Chapter 193: Chapter 193: The Bombing Operation! Sacrifice Them! What Does

This isn't a monster—these are all his attributes! Luca's heart burned with excitement."Has this guy gone insane?" Melania and Quagmire exchanged bewildered looks. They thought Luca had lost his mind. After all, what kind of sane person would look at a monster like that?

Then, they saw Luca grab his standard-issue longsword and walk straight toward the monsters.

"Rooar!!" A group of monsters immediately grew alert, baring their teeth at him.

But Luca seemed oblivious to their aggression, even smiling slightly.

Golden sparks flickered in the air, gradually enveloping the young man's body.

A far stronger aura than before suddenly erupted!

Under Quagmire and Melania's astonished gaze, Luca's figure vanished from their sight.

The next moment, a sharp flash of golden light swept through the monster horde!

Several monsters froze, their eyes wide open.

Their heads slowly slipped off their necks!

Scalding blood gushed out!

The bloodbath had officially begun!

Meanwhile, outside Black Mountain, the area had already been surrounded by numerous law enforcement and military personnel.

Several armed helicopters flew in tight circles overhead, their rotor blades stirring the air with a thunderous roar.

At the foot of the mountain, swarms of armed personnel in bulletproof vests, carrying firearms, numbered in the thousands.

Tanks, resembling crouching iron beasts, loomed in the distance, their black gun barrels intimidating to the eye. The endless sea of armored vehicles stretched far beyond sight, creating a spectacle of overwhelming force.

"Why haven't Quagmire and the others come out yet?" Coarmy paced back and forth, his furrowed brow and the worry in his eyes clearly showing his anxiety.

"No news yet. We lost contact with them once they entered the depths of Black Mountain," the police officer from Shen City shook his head.

"These idiots are out of their minds! How can they just approach the node like that?" Coarmy grumbled, tugging at his beard in frustration.

That was the Spatial Node leading to the Abyssal Demon Realm! Who knows how many monsters are inside? Once Donlow had relayed the message, even the top officials from Summer Country had been shaken.

The highest-level orders had been issued immediately, dispatching the nearest armed forces to Celephais. Even the more distant units had received the order to prepare for any eventuality.

And yet, Luca and his team had recklessly charged right in. Were they trying to get themselves killed?

"Exactly! Trouble magnets, all of them!" Fuzzsir added, his face twisted in anger, still bitter about the earlier events.

Coarmy knew Fuzzsir's temperament and couldn't be bothered to engage him.

With bandages wrapped around his abdomen and his face pale, Donlow comforted, "Don't worry. With their abilities, they should be able to get out of Black Mountain. Just give them some time—they'll make it out."

"We can't wait any longer." A military officer, wearing a uniform and the insignia of a major general on his chest, frowned and spoke. "We can't put countless lives at risk for just three people. I think we should proceed with a ground bombing immediately."

"No!" Coarmy shook his head without a second thought. "They're all key members of Morning Star. They are the future pillars of the Human Race. We can't just let them perish here."

Donlow also looked anxious, wanting to speak, but was directly interrupted by his superior. The officer coldly addressed them: "So what if their identities are special? Are their lives worth more than the lives of the residents of two entire cities?"

Coarmy and Donlow opened their mouths, but in the end, nothing came out. Even though Luca and Quagmire were among the most vital forces in Morning Star, their lives couldn't possibly be worth more than the lives of millions of ordinary people in two cities.

Coarmy sighed deeply. "Ten minutes. If they're not out in ten minutes, we proceed with the operation."

"Three minutes." The officer, with an impassive expression, raised his finger. "If they are not out within three minutes, we proceed with a full-scale firepower assault on Black Mountain, no matter what."

"I don't think it'll take that long." At this moment, a voice suddenly reached their ears.

Everyone present froze for a moment, then turned to see who had spoken.

They saw three figures of varying heights slowly emerging from the forest.

The one in front was a young man.

The other two were covered in blood, looking exhausted, with numerous wounds all over their bodies. But the young man was completely unscathed, wearing a casual outfit that was spotless, as if he had been taking a stroll.

The only thing out of place was the longsword he carried, which looked very striking. The specially made blade was bent, and the dried blood that had coagulated on it had turned the once shiny steel into a dark red hue.

Just by looking at them from afar, everyone could almost feel a surge of overwhelming killing intent coming at them!

They had really fought their way back from deep within Black Mountain?!

Seeing this scene, even Coarmy could hardly believe his eyes.

To be honest, he had already been mentally prepared to report them as fallen in action.

"You finally made it out. You scared me to death!" Donlow, overjoyed, immediately opened his arms and rushed forward.

Quagmire's eyes lit up at the sight. Sёarᴄh the Nôvel(F)ire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

He quickly moved to the front, his face full of swagger. "What are you talking about? It was just a few—"

Donlow didn't even glance at Quagmire, walking right past him.

Without hesitation, she threw herself at Luca, giving him a big hug, her face filled with emotion. "I thought you were a goner this time. Thank goodness you're okay..."

"Uh, thanks for your concern." Luca raised his hands awkwardly. After all, this was Drumph's granddaughter. If Drumph found out that Luca had let her embrace him like this, he would probably come back from the capital with a gun and try to kill him.

Looking at his outstretched arms and then glancing at Luca, who was still cradled in Wen Yu's embrace, Quagmire silently lowered his arms. He took out a cigarette, lit it, and with a slightly sour tone, muttered, "These young girls today really have no taste. It's just because he's a little better looking. When I was young, I wasn't any worse than him..."

"You're mistaken," Fuzzsir replied, surprised. "I've seen the photo on your ID. You were a mess."

"You little brat asking for a beating?" Quagmire's face reddened with embarrassment and anger.

At that moment, Coarmy walked over.

"You really fought your way out of Black Mountain?" He eyed the three of them in disbelief, his gaze lingering for a moment on the longsword in Luca's hand.

Damn it, the special-edition longsword was actually bent. How many monsters did this guy kill in there?

"He killed them all," Melania glanced at Luca, her expression complex.

In her mind, the image of Luca, surrounded by golden flames, cutting through the monster horde like a force of nature, came back to her.

That overwhelming power, capable of sweeping everything before it, reminded her of some powerful characters in games—he was practically a humanoid monster!

"Him?" The officer's gaze instinctively turned to Luca, giving him a once-over. He felt a bit doubtful about the claim. After all, Luca looked like just an ordinary teenager.

But the officer didn't say anything, instead picking up his radio and speaking in a deep voice. "The people from the mountain have come out. Prepare to act."

The most important thing now was to clear out the monsters from the mountain before any problems could arise. He knew the dangers of the node and understood the threat it posed.

Just as he finished speaking, Quagmire casually added, "No need to bomb the mountain. Just send people in."

The officer paused, confused. "What do you mean?"

Quagmire shrugged, "What else could it mean? All the monsters are dead."

"Dead?" Everyone, including the officer, was momentarily stunned.

Coarmy stared, wide-eyed. "You're telling me all those monsters are dead?"

Quagmire nodded. "Even if there are any left, there can't be many."

After saying that, he cast a wary glance at Luca. "You didn't see what was going on in there. This kid went completely insane. He just started chopping at anything that moved. All the monsters near the node were killed by him alone."

Everyone sucked in a sharp breath, their gazes turning to Luca with a mixture of awe and disbelief.

Even without having seen it firsthand, they all knew the significance of the node. To think that he had killed all those monsters on his own—was this kid the reincarnation of a demon god or something?

"What a monster!" Coarmy exclaimed, his tone full of awe, and he didn't doubt the truth of Quagmire's words. Though he couldn't discern Luca's exact strength, it was clear to him that Luca had grown far stronger than before.

"I've really hit the jackpot this time!"

Another officer furrowed his brow. "Even if the monsters are gone, the node is still there. If we don't deal with it, killing all the monsters won't make a difference."

He thought Quagmire had forgotten about the node and felt the need to remind him. But Quagmire just grinned and said, "Not only are the monsters gone, but the node is gone too."

"What? The node is gone too?!" This time, everyone except the three of them was stunned, their faces filled with disbelief.

The node... can it actually disappear?

"You'll see for yourselves if you go in." Quagmire couldn't be bothered to explain any further. He pointed to his own wounds, still bleeding, and helplessly said, "By the way, could someone help me with these injuries? I'm still bleeding here!"

Coarmy snapped out of it and immediately called for medical personnel to tend to Quagmire and Melania's wounds.

The remaining officers exchanged looks. One of them hesitated. "He shouldn't be lying about something like this. Should we proceed with the operation?"

Glancing at the troops that had already begun advancing toward Black Mountain, the major general thought for a moment. "Hold off on the bombing for now. Send drones and soldiers to check the situation. If it's true, have them report back immediately."

Though Black Mountain wasn't an especially strategic location, there were several nearby villages. The villagers had already evacuated, but if they launched a full attack, those villages would be reduced to rubble. If they could avoid that, it would be ideal.

Even if that person earlier was a bit crazy and lied, it wouldn't be too late to proceed with the original plan afterward.

With a decision made.

The officers quickly dispatched several teams and drones to investigate the depths of Black Mountain.

Not long after...

They received reports from Black Mountain.
