Chapter 150

"Monsters more powerful than us have overturned everything that exists; where should we go in the future."

Ever since the bastard · Odin and the rebellious minister · Jormungandr went missing a year ago, Lu Mingze felt that the 'sky had changed'.

Sure enough, power far more powerful than his alchemy system and the Black King's Spirit system covered the Earth.

Human civilization honored the unknown elements that promoted the evolution of all spirits and wandered in the air as "Spirit Qi".

Human individuals who resonated with the extraordinary magnetic field obtained the internationally unified title of "Extraordinary Being".

Beasts possessing extraordinary power were renamed "Giant Beasts", and "Giant Beasts" were divided into six levels:

"Giant Beast (First Rank)" → "Extraordinary Giant Beast (Second Rank)" → "Commander-level Giant Beast (Third Rank)" → "King-level Giant Beast (Fourth Rank)" → "Overlord-level Giant Beast (Fifth Rank)" → "World-Extinguishing-level Giant Beast (Sixth Rank) 【Speculation】".

The most basic "Giant Beast" is just a giant flesh-and-blood life form, still within the scope of human crusade.

"Extraordinary Giant Beast" possesses extraordinary power, requiring heavy firepower suppression or the dispatch of extraordinary beings to strangle it.

"Giant Beast Commander" can command thousands, set off beast tides, and counterattack human habitats; its wisdom is not much worse than humans, and the difficulty of killing it is too high.

"Giant Beast King" individual combat power rivals a complete Long Wang, a disaster that can capture a city single-handedly.

"Giant Beast Overlord", according to deduction, can destroy a country, destroy a continental plate, and destroy the Earth's ecosystem with a single beast.

"World-Extinguishing-level Giant Beast" only exists in assumptions; if it really appeared, the Earth would probably be gone.

The six levels just happened to correspond to the comprehensive evaluation of the "Evolution Paradise" from First Rank, Second Rank, Third Rank, Fourth Rank, Fifth Rank, to Sixth Rank.

Fortunately, only one year had passed since the "Apocalypse", and the top-level giant beasts had just broken through to "Overlord (Early Fifth Rank)", still within the scope of the extraordinary human race's ability to cope.

Human civilization paid a painful price, and there were six confirmed land "Giant Beast Overlords", which were:

Arctic region: "Jibei Xiong Wang" that controls storms, thunder, and ice and snow.

African region: "Blazing Sun Lion King" that possesses fire ability and is like the incarnation of the sun.

European region: "Space God Hawk" that possesses space travel ability and moves freely.

Shenzhou region: "Nether Mountain Lord" that controls souls and death.

American region: "Life Magic Tree" that is suspected to have fought with the "Nether Mountain Lord", was forced to migrate to the Amazon in America, and possesses life and devouring abilities.

Antarctic region: "Ancient Virus Cluster" that possesses erosion, infection, and assimilation abilities and is fighting with dozens of "Top Giant Beast Kings".

As for how many "Giant Beast Overlords" were hidden in the ocean areas that human civilization was forced to abandon, no one knew.

However, there were three "Giant Beast Overlords" in the ocean area that often showed traces and were recorded by human civilization.

"Devouring Sea Monster" that was active in the Indian Ocean region for a long time and resembled a giant squid;

"Red-Bearded Dragon Lord" that was 1,000 meters long and resembled an Eastern divine dragon in the East Coast area of the Pacific Ocean;

"Deep Sea Giant Whale" that was 5,000 meters long and destroyed seven aircraft carrier groups of America in the Atlantic region.

Six land overlords, three ocean overlords, collectively known as the "Nine Great Beast Lords".

Besides the Plant Race, Feather Race, Beast Race, Sea Race, and Microbial Race, the development of the extraordinary human race was also remarkable.

In the European region, the "Faith God" that had many believers and had been worshipped for many years undoubtedly possessed Fifth Rank combat power.

The "Faith God" once confronted the "Space God Hawk", and the two sides had a tentative confrontation, with the result being a draw.

To avoid both sides suffering, the "Faith God" and the "Space God Hawk" re-divided the interest cake.

The faith system in the European region was popular, and Paladins who tempered their bodies with the power of faith and Mages who drove elements with faith were everywhere.

The joint body of many small countries in the African region imitated the "Faith God" of Europe and worshipped out a "Faith Totem Spirit".

The bloated Nige dreamed of recovering lost territory, but who would have thought that the "Blazing Sun Lion King" would take action personally, almost tearing the newly born "Faith Totem Spirit" to pieces.

The African joint body became honest and dared not stimulate the irritable and grumpy "Blazing Sun Lion King" again.

After a period of dedicated research, they developed the "Beast Blood Totem Engraving Technology" that used "Beast Blood" to engrave "Totems" on the body surface to significantly enhance physical fitness.

The price was that they would be gradually eroded by the "Beast Blood Totem", significantly reducing their lifespan limit, which could be called a means of drinking poison to quench thirst.

But it didn't matter; the population reproduction speed of Nige was completely opened up, and the ways to encourage childbirth were strange and varied.

Europe had "God Faith", Africa had "Beast Blood Totem Engraving".

The "Bloodline Fusion Technology" in the North Bear region was also quite good.

The "Faith Heroic Spirit (Fifth Rank)" they worshipped was an important reliance for resisting the "Giant Beast Overlord" in the Arctic Circle.

The "Faith Heroic Spirit" and the "Jibei Xiong Wang" had many confrontations, always limiting the wind and snow expansion area to the Arctic Circle.

The "Gene Modification Technology" in the American region was similar to the North Bear.

But the "Faith God" did not favor America, which was born of robbers.

America barely protected itself under the giant beast tide and did not possess the qualifications to fight against the "Fifth Rank Giant Beast Overlord".

All coastal areas of North America were lost, and people retreated again and again.

The coastal land was gradually swallowed by the ocean, and the "Deep Sea Giant Whale" that mobilized the power of the ocean was even more arrogant.

Fortunately, the "Life Magic Tree" lived in the Amazon rainforest and its expansion speed was not fast, otherwise life in North and South America would be even worse.

Countries like India and others were in a mess; the "Devouring Sea Monster" came ashore every few days to have a meal, and the "Witch Curse System" researched by the small fry was barely enough for self-protection.

Countries like Korea, Fusang, and the Philippines were hammered by the "Red-Bearded Dragon Lord" until they opened their mouths and closed their eyes, suffering to their heart's content.

The "Three Imperial Gods" worshipped by Fusang were too weak and died miserably under the dragon claws of the "Red-Bearded Dragon Lord"; it is estimated that the "Three Imperial Gods" would not have a chance to reunite for a while.

Extraordinary systems like monks, priests, onmyoji, and samurai also had no eye-catching performance.

On the contrary, it was the Shenzhou region with a long history.

Ancestor worship made the Qin Qin Shi Huang's Mausoleum glow with vitality, and religious worship gave birth to "Dao".

The returning Qin Qin Shi Huang called himself the "Black Emperor".

"Dao" was bound to the faith and luck of the Shenzhou region, lacked human thinking, and was more like a macro operating mechanism; its meaning of existence was to protect the land of Shenzhou.

The "Black Emperor" and "Dao" signed a contract with the "Nether Mountain Lord", and the three Fifth Rank combat powers jointly resisted enemies outside Shenzhou.

For a time, the Shenzhou region became the safest place on Earth today.

The surrounding neighbors racked their brains to merge into Shenzhou, even if they downgraded their country to an autonomous province.

Unfortunately, except for a very few countries that succeeded, the rest were rejected by Shenzhou.

However, Shenzhou's attitude was very interesting; people could come, but don't want the land, and don't even think about autonomous provinces!

"Apocalypse Era", population is the most important resource.

Only with a large population base can more scientific researchers and individual extraordinary beings be born.

The Shenzhou region, guarded by three Fifth Rank combat powers, had a hundred flowers blooming in its extraordinary system.

"Extraordinary Beings" who awakened "Talent Abilities", "Modified Humans" who underwent "Gene Modification", "Martial Artists" who honed techniques, will, and martial arts, "Mechanics" who drove giant constructs...

Besides the developed systems, there was also a new system born in cooperation with "Dao": "Qi Refiner".

"Qi Refiner" focused on honing temperament, breathing "Spirit Qi", and researching elemental techniques.

Shenzhou also had a new system in cooperation with the "Black Emperor": "Yan Master".

"Yan Master" tended to research precise control and drive "Extraordinary Puppets" with energy threads.

In just one year, the Dragon world had completely changed its appearance.

The hybrids and purebloods who were pretentious and acted cool in the past all threw themselves into the embrace of the new system.

The secrets of the dragon race were nothing in the "Apocalypse Era", and there was no issue of whether they were exposed or not.

Hybrids were renamed "Natural Bloodline Fusers".

Pureblood dragons were uniformly classified into "Land Beast Race".

The Secret Party, which aimed to slay dragons and seize power, split into two, with the European Secret Party and the American Secret Party having no contact with each other.

Cassell College of the American Secret Party was renamed Cassell Superpower College.

Besides hybrids, Cassell also recruited extraordinary beings who awakened "Talent Abilities".

But Cassell Superpower College could not be counted as a world-class extraordinary academy; Shenzhou's Shenzhou Dao Academy, Puppet Machinery University, and Canghai Superpower University occupied three of the top five positions in world-class academies.

As for why the three academies were so powerful, it was simple; behind the Shenzhou Dao Academy stood "Fifth Rank · Religious Faith Life Form · Dao".

Behind the Puppet Machinery University was "Fifth Rank · Ancestor Worship Life Form · Black Emperor".

Canghai Superpower University, located in Shanghai, was said to be related to the "Fifth Rank · Giant Beast Overlord · Red-Bearded Dragon Lord" entrenched in the eastern part of the Pacific Ocean.

The attitude of "Giant Beast Overlord · Red-Bearded Dragon Lord" was very interesting; it beat up Korea, monkeys, and Japan every few days, had an ambiguous attitude toward the Shenzhou region, and the fighting was only superficial.

The Sea Race vs Extraordinary Human Race that occurred in the coastal areas of Shenzhou was more like a training ground for the two races, a place for newcomers to exercise.

Another Fifth Rank combat power in Shenzhou was "Giant Beast Overlord · Nether Mountain Lord".

This tiger was hiding in the Shennongjia area breathing "Spiritual Energy", truly a homebody who was too lazy to go out of its own door.

Pureblood dragons were very dissatisfied with the title of "Land Beast Race", but unfortunately, they lacked the leadership of an elemental monarch, the dragon race's confidence was insufficient, and most importantly, their fists were not as hard as others.

A few second-generation species progressed very quickly in practicing the new system, ascending to the "Fourth Rank · Giant Beast King" that rivaled a complete Long Wang.

Ambitious people of the dragon race began to look forward to the realm of "Fifth Rank Top · Giant Beast Overlord" of "Star Spirit · Nidhogg".

Dragons with rebellious bones hoped to one day devour "Star Spirit · Nidhogg" and become the legendary "Sixth Rank · World-Extinguishing-level Giant Beast".

Extraordinary beings, the unified title for extraordinary humans, were divided into several levels with reference to the "Giant Beast Race".

For the convenience of circulation, humans divided extraordinary beings into: First Rank, Second Rank, Third Rank, Fourth Rank, Fifth Rank, Sixth Rank.

Because the time since the "Apocalypse Era" started was too short, the fastest human extraordinary beings had only just reached the Third Rank.

The testing ground manufactured by Meng Yi treated everyone equally; there was no such thing as a "Natural Dao Body" being superior.

What humans are strong in is wisdom and civilization, not the strong physique of "Giant Beasts".

Relying on the blessing of wisdom and logical thinking, humans made up for their innate deficiencies later.

Eating giant beast meat, occupying places rich in "Spirit Qi", developing "Evolution Potions", fusing foreign genes, manufacturing "Cultivation Rooms"...

Even so, the speed at which extraordinary humans absorbed "Spirit Qi" was still not as fast as beasts that grew by devouring flesh and blood.

The cultivation speed was even less comparable to monsters that dominated the Earth like "Faith God", "Ancestor Worship Spirit", and "Giant Beast Overlord".

The starting speed of extraordinary humans was a beat slower, but the speed of catching up could not be underestimated.

The Shenzhou region continuously took in foreign populations, the total population exceeded two billion, and the number of extraordinary beings born was also the largest.

According to the Shenzhou region's statement, Third Rank extraordinary beings could serve as "City Guardians", and the Fourth Rank extraordinary beings that had not yet appeared could be called "Pillars of the Nation".

Fifth Rank extraordinary beings that rivaled "Dao", "Black Emperor", "Nether Mountain Lord", and "Red-Bearded Dragon Lord"..., were temporarily a bit far from extraordinary humans, and exclusive titles had not yet been set.

Shenzhou · Shanghai.

World Tree remnant spirit · Lu Mingze, withdrew his gaze peeping at Lu Mingfei.

He also practiced the "Spirit Qi · Bai Xue" system.

Relying on the essence of "Star Spirit", he was able to return to the Fifth Rank and ascend to one of the current top combat powers on Earth.

Lu Mingze's situation was very awkward, because there were too many "Fifth Rank Overlords" and "Fourth Rank Top Monarchs" who were thinking about the "World Tree Remnant Spirit".

There were only nine "Beast Lords" announced by human civilization, hilarious!

The "Fifth Rank Overlords" that Lu Mingze had fought were no less than twenty.

The Fifth Rank combat powers on Earth added together were very likely to have broken through three digits!

Lu Mingze, the number one riddle-maker of the dragon race, was like a mouse in a sewer, only able to survive by relying on the "Dream Authority".

He had just recovered to the early Fifth Rank; to promote to the mid-Fifth Rank, he needed to retrieve his old remains; to ascend to the top Fifth Rank, he had to fuse the power and authority of the World Tree.

He couldn't eat Lu Mingfei for the time being, and he didn't want to do that either.

He didn't dare to set foot in North Bear in person to retrieve his remains, fearing being beaten to death by several "Fifth Rank Overlords" working together.

Moreover, Lu Mingze also needed to protect his stupid brother closely and try his best to suppress the problem of Lu Mingfei's essence being exposed.

So, the little devil sent his worker · Zero to sneak into the North Bear Empire to help him retrieve his remains.

"Boss."

The communication from the headset interrupted Lu Mingze's worries.

Satellite communication was locked, cities became isolated islands, and those who could transmit information remotely using signal base stations were not ordinary people.

"Did you find it?"

"Dream Authority" operated, and the rooftop where Lu Mingze was located fell into the dream space dominated by him.

"No, Zero is missing, very likely..."

The biting cold Arctic Circle.

The high-ponytail girl with green-black scales on her body and "Spirit · Mingzhao" distorting light hid in the edge area, not daring to approach the giant beast battlefield.

"Roar—!!"

Suddenly, a strong wind blew, thunder exploded, and snowflakes flew.

A giant bear a thousand feet tall, as burly as a mountain, trampled the ice sea, its heavy footsteps causing the earth to shake.

The wind and thunder pupils of the "Fifth Rank Overlord · Jibei Xiong Wang" firmly locked onto Jiu De Mai.

The Xiong Wang opened its palm, compared Zero captured in its palm, its giant face revealed human-like greed, and it spoke human language: "Bug! You can't run!"

Lu Mingze, far away in Shanghai, Shenzhou, hung up the phone, and his figure merged into Lu Mingfei's spiritual dream.

It was a pity that the two lackeys Jiu De Mai and Zero were gone, but it was not enough to make him have a life-and-death confrontation with a "Beast Lord".

Subordinates are just consumables; just cultivate another batch when you have time.

"Brother, 'Spirit Qi' is poisonous; getting contaminated with 'Spirit Qi' will lead to being harvested by the mastermind behind the scenes."

"I can no longer turn back, but no matter what, I will never let you get contaminated with toxins."

Lu Mingze reinforced Lu Mingfei's 'Spirit-Excluding Body', completely solidifying the loser title of loser Lu.

The layout was finished; the combat power of the Beast Lords was not just the nine that appeared.

Just the dragon-type Beast Lords alone included the Yellow Dragon, Li Dragon, Green-Backed Dragon, Red-Bearded Dragon, Kang Jin Dragon, and Azure Dragon.
