Devouring Stars, becoming Luo Feng's golden finger

Chapter 81: Luo Feng's Ruthlessness (1/6 Seeking Subscriptions!)

"Did I just hear the name 'God of War Luo' mentioned?"

On the Huangpu River, atop the steel war base spanning the wide river, several Gods of War, covered in blood, exchanged bewildered glances.

Lei Meng, who had just returned from a deep foray into the beast tide to replenish his energy, furrowed his brow deeply, disbelief evident in his eyes.

Because he recognized Councilor Yan's voice.

Luo Feng wants to kill Yan Hai? Am I hallucinating?

Isn't Luo Feng a God of War? A God of War killing a Councilor-level powerhouse?

Despite the myriad of doubts and confusion in his mind, the imminent threat of the beast tide forced Lei Meng and the other Gods of War and martial artists to suppress their concerns and shock, focusing entirely on slaying the monsters.

Because Luo Feng single-handedly blocked the rear of the monster horde, and with Yan Hai revealing his Planet-level powerhouse status, most of the high-level Leader-class monsters fled into the deep sea, greatly reducing the pressure on the front lines.

Coupled with the strenuous assistance of Lei Meng and several other Gods of War, the number of casualties on the human side was significantly reduced.

The vast majority of the participating soldiers were merely military personnel with intermediate to advanced student-level physical fitness; the number of true martial artists was very, very small. These soldiers relied on firearms, artillery, and lasers to kill enemies, while Warrior and Warlord-level martial artists guarded them, resisting the monsters that survived the barrage of gunfire and artillery on the front lines.

God of War-level powerhouses charged at the very front. Lei Meng, equipped with the Black God Set, fearlessly plunged into the monster army to slay conspicuous and powerful targets.

Virtual World - God of War Palace.

One by one, God of War-level powerhouses materialized, gathering in the meeting hall.

They formed small groups, chatting with their familiar God of War friends.

The topics revolved entirely around Councilor Yan Hai and God of War Luo Feng.

"Did you all receive Councilor Yan Hai's distress signal?" God of War Li Kan, nicknamed '大力熊 (Da Li Xiong, Strong Bear),' asked, scratching his head.

"Indeed," the illusionist 'Katlan' said indifferently.

The other nearby Gods of War nodded slightly, their eyes flickering.

Because Councilor Yan Hai hadn't joined any major force, instead wandering around and enjoying life, and because he was relatively approachable, he knew many God of War powerhouses and had their contact information.

Several God of War powerhouses even claimed to have received guidance from Yan Hai, honoring him as their teacher.

Of course, whether this was genuine or not was another matter.

After all, apart from a very small number of God of War powerhouses with strong backing who didn't care about relationships with Councilor-level powerhouses, such as Hong's children or the children of the Third Speaker, the Ice Emperor, most Gods of War, upon encountering an opportunity to curry favor with a Councilor-level powerhouse, would undoubtedly try their best to cling to it, seeking to further their relationship.

Out of billions of people globally, only fifty-seven Planet-level powerhouses had emerged.

They were truly peak powerhouses born from hundreds of millions.

Very quickly, over two thousand people gathered within the God of War Palace, equivalent to more than half of the world's Gods of War.

Suddenly, five figures appeared in the seats at the very top.

It was—

First Speaker 'Hong,' Planet-level Tier 7 strength.

Second Speaker 'Thunder God,' Planet-level Tier 7 strength.

Third Speaker 'Ice Emperor' Mohanderson, Planet-level Tier 3.

Fourth Speaker 'Ister,' also the only Spiritual Master among the Councilors, with Planet-level Tier 2 strength.

Fifth Speaker 'Atkin,' Planet-level Tier 3.

The God of War Palace possessed over three thousand Gods of War, fifty-two Councilor-level individuals, and five Speakers.

With the appearance of the five Great Speakers, the venue immediately fell silent, everyone turning their gaze to the top.

"I just received Councilor Yan Hai's distress message and a video. Watch it yourselves first," Hong said, scanning the venue, his tone indifferent, leaving everyone somewhat puzzled.

Does Hong not seem very angry about this matter?

As Hong's words fell, the God of War Palace's artificial intelligence opened a video according to his command. The huge virtual projection screen allowed everyone to see clearly.

The video began with Councilor Yan Hai frantically fleeing towards the sky from the sea. Behind him, Luo Feng, clad in blood-red armor, also broke through the sea, hovering above the surface, coldly watching the fleeing Yan Hai.

Judging from the shooting angle, this should have been filmed by Yan Hai's aircraft at ten thousand meters high.

Therefore, the details were very clear.

"Hiss, hovering flight, has Luo Feng, this peerless genius, already broken through to the Planet-level?" The Councilors and other Gods of War watching the video, although they had suspected it, were still somewhat incredulous when the truth was presented before them.

A Planet-level at nineteen years old?

Should this talent be described as terrifying or heaven-defying?

As the video progressed, in the next moment, a streak of blood light extended from Luo Feng's body, piercing through the air, tightly binding Yan Hai, who had already fled to several thousand meters in the sky.

Until this moment, everyone except Hong and Thunder God could see clearly that the streak of blood light was a thin, thumb-thick blood-colored vine.

One end of the blood-colored vine was connected to the blood-colored armor on Luo Feng's body, as if it had grown naturally.

"Big brother, is that the Moya Vine?" Thunder God, who hadn't seen the video yet, couldn't help but speak.

"Indeed," Hong nodded slightly, but he didn't intend to explain.

Thunder God merely exclaimed in amazement and envy, "This kid, his luck is so good, he even encountered such a rare cosmic plant life, tsk tsk."

Thunder God paused after his exclamation, clearly not intending to explain what the Moya Vine was.

This disappointed the other three Speakers, Councilors, and God of War powerhouses who were preparing to listen to an explanation.

Regarding many hidden secrets on Earth, Hong and Thunder God knew the most.

The video continued.

Yan Hai, bound by the Moya Vine, was hurled fiercely towards the sea in the next moment. At extreme speed, he collided with the steel-like surface of the sea, creating a deafening sound.

This caused almost everyone in the God of War Palace to twitch their eyelids, unable to resist swallowing their saliva.

What followed was a horrifying and unbearable whipping.

Until Yan Hai, in despair and unwillingness, turned into a pile of minced meat. The Black God Set that enveloped his body released its recognition and transformed into a pair of black gloves. Yan Hai's corpse, almost turned into a pile of minced meat, 'flowed' into the ocean, devoured by countless low-intelligence, low-level monsters, instantly disappearing without a trace, not even a scrap remaining.

And as the only 'spectator' in the video background, Luo Feng, clad in blood-red armor, merely watched coldly throughout the entire process, without any fluctuation.

The video ended here.

The God of War Palace's meeting hall was silent.

Except for Hong and Thunder God, everyone was frightened by Luo Feng's cruel and ruthless killing methods.

Yan Hai was a powerful Planet-level Tier 2 martial artist, who had previously competed with 'Atkin' for the position of Fifth Speaker. Although he ultimately failed in the competition, his strength was beyond doubt.

If Hong and Thunder God were the first echelon of Planet-level powerhouses, the Third Speaker, Ice Emperor, the Fourth Speaker, Ister, and the Fifth Speaker, Atkin, were the second echelon.

Then Yan Hai was among the top of the third echelon. This group of about ten people were either Planet-level Tier 2 powerhouses like Jia Yi, or Planet-level Tier 1 peak powerhouses with unique skills, such as Yao Rao, Beast, and Iceberg.

The fourth echelon was those remaining, about forty Planet-level Tier 1 ordinary Councilors. The five Great Inspectors of the Limit Martial Hall were at this level.

A peak powerhouse second only to the five Great Speakers was tortured to death like this—this was simply shocking.

"Too cruel, I suggest immediately capturing Luo Feng and executing him!" Fifth Speaker Atkin's tone was filled with anger.

With Atkin's opening statement, the somewhat suffocating meeting hall seemed to have its air circulating again. Some Councilors and Gods of War responded to Atkin's decision.

"Councilor Yan Hai was a hero who made significant contributions to humanity, but now he has been killed so cruelly. This Luo Feng is simply... simply lawless!. I, Li Yao, agree with Councilor Atkin's judgment!"

Among the Gods of War below, Li Yao said through gritted teeth, a hint of hatred flashing in his eyes.

He and Yan Hai had a very deep friendship during the Great Nirvana period. At that time, Li Yao was sinister, selfish, and cruel, without any friends or family, but he and Yan Hai's personalities resonated, and their relationship was similar to a friendship between generations, and also similar to a father and son.

Some of the girls provided for Yan Hai's entertainment were collected by Li Yao from around the world with the help of Venina's Polenas family forces.

Because of this, Li Yao felt the most anger towards Yan Hai's death.

To the extent that even though there was a vast difference in strength between him and Luo Feng, Li Yao still chose to speak out. Of course, there was also the reason that Fifth Speaker Atkin took the lead.

As for why Atkin, who clearly had no small conflicts with Yan Hai, suddenly spoke out for Yan Hai?

Some of the Councilors and Gods of War who knew Atkin's selfish and jealous nature understood clearly.

It was simply because they saw Luo Feng, this peerless genius, rising too quickly. If Luo Feng didn't die now, Atkin's position as Fifth Speaker would definitely not be secure.

The five Great Speakers determined the future destiny of billions of humans on Earth, and their power could be described as immense. How could Atkin be willing to give up the enormous power and status he held to become an ordinary Councilor?

"Execute Luo Feng?" Hong scanned the meeting hall, especially lingering for a moment on the Councilors and Gods of War who were standing up for Yan Hai, a hint of coldness flashing in the depths of his eyes.

There was one thing he hadn't told these people, and that was that Luo Feng had sent him detailed evidence of Yan Hai's crimes.

And this evidence included not only Yan Hai, but also one Speaker, five Councilors, and three hundred and fifty-six Gods of War!!

Hong wasn't too surprised to receive this evidence, because as the top leader, he knew some things.

Especially some foreign Gods of War and Councilor powerhouses who were like dictatorial local emperors.

In many foreign places, the land was sparsely populated, and the number of monsters far outnumbered the number of humans. The number of Councilor-level powerhouses and Gods of War could only barely guard a small piece of living territory, and Gods of War would occasionally fall.
