Apocalypse: Master of Soul Beasts

Chapter 483: Chapter 77: Annihilation of All Beings!_2

The gun’s stock pressed firmly against Wen Yu’s shoulder, as if it had grown there. Then, a bullet shot directly toward Argus’s right leg!

Seeing this, Argus’s three eyes instantly constricted!

Dodge? There’s no time left!

Defend? How to defend? It wouldn’t matter if the bullet hit him; the main damage was from the Soul Strike, and how could one defend against a Soul Strike?

The bullet swiftly grazed Argus’s right leg; under Wen Yu’s precise adjustment, it merely left a minor scratch on his leg!

Then, Argus seemed to trip on an unbreakable giant stone while sprinting. His entire body tumbled forward. Mid-air, Argus let out a terrible wail!

This pain was far more terrifying than the earlier Soul Strike! Palpitation, after all, could amplify the power of the Soul Strike.

Seeing the cracks spreading upwards from Argus’s right leg, Wen Yu wasted no time, instantly joining Palpitation and Mad Medley. Then, he activated Annihilation of All Beings!

Annihilation of All Beings (Combined Ability, No Level): A combined ability of Palpitation and Mad Medley. It fires the most devastating Energy Waves from the muzzles of the two guns, inflicting both physical and soul damage upon the enemy! If an enemy struck by this ability dies, they will release Soul Fragments that can be Absorbed by the Soul Shattering Mirror. Each activation consumes all of the host’s remaining stamina!

A blinding white light flickered from the muzzles of Palpitation and Mad Medley, the white light emitted from the two muzzles slowly intertwining.

Feeling the destructive Energy Fluctuations not far away, Argus’s eyes widened. Ignoring the intense pain from his Soul Body, he roared, ”Wait...”

BOOM!

A massive energy beam directly hit Argus’s face. In an instant, Argus’s skull seemed to melt, disintegrating into ash that scattered into the air.

Then, under Wen Yu’s control, the energy wave of Annihilation of All Beings, without a moment’s pause, swiftly swept over Argus’s remaining torso!

Specks of gray light flew out from Argus’s body and were quickly Absorbed by the Soul Shattering Mirror on Wen Yu’s chest.

It wasn’t until nearly thirty seconds later that the Annihilation of All Beings light beam, erupting from the muzzles, gradually weakened and slowly dissipated.

Wen Yu, as if instantly drained of all energy, collapsed to the ground!

Annihilation of All Beings had consumed every last bit of Wen Yu’s remaining stamina!

...

What was it like to have one’s stamina completely depleted?

Like a fish stranded on shore, Wen Yu felt as if all the air in the world had been sucked away. His body went limp, collapsing to the ground as cold sweat poured madly from every pore, instantly drenching the earth beneath him.

Lying on the ground gasping for breath, the sudden, massive drain of stamina caused Wen Yu to struggle for less than three seconds before he blacked out.

In his unconscious state, Wen Yu felt the world spin. He wasn’t sure if it was a side effect of his stamina exhaustion or his Soul Body returning to his physical body once more.

Dazedly, Wen Yu felt someone shaking him.

”Wen Yu! Wen Yu! Wake up quickly! Las Vegas can’t hold on much longer!”

”Wen Yu!!!”

”You watch Wen Yu here. I need to get back as soon as possible!”

”Can you understand what I’m saying? Say something, will you?”

”I can’t afford to worry about this now!”

...

「Meanwhile, outside.」

Wen Yu lay still. Faceless dutifully guarded his side. Not far away, Qin Tian, now barefoot, was already sprinting towards Las Vegas at full speed!

...

「Las Vegas.」

In the sky, volleys of Fusion Monster flesh rained down every thirty seconds without pause. More terrifyingly, their numbers had grown from the original three to seven!

This meant the number of Demon Realm’s Gates besieging Las Vegas had surged to seven!

Outside Las Vegas, vast numbers of Demon Fiends had begun to launch relentless attacks. Every second, large numbers of Demon Fiends and mutant creatures perished in battle!

Victor anxiously watched the war raging outside. The Netherworld was fully activated! Every second, vast numbers of mutant creatures transformed into Netherworld Warriors and charged out to attack once more.

Further afield, a colossal phantom of the White Tiger stood firmly rooted at the very front of the battlefield. Its three-meter-long battle saber roared wildly, whipping up a bloody storm!

...

「Inside Las Vegas.」

On the blood-soaked street strewn with mutilated corpses, Claus battled the Fusion Monster before him while roaring into his walkie-talkie, ”What’s the situation at Red Stone Hotel?”

”Red Stone Hotel has fallen! I can’t defend such a large area by myself. I’ve already evacuated the non-combatants to the basement!” Arthur, responsible for guarding the non-combat personnel, replied from the other end.

”What about Wang Fucai?”

”This old Daoist is getting closer to you all,” Wang Fucai’s voice came through. ”Sigh... when will Wen Yu and the others return... Also, this old Daoist has to say, you’ve made the defensive perimeter too large!”

”Hurry! Rally to me! The men I brought back are almost all dead!”

”Understood.”

Further away, a colossal Water Element, nearly twenty meters tall, fired thick icicles from its hands towards the ground as if from a machine gun. Yang Hong stood atop the Water Element, surveying a large part of Las Vegas’s defensive zone.

After a long moment, Yang Hong took out his communicator.

”Claus, it seems the western line has been breached...”

”I know! The mutant beasts outside are about to break. Who knows why these Demon Fiends are so determined to pour into Las Vegas! I managed to connect to Wen Yu’s communicator, but something seems to be wrong with him. Qin Tian answered; he’s on his way back immediately!”

Even though Argus was dead, the operational orders from the Demon Tribe Headquarters hadn’t changed—they were still to launch an all-out assault on Las Vegas.

But Las Vegas lacked high city walls and vast stockpiles of high-tech war equipment...

...

「Siberia.」

Tang Haofei smashed the skull of a demon spawn on the ground with one punch and extracted its magic crystals.

Looking at the several demon spawn corpses scattered around, Tang Haofei frowned.

Something’s not right... Why is this Hunting Group even worse than the one in my previous life? My strength is clearly several times greater than it was back then!

After pondering for a long time without reaching a conclusion, Tang Haofei decisively took out his communicator and called Lin Haifeng.

”Commander Lin, my Hunting Group has been dealt with.”

”Good. When can you return?”

”I’ll reach Yanjing in an hour!”

”Alright. Head to Fran’s team’s battlefield first and help them eliminate their Hunting Group...”

”Understood.”

Tang Haofei ended the call, lightly stretched his body, and shouted loudly, ”Swift!”

A mysterious Energy Fluctuation enveloped his legs. Then, Tang Haofei strode forward, speeding towards CX like a laser beam!

...

「CX.」

CX, a country quite close to Cathay, had seen its population drastically dwindle after the apocalypse. Even before the demon plague arrived, its original government system had collapsed.

And it was here that the Cathay military had chosen the battlefield for Walter, Qin Min, and Fran against their Hunting Group!

At this moment, the fierce battle had been raging for an unknown length of time. Walter, Qin Min, and Fran looked to be in a precarious situation under the assault of eight demon spawns!

Water droplets shot from Walter’s hands, exploding like miniature nuclear bombs.

Amidst the deafening explosion, Fran’s voice could faintly be heard saying, ”Tang Haofei has dealt with his Hunting Group and is rushing here! Hold on for another hour!”

”Understood!”

Even though the Demon Lord’s command was strange, it only targeted Sequence Number One and Sequence Number Two. The other Hunting Groups hadn’t been weakened in the slightest!

...

「Spain.」

A giant gorilla, nearly a hundred meters tall, roared furiously, its thirty-meter-long wooden club sweeping towards a ferocious, thirty-meter-tall Demon Monster before it!

BOOM!

A tremendous Sound Explosion, like countless grenades detonating at once, slammed squarely onto the Demon Monster’s head.

Blood spurted from the Demon Monster as it was sent reeling by the immense force. The wooden club in the gorilla’s hand also exploded into splinters on the spot!

Carmille lay pale-faced in the gorilla’s hand. Meanwhile, her unicorn companion was locked in a fierce battle with another humanoid Demon Fiend in the distance.

This woman, her affinity with beasts was indeed quite good!

...

「In a jungle in Sichuan Province.」

Lan Bo, clad in camouflage, narrowed his eyes. His battle saber had long since been returned to his space ring. He was currently listening with a grave expression to the sounds within the jungle.

The Hunting Group for Sequence Number Nine was hidden somewhere in this forest.
