Suddenly, Gods Avatar's withered finger twitched ever so slightly.
It wasn't directed at anyone in particular, but merely a gentle flick towards the direction of the newly appeared Monster.
The same power of erasure descended once more, silent and invisible, yet absolutely fatal. Space itself seemed to turn pale and fragile under that power.
The Monster moved.
It didn't dodge, nor did it unleash energy to resist like Allen had done earlier. It simply raised its hand, covered in obsidian-like keratin and with scythe-like nails, and gently clenched it towards the invisible power of erasure.
Its movement seemed slow, yet it precisely grasped the power of erasure in its hand before it could fully take effect.
Yes, grasped it.
As if grasping an invisible longsword.
In the Monster' palm, dark red energy veins suddenly lit up. The power of erasure, which would have instantly annihilated Allen earlier, was forcibly condensed and compressed in its palm, emitting a faint, teeth-grating twisting sound. Finally, with a 'poof,' it dissipated into nothingness, like a crushed bubble.
It crushed God's power of erasure with its bare hands!
The entire scene fell silent once more.
This time, even despair was temporarily replaced by unparalleled shock.
"Impossible!" Drive Knight's electronic voice for the first time carried clear alarm, "It, it can neutralize that kind of attack?!"
Bang's aged eyes widened, his breathing almost stopped: "It actually did it."
Atomic Samurai's hand, resting on his sword hilt, trembled slightly: "You're joking, right?"
Tatsumaki's pupils contracted, looking at the Monster in disbelief.
Saitama also showed a surprised expression: "That's really impressive!"
The Monster on the other side were plunged into immense chaos and terror.
"It, it, it, it took that attack..." Gouketsu's words were somewhat stammered.
Black Sperm's countless heads froze simultaneously, all sound lost.
Gods Avatar also seemed genuinely'stunned' for a moment. Its withered body maintained a slightly forward-leaning posture, as if confirming everything that had just happened.
The newly appeared Monster slowly lowered its hand. The bone-white mask still showed no expression, only the two narrow, crimson slits coldly fixating on Gods Avatar.
It took a step forward.
Thump.
The sound of its footfall wasn't loud, but it seemed to strike everyone's heart.
It ignored any Heroes or Monster on the battlefield. Its target, from beginning to end, was only that one.
Gods Avatar on the moon, its indifferent posture finally showed a subtle change. Its clasped hands slowly parted, and a withered arm was raised again. This time, its five fingers were slightly spread, aimed at the Monster below.
A more powerful force began to gather.
And the Monster also slightly hunched its body. Beneath its obsidian-armored physique, the dark red energy veins surged violently like living things, and a cold, terrifying pressure, no less than that of Gods Avatar, began to emanate from it.
The second clash seemed about to begin.
Gods Avatar's indifferent posture finally showed a subtle change.
Its clasped hands slowly parted, and a withered arm was raised again, five fingers slightly spread, aimed at the Monster below.
A more powerful force began to gather, and a suffocating energy fluctuation permeated the air, as if the entire space was collapsing towards the Monster' location.
And the newly appeared Monster also slightly hunched its obsidian-armored body. The dark red energy veins on its body surged violently like living things, emitting a cold and terrifying pressure, rivaling the power of Gods Avatar.
The second clash was imminent!
"What exactly is that thing?" Child Emperor's voice trembled with disbelief. The instrument screen on his wrist was still a chaotic mess of static and error codes. "It can directly confront that kind of power?"
Drive Knight's electronic eyes flashed wildly: "Energy readings are extremely unstable, its form of existence cannot be analyzed, but its energy level is rapidly escalating, approaching... no, it has surpassed Allen's previous energy peak!"
Sitch almost collapsed into his chair in the command center. Everything that had happened today had completely exceeded his comprehension: "Isn't one God enough? Where did this Monster come from?"
The Heroes and Monster on the battlefield held their breath, nervously watching this sudden standoff.
Bang's aged face was filled with solemnity. He supported the weakened Tatsumaki and whispered: "Whatever that is, its target now seems to be that bastard."
Atomic Samurai's hand was tightly pressed on his sword hilt: "A dispute between the snipe and the clam? But we aren't even the fisherman..."
Tatsumaki's emerald eyes stared intently at the Monster' back. A strange sense of familiarity flashed through her mind, but it was immediately covered by the cold, deathly aura. She bit her lower lip and remained silent.
The Monster on the other side were equally restless.
Gouketsu's four eyes were filled with vigilance and confusion: "This guy's aura... it's both strange and a little familiar, but it's definitely not a member of the association."
Black Sperm's countless small heads whispered: "Such a terrifying feeling!"
"More terrifying than Gouketsu!"
"More frightening than Centipede Elder!"
"It's looking at that big guy up there!"
Gums squirmed uneasily, Rover's three heads simultaneously lowered, emitting threatening growls, Ugly President bared his teeth, showing a vigilant expression, Psykos observed remotely through Gyoro Gyoro, her mind fluctuating violently: "This existence was completely outside the prophecy! What in the world is going on?"
In this deathly, tense atmosphere, Gods Avatar launched the first attack.
Its slightly spread five fingers gently clenched.
There was no light, no sound, but everyone felt as if the reality of the entire battlefield was twisted for a moment.
The space around the Monster began to crack and peel like glass, revealing the void of darkness behind it. An absolute 'nothingness' was rapidly devouring its location.
The Monster seemed to tilt its expressionless, bone-faced head, then raised its hand, covered in obsidian-like keratin.
Its movements didn't seem fast, yet it precisely pierced through the shattered fragments of space, its five fingers like claws, plunging fiercely into the spreading 'nothingness'!
Dark red energy erupted from its fingertips, like the most virulent virus, and began to corrode and fill the void created by God's power!
Two diametrically opposed, yet equally terrifying forces collided violently, emitting a sharp shriek that didn't travel through the air, but directly affected the depths of everyone's soul!
