Magnetic Lunatic

Another wave of planes passed over Nick Fury's head, flying straight toward the towering current in the distance.

Nick Fury saw clearly that these planes were made from special polymer materials developed specifically to counter Magneto. The missiles mounted beneath their fuselages very likely carried nuclear warheads.

He ordered the helicopter pilot to fly faster, lest he be caught in the aftermath of the nuclear blast.

The light of a nuclear explosion could blind a person, so he put on a pair of sunglasses before turning to look.

Zhan Liu frowned as he watched another group of planes approaching from afar.

The War God's spiritual senses told him that something capable of harming him was present aboard one of those planes. Presumably, it was a nuclear bomb.

His Magnetic Field Rotation was only at the Ninth Heaven now. Although a nuclear bomb could not kill him, it could still inflict a certain degree of injury.

Of course, that was only if he stood there and let the nuke hit him.

Now, he decided to destroy those planes in advance.

Because while he could swiftly leave the center of the nuclear blast once the bomb detonated, rendering it completely unable to hurt him, May definitely would not be able to endure it.

May would either successfully transform, step into the Magnetic Field Rotation Realm, turn the tables against the wind, and blast him to death on the spot—or fail and be purged by him. There was no third choice.

"Watch carefully. This is Ninth Heaven Magnetic Field Rotation."

Zhan Liu slowly raised a hand, channeling the power of Ninth Heaven Magnetic Field Rotation into it, then lightly pointed at the incoming planes.

The fighter pilots only felt their planes shudder before they lost control.

"Eagle calling the tower, Eagle calling the tower! The plane has lost control, the plane has lost control..."

The base immediately descended into chaos.

"Damn it! These planes aren't even made of metal. How is he controlling them?"

Zhan Liu rotated his wrist, and the several planes in the air were flung about like yo-yos in a child's hand.

"Did you see that clearly?"

Zhan Liu deliberately slowed his movements, displaying every mystery of Magnetic Field Rotation's power before May.

May watched without blinking, pouring all her focus into comprehending it.

The military could no longer hold back. "Launch the nuclear missiles immediately!"

"General, the planes have already lost control. Once we launch the nuclear missiles, we won't be able to escape either!"

"That is an order! Launch the nuclear missiles immediately! I repeat, launch the nuclear missiles immediately! Everyone will remember your contribution to the Federation!"

The pilots fell silent for a moment, then reached out and pressed the launch button.

The nuclear missiles had guidance systems. The instant they left their launch racks, they flew toward their target under the remote control of the base in the distance.

Zhan Liu sighed. The opportunity had vanished.

He clenched his hand, crushing every plane and every missile carrying a nuclear warhead into a metal ball. They fell from the sky, unable to explode at all.

May took a deep breath, focused her mind, and once again crazily squeezed her cells dry.

"Current Drive, Five Hundred Thousand Volts!"

Even more violent currents emerged around May, yet there was still no sign of qualitative change.

Zhan Liu sighed and continued meeting her attacks with the lowest output.

The shockwave caused by this heavy blow was even greater than before, and the waves it raised were even higher.

Disaster-plagued New York was about to face a second wave of floodwaters crashing into the city.

"Current Drive, Five Hundred Thousand Volts..."

"Current Drive, Five Hundred Thousand Volts..."

"Current Drive, Five Hundred Thousand Volts..."

Again and again, she tried. Again and again, she failed. May could never cross the barrier of qualitative change from Current Drive to Magnetic Field Rotation. Even in Current Drive, she was stuck at Five Hundred Thousand Volts, unable to advance any further.

May panted heavily. Her body was already like a battered rag doll.

Although Zhan Liu had only been using the lowest output, the power of First Heaven Magnetic Field Rotation was still far more astonishing than Current Drive.

Hours of battle had inflicted unimaginable damage upon May's body.

"Between life and death lies great terror. Between life and death, all of a person's essence, energy, and spirit can gather as one. That is when breakthroughs come most easily."

"One's performance in a life-and-death battle directly reveals the upper limit of one's potential."

"But unfortunately, it seems that your potential ends here."

The light in May's eyes had already dimmed. The bone-deep hatred she once held had vanished, leaving behind only exhaustion and helplessness.

"You devil, do you have any idea how many people that tsunami will kill?"

Zhan Liu casually picked at his ear, then flicked his little finger.

"You still have the mind to think about that? Sure enough, your thoughts aren't pure enough."

"Looks like I need to let you know what the hell Magnetic Lunatics really are!"

"Or after you die, I can slaughter New York and send some people down to keep you company. What do you think?"

Zhan Liu spoke lightly, but when May saw the cold indifference in his eyes—the way he regarded human lives as worthless—she felt chilled to the bone.

"Beast! Do you have any humanity at all?" May cursed sorrowfully.

"Humanity?"

"Can humanity help you attain Magnetic Field Rotation?"

"Can humanity let you defeat me?"

"What the hell is humanity good for?"

"Go eat shit!"

As the battle continued, the lunatic nature buried deep within Zhan Liu was slowly stirred awake.

He had transmigrated from Earth to the Martial God World. His values had long since taken shape. Although they had been tainted by the Martial God World's values, he usually resembled an ordinary person. Only in battle—the more Magnetic Field Rotation Force he used, the more likely he was to go mad.

A lunatic was not merely a madman who knew nothing but slaughter, but a lunatic was certainly an obsessive fanatic.

"As a War God, you must be single-minded enough."

"You want to defeat me, save people, and condemn me with morality all at once..."

"You think too much, but do too little!"

"If you want to save them, then use stronger willpower to push your strength to greater heights."

"As long as you can defeat me, you can save whoever you want."

"After defeating me and saving everyone, you can naturally condemn me with morality however you like."

"The order of things cannot be reversed."

"Without power to support you, can you solve any problem just by thinking?"

"Talking is meaningless."

"Damn it!" May pushed her power again, crazily squeezing her cells dry. "What the fuck is Magnetic Field Rotation anyway?! Current Drive, Five Hundred Thousand Volts, die!"

After the two exchanged several more blows, Zhan Liu finally confirmed that May did not possess the talent to become a War God. Or rather, before Earth's magnetic field was "contaminated" by Magnetic Field Rotation, she could not step into the Magnetic Field Rotation Realm.

Since that was the case, there was no use in keeping her alive!

"Looks like I overestimated you after all. Your willpower, concentration, and even your resolve are all far below a War God's standard."

"Since that is the case, I shall send you on your way."

"You can die in peace now!"

"I'll send New York to the grave with you!"

Zhan Liu raised his hand and struck May's forehead with Ultimate Endless Palm. Though its power level was still only Current Drive, under the amplification of the Complete State, beneath this palm strike, May—

Had! No! Chance! Of! Survival!
