Traveling Through Multiple Realms: The Supporting Character's Counterattack

Chapter 56 Ghost-Level Disaster

One-Punch Man World.

The sky in the northern part of G City, once a symbol of prosperity and peace, is now stained gray-black by thick smoke and fear.

A gigantic, mountain-like elephant-like monster with ominous gray-white skin and blood-red eyes is using its destructive power to gradually crush this modern metropolis into ruins.

"Evil humans! Bear the wrath of those enslaved, whipped, and imprisoned in this confined space!"

The elephant-like monster let out a deafening roar, its voice a mixture of wild beast howls and a twisted resentment.

With each swing of its trunk, as thick as a giant pillar, it creates a piercing sonic boom, easily tearing and smashing reinforced concrete buildings like paper toys.

The affected cars were blown away and exploded like matchboxes, turning into fireballs.

"A weirdo! He's a weirdo!"

"Run! Help!"

"Where are the heroes? Where are they?!"

On the streets, panicked crowds scattered like a tide, their cries, screams, and the roar of collapsing buildings weaving together into a symphony of despair.

The piercing evacuation sirens blared throughout the city, adding to the apocalyptic panic.

"An elephant-shaped monster has appeared in G City! Preliminary assessment of the disaster level: Tiger! Residents of G City and surrounding areas are advised to immediately evacuate to shelters! Again, disaster level: Tiger..."

The broadcast echoed in the tense atmosphere.

In City A, at the Hero Association headquarters, the command center was in a state of chaos.

On the large screen, live footage of the chaotic scene at the disaster site in G City was being transmitted.

A pretty but pale-faced female operator put down her communicator and urgently reported, "Rank A's second-in-command, Iai-an; third-in-command, Okamai Tachi; and fourth-in-command, Samurai Drill, are on their way to the scene and will arrive soon!"

A slight commotion and a sigh of relief rippled through the command room.

"Excellent! They are Atomic Samurai's three top disciples!"

"With them here, the Tiger-level monster should be suppressed quickly!"

"After all, G City is the headquarters of the Atomic Style Dojo. Even if they can't take it down immediately, Mr. Atomic Samurai will arrive in time!"

The staff members were buzzing with excitement, their eyes glued to the screen, anticipating the familiar scene of victory.

At the scene in G City, a beautiful female reporter known for her daring was risking her life to report live. Her voice came through the camera, trying to calm the public: "Dear viewers, please look, the monster's destructive power is astonishing! But please don't panic excessively, and take evacuation measures! Our guardians of G City, the disciples of Mr. Atomic Samurai, have arrived, and we believe the disaster will be quelled soon!"

However, an accident occurred.

On the screen, the elephant-like monster seemed to be attracted by the reporter's voice. Its massive body suddenly turned around, and its crimson pupils locked onto the tiny figure.

"Humanity... shall be annihilated!"

A chilling roar erupted, and the enormous elephant trunk, like a terrifying whip, tore through the air with a destructive howl, lashing towards the beautiful reporter.

The aura of death instantly enveloped her, freezing her in place, her scream caught in her throat.

At the critical moment!

"Iaijutsu!"

A cold, sharp blade flashed by like lightning, so fast it seemed to cleave space itself.

Blood splattered as the fatal elephant trunk snapped off, crashing heavily to the ground and causing it to tremble.

A young samurai, clad in steel armor, wielding a katana, and with sharp eyes, stood in front of the terrified reporter, staring intently at the strange man.

It was none other than the second-ranked A-class hero who had arrived—Iai-an!

Almost simultaneously, another figure rushed towards the monster's main body like a whirlwind.

"Damn monster! Take this—Drill Explosion!"

Rank A, fourth place, Samurai Drill roared, his specially made drill-shaped longsword spinning at high speed, carrying an invincible aura, as he fiercely stabbed at the side of the elephant monster.

"Sizzle sizzle—!"

However, the anticipated scene of the body being pierced through did not appear.

The drill bit made contact with the monster's skin, sparking blinding sparks and producing a tooth-grinding metallic scraping sound, but leaving only a white mark.

"What?! Such a tough defense!"

Samurai Drill's expression changed drastically.

"Be careful!"

A voice that was neither clearly male nor female rang out, followed by a hurried reminder from Qiu Wu Taidao, the third-ranked A-level hero.

But it was too late!

The elephant monster, in pain, let out an angry roar, raised its massive elephant legs, and with immense force, stomped down on the warrior's drill.

"boom--!!!"

The earth shook violently, debris flew everywhere, and a huge crater appeared in the spot.

The samurai drill barely dodged the fatal blow at the last moment, but was also shaken by the shockwave, leaving it battered and bruised.

The three A-level heroes quickly regrouped, their eyes fixed on the enormous creature before them, their faces showing unprecedented solemnity.

"This guy is definitely not an ordinary Tiger-level monster!"

Iai-an gripped the hilt of his sword and said in a deep voice.

In just one exchange, they felt the opponent's terrifying defensive power and strength, which far exceeded their expectations.

"Humanity...to be wiped out...all of them..."

The elephant monster's crimson eyes swept over the three of them, and the granulation tissue at the severed trunk wound writhed wildly, regenerating almost completely in just a few breaths.

It raised its nose again and launched a ferocious attack on the three of them.

Iai-an's Iai-zan is as fast as lightning, repeatedly attempting to sever the elephant's trunk or attack its joints; Okamai Tachi's twin swords dance like the wind, searching for gaps in his defense; and Samurai Drill, relying on the penetrating power of his drill sword, launches a relentless barrage of attacks.

Sword flashes, sparks, and shockwaves raged across the battlefield, causing even more thorough destruction to the surrounding buildings.

The fierce battle lasted for more than ten minutes, turning large areas of the city into scorched earth.

However, the gap in strength is brutal.

The elephant monster's skin is incredibly tough, and its strength is overwhelming.

Iai-an's sword was unlikely to inflict fatal wounds, the samurai drill's drilling was of little effect, and the agility of the Okamai katana was pale in the face of absolute power.

Finally, in a full-force collision, the samurai drill's drill sword was violently knocked away by the elephant's trunk, and he himself was sent flying backward, spitting out blood.

In her attempt to rescue the elephant, Qiu Wu's weapon was caught in its trunk. The immense force flung her and her weapon into a building, leaving her fate unknown.

Iaian fought desperately and slashed out, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound on the elephant monster's forehead. However, the monster knocked him away, and his katana fell heavily to the ground, where he lost consciousness.

Amidst the ruins, Atomic Samurai's three most prized disciples all fell.

The elephant-like monster roared to the sky, proclaiming its victory, and then strode forward with earth-shaking steps, continuing its destructive revelry into the depths of the city.

In City A, at the headquarters of the Hero Association, a deathly silence fell.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene of devastation on the surveillance footage, the three figures lying motionless on the ground, and the enormous monster that continued to wreak havoc.

"The Atom...the Atom Three Musketeers have actually been defeated?!"

Someone uttered this unbelievable fact, their voice trembling.

"Quickly! Contact Mr. Atomic Warrior!"

The person in charge suddenly came to his senses and shouted hoarsely.

"Unable to contact him! Mr. Atomic Samurai is attending a tea party hosted by the Sword Saint Association. His phone is switched off, and the location is confidential!"

The correspondent's answer plunged everyone's hearts into despair.

"Immediately update the disaster level! Reassessed as... Demon level! Repeat, the G City monster disaster level has been upgraded to Demon!"

The person in charge practically shouted the order, "Immediately contact all S-class heroes near G City who might be able to arrive! Hurry!"

The command center instantly descended into even greater chaos and panic.

A "ghost-level disaster" means a crisis that could cause a city to stop functioning or even be destroyed!

Where are the top heroes who can turn the tide at this moment?

The sky over G City grew increasingly gloomy, as if foreshadowing a deeper despair.
