Chapter 452: Just a Fatal Injury!
It was as if every single cell in his body was gushing out power. In an instant, two streams of white steam, hot as dragons, flowed from the corners of his mouth, churning and expanding!
Xia Shang didn't speak. Instead, he bent his knees slightly, lowering himself.
In a flash, incredibly violent power exploded beneath his feet, as if the surrounding land had been forcibly stomped down several meters.
With a loud bang! Xia Shang used this powerful recoil force, and he instantly vanished from the spot.
Accompanied by the continuous sonic booms in his ears, his body broke the sound barrier, wrapped in powerful airwaves, shooting towards Omni-Man in mid-air like a cannon shell fired from a barrel!
Seeing this scene, Omni-Man's eyes narrowed slightly. With a calm expression, he showed no intention of dodging.
Instead, he twisted his body and threw a heavy right fist towards the flying Xia Shang.
The fist, wearing a red glove, whistled out, rapidly expanding in Xia Shang's pupils.
At this moment, he felt as if what was coming towards him wasn't a fist, but a massive meteorite, trailing fire and seemingly intent on destroying everything!
Bang!!
The two fists collided again.
Xia Shang could clearly feel a violent pain exploding in rings along his forearm.
His fist, which was harder than steel, was instantly shattered. A mist of blood mixed with bone fragments spread out in the air.
What was shattered wasn't just the fist, but his entire right arm.
The two crossed paths in the air. Xia Shang glanced at the bloody severed arm, then turned around to look at Omni-Man.
"As expected of the strongest Supe. Both your body's hardness and the power you unleash are stronger than I anticipated."
"Another fool trying to challenge me?" Omni-Man frowned, a hint of disgust flashing in his eyes. "Isn't it better for you weak ants to just live? Why rush to seek death?"
The moment his voice fell, he appeared before Xia Shang as if by teleportation.
With a chiseled face and extremely indifferent eyes, Omni-Man looked at Xia Shang with a gaze as if observing ants.
"So what if you shattered one of my arms? Why are you acting so arrogant?" Strands of flesh and blood surged from the severed arm, intertwining like small snakes. In just a breath's time, Xia Shang used his newly regenerated right arm to point at his head, smiling, "If you want to hit me, hit here. As for arms, I can have as many as I want."
"What, just because you have Regeneration ability like the Regenerator, you think I can't kill you?"
Omni-Man arrived behind Xia Shang almost as if by teleportation, then raised his hands and clapped them towards Xia Shang's head. He seemed to envision this arrogant guy's head being smashed like a watermelon.
However, when he clapped his hands together, he found he had only hit a mass of air.
"Such speed, even I almost didn't react." A voice quietly sounded behind Omni-Man.
Immediately after, two black laser beams surged from Xia Shang's eyes.
The speed was so fast that even Omni-Man couldn't react. He was pushed by the laser beams from behind, flying into the distance. Rings of airwaves exploded around him. Ten meters! Twenty meters! Fifty meters... The laser beams didn't disappear; instead, the energy they contained grew stronger and stronger.
They looked like two black light beams, aiming to pierce through the heavens and earth along with Omni-Man's body. Boom!!
Omni-Man was slammed into the Earth by the laser beams, causing smoke and dust to billow everywhere.
Even Mark in the distance noticed the anomaly. However, at this moment, he couldn't use flight, only feeling the Earth tremble, as if something had fallen from high altitude.
Although he had hit Omni-Man with the laser beams, Xia Shang could sense that the opponent's injury was likely not serious.
As expected...
When the smoke and dust cleared, Omni-Man was seen kneeling in a deep crater. Aside from some damage to the clothes on his back, he was almost unscathed. He slowly stood up, meeting Xia Shang's gaze, then turned and raised an arm to block the incoming laser beams.
One must know that Xia Shang's Cyclops could easily slice through an entire building. Yet, someone could withstand such an attack with their physical body, and so effortlessly at that.
"Too much value to analyze. He's practically a treasure of this world."
The stronger the power Omni-Man displayed, the more excited Xia Shang became. This showed that his ten thousand fantasy value wasn't spent in vain.
As his thoughts flickered, Omni-Man rose into the air, facing the laser beams, then flew towards Xia Shang as if taking a leisurely stroll.
Meanwhile, at the Global Defense Agency, in the secret Surveillance Room.
An old man wearing a suit, with white hair but bald on top, stood behind the Staff, looking at the two beams of black light that appeared on the screen.
"Director Cecil, it seems someone is fighting Omni-Man. I've already gathered the surrounding surveillance footage and found that the person is just a Store Manager from a burger shop, named Mr. Jervis," the Staff said, typing on the keyboard.
"Investigate his past experiences and check if he has a criminal record," said the steady Director Cecil. Through the surveillance footage, he saw Omni-Man endure Mr. Jervis's laser beams, charge forward fiercely, and brutally shatter the opponent's head.
"Wait a moment, there's no need anymore. Notify the Special Operations Team to just retrieve that man's corpse."
Unexpectedly, just as the Staff nodded, picked up the communication device, and was about to notify the Special Operations Team...
Director Cecil frowned and spoke again, "Wait, something's not right. Why is Mr. Jervis's corpse still suspended in the air?"
The screen image shifted.
Omni-Man retracted his fist, covered in blood, and looked at the headless corpse before him, saying coldly, "So what if you have regeneration ability? Getting your head shattered is still a dead end."
"Just a fatal injury... If I had intended to dodge, you wouldn't necessarily have hit me."
The next scene caused Omni-Man's pupils to shrink involuntarily, a hint of horror flashing in his eyes.
A mass of flesh and blood was seen swelling up from Xia Shang's neck like a balloon, then forming a complete head, identical to how it was before being shattered.
"Ultimate power, ultimate speed, and a body like the Man of Steel... Tsk tsk tsk, it's simply perfect."
Looking at Omni-Man in front of him, Xia Shang revealed a satisfied smile and exclaimed.
"You... are you an alien?" Omni-Man scanned Xia Shang's body. He suspected the other party was parasitized by some kind of alien creature, and the parasitism wasn't in the brain, otherwise how could he regenerate after losing his head?
"What are you talking about? I'm just an ordinary human with slightly strong regeneration ability."
