Dragon Transformation in the Apocalypse

Chapter 545 Mysterious Man

The battle was intense from the start, and more than an hour had passed in the blink of an eye. Many superhumans with low energy levels had returned to the mothership to rest, while the combat mechs and drones had also returned to replenish their energy or ammunition.

"Lord Li, we need to return to base and rest for a bit. We'll be back in battle soon." After explaining this via the communicator, Nangong Yanran, Zhao Liying, and Zhang Yang used the small thrusters on their spacesuits to head towards the flagship. Meanwhile, on the Royal Guard side, Cynthia had already led her men back for a short rest, following Queen Raymond's orders.

After everyone left, the combat mechs that had been replenished with ammunition and energy flew back one after another and continued to engage in the battle. Queen Raymond let out a long breath and said to Li Chenglong through the communicator, "Lord Li, would you like to take a break? We have been fighting for more than an hour and have eliminated a lot of special forces. There are probably only about 60% of the special forces left."

While fighting, Li Chenglong kept an eye on his spiritual energy reserves. He replied with a smile, "If Your Majesty is not tired, how can I leave first? Besides, when we sparred before, we fought fiercely for more than two hours."

The two chatted while fighting, but even so, countless special forces disappeared around them. Although there were only two of them, they were much more efficient than two fleets.

In the heat of battle, Li Chenglong suddenly sensed danger. He looked at Queen Raymond and found her still focused on the fight, seemingly oblivious to everything. Instinctively, Li Chenglong rushed over, grabbed Raymond's waist with his right hand, and immediately used spatial teleportation to leave the spot.

As soon as the two left their original spot, a black beam of light struck, turning everything around them, whether combat mechs or special warriors, into dust.

At this moment, Li Chenglong appeared in the normal space with Queen Raymond in his arms. Just now, in the gap between spaces, Li Chenglong felt that hugging was not very good, so he changed to holding hands.

On Roland Star, both the Elf and Dark Elf races are female, and they can reproduce independently without men. Therefore, even Queen Raemon didn't find Li Chenglong's actions particularly significant, though she felt they were somewhat disrespectful to her as queen.

Just as she was about to say something, she sensed a terrifying energy point in the distance, located right where the two of them had just been standing.

"We're going to have to fight this hard, so be careful!" Li Chenglong said seriously before transforming into the Amazing All-Powerful Holy Dragon Armor form. Moreover, the Holy Dragon Blood was activated to level 4. Not only that, the G Gem, which had merged with him, was also in full power. Li Chenglong had finally reached his peak combat state.

Queen Raimon narrowed her eyes and gazed into the distance. Less than five seconds later, her size increased dramatically, and she activated her Burst Battle Form. The two transformed into streaks of red and white light, charging towards the "mysterious figure" in the distance.

Only when he got close enough did Li Chenglong get a clear look at the mysterious man's appearance. He saw that the man was over two meters tall and was wearing a suit of armor that was interwoven with black and blood red. The style of the armor was somewhat similar to that of medieval Europe, but not quite the same.

Not only that, this mysterious person also exuded a terrifying aura that was a mixture of purple, blood red and black. Even Li Chenglong, who was already at his peak, felt that he was somewhat insignificant in front of the mysterious person.

Without exchanging a single word, the two sides immediately began their battle. "Holy Rune Judgment!" "Emperor Holy Dragon Slash!" Li Chenglong and Empress Raymond each unleashed their strongest killing moves, at maximum power. However, the mysterious man neither dodged nor evaded. He spread his arms, and white beams of light shot out from his left hand and black beams from his right, easily neutralizing the powerful attacks of both Li Chenglong and Empress Raymond.

"What?!" Queen Raymond exclaimed in shock. Li Chenglong said through the communicator, "We can't fight like this anymore. This is just a waste of both of our energy. Now we can only engage him in close combat and look for an opportunity to deliver a fatal blow!"

Then, the two, one wielding a scepter and the other a spear, engaged in fierce combat with the mysterious figure holding a battle sword. At the same time, the flagships of the three major planets received communications from Queen Raymond. As the overall commander of this battle, Queen Raymond ordered: "All fleets, regroup and retreat in an orderly manner. Without orders, no one is permitted to attack!"

Strangely, when the fleet began its slow retreat, the special forces did not pursue them. Instead, they remained in their current space, for reasons unknown.

An hour later, Queen Raymond was drenched in sweat and panting heavily. She said, "His attacks are too fierce. Just defending against them is exhausting. We are both very tired now, but he shows no signs of running out of energy."

Although Li Chenglong's breathing was also somewhat disordered, it was slightly better than Queen Raymond's. Through the battle just now, he had realized that it was absolutely impossible to defeat the mysterious powerhouse in front of him. Not only that, in the more than one hour of fighting, the two of them had used all their skills but had not found the slightest opening.

Suddenly, Queen Raymond's energy couldn't keep up, and she was about to be struck by the mysterious man's sword. Li Chenglong stretched out his left hand and pushed hard, and blood immediately gushed from his left wrist. Fortunately, the space combat suit was made of a special material, and it immediately began to repair itself upon detecting the tear.

Queen Raymond regained her balance and was about to say thank you when she was horrified to see Li Chenglong's chest heaving violently, and his left hand had completely disappeared.

"Lord Li, I'm sorry, it's my fault." Queen Raemon said as she rushed over, ready to continue fighting the mysterious man.

Li Chenglong trembled all over from the excruciating pain. He looked at Queen Raymond, who was doing her best to attract the mysterious man's attention, and made a decision.

Just as Queen Raymond was fighting the mysterious man, Li Chenglong used spatial teleportation to instantly lock the mysterious man tightly from behind: "Your Majesty, you should retreat quickly, I'm going to detonate the G-Gem!"

Queen Raymond immediately stopped her, saying, "No, you're already one with the G-Gem. If you detonate the G-Gem, even if you're a level 14 powerhouse, you'll definitely die. Don't be discouraged, let's think of another way."

"Retreat quickly! I can't catch him anymore. There's no other way. I just sensed that even if he's not the mastermind behind the special forces, he's a key figure. I detected his eyes through the special forces' communication network before. Go quickly, or we won't be able to leave! His strength is too great. If he gets to Earth, we're all doomed." Li Chenglong shouted to Queen Raymond while desperately trying to lock onto the mysterious man.

Seeing that Li Chenglong had made up his mind, Queen Raymond clenched her fist and used spatial teleportation to leave the area. At the same time, the mysterious man was repeatedly elbowing Li Chenglong's face with his freed left arm.

"Hahahaha, you can die now, but this beautiful place is not a place for trash like you to die. You can die with me in the dimensional rift!" Li Chenglong's helmet had cracked due to the mysterious man's crazy elbowing of his face, but he couldn't care less about that now.

Just as he was about to detonate the G-Gem and perish together with the mysterious man, he was suddenly blasted away by a powerful burst of energy. The mysterious man, facing him, actually spoke.

He then spoke in interstellar language: “Foolish, you are incredibly foolish to sacrifice yourself for those people. However, despite your foolishness, your actions deserve my respect. I am at the pinnacle of your special forces; you can call me the Apocalypse. In light of your performance, I can give you and your friends a fair chance to fight.”

Then something flew to Li Chenglong's side, and the Awakener continued, "This is the battlefield I have designated. Come, let's fight to the death. No matter how many people or how many warships you bring, it doesn't matter. My army and I will be waiting for you. But if you think that's all the strength I have, you are very wrong. This is just one of my many universes. But when the time comes, I will fight you with my strongest power."

After speaking, the Awakener vanished in a flash, and the remaining special forces also left through the opened spatial rift. Li Chenglong stored the item in his psionic space. Due to the excessive energy expenditure, he was unable to move and passed out after sending an emergency distress signal.
