Chapter 1144 - 585: No Cause for Concern
"Waited for so long, finally, it has emerged."
Amidst the storm, on a rain-proof terrace, Fan Yun glanced at the monster born of disaster and finally set down his wine glass.
Slowly raised himself up and unbuttoned the cuffs of his shirt.
Step by step, he walked down the stairs, into the enormous Secret Ritual that had already been preheated amidst the storm, within which the projection of Central Earth's mountains rose and fell, rivers surged, every detail clearly visible.
He trampled them underfoot, step by step.
Trampled through.
Finally, he raised his hand.
Closed one eye, the other squinting.
Clenched his right hand, raised his thumb, aiming remotely at the Disaster Beast roaring hungrily a thousand miles away, until the outline of his thumb completely enveloped the beast's body.
Then, casually pressed down!
A piercing screeching sound erupted instantly, echoing endlessly between the sea and sky.
Like rubber erased across glass, amidst sharp sounds, the Disaster Beast, resembling a mountain range, suddenly stiffened in place, followed by an immense pressure manifesting from the void and exploding abruptly.
Boom!!!
Its enormous body, under the pressure of a finger a thousand miles away, plunged into the sea, stirring waves, each leg frantically flailing yet unable to escape.
A distant finger, like the Heavenly Pillar itself, descended from the firmament.
The power of the Heavenly People revealed at this moment.
Waiting—
Soon after, at the Imperial garrison base, Duke Pasarella yawned, complained about those old-timers in the Elder Council, raised his hands, extended his index fingers and thumbs, connecting like a viewfinder, remotely aiming at the immobile Disaster Beast.
Thus, a sudden frame appeared from the firmament, overlooking and enveloping the beast within. At the corners, two lines extended, intersecting like crosshairs, locking onto the beast itself.
At that moment, all was silent.
The world dimmed.
A thread of annihilating light descended from beyond!
Easily piercing through the wailing beast, then followed by a turbulent shockwave blowing in all directions, effortlessly evaporating countless amounts of seawater and sand.
In the midst of the great noise, a mushroom cloud rose.
The Disaster Beast, no remains left.
Mere seconds after birth, immediately targeted and annihilated by two Heavenly People, no remains left.
Bang!
Within the muffled sound of shattering, the previously raging typhoon rapidly dissipated at a visible speed, vanishing.
Mission accomplished.
"Alright, everyone, after a long night, well done."
Fan Yun withdrew his palm, giving one last glance at the shattered projection beneath his feet, casually retracting his gaze, and smiled warmly at the waiting subordinates around him: "Later, I will commend you in Central City."
"Thanks to the General's experience and foresight, another menace has been eliminated from Central Earth."
Beside him, an officer with pale skin and emerald eyes grinned, mockingly glancing at the swaying figure above Tower City's sky: "That guy from the Security Bureau got to show off."
"Young man is not bad, a bit straightforward, but contributed to the Federation and Central Earth."
Fan Yun casually accepted the towel handed by a subordinate, wiped his hands, and tossed it aside: "Inform the Security Bureau, bring him along during the commendation later. Rare to see sincere dedication in Central Earth.
Also include that kid from Hai Chao, he did contribute."
He paused, looked at the person beside him with a slightly serious expression: "Attitude, we must show the right attitude, understood? Though the Federation laws are lenient, not as strict as the Empire's, being a relied-upon backbone, success and failure come second, the attitude must first be corrected, no slack."
"Yes."
Everyone bowed uniformly, then the assistant added two names on the merit and commendation list.
"Alright, let the young ones go celebrate."
Fan Yun waved his hand and left with hands behind his back: "Getting old, can't stay up all night, need to rest first."
Everyone followed him to the door, watched as the General boarded a car and disappeared, then the lively music sounded.
After a while, attendants served fine wine, and the dancers who waited all night in the lounge began their performance amidst the singing.
In the bustling noise, every face brimmed with joyful smiles, celebrating the victory.
.
.
Tong Shan, descended from the sky.
In the gradually dying storm, landed on Ji Jue's unfinished building, gasping tiredly.
The sound of cracking echoed, extending from the arm holding Hui Hao, spreading densely like a spiderweb.
After everything came to an end, exhausted to the point of having no strength to breathe left.
Leaning against the wall.
In the gradually sparse rain curtains, he looked up at the dissipating aftershock, the splendid city still standing, without mud or dust, brightly lit, as noisy as ever.
The flood outside the city was too far, the raging mudslides and floods, cries and tears, all invisible.
And just outside the city, one by one, silhouettes soared into the sky, beginning to deal with the leftover Disaster Beasts, methodically clearing, slaughtering.
A thread of firelight descended from the sky, exploded out of nowhere.
From the Flame Light, a vague silhouette quickly solidified, revealed a mocking smile.
Jin Wuyan from the Central Earth Security Bureau's action division.
After a night of observation, not a speck of dust on the tailored suit.
