"Click..."
"Click-click-click..."
The cabin immediately emitted a series of mechanical collision sounds.
Simultaneously.
On a wall of alloy in the laboratory, a slit suddenly appeared, then slowly parted to both sides, revealing a door large enough for this disc-shaped machine to exit.
"Hum..."
A high-frequency vibration resounded, and the machine slowly ascended and hovered.
Then it drifted towards the door and out.
Its initial speed was not very fast, comparable to a normal person walking.
But after a slight acceleration, it became much faster. Yet, the interior of the machine remained exceptionally stable, with not even a hint of tremor felt.
"Please input destination."
At this moment, a mechanical voice came from within.
Dr. M stated, "Yingren Kingdom, Yokoshima."
"Understood."
As this voice fell, the speed of the entire machine abruptly increased significantly. The acceleration at this instant was almost more powerful than a rocket's.
This was because the energy Dr. M used in this machine was nuclear fusion power!
"Whoosh..."
The next moment, the machine departed at an unparalleled speed.
The soldiers near the base only felt a gust of wind.
As for whether there was anything...
They didn't see it at all. In the blink of an eye, it had already vanished from sight. How could they possibly see it clearly?
"Swoosh..."
Soon, in less than five seconds, the disc-shaped mechanical craft shot out of the secret base's perimeter and at extreme speed arrived above the ocean.
"Zhizi..."
"Display satellite imagery of the target location on the screen."
This machine, referred to by Dr. M as Zhizi, signified the embodiment of supreme intelligence.
And within it, it was not only connected to the network but also capable of controlling several low-earth orbit satellites of the Lighthouse Nation, allowing it to see whatever it wished.
Dr. M's purpose for this journey was to obtain the dark, eerie energy within the Black Demon.
Ever since he was last invaded and completed his evolution.
Dr. M had been searching for this substance and attempting to research it to understand why he had evolved and the mechanism of his evolution.
Coincidentally.
One of his satellites had captured a scene of the Black Demon consuming something in the Yingren Kingdom, learning that he also possessed this kind of energy. Thus, he had been monitoring this area.
Therefore.
The combatants in the Yokoshima battle, the Serpent God and the Black Demon, were both his targets.
Above Yokoshima.
At this moment, the Black Demon was on the verge of death.
The Serpent God, however, remained powerful, its eight heads intact and unharmed. Only one head appeared slightly fatigued.
"Hmph..."
The Serpent God gazed at the Black Demon, sixteen eyes from its eight heads gleaming with a cold light, devoid of any human warmth. "Da Xia native..."
"You willingly allowed yourself to be corrupted by darkness and become its lackey. Today is your day of death!"
As it spoke.
One of the Serpent God's heads slowly raised.
Lightning flashed upon it, three thousand bolts, carrying majestic divine might, which struck immense fear into the Black Demon's heart.
What power was this?
It gave him a feeling of being utterly outmatched, of meeting his end here.
"No!"
"I cannot die!"
"As long as I don't die, as long as I keep consuming, I will become infinitely powerful. No one in this world will be my match!"
The Black Demon's spirit was severely weakened.
Blood continuously trickled from the corner of its mouth.
Yet, its eyes still held extreme unwillingness and a hysterical madness.
"Sizzle..."
Just then, a divine lightning bolt descended from the heavens.
Fierce and sacred.
Swift and light.
But the power contained within it felt capable of world destruction!
"No..."
The Black Demon let out a hoarse roar and, in a flash, forcefully shifted its body slightly to the side.
However...
That divine lightning had accurately struck the Black Demon's body.
"Crackles..."
Streams of electricity continuously ravaged the Black Demon's form. In a mere blink of an eye, it turned its entire body jet-black.
It even emitted a strong smell of burning.
"Ahhhh..."
The Black Demon suddenly discovered its power rapidly disappearing.
As if being dissolved by the lightning with supreme force, it was about to perish on the spot.
This was not the most critical point.
What terrified the Black Demon most was that the dark energy within its Dan Tian, on its Primordial Nascent Soul, had also been greatly diminished by this lightning.
This was what plunged the Black Demon into true despair.
Power...
Even if it was lost, as long as it could escape and continue to consume, there would be a day of kingly return.
But if this dark, eerie energy was completely annihilated by the Serpent God.
Then it would truly have no chance of turning the tables.
"Hmph..."
Seeing it still struggling, a fierce glint flashed in the Serpent God's eyes again.
Then, a bolt of lightning even more powerful than before suddenly appeared on one of its snake heads, crackling and emanating destructive energy.
"It's over..."
"This time, it's truly over..."
The Black Demon despaired.
It no longer had the strength to struggle.
This time, it was undoubtedly going to die!
"Swoosh..."
But just then.
A whistling sound came from afar.
The sound was very faint, yet incredibly fast.
In just a few seconds, it traveled from thousands of meters away to the area where the two were fighting.
"Hmm?"
"An ally?"
The Serpent God raised its head, looking at the blur in the distance, approaching at extreme speed, and frowned slightly.
This thing...
Sensing it, it had no aura.
Yet, it gave the Serpent God a feeling of danger, a sense that it could be harmed.
This made it astonished.
In its estimation, there were likely fewer than five beings in the world capable of harming it, and now it had encountered one...
Incredible.
However, this was not important.
The Black Demon had committed many evils in the Yingren Kingdom.
Today, it had to die. No one could change that.
"Whoosh..."
Immediately, the Serpent God moved its mind, and the bolt of lightning surged towards the Black Demon's location.
But the next second, something miraculous happened.
A gust of wind blew.
A high-speed flying disc shot past the Serpent God's eyes.
As it streaked past the Black Demon's form.
The bottom of the disc opened, revealing a large net, which instantly ensnared the Black Demon, and then it sped away.
"Sizzle..."
The next moment, the lightning struck, but hit nothing.
"Hiss, hiss hiss..."
The Serpent God was instantly enraged, its eight heads roaring towards the sky.
Its prey...
The Black Demon, which it thought was certain to die, had been rescued by someone, and right before its very eyes.
This was provocation.
Blatant provocation!
"Ahhhh..."
The next moment, its eight heads roared to the sky.
But that thing was too fast. Even the Serpent God could only catch a blurred glimpse of its silhouette.
To pursue it...
Was almost impossible.
"Damn it!"
"Damn it..."
After a fit of fury, the Serpent God could only retreat indignantly.
Within the altar, Junsei Ichiro was still waiting.
Seeing the Serpent God return, he was overjoyed and immediately prostrated himself on the ground, respectfully asking, "Lord Serpent God, has the Black Demon been eliminated?"
