Chapter 326: Nuclear Blast on Anteverse Planet, Golden Armored Corpse Evolution (Requesting Monthly Tickets)
On the Planet Surface, within that massive War Beast manufacturing factory, the Precursors were calibrating new War Beasts.
The Precursors had a history of developing and manufacturing War Beasts for millions of years; how many years did the history of human civilization's evolution span in total?
After the Kaiju attack was thwarted, the Precursors quickly formulated targeted adjustment plans.
Based on the enemies the War Beasts encountered on that Blue Planet, the Precursors were modifying these Kaiju.
Swarm-like fleets transported large amounts of Metal Ore from the Mining Planets they occupied.
These ores were transported into machines resembling blenders. The dissolved Liquid Metal was continuously sent into the Kaiju's Incubation Chambers through pipes.
Immediately after, within the Incubation Chambers, special machinery resembling filling machines became active, injecting the strange Liquid Metal into the bodies of these Flesh and Blood Creatures.
Just before these mechanical Kaiju emerged from the Incubation Chambers, under the movement of flexible Mechanical Arms, a batch of Alloy Exoskeleton Outer Armor was roughly installed onto the bodies of those Kaiju. Steel screws were driven into the monsters' Flesh and Blood, fusing with the Liquid Metal solidified within their bodies.
This modification was crude and terrifying.
The sounds echoing through the Ruins of the entire Anteverse Planet were simply like a Flesh and Blood factory undergoing horrifying processing.
War Beasts injected with Liquid Metal and equipped with Exoskeleton Metal Armor were extremely formidable. If a Level 3 Kaiju weighed several thousand tons, roughly the size of a large Warship, then an 'armed to the teeth' Kaiju could reach a weight of ten thousand tons. The ten-meter-thick Exoskeleton Armor was sufficient to withstand most of human civilization's Firearms.
Just like Knifehead, its headbutt, which closely resembled a shark's head, had sharp Alloy Metal shovel blades embedded in its head, enough to cut off the hard Scales of the Earth Guardian Beasts.
Leatherback's back armor was covered with spikes flashing with Cold Light. These spikes were prepared for that Planet Guardian Beast resembling a monster fish.
Leviathan had chewed up quite a few Kaiju, so the Precursors formulated corresponding combat plans.
In the Incubation Chambers, pulsing Laser Knives cut open the Poisonous Woman's brains, stuffing complex Circuit Systems into the heads of these creatures.
This was an enhanced version of the Electromagnetic Pulse Device. Once this biological electromagnetic pulse erupted, it was enough to paralyze all Earth machinery within thirty kilometers.
They were targeting Earth's Exoskeleton Suits and human civilization's Warships.
The round, bulging Kaiju resembling a Pufferfish, nearly a hundred meters in Body Size, looked like a wriggling ball, appearing completely without Aggressiveness.
However, its body was full of nasty stuff. After this self-destructing Kaiju exploded, it could splash out several thousand tons of toxic biological fluid. This prepared toxic biological fluid was aimed at the dense crowds of Angels!
Looking down from Outer Space at this moment, countless Kaiju stood in formation on Anteverse Planet. The massive Giant Beasts were like Sculptures, solemn yet radiating ferocious killing intent.
It seemed they could completely flatten human civilization in the next moment.
"Wormhole Sixteen, Trojan Bomb is in place, over!"
On Earth, at this time, the gazes of many Important Figures were focused on those twenty Wormholes.
On the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier Command Ship, Maria Hill looked at the twenty screens split on the Command Screen before her. Each screen corresponded to an underwater Breach.
Around each Wormhole, besides the alert Vessels and Military, many people's gazes were focused on the Iron Soldiers, two by two, lifting a Nuclear Warhead.
The Iron Soldiers, whose design was extremely similar to Tony Stark's Iron Suit, were products rushed and modified by Tang Group.
Inside them, besides the option for Manual Control, a backup program was set up to run automatically after Signal Isolation. This was to prevent Information lag after passing through the Wormhole, which could affect the Nuclear Bomb's activation.
The twenty Nuclear Warheads were contributed by the Federation, *Country, and Russia. After all, in terms of mushroom count, these three could be said to be the world's largest mushroom growers.
Among the twenty Nuclear Warheads, one-third were Hydrogen Warheads provided by *Country. *Country scientists made minor modifications to these Hydrogen Warheads, adding an Atomic Bomb ignition program inside. It was said that the yield of these six Hydrogen Warheads could reach an astonishing fifty million tons equivalent.
At the World Security Council's Trojan Plan Secret Meeting, when the *Country Representative stated this yield, the representatives of the other countries all wore a look of utter bewilderment.
The Federation Representative even had an expression like: "See, I told you, he really has it!"
In fact, there's indeed a big difference between saying you have it and actually having it! The Federation Representative only made a verbal protest to the cheerfully smiling *Country Representative, after all, he really had big mushrooms!
Splitting the conversation, ever since S.H.I.E.L.D. was completely assigned under the World Security Council's name, due to the increasing number of Alien terrorist attack incidents in recent years, the power of S.H.I.E.L.D., this Agent organization under the World Security Council's name, also rose accordingly. Maria Hill could almost be said to be one of the women with the greatest Power in this World.
But looking at the calm Sea Surface on the surveillance screen, the solemn and chilling atmosphere, even though Maria Hill had experienced countless major scenes, her Voice still trembled slightly when giving the Order.
"Trojan Plan, activate!"
Along with Maria Hill's command, Worldwide, on the Sea Surface around twenty underwater Breaches, the modified Iron Soldiers' feet sprayed Blue Plasma Flames. Two by two, holding Nuclear Warheads, they rushed into the Sea Surface, heading straight into the underwater Breaches.
The Gold-Red Iron Armor, with Blue Plasma Flames spraying from its hands and feet, hovered in the air. Tony Stark looked at the real-time video sent by the Mark-type Underwater Armor on the Projection Screen.
When he saw the Iron Soldiers, whose entire bodies were covered with Bionic Skin made from Alien Giant Beast Flesh and Blood, carrying Nuclear Warheads also covered with a layer of camouflage, pass through the Wormhole's Blue Barrier, Tony Stark pretended to be relaxed and said in the Communication Channel, "Wormhole Seventeen succeeded!"
Almost simultaneously, other Outposts also sent good news: "Trojan has entered Wormhole Six!"
"Wormhole Nine, bomb has been deployed!"
"Iron Soldiers have entered Wormhole Eleven!"
"Urah, two Capable Lads have already penetrated, Wormhole Three!"
Within the Command System at this moment, there was a burst of uncontrollable Cheers.
"I really want to see the scene of the Nuclear Bombs exploding on those Alien planets, it will be an unprecedented fireworks show!"
In France, a young President sighed in relief upon seeing the Trojan Plan succeed. While holding up a glass of Celebration Champagne, he said with some longing.
In fact, in the Outer Space above Anteverse Planet, two figures, one tall and one short, were enjoying this grand-scale fireworks show.
Tang Song stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking down at the huge Mushroom Clouds rising from the planet below.
The volume of this planet below was two to three times the size of Earth. Even twenty ten-million-ton level Nuclear Bombs could not possibly destroy a planet.
Unless the Nuclear Warheads were detonated directly inside the planet's Planet Core.
However, the explosion of twenty Nuclear Bombs within these Alien Buildings was enough to destroy these Alien giant beast manufacturing factories.
The Iron Soldiers, who had invaded this planet in reverse through the underwater Breach, activated the Nuclear Bombs according to instructions the moment they passed through the Wormhole.
(The Nuclear Bombs had a timely activation backup program. Even if the Iron Soldiers could not activate the program, these backup programs would detonate the Nuclear Bombs.)
The modified Kaiju that were lining up in front of the Wormhole, preparing to enter that Blue Planet, were instantly enveloped by large balls of Firelight in the next moment.
To maximize the killing effect, even the Arc Reactors inside the Iron Soldiers carrying the Nuclear Bombs were specially modified. The yield generated by their self-destruction was completely not inferior to a Tactical Nuclear Warhead.
The Shockwaves generated by the explosion of dozens of Nuclear Bombs churned the planet's Atmosphere, forming huge cloud masses.
Balls of fiery red fireworks bloomed on the Ground under the Mushroom Clouds, like blooming red lotuses. Among the white cloud roses, a mass of red continuously spread outwards from the stamen, gradually rendering the entire flower into a fiery red, which was extremely beautiful.
The magnificent fireworks rendered by Death made Gu Zi Yun's eyes, standing beside Tang Song, reveal an intoxicated expression. She linked Tang Song's arm, and her long, straight legs couldn't help but rub together.
Tang Song looked down at the area below the planet covered by fireworks. Within the range of his vision, firelight swallowed everything. Even rocks melted into crystals in the High Temperature of over six thousand degrees.
The explosion of twenty Nuclear Bombs instantly destroyed most of the Living Beings in this Alien Base. However, some life still survived this Nuclear Bomb Crisis.
Tang Song's divine sense swept over, and he could even hear the painful wailing of the surviving Giant Beasts and Aliens.
Boss Tang was a great benevolent person who couldn't bear to see others suffer. Looking at the dilapidated Alien Architecture on the Planet Surface, the Giant Beasts whose lower bodies were carbonized by the Nuclear Bomb's Power, and the Alien life that escaped by hiding on Spaceships, Tang Song sighed. Spiritual light flashed in his Eyes. A stream of Two-Color Yin-Yang Qi Flow rushed out from the top of his head. A Golden Figure rushed out from the divided Yin-Yang Fish.
The next moment, the Golden Armored Corpse King opened its eyes, just like two Blood Red Suns suddenly appeared in Space. Bloodlight scattered across the sky. In an instant, half the sky was covered by the bloodlight emitted from the Golden Armored Corpse King's eyes.
The Golden Armored Corpse King opened its mouth. Two sharp fangs extended from the upper and lower lips. Monstrous black corpse qi swept in all directions. On the Ground, it seemed as if a black tornado was blowing.
The Level 19 black tornado swept over the surface. Whether it was the corpses of Kaiju turned to ash in the Nuclear Explosion or the charred and wailing Giant Beasts, they all turned into blood rain in this black tornado, completely shattered and thoroughly assimilated into extremely Yin and evil corpse qi.
As more and more giant beast remains were devoured by this black tornado, in the blink of an eye, the tornado expanded into a wind pillar connecting Heaven and Earth, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. Under the influence of this hundreds of kilometers thick black tornado pillar, the entire sky above Anteverse Planet was filled with lightning and thunder. Gale winds rolled dark clouds surging, and instantly heavy rain poured down.
Washing away this nuclear-contaminated land.
Between the Golden Armored Corpse King's breaths, black corpse qi continuously injected into its body. The wind force of the corpse qi tornado also became increasingly exaggerated. Even at the end, large chunks of rock and soil layers were directly lifted up by the corpse qi tornado.
Those inconspicuous insects and ants hidden in the Soil Layer, even microorganisms, also turned into a wisp of corpse qi, a stream of Green Smoke Departed Souls in the black tornado.
Even at the end, under the lifted rock ground, fiery red light even appeared. That was the Lava flow overflowing from under the planet's rock layer.
The corpse qi tornado rolled up the Lava, sending this geothermal heat into the Golden Armored Corpse King's mouth.
Continuous firelight flowed backwards along the black tornado and was swallowed into the Golden Armored Corpse King's body, turning the black tornado into a fiery red. Looking from afar, the black sky-connecting wind pillar seemed to have turned into a sky-connecting fire pillar.
From Gu Zi Yun's perspective, it was like this golden armored monster was using a red drinking straw to suck on a Coconut.
As the amount of absorbed geothermal lava increased, the hard golden armor on the Golden Armored Corpse King's body surface gradually softened and faded. Those sharp fingernails also began to retract.
The golden scales on its face faded, revealing pale skin resembling human skin.
It should be known that the Golden Armored Corpse King's predecessor was not human. After being refined into a body-protecting armored corpse by Tang Song, she then underwent changes according to Tang Song's expectations.
Tang Song felt the changes within this Golden Armored Corpse King's body and detected a wisp of divine sense being born within the Golden Armored Corpse King.
Obviously, after devouring most of the planet's life, the Golden Armored Corpse King was currently using the power of devouring this planet's core to transform into a higher-level life form.
This form, recorded in Heshan Dao, is named Hanba. Legend says the first Hanba was the Daughter of the Yellow Emperor, a Heavenly Maiden, an Ancient Drought God.
From the Founding Ancestor establishing the sect until Tang Song's transmigration, the most formidable armored corpse refined by Heshan Dao was the Golden Armored Corpse King. As for Ba, that is an existence in legend that causes drought for a thousand li upon birth, which cannot be refined by human power.
Even Tang Song himself, in the Yanfu Source, hasn't seen many truly mature Hanba. As for the so-called Hanba in Jambudvīpa World that Cultivators perform demon slaying on, at most they are some zombies that have absorbed poison fire.
A truly mature Hanba is an existence that can contend with Deities.
Watching the evolving Golden Armored Corpse King, Tang Song laughed loudly, "Wonderful!"
Seeing that the heat of the boiling lava was continuously flowing away, condensing into large chunks of rock layers, affecting the Golden Armored Corpse King's speed of devouring lava, Tang Song raised his hand. That silver cane, tempered countless times, appeared in his Palm. Two sword pills attached themselves, spinning, turning into the two eyeballs of a beast head.
This wasn't all. Tang Song sprayed a mouthful of natal vital qi onto this staff sword. At the same time, at his Wrist, the red light of the Reality Stone enveloped this staff sword.
With a light hum, Tang Song drew the sword from its sheath. The next moment, the entire planet under Tang Song's feet trembled.
Tang Song swung out a sword. A streak of sword light slashed towards Anteverse Planet. As the sword light left the sword implement in Tang Song's hand, it became longer and larger.
By the time it reached Anteverse Planet's surface, it had already turned into a several-thousand-kilometer-long silver radiance.
*Tear!*
The silver radiance submerged into the planet's surface, just like a silver shadow, casually and lightly, as if nothing happened to Anteverse Planet.
"Uncle!"
Tang Song returned the sword to its sheath. Gu Zi Yun looked curiously at the motionless planet, a bit disappointed. She tugged at Tang Song's arm, seeming to want to ask him what was going on with this strike that seemed like a lot of sound and fury.
Tang Song reached out and pinched her face, saying with a smile, "Let the sword qi fly for a while!"
Before Tang Song's words fell, Anteverse Planet was like a boiling kettle, its lid directly pushed skyward by the steam.
Gu Zi Yun's small face with baby fat was now distorted with surprise. She opened her mouth wide, looking at the planet below.
The huge planet was like a person's head with the heavenly spirit cut off by a single strike. Lava rolled and boiled, like crimson brain matter.
Can a human really do this?
Gu Zi Yun subconsciously looked at the Eight-faced Han Sword in her hand. She looked up at Tang Song's casual profile, and a trace of fanaticism flashed in her eyes. This great power, as long as she follows the man before her, she will definitely be able to possess it too!
The Golden Armored Corpse King circling in the sky above Anteverse Planet was at this moment truly like a zombie seeing brain matter. Its entire body was wrapped in thick black energy, flying towards Anteverse Planet's Earth Crust.
Submerged into the earth crust lava, the Golden Armored Corpse King broke through the rolling Lava Layer, continuously moving downwards. During this time, the thermal energy of the earth crust lava turned into extremely fine lines of fire, continuously swallowed into its mouth.
The temperature of the entire Anteverse Planet surface was rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye. Oceans were frozen, and large areas of the surface were also covered with thick Ice Layers.
Along with devouring this planet's lava poison fire, countless talismans, countless streaks of fireworks and colorful light flashed quickly within this Golden Armored Corpse King's body. Countless layers of restriction formations were released from the Yin-Yang Auspicious Cloud above Tang Song's head, integrating into the Golden Armored Corpse King's body.
In the cold Outer Space, a Black Order warship was anchored not far from Anteverse Planet.
At this moment, the hearts of Corvus Glaive and others who were being hosted by the Precursor Race on the Spaceship after returning from hunting gradually sank like Anteverse Planet, becoming extremely cold.
Cutting off a Habitable Planet with one strike, this kind of strength... Does the Cosmic Overlord Thanos, whom they serve, possess such strength?
"How could the Precursor Race provoke such a powerful enemy!"
Even a strong person like Corvus Glaive, who has killed countless beings, felt somewhat dry-mouthed at the scene before his eyes.
The Archbishop of the Black Order looked through the porthole on the Spaceship. His modified mechanical eye looked at the figure under the starry sky in the Distance. His cold metallic voice also hesitated slightly:
"It seems to be a person from that Blue Planet. The species match rate with the image data sent back by the Chitauri reaches 89%."
Corvus Glaive's gaze condensed. "The Guardian of Earth? Didn't the great Thanos say that the Guardian of Earth is already dead? Could it be a new Guardian!"
The mechanical eye under the black robe flashed red light: "Looks like the Precursor Race's war beast invasion failed, and this Guardian came knocking!"
"Corvus Glaive! Our fleet is only three Wormhole jumps away from here! Perhaps we can encircle and annihilate this Planet Guardian here!"
Corvus Glaive looked at the Archbishop of the Black Order, then looked at Black Dwarf who proposed this opinion. A trace of unnoticed coldness flashed in his eyes.
"The great Thanos's order to us is to find the Infinity Stones. A new Guardian has appeared on Earth. I need to first report this information to Lord Thanos. The great Thanos is on his way. We will report the situation to him, and let him decide!"
Corvus Glaive was bloodthirsty by nature and chose to serve Thanos for the sake of conquering everywhere, but as for how loyal he was to Thanos, that was not necessarily the case.
In a certain parallel universe, when Corvus Glaive followed Thanos to invade Earth, Thanos disappeared. He betrayed Thanos and declared himself king, and was later killed by the returning Thanos after his war blade was broken.
Facing an existence with planet-busting power, one that seemed completely not inferior to Thanos, the Cosmic Overlord, Corvus Glaive's bit of loyalty to Thanos was not enough to make him rush forward and risk his life.
Just as Corvus Glaive picked up the communicator to report the news of the appearance of this new earth guardian to Thanos, a fleet that arrived in a hurry attracted his attention. That was a Precursor fleet arriving from a nearby planet.
Tang Song raised his head, obviously also noticing this fleet approaching in Outer Space.
He looked at the Golden Armored Corpse King who was absorbing the lava earth fire within the planet, shook his head and said, "Good friends have arrived. Your speed of absorbing lava poison fire is indeed a bit slow. Looks like I still need to help you out!"
As a body-protecting armored corpse personally refined by Tang Song, the Golden Armored Corpse King felt Tang Song's intention. A wisp of wronged divine sense entered Tang Song's Sea of Consciousness.
