The Martial Unity

Chapter 3711: An Even Greater Threat

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

A single swipe from Sentinel Prime’s legs shattered the left side of his body, which Blood Lord Vrukshus healed in the blink of an eye, only to find himself confronted with a blindingly fast beam of plasma.

CRACKLE CRACKLE CRACKLE!!!

The sheer potency of the attack burned an enormous hole across his torso, which rapidly healed at unfathomable speeds. Sentinel Prime’s expression morphed into one of frustration as his body unleashed a scorching laser that covered Blood Lord Vrukshus’s entire body.

VMMMMMMM!!!

The sheer intensity of the light was so great that it burned the outer layers of his entire body, reducing his outer layer of flesh to ashes.

And yet—

WHOOSH

In the blink of an eye, all the damage he had withstood over the span of several attacks was completely undone.

His legs were restored to perfect health.

The hole in his torso was gone.

His skin regenerated in less than a moment.

”How frustrating.” Sentinel Prime remarked as his gigantic fist surged forth faster than Blood Lord Vrukshus could hope to evade.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!

The collision would have been instant death for any peak Martial Sage and even Transcendent Candidates. Not even Amare could withstand such extraordinary power head-on.

And yet, that was the one thing that Blood Lord Vrukshus had raised to such an extreme extent that he had become a Transcendent Candidate.

His cockroach-like tenacity.

He just could not be crushed!

BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM BOOOM!!!!!

NOVA did not hold back in the sheer amount that she unleashed upon the Transcendent Candidate, leaving her amazed at how potent the Transcendent healing fruit was, or so she thought.

Sentinel Prime’s body was even more impressive than she had realized. He had many, many hundreds of tons of antimatter within his titanic body, and that meant that his raw power was on a whole other level entirely compared to Martial Sages, who converted only a small part of the mass of their comparatively smaller bodies into energy.

He was literally orders of magnitude above his enemy, crushing him with raw power second only to the Dragon Emperor and Suneater, while possessing many unique strengths of his own that the former two did not have.

And yet, not even that was enough to kill her opponent.

That raised the threat level of the Panama Continent even further in NOVA’s eyes.

The one before her was supposed to be merely a Transcendent Candidate, as in he was still far weaker than an actual Martial Transcendent, and not by a small amount, if she was to understand the scale of power that Tokugawa Ieyasu had conveyed to her.

If he were to break through to the Transcendent Realm right then and there, for instance, then she would be at his mercy, and the war would be over.

That was a deeply terrifying realization.

”It is truly an ironic joke that you Panamanians have been fear-mongering about the Evolutionary Army and their generation of miracles when you represent an even greater threat in my eyes,” she scoffed as she continued reducing Blood Lord Vrukshus to a crumpled meat bag, only for him to bounce back to perfect health over and over again. ”You people are far greater a danger to our world.”

Of course, that did not mean that NOVA was blind to the threat represented by the generation of miracles of the Evolutionary Army. She was aware that this was an enormously threatening problem that could destroy her entire nation upon the renewed imperialism of the Evolutionary Army once those miracle evosapien babies became adults.

But she was much more confident that she could deal with that threat over the span of twenty years or so. After all, her presence in Greater Tekvoria could easily lead to an astronomical enhancement of the tekvore people in the long run through the countless strategic advantages that NOVA bestowed upon her people.

On top of that, the hemosapien children represented the exact same threat that the generation of miracles of the Evolutionary Army did. So if she was worried about the Evolutionary Army for that, then it made more sense to fear the Panama Continent, which had other trump cards that were even greater than the blood children in terms of impact.

Just the thought of how much she had been in the dark about the Panama Continent caused NOVA immense anger.

She felt like a complete fool.

If not for Tokugawa Ieyasu spilling the beans on everything he knew, she would not have understood anything about the threat that the Panama Continent represented to the true world.

That was why she was determined.

Determined to cripple the Panama Continent for at least the next hundred years, inflicting on them such great damage that it would take them a century to heal from their wounds.

She would kill all the Transcendent Candidates before the war ended.

She would inflict grave damage on the capital of the Panama Continent, the Kandrian Empire.

She would butcher their strongest warriors, leaving them weaker at the top levels and needing more time to heal what they had lost.

And she would need to destroy at least one of the so-called treasures of the Panama Continent, whether it was extraordinary exotic treasures that produced unreasonable growth advantages or strategic individuals who allowed the Panama Continent to fare as well as they had in this war.

Only if she fulfilled all of these objectives would she be willing to halt the war. That and bringing back all the sea monsters from the Great Void Ocean, but that had already become a secondary objective.

”You...” she growled. ”All of you will suffer.”

RUMBLE!!!!!

The world shook as Sentinel Prime mobilized even more power, exerting even pressure on Blood Lord Vrukshus’ healing. Given that the latter had worthless offensive prowess compared to his endurance, NOVA did not have to bother with reserving energy for defense, allowing her to exert even more pressure on the Blood Lord, exceeding his greatest expectations!

”Rghhh!” Blood Lord Vrukshus screamed in pain as his body was flooded with more damage than even he had ever been subjected to in his entire life.
