Chapter 543: Li Ge, Your Era Has Passed

Boom~~~~

The K23 scabbard shattered, the Black Night Saber flew backward, and Li Hao piloted his fighter jet into a rapid descent, attempting to create distance. Romero condensed a red sphere of light in his hand and flung it directly forward. Li Hao sensed something amiss, maxed out his Golden Zone, brought his mecha to a hover, and struck out with the Blood Moon.

Undying Slash—Hidden Flow Two-Directional Blade.

Boom……

Upon contact, Li Hao's expression changed instantly; this was an entirely different level of power usage, an incomparably refined K23 Energy. In their own mecha combat, physical attacks accounted for seventy percent, with only thirty percent coming from K23, but Romero's strike just now was ninety percent K23 Energy attack.

The technique shattered instantly, and suddenly a warning sign appeared. The Black Night fighter jet performed an emergency Flash Strike, but it had already been seized by Romero, who followed up with a punch that blasted straight through the mecha.

Boom boom boom boom……

Rat-tat-tat-tat-tat——

Accompanied by Romero's roar, the Black Night fighter jet was smashed into scrap metal with irresistible force. Boom……

Li Hao flew directly out of the cockpit, dodging the fatal blow. Romero shook off the deck plating in his hand, a satisfied smile appearing at the corners of his mouth, "Good, worthy of being Li Ge, our Human number one. I knew your Tyrant Body must have reached perfection!"

Watching Li Hao floating in the air, burning with golden light, Romero's eyes were filled with admiration and a longing for his time as a Human. This was the goal he had always chased and surpassed. He hoped his target would be as powerful as possible, so that it would not be in vain that he had abandoned everything to pursue power.

Li Hao's Tyrant Body had indeed reached perfection, but when fighting with the Tyrant Body, Romero was almost inexhaustible. He possessed a powerful energy storage within himself, coupled with the K23 Crystal—that crystal, deep as the Abyss blue, had not weakened in the slightest even after fighting until now. Li Hao knew his mission; he could not get entangled and needed to end the battle quickly. Dragging it out would only lead to death.

What kind of person was Romero? He naturally knew Li Hao's thoughts. Suddenly, with a roar, red light illuminated the sky. Li Hao also let out a shout, his Golden Zone burning fiercely, in no way inferior to Romero, and even faster in terms of speed enhancement. A phantom of a massive, dazzling star appeared, its surging energy truly crushing the Xilian of the past, and immediately after, a giant dragon spiraled into the sky and swallowed the star directly!

Tyrant Body—Star-Devouring Heavenly Dragon Soul Essence!

The power that Li Hao had not used during the S Tournament was finally unleashed. At that stage, it was indeed a dimensional strike against Romero and the others. The limit of Humans, the Tyrant Body combined with such a top-tier Soul Essence, was indeed a thrashing for them. And Li Hao's own understanding of mecha and mastery of technique were simply unsolvable.

Yet the once-invincible Li Hao was no longer so unsolvable in Romero's eyes now, and he could not feel any shock or pressure in his heart.

What is this?

Romero sighed, "Li Hao, your era is over."

A streak of red light and a streak of golden light charged at each other at high speed, colliding without any flair. Boom boom boom boom boom boom……

The surging power shook the sky. The two fought from the sky to the ground. Li Hao suppressed Romero, his fists slamming down violently, all his power crashing into Romero's chest. Romero smashed into the ground like a meteor. Li Hao did not stop; with a wave of his hands, the massive Blood Moon Long Blade was sucked over from who knows where. Divine Imperial Blood Blade!

Man-Sword Unity!

A golden light descended from the sky, bringing down judgment!

Boom……

Romero's hands braced against the massive Blood Moon, a ferocious grin appearing at the corners of his mouth. The K23 Grade Stone bloomed with deep blue light. Roar~

Power poured out, and the Blood Moon Long Blade developed cracks, then shattered completely. Such shoddy synthetic products were truly too far behind the complete rebirth of an Insect God General. The Human body was fragile and insufficient to survive in the universe.

Boom……

Li Hao was blasted away by a punch. Before he could steady his form, Romero had already arrived above him and kicked down.

Boom……

Li Hao was driven into the ground. Romero's hands then condensed energy orbs and blasted them directly inside. Zzz-zzz-zzz-zzz-zzz~

Boom……

The ground of Kepler was instantly blasted into a massive crater, dust flying everywhere. Just as Romero relaxed slightly, Li Hao's figure appeared, throwing a punch at Romero.

The ground at Pule was instantly blasted into a massive crater, dust flying everywhere; the moment Romero relaxed slightly, Li Hao's figure appeared, slamming a punch toward Romero.

Romero caught it with one hand, both of them burning with light flames, entering a test of strength.

"Li Hao, the era of Humans has passed. You have been eliminated. Ultimate power is nothing more than this. Nangong Yuhang is the future of humanity. He is right!" Romero roared. His last hope was shattered. Yes, he had once hoped that Li Hao could defeat him, letting him know that Human potential was the ultimate, but the facts proved that Nangong Yuhang was!

Blood began to seep from the corners of Li Hao's mouth and eyes, but the power on his body did not diminish in the slightest as he fought desperately. "Is it worth being proud of becoming a puppet? You've already fallen to the point of just being alive."

Romero's mouth curled in disdain, "Life form is just a type of format. Humans, Giant Insects, Nimeier—everyone is the same. What is the meaning of life? Is it something you can define?"

A disdainful smirk appeared on the corner of Romero's mouth, "Life form is merely a type of structure; Human, Giant Insect, Nimeier, they are all the same. What is the meaning of life? Is it something you can define?"

Li Hao could only maintain his stance. His Tyrant Body was already terrifying enough to resist such power, but Romero was even more terrifying. The new life, unified in soul and body, represented the crystallization of three civilizations; this was the direction of evolution.

"What are the concepts and meanings that humans defend? They are just things bestowed upon you since childhood. The true meaning is the meaning you want yourself! Power and horizons have misled you!"

Li Hao's body began to sink. Whether in physical strength or soul intensity, Romero had begun to overwhelm Li Hao. In fact, at the beginning, the two were about the same, but Romero had used a little trick: attrition. No matter what, the fragile Human body could not out-consume an Insect God General. Now, Li Hao clearly showed signs of fatigue, relying on mental willpower to hold on.

Just at this moment, Romero's shoulders bulged strangely, and then two pitch-black holes appeared. Energy condensed, and Romero's mouth carried a strange smile, "This is the meaning of life."

Two energy beams shot toward Li Hao. Li Hao could only dodge, but the moment his body moved, the stalemate was broken. Immediately after, an overwhelming force poured into Li Hao's body; this was the combined power of Romero and Li Hao himself.

The blood in his throat could no longer be suppressed and sprayed out wildly. Romero followed closely, punching down one after another. Li Hao's body had initially managed to force out power to block a few, but by the fifth punch, the Golden Zone had been completely shattered.

The blood in his throat could no longer be suppressed and sprayed out wildly; Romero followed closely, raining down punch after punch. Li Hao's body had initially forced out strength to block a few, but by the fifth punch, his Golden Zone had been completely shattered.

Li Hao was heavily trampled into the ground by Romero. At this moment, time seemed to go quiet. Romero looked up at the Kepler sky. How insignificant life was; the strongest Human was now only able to crawl under his feet. His decision was correct.

"Li Hao, living is also a humiliation. Let me send you on your way. Do not be sad; death might also be another form of life." His right hand condensed power and reached toward Li Hao's heart. He wanted to end all this with his own hands and complete his own redemption.

"Li Hao, living is also a humiliation; let me send you on your way. Do not be sad, death might also be another form of life." He gathered strength in his right hand and reached toward Li Hao's heart; he wanted to end all of this with his own hands and complete his own redemption.

A sharp pain struck Romero's head, and Nangong Yuhang's voice echoed in his mind, "Romero, well done. Bring him back; I still need him!"

Nangong Yuhang had seen the end. Sure enough, Li Hao was ultimately just a Human. The power he had erupted with was already inconceivable, but compared to what Theseus had bestowed, it was really nothing. However, killing Li Hao just like that would be letting him off too easily, and Li Hao was the most valuable experimental subject of them all.

Polina was also radiant, "Wow, wow, wow, Li Ge! That's great, I missed him so much. My long-awaited Li Ge is finally going to join us."

Nangong Yuhang also smiled. Within Apocalypse, Selena was also very pure in her exploration of the meaning of life, transcending the vulgarity of Humans. He liked such people; used for his purposes, they could exert the greatest power.

"There might still be some small twists, but it's no longer a big problem." Nangong Yuhang patted Polina's head. This cute little girl was really not bad—pure and crazy, very much to his taste. Her skin was nice, and her soul was even more interesting.

"Ah, could there be a trap?" Polina was stunned, "Could it be that Romero...?"

"That wouldn't be the case. This kid Romero still has lingering Human emotions. Defeating Li Hao has already fulfilled his long-cherished wish, and wanting to kill him can be considered giving Li Hao a release. Unfortunately, he still underestimated Li Hao's craftiness. This guy is acting well; I, of course, have to cooperate." Nangong Yuhang laughed.

Based on his understanding of Li Hao, even though his strength was no longer enough, the fact that he didn't run away was a bit problematic. Nine times out of ten, he had some reservations left for him. However, his power level had already been revealed. Most likely, the military had given him some destructive weapon; he might even be a walking bomb himself. Poor guy, what meaning does such a life have? He still cannot escape the fate of being a tool. All of humanity's conventional weapons, or even any virus, were meaningless to him.

At this time, in the monitoring of Base One, the situation of the other Space Force units and Dita and the others was very dire. The other drop points were the same. Everything had been relatively smooth, but it was too smooth. Sure enough, after landing, they found themselves trapped in an encirclement. Chasing them were large numbers of Insectoids and boundless Giant Insects. The group had indeed experienced Hell Mode in the EMP, and now they were facing the real Hell. A group of Humans was indeed in a sorry state. Mecha were the symbolic combat power of Human technological essence, but in the face of swarm tactics and Insectoids, they could only struggle to cope.

Nangong Yuhang watched and laughed. The massive Giant Insect Legion hadn't even entered the battle yet. Were Humans trying to drop off snacks? He himself had once been such a species; it was too pathetic. And these were the Elites of humanity? This was all they could come up with?

Of course, these were all the most precious materials. Catch them alive if possible, crippled ones would do too. The Insectoids created by clones still had many problems. He needed more Insect God Generals to execute his will, realize his intentions, and be the capable generals to conquer the sea of stars. They still had to be transformed from excellent Humans, especially those old friends from Apocalypse; they were all top-tier materials.
