Being an otaku in the world of American comics

#938 - Zerg?

At the same time, amidst the relaxed and pleasant discussions of the women in the base world and the disciples, Liang Yue had leisurely arrived in Earth's outer space.

Looking down from a high vantage point, the entire eastern sea area of Asia, the Northeast Asian region, and its surrounding waters were completely shrouded in a thick layer of dark clouds.

Wherever the clouds covered, there were intense thunderstorms and the sound of thunder booming everywhere!

Even through the thick atmosphere, Liang Yue could easily capture the continuous sounds.

Moreover, through the various surface noises, he could also hear the incessant cracking sounds coming from the depths of the ocean and the continent!

Through the dark and flashing clouds, large areas of the sea and island regions below were also permeated and projected with a surge of dark red color.

That was the chain reaction that occurred after he severed several mountain and earth veins at the bottom of the sea. The island nation, originally located at the junction of tectonic plates, was undergoing a transformation like a rebirth!

At this moment, less than a minute had passed since Liang Yue had previously left Earth and ended his battle with Xiaoshui.

However, in just this one minute, the land below had undergone earth-shattering changes, a scene of vicissitudes!

The Fuyuki City where everyone was originally located had been completely swallowed by the raging seawater.

At the original site of Illya's family castle, the deep pit that had not yet been filled with seawater was now spewing magma from below.

The rolling dark red magma swept into the sky along with the thick water vapor, forming a harsh doomsday scene against the backdrop of dark clouds, hurricanes, and thunderstorms.

And such a scene had unknowingly spread to the entire island nation!

Violent tremors were constantly subverting and destroying the foundation of this island nation.

Cracks hundreds of meters long, thousands of meters long, and even tens of thousands of meters long were constantly appearing all over the islands, like countless centipedes crawling.

The hills and mountains that originally dotted the entire archipelago were rapidly collapsing and cracking, and a large amount of magma, along with the accumulated ground pressure, was constantly spewing outwards.

In the central and most prosperous area of this country, a world-renowned active volcano scenic spot, the original tranquil and peaceful natural landscape with mountains and rivers, had completely disappeared.

The towering mountain and the snow scene that remained year-round on the summit were completely gone!

At this moment, the entire mountain had been directly shattered into eight pieces by the violent earthquake!

Large amounts of magma spewed out, and massive amounts of volcanic ash rose into the air like they were free of charge, spreading in all directions with the help of the strong wind and thunder, facilitated by the heavy cloud cover.

A large number of semi-moltened magma-like mountain rock fragments were constantly rising into the sky, being thrown towards the surrounding areas of the mountain.

In this situation, the people who originally lived near the scenic spot, and even in the nearby bustling metropolitan area, were now in deep trouble.

The buildings that were already crumbling or collapsing under the strong earthquake were being smashed through and ignited in large swathes!

Even the many shelters that this country had built with great resources were now mostly destroyed in this powerful geological disaster...

Beneath the dark and howling dense clouds, large crowds of people were running around in panic, shouting in terror, but ultimately they were all drowned out by the howling wind, rain, and thunderous ground fissures.

In this process, although the weather environment was extremely harsh, and the ground and sea conditions were chaotic and不堪, there were still a large number of airplanes, ships, yachts, and even fishing boats fleeing in all directions.

In addition, there were also many local magic practitioners from all over the world who had come in the past two months because they wanted to observe up close the battles between these contestants from other worlds.

Among these people, apart from a limited group who were originally related to the Holy Grail War, most of the others were basically harboring ulterior motives.

Even more, there were many people who wanted to take advantage of the possible changes in the competition, adapt to the situation, participate in it, and try to take risks for some petty advantages.

Therefore, although these people had basically withdrawn from Fuyuki City before the start of the competition due to the strength that Liang Yue had inadvertently shown in the past month or two.

However, in order to gain a better advantage after the event, they had basically stayed and stationed in the surrounding areas of Fuyuki City.

Among them, there were many members of the Einzbern family and related people from China.

Liang Yue was floating high outside the atmosphere at this moment, watching the people shuttling through the clouds, thunderstorms, and rolling waves below, but he did not feel any fluctuations in his heart. After just a glance, he looked elsewhere.

Because his attention was now attracted by the other two groups of contestants.

To be precise, Xiaohuo and Xiaotu were in the heat of battle, and the battlefield had shifted from Fuyuki City, which had been swallowed by the tsunami, to the Kyoto area in the northeast.

And they were still moving rapidly, the entire sky was their battlefield, not restricted by the terrain below or various geological disasters.

As for the remaining Xiaojin, although he had a bye in the first round, he was not idle at this time.

He was sitting on the ruins with a calm expression amidst the wind, rain, thunder, and volcanic rockfall.

Next to him was a bug that looked a bit like a large praying mantis, golden all over, with a belly that was ten meters long, but with a human head.

Taking a closer look, if Liang Yue was not mistaken, the original owner of that head should be the contemporary heir of another magician force stationed in Fuyuki City.

According to the plot of the Fifth Holy Grail War, this blond young man should eventually summon Medea, the Greek witch who was given the magician profession.

As a result, because of his reckless style and arrogant nature, he was directly killed by the heroic spirit Medea, who was his servant.

The witch who lost her master could not stay in the mortal world for a long time, but just as she was about to dissipate, she happened to meet a high school teacher who was once a magician and a professional killer on his way home from get off work in the evening.

Thus, the strongest professional teacher in this Holy Grail War went online ~

However, the current situation was obviously different. The cross-border intrusion of Liang Yue and others had already distorted the original Holy Grail War beyond recognition.

Xiaojin on the opposite side had obviously done something to his master, the blond young man, shortly after being summoned. It seemed that he had transformed him into a bug.

From the young man's dull eyes, it was not difficult to see that his will and personal freedom had been completely controlled by Xiaojin at this time.

Moreover, with each wriggle of his big belly, an egg connected to mucus would be discharged from the end of his belly.

Then, these eggs would be taken away by some small golden mantises lurking nearby, choosing a human as a host and parasitizing on them.

A few minutes later, they would break through the chest cavity of the parasitized person and grow into a small mantis about the size of a Corgi, and the newly separated mother would become the food of this thing.

Through eating, this parasitic insect could grow rapidly, and it had already visibly grown in just a few minutes.

During the process, the exoskeleton on the body surface began to slowly solidify, and the pair of sickle-shaped chela in front of it became sharp and powerful.

In addition, this insect seemed to be able to enhance its own strength by eating various metal products, ores, and other things.

But unfortunately, the selection time was too short, and there was not much time left for this thing to grow.

In short, the blond young man was now quite miserable, his originally handsome face had become dull and silly, reduced to a transformation tool, and Xiaojin's surroundings had already gathered a full tens of thousands of golden mantis adults......
