Chapter 1016: There is a Monster
A black coffin launched from Huo En's flagship, tracing a parabolic arc through the air before slamming violently into Star Island's soil.
This commotion naturally didn't escape the notice of the Huaxu Kingdom allied forces.
However, as long as the other side didn't deploy Cadillus, it didn't technically violate the ga rules on the surface.
Aboard the flagship, Huo En imdiately notified everyone on the island the mont he deployed Soul Reaper.
He warned them to be extrely cautious and avoid encounters with Soul Reaper at all costs.
Because once you encountered that creature, he would kill everyone indiscriminately, friend or foe!
The only silver lining was that the command center had given him orders to eliminate [Chaos].
So he would prioritize hunting down Chaos as his primary target.
The massive coffin had almost completely buried itself underground, leaving only a short section exposed above.
But the disturbance here attracted the attention of nearby superhumans.
Several kiloters away, space suddenly distorted atop a tall building.
A man in his thirties, wearing the East Sea Region navy combat suit, appeared there.
Seeing the churning toxic miasma in the distance, he imdiately reported to the command center.
"Detected suspicious object launched by enemy forces. Impact point located north of Karadayan City."
Li Tianyang checked the map, confird the location, and noted it was still quite distant from Mist Valley's direction.
He frowned. "What did those Columbus Ocean bastards launch over there?"
An adjutant beside him said, "We can first rule out superhumans. Even enhancent-type superhumans couldn't withstand that launch thod physically."
"It's most likely a weapon."
The distance from General Huo En's flagship to the mysterious object's impact point spanned over ten kiloters.
A person being loaded into an iron box, launched like artillery, then plumting from high altitude—
Even a pure enhancent-type superhuman like Baili Changqing would either die or lose most of their life force.
So based on common sense, it couldn't possibly be a superhuman.
Li Tianyang strongly agreed with the adjutant's assessnt.
"Since it's sothing the enemy needs, we absolutely cannot let them obtain it!"
"The current battlefield situation favors us. As long as we block their reinforcents, the Divine Source will be ours for the taking!"
As he spoke these words, his gaze deliberately or unintentionally glanced at Situ Xin and the other Jiangnan Region officers.
He feared that later, Jiangnan Region—or more precisely, [Chaos]—would beco their biggest competitor.
Situ Xin smiled faintly without speaking.
Li Tianyang ordered Bai Ze, who was near the area: "Maintain observation and destroy that object while ensuring your safety!"
Bai Ze: "Received!"
He watched the churning toxic miasma ahead, which made visual or telescopic confirmation of the landed object impossible.
So Bai Ze adjusted his equipnt, cradled a specially-made black rifle, and cautiously advanced toward that direction.
However, as he proceeded, he didn't encounter anyone else nearby.
The expected Columbus Ocean superhumans also failed to appear.
But following orders, he still carefully approached the mysterious object's impact point.
Only when he closed within ten ters did he clearly see the object's appearance.
A tal box. A pitch-black tal box.
Bai Ze didn't dare let his guard down for even a mont, imdiately raising his rifle to aim at the box.
"Could it be so lethal weapon? But why launch it here?"
"Unlikely to be a weapon of mass destruction—their own people are still on the island."
"What exactly is this?"
Bai Ze felt deeply perplexed.
He carefully scanned his surroundings, then retrieved a small tal box from his tactical backpack.
The tal box placed on the ground quickly split open, transforming into a small spider-like robot that crawled toward the black tal box.
The spider robot quickly climbed onto the tal box, projecting two red beams from its detector to begin scanning.
But right at that mont, the tal box suddenly shook violently.
"Creak!"
A crack split open on the box, releasing thick white smoke.
Bai Ze didn't hesitate, imdiately activating his ability.
"Black Domain!"
His pupils flashed with profound darkness.
Within monts, a massive black domain centered around him appeared.
Nothing could be seen within this area—not even light could penetrate.
Only Bai Ze himself could see everything happening within this domain.
The black tal box's crack widened further, emitting "creak-creak" sounds as if sothing was slowly forcing it open.
Bai Ze quickly raised his rifle and fired!
The specially-made black rifle also used Origin Bullets, capable of dealing significant damage to superhumans.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion sounded as the black tal box actually burst apart, with thick tal plates flying in all directions from the ground.
From underground erged a naked, monstrous creature.
His body was an unnerving white, like a zombie soaked in water for years, with twisted muscles bulging as if ready to explode at any mont.
Especially his head, which resembled an oversized basketball.
Such appearances weren't actually rare, but typically only appeared on corpses—a phenonon called giant bloating.
However, what filled Soul Reaper's body wasn't proliferating microbes and gases, but excessive drugs.
Or perhaps you could say he existed sowhere between the living and the dead.
The Origin Bullets Bai Ze fired "crackled" against his body without even breaking his skin.
Soul Reaper, freshly unsealed, looked utterly bewildered.
But when he felt the bullets impacting his body and saw the living human before him, his confused eyes suddenly surged with bloodthirsty killing intent.
Bai Ze felt his spine turn ice-cold.
That monster shouldn't be able to see him within the Black Domain.
But Soul Reaper's eyes were definitely locked directly on him.
This represented a terrifying sensory ability.
Moreover, the oppressive aura emanating from Soul Reaper made Bai Ze feel like he was facing a devil.
"Not good!!"
Bai Ze scread.
Because of the Black Domain's presence, the command center didn't know what was happening.
Li Tianyang urgently asked: "Bai Ze, Bai Ze! What's happening?"
"There's a monster, there's a mon—"
The voice cut off abruptly, quickly turning into static.
Soul Reaper's figure instantly appeared before Bai Ze.
With just one motion, his massive right hand crushed both the rifle in Bai Ze's hands and the arm trying to block, then seized his throat!
"Crunch!"
Soul Reaper squeezed forcefully, and Bai Ze's neck snapped as if clamped by iron pincers, directly flying off.
This superhuman captain from the East Sea Region was crushed to death like an insect before Soul Reaper.
