Chapter 173 - Destroying the City with One Punch

In the sky above, Chen Tian sat steadily in his 'audience seat', while Nova in her blue spatial prison frantically slammed her mental attacks against the barrier, energy ripples exploding and then calming, like an angry blue sprite disco dancing in sparkling water.

Below, in the small plaza, was a blood-soaked pandemonium.

The situation was beginning to clear.

Deadpool and Logan, those two unkillable mad dogs, had relied purely on their healing factors to cut down Nova's Miscellaneous soldiers minions like chopping melons and vegetables.

Deadpool sang off-key while he hacked, while Logan was a raging meat grinder, his Adamantium claws bringing up a spray of blood with every pop.

But the troublesome ones remained.

Death Woman, also possessing an Adamantium skeleton and super healing, fought Logan, sparks flying and clangor ringing, neither able to overcome the other, a pure war of attrition.

Red Devil Azazel appeared and disappeared like a ghost, flashing with the smell of sulfur, each appearance adding a new wound to Deadpool or Logan, annoyingly so.

The most troublesome was Red Tank! This guy was a mobile fortress, with astonishing brute strength, impervious to attacks, and charging recklessly!

"Roar—!" Red Tank roared, punching towards the frantically dodging Johnny!

Johnny had just dodged an Arc Light and had no time to react!

Bang!!!

A heavy thud!

Johnny was struck head-on as if by a train, his entire body flying backward like a broken sack! He slammed heavily onto the edge of Ant-Man's cold, steel palm!

Pfft—!

Blood mixed with fragments of internal organs spurted from his nose and mouth! His body twisted unnaturally, his eyes rapidly losing focus, and his chest visibly caved in.

"Johnny!!" Deadpool had just cut down a minion, turned his head, and his white eyes on his mask instantly widened. "Sh*t! Little Johnny's gonna kick the bucket! Internal organs mixed with rice!"

Logan's eye twitched, but he was tightly entangled by Death Woman and couldn't break free.

Just then—

Buzz!

A soft green light enveloped the dying Johnny without warning! Time flowed backward on him!

His caved-in chest instantly bulged, twisted bones 'cracked' back into place, spurting blood flowed back into his body, and his unfocused pupils refocused!

The green light flashed and vanished.

Johnny lay on the ground, perfectly unharmed, touching his chest, which had just been blown apart, with a bewildered expression, then touching his intact face: "WTF?! I... I'm not dead?"

Deadpool froze for a moment, then burst into earth-shattering laughter, pointing at Chen Tian, who was 'watching the show' through his mask in the sky:

"Hahahahaha! Cheating! Chen Tian, you're cheating! Time Stone rollback?! This is too cheap! Referee! Someone's using hacks here!" He laughed so hard he almost fell over, nearly getting ambushed by Red Devil.

Johnny suddenly jumped up, feeling his perfectly intact body, and looked at Chen Tian in the sky with a mix of shock and anger.

"You... what did you do?"

Chen Tian completely ignored him, as if he had just casually pressed a save/load button.

"Roar!!" Red Tank saw the 'bug' he had punched alive and kicking again and grew even angrier, roaring as he crashed through another section of rock, charging towards Johnny!

"Fuck you! Big guy!" Johnny was smarter this time, his adrenaline surging, and the flames that had been struggling to ignite suddenly burst forth.

"Hahahaha, it worked! My flames are back!"

"Flame!!!!"

Johnny's entire body erupted in flames, and he shot into the sky, dodging Red Tank's pounce.

Death Woman, unable to finish the fight, grew increasingly agitated. Logan's eyes hardened, and risking taking a claw hit from her, he plunged his Adamantium claws into her abdomen, twisting fiercely!

"Ugh ah!" Death Woman screamed in pain, but her ferocity surged, and her other Adamantium claw also plunged into Logan's abdomen!

The two instantly became blood gourds, impaled on each other's claws! Blood spurted!

"F**k you!" "Bitch!!!" Both roared simultaneously, and the granulation tissue at their wounds wriggled frantically, their healing factors beginning a bloody tug-of-war!

Deadpool was annoyed by Red Devil's harassment: "Enough! Red Tomato! Are you a damn fly?!" He suddenly stopped resisting, letting Red Devil's claws pierce his heart.

Pfft!

Red Devil froze.

Deadpool, however, took the opportunity to tightly embrace Red Devil, his mask close to the other's bewildered face, grinning sinisterly: "Gotcha, baby! Now, let's go to hell together for a sulfur bath!" Before he finished speaking, the bombs on his waist exploded with a roar!

Boom!!!

Fire and shredded flesh shot into the sky!

When the smoke cleared, Deadpool's incomplete body slowly crawled up from the ground, muttering curses: "Hiss... that really f*cking hurt! Next time, I need a gentler way to say hello..."

"Boss! Give me a Time Reversal! I can't find my hands and legs!"

A green light covered Deadpool, and when it dissipated, a perfectly intact Deadpool stood in place, even his tattered uniform was flawless.

"Hahaha, this is even more of a bug than healing!"

On the other side, the high-frequency sound waves emitted by Mimic Bird gave Johnny and Logan splitting headaches.

Arc Light seized the opportunity to condense a huge current and strike Johnny!

"So noisy!" Deadpool grumbled irritably, casually picking up a piece of rubble and, with a posture comparable to a baseball home run, slammed it hard towards Mimic Bird's head!

The stone hit precisely!

Mimic Bird didn't even hum, directly collapsing, and the sound waves ceased abruptly.

Arc Light's current was only halfway through its strike when Johnny clumsily rolled away to dodge.

Red Tank crashed into Arc Light's hiding place!

Amidst the rumble, Arc Light was directly buried alive by the collapsing boulders, and electric arcs flickered a few times in the cracks of the rubble before extinguishing.

"Yay! Home run!" Deadpool made a victory gesture.

Nova, trapped in the blue cage, witnessed all this, trembling with rage, her mental attacks pounding the barrier like a torrential downpour, but to no avail.

Chen Tian didn't even change his posture.

On the ground, Nova's faction was left with only two tough nuts.

Logan and Death Woman were still impaling each other, competing to see who could heal faster.

Deadpool, swinging his katana, walked towards Red Tank with a playful grin: "Hey, big guy! Heard your head is made of iron? Try my sword?"

Johnny, meanwhile, flew in mid-air, still shaken, touching his chest, "Damn, that big guy's healing factor is so strong!!!"

Chen Tian's 'mask' scanned the battlefield, seemingly assessing the entertainment value of this 'show'.

"A bit boring."

Chen Tian's voice was not loud, but it was as if he had pressed a pause button.

Boom! Red Tank's furious roar got stuck in his throat, forcibly suppressed.

Clang! Logan's and Death Woman's Adamantium claws, which were piercing each other, paused.

Even Nova's mental attacks in the blue cage momentarily ceased.

The entire World was left with only the whimpering of the wind and sand.

Chen Tian stretched, his cracking joints sounding exceptionally clear in the dead silence.

He 'turned' to Nova, who was pale with rage in the adjacent cage, and spoke:

"When is Ellios coming?"

Nova's pupils suddenly constricted, shock written all over her face: "Ellios? That... monster?"

Then, she scoffed, her words mocking: "You want to deal with it? Heh... do you know how terrifying that thing is? Ignorance!"

She tried to see fear or wavering on Chen Tian's face.

Chen Tian didn't get an answer and didn't bother looking at her anymore.

His gaze (or rather, intention) 'fell' to the ground, and he snapped his fingers again.

Snap!

Three crimson streams of light instantly enveloped Deadpool, Logan, and Johnny, forcibly 'plucking' them from the chaotic battlefield and pulling them like cannonballs to hover beside Chen Tian.

"Hey! Dad! I was just about to hit him with a Thousand Years of Pain! Just a little more! My chance to show off!" Deadpool protested, flailing his limbs in mid-air.

Johnny, meanwhile, looked below, still shaken.

Logan was displeased with Chen Tian forcibly removing him from the battlefield and snorted angrily.

Chen Tian ignored Deadpool's chatter.

He slowly raised his right hand, spread his five fingers, and then clenched his fist tightly.

Buzz—!

Blinding, destructive White light instantly condensed, compressed, and roared on his clenched fist!

The terrifying energy fluctuations made the surrounding space wail and distort!

"Tremor · Shatter."

Chen Tian softly uttered the name of the move.

The next second, his fist, enveloped in White light, swung downwards casually towards the ravaged open ground below, towards the monstrously towering Ant-Man giant corpse lair, towards Death Woman and Red Tank...

A piercing, demonic sound echoed—Crack! Rip!

As if countless gigantic, invisible pieces of glass were being forcibly crushed at the exact same moment!

Starting from Chen Tian's fist, space itself, like fragile glass, instantly became covered with dense, crisscrossing, ghastly White cracks!

These cracks spread wildly, devouring air, cutting through everything!

Death Woman was the first to be affected.

She didn't even have time to show an expression other than horror. One second she was still impaled on Logan, the next, her wide, horrified eyes, her form-fitting uniform, her hard Adamantium skeleton, and the flesh covering that skeleton...

Everything, as the silently spreading spatial cracks swept past, was instantly disintegrated like paper fed into a shredder!

Pfft! There was no scream, only a sickening, wet, shattering sound.

All that remained was a puddle of crimson sludge, mixed with metallic gleam, unrecognizable from its original form!

Next was Red Tank!

This raging Beast felt a fatal crisis and let out a deafening roar, mixed with fear and unwillingness: "Roar—!!!"

The indestructible skin on his massive body, his heavy helmet, instantly became covered with spiderweb-like White cracks! The cracks spread wildly and deepened!

"No—" Red Tank's roar was only half-uttered.

Bang!

Like a shattered rock giant! His entire massive body, along with that unwilling roar of fury, was completely torn apart and crushed by the spatial cracks!

Rubble, flesh, steel fragments... mixed with the energy residue of the White spatial cracks, exploded into a massive, horrific 'firework' on the spot!

Rumble rumble rumble!!!

Ant-Man's giant corpse lair was as if violently kneaded.

The massive metal arm snapped and collapsed, the sturdy helmet shell, like a fragile eggshell, became covered in cracks, beginning to peel off and disintegrate layer by layer!

The entire 'hill'-like corpse structure, under the aftershocks of the spatial shattering, began a doomsday-like chain collapse!

Dust mixed with the White light exploding from spatial fragments shot into the sky, engulfing everything.

Only three figures enveloped in crimson halos hovered above the storm of destruction, silently overlooking the hellish scene below.

Deadpool whistled: "Wooow... clearance sale, everything's at rock bottom prices~"

Logan and Johnny looked at the two puddles of flesh, indistinguishable from each other, and the rapidly collapsing giant lair, feeling a chill shoot straight up their spines to their brains.

The smoke and dust had not yet fully dispersed.

Nova was trapped in the blue cage, her delicate, maiden-like face deathly pale, her lips slightly parted.

That scene had completely shattered her arrogance—Red Tank, the brute who even gave her headaches, Death Woman, the troublesome weapon...

They were actually crushed by Chen Tian like two bugs with a casual punch, along with her lair, turned into abstract art!

The lingering power of the spatial cracks still flickered in the ruins, emitting sizzling wails.

"When is Ellios coming?"

Chen Tian's calm voice sounded again, like a bucket of ice Water poured over Nova.

This time, he 'looked' at her. (Yes, a true look.)

Chen Tian lifted one side of his mask, a cold, emotionless Cang blue pupil staring at her.

Buzz!

Nova felt a chill instantly shoot from her spine to the top of her head!

Every hair on her body stood on end, goosebumps erupting! That gaze made her feel as if she was being stared at by the abyss, her soul screaming!

Her lips trembled uncontrollably for a few moments, her teeth chattering:

"Sh-should be soon... You've caused such a commotion... It will feel it very soon..."

"Mm." Chen Tian nodded, seemingly satisfied with the answer.

He lowered his mask, covering his eyes.

Snap!

A crisp snap of fingers.

Blue teleportation light instantly enveloped the four people (including Nova in the cage), and they vanished from the spot.

The next second, in front of the ruins, a blue halo flashed, and the group appeared.

Before Deadpool could even complain about this 'high-end teleportation', Chen Tian had already reached his hand into the distorted air in front of him.

Rip—

Space was torn open like a piece of rag.

Then, under the stunned gazes of Deadpool, Logan, and Johnny, and Nova's horrified stare, Chen Tian leisurely pulled out of that spatial rift...

First, he pulled out a huge beach parasol!

Then he dragged out a beach lounge chair that looked very 'kawaii?'!

Thump!

The parasol was firmly planted in the scorching sand.

Creak—

The lounge chair was placed under the umbrella, with its back to the smoking, hideous Ant-Man corpse ruins.

Chen Tian walked over gracefully, sat into the lounge chair, adjusted his posture, and let out a comfortable sigh.

"Tsk," he tilted his head, as if talking to himself, "If only I had some iced cola."

No sooner had he spoken!

Rip—

Right next to Chen Tian's lounge chair, space twisted strangely again!

A fair, slender hand with dark red nail polish suddenly reached out from the twisted space!

In that hand, there was clearly a can of cola, still covered in cold Water droplets, and a bag of potato chips!

"Here! My Lord!" A slightly annoyed and helpless female voice came from the twisted space, "Next time you take my lounge chair, say something! I was lying on it watching a show! You dropped me on the ground with a thump! My butt almost burst!"

The jade hand threw the cola and potato chips into Chen Tian's lap and then quickly retracted, the spatial ripples instantly calming.

Chen Tian caught the iced cola, snapped open the tab, tilted his head back, and took a big gulp, letting out a satisfied sigh: "Refreshing."

Deadpool's white eyes on his mask widened into perfect circles, "Holy crap?! Beach vacation?! Iced cola?! And a beautiful woman delivering takeout?! Dad... Dad, your life is too cyberpunk, isn't it?! Count me in! Get me a lounge chair too! Share some chips with me!"

Logan's eye twitched wildly, looking at Chen Tian drinking cola in front of the ruins, then at Nova in the blue cage, whose expression had completely broken down, and an extremely absurd feeling welled up in his heart.

He squeezed out a low growl from his throat: "F(ck)..."

Johnny's mouth hung open, feeling like his brain couldn't keep up.

One moment they were fighting for their lives, the next it was a beach party?

He unconsciously touched his intact chest, looking at Chen Tian with awe and... a hint of fear. This big shot's thought process was even harder to understand than his flames!

Nova, in the blue cage, looked at the absurd scene before her, listened to Deadpool's chatter, and then thought about her meticulously built lair and subordinates instantly turning to dust...

An unprecedented sense of humiliation and powerlessness, mixed with fear of Ellios, completely twisted her delicate face!

Chen Tian, however, seemed completely oblivious to everything around him, leaning comfortably in the lounge chair, iced cola in one hand, potato chips in the other, even closing his eyes?

It was as if he was enjoying a 'sunbath' in the desert, leisurely waiting for the World-destroying 'guest' who was about to arrive.

The smoke and dust from the ruins gradually dispersed with the wind, and Ant-Man's remains twisted and deformed under the scorching sun.

The air was filled with gunpowder, blood, and... the smell of barbecue potato chips?

In the dead silence, a ominous, light-devouring Shadow seemed to begin to stir on the distant horizon.

Even the wind carried a chilling, decaying coldness that made one's heart pound.

Ellios was coming.

And Chen Tian was still drinking cola.
