Chapter 160 Supernova Flare

"This is a gift from that esteemed person."

Shalltear forced a bright smile onto her blood-stained face.

"Gift?"

Momonga's alarm bells rang loudly; a strong sense of foreboding gripped him. He stared intently at the strange purple iron ball on the ground and immediately shouted fiercely at the surrounding guardians, "Get closer to me!"

Sebastian, Albedo, and the others did not hesitate and quickly moved closer to him.

Buzz————————

In mid-air, the light and shadow of a magical portal had just appeared when it twisted and dissipated, turning into countless scattered magical particles.

The necromantic flames in Ainz's eyes flickered violently, and he turned sharply towards Shalltear, his anger almost bursting forth.

The only beings on the scene capable of interfering with spatial magic, besides Mare, are Shalltear—the answer is self-evident!

"Lord Ainz, please accept that person's gift."

Shalltear burst into maniacal laughter.

Forced Calmness activated several times in an instant, and Ainz Ooal Gown coldly stared at everything, his arm raised high above his head. In an instant, huge blue magic circles unfolded layer upon layer above him, soaring into the sky.

Super-tier magic: Skyfall.

He abandoned the idea of ​​extracting information, believing that the truth would come to light once Shalltear was resurrected.

However, it was all too late.

On the ground, the purple iron ball suddenly burst forth with a dazzling purple light!

This sudden change instantly attracted the attention of everyone, including Ainz Ooal Gown, Shalltear, Sebastian, and Albedo.

The purple light surged to its peak in an instant, as if it would devour the heavens and earth. But in the next second, all the light suddenly went out without warning.

It’s over! "

The flying squirrel instantly realized something. Before his transmigration, he found himself in a highly advanced future world. Even with his experience as an ordinary person, he clearly understood what this scene meant: the world was about to usher in "peace"—

next second.

An endless torrent of purple light swept out, instantly engulfing Momonga, Albedo, and the others. There was no struggle, no resistance, not even a moment to feel pain—

At this moment, the sky was forcibly torn apart! A huge purple sun rose again from the heart of the capital, dispelling the boundless darkness while bringing endless panic.

The purple energy wave, like a thousand-meter-high apocalyptic tsunami, surged in all directions at a terrifying speed of hundreds of meters per second, mercilessly devouring everything in its path.

The sweeping process was suffocatingly silent—there were no deafening explosions, no earth-shaking tremors, and no devastating shockwaves. Only a deathly stillness of annihilation.

Whether it was fleeing crowds, sturdy buildings, heavy rocks, or resilient steel—everything that came into contact with this purple wave turned to ashes and vanished completely the instant it touched them.

It wasn't until it expanded to a radius of 1500 meters that this terrifying purple sun finally stabilized and stopped spreading.

Those who managed to escape the blast radius stared in stunned silence at the purple celestial body so close at hand, their extreme fear clearly etched on their faces.

They couldn't comprehend what had happened, nor could they find any words to describe this apocalyptic scene. In their limited understanding, the only explanation they could think of was divine punishment.

The members of the Blue Rose were even more shocked and despairing than the average person. It was precisely because they possessed extraordinary power that they could better understand how terrifying and irresistible the scene before them was.

They couldn't fathom what kind of being could wield such world-destroying power. Did gods truly exist in this world?

However, what they didn't know was that the instigator of this "divine punishment" was also stunned by the scene he had caused.

Standing atop the castle, Fang Yu witnessed the entire process of the "supernova flare" eruption.

Although the item description clearly described the bomb's power, the shock he felt upon witnessing this earth-shattering spectacle was still immense—it was remarkably similar to watching a nuclear explosion up close.

What's even more chilling is that supernova flares don't produce deadly nuclear radiation or sweeping shockwaves. Aside from the visually devastating impact of engulfing everything, the entire eruption is eerily quiet.

Everything seemed as if witnessing the silent birth of a devastating sun before one's eyes.

To be honest, Fang Yu initially felt that the detonation might not be successful.

After Shalltear was dragged into the Shanhe Sheji Tu (a mythical map of mountains and rivers), his connection with the "supernova flare" was abruptly severed.

Under normal circumstances, he can clearly sense the location of a bomb within a six-kilometer radius and detonate it at any time.

However, although the coordinates of the alternate dimension connected by the Map of Mountains and Rivers are still on the battlefield, the actual distance is far more than six kilometers.

It's like a red dot on a radar, flashing one second and then suddenly disappearing the next.

Fang Yu speculated that this distance might be infinite. More importantly, real-world attack methods would likely be completely ineffective against targets in another dimension, unless equivalent spatial abilities were employed.

The reason he entrusted this deadly bomb to Shalltear was because this bold and risky plan was only truly put into practice after he observed that Ainz had gathered all the Guardians in the capital.

Given that Ainz Ooal Gown and his guardians are mostly proficient in teleportation magic, Shalltear's spatial restriction magic became the key to the success or failure of the plan, ensuring that the supernova flare would not just be a "noise".

With a destructive radius of up to 1500 meters and a detonation time difference of less than two seconds, even those with flight and acceleration magic would find it almost impossible to escape in such a short time.

As for throwing with bare hands? Fang Yu didn't even expect to escape danger that way. Even with all the temporary attribute bonuses from his equipment activated, his maximum throwing distance was only about one kilometer—still within the core kill zone of the explosion.

Even if he could throw 1200 meters, he would have a hard time running out of that crucial 300 meters in a second or two.

Therefore, the only strategy is to pre-position the bombs precisely in locations far from oneself yet perfectly covering the enemy's core. However, this requires extremely stringent conditions to simultaneously satisfy the requirements of "self-safety" and "target hit." It is precisely for this reason that Shalltear becomes the most crucial and also the most dangerous piece in the entire plan.

As a precaution, Fang Yu also covered the surface of the supernova flare with a layer of nano-metal to prevent anyone from discovering its true appearance.

Otherwise, even a fool would know that this thing might be a bomb. Moreover, Flying Squirrel is a cyberpunk from the modern world who has traveled here, and his understanding of bombs far surpasses that of the natives of this world.

The numerous notifications from the park clearly signaled the plan's success.
