapidly circling around the towering Greek god.
"Fuck, the ship's gone… Why is this guy in such a bad mood?" Su Zhe, carrying those illusory black wings on his back, couldn't help but curse.
"If you had been chased by someone for days, you'd be in a bad mood too." Fang Mo's pupils transformed into tiger's eyes. "Liu Jun, connect the mental channel."
"Got it."
The next moment, Fang Mo's voice resounded in everyone's minds:
"Everyone, disperse and move away from 073! A god is not something we can face head-on right now. Don't do anything foolish… Yes, I'm talking to you! Lu Baoyou!"
Lu Baoyou's hand had just touched the blade at his waist when his brow furrowed. He silently lowered his hand.
Seven deep-purple figures, carrying seven pairs of black wings on their backs, fluttered around the massive Alatos like scattered butterflies. Their speed was extreme, simultaneously retreating in different directions.
Alatos wanted to give chase, but glancing at the wounds on his body, he冷哼一声 and temporarily suppressed the urge to crush these mosquitoes. He turned to leave.
Sea water churned beneath his mountain-like feet as his form slowly sank beneath the surface. He knew his presence had already been discovered by the humans. No matter how unwilling, he couldn't stay here anymore.
But the [Devil] Squad had worked so hard to track him down, naturally they wouldn't let this go.
"Where's Instructor Shen?"
"Can't reach her on the mental channel. She must not be nearby."
A gleam flashed in Fang Mo's eyes. "Looks like we'll have to use that person…"
He took out a uniquely shaped coin from his chest. The moment they saw this coin, the other members of the [Devil] Squad's expressions all changed. Even Lu Baoyou's mouth twitched, his eyes filled with wariness.
"Commander Lin said this thing can't be used unless absolutely necessary… Are you sure, Captain?" Li Zhenzhen asked tentatively.
"If we let 073 escape this time, we don't know when we'll get another chance." Fang Mo's eyes were filled with determination. "The moment I throw this thing out, everyone run for your lives at full speed!"
"…Understood."
Fang Mo took a deep breath, injected a stream of spiritual power into the coin, then threw it with all his might toward where Alatos was about to sink!
"RUN!!!"
A streak of light flew straight toward Alatos. Almost simultaneously, seven deep-purple figures frantically scattered in all directions!
"What's that?" Alatos sensed something approaching, looked up, and saw above his head, a brilliant radiance suddenly shining!
…
Outer space.
Outside the gray-white Earth, a figure with pristine white six wings floated silently in the void, eyes tightly closed, like a saintly and flawless sculpture.
As a brilliant radiance flashed from somewhere within Earth's mist, his eyes suddenly opened!
A golden domain spread beneath his feet. He was like an awakened ancient guardian, his palm grasping empty air and pulling a golden holy sword from nothingness. The terrifying divine might seemed to burn a hole through space itself!
The next moment, this six-winged seraph standing on golden light raised his holy sword and thrust it precisely toward where the radiance had flashed!
In silence, a massive golden sword glow descended from the boundless deep space.
The blade scraped violently through the atmosphere, turbulent flames intertwining into a mass, like a judgment sword piercing through heaven and earth!
A fiery red hue inexplicably appeared in the dim sky. Alatos's eyes filled with confusion as he looked up. As that sword glow gradually enlarged, his pupils suddenly constricted!
SWOOSH—!!!
The golden blade submerged the sea, like a continuously expanding sun, swallowing everything around it.
The seven deep-purple figures fled desperately outward and could barely escape the coverage of this strike. Standing outside the burning golden domain, relief of having narrowly escaped death appeared in their eyes…
"So terrifying… Is this really something humans can achieve?" Su Zhe couldn't help but exclaim.
"You're not seeing Commander Lin's methods for the first time today." Su Yuan gazed at the still constantly burning golden domain, his expression somewhat yearning. "I wonder when we can become that strong too…"
"Commander Lin went from joining the Night Watch to becoming a god in just five years. We've been with the Night Watch for almost five years now, right?" Su Zhe slapped his hands.
"And the result? Besides Fang Mo and Lu Baoyou, those monsters who've touched the threshold of the apex, the rest of us are still stuck at the early Klein stage… Some things just can't be forced."
Just as they were talking, the brilliant golden glow finally faded. The sea's whirlpool continued churning, already stained crimson.
"Is 073 dead?" Lu Baoyou frowned.
Fang Mo sniffed the air, transformed into a white tiger and dove into the sea. Soon he flew back into the sky and shook his head.
"The precision of this heavenly strike summoned this way isn't high enough. I couldn't hit his vitals. He dove down." Fang Mo's voice rang in everyone's ears.
Disappointment finally appeared on the faces of the [Devil] Squad members.
"But he can't escape." Fang Mo looked up at the sky, where a figure carrying gray six wings slowly walked through the silent world. "This strike made too much noise and attracted that person. If nothing unexpected happens, we'll be able to report back soon…"
