Chapter 70

070 – Overpowered

“Commencing area clearance operation through long-range artillery. Target All non-human life forms within the range, cleaning the designated area.”

As Myung-jun extended his hand and shouted, waves of white light spread like ripples around his body. After a moment, hundreds of turrets started emerging from the subtly glowing buildings and the ground.

[Turret summoning complete, consumed crystal energy: 1,267,400,000.]

‘Crazy, it’s insanely expensive!’

Myung-jun almost blurted out a curse at the unimaginable cost. However, Myung-jun desperately held back his words and proceeded to the next step.The debut release of this chapter happened at Ñøv€l-B1n.

“Initiate immediate firing.”

As soon as Myung-jun’s ears were filled with an ear-shattering blast, countless turrets began spewing fire across a radius of 200 km. It was an indiscriminate firing of immensely powerful ‘Quantum Bullets’, far more potent than the most expensive ammunition, Arcane Bullets, sold by the Liberal Clan.

“Kwaaaah!”

When the bullets, which just a moment ago easily tore apart tanks and bounced off anti-tank projectiles, embedded themselves in the bodies of dozens of meters tall giant monsters, agonizing cries filled the city. However, the projectiles, which fiercely penetrated into the muscular structure as if they would immediately pierce through it, firmly lodged themselves up to a certain depth, causing a counterforce in the pierced holes. Then, they exploded right there.

– Boom, boom, boom, boom! –

As the chain explosions of the bullets embedded in the massive humanoid bodies began, the bodies of these monsters swelled up like balloons. Finally, they burst out, spewing blood and flesh as if a fountain.

– What is this... –

Watching the spectacle, when Arin sighed with disappointment, Myung-jun, standing next to Arin’s drone, smiled.

“Quite powerful, isn’t it?”

– It’s not just strong, it’s on a different level, isn’t it? I thought Orléans was strong too, but your strength is in a completely different dimension. –

“Because it’s expensive.”

– What? –

“Well, each bullet is equivalent to 200 million in cash. And I’ve just poured over 700 billion worth of bullets.”

– Really?!! –

“Now you understand why I set a condition to take all the loot as compensation for my participation, right?”

Arin nodded. Myung-jun’s ability, which had an overwhelmingly destructive power of a different dimension, was, in essence, a double-edged sword that required a massive consumption of crystal energy for all processes.

However, one thing was certain, Myung-jun’s ability was showing efficiency proportional to the investment. Myung-jun, with his power alone, was pushing the massive legion of monsters to the brink of destruction, even when one had to consider whether the entire Servihum Clan could withstand an onslaught. But what she didn’t know was that even Myung-jun had never utilized his power to this extent before.

Since Soo-jeong developed all the turrets and ammunition used in today’s battle, he hadn’t used those weapons at all because he considered the points too valuable to waste. However, for this operation, Myung-jun judged that it was necessary to end the battle as quickly as possible to minimize civilian casualties. Therefore, he was pulling in all the advanced weapons stored in the spatial warehouse and unleashing them on the enemies.

Watching this unfold in real-time through Myung-jun’s perspective, Soo-jeong, who had developed the weapons, was continuously cheering for Myung-jun, intoxicated by the overwhelming power of the weapons.

– Oh, oh, oh, oh!! Amazing!! I knew it would be this effective!!! –

– At this rate, isn’t conquering the Earth just a matter of time!? –

– Wow, that’s too ruthless. Shouldn’t we improve it to be a bit less brutal? –

While trying to play along and lift her mood by responding appropriately, Myung-jun felt a powerful force rushing towards him from an unknown direction. It was undoubtedly an incoming attack to eliminate him, but Myung-jun stood still, waiting for the attack to come.

[Rank 6 attack detected. Void shield activated.]

With the voice ringing in Myung-jun’s ears, a large energy field was generated to his left from a small turret. Then, a tremendous black beam-shaped attack collided with the shield created by Myung-jun.

[Dimensional isolation release attempt confirmed. Energy level neutralization initiated. Dimensional isolation maintained successfully. Multiple debuff abilities affecting user’s ability detected. Reverse operation initiated... Success. Anti-debuff function activated through reverse operation... Success. The enemy’s attack has been nullified.]

While Myung-jun focused on the content of the numerous system messages resonating in his ears, the beam attack aimed at Myung-jun concluded. Following the beam, a massive monster came to a halt in front of Myung-jun.

“Amazing. You endured my curse.”

“A curse? Is it a sorcery type? Anyway, attacks performed using crystal energy are pointless in the face of overwhelming technology. Magic or curses are meaningless.”

“Can you understand what I’m saying?”

“I understand, so I’m answering, you chimpanzee bastard.”

Hearing Myung-jun’s words, the monster bowed deeply. Then, after inhaling an enormous amount of air, it shouted in a voice that seemed capable of engulfing the entire city.

[Attack detected using ultra-high-pressure sound waves. Negative pressure blocking field deployed.]

The story may not have been worth hearing, but Myung-jun, who received a request to stall for time, intentionally asked the other party with an expression that seemed genuinely interested.

“If you’re the owner of the star, are you trying to dominate humans?”

“Not at all. Did I say they were humans? The natives of this star must perish in the face of the flow of a new destiny.”

“But I’m human too.”

“If you wish, you can become one of us. It’s not a fate tied to this star but a glorious master of destiny transcending death and space, who can become the ruler of another universe.”

“Ah, so you guys came from other universes to dominate this star?”

“That’s correct.”

“But if everyone else dies, and I’m left alone, what’s the point? Joining forces with your monsters of a different race, endlessly wandering through different universes, engaging in wars? What’s left for me in all of that?”

“You can become stronger.”

Agalipha said.

“Gaining the glory of being a great being that transcends the fate of the creations of the stars, surpassing the boundaries of the vast universe, determining the flow of cause and the fate of galaxies. That is the price you obtain.”

“Hmm...”

As Myung-jun pondered with his finger on his chin, Arin’s drone, unaware of the situation, approached him.

Then, with a tone of blame, the drone started shouting at Myung-jun.

– Eh?! Seriously?! Are you actually considering such absurd words?! It’s unbelievable! You call it a deal risking the lives of all humanity?! How can you even consider such a selfish proposal?!? –

However, Myung-jun completely ignored her words and asked Agalipha in front of him.

“Can you accept the person I want as part of your group?”

“Creating kinship is also one of our abilities. If you wish, you can make all humans on Earth your kin. Of course, they will no longer be human beings by then.”

– Decline! Say no! Otherwise, you’ll disappoint your sister tremendously! She’ll scold you! She’ll spit at you when he meets you! –

“Geez, so damn noisy. Try to be quiet. We’re almost done.”

– What?! Almost done? What’s... –

At that moment, the voice that Myung-jun had been waiting for reached his ears.

– Okay. Update complete. Now, that guy will be recognized as a turret target. –

‘Good job, senior.’

Responding to Soo-jeong in his mind, Myung-jun smiled and said.

“Hey, chimpanzee.”

“What?”

“While listening to your proposal, I had this thought. It’s a bit strange that beings challenging gods and traveling across the boundaries of the universe and making such tremendous proposals to someone as insignificant as me, who is merely a planetary-scale power. You guys play on the ‘universe scale,’ right? But proposing something like that to me, means there’s something behind it.”

“I already knew you wouldn’t consider such a proposal. Yet, you continued the conversation, meaning you also had an ulterior motive. Probably...”

Agalipha’s next words coincided with Myung-jun’s timing.

“You’re trying to buy time.”

“Trying to buy time.”

At that moment, the turrets summoned by Myung-jun moved simultaneously, aiming in Agalipha’s direction. Sensing impending death, Agalipha smiled and shouted towards the sky.

“Lord Banara!!! I’m hereeee!!!”

– Tutututututu!!!! –

At the same time, Agalipha’s body vanished without leaving a trace, struck by hundreds of rounds fired by Myung-jun’s turrets.

However, despite annihilating the most powerful monster among the horde that attacked the city, Myung-jun strongly sensed that something was wrong.

This was because a powerful shockwave, felt even with the skin from the southwest direction where the monsters had gathered, was overwhelming to the point where refugees several hundred kilometers away collectively turned their heads to look in that direction, a ‘flame’ of boundless and intense force.
