Chapter 50: Thor Emerges from Seclusion
Chapter 50: Thor Emerges from Seclusion
Inside the core control center of the Dome of Light, the huge purple dot on the main screen began to move again, and the blood-red countdown in the corner had less than five minutes left.
A young technician from China, watching the screen, finally couldn't hold on any longer. His body slid down the chair and collapsed to the ground, letting out a suppressed sob.
"It's too late..."
Luo Feng gripped the cold control console, staring at the few dots on the screen representing Jia Yi and other councilors; they were the last line of defense in the southeast.
"Councilor Jia, retreat! Preserve your strength and avoid further unnecessary sacrifices!"
On the other end of the communicator came Jia Yi's calm voice.
"Luo Feng, not far behind me is the base city that has not yet completed its evacuation, with tens of millions of living compatriots. We... cannot retreat even a step."
"There are no cowards among Chinese martial artists!"
Luo Feng was well aware of this. Powerlessness, anger, resentment... all sorts of emotions surged wildly in his chest, almost threatening to devour his reason.
For the first time, he hated how weak he was!
Jia Yi's voice resounded throughout the Southeast Military Region's defense line.
"All War God-level warriors, heed my final command!"
"Lead all soldiers who can still fight, and at all costs, cover the civilians' continued retreat inland! This is a death order, I repeat it, this is a death order!"
He paused, his gaze sweeping over the few remaining comrades around him, all covered in blood.
"Brothers, we... are the last line of defense for the Southeast Military Region."
"Prepare...to die with me!"
Through shared footage of the battle, commanders and councilors in other theaters of war around the world witnessed this horrific scene. They roared in fury, frantically attacking the monsters before them. Some even attempted to rush towards the southeastern theater of war in China, but were held back by the endless horde of beasts, unable to spare any effort.
They could only watch helplessly as the Southeast War Zone fought against the Thunder Dragon Emperor alone.
……
Less than five minutes passed in the blink of an eye.
On the sea, a colossal figure burst through the water, appearing in everyone's sight with overwhelming fury and unparalleled oppression.
Thunder Dragon Emperor!
Its wounds, fueled by immense vitality, are visibly healing at an alarming rate. Only the large areas of charred, flaked scales and broken horns remain, testifying to the damage it suffered in the nuclear explosion.
Its two scarlet vertical pupils burned with purple lightning, locking onto the few humans who still dared to stand in its way.
"For the homeland we leave behind!"
Jia Yi let out a roar and transformed into a streak of light, rushing forward first!
"kill--!"
The few remaining powerful council members behind him followed closely, launching their final charge against the Thunder Dragon Emperor.
Like moths drawn to a flame.
The gap between the Thunder Dragon Emperor's planetary-level sixth or even seventh rank strength and the councilors' generally first or second rank strength was simply too great. Moreover, the human side had experienced such intense combat, significantly weakening their forces.
The councilors' attacks landed on Thunder Dragon Emperor like a few insignificant pebbles thrown into the ocean, only causing a few negligible sparks.
"roar!"
The Thunder Dragon Emperor roared, its massive tail sweeping out in a single motion, creating a colossal wave. A councilor's defenses were instantly breached, and he was sent flying backward, coughing up blood.
Jia Yi's eyes were bloodshot, yet he remained unusually calm. He knew that conventional attacks were completely ineffective against this monster.
The only chance of winning is to attack the wounds inflicted by the hydrogen bomb.
"Everyone! Cover me!"
Jia Yi issued the command, and his aura surged once more. A dazzling light shone from his blood-red battle blade. He burned his soul, becoming one with his blade, transforming into a hundred-meter-long blade of light that aimed straight for the charred back of the Thunder Dragon Emperor!
"kill!"
The other councilors roared and unleashed their strongest attacks, trying to distract the Thunder Dragon Emperor from all sides.
These attacks struck the Thunder Dragon Emperor, only causing ripples to appear on its scales.
A hint of disdain flashed in the Thunder Dragon Emperor's vertical pupils.
It completely ignored the harassing attacks, and with a flick of its huge dragon head, it focused all its attention on Jia Yi's slash!
It sensed a slight threat.
Thunder Dragon Emperor opened its huge mouth, and a massive ball of lightning spewed out. The ball of lightning flashed and disappeared instantly, reappearing less than a meter away from Jia Yi!
As the lightning ball crashed down on him, a glint of madness flashed in Jia Yi's eyes!
Instead of dodging or avoiding, he poured all his strength into the battle blade in his hand!
"Break for me!"
boom--!
The hundred-meter-long blade of light collided with the purple lightning ball with a deafening roar!
A burst of violent energy exploded in the air, illuminating the entire sky.
The blade shattered inch by inch, and the lightning ball also broke in response.
Jia Yi burst out from the center of the explosion. His body was charred black and he was coughing up blood, but the momentum of his battle sword did not diminish. It slashed fiercely at the wound on the back of the Thunder Dragon Emperor that had not yet fully healed!
"Pfft—!"
This time, the blade finally broke through the defense!
The battle blade was deeply embedded in the flesh and blood of the Thunder Dragon Emperor, and scalding dragon blood shot into the sky!
"roar--!"
Thunder Dragon Emperor finally let out a roar tinged with pain!
It suddenly swung its body, and a tremendous force came from the hilt of the sword. Jia Yi felt a numbness in his arm, the sword slipped from his hand, and he was thrown far away.
Before he could regain his footing, the Thunder Dragon Emperor's enormous tail swept across the room with a piercing shriek that tore through the air!
too fast!
Jia Yi only had time to cross his arms in front of him to protect himself.
"Bang--!"
A muffled thud.
Jia Yi's arm armor shattered instantly, and he was slammed into the sea below, creating a giant wave hundreds of meters high.
Thunder Dragon Emperor looked down at Jia Yi, who was on the verge of death on the sea, a cruel glint in its eyes. It raised its head and looked at the war base struggling to hold on behind Jia Yi.
……
Just as Lei Longhuang was about to finish off Jia Yi and rush into the rear of the defensive line.
A sudden change has occurred!
The sky, already darkened by the beast tide, suddenly became even more gloomy.
An even more domineering will than the Thunder Dragon Emperor's pressure instantly enveloped the entire world!
"Hey, Luo Feng, looks like I've come out of seclusion at just the right time!"
A lazy yet arrogant voice suddenly rang in everyone's ears through the public channel.
Inside the core control center of the Ultimate Martial Arts Academy, Luo Feng, who was almost unconscious due to exhaustion of his mental energy, suddenly widened his eyes, used all his strength to lift his head, and looked at the main screen in disbelief!
Boom—!
A dazzling purple divine lightning bolt tore through the sky and struck precisely the sea between the Thunder Dragon Emperor and Jia Yi!
The seawater was instantly evaporated and displaced, creating a huge vacuum area.
In the center of that swirling lightning and serpentine energy, a tall figure emerged.
It was Thor.
At this moment, Thor was dressed in a silver-white combat suit, his eyes flashing with lightning. His entire aura was one with the lightning in the world, and every move he made carried immense power.
He successfully broke through to the Hengxing level!
Thor took a step forward and instantly appeared beside Jia Yi, reaching out to lift him from the seawater. A gentle surge of lightning power flowed into Jia Yi's body, stabilizing his life force, which was on the verge of collapse.
After doing all this, he slowly turned his head.
A pair of eyes burning with purple lightning looked the massive Thunder Dragon Emperor up and down with great interest, a smile playing on its lips.
"You beast, were you the one who was exchanging electric shocks here just now?"
"The noise is too loud, it's disturbing me, do you know that?"
