The Second Strongest Person on Earth!
Chapter 22 The Second Strongest on Earth!
Thor smacked his lips, remembering that Gu Ce had already broken through to the planetary level even before joining the War God Palace.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, he realized that he was no match for Gu Ce.
Gu Ce is now truly the second strongest person on Earth!
"Let's go, Master," Gu Ce said.
The relics have been taken away; there's nothing left to keep here.
Thor then remembered that his purpose in coming here was apparently to rescue Jiang Hao?
Jiang Hao is dead; there's no way to bring him back to life.
Watching Gu Ce's retreating figure, Thor had a completely new idea.
"Kid, do you want to be an inspector?" Thor said with a sly grin.
Although Jiang Hao's sacrifice was a great loss to humanity, an even more brilliant figure has now emerged, who may be the key to ending this chaotic world!
Thor couldn't wait to see what Hong looked like when he found out about this.
"Inspector? Isn't that just being your assistant?" Gu Ce said speechlessly. "How about you have a public fight with me, and then give me your position as the sect leader?"
"Sure," Thor readily agreed.
What's so good about being a museum owner?
There are a lot of problems to deal with.
It's nowhere near as enjoyable as cultivating on his own!
Gu Ce was taken aback, but then he understood Thor's thoughts.
"Forget it, you should be the museum's owner." Gu Ce thought for a moment. "What do you think about me trying to snatch the speaker's position?"
"That's no problem. Apart from Brother Hong, I doubt anyone can stand against you," Thor said. "When we get back, I'll take you to the Palace of War and announce this to them."
"If anyone objects," Thor chuckled. "You can lure them out and beat them up. Many of those war gods have done a lot of shady things behind the scenes, and I've wanted to deal with them for a long time."
"Alright, stay here and don't move. I'll be right back!" Gu Ce nodded, then instantly ascended to the heavens and left the spot.
The next moment, he arrived in the sea next to him.
"A King-level monster?"
Gu Ce looked down and immediately spotted a group of planetary-level monsters gathered together in the deep Antarctic sea.
The strongest lobster is only at the second level of the planetary stage!
too weak.
Wave Sword Technique!
Upon reaching the planetary level, a martial artist's body undergoes a transformation, and their every move can almost trigger a natural disaster.
Gu Ce's special ability, which he awakened at the planetary level, is pure water body. This ability enhances his talent for the fundamental laws of water and makes him more compatible with them. In the sea, he has the advantage of home-field advantage, which greatly increases his combat power.
With a single swing of the sword, the sea surface was cleaved open, and the seawater surged and churned.
This can't even be called waves; it should be called a tsunami.
The king-level monsters deep in the ocean were directly swept ashore by the current, like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Gu Ce was the butcher with a sickle in his hand, trembling in front of him.
The giant lobster tried to resist, but Gu Ce sliced off its head with a single sword stroke, revealing its tender, snow-white flesh. One can only imagine how delicious and flavorful a giant lobster from Antarctica must be.
With each sword strike, these king-level monsters were like roadside weeds, easily uprooted before Gu Ce.
"So ruthless?" Thor, who had appeared out of nowhere, swallowed hard.
Although he could also slaughter these king-level monsters, it was by no means as easy.
Ok?
Thor's eyes lit up at this thought.
As we all know, there are two monster kings on Earth who hide in the deep sea and dare not come to the surface because they are afraid of the existence of Hong and Thor.
Gu Ce possesses water-based abilities, making the ocean his home turf.
If he and Hong join forces, could the three of them take down those two monster kings?
"Bang!"
Gu Ce threw the enormous lobster body in front of Thor, startling him.
"Let's go, Master, I'll show you some meat from this King-level monster," Gu Ce said with a smile.
……
Aboard Thor's fighter jet, the two quickly returned to Hongning Base City.
Although the ruins are gone, Antarctica is still the place where the Thunder Martial Arts School conducts life-and-death training, and someone still needs to guard it. So the short, fat inspector stayed there to handle the aftermath.
"Let's go see Brother Hong first!"
Thor couldn't wait to see Hong's surprised expression.
soon.
Ultimate Martial Arts School Headquarters!
Hong was waiting inside this spaceship, which was about 10,000 meters long.
Thor said he had a surprise for him, but no one knows what it is. It's all very mysterious.
"Brother Hong!" Thor greeted him with a smile from a distance.
The man in black, Hong, nodded slightly, but his gaze fell on Gu Ce, who was also dressed in black, behind Thor.
The more Hong looked, the more alarmed he became.
It was only about twenty days ago when we last met, right?
How come we can no longer see through his strength?
"A planetary-level master of the domain? This Hong is considered a genius in the universe, and he has the potential to become a world lord in the future." Rimuru's voice echoed in Gu Ce's mind.
Unlike Meteorite Star, which had set up a bunch of observation stations in advance, Rimuru came to Earth with its previous master. The Ice Wasteland Lord fell almost immediately afterward and did not make any further arrangements. It wasn't until Rimuru developed self-awareness that it considered leaving Earth.
"Is this the surprise you were talking about?" Hong finally asked.
"How's it going?" Thor laughed. "Gu Ce has obtained the inheritance of an ancient civilization and is now at the fourth level of the planetary realm!"
"Inheritance?"
Hong instantly appeared in front of Gu Ce, his eyes filled with anticipation.
Gu Ce did not disappoint him and took out several items.
"Master, and Brother Hong, these things can be handed over to you."
Gu Ce took out several items.
A knife and a gun are both worthless Tier 2 Force weapons.
Some basic martial arts manuals contain techniques such as defense enhancement, which can help them improve their strength.
In addition, a tutorial on the universal language, and some common knowledge about the universe.
Gu Ce had learned the universal language on his way here. The other two didn't have Gu Ce's ability, but it wasn't too difficult for them to learn it.
"There are some core aspects of the inheritance that I cannot pass on to outsiders, and they are not suitable for you either," Gu Ce said, shrugging.
Hong picked up the manual, flipped through it a few times, and immediately realized how valuable these things were.
"Thank you," Hong said in a deep voice. "I have some other things here, see if there's anything you need?"
Hong waved his hand, and a huge projection screen appeared in the dimly lit room, displaying a large number of product descriptions.
"Gu Ce, that Sky Shuttle is a third-tier telekinetic weapon... Hmm, and that gravity chamber, we can take that too." Rimuru's voice rang out.
Gu Ce wasn't surprised that it could see this.
"Brother Hong, we need the Sky Shuttle and that ancient civilization's gravity chamber," Gu Ce said. "Also, get some plant spirits and dragon blood."
"No problem." Hong nodded. Compared to Gu Ce's contributions, these things were nothing.
"You brat, you're way too old for me!" Thor couldn't help but say when he heard Gu Ce address him that way.
"Master, that's not right of you. In the universe, lifespans can easily be hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years. How can a difference of a few decades be considered a difference in seniority?" Gu Ce explained patiently.
"Look, we're on the same level, so how about I call you Brother Lei too?"
Thor sensed something was wrong, but then he realized that Gu Ce's words made some sense.
