Chapter 953: Secret Truth, the Real Reason Behind the World's Destruction!
Chapter 953: Secret Truth, the Real Reason Behind the World's Destruction!
As the massive Vitality Bomb approached, drawing closer to the distance of a few thousand meters from the Hungry Lang Great Snake, even Saitama, who was not far away, was stunned by the sight before him.
The enormous Vitality Bomb, now falling into the sea, resembled a genuine asteroid plummeting into the ocean from space.
The cloud cover in the sky was directly blasted open, and the surrounding area experienced an incredibly terrifying air current storm due to the Vitality Bomb's descent.
Witnessing the scene akin to a collapsing sky, Great Snake desperately wanted to flee, but his body was immobilized by heavy pressure, pinning him to the spot.
No, even if he had the chance to escape, he could sense that he seemed to be completely locked on. Even if he ran now, it would be futile.
A magic array suddenly appeared beside Saitama just before the enormous Vitality Bomb was about to plunge into the sea. When Saitama saw the white-haired figure standing before him, he was momentarily taken aback, and then his face lit up with surprise and joy.
"Night City, I knew you, that guy, wouldn't go down so easily!"
To be honest, Saitama hadn't shown much emotion since going bald, but today he experienced a rollercoaster of emotions.
"Nonsense, if there was a real crisis of dying, why would I bother saving you, baldy?"
Plus, after saving you again this time, you must treat me to a good meal when we get back. That high-end restaurant in City A with Hellblizzard was quite impressive."
As Night City spoke, he pulled Saitama into the magic array in front of him, and the next moment, both of them vanished from the sea.
"Boom————!"
When the massive Vitality Bomb completely fell into the sea, a tsunami thousands of feet high was instantly triggered. The blinding white light was so dazzling that it could be seen from the entire surface of the Earth, appearing exceptionally brilliant.
Those within the hemisphere where the Vitality Bomb exploded experienced a full-screen flash grenade effect. Even areas closer to the sea felt a high-intensity earthquake due to the seaquake.
When the Vitality Bomb completely detonated, a super-large crater nearly a thousand nautical miles wide appeared on the boundless ocean. If observed from space using satellites, one would be astonished to discover that Earth Mother had inexplicably developed a huge hole in her body.
As the Vitality Bomb exploded, even the Earth itself trembled violently.
The Earth's consciousness, residing at the Earth's core, felt a sense of palpitations upon sensing the power of the Vitality Bomb.
When the mega Mana Bomb finally exploded, it was fortunate that she intervened in time, decomposing a significant portion of the Mana within the Vitality Bomb and returning it to nature.
Otherwise, without any suppression, Hungry Lang Great Snake and the "Divine Being" might not have known that the entire Earth, including the planet's consciousness itself, would have been obliterated.
Under the assault of such a powerful Vitality Bomb, even with Great Snake's extreme regenerative abilities, he naturally succumbed. This time, not only was his heart affected, but his entire body was utterly annihilated.
However, just as the Vitality Bomb was about to fall, Hungry Lang, relying on his formidable willpower, forcibly separated himself from Great Snake.
The Vitality Bomb primarily targeted the evil aura emanating from Great Snake's body. Although Hungry Lang, who had separated from Great Snake, was not a good person and would be affected by the Vitality Bomb, he was not the bomb's designated target. In the end, under the deliberate protection of the planet's consciousness, he managed to survive.
And just as the Planet Consciousness was about to take away the Hungry Wolf, the Divine Being suddenly returned and witnessed the enormous pit on the sea and the incessant flooding of seawater, its expression turning extremely unpleasant.
As a pawn, the Great Snake perished, but when the Divine Being saw that the Hungry Wolf was still barely alive, it originally intended to take it away to further its plans.
From the perspective of breaking its limiter, the Hungry Wolf is an anomaly. Given enough time, it could grow to Saitama's level.
For the Divine Being, whether it's Saitama or the Hungry Wolf, these beings that break through their biological limitations are all threats.
If possible, the Divine Being wouldn't want to create a future problem. But upon witnessing the power that Yecheng and Saitama possessed, it had no choice but to act. Otherwise, it wouldn't stand a chance against the Planet Consciousness.
【Humans in this world only bring continuous destruction to the planet's ecosystem. They are no different from pests.
And in their repeated mistakes, they never learn from history. You still want to help them, as if you're one of them?】
Observing the enormous pit on the sea surface and the terrain destroyed by Vitality Bomb impacts, the Divine Being conveyed its thoughts to the Planet Consciousness.
【They have indeed made mistakes, but it's also a fact that many individuals have tried their best to protect this planet.
We are all deities nurtured by this planet. As transcendent beings, we shouldn't interfere with the natural laws and operations.】
In the consciousness space, the Divine Being and the Planet Consciousness argued, and Yecheng, possibly influenced by the Vitality Bomb or the Third Law, found its soul transcending, and surprisingly, could hear their conversation.
From their words, Yecheng was astonished to discover that the Divine Being had not only intervened to annihilate humanity once, but six times before! Each time, under the Planet Consciousness's interference, a tiny fraction of humans survived under its protection, enduring through disasters and starting new chapters.
The Divine Being's previous annihilation of all life on Earth was achieved by unleashing a world-ending flood, while the Planet Consciousness created the Ark of Noah...
In summary, after multiple great catastrophes, the Planet Consciousness has always protected a portion of humanity, and the Divine Being, in the end, chose to turn a blind eye to the Planet Consciousness's actions.
What enraged the Divine Being was that each time these deities protected by the Planet Consciousness, after thousands of years of continuation, their descendants still forgot their warnings and repeated the same mistakes!
The Divine Being believed this to be the humans' inherent flaw, and if it couldn't be changed, then it might as well destroy them all!
In this contest for the Hungry Wolf, the Planet Consciousness, having exhausted too much power, ultimately lost, but the Divine Being also paid a heavy price.
The Hungry Wolf, having broken its limiter, naturally couldn't match the power of the Hungry Wolf Great Snake and Yecheng.
However, in terms of potential, the Hungry Wolf was stronger than the Hungry Wolf Great Snake, and the Divine Being ultimately took the Hungry Wolf with it, perhaps intending to make it the protagonist that leads to humanity's destruction next time.
