Chapter 1588: God of War

Above the boundless ocean.

A figure in a research robe flashed across the sky like a meteor!

Without any vehicle or flight device, Yang Xiao could hover and fly simply by changing his own magnetic field to repel the Earth’s magnetic field. The tool he had just used to influence the meeting thousands of miles away was merely an old-fashioned mobile phone held in his hand.

After experiencing a nuclear explosion head-on and inadvertently capturing the soul magnetic field of an entire city, Yang Xiao’s power had grown to a terrifying level. Once only able to control some metal and operate electrical switches, he had now become the absolute king of modern warfare.

The burden on Yang Xiao’s shoulders was heavy right now, because he knew that he was the only person in the world who might be able to save Chen Ling and the others...

Since Chen Ling had entrusted the arduous task of "opening the door" to them, he had to open it.

No matter what the cost...

No matter how many people he had to kill.

The ocean was vast, and the distance between countries was great; even for Yang Xiao, it would take a lot of time... Fortunately, he had set off in advance, so by the time it was determined he needed to go to the American laboratory, he had actually already flown half the distance.

The ocean receded beneath him, and after an unknown amount of time, the outline of the coastline appeared in the distance.

……

United States, Army Research Laboratory.

The beeping of modern instruments, mixed with the rumbling from the underground laboratory, echoed through the corridors. Tall figures in lab coats and Western military uniforms hurried back and forth.

“Dr. Wayne, you only have five days left... Within five days, we must see new biological weapons deployed to the battlefield,” the tall officer said in a deep voice, his tone devoid of any politeness, carrying only cold pressure.

“Five days? No, five days is far from enough!” The doctor was stunned and immediately shook his head.

“Not enough? If it’s not enough, we’ll all die together!” The officer snorted coldly. “Do you know that those African and Asian countries are acting like they’re crazy? Our existing weapons can no longer defend against their attacks at all... If there are no new biological weapons, the next one to be conquered will be California!”

“No! You don’t understand at all. Some of our top research equipment has already failed! In terms of R&D, we have no advantage over those damn developing countries! Even if we develop it, they will soon find a way to solve it!”

“Dr. Wayne! Your primary task is to create new weapons! Whether these weapons will be cracked is not something to worry about right now!!”

The officer was about to say something more when a sharp alarm sounded from every corner of the laboratory!

Scarlet lights flashed rapidly. The officer’s expression changed, and he immediately turned to walk out the door!

But the next second, everything returned to normal.

“Damn it!! Someone explain what happened?!”

“Our radar just detected a high-speed object approaching. We thought it was a missile and were preparing to intercept... but it disappeared in the next second, and the radar returned to normal.”

“Equipment failure?”

“It’s not clear yet...”

“Then go and check it out for me!! You idiots!!”

Numerous figures hurried through the laboratory, attempting to contact nearby military airfields via communication equipment to confirm the situation, but the signals they sent were like stones sinking into the sea, with no response...

For some reason, a bad premonition suddenly rose in the officer’s heart.

Just then, he saw from the corner of his eye that a screw next to his desk was trembling slightly, then rotating on its own, as if trying to detach from the table... Immediately after, low roars sounded from the walls in all directions!!

“……what？”

Just as the officer was bewildered, hideous cracks suddenly spread across the ceiling and all the walls. The steel structures originally used to reinforce the laboratory were now being pried open by some invisible hand, and a large amount of rubble poured down from the ceiling!

*Boom*—!!!!

In a deafening roar, the roof of the entire laboratory building was ripped off, as if some super-large monster had directly snapped the entire building in two. At the same time, all small metal objects within sight began to float uncontrollably toward the sky!

Terrified cries rang out from every corner of the laboratory. Those who didn't know what was happening looked blankly at the sky...

A figure in a white research robe hovered in the air like a god, auroras flashing silently in their pupils.

“Where is the person... who made the Otherworld Tail Wave missile?”

Yang Xiao asked in fluent English.

The officer was dumbfounded.

But he reacted in the next second and roared:

“Fire!!”

*Da-da-da-da-da*—

Dense gunfire erupted from the laboratory building with its roof ripped off. This laboratory, which had the strongest armed forces in the United States, launched a counterattack at this moment. A dense rain of bullets poured into the sky, surging toward the hovering figure.

But Yang Xiao just raised his hand slightly, and the bullets in the sky stopped in mid-air, forming a wall of steel with great visual impact.

*Whoosh*—!!!

At the same time, several anti-aircraft missiles flying from nowhere, dragging long tails, approached Yang Xiao rapidly.

Yang Xiao slowly swept his gaze over these missiles and raised his hand gently, easily changing their flight paths. They collided and exploded in the air, and several huge, scorching fireballs erupted!!

Terrifying heat waves swept through the air. Yang Xiao’s face was half-bright and half-dark under the reflection of the blinding fire behind him, with only the aurora flowing eternally.

Intercepting bullets with his gaze and extinguishing missiles with a wave of his hand—the white-clad figure now appeared infinitely close to a monster in the eyes of everyone in the laboratory...

And as Yang Xiao’s thoughts shifted, the wall of bullets in front of him splashed back toward the laboratory building like raindrops. Each bullet fell precisely into the chest of a figure in military uniform, and countless blood flowers bloomed in succession!

Ten people, fifty people, a hundred people...

In just a few seconds, hundreds of lives had died at Yang Xiao’s hands. As the countdown for the missiles in the distance to be launched again was transmitted to Yang Xiao via electrical signals, he closed his eyes helplessly and waved his hand gently again...

Those missiles that had not yet been launched were forcibly detonated in advance. In an instant, the violent firelight was like a pillar of God, directly submerging several nearby military bases!!

At this moment, the white-clad figure with auroras flowing in his eyes was like a god of death descending into the flames of war.
