The time advanced to the beginning of the seventy-second year of the Abyss Calendar. Electricity and the internet had evidently become indispensable parts of this world.
On Blue Star, every inhabited place was connected to electricity and the internet, which were essential for people's lives.
Every person encounters the internet from birth, even though their young selves might not understand what that floating light screen before them truly is.
The human world is covered with displays everywhere, even the darkest corners are equipped with them.
When the United Government forcefully took control of all displays on Blue Star, the confrontation image between Yan Luo and the Evil God was broadcasted, attracting countless eyes, witnessing the ultimate battle that would decide Blue Star's fate.
This was a plan crafted by the United Government themselves. They believed the Evil God was something born from human thoughts and should be dealt with using thoughts.
Moreover, they had already tested with death row inmates, and after seeing the full image of the Evil God, the inmate showed no hormonal changes.
The previously depicted figure by an artist, according to Yan Luo's description, rendered him insane when he portrayed the full image of the Evil God, suggesting the real presence has even more terrifying information content. The fact that the inmate showed no hormonal change ten seconds after gazing at the real presence suggests the image of the real Evil God does not drive Blue Star People into madness.
Yan Luo was unaware of the happenings outside; however, he did have some knowledge of the United Government's plan.
The plan was essentially a backup, to be activated only when Yan Luo could no longer contain the information spread by the Evil God.
Yan Luo actively dispelled the clouds entirely because, upon materialization, the Evil God lost its ability to pollute information.
The whole world's eyes focused on this scene, and under the influence of the materialization magnetic field, Yan Luo could even feel the heavy pressure weighing on him.
It was the expectation of a whole planet of humans!
Yan Luo's silhouette suddenly flashed, leaving a remnant in the viewers' eyes, and in the next moment, his body appeared before the Evil God, delivering a punch.
The heavy punch hit the Evil God's left arm squarely, shattering it instantly.
The Evil God promptly reacted by swinging its arm towards Yan Luo's head.
Even at such strength, the head and heart were still Yan Luo's vulnerabilities. Destroying either one would lead to his death.
The Evil God believed it had grasped the power of 'world destruction,' feeling smug and even fantasizing about smashing Yan Luo's head with one slap.
Crack!
A crisp sound emerged, yet it wasn't the Evil God blowing up Yan Luo's head. Instead, Yan Luo twirled and swung his arm, breaking the Evil God's attacking arm, then his body rotated significantly, launching a high spinning kick. His sturdy leg muscles erupted with immense power, blasting the Evil God's head.
The body without arms nor head swayed in the air briefly before swiftly reconstructing the missing parts.
Upon reconstructing the arms, the Evil God immediately crossed its arms before its chest, as Yan Luo launched another punch.
The force seemingly capable of crushing the heavens and earth packed into the fist, under which time seemed to stand still.
The fist and hand bones shattered upon contact with the Evil God, yet the subsequent tidal wave of magnetic field force propelled the fist right into the Evil God's chest cavity.
Instantly, several rings of condensed clouds blossomed along Yan Luo's arm, followed by the sharp sound of air breaking.
This punch at fifty times the speed of sound, imbued with intense kinetic energy, momentum, and magnetic field power, was completely unstoppable by the Evil God.
Kinetic energy and momentum were small components within this punch; what truly penetrated the degenerate material was the magnetic field power.
Three exchanges happened within a mere three seconds, leaving most spectators unable to clearly see what Yan Luo had done.
They only knew Yan Luo had subdued that ugly thing.
And that ugly thing was probably the 'Evil God' that had been widely spread recently.
A traitor born from Blue Star People's thoughts, whose first move was to destroy the Blue Star Civilization upon its birth!
"Yan Luo's amazing!"
"That's how you should fight! No, that's the only way to fight!"
"Finish it off! Finish it off!"
Many spectators huddled around the display screens cheered enthusiastically, without a trace of worry or sorrow in their hearts because that was occurring thousands of miles away—they were merely distant observers. Even if Yan Luo was defeated, the Evil God couldn't harm them immediately.
So, they could be excited, they could cheer.
They were fearless!
At this moment, Yan Luo, enlightened, suddenly reached into the void beside him and grabbed a shotgun.
Not just any shotgun, but the model he most often used.
"So that's the way it is…" Yan Luo smiled generously.
He understood it all now.
Yan Luo pulled the shotgun forearm, aimed at the Evil God, and pulled the trigger.
The materialization magnetic field not only granted the Evil God a body, making it a 'materially existing thing.'
In ancient Blue Star Civilization's beliefs, the final battle against the Evil God would undoubtedly involve a world leader wielding the strongest power, carrying the whole world's worship and expectations.
Yan Luo was no world leader. Despite his fame, his influence was limited; he wasn't burdened with much positive emotion.
The United Government's 'battle of faith' action coincidentally aligned with the ancient setup, and the shotgun in Yan Luo's hand transformed from 'positive emotions.'
The ancestors had served the meal right to his mouth, failing to eat would be unwise.
Accompanied by a gunshot, the Evil God's alarm bells rang. It felt the threat posed by the gun in Yan Luo's hands.
It began rapidly searching its memories, hoping to figure out where Yan Luo's gun originated.
However, most memories related to this seemed lost during the harm Yan Luo caused it several times earlier, leaving the Evil God only aware of the United Government preparing a plan but not even knowing its code name, let alone details.
Just a moment of thinking, the Evil God realized it couldn't find the plan prepared by the United Government and began dodging.
The gunfire was just a feint, yet Yan Luo's weapon abruptly changed form, his body flashed, and he swung a hatchet towards the Evil God.
The Evil God was entirely unprepared, having its head split along with half its chest by the hatchet.
Thankfully, it reacted quickly, forcefully pushing its arms forward regardless of the conflicts and contradictions among engravings. Even if abilities counteracted each other, the Evil God unleashed all its powers instantly.
The Evil God forced Yan Luo to retreat, preventing him from launching further attacks.
Nonetheless, even so, the Evil God suffered serious damage.
Yan Luo's prior attacks were purely physical blows, capable of destroying its body and causing information loss but not truly harming its 'thought.'
Psychological harm all stemmed from information loss, not direct damage.
But now?
The hatchet embedded in the Evil God's body, subsequently merging within.
People's expectations for Yan Luo, their hopes for him to conquer the Evil God, began contaminating the information carried by the Evil God.
The once visible information got replaced by cheers and exhilarating words.
——Its 'self' was being contaminated!
The injuries on the Evil God's body healed instantly, yet its soul's wounds continued expanding.
At this moment, Yan Luo again retrieved a shotgun from the surrounding air.
The Evil God, originally intending to counterattack, shrank back, its single eye holding a firm gaze on the shotgun in Yan Luo's hand.
Having been deceived by Yan Luo once before, the Evil God couldn't fall into the same trap again.
Just like before, Yan Luo pulled the trigger, firing the bullet towards the Evil God.
The Evil God no longer focused its attention on the flying bullet. With sheer instinct, it could evade it, having no need to waste attention on such; its eye was steadfastly fixated on Yan Luo, ensuring he remained within its visual range.
Yet this time, Yan Luo executed no further actions, continuously pulling the trigger to fire bullets.
All the more, the Evil God grew wary.
After all, it couldn't predict when Yan Luo might suddenly launch an attack!
