A tremendous force was infused into the man's body from the foot. The man didn't even grunt before he was sent flying away, as if he was hit by a train.
However, what was even more unacceptable was that this kick, which already possessed great power, also contained other powers.
A power that could tear one's soul rampaged inside the man's body, as if a raging rhino was tossed inside.
If it was pure physical damage, it would still be acceptable to them. However, this kind of attack that directly damaged the soul was unacceptable to them.
Kak, Kak, Kak!
While flying in the air, the joints and muscles of the man's body began to twist. It was as if an invisible hand had grabbed him. In just a few seconds, the man's human body had turned into a towel that was wrung dry.
"Aaaaaargh!"
Amidst the screams that humans could not make, a black mist flew out from the body that was distorted to the extreme and merged into the surrounding darkness.
Instantly, the silent darkness that devoured the light turned into rumbling mist. A while later, a giant humanoid face was born from the mist.
Kakroom!
As the giant humanoid face appeared, strange black lightning bolts appeared in the sky, as if they were born from the giant humanoid face.
Everyone who saw the strange lightning bolts, be it a commoner or an Extraordinary individual, felt fear from the bottom of their hearts.
It was an instinctive fear!
Or rather, it was a fear that came from the soul!
"The one that went to the hospital was your clone?
Although I had some guesses, I never thought your real body would be waiting for me here!
In my thoughts, this place should also be a clone. "
The giant humanoid face looked down at Kieran who appeared at the entrance with a condescending posture.
The man's tone was casual and his posture was relaxed.
He didn't seem to care about the kick from before.
Likewise, he didn't care about Kieran either, talking on his own.
"When you defeated Grudge Dragon, we've been guessing your level of awakening.
The third generation bloodline of some historical existence?
"Or is it the second generation?"
When we came to this conclusion, we were shocked.
Because … "
"We should have slaughtered your ancestors a long time ago."
"But you still appeared!"
"A Demon Lord hiding in a corner of history?"
"That's right, a Demon Overlord!"
"Only the bloodline of the Devil Overlord can create a first generation direct bloodline like you, even if it's because of atavism."
"But it was enough to surprise us."
"So, we ignored the four idiots' attempts to test you further. Then, we got a satisfactory answer. You should be the one we're looking for!"
The other party went on and on.
In the end, he even let out a burst of wild laughter that sounded like muffled thunder.
"Are you curious as to why we are looking for you?"
"You must be curious, right?"
"But I won't tell you!"
"I've said so much just to stall for time. After all, it's quite time-consuming to gather more helpers."
The huge humanoid face said mockingly.
So what if he was a first-generation demon descendant?
Without the guidance of an elder.
There was no real tempering of life and death.
It was just a few battles in a city. What was the big deal?
From the other party's point of view, he was like a flower in a greenhouse.
Facing such an opponent, no matter how powerful he was, it would be easy to take him down.
As long as …
He could make him panic!
And he could do it easily!
The moment the words subsided, a whistling sound appeared.
It wasn't the wind!
It was louder than the storm.
It was filled with unwillingness!
It was filled with hatred!
Translucent figures appeared from the ground one after another. They had lost their intellect a long time ago, all they had was hatred towards the living.
Ghosts!
Tens of thousands of ghosts appeared, densely packed together.
They stood in the darkness, looking at the direction that the darkness was pointing at with a blank but hateful gaze: Kieran.
"A ghost, very weak."
"A little sunlight can turn it into ashes."
"But a thousand, ten thousand, a hundred thousand?"
"Can you feel the cold?"
"Under such concentrated negative energy, even the sunlight will be blocked, the sun will have to retreat!"
"And you?"
"What can a first-generation demon descendant use to fight against them?"
"Your fire?"
"Hehehe, I'm sorry, fire is forbidden here!"
"Of course, the soul-tearing power you used just now is quite useful. I'm looking forward to your battle with my army of ghosts, just like how I watched that idiot challenge the 'Dragon of Disaster' back then. Isn't it just the death of a father, a mother, a wife, a daughter, and a son?"
"What's so great about that, isn't it?"
The giant humanoid face showed a malicious smile.
It was looking forward to the furious expression of the Devil Descendant.
However, what made the giant humanoid face frown was that the Devil Descendant wasn't angry at all, instead, he was looking at it calmly.
The calmness in his gaze made the giant humanoid face uncomfortable.
And a sense of anxiety!
Anxiety?
What a joke!
How could a mere Devil Descendant see through its plan?
"I hate your gaze, 2567."
"I will let you know what regret is!"
After the giant humanoid face uttered each and every word, the ghosts in the darkness that were emanating a special soul light, revealing themselves in Kieran's sight.
The ghosts then charged towards Kieran like a rising tide.
Kieran's expression didn't change at all. He raised his right hand and pressed it on the door frame, activating the Dawn Force in his body.
Wung!
Amidst the slight vibrations, a dazzling white dot appeared in the darkness.
The light was warm but tenacious.
It was like a sheathed sword.
Even though it was sheathed, it was still sharp against the enemy.
Bit by bit, it gathered into a myriad of lights within a breath's time. In the darkness, it was like the rising sun, shedding its light over the mountains, rivers, fields, and … the mortal world.
[Seal of Dawn]!
The Seal of Dawn that enveloped the whole of Randletine Street!
The ghost army that was as ferocious as a tidal wave was annihilated by the light.
Not just the ghost army, even the darkness was rumbling rapidly, as if a bucket of cold water was poured into hot oil.
The cold water, including the bucket of cold water, exploded!
KABOOM!
The giant humanoid face wailed in agony as it retreated. Kieran, who had been standing still, slowly walked up. A sharp aura started to faintly show itself.
"The sun will retreat, the sun will avoid.
But I won't.
"I'll wait here for your arrival …"
"Slash!"
Chang!
Amidst the light, the sheathed sword was unsheathed!
A 65 meters long light sword was swung out from Kieran's hand and slashed over the giant humanoid face.
It was straight and sharp.
A single slash cut it in half.
The giant humanoid face was filled with disbelief, its ears were still echoing with the unsheathing noise and it was already cut in half.
Fast and powerful!
Just as it was about to die, an epiphany suddenly surged into its mind.
He … He was also stalling …
Bang!
Just as the realization rose in the giant humanoid face's mind, it was interrupted by a kick.
Kieran's foot landed on the giant humanoid face. Other than the face getting a little bigger, it didn't change at all and was sent flying away.
The black mist instantly dissipated.
The strange black lightning was gone as well.
The temperature that was as cold as winter also returned to normal.
The bright moonlight shone down from the sky, sprinkling over the land like a layer of frost. The scene was so beautiful that it gave one a faint sense of tranquil beauty.
In the corner, the dark golden glow that only Kieran could see added a sense of joy to the scene.
However, Kieran didn't even bat an eye.
He looked up at the sky that seemed to have returned to normal.
Dawn Force gathered once more.
Two seconds later, another Dawn Force slashed down from the sky.
BANG!
KABOOM!
The giant light sword smashed into the night sky, followed by the heavy thud of a battering ram hitting a city gate.
Then, a loud explosion followed.
The explosion was comparable to a ton of explosives, the night sky was split open.
Kak, Kak, Kak!
Cracks appeared on the porcelain and glass in the night sky after they were hit.
"What is that meow?
The sky is split open meow? "
Kat Lady, who squatted outside Randletine Street and watched the scene, couldn't help but cry out in shock.
"It's not the sky!
It's … "
The Knight paused and didn't continue. Instead, he turned around to the members of the operation behind him.
At the next moment, the oldest superhero in Alkender City said, "Kat Lady, Fortress, Silencer, Machinist, step out!
I order you all to go to the shelter and protect the civilians!
Willis, you are to guide them at all times!
Tell Drexton to activate the emergency passageway! "
Order after order came out of the Knight's mouth.
The extraordinary individuals at the scene were confused but none of them disobeyed the Knight's orders.
It wasn't just because of the Knight's prestige, it was also because they were used to letting the Knight command the situation in every battle.
In a certain aspect, even Drexton couldn't compare to the armored elder.
The extraordinary individuals left one after another.
The Knight sighed softly as he watched the figures vanish into the darkness. He looked at the Weapon Master opposite him with a heavy expression.
"The big guy hiding somewhere is about to break in!"
He tried to calm himself down but his voice was still trembling uncontrollably.
"Yup.
Never thought we would run into it in the end! "
Weapon Master nodded slightly, his aged face showing a sense of shock. Then, it was replaced by determination. Weapon Master stared at the Knight.
Both of them smiled at the same time as if they had a tacit understanding.
Their smiles were calm and relaxed.
The Knight didn't let Weapon Master leave.
It was because Weapon Master knew what it meant.
Besides …
Weapon Master had his own reasons to stay.
But the young ones didn't.
They still had room for growth and endless possibilities.
As for him?
He was too old.
He was so old that his strength started to decline and his mind wasn't as sharp as before.
Rather than dying on the sickbed.
He might as well pave the way for the young ones.
Just like his ancestors!
The Knight gripped his sword hilt tightly and looked at the young man on the street.
He was the one with the most hope.
He would never allow anything to happen to Kieran.
Dak Dak Dak!
The Knight strode forward. Weapon Master gripped his staff tightly and chased after him. The two of the oldest extraordinary individuals walked side by side towards the night sky that was still shattering.
The cracks were stacking up and when it reached a certain limit, it would shatter into pieces.
However, it would take time!
"Around half an hour!"
The Knight calculated.
"It's enough, it's enough to buy time for them!"
Weapon Master replied.
"Leave this place to us, 2567, leave at once!
If it's possible, I hope you can replace me in the future and rebuild Alkender City. "
The 'knight' turned his head and said in the manner of saying his last words.
"You don't have to go through all that trouble on my side. All you need to do is tell Martial Dark that I'm sorry for what happened back then and … try not to harm her life."
Weapon Master requested.
Kieran looked down and shifted his gaze from the shattered night sky to the two elders who were ready to burn themselves to death.
"No.
I'm busy.
It's too troublesome. "
Kieran rejected the two elders right away and looked at the shattered night sky again.
Immediately, the two old Extraordinaires became anxious.
"2567, your strength is obvious for all to see!"
But you are not a match for it!
You never knew how scary it was!
It's … "
"The Calamity Dragon?"
Kieran interrupted the Knight.
The two old Transcendents were immediately stunned.
"You have the inherited memories of your bloodline?!"
The Knight's eyes shone.
If 2567 really had the inherited memories of his bloodline, then the situation would be much better than he thought. At least rebuilding Alkender City was no longer a hopeless hope.
"No."
Kieran shook his head.
Immediately, the eyes of the two old Transcendents dimmed.
That's right!
How could it be?
If 2567 really had the inherited memories of his bloodline, he would know what the scene before his eyes meant.
"2567, you might not have the inherited memories but your potential is limitless, so you shouldn't be here …"
Kak, Kak, Kak!
The Knight still wanted to persuade Kieran.
At this time, the cracks in the night sky became more and more concentrated.
"So fast?!"
"It's too late!"
The two elders looked at each other and then at Kieran with an apologetic gaze before turning around.
"I'm sorry we didn't let you live.
I hope you won't hate us. "
The Knight and Weapon Master took a deep breath and looked at the sky.
Suddenly, the Knight knelt down on one knee and Weapon Master sat down with his legs crossed.
His greatsword was placed in front of his chest.
His staff was placed on his knees.
"There's no hope!"
The Knight shouted.
"There's only death!"
Weapon Master chanted softly.
"Calamity descends!"
The greatsword in the Knight's hand started to shine in a white light.
"Sacrifice yourself for …"
Pak, Pak!
Before the chant of "Weapon Master" could finish, it was stopped abruptly by Kieran's chop.
The two elders never thought they would be attacked by Kieran.
They were caught off guard and fainted just like that.
Kieran held the two of them and laid them down on the ground. Ferris, who was further away, walked over quickly.
"Take care of them."
"Yes, my lord."
Ferris nodded, picked up the two elders and ran further away.
Kieran didn't agree to the elders' request because he thought it would be better for them to do it themselves, but it didn't stop him from respecting them.
Those who could sacrifice themselves for others were heroes.
Not everyone had the courage to be a hero.
But …
Heroes should at least be respected.
They deserved to be respected, not ridiculed by ignorant people.
After seeing Ferris off, Kieran looked up again.
At this time, the cracks had reached an extreme.
Pak!
A clear crack later, the night sky shattered.
A huge void hole, more than 30 km in diameter, appeared in the night sky.
Through the void hole, Kieran saw the monster with the head of a dragon and the body of a lion, covered in scales.
It was huge and ominous.
Bloodthirsty!
The monster's ruthless eyes stared at Kieran, who dared to stare at it, but it wasn't slow at all. The moment the hole in the void stabilized, the monster let out a loud roar and threw itself out.
"I am Calamity!
I descend … Ugh?! "
Before the roar that represented its return faded, it turned into an anxious and doubtful voice.
This was because the Void Cave that had just stabilized began to ripple again. It began to … shrink!
Although it only shrunk a little, it was just enough to hold its gigantic body.
What happened?
Calamity Dragon was filled with doubts.
Kieran, who was standing on the ground, curled his lips into a bright smile.
