Chapter 168 Nuking Ludun

The fireballs fell, buildings began to collapse, and the ground was smashed into huge craters, causing the temperature in the air to skyrocket.

The entire city of Ludun was like hell.

Anti-aircraft guns were activated, and some shells weaved a net in the sky to block the falling fireballs, attempting to detonate them in the air. However, this had little effect. The Star Apostle could control flames, and when the anti-aircraft shells exploded in the air, the resulting high-temperature energy was controlled again, condensing into even larger fireballs that fell.

Inside Ludun, as the fireballs continued to bombard the city, the General Affairs Building collapsed, and the Abbey Iron Tower, claimed to have a three-hundred-year history, was melted. Ordinary soldiers frantically rushed to underground air-raid shelters. In this terrifying high-temperature hell, any creature remaining on the surface would be burned to ashes.

A raging fire soared into the sky.

On the ruins in front of the Prime Minister's Office, the Prime Minister of Y Country was filled with despair. He pushed away the captain of the guard, who was lying on top of him and had been burned into a charred corpse by the high temperature, and muttered to himself, "There is no...no other choice!"

"Use fighter jets to drop nuclear missiles on Ludun!"

An hour ago, he had heard about the tragedy in Carl City, but he didn't take it to heart because he believed the military force in Ludun could defend against an Ancient King.

Although the second-stage evolved creatures were incredibly powerful, there was only one!

Could a nuclear power, once among the top five civilizations in human history, be unable to fight against even a second-stage evolved king?

Now, the Prime Minister of Y Country knew the answer to that question.

But the price was too heavy.

"These Ancient Kings are much, much stronger than the secondary followers. They are not in the same category or level!" The Prime Minister of Y Country said in despair. On the human defense line, pioneers had also killed some second-stage evolvers, but based on the strength displayed by the Star Apostle, if those that had appeared on the battlefield had been them instead of the secondary sequence followers, then even if the pioneers had fought desperately, they wouldn't have been able to reverse the fate of being destroyed.

If the Sky Castle Master, that dark green giant dragon, relied entirely on its incredibly powerful physical body, then the Storm Apostle and Star Apostle who had broken into the human world possessed powers that were already in the realm of "magic"!

There was no doubt that the dark green giant dragon was a God-Descended second-stage evolver.

And the Storm Apostle and Star Apostle were both Ancient God-type evolvers!

Their appearance meant that Li Tianran's path of evolution was no longer the only one in this world.

Ancient God-type abilities might not be as flexible and useful as God-Descended or Zhineng-type in some areas, but judging from the three Ancient God-type evolvers that had appeared so far, their abilities all had one characteristic.

That was extremely terrifying destructive power!

The first-stage evolver Li Tianran could easily cause a wide range of creatures' hearts to suffer heavy pressure and die, and he could also easily make ten-ton sources of water and heavy objects lose weight and rise into the air, and then fall at a speed of a hundred times the force of gravity, with a potential energy close to that of a meteorite!

The second-stage evolvers, the Storm Apostle and Star Apostle, could easily destroy a city with their abilities.

The appearance of the Ancient God-types seemed to be born for large-scale warfare!

Relying on numerical superiority couldn't pose a threat to the Ancient God-types at all!

"Boom!"

A flare exploded in the air, but it was not obvious in the blazing fire.

The roar of fighter jets sounded in the distance.

Since human civilization changed the way intercontinental nuclear weapons were launched, fighter jets carrying nuclear missiles had become the norm at major nuclear powers' air force bases. Even if they weren't going out to fight, they would ensure that nuclear missiles were ready to be launched during routine patrols, just to deal with sudden situations like this.

"A temperature of ten thousand degrees cannot kill you, but a temperature of a million degrees... I don't believe you can still ignore it!" The Prime Minister looked at the oncoming fighter jets, a crazy look on his face.

The vitality of a second-stage evolver might be strong, but it definitely wouldn't reach the point where it could ignore nuclear weapons. Even if the Star Apostle had the ability to control flames, the terrifying energy waves generated when nuclear weapons exploded were completely different from the heavy artillery of tanks!

The Star Apostle could survive the bombardment of tanks and withstand the shock waves of heavy tank artillery, but the terrifying energy of nuclear weapons could instantly tear its body into the finest meat scraps!

Apart from the terrifying pressure of the deep sea, the Prime Minister didn't know what else in this world could withstand the explosive waves of nuclear weapons!

The deep sea...

That's right, the deep sea!

The Prime Minister suddenly froze.

He thought of something.

There was a very famous river in London, the Thames!

The deepest area of this river was nearly one hundred meters deep. Although it couldn't be compared with the deep sea, this amount of water was enough to weaken the all-destroying nuclear shock wave many times over. Relying on its powerful vitality, if the Star Apostle hid in the Thames before the nuclear missile fell, then the entire city of Ludun wouldn't be able to perish together with it even if it wanted to!

The Prime Minister looked up. Only then did he realize that the Star Apostle was long gone.

...

The center of Ludun, the west side of the Thames, the tall and majestic St. Paul's Cathedral.

The Star Apostle stood on top of this legendary cathedral, the Thames River rushing below. It looked at the fighter jets flying in the sky, raised its arms, and a large number of fireballs rose again, smashing towards the city like a rain of meteorites.

Countless buildings were collapsing under the terrifying fire rain.

This city would soon become a dead city like Carl City.

It looked at the large number of fighter jets circling in the sky, but it hesitated to drop nuclear missiles. It suddenly laughed.

It knew what the other side was worried about.

Once nuclear missiles were dropped, whether or not it could be killed was unknown, but what was certain was that this extremely important and grand city would definitely be reduced to ashes.

This was the benefit of acting alone. Human's weapons of mass destruction were difficult to target effectively!

But at this moment, the Star Apostle's gaze suddenly turned in one direction.

Sonic booms sounded in that direction. Almost at the same time as the sound, five azure beams of light tearing through the sky arrived with a bang!

Boom!

St. Paul's Cathedral was instantly reduced to ashes!

The Star Apostle dodged rapidly, crashing through two buildings!

Five massive figures descended from the sky, landing heavily on both sides of the river.

They were the five Mech Warriors that had been tracking all the way from Carl City!

At this moment, a giant spear fell like a heaven-splitting, god-slaying weapon, cutting a building in half!

The building collapsed, revealing the figure of the Star Apostle in the ruins!

Five pairs of azure electronic eyes instantly turned red.

An extremely cold electronic voice sounded.

"City destroyer."

"Found you."
