The Transcendence Warhead fired.
The black hole lasted one second, annihilating a massive gap in the pillar of light.
However, the Hunt's strike had not destroyed it completely.
The gap began repairing itself rapidly the instant the collapsing black hole vanished.
It seemed it would be as good as new in the next second.
But that did not mean the Transcendence Warhead had been useless.
Quite the opposite.
To repair that hole, the pillar of light, which had originally all but pierced the heavens, shrank by more than half.
And with Eve in her Transcendence Star state, all her weapons received the same tenfold power boost.
Amid the furious bombardment, every tendril of light trying to reach the train was blasted apart.
The red triple-speed Acceleration Device activated.
A silver Bullet was fed into it.
The train's speed soared.
The drill let out a series of explosive booms.
Charge-impact!
The train let out an ear-piercing shriek.
The Hunt and Eve kept up their attacks without pause.
The drill's assault began whittling down the pillar of light.
But it still was not enough.
At last.
Battlefield Manifestation-
Standing on the roof, Red Tears drew the Tear-Carving Sword.
A tear slid from the corner of her eye.
Her expression calm, she pointed her sword ahead.
Countless figures swept past in front of her.
A random selection.
Then she swung her sword.
The path-cleaving slash met the pillar of light.
Sever-
The pillar of light shrank again!
It kept getting smaller!
The drill's shriek grew more intense.
Just as they were about to break straight through, the pillar of light actually shrank to the size of the train's front.
And directly ahead of it, an extraordinarily ornate spiral dagger collided with the train's Imminent Demise Drill.
Point against point.
To Ye Qiyan's surprise.
