"Is this still human?" Everyone who witnessed this scene couldn't help but think so.
At the moment when the "Imaginary Honkai Beast" landed, everyone present instinctively covered their ears, but it was useless.
Boom!!!
The sound was like a meteor crashing down, deafening. The moment it landed, the rapidly expanding shock wave and the debris and dust rising skyward completely engulfed the entire area.
Watching the "rain of debris" falling from the sky, Yomikawa Aiho shouted loudly, "Everyone, take evasive action!"
In an instant, the sound of thunder spread, shattering the glass of the specially armored blue vehicles of the security guards, and even the birds in mid-air flew away in terror!
Some even fell as they had just taken off, stunned by the shockwave!
Everyone's eardrums were buzzing; they temporarily couldn't hear what others were saying and could only communicate through gestures.
From a distance, the scene was quite spectacular. In a bustling city, a huge "mushroom cloud" suddenly appeared, with dust rising like a dragon turning over. The sound, accompanied by a compressed-air shockwave, spread in all directions.
The entire structure of the overpass was shaking, the entire ground trembled, and even the sky changed color. Could humans really accomplish this?
Holding tightly onto the roadside guardrail, Kiyama Harumi struggled to resist the violent shaking. Despite being physically and mentally exhausted, she kept her eyes fixed on the newly arrived Selene. "Is this the strength of Level 5, Rank 1? Relying solely on physical strength... truly deserving of being called the strongest monster."
Roar!
After being violently slammed, and with Selene not exerting control over it, the Imaginary Honkai Beast immediately went into a frenzy, letting out a furious roar!
The face of the Imaginary Honkai Beast, as if covered by a mask, suddenly split open. The next moment, a purple-red light began to gather. Amid the deafening roar of the fantasy beast, a nearly ten-meter-thick purple-red beam of light shot into the sky, bringing unparalleled light and heat, and aimed straight at Selene!
"Selene!" Watching this blinding light fill the entire view, Misaka Mikoto looked at Selene with a very serious expression. She knew she couldn't possibly withstand such an attack, relying only on...
Boom!!!
Although a loud noise came to her ears, Misaka Mikoto felt no pain. As her pupils gradually adapted to the dazzling light, she discovered that Selene had actually blocked the monster's attack with just one hand.
In front of Selene's gauntlet, it seemed as if there was an invisible barrier about half a meter thick. Such a massive beam was completely defended against, without the slightest leakage, let alone any damage to the nuclear-powered experimental reactor behind her.
Standing behind Selene, watching the beam continuously dissolve into particles and dissipate, Misaka Mikoto felt a sense of beauty, "Selene, are you alright..."
"It's nothing, just a minor issue, watch this..." Of course, it's a minor issue; the Imaginary Honkai Beast's attack is essentially an energy wave that Selene can undoubtedly absorb.
"...how real lightning is used!" With that, in Misaka Mikoto's incredulous gaze, Selene reached out her remaining hand and directly tore the Imaginary Honkai Beast's light wave apart?!
Sizzle...
In the next moment, countless violent electric currents instantly covered Selene's body, enveloping her entirely, as a blue-white column of electric current shot skyward.
"You..." In Misaka Mikoto's perspective, thick sky-blue lightning bolts seeped out of Selene's skin, crackling and popping in the air!
Moreover, Misaka Mikoto keenly noticed that Selene, unlike herself, did not release these currents but kept them all contained within her body, locking them beneath her skin, concentrating them in her right arm!
In an instant, Selene's arm had turned into a brilliant sky blue and was becoming increasingly bright until it fully became a "luminous object."
Faintly, there was even an ozone smell in the air.
"..."
Seeing this scene, Misaka Mikoto was speechless. This method, only a monster like you could pull off; no ordinary person with your physical constitution could avoid roasting their own arm!
"Watch closely!" With that, Selene took a step back, and as she spoke, her figure suddenly vanished.
"Wait a minute! I haven't moved yet..." This starting motion made Misaka Mikoto feel uneasy, but it was already too late.
Boom!
The moment Selene accelerated, the ground within a radius of several meters under her feet cracked and sank, instantly raising a large amount of dirt.
Bang!!!
But the speed of sound was too slow, far less than Selene's physical acceleration. By the time Misaka Mikoto opened her mouth, she had already been blown to the ground by the shockwave, covered in dirt.
Subsequently, Selene, at a speed that left her dumbfounded, crossed a hundred meters in an instant, arriving before the forehead of the "Imaginary Honkai Beast."
In mid-air, the thunder on Selene's right hand was no longer restrained, violently erupting into a dazzling electric ball, aimed at the beast's head.
"Die!"
Sizzle...
The dazzling thunder light instantly expanded, covering the entire head of the "Imaginary Honkai Beast." The next moment, the electric light suddenly contracted to a point, then exploded violently!
Boom... Rumble!!!
The deafening, terrifying shock followed, a sound greater than all the previous noises combined, like the wrath of heaven, unstoppable!
As the thunder roared, the three people who were continuously retreating from the battlefield, including Shirai Kuroko, immediately covered their ears.
In the sound of thunder, the three glanced at the distance in a trance. Upon seeing the lightning reaching the sky, they froze for a second. Without mentioning Kiyama Harumi, who was too shocked to speak, Shirai Kuroko's mouth twitched at the corner. Yet another huge commotion, I knew with Senpai Selene here, there'd be no shortage of destruction!
Returning to Misaka Mikoto's perspective, the "Imaginary Honkai Beast," which had been rampaging in front of her with its infinite regeneration and thick armor, was already on its last breath. Under Selene's hostility, it couldn't even absorb internal energy from the imaginary space to repair itself.
However, the vitality of the "Imaginary Honkai Beast" was indeed tenacious. Even with a third of its upper body blown away, its remaining body struggled and writhed.
"Wow, so resilient? Then let me finish you off completely." With that, Selene pointed a single finger at its remaining body, and her fingertip began to be covered by a purple light, gradually forming a purple-red ball of light only two centimeters in diameter.
"It's time to end this..."
"Wait!!!"
