"Where is the nearest city from here?"
"To the northeast, about five hundred kilometres away."
"Goodbye."
"Wait for me!"
King mounted Rover and dashed in the direction Ivery pointed, with Black Sperm hurriedly chasing after them.
"He... he's just leaving?"
Ivery was left dazed in the wind, but after a short while, King turned back.
"What a hassle, get on."
King pulled Ivery onto Rover's back, and the group sped off toward the city. In truth, he didn't really want to take Ivery along since she was being hunted by the Church, but the system notification happened to ring out at that moment.
[Ding! Mission triggered: Save the Leopard Tribe girl Ivery and escort her to the Brave Association. Reward: Skill: Void Boundary.]
Although he didn't know where the Hero Association was, he still had to complete the system's mission.
[Ding! Kill the Church's God's agent Warren, fuse Divine Power. Reward: one random talent.]
They had traveled for less than half a day when the system notification rang out again.
During this half-day, King had also learned about the general situation here from Ivery.
The 10th Galaxy had many planets, and on each planet, countless races lived and thrived. Due to the abundance of resources, the various planets had always coexisted peacefully until the arrival of God, which brought a cataclysmic disaster to the 10th Galaxy.
Because there was usually no conflict, there were no powerful beings here capable of contending with the God. Even the Divine Emissaries were difficult to resist.
However, God seemed to have taken an interest in the resources here and did not wipe everyone out. Instead, it bestowed power, creating many God's agents and Divine Emissaries. They controlled the races of the entire galaxy through the Church, frantically plundering all kinds of resources.
"God's agent Warren? He actually found us so quickly."
King looked up into the distance; he could feel an extreme malice rapidly sweeping toward them.
"Warren? It's him!" Ivery's expression changed upon hearing the name.
"What's wrong? You know him?" King asked.
"I'm afraid no one on this planet doesn't know him—Warren the Butcher." Ivery's face turned pale.
She hadn't expected that killing just a few dozen Church members would draw Warren out.
"The title sounds quite intimidating, but my hands are also ruthless and fierce, making heads roll."
King took Ivery and jumped down from Rover's back, with Black Sperm following closely behind them.
"Why are you following me? Go take down that God's agent."
"Huh? Me?!"
Thump!
King kicked Black Sperm away, then signaled Rover to shrink in size and hide.
A few seconds later, a terrifying aura descended.
Warren floated in the air, gazing coldly at the solitary Black Sperm. "Are you the one resisting the Church?"
"I... I don't know anything. I'm just a passing monkey."
"Ooh ooh aah aah!"
Swish!
Several flashes of light streaked past, and Black Sperm's body was instantly sliced into several segments, falling to the ground.
"Boring tricks. I don't like watching monkey business."
Warren seemed to sense Rover's aura and was about to go investigate when a huge shadow suddenly loomed over him.
"You bastard, don't look down on me!"
Black Sperm's gigantified palm slammed down, but before his attack could land, he was sliced into several pieces again.
"Splitting? That's a rare ability."
Warren watched the increasing number of Black Sperm clones and couldn't help but feel interested.
'A swordsmanship expert? He's the perfect opponent for Black Sperm.'
Hiding in the shadows, King observed the battlefield. He had already had Rover lie in wait on the other side so that Warren wouldn't notice him and Ivery.
"Kid, let me show you how powerful I am."
Swish swish swish!
Countless Black Sperm clones lunged at Warren, but the latter had a look of disdain on his face.
"I'll see just how many times you can split."
Purgatory Slash!
Countless slashes instantly enveloped the area for hundreds of meters around, and all the lunging Black Sperm clones were sliced into countless tiny fragments.
The Black Sperm cells continued to split. In the blink of an eye, there were already tens of millions of Black Sperm clones around.
"I don't believe you don't have a limit!"
A cold killing intent appeared in Warren's eyes as he continuously swung the longsword in his hand, which was imbued with Divine Power.
'Hehe, this is another stubborn one just like Atomic Samurai.' King watched the battle while inwardly chuckling.
Back when they were subjugating the Monster Association, Atomic Samurai refused to believe it and frantically slashed at Black Sperm's body, eventually resulting in tens of trillions of Black Sperm clones.
'However, Divine Power still suppresses Black Sperm cells to some extent, and Warren is also somewhat different from the God's agents on Earth.'
King could sense that the split speed of the Black Sperm cells was slowing down, already showing a downward trend. But the number of split cells had already reached a terrifying figure, the endless desert was almost completely filled with Black Sperm cells.
"Not a bad ability. Taking you back to the Divine Emissary will surely be a great achievement."
Warren wasn't frightened by the scene before him. Instead, he became excited. After all, Black Sperm's individual attacking power was simply too weak. No matter how many there were, they couldn't get close to him.
Warren could feel that Black Sperm's splitting was seemingly about to reach its limit. He only needed to wait for the other party's energy to be exhausted before he could move to capture him alive.
"I told you already, don't look down on me!"
Sperm Tsunami!
"Let my tide swallow everything!"
Rumble!
A black wave composed of countless Black Sperm cells swept toward Warren with immense momentum.
"Boring move. Let me show you the power bestowed upon me by God."
Dimension: Piercing!
The longsword in Warren's hand thrust out, and a slash containing vast Divine Power pierced through the wave, creating a vacuum zone.
'This guy is a bit tough. Looks like I have to go all out, that attack just now killed quite a few cells.'
Black Sperm felt a pang of distress, he hadn't expected Warren to have such a move.
Platinum Sperm!
With a lithe physique and an antenna several meters long on his head, this was the strongest form after Black Sperm's fusion.
"Oh? You can even fuse? Let me see how your strength has changed."
Warren's eyes lit up as he looked at the newly appeared Platinum Sperm.
However, in the next second, Platinum Sperm appeared right in front of him.
Boom!
A solid punch sent the caught-off-guard Warren flying.
Platinum Sperm stood in place, admiring his own muscles. "Told you already, don't look down on me."
Dimensional Whirlwind Slash!
Whoosh!
A slash carrying a violent hurricane whistled toward him.
Platinum was Sperm unfazed, he gathered Union Power on both hands and blocked the slash.
"Interesting. It seems we can have some real fun now."
