Chapter 175 Nuclear Explosion
Hearing Lu Mingfei's words, the White King's golden pupils shrank violently for a moment. That was a signal of anger. He flapped his huge dragon wings, tearing the air with a deafening sonic boom, and the sound waves rushed towards Lu Mingfei like a substance.
At the same time, the elemental storm around the White King became more violent, and flames, thunder and storms formed a huge and blazing vortex, like a moving doomsday furnace.
“Ignorant ants!” the White King roared. The pressure of the dragon language almost froze the air. The white flames surging from his body suddenly surged, and the entire sky was illuminated like daylight. “How dare you blaspheme my majesty! I will let you experience what true despair is!”
Before he finished speaking, the White King swung his dragon claw down suddenly, and the sword energy of Ame-no-Murakumo wrapped around the claw condensed into a huge arc of light, rushing straight towards Lu Mingfei like a sharp blade tearing through the sky.
Lu Mingfei was not afraid at all. He fluttered his wings and rushed towards the sword energy like a meteor. The black blade of the Butu Yuhun in his hand ignited with blazing black flames. With a flash of cold light in his golden eyes, he slashed at the tearing sword energy of Ama-Kurokumo at an extreme angle.
"boom--!"
The black flames and sword energy collided violently in mid-air. The huge shock wave destroyed the surrounding storm. Visible ripples spread in all directions, tearing apart the remaining clouds and revealing the dark starry sky.
Lu Mingfei was pushed back dozens of meters by the impact, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth again, but he did not stop. He flapped his wings and rushed forward again. He knew very well that time was counting down, and he had to hold back the White King and not let him have any chance to counterattack the falling nuclear satellite.
“Is that all you can do?” Lu Mingfei panted, his tone full of sarcasm, “The closest being to God in ancient times can’t even deal with an ant?”
"You!" The White King was extremely angry. His dragon body was burning with blazing white flames. He flapped his wings and rushed towards Lu Mingfei like a comet. His speed was so fast that it almost twisted the space. As he waved his claws, white sword energy was torn out, each of which was enough to flatten a mountain.
Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth and swung the Butu Yuhun with all his strength. The blade and sword energy collided again and again, making deafening explosions. Every swing of his was accompanied by a dark flame. The flame was like a soul-eating ghost, constantly leaving traces of corrosion on the White King's dragon scales.
"Brother, there are still three minutes." Lu Mingze's voice sounded in his ears again, "But your body is almost at its limit, you must prepare to evacuate."
"Three minutes..." Lu Mingfei whispered through gritted teeth. His body was almost out of control. Every muscle seemed to be torn apart and every bone seemed to be broken. But he took a deep breath, and an unyielding light still burned in his golden eyes.
"Hold on for another three minutes, I can still do it," he said, his voice low but firm.
The White King's attacks became more and more violent, and each of his blows carried the power of a landslide or tsunami. Lu Mingfei could only do his best to dodge and counterattack. His speed gradually slowed down, but each swing of the blade was extremely accurate and hit the White King's vital points directly.
"I admit that you are very strong." Bai Wang stared at Lu Mingfei coldly, with a hint of cold murderous intent in his voice, "But this cannot change your fate! Nuclear bombs? Human weapons? I will let you know that the power of 'God' cannot be desecrated!"
He suddenly opened his huge mouth, and white flames quickly condensed in his throat, gathering into a blazing white energy ball. The energy ball expanded wildly, as if absorbing all the elements in the sky. Then, the White King suddenly spewed out the blazing white ball of light!
"The meteor falls!" The White King roared, and the ball of light turned into a destructive white beam of light, rushing straight towards Lu Mingfei. Wherever it passed, the space collapsed and the air flow dissipated.
Lu Mingfei did not retreat. He held the Butu Yuhun horizontally in front of him, with the black flame on the blade burning to its extreme. He took a deep breath, gathered all his strength between his wings, and suddenly rushed towards the white beam of light.
"boom--!!!"
The black flames collided with the white flames again, and this time the impact almost tore the entire sky apart. Fire and thunder exploded in the sky, and the destructive flash could be clearly seen even from the ground. Lu Mingfei was blown hundreds of meters away by the impact and crashed heavily into a broken cloud. He barely managed to stabilize his body, and the blood at the corner of his mouth had already flowed to his chin.
"Brother, there are still two minutes." Lu Mingze's voice was a little anxious, "You must retreat, you can't delay any longer!"
Lu Mingfei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, panting as he looked at the White King in the distance. His dragon body had begun to tremble, and the wound on his chest was faintly emitting the afterglow of black flames. Those black flames were madly devouring his vitality, but his eyes were still cold, still full of the will to destroy everything.
“Retreat? Now is not the time for me to leave.” Lu Mingfei whispered, his golden eyes igniting the last rays of light, “King Bai, dance a doomsday dance with me—until the last second!”
He flapped his wings once again, and his black wings turned into a stream of light as he rushed straight towards the White King. His figure merged with the black flames of Butu Yuhun, becoming a black blade that tore through the storm, and he launched a final charge towards the ancient god!
Far away in outer space, the "Hero Shield" was quietly passing through the atmosphere and falling towards the battlefield where the White King was. There was still one minute left before it fell...
"Brother, if you don't choose to evacuate, you will not be able to escape the attack range of the hero shield!" Lu Mingze's voice sounded in Lu Mingfei's ear.
"Nagging..." Lu Mingfei wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and muttered, then continued to rush towards Bai Wang. It was not that he did not want to retreat, but Bai Wang's speed was about the same as his. If he retreated from the explosion range of the Hero Shield, then Bai Wang would most likely be able to avoid the attack of the Hero Shield as well.
If the Hero Shield cannot hit the White King directly, it will fall directly into Tokyo. As one of the world's top prosperous cities, the tens of millions of people in Tokyo will not escape the disaster, and it is likely to cause the entire Japan to sink, so he must seize every second of the opportunity.
Lu Mingfei's figure turned into a black meteor, and he started the final battle with the White King in the sky. Every collision between the blade and the dragon claw was accompanied by a thunderous explosion. The black flame and the white flame intertwined to form a doomsday picture, tearing the sky apart and even causing the waves of the distant sea to roll.
The White King roared, and His dragon tail swept across again with the sharp blade of Ame Murakami. That blow was enough to split the entire battlefield in half, but Lu Mingfei did not retreat. His golden eyes flashed with unshakable determination. He slightly turned sideways and used his black wings with almost exhausted his last bit of strength to avoid the fatal blow. At the same time, the Butsu Yuhun in his hand burned with black flames and pierced the White King's chest from an incredible angle.
"Pfft——!"
The blade pierced into the White King's dragon body again, and the black flames began to spread wildly, and the White King's roar shook the sky. His huge dragon claws swung down fiercely and hit Lu Mingfei's chest hard, knocking him away like a meteor and crashing into a broken cloud.
"Cough..." Lu Mingfei spat out a mouthful of blood and his body rolled several times in the air before he could barely stabilize himself. His black wings were already covered with cracks and could hardly support him to continue flying, but he endured the severe pain and grasped the Butu Yuhun tightly again, with only the huge white dragon shadow in his eyes.
"It's not over yet..." He said in a low and hoarse voice, but his eyes were filled with a madness that was determined to die.
The "Hero Shield" is now close to the edge of the atmosphere and has 30 seconds left before falling.
“Brother, time is almost up!” Lu Mingze’s voice sounded in his ears again, with obvious nervousness, “Do you really want to die here?!”
“Lu Mingze, when did you become so long-winded…” Lu Mingfei’s voice was weak, but still contained a hint of bitter smile, “Since you said that I like impossible challenges, then let me challenge you to the end…” His eyes were fixed on the chest of the White King, which had been corroded by the black flames of Budu Yuhun, but had not penetrated the vital parts of the dragon’s body. At this time, the White King also noticed the falling trajectory of the “Hero Shield”. He roared to the sky, spread his dragon wings, and began to move to the flank at high speed, trying to escape the predetermined explosion range.
“Oh no! The White King has noticed!” Lu Mingze’s voice was filled with urgency. “Brother, it will be too late if we don’t act now!”
“Shut up…” Lu Mingfei whispered, his golden eyes burning with the last rays of light, “In this world, the one who knows you best is always your enemy…”
As he spoke, he violently vibrated his broken black wings, gritted his teeth and burned the last bit of power from his dragon blood. He then rushed straight towards the rapidly moving White King like a mad black lightning!
The White King sensed Lu Mingfei's movements and turned back suddenly. His eyes were full of anger and murderous intent. The dragon's tail once again stirred up a destructive storm and swept fiercely in the direction of Lu Mingfei.
But Lu Mingfei didn't try to dodge at all. He gave up on defense completely and forced his way through the sharp blade of Ame no Murakami. His black wings were almost completely cut off, and the scales on his chest were completely shattered. Blood spilled like rain, but he showed a crazy smile.
"Don't you want to prove that you are a god? Then I will send you to heaven and see if 'god' can also die!"
Lu Mingfei raised the Butu Yuhun high, and the last trace of black flame ignited on the blade. His figure drew a dark arc and stabbed fiercely into the chest of the White King, embedding the black blade deeply into the wound!
"puff--!"
The Budu Yuhun directly pierced through the White King's dragon bone, and the black flames instantly spread to the White King's entire body. His huge body trembled violently, and his angry roar almost shattered the sky, but his movements could no longer be flexible again.
"Hero Shield" now has 10 seconds left before the target falls.
"Brother, retreat quickly! If you don't retreat, you will be evaporated by the nuclear explosion!" Lu Mingze almost shouted.
Lu Mingfei used up his last bit of strength to pull the blade, pinning the White King's body to the spot, preventing him from escaping the falling trajectory. He panted and whispered, "Lu Mingze... listen to me now... open the Nibelungen!"
“Brother, you…” Lu Mingze was startled, but quickly responded, “I understand.”
"Hero Shield" enters the target area and has 5 seconds left before falling.
Lu Mingfei looked at the giant flame shadow that was getting closer and closer in the sky, with a bloody smile on his lips. He loosened the hilt of Budu Yuhun's sword, and the black winged shadow under his feet began to shatter at this moment. The whole person fell downwards, and just as he was about to fall into the abyss, a faint blue light suddenly lit up under his feet.
The ripples of space were torn apart at the last second, and his figure was forcibly sucked into the dark blue. On the other side, the huge figure of the White King was still nailed to the spot. He let out a final roar, but in the next moment, the "Hero Shield" rushed towards him with earth-shattering fire!
"boom----!!!"
The sky was completely engulfed in flames, a mushroom cloud rose up, and the huge shock wave tore a hole in the atmosphere, even making people on the ground seem to see the depth of space.
On the outskirts of Tokyo, the survivors looked up at the flames in the distance. Some knelt on the ground and closed their eyes in despair, but more people looked at the sky in horror. No one knew what was happening.
Lu Mingze's voice rang out in the dark blue space, with a hint of complicated emotions: "Brother... you are still alive, you are so tenacious that it makes people despair."
Lu Mingfei lay weakly at the end of the space tunnel, with a bitter smile on his face: "Where is the White King... Is he dead?"
"The nuclear explosion hit the target. Even if it was him, there was no way he could survive." There was a hint of sarcasm in Lu Mingze's voice. "Congratulations, brother, you won."
Lu Mingfei closed his eyes and let out a breath: "Winning... was not easy..." Before he finished speaking, he completely fainted.
-
The smoke in the sky had not yet dissipated, and the aftermath of the nuclear explosion was still reverberating in the distant clouds. The flames illuminated most of Japan as if it were daytime. Even so, the entire Tokyo was still plunged into a dead silence, as if everyone was shocked and speechless by this unprecedented doomsday scene.
At the temporary command center of Kassel College, hundreds of kilometers away from the explosion site, Angers, Xia Mi, Caesar, Chu Zihang and other members stared at the gradually disappearing flames on the monitoring screen. Everyone was speechless for a moment.
"Norma reports the situation..." Angé said after a long silence.
Norma's electronic voice sounded calmly, as if tearing the dead silence of the air: "Report, the energy fluctuations in the center of the nuclear explosion have completely decayed, and the vital signs of the target area are being tested... All reactions have temporarily disappeared, but it has not been confirmed that they are completely dead. Further testing is required."
"Huh~" Hearing Norma's words, everyone in the makeshift base breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that humans have completely mastered the weapons that can kill the Dragon King." The vice-president raised the half-full bottle of tequila in his hand and took a big gulp of it in celebration.
"This is not a victory," Ange's hoarse voice broke the brief silence, "This is just a beginning."
The vice-principal raised his head and looked at Ange, the smile on his face froze for a moment, "What do you mean? Could the White King not be dead yet? The explosion just now is enough to turn even a god into ashes, right?"
Angé shook his head slowly, his eyes deep: "The vitality of the dragon clan is beyond our imagination. Even with weapons of this level, we cannot easily draw conclusions. More importantly..." He paused, his tone even colder.
"A high-yield nuclear bomb exploded over Japan, and now Tokyo is in chaos. The secrets of the dragon race and the hybrids can no longer be concealed."
"The images of the nuclear explosion have been captured by the reconnaissance satellites of many countries," Norma's electronic voice interrupted, as cold as ever, "The chaotic state of Tokyo has also been spread to the world through various channels. Civilians are frantically uploading the images they witnessed. The existence of the dragon race and the hybrids will soon be made public. It is impossible to conceal it."
Caesar's face looked a little grim. "We have concealed the truth about the Dragon Clan for so many years, and have tried hard to control it. But now everyone's eyes will turn to us, and Kassel Academy will be pushed to the forefront!"
"No secret can be hidden forever." Chu Zihang's voice was calm and even, his eyes staring straight at the screen, as if looking for something through the flames. "The question is, when this secret is revealed, can we control the situation?"
