Human Nuclear Bomb!

Night falls.

The sea of clouds rolled and churned.

Above the bridge of the Sky Patroller.

The black outline continued to expand.

A low sucking sound came from the darkness.

In the blink of an eye.

A giant bird's nest-like structure, made entirely of Aberrant Matter, emerged from the darkness.

It floated silently in the air.

Although it is far smaller than the Sky Patroller.

But it attracted the attention of everyone nearby! Even Captain Iloz, who had summoned it, was watching the changes in this giant nest intently.

"This is the ' Vortex Nest '?"

A calm voice, tinged with a hint of curiosity, came from the side:

"This is my first time seeing it, and it's not as amazing as I imagined."

Iloz glanced at him.

I said, a little annoyed:

"Are you here to persuade me to stop?"

The man smiled:

"You really don't need to go against him."

"It should still be not too late to retreat now."

"After all, his power has not yet been fully bestowed..."

Iloz snorted.

There was no reply.

The man gazed at the Vortex Nest with a contented expression for a while.

Then he continued:

"You may have a chance to defeat him now, but it will be difficult for you to kill him. Moreover, his power will soon be fully transferred to you, and then you may not be his match."

"I must warn you, the matrix won't last much longer."

"And you are now facing a genuine star lord."

The man emphasized the last word.

Iloz said with a grim expression, "Of course I know!"

"I also know that your understanding of the Star Lord far surpasses that of others..."

"But I can't retreat at a time like this!"

"That kid not only provoked me time and time again, but also rejected all the conditions I offered, and even tried to steal my Captain... If I just retreat like this, I'm afraid I'll never have a place in Vortex Mountain again."

The man chuckled and said, "So you're going to give him a perk?"

"I mean... those demons, you should know that he was Slaughter Deification, right?"

"Killing only accelerates his growth, and according to observations, he grows even faster when killing monsters, with almost no bottlenecks..."

Speaking of this...

Iloz's gloom deepened:

"Slaughter Tyrant, is that it?"

The man nodded:

"It's him."

"He is also the only artificial Multi-Universe Lifeform born in this universe."

"Furthermore, he is the leader's personally designated ' Vortex Bane.'"

Iloz remained silent for a moment.

A moment later.

His body surface emitted a faint blue fluorescence.

His expression returned to calm.

The previous frenzied atmosphere had also disappeared.

The man looked at him with some surprise. "You..."

"There's no need to persuade her anymore."

Iloz said coldly:

"From beginning to end."

I don't think there's any need for the so-called "Vortex Bane" to exist.

You know that.

I have always obeyed the leader's orders.

But this time...

I have my own ideas!...

That being said...

The Sky Patroller's recruitment process was relatively successful.

When these Lucky One become one of us.

Then they would be thrown into the battlefield.

The original balance will inevitably be broken.

That tedious war was coming to an end.

Your Excellency no longer needs to worry about your identity...

In conclusion.

Kuynam.

"I'm entrusting the Chosen One to you!"

After listening to everything Iloz had to say.

For the first time, a serious expression appeared on Quinan's face:

You want me to sail back and report back?

"And he himself will fight Roger to the death?"

"Don't you think that as the Captain of the Sky Patroller, you should be more cautious?"

Iloz said calmly:...

"I know this is something the leader will not allow."

But I have to do it.

Kuynam.

You've just become one of us.

I don't understand what we've been going through over these dozen epochs—

To be honest.

I'm tired.

No.

It's less about being tired and more about being exhausted.

It's more accurate to say I'm tired.

I am tired of the endless war.

I'm so tired of that damn balance!

I know.

The leader deceived us all.

He told us.

The Thirteenth *** ***.

Then the war will end.

But I see no sign of it ending!

He lied to us.

But I can't bring myself to hate him.

I have no choice but to find a way to change all of this myself.

Otherwise, everything will return to square one.

That recurring war will destroy everyone's sanity.

And me.

We are now standing on the brink of destruction.

So I have to do something.

You understand.

Quinan...

Quinan sighed:

"Plunder Mode —I know this common sense, even though I haven't been one of you long—you want to kill him and become him?"

Iloz nodded and said:

"I already have a complete plan in mind to end this endless war."

"And become an artificial Multi-Universe Lifeform..."

"This is just the first step."

Quinan suddenly laughed:

"So, you did this on purpose, didn't you?"

"I knew there was no way that little girl's message could have broken through the matrix's shielding..."

To everyone's surprise, Iloz shook his head. "That signal is also very strange to me."

"You may not believe it, but this was not something I did intentionally. I only decided to do it on a whim after seeing Roger."

"I saw potential in him, but he himself was completely unaware of it, and I didn't believe in him! So I had to do it myself!"

Quinan calmly said:

"You have been influenced by some force."

"When we were recruiting new members, you clearly showed no signs of breaking down..."

Iloz did not deny it. "Perhaps."

"But this may also be the voice of my heart. I have followed too many orders in my life, but this time, I want to do it my own way."

"My intuition is very strong; I have at least a 50% chance of success!"

Kuinan frowned slightly.

"So you said all that just to stop me from stopping you?"

Iloz nodded. "Of course."

"If you intervene, then no matter how strong my personal will is, it will be of no use."

"I hope what I just said has convinced you. If not, I can say a little more."

Quinan immediately waved his hand:

"You are the Captain."

"It's up to you."

"However, I can extend a little goodwill on your behalf; perhaps this small act of kindness can save your life if you unfortunately suffer a defeat..."

As he spoke.

He walked slowly and deliberately into the depths of the cabin.

His voice drifted over from afar. "Also, I can't drive a boat, so you'll have to do it yourself."

"Besides, I've just become one of you, and I haven't adapted to the alien body yet, so I don't know how to fight right now."

"This means that if you lose—this starship you've spent so much time with, the one you've lived on day and night with for over a dozen men, will truly become another man's toy..."

"Think about it again."

Become someone else's toy? The blue light on Iloz's face suddenly turned bluish.

But he was not swayed by Quinan's words.

After a five-second silence.

He still raised his right hand high.

The blue light on his arm exploded.

Iloz swung his right hand downwards.

In an instant.

Tens of thousands of monsters violently erupted from the black hole of the Vortex Nest! They surged together.

A terrifying "Monster Cannon" was unleashed! The target of the Monster Cannon.

It was naturally the distant, misty Cloud Gathering City!...

The moment the Vortex Nest was formed.

Most people in Cloud Gathering City were already alarmed.

People took to the streets.

Then the glow of the city lanterns tried to make out the terrifying dark outline.

Some daring Qi Refiner also used spells.

A patch of light shone through the dark sea of clouds.

Regardless of the type of magic or light.

They would be completely swallowed up the moment they got close to that Vortex Nest.

Therefore, everyone can only see an outline.

Ordinary people were simply astonished.

The well-informed Qi Refiner, however, began to despair—

Many people have heard of the mysterious metal artifacts and the demonic calamities that descended from the sky.

They also learned of the current state of Yu Lang Mountain.

Upon seeing this Vortex Nest and the starship hidden behind it...

How could they not know that the calamity that had swept across the sea of clouds for nearly half a year had finally befallen Cloud Gathering City? An atmosphere of panic spread early on.

Soldiers and superhumans moved back and forth in the city's streets and alleys.

Rumors and gossip spread like snowflakes.

More and more people are getting restless.

The streets are chaotic.

The ordinary people sat in the courtyard and looked up.

only.

Before they could even figure it out...

A short, urgent command came from outside the city:

"The Windwutong Grand Formation!"

"Lift!"

I heard this sound.

The Cloud Gathering City was in an uproar.

Everyone recognizes this voice.

It comes from the city lord, Jia Daoren!

Those who had lived in Cloud Gathering City for many years showed expressions of horror—

Because they had never seen Jia Daoren so anxious before!

In the memory of the residents of Cloud Gathering City.

Jia Daoren was always a refined and elegant Qi Refiner.

Now, before that dark silhouette.

Why are they so panicked?

That dark silhouette...

What exactly is it? It will happen very quickly.

The answer is now revealed.

A strong gust of wind from inside the Vortex Nest struck Cloud Gathering City before the "Monster Cannon" could hit it.

Despite Jia Daoren's urgent activation of the city's protective formation.

But the strong wind that crashed against the newly formed Windwutong Grand Formation stirred up a thousand waves.

Boom! After a loud bang.

In many houses in the city, the bricks and tiles on the roofs or the water glasses on the tables seemed to jump slightly! For a moment...

The sounds of clattering and clanging filled the air.

Fortunately, although the impact of this blast wave was strong.

But thankfully, it did not cause any harm to people.

It only caused more serious panic! After the blast wave subsided.

Everyone looked nervously at the sky.

This time.

This is due to the dazzling brilliance emanating from the Windwutong Grand Formation itself.

Everyone could see clearly what was following behind the strong wind.

That is...

One after another, ferocious-looking monsters! They coalesced into a beam of light.

It was yet another cannon made up of countless fleshy bodies.

It was hurtling towards them at a considerable speed! A tremendous sense of terror washed over the people.

"God!"

"That is..."

"Help!"

At this point...

Whether they are ordinary people or extraordinary individuals with some strength.

I don't know what to do anymore.

They could only instinctively scream and cry for help.

Some people know that there is nowhere to escape the calamity.

So he simply closed his eyes.

Some people stared wide-eyed at the sky.

Clasp your hands tightly and pray silently.

Hopefully, the Windwutong Grand Formation can withstand the onslaught of these demons.

But anyone with a little common sense knows that.

All of this is impossible.

The Windwutong Grand Formation is no more sophisticated than the protective formation of Yu Lang Mountain.

And this raging tide of monsters.

They were not something that the Qi Refiner in Cloud Gathering City could kill all of them! And in this atmosphere of despair...

Those who looked up at the sky suddenly noticed.

A sword light suddenly rose Cloud Gathering City—

The sword light was so powerful and so fierce.

It was impossible to ignore its presence! "What is he going to do?!"

Someone exclaimed.

That was purely an instinctive reaction.

Because anyone with eyes can see it.

The sword light was aimed directly at the torrent of demonic creatures! But no one could understand his intention in doing so.

after all.

He single-handedly intercepted Monster Cannon with a power level of 100,000.

This is simply a fantasy!

But the sword light was too dazzling to withstand.

People can't help but chase after it.

A moment later.

Then suddenly it was withdrawn.

A naked, muscular man appeared in mid-air! Everyone stared wide-eyed.

But you can't see his genitals, which were blurred out with white light!

The next second.

Even after shedding the sword light, the fierce man still charged unstoppably towards the forefront of the Monster Cannon!

That moment.

People seemed to have a misconception.

That man seemed more like a cannon! Time.

It stopped at this moment.

The onlookers' vision seemed distorted as well.

All they saw was that man crashing into the very front of the demonic calamity like a meteor.

Immediately afterwards.

It was like a mushroom cloud slowly unfolding in the vast night sky!

Immediately afterwards.

It was a violent explosion that no one in Cloud Gathering City had ever heard in their lives!

"Notification: You have used the feat ' Miniature Forbidden Spell '."

"You failed to trigger the Near-Death State; you have entered a level 6 death state!..."

Your special ability ' No Resurrection ' is in effect!

Your special ability ' Fooling Death ' has failed to take effect!...

Your physical damage level is detected to be above 60% and below 90%. Do you wish to use Deep Resurrection?

"Detected that you intercepted the ' Monster Cannon ' of the Vortex Nest with your own body and caused Great Explosion. You have achieved a new milestone: Human Nuclear Bomb."

"Human Nuclear Bomb: Suicide Bombers Will Eventually Be Addicted"

"Corresponding title: Self-Detonation Trainee (When controlling Miniature Forbidden Spell or other self-destruct methods, your physical damage is reduced by 3%, and during the self-destruction process, you will have a chance to evolve this title, thereby gaining even more physical damage reduction)"

"As expected... I guess I'll have to use Deep Resurrection after all!"

In the sky.

Roger looked at his core area with a hint of regret.

Right now, his body is severely drafty.

Only the main body, the position, and the four Immortal Bone remain.

"Luckily, I took off my gear quickly!"

Thinking this way.

He decisively chose Deep Resurrection! Faced with a 500% speed boost.

His body quickly became whole again! Splat! A drop of dark green blood landed on Roger's face.

It's the blood of a demon.

Roger's heart skipped a beat—

Just now, while casting the forbidden spell.

He seemed to instinctively throw the Sin Mark at it! "Hopefully it won't be a bad attribute."

Roger composed himself.

He started looking at the data column.

"Record: You have killed 160,000 Horned Beast!"

"You have obtained 160,000 Spell Enhancement Shard (Flame Phoenix Fist)..."

Note: Spell Enhancement Shard can be exchanged for 'Spell Enhancement Boosts' at a ratio of 1000:1. Each boost will randomly increase the power, number of uses, casting speed, and other factors of a specific spell.

"Flame Phoenix Fist?"

"Isn't this the Jade Phoenix Spell?"

"The Jade Phoenix Mage is Spell Slot, so leveling up my Flame Phoenix Fist wouldn't be of much use..."

That's what I meant.

Roger breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, it wasn't a negative trait like increased chest hair...

Considering the perks granted after maxing out the perks.

Roger decided to just do it anyway.

The length of the relevant progress bar is ridiculously long.

Roger killed enough Magic Explosion Frog to reach the maximum number.

The progress bar is only at 10%!

"Does that guy have that much stock?"

Roger looked at the silent Vortex Nest in the sky with some concern.

Three seconds later.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Three waves of air crashed down without warning.

Roger narrowed his eyes.

"Warning: The Vortex Nest has fired three sets of Monster Cannon at different angles!"

"You cannot intercept the trajectory of two groups of Monster Cannon simultaneously..."

Let me tell you all, this has truly been the lowest point I've experienced since I started writing. I won't go into the changes and experiments with inspiration and writing techniques, but mainly it's the tenosynovitis that's causing me so much pain. Even writing a few words makes my head ache. I just can't help it. I desperately want to finish this part of the story in one go, so I can enjoy it and everyone can read it comfortably, but I just can't. I've been sitting in the office all day today and have only managed to barely finish these 4400 words. It's really painful. This book went from a flat start to a surge in popularity, but by the end, its popularity had almost completely dissipated. I've experienced this firsthand. The main reason is the lack of updates. I can't deny it; it's definitely my fault. I can only say that everyone has followed me this far, and it's been quite a journey for us all. I'm very grateful to everyone, and please be patient. Thank you.
