Chapter 255: Completion

"Indeed, holy light has no effect on these entities from another dimension, at most it only deals true damage..."

A pillar of fire intertwined with holy light erupted behind him, scattering the monster horde, their remains falling like broken rain through the fog.

"If these were creatures of darkness, they would have dissolved under the light of the holy light by now."

"So, there's another universe?"

York maneuvered the vehicle at high speed, skillfully dodging the giant spider's strikes as he continued towards the mountainous area behind.

At this point, the female giant spider no longer caught his eye.

York first revisited his previous speculation.

This parallel world bore some resemblance to his previous life, yet it was not quite the same.

At least the history of the Church's development was somewhat different from his previous life.

He had thought it might be the difference between having a God and not having one.

But he had also considered another possibility.

That is, since there are parallel worlds, hell, and heaven, could this world be another universe?

As if his previous life was in the Earth's universe, while his current location was in another...

Just as he thought of this, a giant web appeared in front of him. York performed a swift drift to avoid the web, which fell behind him and corroded the highway into smoky ruins.

The monsters' howls converged into an increasingly unpleasant, grating noise.

Yet York, as if unseen, continued to control the vehicle, dodging the monsters' varied attacks.

Meanwhile, his mind was still pondering.

In his previous life, the universe was singular, the overarching term for all of space. The concept of other universes was somewhat awkward for him to accept.

But now, having accepted the existence of hell and heaven, along with the apparent emergence of monsters from another world, York easily embraced the notion.

That is, the universe is not singular but potentially comprises multiple universes.

His previous life was in another universe, and he had merely traversed to another universe.

"No wonder my home phone number is out of service!"

Outside was the dense fog and monsters chasing and attacking, but inside the vehicle, York's eyes shone brighter. He pressed the gas pedal, steering the muscle pickup like a rocket straight into the mountainous region.

Here, the monsters' sizes became increasingly larger and more bizarre, and a smile began to emerge on York's face.

It seemed he might have a chance to go home.

"So! I might have a chance to go home and see!"

This thought echoed in his mind as telekinesis burst forth from within him.

Ten grenades rapidly flew out of the backpack, their pins pulling automatically. York heard the enchantment prompt as he did so.

[10 points of magic consumed]

The ten grenades fused into one entity, so the thirty points of magic actually covered their combined power, amplifying it thirtyfold.

The fused holy grenades clattered to the ground.

Three!

In that second, equivalent to an instant, the monster horde, including the female giant spider and the spider-lobster monsters that had been chasing the vehicle, arrived at the spot the vehicle had just left.

In an instant, the ten grenades split open, emitting countless rays of light.

Boom!

Each ray, along with the fragments of the grenades themselves, pierced through every monster it passed.

Pop, pop, pop, pop!

At the explosion's epicenter, every monster burst into blood and flesh in the fog.

The muscle pickup, which had instantly driven away from the spot, was pushed and wobbled by the explosion's shockwave that reached it first...

Of course, this was just a small group. Many more monsters in the mountainous area were attracted by the sound, approaching the source.

Regardless, York had managed to escape the chase of the monster horde.

His goal was to gather the monsters together for a final solution.

The effect was very effective. Through the constantly changing real-time 3D map in his mind, York could see a very spectacular scene behind him.

Although it wasn't as dramatic as a nuclear mushroom cloud or the true holy light of Thailand, the scene wasn't as small as he had imagined.

The sky was lit with fire and smoke, covering the area's fog, creating a stark contrast as if the fog contained flames.

The monster horde below was ablaze.

York then gathered his scattered thoughts.

He had found and now possessed his own goal.

"Since there are multiple universes, there must be a day when I can find a way home, even if just to see my parents with my own eyes, think of some way to make amends. After all, both old people suffered for the me of my previous life, and...

Unfortunately, I am no longer just the person from my previous life but a fusion of Ning Weize and York, and this world is also home. If I can find the universe of my previous life, I need to think of a perfect way..."

His murmured thoughts fell silent as the dark vehicle thundered into the dim mountains, entering an unknown world.

York glanced in the rearview mirror. With his now non-human eyes, he could see the mountains as a dividing line.

Separating the relatively bright outside, where one could see and the current dark mountains where ordinary eyes could see nothing, into two parts, two worlds.

"It really feels like entering another world..."

York muttered, continuing to drive through the dark fog.

Even though the fog was thick enough to prevent ordinary people from seeing their surroundings, even their own hands, it couldn't stop York.

With the real-time 3D map in his mind, everything within a hundred meters around him was almost entirely visible.

The vehicle easily entered the mountainous base area, charging straight in.

Here, York could see traces of fierce battles left behind.

Remnants of bombings were everywhere.

Large areas of forest had been leveled, with the corpses of American soldiers and monsters mixed together.

And he had finally reached his destination.

York drove the vehicle to the dilapidated checkpoint, slowly getting out in front of the military base, looking up at the massive structure before him.

"So it has come to this."

In his view, a wide and massive red space rift appeared behind the base, like a giant dragon glowing red, straddling between worlds.

It shone brightly red, radiating intense energy fluctuations, burning fiercely like a flame.

The space on both sides seemed twisted and stretched, forming a red vortex, continuously rotating and wriggling, like broken ice.

Red light crisscrossed at the rift's edge, flickering like burning flames, casting a red halo on everything around.

It was a spectacular scene that made York involuntarily appreciate the view.

The sight before him was truly beautiful.

But as beautiful as it was, York could see the dense fog slowly emerging from inside, mixed with some flying monsters, and even the area on the ground adjacent to the rift was continuously spewing out endless monsters.

And he had become the center of attention.

Some monsters were charging towards him.

Although some chose to ignore him and head to the other side, many were charging towards him.

A group, a large group, countless, densely packed.

York's expression remained unchanged, just checking his personal panel to confirm his stats.

After time's recovery, his magic value was left at 161, and his spirit/holy power was at 218.

"Enough."

The monster's terrifying howls drew closer, with attacking monsters from all directions in the 3D environment.

York began to move forward, his determined thoughts echoing.

"Arise!"

Within a hundred meters, all the firearms in the hands of human corpses suddenly levitated, as if controlled by someone, their triggers pulled, shooting at the approaching monsters.

A vast area of dense fog lit up with the flash of gunfire, like countless fireworks blooming behind York, with innumerable shell casings continuously falling around, ricocheting off the ground.

In the entire space permeated with telekinesis,

Two machine guns moved from the pickup's bed to York's rear, firing at the monster horde behind him as he stepped forward.

At the same time, the remaining holy grenades and holy bombs, along with rifles, followed York into the base.

For a moment, around York, to the front, left, and right, it was as if invisible forces were defending him from the monster horde that had the momentum of thousands of troops.

Gunfire and light filled the entire space, a spectacular sight overwhelming the presence of the monster horde.

[40 points of magic consumed]

[40 points of spirit consumed]

Compared to technology, York for the first time truly demonstrated his supernatural powers.

Not a single monster could reach him, nor did any force him to act personally; he was like a bystander on a walk, surrounded by countless levitating firearms, accompanied by dense fireworks and gunfire, step by step moving towards the location of the spatial rift.

"According to what Jim said, the research team seems to have used some device to generate a strong electromagnetic or gravitational field to warp the structure of space-time, opening a spatial passage..."

"As for their device, it seems to be located at..."

Walking through the building, York gestured, and a classic M16 rifle appeared before him, firing at a widow-like creature charging at him.

The building was mostly inhabited by these widow creatures that parasitize human bodies because they lay eggs inside humans.

Thus, the main building was full of spider webs, enclosing the dead bodies of American soldiers or researchers in white lab coats.

According to the information York gathered in the mist, these widow spiders could lay thousands of eggs at a time, meaning the main building was full of widow spiders.

Indeed, observing the spiders he shot apart, and seeing the densely packed widows crawling around the walls and outside, small and large, York continued his step towards the location of the device mentioned by Jim, watching firearms struggle under the spiders' assault and clenched his fist.

The entire space momentarily froze.

All the spiders and other monsters within a hundred meters, including the eggs inside human corpses, were instantly crushed by his fist, bursting into a shower of blood.

[30 points of magic consumed]

[30 points of spirit consumed]

A total of 900 points of telekinesis were instantly used up in this punch.

The consumption resulted in the main building returning to calm, now covered in filth.

Having completed this step, York, with numerous firearms, unhindered, arrived at the research lab mentioned by Jim.

The heavy metal door opened a crack, York pushed it open, and the environment inside was suddenly revealed.

Highly technological, it was as if he had arrived at a tech park, with the equipment laid out before him.

Massive and complex, made of precision-engineered metal, the machinery's exterior was embedded with glowing control panels and various displays.

In the center, there was a huge energy injector, made of advanced alloy materials, showing a metallic luster.

The energy injector seemed to be surrounded by a complex electromagnetic field, gathering and stabilizing energy.

Above it, a set of rotating reverse particle accelerators were equipped with a series of sensors and monitoring systems.

York approached, eyes revealing a glimpse of humanity's future technology, his mind echoing Jim's words and descriptions.

In Jim's account, the rotating reverse particles were controlled by precise electromagnetic manipulation, generating and releasing particle beams at extremely high speeds.

These particle beams, with specific frequencies and energies, were injected into the spatial rift, either stabilizing space or could repair and close the rift...

Right in front of the device was the massive spatial rift.

Fog continuously emerged from inside, and there, York could hear the massive tumult inside, like the roaring of an earthquake, as if the apocalypse was approaching.

York squinted as he approached the device, looking towards the red-glowing rift with its edges constantly breaking, resembling shattered ice, still emitting red light.

With the naked eye, nothing could be seen, but York felt as if he were witnessing another dimension.

In his eyes and mind, it was a world devoid of light, perpetually shrouded in thick fog.

Dark, light, the high oxygen content made his brain fall into a drowsy state, as if before the onset of poisoning.

York remained unfazed, however, and looked up.

A monster as large as a building, at least a hundred meters tall, passed before him.

Its entire body resembled a giant insect, six legs akin to those of an elephant supporting its massive body, which appeared very disproportionate. Its head and the area around its body were adorned with numerous tentacle-like whiskers, swirling around scorpion beasts and the pterodactyl-like creatures that preyed on them, forming an ecosystem.

This made York marvel at the size and appearance of the behemoth.

"No wonder, it made the male lead and others instantly despair; a behemoth over a hundred meters tall walking on Earth, its body's strength is hard to imagine."

Boom!

In York's perception,

Each step of the monster caused a huge disturbance.

He could also feel that the monster had indeed noticed him, but it regarded him, as insignificant as an ant, as nothing, continuing its slow march towards the spatial rift.

"Behemoth... Whether in the Bible or other sources, seems to be a herbivorous creature, with a gentle nature..."

York clenched his fist: "I wonder what the strength of my body is now."

He wanted to verify personally, but unfortunately, his presence here was only a manifestation of his psychic abilities combined with a 3D map.

Boom!

York looked into the distance, in the unknown depths of the dense fog, there seemed to be other behemoth-sized creatures.

Boom!

"This world is truly vast!"

Listening to the disturbances caused by the behemoth, York blinked on the other side of the device, the psychic manifestation inside him instantly dissipating, leaving a trace of awe in the depths of his eyes.

"If there's a chance, we might meet again, by then..."

Recalling the moment of eye contact with the behemoth, York watched the spatial fragments fall around him, reaching out to the equipment in front of him.

[90 points of magic consumed]

Instantly enchanting, the device's effect and particle size increased ninetyfold.

York gently tapped the keyboard next to him.

If Jim and his research team believed the particle's intensity and speed were insufficient to compensate for the loss of particles in the rift, hence the failure to mend it, then what would happen if the quantity, quality, etc., were all increased ninetyfold?

York soon saw for himself.

As he activated it, the device's reverse rotating particle machine suddenly spun, with spatial particles rapidly gathering inside, speeding up to the point of bursting, illuminating the entire lab.

When it reached its limit, York prepared to protect himself with a psychic shield, but the device suddenly trembled, shooting a beam of particles directly at the spatial rift in front of it.

A deafening explosion

 sounded, spreading a massive energy throughout the space, spreading to all sides.

Walls cracked, the needles in the instruments rapidly spun and then burst, everything levitated under the assault of this energy, but under York's suppression, the particle device and he stood firm like a rock, resisting the energy shock.

Everything flew chaotically around him, except for him and the device, stable as Mount Tai.

Letting the protective shield shatter into specks, York stood silently, watching in front of him.

Particle after particle, like grains of sand, rapidly gathered towards the spatial rift, quickly sealing its constantly breaking edges, bit by bit, until the rift visibly shrank, until it was mended, until it closed...
