At this moment.
As the rift continued to widen, several national leaders stared intently, fearing any unexpected developments. Many more national leaders had yet to arrive, not out of reluctance, but simply due to a lack of time.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As numerous national leaders and warriors watched, a series of roars suddenly echoed from the rift. The sound was deafening, causing even the ground to rumble with a deep resonance.
"They're coming!"
Seeing this on the satellite map, the leaders of the various nations fell silent. They watched with bated breath, "Notify them to prepare for battle."
"Based on our estimations, the one appearing now is likely not the strongest from within the rift."
"Roar!"
Just as the national leaders issued this command via their pagers, a clear roar emanated from the rift, growing louder as it approached. The sound suddenly halted.
Immediately afterward, a colossal creature emerged from the rift. It was immense, towering like a small mountain. Its features were ferocious and terrifying, with sharp, prominent fangs exposed. As it opened its mouth, incredibly viscous saliva stretched into threads!
And this seemed to be just the beginning. Less than ten seconds later, something else emerged from the rift. Compared to the first, this creature was much smaller, yet the aura it exuded was no less imposing.
Everyone was deeply shocked by this sight. The warriors of the various nations trembled, and though the leaders were not present, they could still feel an immense pressure radiating from the creatures.
"Monster!"
"Is this a place you can interfere with? Stop, stop right now!"
As the monster scanned its surroundings with its wide eyes, a resolute voice boomed from the loudspeaker.
"Roar!"
The monster roared, ignoring the warning and taking a forceful step forward.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Though its movements were light, they felt like an earthquake upon the ground. It was truly terrifying.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
The colossal monster and the slender creature continued forward, disregarding the warning. The tremors from the ground intensified. Fortunately, the individuals present were not ordinary people, or else this violent shaking alone would have sent them reeling.
"Fire, fire!"
Seeing that their warnings were ignored, the warriors of the various nations ceased their pleas and directly shouted orders.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Instantly! Countless tanks aimed at them, their muzzles alight. One shell after another erupted, striking them like a dense rain.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Violent explosions rent the air. Fire and smoke completely obscured them.
"Will it work?"
Seeing this, everyone's hearts pounded. The shells fired by these tanks were no ordinary ordnance. They had been specifically developed to suppress cultivators, and while their power was not immense, they could effectively curb spiritual energy within the body.
"Roar!"
However, just as everyone held onto hope, an incredibly wild roar erupted from the explosion zone. The sudden turn of events caused everyone to shudder.
"Roar!"
Following this, the ground began to shake violently. The colossal monster emerged from the smoke, and with a single bite, it swallowed the warriors blocking its path into its maw!
Crunch! Crunch!
The faint sound of bones cracking, though small, was magnified infinitely in everyone's ears.
"Roar!"
The colossal monster, having succeeded, roared again, preparing to advance further. It was like a demon god descending upon the world. Looking at its body, there was no sign of any damage. Although the shells had somewhat limited its abilities, they were negligible to it.
Seeing all this, the national leaders' hearts tightened, and they immediately made the ultimate decision: "Quick, quick, quick, order an evacuation, use the mushroom bombs."
"Yes!"
A rapid response came through the pager. Upon hearing the confirmation, the national leaders once again turned their gaze to the colossal monster. At this moment, their attention was entirely captured by it, and they completely forgot about the very slender figure that had emerged alongside the behemoth.
Meanwhile, hundreds of tanks continued to unleash their artillery with disdain. Endless barrages of fire engulfed the colossal monster once more. The warriors of the various nations retreated, frantically using the equipment they carried. Their sole objective now was to flee, to escape this place as quickly as possible and avoid any life-threatening danger. Although the national leaders had explained everything upon their arrival and promised generous compensation, faced with death, who could truly remain calm?
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The artillery fire was incessant, the projected images filled with fireworks. However, it was clear that it posed little threat to the monster. In the images, besides the continuous roar of artillery, there were also the roars of the colossal monster and the screams of the warriors of various nations. These three distinct sounds seemed to form a beautiful melody, constantly echoing in everyone's ears and penetrating deep into their souls.
"Report to the leader, missile number one is ready."
"Please issue your orders!"
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded from the pager. The national leaders snapped back to attention, exchanging glances before looking again at the screen. The colossal monster, having emerged from the shelling, was wreaking havoc. They immediately issued the highest order: "Launch!"
"Received, received, received!"
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Missile number one has been successfully launched!"
Boom!
As the words fell, from a very hidden corner, a towering pillar of fire erupted from the ground, tracing a beautiful arc through the air before heading towards its ultimate destination.
Simultaneously, the colossal monster, which had been rampaging and committing atrocities, suddenly felt itself enveloped by an extremely dense sense of crisis. It abruptly stopped, raising its head to gaze into the distant sky.
The next second, as it saw a tiny black dot appear in the sky, its face contorted in panic, and it desperately scrambled towards the rift.
However!
Boom!
In the next instant, a terrifying inferno instantly engulfed it, soaring straight into the sky and painting the horizon a fiery red! Tens of millions of degrees of heat erupted instantly, obliterating everything in the vicinity into dust and ashes. The powerful shockwave caused the ground for a thousand miles around to tremble. Vast buildings collapsed, and waves surged continuously. Furthermore, a shockwave shot high into the sky, forming a brilliant and colorful mushroom cloud.
This scene could be witnessed by citizens no matter how far away. People all over the world involuntarily stopped in their tracks, gazing blankly at the distant spectacle, at a loss for words. The scene before them lasted for a considerable time. After a long while, the mushroom cloud gradually dissipated. Looking at the area now, everything that had been there seemed to have been forcibly cleared away.
