Main World - Deep Pacific Ocean
The towering waves were hundreds of meters high, and the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be layers of leaden cloth, blocking out the sun's rays.
However, every now and then, a few scattered bombs would slip from the clouds and fall onto the sea, bursting into brilliant light.
Only by the Kakkō of the explosion could one clearly see the enormous creature in the deep sea.
It was a colossal beast with a vast body, somewhat resembling a whale, but with the shell of a turtle and the tentacles of an octopus.
In terms of size, it was roughly the size of Japan now-submerged Honshu Island.
Around this behemoth, five beings of normal human size were fighting against it, with missiles from fighter jets falling from the sky from time to time as support.
"Chairman, all surviving aircraft in Formation Five have completed their bombing mission and request permission to return to base."
During a lull in the battle, a woman used Mind Stone to send a message to the man directly in front of her who was fighting the giant beast.
"Alright, let them return. They've worked hard; this will be the final battle, and humanity will surely win."
The man at the very front, with a tall and straight figure and a ponytail of black hair, was currently attacking the giant beast relentlessly.
Although he is much smaller in size, before each wave of his hand, various superpowers flow through him, such as spatial blades, high-temperature scorching streams, and even poisonous mist or high-pressure water jets.
In a short period of time, the man displayed dozens of superpowers, making the enormous beast howl in pain and forcing it to temporarily retreat back to the seabed.
The strongest member of the Human Alliance —a Level 6 mutated superhuman, the Master of All Arts, Zhang Qiang.
Of course, this title of "strongest" only applies to the Human Alliance and does not include Xu Xiao.
As the creator of the Human Alliance, Zhang Qiang is a man who has obtained the protagonist template.
After the apocalypse, he transformed from an ordinary college student into a superhuman, gradually growing stronger, gathering power, and leading humanity to reignite the flame of civilization.
Today marks their final counterattack against the world's most powerful mutated sea beast—the seventh-tier Kun Dragon.
Once this most powerful mutant beast is eliminated, humanity will regain its dominance over Earth and once again become the darling of the world.
At this moment, humanity's post-war technology and top-tier individual combat capabilities have all gathered here to understand everything.
The battle lasted for seven days and seven nights. The Human Alliance's warplanes were almost completely destroyed by the flying mutant beasts controlled by the Kun Dragon under repeated air attacks, with only a few of the top combatants still holding on.
"I will never let you evolve again; human civilization will surely continue through me!"
Zhang Qiang's combat uniform was tattered, but his aura was several times stronger than it had been seven days ago.
In this final battle, he broke through to the seventh level of superhuman, truly becoming an existence on par with the Kun Dragon.
But the more this was the case, the more anxious he became, because the power accumulated within the enormous Kun Dragon told him that it was about to undergo a new evolution as well.
Once the opponent successfully evolves from a seventh-tier mutated beast into a unique eighth-tier mutated beast, then humanity will have no chance of defeating it.
Moreover, perhaps because he had reached the seventh level of superhuman ability, Zhang Qiang had a feeling.
Whether it's him or Kun Dragon, whoever reaches the eighth level will become the darling of the world and the ruler of this planet.
"We absolutely cannot let you succeed! Humanity will surely defeat you and create a new history!"
Zhang Qiang launched a relentless Onslaught, even plunging into the Kun Dragon's body several times to wreak havoc.
However, due to the size difference, the damage he inflicted was still within an acceptable range for Kun Dragon as large as a country.
Similarly, Zhang Qiang could not ignore the Kun Dragon's attacks. Every time he tried to rush into the core area of the Kunlong, he was forced back.
Ultimately, the final battle turned into a protracted war, lasting until the 49th day.
The enormous Kun Dragon was now riddled with wounds, its thick shell shattered, and its golden-red blood had stained the surrounding sea the same color.
Similarly, things weren't going well for humans either. All the sixth-tier superhumans were killed in battle, and Zhang Qiang, the only survivor, was also severely injured.
At this moment, Zhang Qiang was trapped inside the Kun Dragon's body, struggling to reach its original crystal core.
Mutant beasts are different from humans. The core of a human's superpower is the Baihui acupoint in the brain, which has a ' Origin Acupoint ' that lies between a physical organ and Intangibility.
All the core power of the mutated beast is gathered in its body to form a special crystal core, which is the same thing that Xu Xiao initially used as an energy source.
Although the Kun Dragon was severely injured, it was not dead. On the contrary, due to the war between humans, this guy was about to undergo a complete transformation.
Zhang Qiang repeatedly evaded the attacks of the monsters whose flesh and blood tissue were transforming within the opponent's body, determined to stop the opponent's metamorphosis.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
As Zhang Qiang desperately squeezed into the depths of the Kun Dragon's body, a strange rhythm emanated from within the Kun Dragon's body, as if the will of heaven and earth had gathered there.
This strange phenomenon clearly indicates that the Kun Dragon has begun its transformation!
"No, absolutely not! Human civilization must not end here!"
Zhang Qiang charged forward like a madman, no longer caring about getting hurt, desperately squeezing into the depths of the Kun Dragon's body.
However, the surrounding Kun Dragon flesh and blood monsters were no longer as easily destroyed as before; instead, they became exceptionally powerful as they began to upgrade.
The golden-glowing flesh transformed into bizarre, fleshy monsters that relentlessly attacked Zhang Qiang.
The only thing Zhang Qiang could do was to fight with everything he had, even burning the source energy within his own Origin Acupoint to gain immense power and break through.
Finally, after a fierce battle, Zhang Qiang successfully broke into the deepest part of the Kun Dragon and saw the huge crystal core that shone with five-colored light.
A mysterious rhythm emanated from it, as if it were favored by heaven and earth, and the entire crystal core was undergoing a miraculous transformation.
"Am I still too late?"
Having burned himself out, Zhang Qiang was no longer able to break through the Kun Dragon Crystal Core's most instinctive defenses and could not interrupt the ascension process.
They could only watch helplessly as the Kun Dragon evolved and upgraded, their hearts filled with grief and indignation.
"Is humanity's future truly destined to end here? Are we doomed to have these monsters extinguish human civilization?"
"No! I'm not reconciled!"
Even if it costs me my life, I will absolutely not allow such a thing to happen!
put all one's eggs in one basket!
Zhang Qiang burned all his remaining strength, preparing to rush in and interrupt the Kun Dragon's evolution and ascension, even if it meant his own death.
Along the way, he has already lost a great deal, so he doesn't need to lose anything more.
