Chapter: Chapter 232
“Not exceeding the scope of this ruin?” Laetitia looked down, and it seemed a bit difficult.
Pinching a lightning spear and throwing it down, while the monster was temporarily stunned by the lightning burst, Laetitia shouted to the commander: “To destroy this thing, my magic will have to level this block at least!”
“This block?!”
The commander subconsciously looked down and measured the scope of this block. Then her heart twitched, and she almost fainted. If Laetitia really blew up the entire block, her report would probably be as tall as a person.
But now there seems to be no other way. The strongest fighting power is Laetitia, only she can solve this monster.
“Why don’t you let the city’s army try to use physical attacks? Maybe this monster is just highly resistant to magic, and its physical defense is not good?” Laetitia proposed another suggestion, “If it still doesn’t work, I can only use my ultimate move to clear the field.”
“Okay, I’ll contact them immediately!” the commander replied.
If human weapons could really defeat this monster, it would be the best thing, and this block could be saved.
After returning to the ground, the commander immediately began to contact the upper echelons of Seaside City, and soon she received a response.
When faced with matters concerning their own survival, these people reacted quite quickly.
They had already seen the monster through the cameras on the airplane. If it wasn’t dealt with promptly, it wouldn’t take long for this monster to flatten the entire city.
In fact, the pilots who discovered the monster had long been requesting an attack, and the reason the higher-ups hadn’t issued an attack order was that they were waiting for the heroes’ support requests.
After all, according to the reports from the pilots, the heroes were temporarily able to control the situation, and even the monster had been suppressed. Seeing this, there was no need for them to interfere. Who knew if their interference would directly cause more trouble?
And now that the heroes had requested artillery support, they could attack. If anything went wrong, the blame would be on the heroes who requested the support.
They were just helping, and they couldn’t shift the blame onto these enthusiastic people.
After receiving the order to fire, the pilots who had been circling in the sky for a long time immediately pressed the fire button. They had already locked their sights onto the giant monster and were just waiting for the command to fire.
Missiles, trailing bright flames, flew down from the sky. The monster extended its tentacles to intercept these approaching little things with energy beams, but Laetitia would not give it that chance.
Frost and lightning struck precisely on those tentacles, interrupting the monster’s charging action and forcing it to use other tentacles to intercept those missiles.
After being interrupted like this, it was too late to charge up and release a beam. The monster had only one choice: to use its tentacles to directly detonate the missiles.
The extremely fast tentacles streaked through the air like a shadow, and a series of explosions sounded. The entire night sky was as bright as day at this moment.
When the flames subsided, Laetitia immediately saw the numerous scars on the tentacles the monster used for interception. The mucus had disappeared, and there were even some scorched marks on the already black tentacles.
It seemed effective, but not so effective.
It didn’t have that special effect, but it wasn’t countered like magic either. If the human side had sufficient ammunition reserves, it would only take a little time to wear down this monster.
Alright, so the problem is whether humans can produce enough missiles to bombard this monster’s head.
To be honest, if they were to drown the monster with a massive amount of ammunition, the consumption might be much higher than Laetitia’s ultimate move of blowing up this block.
However, this was a choice that humans had to make themselves. Laetitia was very leisurely now, holding up a shield and standing in the sky, casting control magic downwards. Chain lightning, blizzards, mud traps, anything to stall for time.
Soon, the second wave of attacks from humans flew over from afar. This time, the attack was much larger in scale than the first. The first one was just a few planes, but this time, humans used almost all their weapons except for the biggest bombs.
The monster sensed the threat from the approaching weapons. It knew that the best way now was to use long-range attacks to intercept those weapons. But after what happened just now, it also understood that the guy in the sky would never let it successfully charge up.
So, there was only one way: to withstand it.
Using its tentacles to firmly protect its main body, the monster quietly waited for the attack to arrive.
“Hmph, got smarter, huh? Then I’ll give you a big one too.” Seeing the monster decisively enter a defensive stance, Laetitia immediately removed her shield and began to charge.
She raised one hand, and a silver-white light descended from the sky, illuminating her. A light spear gradually condensed in her hand.
Aiming at the monster below her feet, Laetitia purse her lips and threw the light spear down.
As she threw the spear, the human attack had already fiercely struck the monster. The deafening explosions and bright flames proved that the humans had not held back this time. They were truly serious when dealing with monsters that appeared in the city.
A mournful cry came from the monster’s direction. It seemed that as long as the quantity was sufficient, this monster was not difficult to deal with.
Before it could recover from the human attack, Laetitia’s attack followed. The monster could only watch as the exceptionally powerful silver-white light spear penetrated its body, which was no longer protected by mucus.
Immediately, a dazzling silver light erupted.
In this light, which could almost illuminate the night sky into daylight, several of the monster’s tentacles disappeared silently.
“Is that mucus the key to resisting my magic?” The effect of this blow was beyond Laetitia’s imagination. She thought that this lightly charged light spear would at best leave a wound on the monster, but she didn’t expect it to directly evaporate the monster’s limbs.
However, to truly kill this monster, more firepower was needed.
No blood flowed from the monster’s broken limbs. Numerous small tentacles wriggled at the openings, making people suspect that this monster was composed of those creepy little tentacles.
Disgusting, truly disgusting.
*Whoosh!*
Just as Laetitia was preparing to continue tormenting the monster, a condensed beam of white light suddenly shot down from the sky. Then, a somewhat futuristic-looking aircraft appeared in her field of vision.
It seemed similar to that black aircraft, but this aircraft appeared to be simpler, perhaps a downgraded version?
The scorching light beam struck the monster, causing it to let out cries of pain. This attack was much more effective than the previous “scratching.”
“The beam contains divine power… I see, is this monster suppressed by divine power?” Inferna immediately sensed the aura in the beam that was of the same origin as hers. “Laetitia, you try attacking with divine power too.”
“Ah? I don’t know how to use it.” Laetitia immediately spread her hands. She had never used divine power before, so she was completely clueless.
Inferna was silent for a moment. “It’s fine, you just need to cast magic similar to chains. I’ll handle the enchanting.”
Chains of magic? That’s simple.
Laetitia quickly chanted a spell, and a golden chain condensed in her hand. After the chain appeared, its golden radiance dimmed for a moment, and then, its golden glow seemed to have something indescribable added to it.
Is this divine power enchantment?
Laetitia didn’t intend to study this enchanted chain here. She threw the chain towards the monster, which was too busy to pay attention due to the light beam. As soon as the chain left her hand, it began to grow rapidly and multiply. When it reached the monster, it had become a large net made of chains.
The large net accurately covered the monster. As soon as it came into contact with the chains, black smoke began to emit from the monster. The places where the monster and the chains touched were instantly scorched.
After covering the monster, the chains began to contract. The monster desperately tried to break free from the restraint of the chain net, but the more it struggled, the more its energy was consumed. It couldn’t even free its hands to block the light beams from the aircraft.
As the light beam hit the monster’s main body, the monster immediately let out a painful hum. Its struggle became more forceful, but Laetitia’s large net had completely controlled it. This final surge of madness had no effect.
Not long after, the light beam pierced the monster’s body. With a strange and chaotic cry, the monster’s body fell, but its limbs did not lose their activity. Instead, they transformed into numerous small tentacles trying to burrow into the ground and escape.
Fortunately, Laetitia’s chain net completely blocked their escape routes, and only painful death awaited these disgusting things.
Laetitia was cleaning up the remaining things. That aircraft didn’t just watch. It flew above the monster’s corpse and began to spray fire on the giant body, seemingly intending to completely erase the monster from the world.
Laetitia could also do this, but it was good to have someone do it for her, at least she could save some energy.
The time it took to completely erase the monster from the world was even longer than the time spent fighting it. After the monster died, its body’s defense did not weaken at all.
The light beam should have only precisely pierced the monster’s control center, causing its body to lose control. However, there seemed to be secondary control centers within those limbs, causing these seemingly dead things to twitch or attempt to escape from time to time.
But the result, of course, was blocked by Laetitia.
Looking at the monster that had completely disappeared, Laetitia breathed a long sigh of relief. Fighting this thing was really bizarre, perhaps even the most bizarre thing she had ever fought in her life.
If Inferna hadn’t suddenly had the idea to let her try attacking with divine power, and if she hadn’t coincidentally chosen a magic like a chain net, it was likely that after the monster fell, many small tentacles would have slipped out from underground.
Those things that slipped away were hidden dangers.
It was possible that these things would gather again and create a second such monster. But that had nothing to do with Laetitia anymore. If that time came, she would have already returned to the demon world to hide and wouldn’t care about these things.
After reconfirming that there were no survivors, Laetitia slowly landed on the ground.
That aircraft didn’t stay long. It hovered over the ruins for a while, then flew to a nearby location and landed.
Of course, this was from Laetitia’s perspective. In the eyes of others, the aircraft suddenly disappeared.
Looking at the three people climbing out of the aircraft, Laetitia’s expression became surprised. Were they from the Divine Seat?
“I’m going over there for a moment. I’ll leave this place to you, Commander.” Laetitia immediately said to the commander beside her.
After speaking, without waiting for the commander’s reply, she ran directly towards the direction of the three people from the Divine Seat.
Watching Laetitia disappear around the street corner, the commander blinked blankly. What happened?
She hadn’t recovered from the sudden victory yet. What was that aircraft? How could it be so powerful that it destroyed the monster in one go?
At this moment, Laetitia had already met the girls from the Divine Seat.
“I didn’t expect you Divine Seat people to have such advanced things. Are you selling this thing?” Laetitia looked at the aircraft hovering in mid-air and asked Yiyu Jun, who looked embarrassed.
Yiyu Jun scratched her face. She felt that her appearance here might be a bit problematic, as her current identity should be that of a fugitive, and Laetitia was one of the people who sent her in.
“I don’t know, but this kind of aircraft is quite precious to us, so it probably won’t be sold.” She replied with an awkward smile. “If you want to buy it, I can go and ask.”
“That would be great.” Laetitia nodded with satisfaction. Airplanes are good things, especially ones that look so advanced. “Alright, alright, let’s talk about something important. Why are you guys here?”
Yiyu Jun exchanged a glance with the singer beside her and felt that this was something that could be said. “We were originally planning to go directly to the center of the storm to provide support, but when we passed by here, we detected abnormal energy fluctuations, and these fluctuations were very similar to those in the center of the storm. We thought it was related to the things in the center of the storm, so we came to take a look.”
“I was originally going to try my new formula on that thing, but that thing was so fragile, it was boring,” another girl with a weak sense of presence muttered.
As soon as she heard this, Yiyu Jun became angry. She glared at the girl fiercely. “Yes, and then we consumed most of our energy and had to stop here to recharge. If something happens to Lord Shasha, I’ll be the first one to stand up and beat you to death.”
