The End of Humanity?

In the wilderness.

A convoy of over a hundred cars was speeding along.

Above the convoy, a blonde girl and a black-haired boy floated in the air, keeping pace.

"Damn it!" Dia slammed his hand on the steering wheel.

"What do these two Androids want?"

The two Androids had caught up to them half an hour ago.

But they hadn't attacked.

They were just following.

At first, they had tried to split up the convoy and escape individually.

But as soon as a vehicle detached from the convoy, the Androids in the air would destroy it, vehicle and all.

"Dia, change direction, it's a dead end ahead."

Bulma frowned as she looked at the map.

"Alright!"

Dia immediately turned the steering wheel, preparing to change direction.

Just as Dia finished turning, a beam of light descended from the sky, landing not far in front of the car, blasting a huge crater in the otherwise flat ground.

"Crack!"

Stones flew out from the explosion, hitting the car's windshield.

Instantly, the windshield was covered in a dense network of spiderweb-like cracks.

At this point, Bulma and Dia finally understood.

The Androids were preparing to force them off a cliff.

Dia gripped the steering wheel tightly, staring at the giant crater ahead with bloodshot eyes.

But they had no other path to choose.

If they didn't move, they would be killed immediately.

If they continued?

That would only prolong their lives for a little while.

"Dr. Bulma, let's fight them." Dia gritted his teeth.

He couldn't take it anymore.

The Androids catching up meant that Sloan, whom he regarded as a father, had already died at their hands.

And now they were being toyed with.

Since they were going to die either way, they might as well fight back.

Dia continued, "Doctor, you stay in the car for a while. We'll attract the Androids' attention and find a way to lure them away."

"No!" Bulma refused without a second thought.

Dia looked at Bulma and said sternly, "Dr. Bulma!!"

"You are humanity's hope. Without you and Lord Trunks, we would have starved to death and been killed by the Androids long ago."

"It's fine if we die, but you are different. If you live, you can help humanity survive better in this apocalypse."

"For the future of humanity, please!!"

Dia knew very well that without Trunks's protection and Bulma's inventions.

They would never have survived this hellish world for so long.

Bulma finally relented under Dia's pleading gaze.

Seeing that Bulma had agreed, Dia felt relieved.

Then he picked up his gun and opened the car door.

After getting out of the car, he raised his gun and roared, "Brothers, we'll fight them!!"

In their base, most of the older people had already sacrificed themselves.

Most of the remaining people who could hold guns were young men in their teens and twenties.

These young men were in the prime of their youth and had long been enraged by the Androids' torment.

At this moment, they had no fear. They wanted to punch a hole through the sky itself.

So when they heard Dia's words, they all rushed out of the cars with their guns.

They raised their guns and aimed at the Androids in the sky.

"Fire!!"

With Dia's command, everyone immediately opened fire.

The bullets rained down like mercury, covering Android 17 and Android 18 in the air from all directions.

Android 17 and Android 18 crossed their arms, not even bothering to dodge, letting the bullets hit them.

"Boring."

Such weak attacks were like tickling, only making him feel bored.

Android 17 extended a finger and flicked it lightly.

A small ki blast shot from his fingertip and instantly landed in the crowd on the ground.

"Boom!!"

A massive fireball erupted into the sky.

The ki blast came too fast and was too powerful; they had no time to dodge.

Not only were several young warriors killed, but several nearby cars were also caught in the blast and instantly destroyed.

"Run!"

Dia roared.

Everyone seemed to have rehearsed, and they all scrambled into the cars.

Then, all the cars scattered and fled.

Those who got into the cars didn't stay idle; they opened the car sunroofs, poked their heads out, and madly strafed the androids in the sky with their guns.

Android 17 and Android 18 exchanged a glance.

Android 17's lips curled. "Then let's play with them."

"Let's see who kills more."

Android 18 said and charged out, her hands beginning to emit a dazzling light.

Ki blasts shot out from her palms one after another.

"Boom! Boom!!"

"Hahahaha!"

Android 18 laughed maniacally.

She didn't even aim, unleashing a torrent of ki blasts from her hands, firing them as fast as a Gatling gun.

As someone with infinite energy, she had no need to worry about running out of power.

The desperate strike individually, the wealthy cover with firepower.

Clearly, she belonged to the wealthy type.

Explosions sounded continuously, and dust flew up from the ground.

Soon.

An area of several kilometers was shrouded in thick smoke and dust.

Android 18 finally stopped her frenzied assault.

Under her firepower, almost no inch of land within a few kilometers was spared.

The thick smoke gradually dissipated.

It revealed a ground riddled with ravines and craters, like the surface of the moon.

Cars and people were nowhere to be seen.

It wasn't that they had escaped, but that they had been completely reduced to dust in the explosions.

"Devil! Monster!"

"Demon! They are demons!!"

"Mom, I'm scared..."

Seeing this scene, all the humans were horrified.

Those with weaker psychological resilience were trembling all over, unable to muster any strength.

At this moment, Android 17 descended from the sky.

And he was carrying someone in his hand.

"Dr. Bulma!!"

Dia's face turned ashen when he saw the person in Android 17's hand.

He hadn't expected the androids to directly attack Bulma.

Android 17 threw Bulma to the ground.

He said indifferently, "No wonder you went to such lengths to lure us away. It was for her."

Android 17 naturally recognized Bulma.

She was in the data Dr. Gero had given him.

The genius scientist Bulma, and also the mother of Trunks who had blocked them several times.

No wonder these humans would risk their lives for her.

"Ah!!!"

Dia couldn't hold back any longer when he saw Bulma captured and rushed out directly, his gun spitting fire wildly.

"Dada dada dada--"

All the bullets hit Android 17.

"Annoying ant."

Android 17's eyes flashed with cold light.

His figure flickered, instantly disappearing from his original position.

Then he appeared in front of Dia and casually threw a punch at Dia's abdomen.

But it was this casual punch that made Dia arch his back like a shrimp.

Blood mixed with bile spewed from his mouth.

Dia felt his entire internal organs churned into a mess, all his strength drained, and his consciousness gradually blurred.

After knocking Dia down, Android 17 ignored him and walked straight towards Bulma.

He grabbed Bulma's slender neck and lifted her up.

"Don't you want to protect her? Come on."

Android 17 provoked.

The young warriors clenched their guns, but they didn't dare to fire.

Because Android 17 was holding Bulma in front of himself.

If they fired, they would definitely hurt Bulma.

Besides, guns were useless against Androids anyway.

They could only watch helplessly.

"Heh heh! It seems you don't want to save her."

Seeing that no one moved, Android 17 began to exert force.

As Android 17's palm tightened, Bulma began to lose her breath, her entire face turning purple from lack of oxygen.

Bulma's hands clawed at Android 17's hand, trying to pull it away.

But how could her strength possibly move Android 17?

Gradually, her struggles weakened.

Her consciousness began to blur.

"Trunks..."

At this moment, Bulma desperately wanted to see her son one last time, but alas...

"Hehehehehe!! I can't let you kill her."
