Chapter 142 Thunderous Appearance, Furious and Ferocious! (Chapter 45 of 2 words, please vote!)

The words have not yet been spoken!

Boom——!
Fang Qingyu's figure transformed into a bolt of lightning that tore through the darkness, crashing violently into the soil above.

The dark black dragon and tiger energy surged to its peak in an instant, covering his entire body like black jade lava!

Immediately afterwards, a burst of deep, liquid black flames, seemingly capable of devouring all light, erupted and soared into the sky! The raging black flames twisted and rose, with subtle yet dazzling golden patterns spreading and entwining wildly across their surface!
"Follow!"

The hard soil layer and the swarm of insects covering it were torn apart and blasted away by the violent force as if they were made of paper! Fragments of rocks and soil mixed with broken insect shells and foul-smelling juices splattered everywhere!

The terrifying hissing and clicking sounds from the outside instantly flooded in, like a devastating wave of death!

"Roar--!"

Fang Qingyu broke through the blockade and stood on the ruins.

Black flames swirled around it, and golden patterns shimmered, like a demon god returning from hell!
The Dragon Sparrow Blade emitted an excited buzz as its blade was instantly engulfed by surging black flames, and a dazzling dark golden light condensed at the edge!
"Return to silence!!"

A flash of light! A jet-black lightning bolt, condensed with domineering dark energy and destructive liquid black flames, slashed out fiercely! Wherever the blade passed, space seemed to be cut open with subtle ripples!
boom--! ! !
The swarming front of the insect swarm, a thick wall composed of dozens of bladed cutters and acid-corroding beetles, was instantly annihilated as if it had been thrown into the core of the sun!

The violent aftershocks of the blade energy spread out in a fan shape, violently blasting and tearing apart the swarm of insects further behind! It forcefully plowed out a short passage several meters wide, burning with black flames, in the black torrent of death!

"Walk!!"

Qin Hui and Lao Qiao roared like two enraged bulls!

The two men, one on each side, supported the severely injured Liu Zheng! Qi Hao and Lü Chen each helped up the other two almost exhausted members of the Beacon Fire Squad! Jiang Wei's small figure was protected at the very center, her eyes calm as still water!
The squad sped off like arrows, desperately rushing along the path Fang Qingyu had cut open!

"Hiss hiss hiss—!!!"

The swarm of insects was utterly enraged by this violent provocation! Their shrieks, sharper and more intense, resounded through the sky!

From all directions, like a black tsunami, more insects surged forth from the gaps in containers, the depths of ruins, and even the half-submerged ship's hold! Acid rained down like a storm! Blade-like legs sliced ​​through the air! Sonic boom flies unleashed ear-piercing sonic waves of death!

Fang Qingyu stood at the forefront of the group like a black reef, his Dragon Sparrow Slash transforming into the scythe of death!

"Awe-inspiring!" "Exterminate Calamity!" "Extinction!"

The perfect Thunderstrike Eight Cuts technique was executed to its fullest extent!

Each strike carries an overwhelming power and destructive black flames!

Wherever the blade flashed, the swarm of insects fell, shattered, and annihilated like waves of wheat!

At this point, the integrity of the entity is no longer a concern.

Breaking out is the most important thing!
Fang Qingyu, alone with his sword, carved a bloody path through the endless swarm of insects, creating a narrow space for his teammates to survive!

However, the swarms of insects are endless! They are fearless and relentless, advancing wave after wave!

No matter how fast or powerful Fang Qingyu's blade was, he couldn't clear all directions in an instant! What's even more disgusting is that those acid beetles and sonic boom mosquitoes with ranged attack capabilities were hiding behind the swarm, splashing deadly acid and stun sonic waves at the core of the team from afar!
Chi Chi Chi -!
Several streams of pale green acid flew over Fang Qingyu's defenses and shot straight at Qi Hao and Lü Chen, who were supporting the wounded!

"Watch out!" Qin Hui's eyes widened in horror as he tried to rescue them, but he was entangled by several burrowing worms!

At this critical moment.

"Humph!"

Jiang Wei, who had been protected in the middle, let out a soft snort tinged with anger! Her small body suddenly took a step forward!
Om-!
An invisible force field, savage, domineering, and carrying the will to burn everything, suddenly erupted from her center! Orange-red flames expanded instantly, like a scorching barrier that distorted the air!

Chi chi chi——! ! !
The incoming acid, upon contact with the invisible heat wave, emitted a violent boiling sound, rapidly charring and evaporating into pungent white smoke! Several swarming sonic boom mosquitoes, as if crashing into an invisible wall of fire, had their wings instantly charred and curled, falling with mournful cries!

Jiang Wei's face turned pale instantly, and her body swayed slightly, clearly indicating that the large-scale defense had taken a toll on her.

"Hold on, Sister Jiang!" Old Qiao roared, smashing a saber-footed worm that was trying to sneak up on him with a punch.

But the insect swarm's attack became increasingly ferocious!

They seemed to be enraged by Jiang Wei's fire field, and more ranged attacks and fearless melee swarms attacked from all sorts of tricky angles!

Jiang Wei's force field fluctuated violently, its range was forced to shrink, and her face became increasingly pale.

"This can't go on! Sister Jiang can't hold on much longer!" Qi Hao's voice trembled with anxiety as he looked at Jiang Wei's condition.

Qin Hui and Lao Qiao also suffered new injuries, and their speed was inevitably slowed down as they carried the wounded. They were about to be surrounded again by the surging swarm of insects!
Fang Qingyu cleaved three blade-footed insects that pounced on him with a single slash. His gaze swept over Jiang Wei's pale face and the increasingly frenzied swarm of insects around them. He then glanced at the Dragon Sparrow Slayer in his hand, which was buzzing incessantly, as if it were yearning for something.

A resolute realization flashed deep in his eyes.

"Everyone! Move closer to me! Stick close behind me!"

Fang Qingyu's roar, like a thunderclap, drowned out the screech of the insects, "Little Jiang! Hold back! Protect them! Leave the rest to me!!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wei did not hesitate at all and instantly withdrew the scorching force field. Her small body staggered, but was caught by the quick-thinking Lü Chen.

Qin Hui, Lao Qiao, Qi Hao, Lü Chen, and the wounded members of the Beacon Fire Squad immediately felt as if they had found their backbone, and with all their might, they huddled behind Fang Qingyu, forming a tight circle.

Without Jiang Wei's protection, the insect swarm's attack was like a black raging tide, instantly engulfing the space where everyone had just stood, and rushing in from all directions!
Sharp mouthparts, gleaming blades, spraying acid, and piercing sound waves—the shadow of death instantly descended!
In that moment of despair!

Fang Qingyu made a move that surprised everyone.

He suddenly raised the Dragon Sparrow Blade high in his hand! The liquid black flames wrapped around the blade rose and roared violently as if they were alive!
The blade pointed directly at the dark sky obscured by the force field dome and the murky clouds!
"Dragon Sparrow—!!" Fang Qingyu's voice carried a peculiar rhythm, as if calling out, or as if commanding!
Om-! ! !
The mysterious lightning patterns on the Dragon Sparrow Slaying Blade suddenly lit up!
This time, what lit up was not golden patterns, but blindingly bright white lightning! An invisible, powerful suction force erupted from the blade!
On the battlefield, all the sounds of metal clashing, the clang of blades slicing through insect armor, the screeching of bladed legs scraping the ground, and even the explosive sounds of distant support squads parrying weapons—all the sounds imbued with the spirit of "golden spears"—seemed to be summoned by the highest authority at this moment!
Invisible sound waves are being frantically extracted and converged!
Transforming into countless tiny, visible silver bolts of lightning, like rivers flowing into the sea, they traversed space and surged wildly into the blade of the Dragon Sparrow Slaying Calamity!
The blade trembled violently! The buzzing sound grew louder and more urgent, as if it could no longer withstand the violent energy!

Rumble, rumble—! ! !
Outside the force field dome, the dark sky that was originally covered by murky clouds suddenly changed color!
Thick, dark thunderclouds, seemingly about to crush the earth, gathered out of thin air, churning and boiling!

Countless thick, dragon-like, blazing white lightning bolts writhed and roared wildly in the clouds! The destructive might of heaven poured down as if it were a tangible force, piercing through the force field dome and pressing down hard on the hearts of every living being!

Thunder roared from the sky! A furious, menacing aura filled the air!

"What...what is this?!" On the outskirts, the captain of the "Rock" squad, having just barely repelled a swarm of insects, suddenly looked up at the terrifying sky that had abruptly changed color, his pupils shrinking to pinpoints! The rolling thunderclouds and the destructive power they contained made his very soul tremble!
"It's Captain Fang?!" The members of the "Sharp Blade" squad exclaimed in surprise as they looked at the center of the converging lightning, which was faintly pointing towards the bow of the ship.

"He...he summoned heavenly lightning?! How is that possible?!" The captain of the "Iron Wall" squad stared in disbelief at the buzzing warhammer in his hand, which seemed to be under some kind of pull.

C7 Shipyard Area, the core battlefield!
Fang Qingyu raised the Dragon Sparrow Blade high, its tip pointing straight to the sky!
The violent power of lightning surged wildly into his body through his arm.

His muscles were bulging as if about to burst, and fine electric snakes crackled across his skin; his hair stood on end! In his eyes, jet black and blazing white intertwined, like a god who wielded destruction!
now
Fang Qingyu felt as if he had grasped the entire sky!
As the ferocious insect shadows surged in from all directions and were within arm's reach, Fang Qingyu's lips curled into an almost insane grin!

"Give it all to me"

"die!!!"

Accompanied by this roar that seemed to come from the heavens, Fang Qingyu poured all the violent energy that gathered the sounds of battle and triggered the tribulation of lightning from the nine heavens into this all-out strike!

The Dragon Sparrow Slashes Away Calamity, carrying immense thunderous force, and slashes fiercely down at the boundless swarm of insects below!

boom--! ! !
A blazing white pillar of lightning whose size cannot be described in words!

From the very center of that churning, dark thundercloud!
It pierced through the force field dome!
Absolutely precise!
It struck the tip of Long Que's raised blade!
Next!

Centered on Fang Qingyu!
The devastating, blazing white lightning formed a perfect ring!

With the overwhelming might of heaven that could annihilate everything!

Exploding with a bang!!!

Zila——! ! !
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

My vision was completely swallowed up by the endless, blazing white light.

Sound was replaced by absolute silence.

There was no earth-shattering explosion.

There was only a faint, soul-freezing "sizzling" sound, as if space itself was being torn apart, purified, and utterly annihilated!

With Fang Qingyu as the center, within a radius of nearly 100 meters!

All insect-shaped ghosts!

Whether it's a millstone-sized acid-corroding beetle, a ferocious bladed cutter, an annoying sonic boom fly, or a gigantic burrowing worm...
The instant I came into contact with that blazing white lightning!

Like ice and snow under the scorching sun! Silent and still!

Annihilation!

Not even a speck of ash remained!

The blazing white lightning ring, like the purest light of destruction, relentlessly expanded and swept outwards!
Wherever they passed, the black "earth" formed by the swarm of insects was instantly wiped away, revealing the scorched, cracked, and smoking ground below! Further away, the swarms of insects convulsed, charred, and carbonized in swathes, like ants thrown into boiling oil!
Just one blow!
Within a radius of 100 meters!

The insect swarm was completely wiped out!
Heaven and earth are cleansed!

"Uh"

Although Qin Hui, Lao Qiao, and the others were protected behind them by the power deliberately guided by Fang Qingyu, the overwhelming heavenly might that was so close at hand still made them shake their minds and their ears ring, as if they were facing the destruction at the beginning of the universe!
The wounded members of the Beacon Fire Squad had blank stares.

Fang Qingyu maintained his slashing posture, and the blazing white lightning on the Dragon Sparrow Slaying Blade slowly dimmed and finally fell silent, leaving only a faint smell of burning and wisps of smoke.

"Now! Charge out!!"

Fang Qingyu's voice was slightly hoarse.

“Charge——!!!”

Qin Hui and Lao Qiao snapped back to their senses and unleashed a deafening roar!
They hoisted up the wounded and charged desperately towards the outer perimeter along the charred and smoking death tunnel that had been plowed out by lightning!

Qi Hao and Lü Chen followed closely behind, supporting their companion!

Although Jiang Wei's face was pale, her eyes shone brightly as she looked at the tall, imposing figure in front of her.

"Look!! A passage! A passage has appeared!!"

"It's Captain Fang! They've broken through!!"

"Get backup! Get backup now!!!"

On the periphery, the members of the "Rock," "Blade," and "Iron Wall" teams, who had just recovered from the shock of the earth-shattering thunder, saw the passage that had been forcibly cleared and the figures rushing out from it! Overjoyed, they were instantly overwhelmed!

"Fire support!!"

"Block the bugs on the flanks!!"

All the peripheral team members who were still able to fight unleashed unprecedented power!
Ranged firepower rained down on the swarms of insects attempting to close in on both sides of the passage! Melee warriors roared and formed a defensive line, desperately blocking the stray insect shadows that were rushing towards them!

With Fang Qingyu covering the rear and the outer squads providing desperate support, this team, which included Fang Qingyu's squad, the remnants of the Beacon Fire unit, and some of the support members, managed to survive.

They finally broke out of the death maze made up of steel ruins and endless swarms of insects.

But escaping the core area of ​​the shipyard's steel maze does not mean that you are safe.

Fang Qingyu's devastating attack certainly cleared out the swarm of insects within a radius of 100 meters.

But on the outermost edge, the endless stream of insect-shaped life demons, like a black tide, were only briefly stunned by the majestic heavenly might for a few breaths!

Immediately afterwards, an even more frantic and piercing screech swept in like a tsunami!

"Hurry up! Don't stop!"

Fang Qingyu's voice remained calm and steady, as if he hadn't felt any burden from that last strike.

The retreat was a long and suffocating journey.

Everyone struggled to navigate the ruins of collapsed buildings and twisted vehicle wreckage along the ravaged streetscape.

Occasionally, a few insects that haven't been completely eliminated by the outer firepower would swarm out from unexpected corners, bringing new dangers and wounds.

Everyone's energy was rapidly depleting.

The exhilaration brought on by adrenaline gradually subsided, replaced by a deep-seated fatigue and pain.

I don't know how much time passed; it might have been a few minutes, or it might have been a long few hours.

As the group rounded a crossroads weighed down by a huge billboard, their view suddenly opened up.

"Look! The edge of the force field!!" Qi Hao's voice was filled with the ecstatic joy of surviving a disaster, almost cracking.

About three hundred meters ahead, the invisible barrier separating the inner and outer worlds was clearly visible under the murky sunlight, like a huge, slightly rippling transparent water curtain!

The hope of life is right in front of us!
"The last 300 meters! Sprint!!"

Fang Qingyu's voice was resolute and carried an undeniable power. The Dragon Sparrow's Calamity Slash once again erupted with dazzling black flames, forcing the wave of insects that was chasing them the closest to back several meters!

"Charge—!!"

"I'm home!!"

"Brothers in the flames of war! Hold on! We're almost there!"

Hope ignited everyone's potential! Qin Hui, Lao Qiao, and the others roared in their final moments. Even the seriously injured members of the Beacon Fire team gritted their teeth, squeezed out their last bit of strength, and stumbled towards the light screen that symbolized safety!
300 meters. 200 meters. 100 meters.
The distance is shrinking rapidly!
The unique ripples of the force field barrier, which seemed to subtly distort space, were already clearly visible!
Fang Qingyu suddenly turned around and unleashed a final slash of Calamity Ashes. The blazing black flames of the blade, like a burning city wall, temporarily blocked the insect swarm's view.

Then he growled, "Go!"

Qin Hui and Lao Qiao supported Liu Zheng, Qi Hao and Lü Chen dragged their companions, and Jiang Wei followed closely beside Fang Qingyu. Everyone used their last bit of strength to crash into the slightly undulating invisible barrier!

Om-!
It's like passing through a thick, cold film of water.

The deafening chirping and roaring of insects, the pungent stench of blood and burnt flesh, and the oppressive feeling of death that filled me with despair.
In an instant!

Completely stripped away!
Instead, there was a deafening roar.
Noisy!

The piercing sirens, the urgent shouts, the roar of vehicle engines, and even the faint sounds of normal city noise and music coming from the distant streets!
Suddenly, everything lit up!

No longer is it the murky, dark red light and the silhouette of ruins.

Instead, it was a dazzling sea of ​​light, with countless flashing and rotating police lights in red and blue, the blinding white light of temporary searchlights, and the brilliant neon lights of the city in the distance!

The air smells completely different too.

The smells of disinfectant, sweat, engine oil, and even the smoky aroma of food wafting from roadside stalls mingled together, creating a vibrant yet "ordinary" atmosphere.

Beneath our feet was a solid, smooth asphalt road, not the rubble and sticky filth of ruins.

The stark contrast left everyone who had just crawled out of hell frozen in place.

Qin Hui and Lao Qiao remained in the position of carrying people, looking up blankly at the flashing police lights and the medical staff rushing over, as if their souls had not yet returned to their places.

Qi Hao and Lü Chen, supporting their companion, were panting heavily, their eyes vacant as they stared at the neon-lit skyscrapers in the distance, their bodies trembling slightly uncontrollably.

The few survivors of the Beacon Fire Squad, including Liu Zheng who was being supported, experienced a sudden snap in their taut nerves the moment they came into contact with "normal" air and sound. Some collapsed, while others let out suppressed sobs of relief at surviving such a close call.

Jiang Wei also breathed a sigh of relief. Her face was still pale, but looking at the familiar "human" scene around her, her tense body relaxed.

Fang Qingyu, leaning on the Dragon Sparrow Slaying Blade, stood at the entrance of the force field, slightly out of breath.

The black flames on his body have now completely subsided, and the dark energy has also dissipated, leaving only his tattered and blood-stained combat uniform and his unconcealable exhaustion.

Looking at the noisy, chaotic, yet vibrant night scene before me, I glanced back at the half of the city still shrouded in the shadow of a massive, deathly dome, like a predatory beast ready to devour its prey.

The neon lights flickered on his face, which was stained with blood and soot.

Prosperity, apocalypse.
They were separated only by an invisible barrier.

Suddenly a world away.
