Swallowing the Stars: Becoming a God Starting with a Hundred Generations of Talent
Chapter 17 The Golden Horned Beast, Doomsday Arrives
Another year has passed.
For ordinary people, this year was uneventful.
He knew that the terrifying cosmic behemoth, capable of destroying the entire civilization of Earth, was coming soon.
"Not enough...not fast enough!"
In the quiet room, Lu Yun opened his eyes, his training uniform soaked with sweat.
His cultivation level did not break through, but his control over mental power became increasingly refined.
Now, the number of throwing knives he can perfectly control has increased from twelve to thirteen.
At the same time, the impact force that each of his throwing knives could generate also steadily increased from 1050 tons to 1120 tons.
But Lu Yun understood that this improvement was insignificant compared to that eternal star-level behemoth.
This day.
"Beep! Beep! Beep!"
A piercing alarm sounded through the Ares Palace's internal communication system.
Highest level, Red Emergency Assembly Order.
Lu Yun suddenly stood up, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.
What was bound to happen has finally happened.
……
The Palace of War, the highest council chamber.
When Lu Yun arrived, the place had already gathered some of the world's most powerful individuals.
Hong, dressed in black, stood silently in the main seat with a somber expression.
Thor stood with his arms crossed and his brow furrowed.
Luo Feng also arrived. When he saw Lu Yun, he quickly walked over and greeted him in a low voice, "Teacher."
Lu Yun nodded to him, his gaze sweeping across the entire room.
Almost all the powerful figures at the level of councilors on Earth had arrived, and each of them wore an unprecedented solemn expression.
Yao Rao stood on the other side of the crowd, looking at Lu Yun with a hint of confusion in her beautiful eyes behind the golden mask.
That year, Lu Yun's contact with her faded considerably.
In the past, on such occasions, Lu Yun would habitually walk to her side, either nod in acknowledgment or exchange a few words.
But now, he simply glanced at it calmly and then looked away.
This feeling... is very strange.
Yao Rao frowned, but the atmosphere at the moment left her with no mind to delve into these matters.
"Everyone is here."
Hong's deep voice rang out, and the conference hall fell silent instantly.
"Fellow councilors, just three minutes ago, our war base was attacked by... an incomprehensible creature."
The president's voice trembled uncontrollably.
The scene changed as soon as the words were spoken.
The colossal cosmic beast, facing the human war fortress, slowly opened its massive maw, large enough to devour mountains.
A gravitational force erupted instantly, and the war fortress, made of countless high-strength alloys, along with all its internal defense systems and soldiers, was swallowed whole.
crunch.
The video cuts out, leaving only a speck of snowflakes.
The conference room was deathly silent.
All the council members, including Hong and Thor, stared blankly at the static screen.
"What...what kind of monster is this?" A councilor's voice was filled with fear.
"Swallowed...swallowed a war base?"
"impossible!"
Panic spread like a plague.
This is a power that surpasses the limits of their understanding, a power that is enough to make the entire civilization of Earth feel despair.
"The analysis results are in," an expert said. "Based on the strength of its devouring force field and energy fluctuations it just displayed, the preliminary judgment is... its strength is at the ninth level of the planetary level, and it may even have already stepped into the eternal level."
Planetary level nine!
Star level!
The strongest creatures on Earth, "Hong" and "Thor," are only planetary level!
"It's over..." A congressman, his face ashen, slumped into his chair. "The end of the world... it's really here."
"How can we fight this? There's no way we can fight this!"
"Even the war base was swallowed whole; our bodies wouldn't even be enough to fill a tooth gap in its jaws!"
The lawmakers were completely panicked.
"quiet!"
Hong's deep voice rang out.
Panic solves nothing.
Thor spoke up, his usually volatile temper now subsiding: "What kind of behavior is this, crying and wailing! The worst that can happen is death! Before I die, I'll tear a piece of flesh from this beast!"
Hong nodded, his gaze sweeping over each councilor, and finally said in a deep voice, "Now, there is only one way."
All eyes instantly turned to him.
"Lure it to a pre-planned battlefield deep in the Pacific Ocean."
"Use nuclear weapons!"
……
A plan was quickly devised.
This is humanity's last trump card, and its only hope.
The luring plan was executed with unusual "smoothness." The cosmic behemoth named "Golden Horned Beast" seemed to have no defenses against the weak "insects" on Earth. It was easily attracted by several intelligent fighter jets and chased them all the way into the designated sea area deep in the Pacific Ocean.
At that moment, the eyes of all the base cities around the world were focused on this place.
emission!
One after another, nuclear bombs, carrying the most destructive power of human civilization, streaked across the sky from secret bases around the world, trailing long plumes of flame, and were precisely aimed at that sea area!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
An explosion occurred that defied description.
The blinding white light instantly engulfed everything on the screen.
Next up is the most powerful nuclear bomb.
A giant mushroom cloud rose over the Pacific Ocean, as if the end of the world had arrived.
The entire Earth seemed to tremble slightly under the terrifying explosion.
Inside the conference room, everyone was glued to the screen.
Did you make it?
In such a dense nuclear explosion center, even a star-level powerhouse would be dead, right?
The smoke and dust slowly dissipated.
On the sea surface, a bottomless giant pit appeared, and the surrounding seawater was rushing in frantically.
The radiation detector readings have already exceeded the maximum allowable limit.
however……
As the satellite image zoomed in and the camera was pointed at the center of the giant crater...
The Devouring Beast still hovers above the sea!
Its golden scales were mostly broken, revealing the charred flesh beneath.
It was injured.
but……
It didn't die!
"roar--!!!"
A roar that echoed throughout the heavens and earth!
The golden-horned behemoth transformed into a golden streak of light, moving at an incredible speed, and charged straight toward the North American base city!
It will take revenge! It will crush all those "insects" that dare to harm it!
"Oh no!" Hong's face turned extremely ugly for the first time.
However, the nightmare had only just begun.
Almost at the same time that the Golden Horned Beast charged toward the North American base city.
Oceans around the world seem to have received some kind of summons.
slam-la-
The sea surface was torn apart, and one after another, enormous king-level monsters rose into the sky from the deep sea!
Octopus Beast King, Thunder Dragon King, Sea God Whale...
Tens of thousands, countless king-level monsters, and their hundreds of millions of sea monsters, swept across the world like black clouds of death, fearlessly rushing towards the major coastal base cities around the globe!
The war broke out in the most brutal and desperate way!
Human civilization has entered its darkest day since its great rebirth.
At the same time, major base cities around the world sounded the highest level of war alert.
Yangzhou City was no exception.
Above the sea, enormous, despair-inducing black shadows are breaking through the water.
King-level monster!
There's more than one!
They unleashed a colossal wave, carrying billions of beasts, and were charging fiercely towards the city where he lived!
Lu Yun's communicator vibrated wildly, displaying an emergency deployment order from a councilor, requiring all councilors to guard their respective areas and resist the beast tide.
His brain was working at an unimaginable speed at that moment.
he knows.
He knew perfectly well that as long as he hid himself away and found a safe place to hide, he would have a high probability of surviving this crisis by relying on the methods of a planetary-level mentalist.
The Golden Horned Beast will eventually be dealt with by Luo Feng.
Human civilization may suffer great damage, but it will eventually continue.
As Luo Feng's teacher, he could naturally reap huge benefits once Luo Feng grew up and entered the universe.
Resources, secret techniques, status...
In this lifetime, achieving immortality through cultivation is not a problem.
In that way, he can collect more achievement points, paving an incredibly secure path to heaven for his next life, and the life after that.
This is the most rational and optimal choice.
but……
Is that really the case?
Lu Yun's gaze fell on the soldiers who were building a defensive line with their own flesh and blood.
This is not a game.
These are all living, breathing people.
Having taught at the Jiangnan Military Academy for so many years, the vivid faces of the students he had taught flashed through his mind.
Now, many of his students have joined the army, right there on that defensive line.
They are risking their lives to fight against this apocalyptic beast tide.
Should I hide behind them?
To know.
They don't have any reincarnation.
If you die, you're really dead.
Once you die, you lose everything.
Yet they still choose to fight for their motherland, for the homes lit up with countless lights, for their parents, wives, and children…
They did not hesitate to give up their one and only precious lives for everything they cherished and loved.
What about yourself?
Having the potential for countless lifetimes and almost limitless possibilities, why should I hide behind them?
To seek so-called long-term benefits by clinging to life and scheming against people's hearts?
Even if one were to reach the pinnacle of the Hunyuan Lord through this method, so what?
Is that the same strong person I am?
Do not!
This is not the path I want to take!
Lu Yun's eyes suddenly became incredibly sharp!
He would never become timid and hesitant just for the sake of so-called "safety"!
Just like...
Just like my previous life.
Even if I only have one life, I dare to dedicate myself to my country for the beliefs in my heart!
This is Lu Yun's true nature!
At this moment, his mind was clearer than ever before, and the miniature planet crystal in his sea of consciousness seemed to become even more dazzling.
Lu Yun took a step forward.
boom!
He transformed into a dazzling streak of light and charged headlong toward the coastline stained red with blood and gunfire!
