Chapter 80: Terrifying Attack Power

As soon as the two blue light orbs detached from the barrel-shaped nose, they suddenly expanded several times in size, like shooting stars streaking across the sky.

The attack methods of the Fierce Beasts were almost entirely energy-based, which was why the armor of tanks was easily destroyed. These two blue light orbs streaked through the streets, and the light refracted by the orbs resembled a distortion of space-time. Under this light, the nearby buildings looked as if they were being viewed through a convex-concave lens. Then, with a rumbling sound, the buildings collapsed.

Even the concrete road surface of the street seemed to be crushed by heavy objects weighing tens of thousands of tons in the distortion, shattering and sinking into the ground.

Zhou Liming looked back. Whether it was the buildings, the trees by the street, the ground, or the cars squeezed to the sides, everything was twisted into a tangled mass. It was easy to imagine how powerful the attack of these two light orbs was. The energy they contained was so immense that it made people dare not oppose it.

Lian Ruixue, who had been closely observing everything, had just been confused about why the Giant Worm Beast did not fit the conditions for a Level Six Fierce Beast. But upon seeing this massive attack, she suddenly became terrified and shouted, “Quick, leave the street.” She flapped her wings, and she shot into the sky like an arrow.

The others were not slow in their movements. The rear door of the Infantry Fighting Vehicle had originally been open. Under Lian Ruixue’s command, the team members were ejected one by one. They then bounced off the buildings on the side of the street without stopping, jumping into another street.

The member acting as the driver was a bit slower. When the blue light orb approached, he left the vehicle body. In the instant he transformed into his Fierce Beast Form, he performed a full-power ejection, crushing the road surface under his feet, and shot into the sky more than ten meters high before landing heavily on some rooftops.

The three Infantry Fighting Vehicles were twisted as soon as they touched the light. The armor on the vehicles had not a shred of effect; they turned into twisted metal. Then, the light orbs struck the Infantry Fighting Vehicles, flashing two intense bursts of light. A violent explosion echoed, the air was suddenly compressed, and the entire space-time seemed distorted. Buildings within a hundred meters around were turned into dust.

The explosion formed by the light orbs generated a shockwave. Under its sweep, the dust formed from countless buildings was pushed to all sides.

“Damn it!”

Zhou Liming had not expected the power of the Giant Worm Beast to be so great. The space-time distortion power formed by its explosion reached over a hundred meters. The moment he sensed something was wrong, Zhou Liming disappeared from view in an instant under the power of his mind. When he reappeared, he was already a hundred meters away. This was a new ability he had comprehended in Wan J City, similar to teleportation.

The others’ reactions were not slow either. The team members with Flying Fierce Beast genes flapped their wings fiercely, shooting into the sky like arrows.

Some team members who had just been relieved that they had escaped did not even have time to breathe easily before the light waves from the light orb’s explosion covered them. Seeing the buildings turn to powder under these light waves, anyone would know how terrifying they were. Without a hint of hesitation, they transformed into their Fierce Beast Form while running.

“Ahh… no…”

Zhou Liming looked around. The running speed of three team members was not very fast. They were instantly caught up by the light waves. Their bodies, now in Fierce Beast Form, began to disintegrate under the light waves. Although their powerful defense and skin, which bullets could hardly penetrate, were torn apart easily under this light wave.

In the blink of an eye, the three team members were disintegrated into countless granules and mixed together with the dust surging behind them.

Now, Lian Ruixue realized that compared to its defense, the attack power of the Giant Worm Beast was even more terrifying. The reason it had used an attack similar to a snake’s earlier was not because its attack power was weak, but because it had found prey and wanted to swallow it. It was laughable that she had thought its attack was weak and disproportionate to its identity as a Level Six Fierce Beast.

Facing the loss of the three team members, Lian Ruixue’s face showed no expression. Accustomed to life and death, she just felt a bit of pity.

The dust quickly settled as the shockwave disappeared. However, within a hundred-meter radius, everything was destroyed and turned into a thick layer of dust on the ground. It was like a large pit formed by dust. No one knew how deep the dust below was.

The Giant Worm Beast’s sensory organs were very sensitive. Although everyone had retreated more than a hundred meters away, it could still sense them. Seeing that its first strike had missed, it silently moved again, gathering energy, and crawled toward the location where everyone was.

Without Lian Ruixue giving commands, a team member sprinted in the air and appeared above the Giant Worm Beast. Then, he closed his hands, condensed into an energy arrow, and fired it at the Giant Worm Beast. This kind of energy arrow had very great power, not much different from a Missile. However, when it hit the Giant Worm Beast, it had little effect.

Seeing that the Giant Worm Beast was about to start shooting light orbs, Lian Ruixue felt helpless. The highest level of modified gene among the team members was only the Fifth Stage, while this Giant Worm Beast was at the Sixth Stage. Breaking through its defense became very difficult. Especially under its attack, in a range of over a hundred meters, one careless move would result in being turned into particles.

As if thinking of something, Lian Ruixue suddenly turned and said to Zhou Liming, “Go up!”

Zhou Liming nodded, flapped his wings, and appeared above the Giant Worm Beast. Looking at its raised head, the blue light on it was becoming increasingly intense.

Zhou Liming extended his right hand. His finger joints rapidly contracted into a tubular shape. Then, under the power of his mind, the strength in his whole body twitched and surged toward his right hand. It was not as gorgeous as imagined, nor was there a huge commotion. It was very calm, just a sudden long beam of light blasted out from his right hand.

The Form Skill called Death Light, named by Zhou Liming, had not failed to kill any Fierce Beast in his impression.

However, what surprised Zhou Liming somewhat was that this time, the Death Light was much thicker than before. Almost as soon as it left his right hand, it more than doubled in size.

The head of the Giant Worm Beast, held high, looked somewhat hideous under the cover of the light. When it saw the Death Light fired by Zhou Liming, it seemed to realize something. Its whole body trembled, as if encountering something that made it afraid or even terrified.

But before it could make any move, the Death Light had already hit its head.

Without any resistance, the Death Light pierced through its head. The terrible melting power turned its head, with a diameter of nearly four meters, into a pool of blood, which was then evaporated.

It felt as if its entire head had disappeared into thin air.

The remaining body, which was dozens of meters long, struggled fiercely after losing its head. Its terrifying strength swept through the buildings on the street, making cracking sounds and leaving cracked traces. After a moment, the strength of the body weakened. It only twitched slightly and finally became completely motionless.

Throughout the entire process, all the members of the X Squadron had their mouths wide open because they could never have imagined that the most inconspicuous person in the Squadron was actually the strongest among them. The Giant Worm Beast’s scales, which they could not break through even after using all their strength, were just like ice cream under a fire when attacked by his Form Skill.

Lian Ruixue seemed dazed for a moment, then shook her head. There was a complexity in her gaze toward Zhou Liming. Remembering what Dean Ren had said about the Level Six Fierce Beast Gene, although this Giant Worm Beast was a bit ugly, its ability was enough to boost the combat power of the X Squadron again. “Go collect the Fierce Beast Gene. Let’s leave here as soon as possible.”
