Chapter 486: A God-Slaying Strike!

~7 min read 1,281 words

Mijia fell into silence.

Even a semi-finished Anti-matter Furnace was being used; one could imagine just how massive the energy requirements for the Macro Cannon were.

After a long silence, Mijia finally said, "In two days, the Leviathan will have long since reached the vicinity of Earth. By that time, I'm afraid even if the Macro Cannon finishes charging, it will be too late."

Tiangong nodded.

"So, if we want to delay its speed..."

"There is only..."

Having said this, Tiangong did not continue.

Mijia fell into a second silence.

How could he not understand what Tiangong meant?

To delay the speed of the Leviathan, only a Super Soldier could use their life to stall it.

And currently, there were not many top-tier combatants on Earth.

There was only Liu Chuang, the Deputy Commander of the Qinglong Legion.

And then there was the Qi Lin Legion.

But the Qi Lin Legion was only responsible for Beizhixing; unless it was an absolute last resort, they would never be allowed to take action.

And Liu Chuang...

It seemed he was the only one left.

And the things he could think of, the higher-ups would certainly be able to think of as well.

Sure enough, two hours later.

Liu Chuang arrived at the Mars Scientific Research Base.

Looking at the Leviathan advancing in the distance through the monitor.

Liu Chuang smacked his lips.

"Oh my goodness, don't say, this thing doesn't look like much from far away, but up close, it's a bit scary!"

"If I remember correctly, it's just like that movie from 100 years ago, what was it called? Hate Alliance?"

"It's practically cut from the same mold as the alien ship in that; it really looks like it!"

Mijia looked at Liu Chuang with some worry.

"Deputy Commander, let's not joke around at a time like this. Take a look, can your axe split this thing?"

"Even if you can't split it, you have to delay its forward speed and wait for the Macro Cannon to finish charging!"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Chuang reached out and flicked Mijia on the forehead.

"You kid."

"What are you worried about? Come, show me the current data. I want to see just how hard this Leviathan can be!"

Tiangong did not dawdle and immediately transmitted the data to Liu Chuang's Optical Brain.

Liu Chuang read the data seriously, and then a look of difficulty appeared on his face.

"The Space-based Weapon at Dayi Base can only lightly injure it!"

"This is a bit troublesome. I can only say I will do my best, and if it really doesn't work..."

Having said this, Liu Chuang did not continue, but turned and left, heading outside.

Gazing at the Leviathan advancing toward Earth.

Liu Chuang took a deep breath, his legs exerted force suddenly, and he leaped toward outer space.

Boom!

A loud noise!

The ground was forcibly sunken by more than half a meter by Liu Chuang's step.

And he arrived in outer space in an instant.

Liu Chuang gripped his axe with one hand, and then a layer of orange-red light bloomed on the axe.

This orange-red light intensified, and in the end, it actually formed a massive projection of an axe, which was fully tens of thousands of meters in size.

Liu Chuang's complexion turned somewhat pale at first.

But he did not stop.

That massive orange-red axe projection kept growing, and growing, and growing.

Finally, it became a full 100,000 meters in size; the Leviathan began to look small in front of this axe projection.

It was only at this moment.

Liu Chuang finally stopped.

At this moment, his whole body was trembling, his face was deathly pale, and his forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat.

He tremblingly raised one hand to aim at the Leviathan in the distance.

Then he let out a roar.

"Go!"

The next second, the axe, reaching 100,000 meters in size, was fiercely thrown out by Liu Chuang.

In the blink of an eye, the axe fiercely slashed into the body of the Leviathan.

And the Leviathan, struck by the axe, let out a mournful cry.

But even so, the Leviathan had no intention of stopping its pace at all and continued to advance.

It was just that its speed was far, far slower than before; now it was like it was crawling, pitifully slow.

After the massive axe stood in a stalemate with the Leviathan for a few seconds, it finally broke through the Leviathan's thick skin, and then, with the force of a hot knife through butter, it slashed from head to tail.

It directly split the Leviathan in two vertically, though at the Leviathan's tail, a tiny bit of skin still connected the two parts.

It did not truly split into two halves.

At this point, the giant axe seemed to have exhausted all its energy; the orange-red glow dissipated completely, and it returned to its original appearance.

Standing in space, his face pale and his forehead covered in cold sweat, Liu Chuang did not even have the strength to recall his axe after seeing this scene.

His body fell directly backward.

Mijia, standing on Mars, did not hesitate in the slightest upon seeing Liu Chuang fall; he immediately flapped his wings and rushed up.

He caught Liu Chuang, then carried him steadily back to Mars.

Sitting on the surface of Mars, Liu Chuang took several deep breaths and drank some water before he could barely manage to speak.

"Damn it!"

"It was just that close!"

"If I had known, I would have pushed myself a bit harder! Maybe I could have split this Leviathan from head to tail!"

No sooner had Liu Chuang's voice fallen.

Two people wearing Red Cross armbands immediately rushed to his side to check his physical condition.

To this, Liu Chuang refused repeatedly.

"What are you doing, what are you doing!"

"I just threw an axe, why are you checking my body!"

"I am, at the very least, the Deputy Commander of the Qinglong Legion; I'm not that fragile! You can't insult someone like this!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of Tiangong came from behind him.

"Deputy Commander Liu, stop trying to act tough."

"Your axe already said it—if you had pushed any harder, you would have ended up disabled."

"Besides, your body is completely hollowed out right now; if we don't check you and something goes wrong, that would be the greatest loss!"

Liu Chuang was left stunned after hearing this.

After a full dozen seconds, he spoke up with dissatisfaction.

"What kind of situation is this!"

"My weapon sold out its own master!"

"Heartbreaking, it's truly heartbreaking!"

Tiangong did not speak, but simply handed the axe back to Liu Chuang.

Immediately after, he looked up toward space.

It could be seen that the Leviathan, which had been split vertically, had stopped moving at this moment and was just floating there quietly.

However, it was recovering bit by bit.

In just this short while, its tail had already returned to its previous state, but its body had shrunk a little bit.

Although the shrinkage was not obvious, it still could not escape Tiangong's eyes.

After watching for a good while, Tiangong finally said, "Deputy Commander Liu, the power of that axe of yours is quite something!"

"It truly lives up to being Anti-Dark Matter!"

"If it could be just a little stronger, perhaps you really could have killed this Leviathan."

Liu Chuang did not speak, but just stared blankly at space.

Yes, if he were just a little stronger, he really could have killed this Leviathan.

It was just that close.
