Chapter 227 Hell and Heaven

The Pacific Ocean waters.

On the sea surface, the corpses of Kaiju formed a floating carpet that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Blue blood dyed the entire sea a strange indigo, and the air was thick with a pungent stench and the smell of char.

This was not an ocean; it was a slaughterhouse, a purgatory, a battlefield where gods had fallen.

Lilith hovered above the sea, her dragon wings flapping slowly.

She no longer paid any attention to the Kaiju emerging from the seabed.

Those stragglers were already being dealt with by others.

Her gaze was fixed firmly on the white figure ahead.

Humanoid.

This was the first time she had seen a humanoid Kaiju.

Standing two hundred and eighty meters tall, it was like a moving white mountain.

Twelve pairs of snowy wings were spread behind its back, with a wingspan exceeding four hundred meters, blotting out the sky.

Its body was covered in tight muscles, with lines that were smooth and full of power.

It looked remarkably like an angel from Western legends—if an angel had a hideous face and a mouth full of sharp teeth.

The strangest part was the light emanating from its entire body.

A gentle Holy Light, like a miracle.

But Lilith could feel that within that Holy Light lay unparalleled destruction.

This monster was very strong.

It was far beyond what those Kaiju could compare to.

Perhaps they were not even the same species at all.

Suddenly, a surge of palpitations flooded her heart.

Lilith’s four vertical pupils constricted sharply.

The White Angel slightly raised a finger, and from deep within the sea, dozens of massive shadows suddenly rose.

nuclear bombs.

The nuclear bombs previously launched by the military had been knocked down by energy pulses before they could detonate, sinking to the seabed.

She had thought they were already out of commission.

She hadn’t expected them to be fished out.

Run!

This was the first thought that appeared in Lilith’s mind.

She didn’t know if her body could withstand a nuclear bomb.

She didn’t want to find out either.

With a violent flap of her dragon wings, Lilith’s figure retreated rapidly.

But it was already too late.

The White Angel grinned.

A mouth full of Fangs was exceptionally piercing in the Holy Light.

The next moment, a blinding white light enveloped the entire world.

“Boom—!!!”

Dozens of nuclear bombs detonated collectively at the same moment, with Lilith at the center.

Not one, not ten, but dozens.

The most powerful weapons in human history were all poured into this sea at this moment.

A massive fireball rose from the sea surface, exceeding ten kilometers in diameter, like a newborn sun.

The fireball expanded and rose, tearing through the atmosphere, evaporating clouds, and vaporizing seawater.

Dozens of mushroom clouds rose within the fireball and then merged together, forming a pillar that reached straight into the sky.

Ten kilometers, twenty kilometers, thirty kilometers—it was still rising rapidly.

The shockwave spread in all directions at supersonic speeds, kicking up a hundred-meter-high tsunami that swept across the entire Pacific Ocean.

Along the coast of the Pacific Ocean.

Everyone stopped what they were doing.

Soldiers put down their shells and looked up.

Tankers leaned out of their hatches and looked into the distance.

The Reincarnators who were fighting the Kaiju froze at the same time.

They all looked toward the horizon in unison.

There, a massive fireball was rising.

It was so huge and so dazzling, as if the sun were rising from the sea.

The fireball expanded and rose, lighting up half the Earth’s sky.

The nuclear bombs had exploded.

Dozens of nuclear bombs had exploded simultaneously.

Countless Kaiju would be turned to ash in the nuclear blast.

But no one was happy, because nuclear bombs do not explode on their own.

To detonate a nuclear bomb requires specific codes, specific procedures, and specific trigger mechanisms.

Therefore, for a nuclear bomb to explode was absolutely impossible!

But it was precisely this impossibility that had happened.

No one knew what had occurred in the depths of the Pacific Ocean.

But on the Life Detection System, that Level 9 life signature still existed.

It had already moved away from the center of the nuclear blast, and its life fluctuations were steady.

The shockwave crossed the Pacific Ocean directly and reached the nearshore.

The wind howled, and the waves surged.

Everyone knew that before long, an unprecedented tsunami would sweep the coast.

On the ground, the Swarm was still devouring the corpses of the Kaiju, still charging forward frantically.

But the army had already begun to evacuate.

Tanks turned around, artillery was loaded onto trucks, and soldiers ran toward higher ground.

No one cried, and no one was sad.

Those emotions had long since been torn to shreds.

There was only one thing in their eyes—preparing for the next war.

To avenge their fallen comrades.

To avenge That Lord.

In the depths of the Pacific Ocean.

The aftermath of the nuclear blast gradually subsided.

Dozens of kilometers away, the White Angel hovered quietly above the sea.

Holy Light emanated from its body, forming a domain dozens of kilometers wide.

Within the domain, there was no radiation, no high temperature, and no shockwave.

It isolated everything.

Its dark gold vertical pupils narrowed slightly, watching the center of the nuclear blast.

The aura on its body was growing stronger and stronger.

The sea surface boiled, and the water churned.

The seawater evaporated by the nuclear blast turned into steam clouds that blotted out the sky, dyeing the entire sky a grayish-white.

But those clouds began to move.

They swirled, converged, and sank.

Within the grayish-white steam clouds, a crimson color began to seep out.

The sky darkened.

The clouds that had been dispersed by the nuclear blast reconverged.

They covered a sea area of nearly a hundred kilometers in radius, heavy and low, as if they were about to press down onto the sea surface.

The sunlight was completely obscured, and the world fell into darkness.

Then—crimson lightning exploded within the clouds.

One, two, ten, a hundred bolts.

The lightning tore through the darkness, illuminating this dead sea.

They were not ordinary lightning; they carried life, will, and destruction.

The dark clouds in the sky began to churn.

Deep within the clouds, something was awakening.

A crimson vertical pupil opened within the clouds.

It was incredibly massive and cold-blooded, looking down at the White Angel below.

Then came a second, a third, a fourth.

Countless crimson vertical pupils opened in the sky.

They were densely packed, covering the entire sky like the Eyes of Hell, staring at the mortal world.

All the eyes watched the angel simultaneously.

The dark clouds continued to spread.

Crimson lightning and white Holy Light collided, annihilated, and tore at each other at the boundary.

The world was split in two.

One side was Hell, crimson as blood.

One side was Heaven, holy as light.

And at the boundary of these two forces, a Silver-white Giant Beast was slowly rising from the sea at the center of the nuclear blast.

Her dragon wings were tattered, her exoskeleton was covered in cracks, and her blood was dripping.

But she was still alive.

In the center of the explosion of dozens of nuclear bombs, she was still alive.

She raised her head, and four crimson vertical pupils pierced through the Holy Light and the darkness, locking firmly onto the White Angel.

She grinned.

That smile was deeper than Hell and further than Heaven.

The dragon wings spread out.

On the tattered wing membrane, crimson lightning jumped once again.

An aura far exceeding the previous one burst forth from Lilith!

The surrounding radiation energy also at this moment frantically poured into Lilith’s broken body…
