Chapter 338: Powerful enough to launch bricks!
Finally came.
My butt's gone numb from sitting.
The Imperial Princess jumped up with a gasp, gazing at the ever‑contracting black flesh tide on the horizon, a flicker of excitement flashing in her eyes.
Under everyone's gaze, the black tide fully returned to the tree itself; the black sludge gradually solidified on the enormous, pitch‑black trunk that reflected no light, and suddenly a vertical pupil opened.
Afterward, black material filled the sky, and a horribly twisted, strange monster broke free from the trunk and flew into the sky.
Tiny black particles kept drifting in, and Jierte and the others unknowingly inhaled some; even just a bit made them feel uncomfortable.
This thing.... is really weird...
The Imperial Princess spoke, her expression somewhat awkward—no, better said, irritated.
This thing gave her an indescribable feeling.
At that moment, Jierte saw a familiar figure in the distance—Boss, who had finally emerged from the secret base, standing on this land, fighting side by side with Jierte and the others.
Well, he might have come just to watch the battle; anyway, that ultimate calamity before him, Jierte will definitely kill it!
It's finally going to end....
Everyone, I'll go first!
Jierte took the lead, left hand wielding an impact lance, right hand an engine greatsword, and with a raise of his hand unleashed a terrifyingly powerful slash.
In an instant, the huge twisted monster was split in two, but of course things weren't that simple.
The huge monster let out a roar, then its body slowly reconnected, fused, and finally appeared before everyone unharmed.
Jierte furrowed his brows; he could feel that all the power contained in his strike had been completely absorbed into the opponent's body.
Meanwhile, Boss in the distance saw Jierte's strength, nodded in satisfaction, then after thinking of something, shook his head with a hint of regret.
Boss, what's wrong?
Beside Boss appeared a fully armed girl, who was the organization member responsible for personally protecting his safety and also serving as his part‑time secretary.
As one of Boss's most trusted guards, he had no intention of hiding anything from Boss; he simply shook his head and spoke his mind.
Nothing much, just admiring Jierte's strength.
Then why did you shake your head....
You know, what exactly is that thing they're facing?
Wasn't it supposed to be an ultimate calamity?
The guard looked puzzled, while Boss gave a self‑mocking laugh.
Even you think that way, huh.
Isn't that so?
In this world, nothing can yet be called an ultimate calamity.
But from a certain angle, it does indeed count.
Looking at the guard's intensely curious gaze, Boss eventually chose to continue speaking.
It's like when all the paints are mixed together, they eventually turn a uniform gray.
And all kinds of living beings, all kinds of calamities constantly mixing, merging, mutating, persisting, ultimately end up in disordered chaos, just like paints mixed together.
And this thing, namely the black calamity before your eyes, is called 'Entropy Disaster'.
Entropy?
Although the guard isn't a cultured person, she still has some understanding of this term.
Entropy.... I recall this is something that calculates the degree of chaos in the universe, right?
Hmm, you're fairly cultured, pretty much like that; then you should be able to guess something about the Entropy Disaster.
These things are disordered calamities, the most terrifying calamities, and can even be called the ultimate calamities.
They are born from entropy and greatly accelerate the universe's accumulation of entropy; wherever they exist, it indicates that civilization has reached the pinnacle of the world.
Before the guard could ask further, Boss seemed to guess what she wanted to say and spoke up first.
The Entropy Disaster you see is man‑made; it does not indicate how advanced our civilization is.
Oh....
The guard nodded blankly, but what she most wants to know now is whether Jierte and the others can kill it.
Can our people win?
With Jierte around, there should be no problem.
But you should know that this world does have 'gods' existing....
The experiment succeeded; we successfully created the Entropy Disaster artificially.
But.... the Ascender Plan encountered a variable; the natives possess strong spiritual energy, and the cause of their emergence.... is unknown.
We need to eliminate.... the variable.
Two men in strange uniforms hovered opposite each other, communicating while observing and analyzing the battle footage of Jierte and the others.
Stream after stream of data appeared; the battle data of Jierte and the others was scraped clean, and Jierta's body conspicuously glowed with red light.
The changes in spiritual energy... are too many, too many.
Given the enormous number of humans, countless terrifying abilities will inevitably arise.
If he lived in our civilization, he would be the finest warrior.
But in the Ascension Trial Field, he is the biggest obstacle.
We need... to execute him.
The plan execution agreement has been approved..... carry out the execution plan.
On the other side, Jierte was completely immersed in battle; dazzling Holy Light kept bursting forth, and the surrounding organization members also displayed their full prowess, each an absolute powerhouse.
But even so, when facing that 'ultimate calamity', they also felt utterly inadequate—except for Jierte.
Why... my attacks, except the first one that can cause damage, are almost useless thereafter?
Distorted creatures kept being conjured from the ground, joining the battlefield, and soon the battlefield fell into chaos.
They also discovered that the same move only works the first time; subsequent attacks generate strong resistance—meaning, as long as this calamity isn't killed in one blow, it can never be defeated by the same move again.
Jierte obviously noticed this as well, while others were thinking of solutions, he simply didn't care about it.
Suppose there is a monster with extraordinarily high HP, and any move used against it cannot inflict a second hit of damage—how exactly should such a thing be killed?
The answer to this question may sound complex, but it's actually quite simple.
Only a heaven-shaking, earth-shattering strike is needed! Only a strike that no one can block is needed! No second move needed!
In short: Powerful Brick Flies!
