Apocalypse - Infinite Resource System
Chapter 407: Swiftly slaying
In an instant, the four of them felt their scalps go numb, and a chill ran down their spines. This voice was all too familiar to them. Wasn’t it Waldo’s voice?
In their shock, they attempted to turn around. However, they soon realized, to their horror, that their blood had nearly stopped flowing, their limbs were frozen, and their bodies were enveloped by an invisible force. At this moment, they couldn’t even move a finger.
"Waldo! How the hell did you appear?! No, what kind of sorcery is this? How can he possess such terrifying abilities? What’s the extent of his power?!"
Amid their astonishment and despair, a voice echoed in their minds the next moment, almost casually: 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Sizzle!
Sizzle!
Sizzle!
Immediately, the four semi-divine beings turned into living flames. Fire erupted from within them, engulfing them in an instant.
"Ahhhhh!"
"Ahhhhh!"
In their agonizing screams, the semi-divine sea giants perished. If they dared to invade Dawn City, they should have been prepared to meet their end! "You all are not worth saving!" declared the cold voice.
Afterward, a figure appeared in the sky above Dawn City, gazing indifferently at the ashes of the four semi-divine beings. It was Waldo.
At this moment, countless survivors looked up with immense excitement at the scene.
"The Lord is invincible!"
"Long live the Lord!"
Huge waves of cheers echoed from below, as countless survivors shouted with immense excitement.
Their eyes were filled with intense fanaticism as they gazed at the slender figure in the sky. This was their Lord, Waldo! Invincible, reigning over the underwater world.
With a single strike, he had directly killed four semi-divine sea giants. Such power was truly extraordinary!
"Waldo, it’s really you! You’ve appeared at the most critical moment. It’s amazing!" Alanna and Helen, the two women, were in tears of joy.
As for Calvert, Silva, and the other high-ranking individuals, they were even more excited. Compared to the average survivors, they could sense that Waldo had grown significantly stronger.
In their previous perception, Waldo’s aura was as profound as an ancient mythical beast. Now, Waldo gave them a sense of boundless, indescribable might.
This indicated that Waldo’s strength had received a tremendous boost. "The Lord has finally broken through! The Lord’s power has reached a new level! Those sea giants don’t stand a chance!"
The high-ranking individuals exchanged glances and couldn’t help but burst into laughter. Despite their severe injuries, their sense of awe and joy was undiminished.
Without further hesitation, Waldo turned his gaze towards the retreating giant army, emitting a cold snort.
Then, the sky was filled with a multitude of flames, descending like a rain of fire. Countless giants cried and screamed in the midst of the flames. The entire world seemed to have turned into a fiery hell, an extremely terrifying and horrifying sight.
"Ahhhhh! Save me! I don’t want to die! Hurry, run!"
"The War Commanders are all dead! We’re done for!"
"Quick, retreat to the underwater world! Let the Lord Gods avenge us!"
"Damn it, why is this happening? Where did these flames come from?"
"How can a mere surface-dwelling human like Waldo possess such terrifying power? I can’t believe it!"
Countless giants screamed in disbelief. They found it nearly impossible to believe what was happening.
The four nearly invincible semi-divine beings who had penetrated Dawn City had been killed in an instant. How could this be possible? And what kind of power was required to create this rain of flames?
The giant army didn’t dwell on these questions because they were utterly terrified, and fear had consumed their minds and bodies. As the heavenly fire descended, it wreaked destruction upon everything.
In an instant, countless giants perished. The giant army had already been completely routed. When they escaped the range of the heavenly fire, only a fraction of the giants remained alive.
"Run, they’ll catch up to us soon! Four War Commanders are dead, tens of thousands sacrificed, we’ve lost, we’re defeated!"
Some had pale faces and trembling lips.
"Quickly run back to the underwater world, and let the Lord Gods avenge us, bloodbath Dawn City, and slay Waldo!"
The remaining giant groups scattered into countless smaller groups, with no communication between them.
They were just running in a panic, fleeing in all directions.
"Escape? Hmph, did you ask my opinion?" Waldo coldly snorted.
His eyes were filled with a chilling intent, as if a boiling volcano or molten lava, rolling ceaselessly, nearing its limit. If he hadn’t emerged from seclusion in time, Dawn City might have been breached.
At that moment, the lives of the million survivors in Dawn City were in grave danger. Calvert, Silva, and others, his trusted subordinates and old friends, would also meet their end as Dawn City was breached.
Even Alanna and Helen, the two loves of his life, might not escape unscathed! The consequences were unthinkable!
The mere thought of this fueled the fiery rage burning within Waldo. Spare the giant army? Absolutely not! He was determined to chase down and exterminate every last one of them!
Without hesitation, Waldo took a step forward and instantly teleported a distance of five kilometers. With a single step, he could traverse vast distances, as if crossing the void. His figure split into nine.
Each of these nine figures emitted a terrifying aura far more powerful than that of the four semi-divine beings, overwhelming and majestic.
"Kill!" Waldo shouted, a thunderous roar that resounded across the land. In the midst of the deafening battle cry, Waldo consecutively attacked, obliterating the fleeing giants.
He didn’t even need to get close to the sea giants to kill them now. With a certain distance, a burst of fire could instantly devour large groups of soldiers, incinerating them to death.
After mastering the max-level superpower [Fire Control], Waldo seemed to have become the god of fire in this world, towering mightily and overlooking all.
With every gesture, thunder and fire obeyed his command. His gaze could turn anything into a sea of flames.
Such power was truly terrifying, demonstrating the fearful capabilities of max-level superpowers. As time passed, the nine shadow clones acted successively. Whenever they spotted a giant, they acted decisively, swiftly killing them on the spot.
Initially, the giant army had already suffered heavy casualties under the rain of flames, with over twenty thousand killed instantly.
However, they faced further casualties as Waldo’s nine shadow clones pursued them, along with the tracking and locking by Dawn City’s drones.
Waldo chased down the giant army for half a day, covering hundreds of kilometers. The number of giants who perished at his hands exceeded twenty-three thousand. Only then did Waldo return to Dawn City.
