At the exact same moment Forti completed his blocking stance.
In front of him, in the center of the hard mahogany desk, a bare, fair foot appeared out of thin air and then stepped down gently.
"Crack... BOOM!!!"
No charging, no warning.
The instant that small foot landed, the solid wood tabletop, over ten centimeters thick, was struck as if by a ten-thousand-ton boulder. Before it could even let out a groan, it began to shatter, collapse, and turn into powder inch by inch in a radial pattern from the point of contact!
Before the wood chips could even rise, they were slammed outward by the circular shockwave that immediately followed!
Everywhere the shockwave passed, everything in the reception room—chairs, coffee tables, decorations, even the paintings on the walls—was instantly shredded, mangled, and then launched toward the walls like shrapnel!
The entire wall dented inward, twisting and letting out an overburdened groan!
Dust and debris poured down like a waterfall!
At the center of the swirling wood dust and distorted light, Lilith, who had crushed the desk, finally became clear for a single frame.
She was still wearing that simple black dress, her snow-white hair dancing wildly behind her like blooming white flames in the violent airflow.
There was no expression on her delicate face, only those vertical pupils that had turned into rubies, coldly locked onto the beast-like werewolf in front of her.
At the very moment the surrounding powdered tabletop completely collapsed, her other foot slammed into the center of Forti's crossed, blocking arms!
At the moment of contact.
Time seemed to stretch.
Forti's werewolf-transformed red-gold pupils suddenly shrank to pinpoints!
He felt his white Bone Armor, which was strong enough to withstand a direct hit from a Main Battle Tank's Armor-piercing Shell, let out a tooth-aching groan the instant it touched that small foot!
A terrifying force, so tyrannical it defied all reason, surged through his arms, bones, and muscles, frantically flooding his entire body!
It wasn't just simple impact force; it was a violent venting of pure mass and kinetic energy!
Forti only had time to let out a short grunt before his massive five-meter-tall werewolf body, hit head-on like it was struck by a supersonic meteorite, disappeared without any resistance.
No, not disappeared.
He was sent flying backward by that irresistible force at Speeds exceeding the Speed of sound!
"BOOM——!!!!!!"
The front wall of the reception room, already riddled with cracks and teetering, was completely pierced through at this moment!
A giant circular hole with jagged edges and a diameter of over six meters appeared out of thin air, with rubble and rebar spraying outward like a fountain!
The Werewolf Tyrant's figure turned into a blurred dark-red streamline, tearing through the air on a nearly horizontal trajectory and smashing through every obstacle in its path.
Carrying more and more rubble and dust, it formed a terrifying trail of destruction, charging straight toward the perimeter of the base!
Inside the base, whether it was the soldiers on patrol or members going about their daily work, everyone felt the ground beneath their feet shake violently! Immediately after, a series of dull, rapid explosions reached their ears, so fast they were indistinguishable from one another!
They looked up in shock, only to see a blurred dark-red shadow, mixed with chunks of reinforced concrete and billowing dust, howling out from the depths of the base.
With unstoppable force, it brutally smashed through at least four internal walls, and finally—
"THOOM——!!!!!!!!!"
A heavy, shocking impact far louder than any of the previous sounds came from the direction of the base's main gate!
That brand-new alloy gate, replaced less than three days ago, thick and sturdy, symbolizing the majesty of Apocalypse.
Its center was suddenly dented inward, twisted, and torn, as if hit head-on by a giant battering ram!
A shocking hole appeared, the metal at the edges twisted into hideous curls from being rapidly melted by high heat and then cooled!
The dark-red shadow passed through the hole without stopping, plowing a deep trench dozens of meters long in the open ground outside the gate, then continued flying toward the distant City ruins without slowing down!
Only then did the sharp sonic boom and the delayed gale sweep through the entire interior of the base! Dust filled the air, debris flew everywhere, and everyone was stunned by this sudden, terrifying turn of events, instinctively raising their arms to block the oncoming shockwave and debris.
At the edge of the ruins of the reception room... or what used to be the reception room.
Lilith slowly withdrew the foot she had kicked out, her bare foot lightly touching the messy ground.
The violent airflow made her skirt flutter loudly, and her snow-white hair slowly settled amidst the dust.
She didn't even look at the path of destruction Forti had been forced through.
She just tilted her head slightly, her ruby-like vertical pupils coldly looking toward the City ruins, where the dark-red werewolf had finally fallen.
Her petite body stood still amidst the ruins and dust.
Yet around her, an aura of absolute dominance and pressure permeated the air, causing it to freeze.
It was as if the one she had just kicked away wasn't an SSS-Rank Hunter transformed into a terrifying werewolf, but merely an eyesore of a bug.
In the distant City ruins, dust rose into the sky and lingered for a long time.
Silence.
A deathly silence enveloped the Apocalypse Base, which had just undergone an internal storm.
Only the wailing of the wind and the faint, gradually clearing low growls of pain and rage from the distance could be heard.
The great battle seemed to have only just begun...Bat is so cute (๑＞ڡ＜)☆ Meow~
