Seconds ago,
Instructor Fang was assigning tasks.
"The six-star catastrophic-level aberrant fiend, Disaster Giant Fiend, will be dealt with by you, An Jianyou."
"Got it~!"
He paused and then said, "There are extraterrestrial beings watching this place. Handle the situation as you see fit."
He then looked at Xing Jinglei, "The mountain giant beast is thick-skinned and tough, but it's countered by your awakened ability. You will deal with this one. If you can free up your hands, kill more Disaster-level aberrant fiends, or handle the other Hell-level aberrant fiends."
"Leave it to this great... ahem, instructor, rest assured, it's all up to Xiao Xing."
Fang You was confident in Xing Jinglei's combat power.
"We cannot let that Disaster Giant Fiend get close to the defense line. With the mountain giant beast blocking, it will be difficult for the giant cannons and the Tower of Wood to attack the Disaster-level aberrant fiends hidden behind it. These will all depend on you to deal with."
He looked at the few people in front of him and continued to assign positions.
"It's you, Yiluoxi."
"You will team up with An Jianyou to deal with the low to mid-tier mobs."
Upon hearing the order, Yiluoxi pouted. She really wanted to say, why should she have to deal with the mobs? She also wanted to hold up the Dawn Base City with one hand and be invincible in the world!
But looking at the instructor's eyes...
"Alright, alright."
"Let me burn all these monsters!"
...
The catastrophe descended.
A dark domain spread out, and a deep blue ritual diagram outlined a massive formation within it, connecting the sky and the earth. An oppressive, ominous, and terrifying aura emanated.
A light blue giant hand emerged from the profound formation.
The next moment, it tore through the dark shadows and stepped onto the earth.
Boom—!!
As if the sky was collapsing and the earth was splitting.
Accompanied by a deafening roar, a terrifying colossal creature, three hundred meters tall, appeared before everyone.
It had a humanoid body, with extremely thick arms and legs, as if clad in thick stone armor, crisscrossed with light blue patterns.
The upper part of its torso was hollow, like a furnace, burning with rolling azure flames that continuously surged upwards, coalescing into a ferocious and terrifying face.
It descended with a roar!
It swung a fist, shattering the crimson light beam that shot from afar, and rolling shockwaves spread outwards.
The wind howled, blowing across faces filled with shock and bewilderment.
"What is this?"
"Another catastrophic-level aberrant fiend?!"
"I learned this in class. This is the catastrophic-level aberrant fiend 'Furnace Golem'! It seems to have been summoned by Miss An..."
"That gentle and frail Miss An is so unfathomably deep?"
"More than unfathomably deep, it's terrifying!"
"Hiss—!!"
Staring at the light blue giant statue, Meidisha felt as if her throat was being choked.
Mentally and physically.
Her eyes bulged, her disbelief turning to madness.
"This, this is..."
"She controlled a catastrophic-level entity?!"
...
"This is impossible!!"
Yan Xiao couldn't believe it. His already shattered worldview was now thrown to the ground, utterly crushed, and then repeatedly ground into dust.
His eyes reflected the sapphire giant statue, his throat so dry he could barely speak.
In a remote corner of the Sunset Country, a messenger from the White Tower let out a cry of surprise.
"A Blue Star powerhouse controlling a catastrophic-level aberrant fiend?!"
"Using a special ritual as a foundation, paying a huge price to control this Furnace Golem... this... this is also impossible!!"
The White Tower messenger's eyes widened, trying to peer and observe the Furnace Golem, and the slender figure standing on the Hundred-Eyed Flying Bird not far from the Golem.
Fortunately, the awakened one he had planted with the White Tower's Eye was also watching at this moment, not blinking.
He seized the opportunity to observe, not daring to miss it.
Suddenly,
The vision went dark, and the connection was severed.
The White Tower messenger froze, then looked down at the imprints of the secret technique's operation. He found that they had dimmed and turned to ash.
His White Tower's Eye secret technique, after intermittent use, had finally given out... it was exhausted.
At this critical juncture.
He froze, he raged.
A shrill wail erupted from the small house in the remote corner of the Sunset Country, as if it had been violated by thousands of aberrant fiends.
...
The Disaster Giant Fiend, as colossal as a floating island, had stopped its flight.
Its many eyes fixed on the giant figure that had appeared in the distance.
The Furnace Golem!
Its size was still significantly smaller than the Disaster Giant Fiend, only a few segments taller than the mountain giant beast. However, the terrifying, suffocating aura that emanated from it was no less than that of the Disaster Giant Fiend.
Without a doubt, this was a colossal entity of the same level!
"That Miss An not only possesses the ability to control aberrant fiends, but she also, through some secret technique or ritual, forcibly manipulated a catastrophic-level entity!"
Meidisha's eyes were wide open, muttering to herself.
The envoys from the Scorching Flame Great Oasis and the now-disconnected White Tower messenger also fully understood after witnessing this scene.
They understood the Blue Star's foundation!
The giant cannon that blew through the tide with a single shot,
The wooden buds that could kill Disaster-level aberrant fiends,
The giant wall of vines and wood that blocked the surging tide, and the numerous powerful non-human realm powerhouses.
These, which they thought were their trump cards, were, from beginning to end, merely the Blue Star's conventional means.
The Furnace Golem before them was the real trump card! The girl controlling the Golem was the true number one of the Blue Star, the ultimate trump card!
Their imagination was too limited!
In the distance,
A figure clad in dark armor, with a single horn on its head, hiding within the tide of aberrant fiends, was also greatly surprised.
"This Blue Star can actually command a catastrophic-level aberrant fiend?!"
Who was the Lord's believer!
The minion was enraged.
Aberrant fiends were a gift from the Lord to them, his believers. How could they fall into human hands? His eyes were filled with fury as he stared intently at the human girl standing on the Hundred-Eyed Flying Fish... another aberrant fiend controlled by humans.
This woman must die!
His killing intent was palpable, but he did not forget his ancestor's mission. He weighed in his mind whether he could seize the opportunity to instantly kill the human girl once the Disaster Giant Fiend and the Furnace Golem were locked in combat.
He believed he could!
The Blue Star was a newly formed world; the limit was the Non-Human realm! Moreover, forcibly manipulating a catastrophic-level aberrant fiend would surely come at a great cost to the human, perhaps even suffering a backlash at this very moment.
And he, a believer of the Lord, a great imperial general, was a veteran Throne-level powerhouse.
Not to mention dealing with a mere Non-Human, he was confident in defeating those cowardly oasis dwellers who were also Throne-level.
The plan was set!
The minion was about to command the Disaster Giant Fiend when he suddenly stopped, knelt on one knee, and lowered his head in a respectful manner.
"Yes, yes."
"But..."
"Yes, your subordinate understands."
Only after the divine voice faded did he slowly rise.
Although he still didn't fully understand, his ancestor's command must have its reasons. He was merely not of a high enough realm to comprehend it fully; he would just follow it.
The armored figure stared at the slender figure in the distance, let out a cold snort,
"This time, I will spare your life for now."
He leaped from a Disaster-level aberrant fiend, gave his final orders to the surrounding aberrant fiends, and vanished in an instant.
...
...
"Just now, I felt a gaze filled with intense malice."
An Jianyou frowned slightly, looking into the distance.
But she saw nothing.
That malicious gaze quickly disappeared. She refocused her attention on the battle before her, only to see the eyes of the Disaster Giant Fiend in the distance begin to turn. It was no longer focused on the Furnace Golem.
Instead, it was fixed on the defense line, the most densely populated area in the middle section.
It flapped its wings and took to the sky, suddenly accelerating. It bypassed the mountain giant beast, evaded the Golem blocking its path, and veered diagonally towards the defense line.
"It's coming!!!"
The overwhelming fear and rational shock made many faces turn pale, and despite gritting their teeth, they couldn't help but let out hushed cries.
Meidisha and Yan Xiao, the two envoys from the Great Oasis, were also the same.
However, they now saw hope.
Could the Furnace Golem block the Disaster Giant Fiend?
Block it, it certainly could. Both were catastrophic-level aberrant fiends. Even with differences in strength, it would be difficult to determine a winner in a short time. Especially with the formidable life force of catastrophic-level aberrant fiends, it was not impossible for them to fight for a day and a night, or even three days and three nights.
Now, the only concern was...
How long could Miss An's control over the Furnace Golem last?
And, could it stop that flying Disaster Giant Fiend?
The terror of the Disaster Giant Fiend had fully erupted. The tentacle-like streamers floating on it began to gather crimson light particles.
More and more closed eyes on its body opened.
Thick black fog swirled around it, making it even more terrifying and horrifying.
Fierce winds raged, lightning flashed, and even the surrounding space trembled slightly.
And at this moment,
"Construct a giant wall to resist the shockwaves."
Meidisha heard a voice.
The three non-human entities joined forces once more. She even saw a fourth plant-type non-human this time, but her attention was not on that. Her eyes remained fixed on the Golem.
Black fog also appeared on the Furnace Golem.
Thick black fog continuously billowed out like smoke and clouds, enveloping the Golem's body. In a flash, the already terrifying Golem, three hundred meters tall, inexplicably grew larger.
One circle! Two circles! Three circles!
From a colossal three hundred meters, it continued to surge upwards, reaching a height of five hundred meters!
A terrifying aura, like that of a god or demon, stirred up waves of wind like tsunamis. The azure flames within the furnace surged, engulfing the colossal body. Azure and darkness intertwined and rose together. With a powerful stomp of the Furnace Golem, the earth caved in violently, and earth and stones rolled outwards like waves.
Simultaneously, its sky-obscuring, five-hundred-meter-tall body soared into the air.
With a speed that defied its size, it leaped towards the Disaster Giant Fiend, extending its enormous, solid hand, and grabbed the Disaster Giant Fiend's wing.
Azure flames erupted.
With a violent pull and a hug, its massive body tightly clasped the Disaster Giant Fiend, which was now roughly its own size, its solid arms tightening.
The Giant Fiend below, the Golem above.
Clutched together, they plummeted towards the earth like a comet crashing into a planet.
"Holy sh*t sh*t sh*t sh*t—!"
Watching the descending colossal shadow, the defenders watched in stunned silence, quickly scrambling for cover.
The meteor, enveloped in azure flames, fell.
The Disaster Giant Fiend struggled incessantly, but still could not break free from the Golem's binding. Driven by the furnace's azure flames, its descent accelerated, gradually heading towards the area where the high-level aberrant fiends were densely gathered.
A violent collision.
Rumble—!!!
Accompanied by a deafening roar, almost like the sky collapsing, the earth shook violently. In the distant Water Marsh Base City, the windows of buildings shattered with a "crash," and walls cracked.
A terrifying shockwave, carrying debris of earth, stones, trees, and buildings, swept outwards like a monstrous wave, continuously battering the newly repaired vine wall.
Tearing and falling apart.
At the core of the impact, azure flames surged, illuminating the dark sky. The dark clouds and gray mist drifting from afar were instantly shattered by this force. Even space cracked and split, revealing cracks like those on broken glass.
The roars of the aberrant fiends were completely drowned out.
The earth-shattering roar made everyone's ears ring, their minds dizzy, and their hearts nearly stop.
Only stunned and petrified figures remained, staring blankly into the distance, as if turned to stone.
