God-Tier Extraction Talent: Reincarnated in a Game-like World! Chapter 616: Nuclear Weapon
Previously on God-Tier Extraction Talent: Reincarnated in a Game-like World!...
Hearing those words, several nearby officers immediately turned toward her.
"Miss Lilith, her abilities are extremely strange. It would be better to let the mechanical forces continue wearing her down..."
"No need." Lilith coldly interrupted them.
"No matter how fast she is, she’s still only one person. I’ll personally cut off her head."
As her words fell, crimson flames instantly erupted around Lilith’s body.
The violent heat distorted the surrounding air as waves of crimson fire surged upward like a blazing inferno. The overwhelming aura that erupted from her body caused countless nearby soldiers to instinctively retreat several steps, while the oppressive pressure sweeping across the command platform made even experienced officers feel their breathing become difficult.
The metal platform beneath her feet violently caved inward.
Boom!
Like a blazing cannonball, she shot into the sky before streaking across the battlefield toward Sarah.
Seeing one of Crimson Star’s greatest young powerhouses personally enter the battlefield, countless Edgeburn soldiers who had been overwhelmed by Sarah’s massacre immediately erupted into cheers.
"It’s Miss Lilith!"
"She’s finally making her move!"
"That monster is finished!"
Hope that had nearly been extinguished rapidly reignited throughout the army as countless pairs of eyes followed the crimson streak racing through the sky.
"Hey!"
Lilith’s voice boomed across the battlefield like thunder.
"Why don’t you pick on someone your own size!"
Blazing crimson flames rapidly condensed within her hands before eventually forming an enormous flaming greatsword several meters long.
The surrounding temperature rose sharply as the sword radiated waves of scorching heat, causing even the air around its blade to shimmer violently.
Gripping the hilt with both hands, she descended from the sky carrying enough force to cleave apart an entire city wall.
However, just before her attack could be unleashed, Sarah suddenly raised her head.
Their eyes briefly met in midair.
All Lilith saw was a pair of emotionless crimson eyes.
They were calm.
Too calm.
There was neither killing intent nor contempt within them.
It was as though Sarah had never regarded her as an opponent from the very beginning.
For the first time since entering the battlefield, an inexplicable sense of danger instinctively surged through Lilith’s entire body.
The next instant, Sarah disappeared.
Lilith’s pupils violently contracted.
Before she could even comprehend what had happened, the battlefield before her had already become empty.
Her instincts frantically warned her that death was approaching, yet no matter how she expanded her senses, she couldn’t detect Sarah’s presence anywhere.
A faint, icy sensation spread across her waist.
Sarah had somehow appeared behind her.
In her right hand was a slender blade condensed entirely from blood.
Not a single drop of blood stained its edge. Lilith remained frozen in midair.
"How... is this possible..."
A thin crimson line slowly appeared across her waist.
The next moment...
Puchi!!
Lilith’s body was cleanly severed into two at the waist.
Blood poured down like torrential rain. She had not even managed to release her attack before every trace of life left her body.
The two halves of her corpse fell from the sky before crashing heavily onto the battlefield.
Bang!
Bang!
The entire battlefield seemed to fall into absolute silence.
The cheers that had filled the battlefield only moments earlier vanished completely.
Countless Edgeburn soldiers stood rooted to the ground, their eyes fixed upon the two halves of Lilith’s corpse.
Some forgot to breathe. Others subconsciously loosened their grip as weapons slipped from trembling hands and crashed onto the blood soaked ground.
No one could accept what they had just witnessed. One of the Valerian Kingdom’s youngest guild masters and powerhouses had failed to withstand even a single move.
In fact, they hadn’t even truly seen how Sarah attacked.
The only thing anyone had witnessed was Lilith charging forward with overwhelming momentum before inexplicably falling from the sky in two separate pieces.
Further behind the Edgeburn army, General Everest’s eyes widened instantly.
He stared fixedly at Sarah’s figure suspended in midair as unconcealable shock appeared across his face for the very first time.
He did not immediately order a retreat. He carefully observed every one of Sarah’s movements.
Skin so pale it was devoid of all color.
Crimson eyes.
Speed so fast it was nearly impossible for the naked eye to follow.
The bizarre ability to freely manipulate blood.
And that cold aura that seemed naturally superior to all ordinary life.
Those characteristics continuously intertwined within Everest’s mind.
Fragments of records he had once studied deep within the Empire’s restricted military libraries gradually resurfaced one after another.
Descriptions that many scholars had long dismissed as exaggerated myths now perfectly overlapped with the woman standing before him.
Gradually, a name that had existed only within ancient records and forgotten legends slowly surfaced from the depths of his memory.
Everest’s expression changed instantly.
"So that’s it. No wonder she possesses such power."
One of the officers beside him couldn’t help asking,
"General... do you know what she is?"
Everest remained silent for a moment. Then he slowly spoke a word that was unfamiliar to everyone around him but instinctively inspired fear.
"She isn’t human. She is... a vampire."
The moment those words were spoken, the entire command platform fell into dead silence.
The expressions of several officers changed immediately.
"A vampire?"
"Isn’t that race nothing more than a legend?"
"I always thought they had gone extinct long ago..."
"I’ve only ever seen records of them in the Empire’s oldest archives..."
Everyone turned toward Sarah standing upon the battlefield.
The way they looked at her had completely changed.
Previously, although they had acknowledged Sarah’s terrifying strength, they still believed she was merely a human powerhouse possessing some unique class or hidden bloodline.
But now, after learning that the woman before them was very likely a genuine vampire, an uncontrollable wave of fear rapidly spread throughout the entire army.
Legendary vampires.
Beings possessing nearly immortal lives.
Capable of absorbing blood to restore their wounds.
Far faster than ordinary lifeforms.
Ancient records described them not as ordinary races but as walking calamities capable of turning entire battlefields into feeding grounds.
And the more people who died upon a battlefield...
The more blood they could manipulate...
The more terrifying their power became.
At this moment, thousands of corpses already littered the battlefield.
Rivers of blood flowing between the shattered ruins continuously gathered beneath Sarah’s feet.
For a vampire capable of controlling blood, this was not a battlefield. It was her domain!
An officer asked with a pale face,
"General, if she truly is a vampire, how are we supposed to kill her? Sending more soldiers will only provide her with even more blood."
"Ordinary artillery probably can’t even hit her."
Everest did not answer immediately. He stared at the slender figure floating above the sea of corpses and blood in the distance, his gaze growing colder and colder.
A moment later, he slowly turned around and looked toward the senior officers behind him.
"Pass down my orders. Have every frontline unit withdraw immediately."
The crowd froze upon hearing those words.
However, before any of them could feel relieved, Everest’s next command caused every expression to stiffen.
"Activate the nuclear bomb," Everest said coldly. "Erase her, along with the entire western battlefield."
