He had just sorted out the chaotic plot of this world.
Unit-02 attacked again, but Li Yu no longer dodged. He simply threw a light punch!
Thump!
With a muffled sound, a visible shockwave emanated from Unit-02's body. The ground instantly cracked, forming a giant fissure dozens of kilometers long, with crimson LCL fluid flowing within it.
Unit-02 paused for a moment, then, along with its red metallic shell, exploded with a roar, turning into a rain of blood!
Even though Li Yu was not a Saint specialized in attack like Aiolia, his punching speed had reached the speed of light, making Unit-02 no match for him.
Without any apparent movement from Li Yu, a thin shield of ice frost appeared around his body, completely blocking the blood rain.
Li Yu wasn't afraid of being contaminated by Angel cells; he simply didn't want to get his clothes dirty.
As Unit-02 was defeated, the ground suddenly trembled violently, as if a giant beast was awakening underground.
More Angels swarmed from the sky, the ground, and the cracks in the ruins, attacking from all directions. Their numbers far exceeded the known seventeen, and their forms were bizarre.
Some were like giant octopuses waving dozens of tentacles, some resembled beetles covered in compound eyes, and others were twisted geometric shapes, writhing erratically in the air.
The remains of Unit-02, which Li Yu had pulverized, were re-coalescing at a visible speed. Broken metal and flesh crawled and writhed on the ground, gradually piecing together its original outline.
An immortal body?
Li Yu's eyebrow twitched slightly, and he understood.
It seemed that in this completely corrupted world, as long as the Second Angel, Lilith, was not dead, all Angels had become immortal.
He did not continue to entangle with these Angels. His figure transformed into a streak of light and shot into the sky, the airflow he generated dispersing the surrounding blood mist.
On the way, a giant jellyfish-shaped Angel blocked his path, its body emitting a regular, honeycomb-like blue AT Field, shimmering with a cold, eerie light.
Li Yu's mind stirred, and a thick bolt of lightning instantly tore through the sky, completely piercing the Angel from head to tail.
The seemingly solid AT Field shattered like paper, and the Angel, emitting green smoke, lost its buoyancy and plummeted straight to the ground.
After breaking through the stratosphere, Li Yu stabilized himself.
Looking out, the entire planet's upper atmosphere was filled with countless giant Angels. Bird-shaped Angels weaved through the clouds, and fish-shaped Angels swam in the atmospheric layers.
There were also various square, rhomboid, and triangular geometric shapes suspended in the air, dense like a locust plague.
These Angels seemed to receive some command and all turned towards Li Yu. The air in front of them began to distort, glowing with black and red light, and the energy fluctuations grew stronger and stronger, clearly indicating the imminent firing of powerful death rays.
Li Yu's gaze deepened as he scanned the blood-red carpet covering the ground below; there was no longer any space for humans to survive here.
With a thought, a crystalline white ice layer instantly condensed around his body. The surface of the ice layer was as smooth as a mirror, reflecting all incoming death rays back.
The sky immediately became chaotic. A large number of Angels had their AT Fields shattered by their companions' death rays, and their bodies disintegrated in the explosions, temporarily losing vitality.
But this was only the beginning; more Angels swarmed from beneath the clouds, their numbers so vast that it made one's scalp tingle.
Seeing more and more Angels attacking, a resolute glint flashed in Li Yu's eyes, and he no longer hesitated.
Let there be annihilation!
Completely destroy the planet's ecosystem, kill Adam, Lilith, and all Angels, and give this planet space to redevelop.
Li Yu slowly raised both hands above his head, and a golden Cosmo ignited around him, its brilliant light even dazzling in the dark vacuum of space.
Centered on him, the entire planet's atmosphere began to surge violently.
Beneath Li Yu's feet, a giant vortex with a diameter exceeding tens of thousands of kilometers formed, black clouds rapidly spinning within the vortex, as if the apocalypse had arrived!
Lightning wildly tore through the dark clouds, and the thunder was deafening.
All regions of the entire planet began to experience heavy snowfall. The pure white snowflakes fell on the blood-red ground, creating a strange and stark contrast.
Control the output. Fifty percent of my power should be enough.
Li Yu silently calculated. Just as he was about to plunge this planet back into an ice age, a silver-white aircraft suddenly emerged from the clouds beneath his feet.
The aircraft's exterior was already covered in a thick layer of frost and riddled with scratches, clearly having endured a fierce battle.
As soon as it emerged from the clouds, stimulated by the powerful energy emanating from Li Yu's body, its engines completely shut down.
The powerless craft, like a kite with a broken string, plummeted straight down.
Li Yu's gaze fell on the aircraft. Through the frost-covered observation window, he saw a young girl inside.
Her light blue short hair clung to her cheeks, and her ruby-like eyes were calm. If Li Yu remembered correctly, this should be Rei Ayanami, the artificial girl.
She tapped on the aircraft's observation window with both hands, trying to say something to Li Yu.
Rei Ayanami?
What happened in this world? According to the normal progression, Rei Ayanami should have already died. Had someone replicated her again?
However, if Rei Ayanami was alive, Li Yu would have a chance to obtain a god-slaying artifact, the famous spear of longinus!
This spear, it was said, was formed from the Tree of Life that gave birth to Adam and Lilith, and possessed extremely strong destructive power against gods, which Li Yu could use.
Li Yu stopped unleashing the maximum arcanum of Aquarius and steadily brought the plummeting aircraft before him.
Every Gold Saint who has awakened the Seventh Sense possesses powerful psychokinesis.
With a single thought, one can easily lift a small hill.
Without the constraints of the Gods' Covenant, Gold Saints are all superhuman beings. Flying through the sky, burrowing into the earth, deflecting bullets with their minds, and withstanding nuclear explosions with their bodies are all effortless for them.
Li Yu peeled open the aircraft's outer shell.
The hard alloy was as fragile as straw paper in his hands, immediately revealing the young girl in a white close-fitting combat suit inside the aircraft. He said calmly.
"State your purpose!"
The girl tried to speak, but the thin oxygen and violent air currents at high altitude prevented her from uttering a single word. She gestured, indicating for Li Yu to follow her back to the ground!
Li Yu said no more, and with the girl, transformed into a meteor, plummeting from high altitude.
An ice-blue shield condensed around their bodies, blocking all howling air currents and incoming attacks.
They also penetrated through the bodies of numerous Angels with unstoppable force.
The Angels' AT Fields shattered like glass upon impact!
Rei Ayanami's eyes were filled with astonishment. The powerful Angels that she struggled to defeat even while piloting an EVA were as fragile as ants before this man, utterly powerless to resist.
Seeing an imminent impact, there was no trace of fear in Rei Ayanami's eyes.
The two defied the laws of gravity, hovering directly in mid-air. Only the blood-red carpet of flesh that had cracked beneath their feet could indicate the immense power of their descent just now.
Rei Ayanami's face was as calm as still water, as if the recent danger had never occurred.
She looked at Li Yu and slowly introduced herself.
"Strong one from another world, I am Rei Ayanami."
Li Yu raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise on his face.
"Oh? How do you know I'm from another world?"
A rare, faint smile appeared on Rei Ayanami's beautiful face.
"Come with me. When we get there, you should understand."
A few minutes later, Li Yu and Rei Ayanami entered a huge abandoned base.
The ground here was exceptionally clean, not covered by that nauseating biological carpet. In the darkness, a pair of yellow eyes lit up, and countless lasers locked onto Li Yu...
