Chapter 545 - 42: Acting Inhuman (Part 2)
It seems we’ve already reached the critical point.
"Leave."
Chen Lusi swallowed the words she was about to say and pointed into the distance.
Tang Yu didn’t waste any words, promptly signaling the Empowerers of Lu City, along with Wu You lying on the ground, to leave Chen Lusi’s side.
In truth, she was very afraid.
The calm she showed just now was all an act.
After all, who wouldn’t be scared? She was already timid by nature...
And this didn’t seem like any normal climate change, nor anyone’s Authority Ability. Instead, it more closely resembled... a bona fide Celestial Punishment.
"Tangyu Celestial Strategy, what exactly is happening? Why did it suddenly become like this?"
Wu You stood beside Tangyu, watching the lead-grey clouds that seemed intent on suppressing Chen Lusi, and asked the question everyone present was itching to know.
The others also turned to look at Tangyu.
At the same time,
In the distance,
Li Zheng and his Security Army members had also moved to the beach, quickly making their way over.
They, too, had noticed the situation on this side.
"How should I know!"
Tangyu glanced at the stunned look on the faces of Li Zheng and others whose steps suddenly slowed, and said irritably, "I’m a Celestial Strategy, not a prophet... I can’t figure it out either! Everything was fine just now, so why did it turn out like this when Chen Lusi used a technique... It’s like the entire world is rejecting it!"
"So we’re just going to watch?"
Wu You looked at the increasingly dense cloud layer over Chen Lusi’s head and swallowed hard.
"..."
Tangyu was silent for a moment, then stomped her feet lightly: "Right now, we can only watch to see what’s really going on. If nothing works... I’ll go help!"
"Tangyu!"
At this moment,
Li Zheng and the others finally arrived at Tangyu’s side... shouting her name aloud, likewise seeking answers to what was happening.
But as soon as he spoke,
Boom——
The thick lead-grey clouds in the sky pressed down another notch, with thunder running wild within them, roaring loudly.
The earth trembled.
As if it were condemning Chen Lusi’s blasphemy.
Immediately after,
The already low and heavy cloud layer pushed down further, and in a moment of trance, everyone present seemed to see it.
Something half-emerged, looking down at Chen Lusi.
"..."
At this moment.
Including Tangyu.
Everyone’s bodies went rigid, frozen in place.
Soon after,
A bolt of purple-black lightning pierced through the heavy clouds... descending from the sky, with countless branches emanating a destructive aura, collapsing magnificently!
And before the earth even trembled,
Chen Lusi had already lifted Hank Machado, who was in her grasp, and hurled him upwards.
So.
The first person to bear the brunt of that lightning was not Chen Lusi.
But... Hank Machado.
The descending lightning illuminated Hank Machado’s terrified face.
He witnessed the lightning strike, his eyes wide open.
And at the moment he’s struck by the lightning, he also became the first to clearly see... the full extent of the clouds.
It wasn’t clouds at all...
But... a divine manifestation!!!
When he saw the massive ethereal silhouette coiled above the sky.
At that moment.
He truly regretted it.
And his only thought was... what technique did Chen Lusi use to deserve this?
But no one could answer his question.
Because as soon as that thought emerged,
The lightning struck him.
Boom——
Not far away.
Tangyu and the others witnessed with their own eyes as the purple-black lightning fiercely struck Hank Machado.
And Hank Machado was severed in two at the waist... split into two pieces!
Instantly turned into two parts.
Died on the spot.
And the area where he was struck by the lightning, the wound directly carbonized, turning into unrecognizable black fragments, drifting away with the wind.
In such circumstances, the lightning continued to wreak havoc on his body.
Crack.
At a certain moment, everyone heard the sound of a stone shattering.
That was Hank Machado’s stone, broken by the lightning, making the cracking sound.
Tangyu’s hair stood up on end, involuntarily activating the Authority Ability, and because of the danger, transformed into beast form.
The others were left dumbfounded.
Xia Panqiu stared blankly at Chen Lusi standing beneath Hank Machado, instinctively moving forward, heading towards Chen Lusi.
But.
Boom——
The second, third bolt of thick, destructive purple-black lightning landed immediately afterwards.
Striking down once more on the ill-fated Hank Machado, who tried to shield Chen Lusi from the lightning.
The power intensified each time.
And when the fourth lightning struck.
Bam——
Accompanied by the abrupt fracture of the stone.
Hank Machado, suspended in midair, had all his flesh carbonized, turning into a wisp of unidentified black dust, completely vanishing without a trace.
As if he had never existed.
Literally... vanished into thin air!
Boom——
Following immediately.
No respite was given to anyone.
The fifth lightning descended.
In an instant, the violent lightning arrived above Chen Lusi’s head.
He stood in place, his eyes reflecting the lightning, his chiseled face illuminated by it.
...Next, it seems, I can only endure it myself.
Chen Lusi raised his right arm above his head, harboring such a thought.
"Chen Lusi!!!"
At the same time.
Xia Panqiu suddenly lunged forward, shouting his name at the top of her lungs.
Chen Lusi heard it, hesitated slightly, and turned his head.
And before he could react.
The sound of a sonic boom, like a fighter jet screeching past! Suddenly erupted!
Next.
A massive roaring sound ensued.
The lightning above Chen Lusi’s head... was directly shattered with a punch!
