Chapter 356: The Terror of Wrath Overload, Dive!
The roar of wrath continuously echoed across the island's sky. Despite the vast open space, his voice seemed to produce reverberations. When "Sin's" bellow resounded, the entire island fell silent. Countless ongoing battles instantly became deathly quiet.
Like a tiger's roar silencing the mountains, all sounds vanished. Everyone seemed infected by that voice, their hearts trembling involuntarily. What did this mean?
......
Meanwhile, Lu Ce.
When rage completely blinded his vision and his brain seemed to solidify as if filled with massive amounts of glue, Lu Ce knew things were going badly. This intense sense of losing control was clearly the precursor to overload. But right now, he absolutely wasn't prepared for overload!
Yet the Godslayer Spike's effect was overwhelmingly powerful - his overload arrived completely unstoppable. After the wrath overload, the light green hue on his face stabilized, no longer changing randomly, now fixed in this form. But the Illusion Cloak covering his body, which could normally shapeshift freely, remained unstable.
The clothing forms on his body kept transforming and tightening until finally - they began snapping apart! Like garments with ripped seams. Especially around the arms and legs, the Illusion Cloak's fabric burst open, revealing bulging rock-like muscles beneath.
The muscles' appearance was visibly abnormal, flesh squirming beneath the skin as if something wanted to explode out. It seemed his body contained sealed immense power now trying to break free from its shell. Even his skin developed fine cracks! Yet his physique was so powerful it forcibly compressed blood vessels shut, preventing any bleeding.
"Hah... Grrrraaahh!"
Gasping hoarsely, he continuously emitted sounds like a wounded beast. Even his light-green face now resembled that of a large feline. Wrath's characteristic was increasing strength alongside anger. But now he was losing control - the rage seemed endless while his flesh couldn't possibly endure.Lu Ce's consciousness desperately fought for control within. He refused to become the world's first person killed by his own excessive power. The Illuminati member charging at him froze in terror after one glance at those light-green eyes, too petrified to advance further.
That aura could instill primal fear even in a brainless fool. Yet another member circling behind Lu Ce saw an opportunity. Those intimidating yet pained sounds made him think his target was already critically wounded. Picking up a nearby Godslayer Spike and enduring its effects, he stabbed fiercely at Lu Ce's back aiming for the heart!
Then his vision blurred instantly.
As if having eyes on the back of his head, Lu Ce pivoted instantly to face him. Then a perplexing question arose in the attacker's mind:
—Whose headless corpse was this before him?
Why was it still holding that Godslayer Spike? And why did it seem to be spinning? His consciousness vanished without pain.
Lu Ce's speed now exceeded visual nerve reflexes - the man's body was divided into three parts before his brain could react! Grabbing the corpse, Lu Ce tore it apart effortlessly with bare hands! Every muscle fiber contained explosive power meeting zero resistance.
Scarlet blood splashed across the mask. The bloodthirst being partially satisfied stabilized his mind slightly. Snatching another Godslayer Spike nearby, he hurled it like a javelin with meteor-like force, the spike becoming a streak of light shooting backward.
Thwack!
It pierced through another Illuminati member instantly, the tremendous force carrying the body flying backward into a building. Two kills in mere seconds!
Within the Godslayer Spike's suppression range, everyone was severely weakened. Though equally affected, Lu Ce's extreme condition made him terrifyingly powerful instead. Everyone was stunned.
Countless dumbfounded gazes focused on this blood-drenched figure as if witnessing hell incarnate. An emotion called fear unconsciously arose in all hearts. Were they... currently in Hell Mode?
The light-green face was now stained blood-red, wearing a savage grin. Extending his right hand, he slowly dragged claws from neck downward. Outer garments tore open, leaving five long bloody gashes from chest to abs.
"Hah... Hah... Hah..."
Clearly mentally unhinged, he seemed unable to endure further and began self-harming. Perfect Life, who'd previously boasted about wanting to challenge masters, cautiously retreated with glowing defensive hands.
Sun's mouth twitched as he inhaled sharply. "Tsk... This might be... slightly problematic..."
Meanwhile, Chiyo Eine trembled uncontrollably, eyes locked on "Sin's" condition. His current state felt hauntingly familiar - back in Tokyo, that blue mask had made her feel trapped in hell. This time seemed even worse.
Long Jiu's face spasmed as he frantically retreated. Though the Dragon Group elder ordered withdrawal via earpiece, he didn't need the instruction - he'd already commanded his team to fall back. This brother was clearly berserk - probably wouldn't stop even after several kilograms of sedatives.
"Those Illuminati morons!" Long Jiu cursed inwardly.
After several motionless seconds, Lu Ce vanished instantly, charging toward someone nearby. His movement triggered identical reactions from everyone present - explosive retreats! Lovers' Island resembled a grenade blast as figures scattered in all directions.
At the epicenter, that indiscriminate killing machine reigned supreme, its fury unchallenged. The entire sky seemed dominated by a light-green phantom controlling this domain.
......
At sea, Black Knight shuddered as Lu Ce's rampage began, pausing involuntarily. "Holy shit... Situation's looking kinda not-good huh."
