Suddenly, a powerful, ethereal, and strange voice resounded in the minds of the three.

The three who had been silent were startled at the same time, and looked at each other blankly.

The sound that resounded in my mind was very strange; it didn't seem like something a living being could make, but it also didn't seem like something an object could make.

It's impossible to even describe what kind of sound it is, like waking up from a dream and instantly forgetting it.

"You... you heard it too?"

Tang Jie looked at the two equally bewildered individuals and spoke.

Shasha and Ruibei nodded at the same time.

"That's a strange sound, like a hallucination." Shasha shook her head. "Is it coming from outside?"

Ruibei stood up. "I'll go out and take a look."

"We'll go too."

The steel gate creaked open slowly, revealing a dark curtain of rain.

The strange thing is that it was raining continuously just now, but now it's stopped and started intermittently.

It was like a giant hand that blocked the rain for a moment and then withdrew it.

Ruibei picked up the umbrella, walked into the yard, and looked around.

In the Japan city, countless pedestrians were also drawn by the strange sound and came out to see what was happening.

Shasha, who was behind her, suddenly gagged and felt unwell.

"Strange... I suddenly feel nauseous..."

Just as Tang Jie was about to show concern, he too began to feel nauseous.

"Hey, are you two alright?" Ruibei turned to the two of them and asked.

Although Ruibei also felt this way, it wasn't as severe as the other two's, but his heart was growing increasingly anxious.

"What's going on? I have a bad feeling about this."

No sooner had he finished speaking than several strong gusts of wind swept through the air, swirling the torrential raindrops into a chaotic mess.

The gale made the black umbrella flutter and wail mournfully before finally slipping from my grasp.

"It's windy, come inside quickly!"

The large raindrops stung Ruibei, but braving the wind and rain, she quickly ushered the other two inside and then slowly walked in herself.

Just two steps away from entering the warehouse, terrified screams echoed through the city.

Ruibei stopped walking and unconsciously looked towards the coastal area of the city.

He froze instantly.

In the dim and void, a round eye, so large it evokes despair, slowly emerges from the torrential rain and smog, like a demon peering down upon humanity.

He was so enormous that everyone in the city could only see the tip of the iceberg.

The monster did not enter the city area; it was even several miles away from the city.

However, due to its exaggerated size, it can still be clearly seen by people in the city even from such a great distance.

As [Ultimate] enters human vision, an even stronger sense of nausea and a typhoon that seems capable of blowing buildings away come crashing down on them.

Even people in the city felt the raindrops, which were originally cold, begin to feel scorching hot.

"Run, run fast!!!"

Ruibei watched this scene and screamed, trembling, but Shasha and Tang Jie were too nauseous to move.

With no other option, Ruibei could only help the two of them run as fast as they could out of the city.

When the three of them, supporting each other, reached the main street, they saw the city in complete chaos.

Countless cars were stuck in traffic, and many drivers were unable to drive due to severe nausea and vomiting.

The honking of horns went on like a madman throughout the city, but it couldn't drown out the increasingly intense strange noise in his mind.

Buzz--!

A private plane flew overhead, but it was blown off course by a powerful typhoon shortly after it took off.

It crashed headfirst into a tall building next to it, kicking up a cloud of thick smoke.

The sound of breaking glass came from the side, and Ruibei, struggling to move through the crowded vehicles, looked in the direction of the sound.

Then I saw a group of opportunists smash the jewelry store windows and flee with their loot.

The jewelry store owner, who was in tears, followed behind.

"Get out of my way! Otherwise, nobody's going to live!!!"

Bang--!!!

Gunshots rang out, and one of the drivers, holding a pistol, shouted angrily at the car blocking his way.

The car in front ignored him, which enraged the driver of the car with the gun, who then fired a shot at the vehicle.

This shot acted as a fuse, igniting countless people to seize a sliver of life using the most barbaric and violent methods.

But the nausea quickly subsided as it intensified again, causing many people to kneel down and vomit.

Ruibei witnessed all of this and felt as if she had entered hell.

Despite his own convulsing bowels, he helped the two, who were already losing consciousness, away from the crowd and continued running in the opposite direction from the monster.

"Help us! My child keeps vomiting, he's dying!"

"Get out of my way!"

"Stop stepping on it..."

"..."

Even after leaving the road, the countless people fleeing for their lives continued to emit deathly cries.

[Ultimate] Before even reaching the city, it was already doomed...

" Shasha, Tang Jie..."

Ruibei called out to the two, but received no response.

Looking at the two of them, I found that they had closed their eyes and lost consciousness.

"Hateful..."

Ruibei mustered all her strength to carry the two people, but her legs grew weaker and weaker, and everything in front of her began to blur.

The intense nausea made him feel extremely uncomfortable, as if his intestines had been completely turned into a paste.

At that moment, [Ultimate] landed on the shore.

Mingming it was suspended in mid-air, the moment it touched the shore, the entire earth trembled violently.

Like the last straw that broke the camel's back, it caused Ruibei to stumble and fall to the ground, unable to get up again.

But he was still conscious and tried to get up, supporting himself on the ground, but he couldn't, as if his hands didn't belong to him.

He exerted all his strength and willpower, but he could only manage to turn himself over so that he was facing the sky.

"That's... the sun?"

Gazing at the crimson sphere that enveloped half the sky, Ruibei muttered incoherently.

[Ultimate] arrived above the city, or rather, ran over it.

Its enormous size was almost the same as the entire city; wherever it went, the entire city turned into dust.

The raindrops that fell on Ruibei's face slowly disappeared, replaced by a hellish heat.

A towering wave of fire swept across the entire city and surged toward Ruibei.

He lay flat on his back, feeling the waves of fire approaching, and instinctively wrapped his arms around the two people beside him.

"Brother Fuluolan... Brother Aidan..."

As he lay dying, he instinctively called out to the two people he could rely on most in his life, and then his consciousness went completely black.

The flames surged like a tidal wave, engulfing everything and swallowing the three people completely in the blink of an eye.

A mother carrying her infant ran and ran, but she could never outrun the waves of fire behind her.

Just before being engulfed, the woman used all her strength to throw her child forward, and then she was swallowed by the wave of fire.

Wow--Wow--

The baby's cries echoed throughout the city as it fell through the air.

It was then completely engulfed by the flames.
