Alchemists do not need self-cultivation

However, it was all in vain.

These powerful weapons on the battlefield lost their ability when faced with a humanoid monster only the size of a person.

Bullets and missiles stopped right in front of the humanoid monster, while the beams of light emitted by the energy weapons were strangely deflected, all turning into incredible arcs and bypassing the humanoid monster.

The humanoid monster looked at the bullets and missiles stopped in front of it, and reached out to gently touch one of the bullets.

The metal bullet twisted and deformed like liquid, then transformed into a budding rose, the flower slowly blooming.

The moment the flower bloomed, a bee flew out and then landed on the humanoid monster's fingertip, fluttering its wings.

Seeing this scene, the pilots observing from KMF felt their scalps tingle.

They had no choice but to keep firing.

However, when they attacked again, everything changed.

Instead of bullets, missiles, or energy beams, their weapons spewed out flowers.

In an instant, the entire island was covered with countless flowers.

In the middle of a beautiful sea of ​​flowers, a hideous humanoid monster stands there, the scene extremely discordant yet possessing a strange beauty.

Chapter 1642: Divine Power

Needless to say, the Britannian Empire's vanguard was completely annihilated in this battle on the island.

With all weapons rendered ineffective, the advanced KMFs were as fragile as toys in the face of this humanoid monster.

What's even more terrifying is that the monster never touched them from beginning to end; it simply stood there and waved its hand, and they were completely defeated.

Even until the end of the battle, those people didn't know what method the monster had used; its abilities were simply incomprehensible.

However, these KMFs captured footage with cameras before disappearing and transmitted it back in real time.

The military of the Britannian Empire has also received the news.

The sight of bullets and missiles suspended in mid-air, charged particle cannons twisted and refracted to bring metal objects to life, filled the Britannian Empire's high command with deep dread.

"Where did this monster come from?"

"Are they the remaining monsters from before?"

"No, it's obviously from outer space."

Where it came from is not important at all! What's important is how to deal with it!

The meeting room was in an uproar. Faced with the sudden and insurmountable monster, they couldn't think of any solutions for the time being.

Schneizel pondered for a moment, then said, "Send the video to all the countries. There is no doubt that this monster poses a great threat to humanity. We must unite all available forces to eliminate it."

At this point, Schneizel rubbed his temples.

Even the former prince, who always remained calm in the face of imminent disaster, was now feeling exhausted.

Since the monster plague began, humanity has experienced far too many calamities.

We haven't even had a few days to recover, and this kind of thing has happened again.

--------------

The video quickly spread to several other countries.

Seeing the unpredictable abilities of the humanoid monster in the video, people from other countries also felt a sense of unease.

But even if you don't know what to do, you must eliminate that monster.

So, in an extremely rare occurrence, all the countries in the world temporarily put aside their past grievances and began to gather together to discuss how to eliminate that monster.

Meanwhile, Isaac also received the video of the battle.

Isaac and Sumire Muroto were amazed by the monster's methods in the video.

"Right now... he should be in the third stage of evolution."

Sumire Muroto stared at the humanoid monster on the screen, her heart filled with mixed emotions.

"The abilities he has displayed... are simply divine."

"Ah."

Isaac nodded slightly.

"Manipulating gravity, distorting space, rewriting matter, and freely transforming life and non-life are just the tip of the iceberg of his abilities."

"...What exactly did he do on the moon to turn him into this?"

"I asked Sumire Muroto."

She felt that the humanoid monster in the video possessed abilities that were definitely related to the transmutation circle that the other party had activated on the moon.

"That was the final step for him into a new phase."

Isaac explained.

"Actually... there are two transmutation arrays in total. What the satellite photographed was only the near side of the moon."

As he spoke, he briefly recalled the enormous transmutation circle he had seen after arranging the photos earlier.

"The positive transmutation array manipulates the charge reversal of quarks and leptons to transmute half of the moon into antimatter, and then allows the matter and antimatter to come into contact and annihilate each other."

After a pause, Isaac continued.

"The energy generated in an instant is roughly equivalent to the total amount of radiation released by 1.3 million suns in their lifetime."

"Hiss... If this isn't handled properly, the Earth might just disappear."

"Ha, this is nothing."

Isaac chuckled softly.

"Although the energy is enormous, it is merely the preliminary energy he uses to communicate the truth. The truly powerful thing... is the transmutation circle on the far side of the moon that we cannot observe."

Gurgle.

Even Sumire Muroto couldn't help but swallow hard at that moment.

"The back is..."

You should know about 'vacuum decay', right?

"know."

The so-called 'vacuum decay' means that, according to quantum field theory, the vacuum is not 'empty' but rather a ground state filled with quantum fluctuations, which is the lowest energy state. Some theories suggest that the vacuum of the current universe may only be a 'metastable state,' that is, a local lowest energy state, rather than a true global lowest energy state.

This is what is known as 'vacuum is not empty'.

Vacuum is a metastable state that can be triggered by quantum tunneling to a lower energy phase transition. This phase transition propagates in the form of a 'vacuum bubble' that expands at the speed of light, destroying all matter.

"Wait, you mean..."

Just as you guessed.

Isaac smiled.

"The transmutation array constructed using an entire moon was used to reconstruct the Higgs potential energy, artificially creating a potential energy depression so that the region would be the first to fall into a lower energy state."

Upon hearing this, Sumire Muroto broke out in a cold sweat.

"So, we almost encountered vacuum decay? That kind of irreversible cosmic-level catastrophe?"

"Calm down. The universe is expanding at the speed of light. Even if vacuum decay occurs, it won't destroy the universe."

"But that's on the moon. Vacuum decay happened there, and the entire solar system was wiped out!"

Sumire Muroto spoke excitedly, then suddenly remembered something.

"Wait a minute, vacuum decay is terrifying, but it shouldn't have energy in the traditional sense, right?"

"That's true."

Isaac nodded.

"But don't forget that when annihilation occurs, he has already used that energy to become a truth-like existence. In the subsequent vacuum decay, he will use topological defects to bind the phase transition bubble and then convert the potential energy difference into electromagnetic radiation, thereby obtaining almost infinite energy."

"...Just tell me how strong he is now, okay?"

"What I can tell you is that once this phase is over, the energy he releases in a single burst could evaporate the Milky Way."

"..."

Sumire Muroto stared at Isaac in front of her for a long time, then looked at the monster on the screen.

"Come on, Isaac, tell me, are you sure you can defeat this being?"

"We will win."

"What you've said makes me even more uncertain."

Sumire Muroto scratched her hair in frustration.

"Forget it, even if we can't win, at least we can escape back to our original world."

“Indeed, so I sent Violet back first.”

"You heartless bastard, all you think about is Violet, huh? What about me? Why didn't you send me back?"

"I just wanted to show you what you've actually created."

"Even if I created it, it still used your and Violet's genes... Violet's genes make up the majority."

Sumire Muroto slumped in her office chair, looking utterly dejected.

"Forget it, let it be destroyed. I don't want to deal with it anymore."

Chapter 1643: Tragic Scene

After the news of the humanoid monster was sent out, troops around the world were quickly mobilized.

The Britannian Empire dispatched the most personnel. As for the EU, Sousuke Sagara, having already learned of the situation, did not want to send IW people to their deaths. As for the Federation, after assessment, they symbolically sent a few people, namely the eunuch faction that had been ousted.

In addition, some small countries also sent troops, including the Kingdom of Kyrgyzstan, known as the "Kingdom of Warriors".

Countless large aircraft and floating KMFs filled the sky as they headed toward the island within the territory of the Britannian Empire.

Initially, all countries launched intercontinental ballistic missiles toward that island.

However, the densely packed missiles were frozen in time just before they were about to hit the ground, and then began to twist and decompose, turning into a bunch of fish that fell into the sea and swam away.
