Chapter 192: Facing the Nine-Headed Dragon

A sudden, shocking change!

Everyone who saw this scene felt absurdity, grotesquerie, and despair.

Was this really the world they were familiar with?

Various monsters, grotesqueries, curses, and then this eyeball pupil, which was impossible to describe, actually occupied the entire moon!?

Had humanity... truly reached the point of no salvation?

Even Wu Pifu, upon seeing this scene, felt his heart filled with shock and despair.

A fifty-meter giant, he dared to draw his blade; a five-hundred-meter behemoth, he dared to fight to the death. But an entire moon transformed into an eyeball—this kind of enemy far exceeded the limits of his understanding...

He was powerless!

As the moon transformed into a pupil, and this pupil looked down upon the entire Earth, an inexplicably eerie and grotesque atmosphere began to permeate the whole planet.

The first to change were the old, the weak, the sick, and the disabled. They gazed up at the sky, howling one after another, and then their physical bodies rapidly twisted and deformed, turning into tentacles of flesh and blood. These tentacles scattered and wandered off, and the people themselves completely vanished within seconds.

Wu Pifu also felt a throbbing in his flesh. It was not just him; everyone on the shuttle was in the same state.

The Sleeping Spiritual Light within his sea of consciousness immediately leaped out. Under the radiance of its light, the terrifying and grotesque atmosphere that had enveloped them gradually dissipated. Only then did everyone regain their senses, immediately lowering their heads, their faces filled with horror, not daring to look at the giant pupil in the sky again.

"It's over, it's over, humanity is finished!"

A soldier suddenly roared loudly. Everyone looked at him, only to see him suddenly draw his pistol and aim it at his own forehead. Before anyone could react, *Bang! * A gunshot rang out, and the soldier died on the spot.

Just then, gunshots rang out one after another from the forward cabin. Everyone's expression changed, and Captain Hao Cheng flashed into the forward cabin.

On the ground, the number of people committing suicide at the same time was even greater—tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, millions. Only those with the most resilient minds forcibly controlled the urge to commit suicide, but that despair still filled their hearts.

Suddenly, at that moment, a vast light appeared between the Earth and the Moon.

This light almost dispelled the night, blocking the visual space between the giant eyeball pupil and the Earth.

The radiance was vast and boundless, almost like another star. Under this radiance, the eerie and grotesque atmosphere of the entire Earth was cleared away, and those who were so desperate they wanted to commit suicide gradually stopped. They looked blankly at the giant radiance in the sky, and for a moment, countless people had tears in their eyes.

"Chu Minghao! He has returned from outside the Curtain!"

All the maintenance personnel immediately understood what that radiance in the sky was.

Just then, the radiance exploded, expanding a hundredfold and transforming into countless threads of light. These dense threads of light were like flying swords, shooting straight from all directions toward the giant pupil on the moon.

The pupil shrank, almost turning into a straight line. At the same time, infinite black Qi and demonic Qi surged from the pupil, transforming into countless tentacles, organs, and sharp teeth that collided with the flying sword threads of light. A violent explosion occurred throughout the Earth-Moon orbit.

Wu Pifu and the others watched the sky anxiously, watching this battle that determined the fate of the entire world.

"This is definitely not a monster that should exist in this world!"

Wang Yihui's voice suddenly sounded in the headsets of all the maintenance personnel.

"Such a monster could never be blocked outside the Curtain! This is a monster of at least 0.3 Baseline Reality or even lower; perhaps it is a part of those monsters! This thing is just like the goat kid of the Black Forest—it was summoned by someone!"

The remnants of the Company!

This was the style of the Thirteen Singularities Company. They had no scruples whatsoever; they were pure evil. As long as they could stop Chu Minghao from saving this world, they would do anything!

Just as everyone was deep in thought, a soldier suddenly shouted from the forward cabin: "Something is approaching rapidly!"

A large screen immediately descended in the rear cabin where everyone was located. Everyone saw the screen was chaotic, and then the image gradually became clear. From the footage captured by the shuttle, it showed a nine-headed giant dragon, fifty meters in length, flying wildly at several times the speed of sound.

The target of this giant dragon was not the shuttle; the shuttle was currently at the edge of the atmosphere, while this giant dragon was only flying at an altitude of about ten thousand meters. The shuttle's built-in computer was rapidly confirming its flight target. A few seconds later, a trajectory line appeared on the map, and the target area was... the Human Freedom Federation Capital Circle, currently the largest safe zone in the world!

In fact, since the establishment of this safe zone, not only had the people of the Human Freedom Federation migrated there in large numbers, but most of the people from the entire continent and the two surrounding continents had also migrated there. Currently, this area was home to nearly two billion people... eighty percent of the world's living population resided here!

"The Curtain damage rate is skyrocketing! It has reached seventy percent... It has stabilized. After seventy percent, the rate of increase has slowed, but..."

Everyone knew what this "but" meant.

Once the nearly two billion people in the safe zone began to die on a large scale, the Curtain damage rate would begin to skyrocket uncontrollably, and then... the entire world would become completely apocalyptic!

Just as everyone was in despair, Wu Pifu shouldered his great blade and said: "I will go and kill this nine-headed dragon. The ground will depend on all of you... please help me protect Jiu Jiu and Daphne."

After speaking, Wu Pifu went to put on his personal flight combat suit.

Captain Hao Cheng directly tackled Wu Pifu, shouting loudly, her voice seemingly carrying a sob: "You don't even know how to fly, why are you acting so brave! You'll die! You'll really die! This nine-headed dragon feels so terrifying to me, you'll really die!"

Wu Pifu said nothing, pushed Captain Hao Cheng aside, and continued to put on the combat suit in silence. At this moment, Gao Zhanggong stood out. He sighed and said: "This is technological flight. Do you think you'll just stay still once you fly onto it? Let me do it..."

As he spoke, Gao Zhanggong turned his head to look at Hao Yunfeng and said: "Put my body into the hibernation pod. I'll leave the defense of my sanctuary to you and the other team members. This time... it will take at least a few months to wake up, if I don't die this time."

As he spoke, Gao Zhanggong gave a bitter smile. Then he bit his two thumbs, smeared the blood on his face and body, and at the same time, his mouth began to chant in an unintelligible tone. At the same time, a clear black skeleton appeared above his head, and a phantom resembling him emerged from his body, with more than half of it being sucked into the mouth of this skeleton.

"... Wild wind, hear my command!!"

Gao Zhanggong gave a furious roar. A wild wind suddenly whipped up in the inner cabin, blowing so hard that everyone could barely open their eyes. These wild winds gathered on Wu Pifu's body, forming a circle of white flowing wind on his skin.

The next second, Gao Zhanggong rolled his eyes and collapsed to the ground, fainting.

Hao Yunfeng sighed, helped Gao Zhanggong to sit up to the side, and he also walked in front of Wu Pifu, saying: "My extraordinary ability has a time limit, lasting at most ten minutes, and I have to send Gao Zhanggong back, so I can't give it all to you..."

As he spoke, Hao Yunfeng's body swelled, and a visible circle of light emerged from him. Then he reached out and patted Wu Pifu on the chest. More than half of this light surged along his palm into Wu Pifu's body, and then dived into his flesh.

Wu Pifu felt a force wandering through his meridians within his body. As long as he moved his mind, this force could be used by him immediately.

After doing all this, Hao Yunfeng's whole person had thinned out by a large circle, his eyes were sunken, and he sat back down beside Gao Zhanggong, listless.

!

The other martial artists were watching. They did not have this kind of extraordinary ability to lend power to others. Zhou Qingqing walked in front of Wu Pifu at this time, crouched slightly, and smiled cleverly: "Meeting you once is better than the past thirty-plus years. Although not perfect, there are no regrets."

Wu Pifu naturally could feel Zhou Qingqing's feelings. Perhaps it was because in her thirty-plus years of life, she had never met a man stronger than herself, and even if there were, they were of different generations, which was why she suddenly developed feelings for him.

However, this was definitely not love!

Wu Pifu said nothing, just stood still, cupping his fists toward Zhou Qingqing, toward the many martial artists behind her, and toward Hao Yunfeng and the others.

Captain Hao Cheng was crying and about to pounce, but Wu Pifu grabbed her by the head and threw her against the wall. A soft force kept her stuck to the cabin wall, unable to come down, and then Wu Pifu continued to cup his fists tightly.

"Wu Pifu, greetings to you all."

The many martial artists all had solemn expressions. Zhou Qingqing also stood up, the Holy See adjusted his clothing, Tai Anzhi held his arms out flat, and the other martial artists were all facing Wu Pifu in their best state, each cupping their fists in return.

"Greetings!"

The next second, Wu Pifu carried his broken great blade and pulled open the cabin door. The wild wind swept in, and amidst the whistling sound, he stepped straight out, his whole body falling straight into the Earth's atmosphere.

The nine-headed dragon, which was flying and roaring, suddenly felt something. Its nine heads looked up toward the top of its head at the same time. It saw a faint wind element roaring and rolling in from outside the atmosphere, which made the dragon eyes of its nine heads slightly narrow. But when it looked carefully again, it saw that although this wind element was huge, it was illusory and unreal, and it did not have the aura of the elemental god system. This made it breathe a sigh of relief, and then when it looked closely again, it saw that this wind element was wrapping around a human who was flying over.

Although the nine-headed dragon was a carrier, it also had wisdom, and the wisdom was not small. Its nine heads and eighteen dragon pupils stared at this person, and after looking, it sneered.

"Just this?"

"Are you here to feed me?"

"Weak mortal!"

"Weak, weak, weak!!"

The nine dragon heads roared at the same time. The nine-headed dragon directly changed its direction and pounced straight at the person above. The nine dragon heads roared and danced, and the nine dragon mouths opened wide, intending to tear the newcomer into pieces.

The next second, a round moon of blade light unfolded. The newcomer held the broken great blade and slashed dozens of times in a row, brushing past the nine-headed dragon.

The nine-headed dragon stood frozen on the spot. The next moment, one dragon head wailed as it was severed from the neck, falling toward the ground.

And that human figure had already flown up out of thin air, standing a hundred meters away from the eight-headed dragon. It was Wu Pifu, holding the broken great blade.

"Wu Pifu, greetings!"

Wu Pifu cupped his fists and bowed seriously to the eight-headed dragon.

The next second, the eight dragon heads spat fire, thunder, ice, lasers, poison gas... at him.
