Chapter 1054
Cui Ming: That guy over there is Holmga's accomplice!!!
On the battlefield, the most tragic figure was undoubtedly the female demon spirit. Just as she tried to reassemble herself to block the attack, she was cleaved in two by a light blade casually swung by Seven. Before the black mist could recombine, human lasers and the monster's energy breath followed in quick succession. Wave after wave of attacks struck her remaining energy form, preventing her from even maintaining a complete shape. She could only let out desperate screams as she shattered and dissipated, ultimately turning into a wisp of smoke, never to reappear.
As smoke gradually filled the air, everyone, including the monsters, temporarily stopped what they were doing, their gazes fixed on Homga's corpse. But just then, Cui Ming stared at the massive body, his brow furrowed, and he subconsciously said, "Maybe he was just faking his death to fool us?"
These words were like a fuse, and the attack, which had been paused, instantly resumed! Human missiles and lasers roared out again, and the monsters' energy breath re-condensed, unleashing a dense barrage of attacks like a torrential downpour on Homga's corpse. The deafening roar once more shook the heavens and earth, blasting the already mangled body into even more fragments, even plowing deep craters into the surrounding ground—clearly, no one was willing to take even the slightest risk, giving this overpowered monster any chance of a comeback.
In a hidden corner on the edge of the battlefield, the Kirieloids silently observed the combined attack from the shadows. Enveloped in distorted black mist, only their eyes, flashing with an eerie red light, were visible, witnessing the entire process of humans and monsters joining forces to besiege Homgar.
Incidentally, he's doing this to hide himself.
Watching Homga being blasted to its death, utterly helpless, the Kirieloids felt nothing; they even thought the creature deserved it. They had initially believed themselves to be quite the charlatans and outrageous figures, relying on their manipulative skills, but witnessing Homga's willingness to self-destruct for the sake of reproduction revealed an even more incredible truth!
Damn it... how come all the creatures in this world are more and more abnormal than the last? The Kirieloid thought to himself, feeling that Homgar's fate was entirely his own fault and he didn't deserve any sympathy.
However, before they could even look away, a deafening roar suddenly shattered the silence of the battlefield: "That guy over there! He must be one of Holmga's accomplices!!!"
"!!!!!!!" The Kirieloid froze instantly, their red eyes filled with astonishment—the roar was directed directly at the direction where they were hiding!
Damn it! Storm One! You bastard!!! The Kirieloids cursed wildly in their hearts. They never expected to be suddenly targeted, let alone that the other party would directly label them as "accomplices".
It was Cui Ming who shouted. He had just confirmed that Homga was lifeless when he turned and caught sight of the unusual black mist in the corner. Before the Kirieloids could react, he immediately turned to the lingering horde of monsters and yelled, "That bastard didn't attack Homga at all! He just stood there watching the whole time! He's clearly in cahoots with Homga!!!"
Upon hearing this, the surrounding monsters erupted in chaos. They all turned their heads, their crimson eyes locking onto the black mist where the Kirieloid was hiding, rubbing their fists together and letting out threatening growls. The monsters thought for a moment… that's right!
Normal creatures, upon seeing Homga, would be filled with righteous indignation, ready to fight to the death! Why would someone just stand by and watch coldly? What else could this be but an accomplice? And a confidant among Homga's accomplices, the kind who specializes in ambushing from the shadows!
"Kill him!!!" One of the monsters roared first, instantly igniting the fury of all the other monsters.
"Storm One! You son of a bitch." The Kirieloid was about to speak, trying to distance himself from the situation, but before he could finish his sentence—
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Countless monsters unleashed their energy breaths upon the black mist. The human forces, spurred by Cui Ming's assessment, turned their specialized weapons around, unleashing lasers and missiles in a frenzied bombardment of the Kirieloids' hiding place. The black mist was instantly engulfed in flames, the violent explosions shaking the ground. The Kirieloids had little chance to dodge before being overwhelmed by the dense barrage of attacks.
The black mist was completely engulfed by the flames, the violent explosions causing the ground to tremble continuously, and the screams of the Kirielod were drowned out by the roaring artillery fire. Even so, Cui Ming's roar still pierced through the smoke, carrying unwavering ferocity: "Storm One!!! You bastard!!!"
The attack continued; no one dared to relax for a moment. Suddenly, a reconnaissance officer's voice came through the communicator: "He's still breathing!!!! Keep attacking!!!"
Boom boom boom boom! ! ! !
The new wave of attacks intensified instantly. The monsters' energy breath became even more concentrated, and humanity's specialized missiles and lasers rained down like a storm, repeatedly bombarding the explosion's epicenter. The already devastated area was completely ravaged, with billowing smoke and dust rising from the scorched earth, and the air thick with the acrid smell of gunpowder and the scorching heat of burning energy.
After an unknown amount of time, as the roar of the attack gradually subsided and the smoke and dust slowly dissipated, everyone looked closely and saw only a huge crater remaining, with no trace of life. Cui Ming raised his hand to signal a halt to the attack, nodded to the surrounding human troops and monster horde, and the monsters responded with low growls, as if they had reached a silent understanding.
Without further exchange, the Earth monsters participating in the encirclement turned around, some burrowing into the underground rock layers, some rushing into the depths of the dense forest, and some returning to the lake, quickly disappearing without a trace and returning to their habitats. The human forces immediately sprang into action, beginning to clear the debris and rubble around the battlefield, checking for any remaining energy hazards to prevent the high-temperature embers from causing a fire.
Standing at the edge of the scorched earth, Cui Ming looked at the chaotic battlefield before him and couldn't help but mutter a curse under his breath: "Damn it, that bastard Homga, he's so annoying."
From its extradimensional plot to its eventual annihilation by a united front, this monstrous creature not only nearly brought about an extinction-level catastrophe but also inadvertently exposed the hidden presence of the Kirieloids, leaving everyone on the edge of their seats. Now that the crisis is over, only the devastation of the battlefield and the tedious cleanup remain. It's no wonder Cui Ming is so agitated—after all, no one wants to be disturbed by such a selfish and outrageous creature.
Of course, the Kirielod people felt they were wronged.
We really didn't cooperate with that thing.
But actually, they're not entirely innocent, after all...
Everyone else fought, but you didn't! What are you up to?! (End of Chapter)
