To ensure that every swarm of bats was wiped out, humanity deployed nuclear weapons with unprecedented yields.
The blast coverage and bombing accuracy were also exceptional.
No ordinary creature of flesh and blood could possibly survive such a bombardment!
The explosions spread rapidly outward from the missiles' impact points, massive pillars of fire sweeping in every direction.
Malls, hospitals, power companies, skyscrapers... every building was swallowed by flames and explosions.
The nuclear blasts produced radiation and clouds of dust.
There was no telling how many kilometers they covered.
Even those living around the bombarded areas faced devastating nuclear radiation.
Millions of bats were reduced to ash in an instant.
Yet humanity, lost in joy and relief, failed to notice that each dead bat turned into a tiny streak of black light and shot toward a certain point in the earth's veins!
The giant bat's consciousness gradually awakened!
Millions of thoughts surged toward an unknown location beneath the surface!
The giant bat's birth came with erupting lava and ruptured earth veins.
The creature itself was not actually all that enormous.
Compared to Blue Star, it was still utterly insignificant.
But it would not hatch from an egg, nor would it burrow out of Blue Star's soil.
Instead, it would push Blue Star's land aside before crawling out.
That meant its birth would be accompanied by violent earthquakes that could even affect the structure of the entire European Continent!
Rumble-
Somewhere at the very center of the nuclear blasts, the ground began to shake violently!
Tony's face gradually turned pale.
It had begun!
The bat's emergence-the scene he had witnessed in the illusion-had begun!
From a distance, a black line could just barely be seen in the city, shooting straight into the sky.
