Tycoon War God

SMACK!

Just as Jack was about to capture Qin Luoli, a hand appeared out of thin air and pressed against his face.

Impossible! I’m moving at extreme speeds; how can anyone grab me!

Jack was in disbelief. Before he could react, a voice reached his ears. ”As annoying as a fly.”

That was the last sound he ever heard.

BOOM.

With a loud explosion, Jack’s head was instantly crushed by the large hand.

”Jack!”

”Impossible!”

Among the Miraculous Squad, some cried out in shock while others refused to believe their eyes. Super Green let out a roar, his massive body pressing down on Lin Mu like a small mountain.

”Large, but hollow. Useless,” Lin Mu commented casually, pointing a finger forward.

Like a needle puncturing a balloon, Super Green’s body burst with a loud bang. His life force was indeed formidable; even with his body blown apart, he was not yet dead. The scattered green essence was slowly gathering, as if he was about to revive.

”Fire!”

With another word from Lin Mu, flames soared, incinerating everything.

”Ah...” Super Green screamed miserably as the swirling green essence was completely consumed by the fire, leaving not even ashes behind.

”Kill him!”

Every member of the Miraculous Squad had bloodshot eyes. Sonic Wave Woman’s eyes were nearly splitting with rage. Blood seeped from the corners of her mouth as she pushed her sonic vibrations to their absolute limit.

”Too noisy!”

Lin Mu waved his arm, and the air around them imploded. The air for hundreds of meters was instantly evacuated, creating a vacuum. Deprived of a medium, Sonic Wave Woman opened her mouth to scream, but no sound came out.

Her expression changed drastically. She wanted to retreat, but it was too late. With a mere thought, Lin Mu had turned her surroundings into a vacuum. The massive pressure differential between the inside and outside of her body caused her lungs to explode and her internal organs to rupture simultaneously.

Moments later, she was a pile of gore, no longer recognizable as a person.

This was the inherent weakness of an Ability User. Her sonic abilities possessed immense destructive power, comparable to that of a Martial Arts Grandmaster, but her own body was extremely fragile. If Lin Mu had used this move against a Martial Arts Grandmaster, they would have simply laughed it off, their clothes not even fluttering. Yet, when used on her, it instantly claimed her life.

Ten members of the Miraculous Squad had come this time, and in an instant, Lin Mu had casually crushed three of them. In his view, these people possessed power but had glaring weaknesses, making them inferior even to Inner Strength Martial Artists.

”Die!”

Silver Ultra zipped to Lin Mu’s side and threw a punch. Possessing a Steel Body and Innate Divine Strength, his punch tore through the air, breaking the sound barrier. Silver Ultra was indeed the strongest in the Miraculous Squad.

BANG!

Fist met fist as Lin Mu clashed with Silver Ultra. Lin Mu’s body shook slightly, but Silver Ultra was sent flying hundreds of meters away, the bones in his right hand shattered and mangled.

The other Squad members watched this in shock; it was the first time they had ever seen Silver Ultra injured.

”Frost!” Silver Ultra roared.

Following his command, Frost Lady swung her arms, and ripples of ice spread out from them. Wherever they passed, the very air froze, turning into something resembling glass.

CRACK. CRACK. CRACK.

The glassy, frozen air shattered into dust. The terrifying cold snap instantly froze hundreds of meters of the sea’s surface beneath Frost Lady’s feet.

The world fell into an eerie silence. Within Frost Lady’s Absolute Zero Domain, it was as if even sound itself had been frozen.

”Interesting, but a bit foolish.”

A flame emerged at Lin Mu’s words, transforming into a fire dragon that roared as it pounced toward Frost Lady’s Absolute Zero Domain.

CRACK!

The flame that could incinerate anything, even nanobots designed to withstand a nuclear blast, was frozen solid by the Absolute Domain. A fire dragon encased in ice—it was a magnificent sight.

The members of the Miraculous Squad all wore expressions of delighted surprise.

”Let’s try that again.”

With a flick of his finger, Lin Mu sent two fire dragons soaring into the Absolute Zero Domain. It was a clash of extreme heat and extreme cold. The Absolute Zero froze even the scorching flames. The two fire dragons once again turned into ice crystals before shattering and dissipating.

Emboldened by her two successes, Frost Lady let out a furious roar and expanded her Absolute Zero Domain, sending it surging toward Lin Mu.

”Fire!”

Lin Mu flicked his finger again, this time unleashing four fire dragons. But he wasn’t finished. In an instant, four became eight, and eight became sixteen.

The sky filled with fire dragons, incinerating everything in their path. The sky was no longer white, the sea no longer blue; everything in sight had taken on the color of flame.

”No...”

The agonized screams of the Miraculous Squad members rang out. The mere aftershocks of the battle, a glancing blow from a passing fire dragon, was enough to reduce their bodies to ash. The overwhelming horde of fire dragons roared and rampaged, annihilating all life in their path.

Only Frost Lady, protected within her Absolute Zero Domain, and Silver Ultra, with his Steel Body, remained alive. All other members of the Miraculous Squad were wiped out. Before such celestial power, they were no more than ants.

The fire dragons roared, striking relentlessly against the Absolute Zero Domain. The spectacle of hundreds of fire dragons striking it at once was truly breathtaking. Qin Luoli was dazzled, wishing she could immediately learn this power from Lin Mu.

As a hundred fire dragons were extinguished, frozen into dust, the Absolute Zero Domain shrank by ten meters.

As a thousand fire dragons were extinguished, the Absolute Zero Domain shrank by a hundred meters.

Frost Lady’s face turned deathly pale. Her body began to tremble, and blood trickled from her ears and nose.

”Captain, save me!”

Unable to fly, Frost Lady couldn’t even escape. She could only stand on the ice as Lin Mu’s fire dragons bombarded her relentlessly.

Silver Ultra couldn’t even fend for himself. Though the fire dragons couldn’t kill him, their strange incinerating power left mottled scorch marks on his Steel Body. He, who had not felt pain in many years, was now in unbearable agony.

”Ah!”

With a ferocious roar, Silver Ultra shot into the sky, intending to flee.

”Come back!”

Lin Mu raised his hand and grasped at the empty air. Even though Silver Ultra’s speed could break the sound barrier, he could not escape Lin Mu’s grasp.

His suit torn and his body bleeding, Silver Ultra watched helplessly as he was drawn, inch by inch, toward Lin Mu’s hand.

”No! We didn’t intend to fight you! It’s all a misunderstanding! We can compensate you! We are the U.S. Miraculous Battle Team! America will pay any price for our lives!”

Silver Ultra had never been so utterly defeated. Even when facing the Divine Race’s Thunder God and the Rod of Zeus, he had never been as powerless as he was today.

”Wealth is as worthless as dirt to me.”

Lin Mu squeezed his hand shut.

In the void, an invisible force converged around Silver Ultra’s body, compressing it. His Steel Body, a physique that not even a nuclear bomb could destroy, began to crackle as his bones shattered inch by inch.

”No...” Silver Ultra let out a final, agonizing scream.

This number one hero of America, the Captain of the Miracle Squad, had been crushed to death.

With Silver Ultra dead, Frost Lady fell into utter despair. She used her ice powers to plunge into the sea, hoping the seawater would shield her from the fire dragons.

But this was the Heavenly Earth Spiritual Fire harnessed by Lin Mu; how could it be compared to an ordinary flame? The seawater didn’t stop the fire dragons at all. Instead, it was instantly vaporized, turning into scalding steam.

The Absolute Zero Domain continued to shrink. In the end, as her body was exposed beyond her domain, she was scalded by the rising steam. For Frost Lady, the master of the Absolute Zero Domain, to be scalded by high-temperature steam was an absurd sight, yet it was happening.

RUMBLE!

Just as Frost Lady was about to be killed, the air vibrated, the seawater boiled, and an immense pressure descended from the sky. A colossal pillar of light, ten meters across, streaked toward Lin Mu.

The Hercules Skyship had fired its Laser Cannon.
