Ryuichi Kurosaki manipulated a large number of metal fragments to form a metal barrier in front of him.
He kept swinging his metal blade to kill the charging minions, but there were just too many of the water-attribute Unknowns.
A giant squid spewed out black ink, which landed on the metal barrier and instantly corroded holes in it.
The water angel remained suspended in mid-air, coldly observing everything.
She didn't lift a finger from beginning to end. Her subordinates and henchmen alone were enough to crush these humans.
As Kurosaki watched the superpowered individuals around him fall one by one, his despair grew stronger.
His prized New Human Alliance, the thousands of fighters he had painstakingly gathered, was dwindling at a visible rate. In just twenty minutes, the alliance's superhumans were reduced to less than a thousand.
Everyone was covered in wounds, and morale had completely collapsed.
Some people started to flee, but were caught up by the water-attribute Unknown and instantly killed.
"No retreat! Anyone who retreats will be killed!"
Kurosaki roared, manipulating the metal blade to slay a fleeing superhuman. But his roar had no effect. Despair, like a plague, spread through the crowd.
Another ten minutes passed.
The last superhuman was crushed by the tentacles of the Octopus Master.
On the battlefield, only Ryuichi Kurosaki remained.
He was covered in blood, with wounds all over his chest, arms, and legs.
The power to manipulate metal was almost exhausted.
Thousands of superpowered individuals were wiped out.
The New Human Alliance was utterly destroyed.
Kurosaki Ryuichi knelt on the ground, looking at the densely packed water-attribute Unknowns before him, his eyes filled with resentment and despair.
His ambition, his empire, everything he had, vanished in an instant.
"No... I'm not reconciled!"
Kurosaki roared, using his last bit of strength to manipulate all the remaining metal on the ground.
The metal fragments coalesced, forming a massive metal shield that enveloped him.
"I cannot die! I haven't ruled the world yet!"
He exerted his strength, and the metal shield exploded, sending a large number of metal fragments flying in all directions, forcing back the approaching minions.
Taking advantage of this brief moment, Kurosaki turned around and, with all his might, fled towards the distant ruins.
Water Angel lowered her head and glanced at the fleeing Kurosaki, her eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.
She disdained to pursue such a stray dog. In her view, Kurosaki's life or death was meaningless.
"Cleanse all unclean forces."
As the Water Angel's voice faded, her Water-attribute Unknown began cleaning up the remaining energy traces on the battlefield.
Kurosaki, however, ran with all his might. His wounds bled continuously, and his vision grew increasingly blurry.
The power to manipulate metal was completely exhausted, making it difficult even to stand.
He dared not linger, dared not look back. The battlefield behind him was like a living hell. The alliance he had been so proud of had vanished completely.
He went from being the leader of thousands of superpowered individuals to a lone, wounded, and utterly defeated man.
After running for an unknown amount of time, Kurosaki finally collapsed amidst the ruins.
He was covered in blood, his breath was weak, and his consciousness was gradually fading.
Meanwhile, on the battlefield in Ginza, the Water Angel hovered in mid-air, her gaze fixed on the direction of the G3 base.
There, too, was a great aura of light, and there was also the impure power that she needed to purify.
Chapter 93 The Earth Angels Attack
The supplies at G3 base are almost gone.
Having survived the attack by the Raven-type Unknown, their food, medicine, and energy supplies were severely depleted. After taking stock of the inventory, Takahiro Omuro reported with a grim expression that they could only last for two more days at most.
Everyone gathered in the control room to discuss the matter and unanimously agreed that the New Human Alliance had just suffered a major defeat and would not dare to invade again anytime soon. As for the Unknown, with its base defenses in place, it would not be breached in the short term.
“There are many unknowns outside, but we must go out to search for supplies, otherwise we won’t survive.” Ozawa Sumiko said solemnly.
Lin Chen pondered for a moment and then said, "Too many people will make us easy to be exposed. It's enough for just me and Bingchuan Cheng to go."
With Orga's combat power as a backup, and Hikawa Makoto wearing the G3-X, he can both keep watch and help carry supplies. Traveling together is the most efficient and safest option.
Bingchuan Cheng immediately nodded: "I'm fine with it, I can leave anytime."
Xiaoze repeatedly instructed: "Keep communication open, don't fight a strong enemy head-on, prioritize returning home."
After quickly setting up the communicator and transport vehicle, the two of them didn't delay any longer. Hikawa Makoto put on his G3-X, while Lin Chen carried the Earth Emperor's phone, and together they boarded the transport vehicle.
As the car drove away from the base, Lin Chen activated his full-range perception, taking in all unusual movements within hundreds of meters.
Along the way, Lin Chen casually dealt with the few remaining mutants, while Bingchuan Cheng focused on driving, ensuring a smooth journey.
Their target was clear—the large suburban supermarkets and logistics warehouses previously guarded by the New Human Alliance.
Those were resource points seized during the alliance's expansion. Even if we have to rob them directly this time, we still need to get enough resources.
Both of them were somewhat surprised when they arrived at the supermarket entrance.
The door was wide open, and the inside was a mess, but there wasn't a single member of the alliance in sight, only scattered packaging and empty boxes.
"What happened to the New Human Alliance?" Hikawa Makoto wondered, looking at the traces at the scene, which seemed to be the result of chaotic looting during their escape. He stopped thinking about it. It was better that no one was guarding the area; at least there wouldn't be any conflict.
Without hesitation, the two divided the work and cooperated.
Bingchuan Cheng was in charge of moving the remaining supplies: food, oil, cold medicine, bandages—anything that could be used was loaded onto the truck.
Lin Chen stood guard at the door, sensing his surroundings to prevent any surprise attacks from the Unknown or mutants.
Afterwards, they rushed to the logistics warehouse, where the situation was the same as in the supermarket: unattended, with only a small amount of supplies remaining, but enough for emergency use.
After working for more than half an hour, the transport truck was packed to the brim. Looking at the mountain of supplies, Bingchuan Cheng breathed a sigh of relief: "This is enough to keep the base going for a few more days."
Lin Chen nodded and withdrew his senses: "Let's go, let's return."
The vehicle drove away from the cargo hold and sped towards the base.
When they reached the ruined section of the road halfway through, Lin Chen's expression suddenly tightened as he sensed a faint human presence and signals from more than ten mutant creatures.
"Stop the car, there's something going on ahead."
Hikawa Makoto immediately slammed on the brakes, and the two got out of the car to investigate. Following the scent, they walked to a crevice in the ruins.
Kurosaki Ryuichi was curled up inside, covered in blood, his chest wound was festering, and his breath was so weak that it was almost imperceptible. More than a dozen mutants surrounded him, staring at him menacingly.
The once invincible leader of the New Human Alliance is now like a stray dog, powerless to resist.
"Is that Kurosaki?" Hikawa Makoto was taken aback, not expecting to run into him here. And in such a disheveled state.
Lin Chen didn't speak, and the Earth Emperor's phone immediately switched to rapid-fire mode.
Before the mutant could pounce on Kurosaki, Lin Chen raised his hand and fired. Each energy bullet landed precisely on the mutant, which instantly turned into particles of light and dissipated.
Hikawa Makoto also fired, the beam accurately hitting the remaining mutants, and a moment later, all the mutants were wiped out.
Lin Chen crouched down and checked Kurosaki's breath; there was still a faint trace of life.
Kurosaki slowly opened his eyes, saw Lin Chen and Hikawa Makoto, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by resentment and despair.
He opened his mouth, a hoarse sound coming from his throat, but he couldn't utter a complete sentence; only blood kept spilling from the corner of his mouth.
Bingchuan Cheng frowned: "He's too badly injured, he can't be saved."
Lin Chen didn't speak, but just quietly looked at Kurosaki.
This ambitious man, who once plotted to rule Tokyo and attack the G3 base, is now covered in wounds, utterly disheveled, and has lost even his last shred of dignity.
Kurosaki gasped for breath, his eyes gradually glazed over, and after taking one last look at the sky, his head lolled to the side, and he breathed his last.
An ambitious man, whose life ended in chaos.
Lin Chen and Bingchuan Cheng exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of emotion.
No matter how glorious or ambitious they once were, they died in this chaotic and crumbling world.
"Let's find a place to settle him down," Bingchuan Cheng said in a low voice.
The two simply dragged Kurosaki's body deep into the ruins and covered it with rubble. There were no extra ceremonies; in such chaotic times, even burial seemed like a luxury.
Just as he got back into the car, the communicator suddenly blared, and Ozawa Sumiko's urgent voice came through, filled with undisguised seriousness: "Lin Chen! Bingchuan! Emergency alarm!"
"Radar detected an entity with an extremely high energy peak, rapidly approaching the base. Its energy fluctuations far exceed those of any previous Unknown entities!"
"Come back quickly! The base is on high alert!"
Lin Chen and Bingchuan Cheng's expressions changed drastically, and they instantly realized the seriousness of the situation.
An individual with such high energy that could make Ozawa so nervous must be an unprecedentedly powerful enemy.
"Hurry up and go!" Lin Chen shouted.
Bingchuan Cheng immediately slammed on the gas pedal, and the transport vehicle accelerated instantly, its engine roaring as it sped towards the G3 base.
The ruins on both sides of the car window rushed past, and the two men looked solemn and remained silent.
They all knew that once that high-energy entity arrived at the base, another fierce battle was inevitable.
At this moment, tensions were already high inside the G3 base.
Hojo Toru donned his G3-II and stood guard at the base's main gate, beam rifle loaded, ready for battle.
Takahiro Omuro stared intently at the radar screen, watching the rapidly approaching red signal, his hands trembling slightly.
Sumiko Ozawa stood in front of the control panel, her eyes resolute, issuing instructions to ensure everyone was ready for battle.
The transport vehicle sped along, getting closer and closer to the base.
Lin Chen gripped the Earth Emperor phone in his pocket, extending his senses to their fullest extent, and could already vaguely detect that powerful aura.
When the two arrived at a place not far from the G3 base.
