The high-speed airflow swept across the nearly fleshless cheek of Zombie King, accompanied by the trailing Black Lightning, bringing him closer to the recovering Zombie Queen in the abandoned neighborhood.
Zombie King had no intention of giving Zombie Queen any chance to breathe; he raised his fist, ready to strike at the glowing point. He was almost touching this grayish-white light when, at that very moment, a beam of light shot out from the point directly towards Zombie King's face!
No matter how fast Zombie King reacted, he was powerless against a beam that was already upon him. However, he had enough confidence to block this wave of light. He believed this was Zombie Queen's final futile resistance; with just one punch, it would all come to an end...
"Buzz!"
But this wave of light that rushed at him was unlike anything he had encountered before; both its impact and power had been greatly enhanced?!
"How could this be?" Zombie King felt his charge completely halted by the beam, his forward momentum vanished without a trace, replaced by a sensation akin to being swept away by a tidal wave, leaving him at its mercy.
"Ah!"
This was entirely beyond Zombie King's expectations! He quickly summoned Chaos Power to envelop his body—if he continued to be illuminated like this, being annihilated into photons would be merely a matter of time.
"This is impossible," Zombie King thought in disbelief. Using the force of the shockwave, he sidestepped and propelled himself away from it, flying out from within.
"Virgil has no energy source; there's no way she could amplify her energy to such intensity! Of course, I can't rule out that she might be fighting for her last stand..."
As Zombie King pondered this, he saw Zombie Queen rising from the pit created by his strike, the two corpses confronting each other in mid-air.
"There are two possibilities if she intends to fight for her last stand... One, she has poured all her remaining energy into her hands..."
"And another!"
Zombie King widened his eyes in shock as he observed an aura surrounding Zombie Queen that had never appeared before—her entire body seemed enveloped in a grayish-white mist as if she were inside a boiling pot, rendering her nearly invisible except for her glowing eyes.
This entire Force Field towered higher than three people stacked together! The surface currents spun counterclockwise and grew faster by the second!
"No..." Zombie King actually loosened his fists that were gathering Chaos Power. "You madwoman, stop now!"
"Hehehe..."
From within this grayish steam sphere came Zombie Queen's ethereal voice.
"I have no choice left, Miao Chengmin."
"No, it's not what you think." Zombie King spread his hands, hoping she would regain her rationality. He still fantasized about using kind words to sway Virgil.
"You were once a soul that upheld justice; why do you choose to part ways with us and destroy this colorful world? Shouldn't you be happy for the development of homeworld?"
"A colorful world?"
Almost devoid of any phantom presence, Zombie Queen charged through the Force Field directly at Zombie King, wrapping him entirely within it.
"Xiaotian, look over there!" Blue Face Hero pointed towards the white smoke sphere two hundred meters away; this sphere had engulfed Zombie King and was rapidly descending!
"He’s in danger!" Before they could get closer, Fierce Eagle had already drawn his battle sword from his back and gripped it tightly while staring ahead.
"Boom!"
Zombie King let out a muffled grunt as the back of his head slammed hard against the ground, shattering Clivia beneath him.
As the swirling dust settled, it revealed the Zombie Queen and the Zombie King beneath her foot. The grayish-white energy field enveloping the Zombie Queen seemed to obey her commands, half of it curling behind her, gathering and splitting into nine smoke-emitting blades that writhed behind her.
The Zombie King was pinned down by her, struggling in vain against her grip. The Zombie Queen leaned down, lifting his chin with her index finger. "You need not pity me, Miao Chengmin. You are righteous, with heaven and earth as witnesses. But the price of justice is weakness!"
The Zombie King turned his head away, trying to keep her finger from touching his chin. However, in doing so, a blade from behind the Zombie Queen struck down like lightning, landing where his head had just been.
This frightened the Zombie King greatly; he quietly clenched his fists—Virgil had completely lost his sanity, like a desperate outlaw with no way out.
"To me, you are merely newcomers! Miao Chengmin, do you know what Earth was like three hundred years ago? Slave trade, naval wars, rampant piracy... I, Virgil, can save an entire village, but I cannot save this world that has been utterly corrupted by desire and greed! This pain and helplessness is something you humans living in the new century will never understand."
"Because of this, you have also become a slave to darkness." The Zombie King stared into the Zombie Queen's eye sockets filled with burning white smoke. "You must believe in humanity; we may be newcomers and not as good as you, but we are growing! Today, three hundred years later, humanity has healed the wounds of your era. This world is full of hope; your descendants and your kin still thrive on this land."
"And are you sure you want to destroy everything you once wished to see with your own hands?"
The Zombie King's tone had lost its previous aggression; now there was more calmness and steadiness in his words. "I hope this can buy some time for her..."
The Zombie King's forearm had slightly lifted, ready to seize the blades eager to strike behind the Zombie Queen.
It was clear that the Zombie Queen hesitated. Her lips parted slightly as if the words of the Zombie King had struck a chord within her heart.
Virgil only remembered Earth from three hundred years ago, but Miao Chengmin's words indeed awakened long-dormant righteousness and compassion within her. Once upon a time, she had been a hero who died for the lives of her people, yet she had become the darkness of this world due to her hatred for its dark side.
The descendants of those she once saved were now to be crushed by her own hands. Although Virgil did not appear as anything good now, there remained a spark of justice glowing amidst the ashes in her heart.
In this moment of hesitation, Virgil seemed to return to those long-ago days when she was held in her mother's arms.
"So please stop," said the Zombie King. "I know you are burning your soul to strengthen the little chaotic energy left in you! You must understand that if you keep your soul intact, you still have a chance to return to the Demon Realm and rebuild. But if you forsake your soul, you will forever vanish from this timeline!"
"It doesn't matter anymore." However, the Zombie Queen chose to break free from the illusion created by the Zombie King as one of the blades suddenly stood upright.
"Isn't death just like that? It's all just dying anyway. Rather than atone in the Demon Realm and endure those horrifying tortures, I find solace in it..."
"Buzz—"
"What?!"
The Zombie King could hardly believe his eyes. If he remembered correctly, this ray descending from above was not a ray in its original concept at all. This ray directly tore through the surrounding space, dragging particles from the Antimatter world and nearly colorless phantoms directly onto two snake-like blades behind the Zombie Queen.
These were blades composed of Chaos Power! Chaos Power is what sustains the entire universe! Even so, this ray still shattered those two blades made of Chaos Power into pieces!
"Kumler People..." The Zombie Queen suddenly turned around as her claws slowly closed.
"I don't want to use such weapons that are completely banned by the Interstellar Alliance unless absolutely necessary." The Blue Face Hero landed on a rooftop opposite them, three sharp spikes spinning rapidly on his right wrist like flying knives. The three points converged together; just moments ago, they were the source of that particle wave.
As the particle wave finished firing and gradually cooled down, the three spikes ceased their rotation. The Blue Face Hero lowered his hand and waited for the best moment to strike again.
"Micro Death Line..." The Zombie King was utterly shocked. He had always thought that such a weapon capable of destroying almost all matter in the universe existed only among the eighteen Soul Kings of Divine Realm.
Yet here was someone fused from Moon and Earth souls using a weapon he Miao Chengmin had never dared to imagine!
"You truly make me more curious." The Zombie Queen released her foot from pinning down the Zombie King and flew into the sky. "If I remember correctly, Micro Death Line's destructive power in the universe is second only to Ban Sa's Tear Star battle axe and the Dimension Obliterator that hasn't appeared for sixty million years. Clearly this technology belongs only to Divine Realm; you Kumler People are truly remarkable."
"I didn't come here to educate you," said the Blue Face Hero, raising his hand as the three spikes on his wrist began to spin rapidly, gathering energy into a glowing sphere.
"Hmph." The Zombie Queen knew she could not afford to be hit by the Micro Death Line again; the Chaos Power was no match for the long Time impact of the Micro Death Line. Anything struck by the Micro Death Line would instantly fall into a silent state, unable to move, watching helplessly as its body was pierced and dissolved into photons in the air.
Thus, she had no intention of giving the Blue Face Hero any time to charge up.
As the Zombie King stood up to assist, he saw the Zombie Queen transform into a white mist. In the next moment, she appeared right in front of the Blue Face Hero.
With souls fueling her power, the Zombie Queen had gained unprecedented strength. If the Chaos Crystals refused to grant the Zombie King more Chaos Power, he would stand no chance against her.
The Micro Death Line in the Blue Face Hero's hand was already operating at maximum power, but in just a fraction of a second, it was the Zombie Queen's counterattack time.
The spikes swirling around her wrist had finished charging. A Micro Death Line shot forth from the tips of the three spikes formed at the front of the Blue Face Hero's fist! At that very moment, the Zombie Queen struck open his hand that held the launcher!
The trajectory of the Micro Death Line easily carved a mark on the Zombie Queen's steam-like protective layer. The Chaotic Field there seemed frozen, no longer flowing like stagnant water, and then began to slowly dissipate into the night sky along with snowflakes.
"What do you think you can use to fight me?" roared the Zombie Queen, almost nose-to-nose with the Blue Face Hero.
However, he allowed her to grip him. The Zombie Queen noticed that he had two different colored eyes—one was moonlight-colored and the other a normal human eye. The human eye side bore a light blue holographic tactical visor.
No emotion could be discerned from the moonlight-colored eye, but beneath the tactical visor, in his human eye, she saw a unique fearlessness and disdain for her that only a hero could possess.
"Ha! We may not be able to defeat you, but another one of us can," said the Blue Face Hero, his shoulder slightly trembling with his contemptuous tone.
As soon as he finished speaking, the Zombie King transformed into a bolt of Black Lightning and charged toward the Zombie Queen!
"Him?" The Zombie Queen extended her hand back, and a beam shot out to repel the Zombie King.
"He's useless now," she sneered.
But at that moment when she thought victory was assured, seven remaining Venomous Blades behind her seemed to sense danger and turned to attack their assailant.
"Xiaotian! Aim for the mark I just pierced!" shouted the Blue Face Hero.
Facing seven Venomous Blades lunging at him, Fierce Eagle showed no intention of dodging. The Thruster between his wings erupted suddenly as he executed a sideways roll in mid-air, causing one attacking blade to stab into another's serpent body beside it. He then summoned an ion shield and thrust it forward, colliding with two incoming Venomous Blades and sending them off course.
The remaining three Venomous Blades realized that Fierce Eagle had broken through their defense and quickly turned back to pursue him.
But Fierce Eagle's mastery over his armor was beyond mere skill; with a swift 360-degree flip upwards, he entangled those three heat-seeking Venomous Blades in mid-air.
"Small fry."
In an instant as he turned back around within his armor, Fierce Eagle smiled at the five intertwined serpents and extended his hand, firing a Sonar projectile at them.
With a thunderous boom that echoed like a deity descending from above, breaking through flames and mushroom clouds, Fierce Eagle soared with sparks trailing from his armor while wielding his battle sword high above him, charging straight toward the watching Zombie Queen!
