People around the world who were watching the live broadcast looked at the completely unharmed Monster.
A wave of panic spread among them.
In an office building, a middle-aged man watched the scene on screen.
A feeling of panic and negativity involuntarily arose in his heart: "It's over, the world is over. No one can stop the Monster Association now."
He felt despair for his own future and the fate of humanity; the more he thought about it, the louder this emotion echoed in his mind.
Tears welled up in his eyes, and he turned and walked toward the window.
"Brother Azhi, what's wrong?" Inside the office, a young man looked at the tearful middle-aged man and asked in confusion.
"It's gone, it's gone! Humanity has no hope left!" The middle-aged man said excitedly upon hearing the question.
Then, under the gaze of everyone in the office, he suddenly rushed toward the open window like a madman, propped himself up with his hands, and jumped straight down from the fifty-third floor.
"Aaaah!" Inside the office, some women immediately screamed upon seeing this.
Bang! A dull thud of a heavy object hitting the ground came from outside.
Everyone in the office looked horrified.
The middle-aged man was not an isolated case; many people with high emotional volatility and extreme tendencies chose to end their own lives.
At the same time, a line of large golden characters suddenly appeared on the live stream.
[The Monster Association annihilates the main force of the Xuanjian Division in HQ City, Nanwu Country!]
One minute after these words appeared, the live stream suddenly cut off... "Time to go back and prepare." Outside HQ City, Jiang Yan flapped the wings behind him, transforming into a blur and disappearing from the spot.
The Xuanjian Division is now completely crippled, with only Wu Yuan holding things together; defending Nanwu Country is already difficult enough.
As long as they deal with the Bureau of Gods, the second strongest Awakened Ones organization on Blue Star, the world will completely fall beneath the Monster Association's feet.
Dozens of kilometers away from HQ City, Wei Gaocheng and two others were witnessing the Golden Monster withstand a hundred nukes.
The three of them grew increasingly excited.
"Is this the strongest fighting force of our Association? Truly a terrifying existence," Li Yong exclaimed, looking toward HQ City.
Beside him, Wei Gaocheng was ecstatic: "Hmph hmph hmph, this is the true power of my Monster Association! I'm going to become an existence that can withstand nukes too!"
Han Qi also excitedly said, "I wonder if the Laboratory still has anything that can boost strength. I really want to give myself another injection."
Just then, the star seals on their hands began to flash, indicating the order to retreat had arrived.
"Let's go. Given our current strength, that kind of potent medicine probably won't be available right away. It's better to fight more and temper ourselves properly," Li Yong said to the other two.
Whenever they had free time, they would fight each other. As long as they avoided vital spots like the head and heart, the Laboratory, combined with their recovery abilities, supported them in high-intensity combat, making broken limbs a common occurrence.
As the retreat order came, the Monsters surrounding HQ City began to pull back.
With the Xuanjian Division crippled, they no longer needed to worry about being intercepted or ambushed.
Meanwhile, the remaining group of Black Gold Monsters that hadn't merged into the Golden Monster began fighting outside HQ City.
"Die! Only I get to go back!" A Black Gold Monster landed a flying kick on another Black Gold Monster's face.
Bang! This Black Gold Monster was instantly sent flying to the ground, where the surrounding Black Gold Monsters rushed forward to tear it apart and absorb it.
All these Black Gold Monsters wanted to return, but their massive numbers gave Jiang Yan a headache; the Monster Association couldn't afford to sustain them all.
He could only let them fight and absorb each other, leaving just a few individuals to return.
Hundreds of billions of Black Gold Monsters piled up in a forest, fighting each other. None wanted to be re-absorbed. This internal strife among the Black Gold Monsters lasted for several hours before stopping.
"Hmph, fighting against this Black Gold Monster? I am the strongest Black Gold Monster!" Standing in place, a Prototype Black Gold Monster wore a smug, cold smile on its face.
Hundreds of billions of Black Gold Monsters had returned to its body. It did not transform into a merged body but maintained the low-consumption Sausage Form. Although there would be a 10-20% loss during this process, it was better than abandoning all the Black Gold Monsters or bankrupting the Monster Association.
After declaring its victory, this Black Gold Monster trotted off on its short legs toward Liyang Country.
On the other side, inside a Cave in Liyang Country.
Jiang Yan came here immediately after leaving Nanwu Country. The pearl of the abyss was full; it was time for the summoning.
Jiang Yan's three-meter-plus body began to dissolve, and the black substance on the surface of his body flowed into him.
A naked body appeared, one meter ninety tall, with tight, streamlined muscles.
After crossing the threshold of Level Six, Jiang Yan's strength underwent a qualitative change, and his body even grew taller.
Jiang Yan stood still and looked at his naked body: 'It's really troublesome if I have to be naked every time I transform.'
Then, with a thought, the previously retracted black substance reappeared. This black substance attached itself to Jiang Yan's body and began to transform into a black, tight-fitting suit.
'This isn't bad.' Jiang Yan examined the suit on his body.
This suit not only highlighted his broad shoulders and narrow waist but its texture completely surpassed that of so-called high-end custom apparel.
Having done all this, Jiang Yan's consciousness entered his mind.
pearl of the abyss: 30.96 million / 30.96 million
"Negative Emotions are full. Initiate summoning?"
'Summon!'
As Jiang Yan's thought moved, purple-black mist appeared out of thin air in front of him.
RUMBLE! The purple-black mist rapidly expanded to a height of about ten meters, and bursts of rumbling sounds came from within.
Behind Jiang Yan, the Blood Master had returned at some point, accompanied by two Black Gold Monsters and a Cloud Ray.
They looked curiously at the purple mist. One of the Black Gold Monsters rubbed its finger against its chin, pretending to be profound: "I wonder if this time we can summon a Monster that can rival me. After all, being invincible is too lonely."
Snap! A black hand suddenly slapped its head. The other Black Gold Monster said annoyed, "Don't hog the spotlight! I should be the invincible Black Gold Monster."
"Damn, you dare hit me!" The struck Black Gold Monster immediately turned and started fighting the Black Gold Monster that hit it.
Jiang Yan and the Blood Master ignored the two Black Gold Monsters. One was the Original Body, and the other was the clone that absorbed hundreds of billions of Black Gold Monsters in HQ City. It didn't matter who won and absorbed whom; the result would be the same.
Another Golden Monster was responsible for guarding Bai Wenliang, who had been brought back, until Dong Guangjie and the others finished experimenting on him.
