The team that had been sent out was most likely going to fail before they could reach their target.
All over the world, the dormant mutated creatures began to awaken, locking onto the human gathering places.
This team had passed by where a mutated creature had been; no one had expected this.
When that mutated creature had awoken, everyone felt waves of despair in their hearts.
Even within the tanks, they could sense the energy coming from the mutated creature's body. Just the aura it gave off caused them to tremble, feeling great fear in their hearts.
They felt great despair and did not have any illusions of hope.
Strictly speaking, this mutated creature was not targeting them, but just the terrifying aura it gave off was enough to suppress them.
Right now, everyone could feel the mutating energy cover them.
Within the tanks, everyone raised their arms and found that their bodies were going through changes.
It looked incredibly terrifying.
They could sense the changes in their bodies and could sense themselves heading towards death, but they could not do anything about it.
"It's over…"
Within the tanks, everyone closed their eyes, waiting for the end.
Even now, humanity had not found a way to deal with the mutations from the mutated creatures' aura.
Currently, the only thing they had found effective against it was the Protagonist's power.
However, they had not even found him yet, so how could they ask him for help?
Behind them, roars continuously sounded out.
"Mutant Creature Number 3 near the industrial park is also awakening…"
Underground, everyone could clearly see that scene through the satellite.
They could see massive amounts of black fog billowing, seeming like it was covering the world.
Within it, the terrifying massive beast roared as it awakened.
Seeing this scene, everyone's expressions became grave.
"Mutant Creature Number 3 is estimated to fully awaken in half an hour…"
A robotic voice sounded out from the machine in front of the screen, "According to the extrapolation from the data, in one hour, Mutant Creature Number 3 will begin to attack. Please make preparations."
The robotic voice sounded out, causing everyone's expressions to become even more grim.
"Impossible…"
In front of the screen, the elder's expression was extremely grim, not knowing what to say.
When he received the news from the other places, he had prepared himself mentally.
However, even so, he did not expect this day to arrive so quickly.
It was as if the mutated creatures all over the world had planned ahead of time. After the first mutated creature awakened, they began to all awaken one after another.
"The team sent to contact the Protagonist happens to be within the range of an awakening mutated creature and is being affected by it…"
The robot continued to speak emotionlessly, "It is estimated that after five minutes, all of them will fall…"
This was another piece of bad news.
However, after hearing this, the elder's expression did not change anymore.
By now, there was enough bad news.
Given how much bad news there was already, this was no longer a big deal.
Compared to the demise of humanity, what did a small team matter?
The elder could not help but sigh as he thought of various things.
"Five minutes, eh?"
Sitting there, he took out a pocket watch and looked at it.
The pocket watch continued to tick as if it was counting down to their deaths.
Soon, two minutes had passed.
On the screen, the mutated creature's awakening became more and more evident.
Massive aura spread out, filling the surroundings with black fog.
After some time, the elder deeply breathed in and once again looked at the screen.
However, seeing the scene on the screen, he could not help but stare.
Brilliant light appeared on the screen, covering the awakening mutated creature.
Under the light, all darkness seemed to dissipate, and the mutated creature's mutating aura was also scattered.
"An unknown energy has been detected. The analysis suggests that it comes from the Protagonist," the robotic voice once again sounded out.
"The Protagonist…"
The elder sat up and stared at the light on the screen with wide eyes.
It was not just him.
All over the world, everyone was staring at their screens.
During the critical moment of the mutated creature's awakening, the Protagonist had finally acted.
Was he going to stop the mutated creature from awakening or even fight against it?
Everyone thought the same thing and began to wait in anticipation.
Neither side was a simple existence.
One came from a high-level civilization, could survive and adapt in any environment, and quickly evolve.
The other was the ultimate human, the Protagonist who had godly powers.
The clash between the two would definitely be quite terrifying.
What would the outcome be?
No one knew.
However, right now, looking at the scene on their screens, they could not help but feel excited.
What if the Protagonist succeeded?
From his previous battles, the Protagonist had never been defeated before. No matter how powerful his enemy was, he would directly face them and destroy them.
Would he be able to create another miracle against this mutated creature?
Of course, many people felt quite pessimistic.
These mutated creatures had incredible evolutionary abilities, and in the past, human civilization had never been able to suppress these monsters and had instead been suppressed.
Given the mutated creatures' ridiculous evolution abilities, as long as they were not immediately killed, they would become stronger and stronger.
The Protagonist's strength was indeed powerful, and he might be able to suppress the mutated creatures.
But so what?
If he could not immediately kill them and could only suppress them, he would just be helping them gradually become stronger.
As time went on, he would become exhausted.
As such, many people felt quite pessimistic.
Nevertheless, everyone continued to watch on in anticipation.
No matter what the outcome was, this would definitely be a spectacular and majestic battle.
Both sides had the power to easily destroy a city.
What would the situation be like when they began to fight?
"Interesting, how interesting…"
Within a room underground, a Kar person held a bottle of juice as he looked at the scene on the screen intently. He gave an interested smile as he said, "A human with the power to rip apart a Nothingness Beast, against a mutated creature that has unlimited evolution: Who will win?
"I really am looking forward to this. Also, I wonder if my fellow Kar person will survive…"
From when the Nothingness Beast from before had appeared, he knew that another Kar person was definitely there.
The Nothingness Beasts were the greatest crystallization of the Kar civilization's technology. It contained all kinds of Kar techniques, as well as the genes of Star Beasts.
In fact, even if one obtained those things, if their foundation was not up to scratch, they still would not be able to create a Nothingness Beast.
As such, the existence of the Nothingness Beast meant that there was another Kar person there.
He just wondered who it was.
As the Kar person watched on, the situation began to change.
"Have we… been saved?"
Within the tanks, the remaining people were shocked awake.
A warm feeling spread from the surroundings as light covered them.
Under the divine skill's light, their bodies began to stabilize as the mutations dissipated.
Sensing this, they stared for a while before coming to their senses.
"It's the Protagonist!"
"Did the Protagonist act?"
They quickly reacted, and even though they could not see the situation outside, they immediately guessed what was happening.
In the current world, the only thing that could stop the mutation was the Protagonist.
It was just that this light…
They felt quite confused and walked out of the tanks, looking outside.
They did this very carefully.
Even though this city in front of them had become ruins, it was not safe.
There were a large number of mutated lifeforms everywhere, including Corpse People.
Once they left the tanks, ordinary humans would not be able to do much.
As such, they moved incredibly carefully. If they saw any threats, they would immediately retreat within the tanks.
However, they saw that the surroundings were incredibly peaceful.
Suffocatingly peaceful.
All around them, rays of light covered the entire city.
Golden light descended from the sky, dyeing the sky a golden color, making it look holy and majestic.
Seeing this scene, everyone was stunned and stared.
"This…"
Elsewhere, Liu Na and Karos were also dumbfounded.
In front of the interface, large amounts of darkness retreated, replaced by light.
A white area appeared at their location, quickly spreading out and covering the entire city.
Not only this, the two of them could clearly see the white energy continuing to spread out, suppressing the darkness and creating a protective barrier.
"Can a single person's power really do such a thing?"
Seeing this, Karos was stupefied and did not know what to say.
Covering such a large area with one's own strength, and even suppressing the mutated creature's power—this required incredible power.
Karos could not even imagine what kind of terrifying power could do such a thing.
"He went…"
Seeing this, Liu Na let out a sigh of relief and no longer felt complicated.
"Can you adjust the scene?" she looked at Karos as she said, "I want to see the situation over there."
"Alright," Karos nodded and agreed.
Following this, the scene changed before stopping at a certain place.
On a desolate field, a boy's figure slowly appeared.
He seemed to have appeared out of nowhere and was dressed in white robes.
Faint golden sunlight fell on the boy's body, making him look godly.
Chen Heng walked in the wilderness, listening to the cries of the people in the distance.
Large numbers of prayers came continuously, accompanied by faith threads and faith energy.
Every moment, large amounts of faith energy were being converted into divine energy.
At that moment, Chen Heng could sense the changes in his body.
Under the influence of the divine energy, his body's constitution was continuously ascending, reaching a new level.
From the World of God's standards, his strength would be at the Fourth Ring.
Of course, this was just a rough estimate.
After all, Chen Heng did not know much about the strength systems in the World of Gods.
Moreover, this strength was only temporary.
As time went on, his strength would continuously increase.
As large amounts of faith energy flowed into his body, his divine energy felt boundless.
That was why he had the confidence to come here.
Chen Heng could sense that in the abyss ahead, the dormant existence was quickly awakening.
After being stimulated by Chen Heng's power, its reaction was very evident, and it began to awaken even faster.
In response, Chen Heng was not too startled and silently stood there, waiting for the mutated creature to fully awaken.
As he watched on, a black fog began to rush out with terrifying momentum.
"Roarr!"
A roar sounded out as an enormous figure appeared.
