Apocalypse Lord-Chapter 79 - 77: Taking Everything with Us

[Time remaining for exploration: 3 minutes, 6 seconds]

Lin Lan felt his blood boiling throughout his body.

He swung the dinner knife fiercely at the root of the moth’s wings, gradually clearing away the ’limbs’ that the patrolling aerial vehicle shouldn’t have.

For some reason, Lin Lan was becoming increasingly adept at the task of cutting insects.

The hologram flickered slightly, causing Miss Martina a chill in her heart. As a high-ranking Ouroboros Angel, she understood better than anyone present what Lin Lan was doing...

—He is stripping the power of the Starry Monarch!

The uncontrollable moth guards emitted a scream of terror and despair.

It howled and slammed through one neon screen after another, desperately trying to shake the grime off its back as it crashed through the city’s crevices.

Lin Lan’s perspective spun dizzyingly, his face turning pale, almost vomiting the biscuit fish soup he had last night, but he stubbornly refused to let go.

Above, several gigantic moth Fortresses hovered in the night sky, a dense swarm rapidly closing in!

[Time remaining for exploration: 2 minutes, 42 seconds]

"Eleanor! Hold off those bugs above us with all your might!"

Lin Lan resisted the dizziness, tightly gripping the moth’s fur, turning to shout at his partner: "I can deal with this big guy soon!"

The Doragon People kept flapping their black wings near the gray-haired young man. At that moment, Eleanor suddenly realized the young man’s plan.

Despite being the first time working together, there was a hard-to-describe tacit understanding between them.

"Are you planning to forcibly take this guy out?!"

Her eyes widened in shock, loudly reminding, "The underground chamber can’t fit such a big thing!"

"I’ll set the exit point on the manor’s open ground!"

Lin Lan screamed into the wind, almost exhausting all the air in his lungs: "Time’s short! Get ready to act!"

Eleanor’s breath paused for a moment.

As a Chaos Pirate, she had never experienced rescuing anyone (or anything) right under a Celestial Calamity’s nose! Roland truly was crazily bold!

Unable to suppress a smirk, the King of Pirates was almost trembling with excitement.

Then, the Black-winged Calamity Master unleashed the power she had always repressed.

Roar—

Instantly, thunder roared to its peak, black wings danced amid the storm, with ferocious clouds converging towards the two and transforming into a supermassive spiral storm!

The wild, violent wind tore everything apart, causing magnificent skyscrapers to collapse, as millions of tons of debris began to cascade downward. 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The swarm closing in was once again swept into the sky, letting out frenzied screeches, yet losing direction amidst the chaotic storm.

Perhaps... this explains why the Doragon species are feared and loathed by both the Alliance and the Empire.

No politician would comfortably allow the volatile, irritable Doragon People to dwell right under their nose.

[Time remaining for exploration: 1 minute, 59 seconds]

The storm Eleanor conjured engulfed the bustling city, incessant rain blurring the neon lights, seemingly cleansing away the brilliant colors scattered by the stars.

At the center of the storm’s eye, the wind even softened somewhat.

Lin Lan lay on the edge of the Fortress ship, gasping as he fiercely cut through the giant moth’s last section of wings.

Despite the colossal size of the wings, slicing them off wasn’t difficult as long as he followed the root at the insect body’s thorax segment.

Colors burst in vivid wings fluttered like cut kites into the wind, and the dying moth guards fell silent, beginning a straight descent without any movement.

Lin Lan’s peripheral vision already caught the outline of the enormous wall, the crimson moonlight stretched over, and the insects’ screeching seemed wrapped in a distant dream.

Gravity quietly reversed, the storm lifting the airborne vessel atop the giant wall as a swirling Light Gate came into view.

[Identifying the item you picked up!]

[Item: Multi-functional aerial patrol vehicle (Damaged)]

[Quality: Purple]

[Function: ...]

Finally relaxing his taut nerves, Lin Lan collapsed on the apex of the airborne vessel, unable to even check the system’s pop-up window.

This felt good.

A real man ought to pack the BOSS up entirely!

Immediately, the laughter of the Dragon Lady echoed, prompting Lin Lan to turn his head and brighten his eyes once more.

Chaos reigned where the Black-winged Calamity Master stirred, alongside the twenty-meter airborne vessel, more miscellaneous items were being swept onto the giant wall by Eleanor’s storm!

Building debris, basic materials, and crashed small drones... Lin Lan nearly got dizzy taking it all in.

They piled up chaotically, then carelessly got swept into the Light Gate by the storm.

No wonder the King of Pirates worked like a professional. This really was scraping the ground bare!

The sound of boots stepping on steel rang beside him, Eleanor folded her black wings, standing by Lin Lan’s side.

"Is this big guy ours now?"

She tapped on the vessel’s exterior, the vertical pupils glowing with interest.

Lin Lan nodded vigorously in affirmation.

"Damn, that’s exhilarating!"

The King of Pirates lay flat beside Lin Lan, crossing her legs and resting her head, the duo enjoying the Starry Gray Realm’s final moment of serenity together.

[Time remaining for exploration: 42 seconds]

Looking down at the base of the giant wall, the bustling Lower City District had become utter chaos, as lightning pierced through the rain curtains, the swarm roamed aimlessly, blown haphazardly by the ferocious wind.

The storm left nothing untouched.

"By the way, Roland."

Moments later, Eleanor suddenly turned, studying the youth’s side profile, asking mindlessly: "What do you think of the racial power I’ve displayed?"

"That was incredibly useful!" Lin Lan struggled to raise a thumb, beaming: "Glad you were willing to help!"

"Good to hear..." Eleanor chuckled softly.

She sensed the wind and rain against her face, murmuring lightly: "Honestly, with someone like you around, it’s quite relaxing."

"What do you mean by that?" Lin Lan tilted his head.

Eleanor didn’t respond, closing her eyes, feeling the tranquility of this moment.

Only big monsters won’t kick the small monsters out of the homeland.

The next moment, the gigantic airborne vessel submerged into the sprawling vortex of the Light Gate, vanishing.

At the top of the Space Ladder, Miss Martina stoically overlooked the chaos unfolding in the Lower City District.

The aura of the Ouroboros Angel turned increasingly brooding and spiteful.

That Giant Dragon could not stir up storms, the derelict Historian was doomed to be abandoned by civilization.

She resolutely focused on the gray-haired young man, yet despite her scrutiny, she couldn’t discern what lay beneath that human façade.

He wasn’t a conventional God, more akin to a crude, hateful, spike-covered bandit!

Even worse was that cursed Red Moon actively protected them!

These outdated Gods ought to be banished to the rubbish heap!

The Butterfly Wing Angel suppressed her hatred, gradually dissipating from the scene, recognizing greater tasks to attend to.

Deep within time, assisting the Ouroboros Monarch in thoroughly digesting and consuming the lingering Dr. Tianli, forcibly eradicating past concepts, remained Miss Martina’s ultimate aspiration.

This alone would propel the genuine trajectory towards doomsday.

She had faith the Ouroboros wouldn’t let this bandit run amok, ensuring they would reclaim what was lost!
