The Max Level Hero Has Returned!

Thud!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh.....

The humans, emanating a deathly aura akin to cast-away corpses, may appear human on the outside, but they were entirely distinct on the inside. Surely, any ordinary human would have been fatally shocked. However, these beings nonchalantly began to stand up, as if they were immune to pain.

But that wasn't all. Apart from these grotesque humans, Davey's primary target was the enormous black life form. The monster from the abyss was not deceased; instead, it was rapidly regenerating, gradually lifting its massive body. The brute, expelled from the train, possessed a somewhat monstrous form, with a body that reached nearly 10 meters and dozens of slender tentacles squirming upon it.

"If Perserque were to witness this, she would undoubtedly be startled."

That was the first thought that crossed Davey's mind.

‘Of course, unlike her, I find such forms quite interesting.’

"Rinne, check it out."

"Trust my precise analytical capabilities once again."

With a short response, particles gathered on one of Rinne’s arms.

Zing!!!

Simultaneously, a brightly glowing lightsaber materialized in one hand, while the other hand conjured a staff.

"Ah... Ahhhhhhh..."

"Kyaaaaaaa!!"

The creatures, unfazed by the destruction of their bodies, swiftly charged toward Rinne and Davey.

Slash!!

As Rinne positioned herself in front of Davey, she swiftly thrust her lightsaber straight through the heart of the first charging monster.

Poof!

The light sword effortlessly pierced through the monster's body, reducing its heart to shreds and cauterizing the wound.

However, despite the fatal blow, the beast relentlessly advanced toward Rinne. With a gaping hole in its torso, it viciously tried to sink its teeth, dripping with saliva and blood, into her.

Boom!!

With a horrifying crunching sound, Rinne swung her staff once more, smashing the monster's head and causing blood to splatter across her face.

"Master Davey, I've detected multiple viruses in the target's blood. While it poses no threat to the biogolem, it's lethal to humans," she analyzed.

"It seems they're truly headed to Busan."

These creatures resembled zombies, but they were unlike the occasional zombies found on the Tionis continent. They possessed wicked intelligence and inexplicably outstanding physical abilities.

"Kyaaaaaaa!!"

As one of the creatures was destroyed, the rest indiscriminately launched attacks on Rinne and Davey. Rinne's eyes flickered, and soon a powerful light gathered at the tip of her staff.

"Control your power!"

"Rinne! High assessment!"

Thud!!!

From the beginning, Davey was aware that the staff he held was no ordinary dark staff. As he witnessed the devastating power that obliterated everything in its path with a resounding blast, a sudden realization struck him — there was something amiss with the countdown before him.

[24:42]

"Initially, it was thirty minutes. Rinne, how long have we been here?"

In response to Davey's question, Rinne deactivated the lightsaber and caused the shattered staff to disperse into particles.

"Rinne's biological clock is highly accurate. Approximately 2 minutes and 32 seconds have elapsed since Master Davey and Rinne arrived here," she replied.

Only two minutes had passed. Around five minutes had vanished from the time limit. What on earth was happening?

Grr…

Before Davey could discern the reason, it wasn't the assumed zombies that caught his attention, but the black abyss life form. Seizing the opportune moment while Davey's guard was down, it plunged its tentacles into the ground, rapidly ensnaring him from below.

[We are.]

[One.]

[One purpose.]

[Everyone will become one.]

Eerily familiar and strange sensations reverberated within him. It was always this way when dealing with the abyss creatures. Despite his arms, neck, and legs being tightly constricted, and the creature squeezing with an intent to rend him apart, Davey discreetly checked the time once more and silently gathered his mana.

[6th-Circle of Fire]

[Burn Body]

Like a fire spirit, Davey's body synchronized with the essence of flame, igniting with an intense blaze. The tentacles withered away within the fierce red flames almost instantly, prompting Davey to swiftly sever them. He then glanced at the clock.

[23:05]

"Bingo."

Indeed, the initial time limit was set at thirty minutes. However, despite only two minutes elapsing, nine minutes had inexplicably vanished, seemingly due to this phenomenon.

After forcefully tearing off the constricting tentacles, Davey once again concentrated his mana for the experiment and observed Rinne entering a frenzy. Once more, she materialized particles, swiftly forming a colossal, savage, and horrifyingly large chainsaw.

"Rinne, it's deemed highly effective against zombies."

Buzz!! Buzz!! Buzzzzzzz!!!

With a bone-chilling sound and a chainsaw fiercely spinning, Rinne fearlessly plunged into the midst of the monsters. While the chainsaw appeared ordinary on the surface, its intricate internal structure made it practically impossible to replicate, rendering it a weapon exclusive to Rinne.

As she swung her chainsaw, the monsters began to fall one by one, blood gruesomely splattering. As her pace quickened, time seemed to accelerate, passing faster than normal. Conversely, since Davey was not utilizing his powers, the temporal acceleration appeared to slow down compared to the beginning.

"The more power you use, the faster time runs out, right?" Davey contemplated.

To vanquish the creature within the time limit, a powerful strike was necessary. The challenge lay in the fact that the rate at which the time limit was diminishing surpassed his expectations, intensifying the risk of being expelled before he could take action.

"I should only exhaust the remaining time when I have a foolproof plan to eliminate it," Davey determined.

If that wasn't the case...

"Without utilizing my powers, I must find a way to confront it within the time limit using alternative means."

The certainty of having only one opportunity remained. Thus, Davey had no choice but to think creatively.

"Rinne, take down one of them and retreat," Davey instructed.

Following Davey's command, Rinne swiftly dispatched one of the monsters, or rather zombies, with her chainsaw, then leaped toward another nearby. With a powerful punch, she shattered its attacking mouth, tore off its arms, and promptly brought it down to the ground.

Rinne's savagery bordered on brutality, yet instilling common sense in her proved to be a formidable task. Being inherently different from humans in terms of self-identity and preferences, Rinne swiftly neutralized the zombie's offensive capabilities, gripping it by the back of its head, slamming it onto the ground, and swiftly retreating.

"Whether it's you or me, using power reduces our remaining time here. Therefore, we must find a way to confront that creature in the remaining 20 minutes or so," Davey explained.

"But, but..." Rinne struggled to articulate.

While dragging the flailing zombie, Rinne suddenly halted. Ignoring Davey's retreat, she pointed toward the monstrous abyss creature, its colossal tentacles in motion.

"Mr. Davey, I believe a single powerful magic spell should suffice," Rinne suggested.

"Let's keep that in mind," Davey replied, narrowing his eyes. It didn't seem as simple as Rinne envisioned. Davey grabbed a rock from the railway tracks, infused it lightly with mana, and then focused his gaze on the abyss monster. With a forceful stomp of his left foot, a massive explosion erupted, generating a tremendous shockwave where his foot made contact with the ground. Utilizing that force, Davey hurled the stone toward the creature.

[Throws of Power]

[Precision Steel Bullet]

Crash!!!

The scorching, radiant stone soared through the air, and upon sensing its presence, the abyssal monster extended its tentacles to block the attack. However, the stone pierced through the creature's tentacles effortlessly, leaving behind a massive hole in its body. It was an unquestionably fatal blow. Another 40 seconds vanished with that single strike, leaving only about 20 minutes remaining. But the challenge was far from over.

"Warning, rapid cellular activity detected in the target. It's exhibiting hyper-fast regeneration. Detailed analysis suggests the presence of an organ responsible for this regeneration."

"Since we're expelled once we run out of time, we need to proceed with caution," Davey warned, receiving a nod of agreement from Rinne.

"Davey, let's make strategic use of the surrounding terrain."

"Easier said than done," Davey muttered, swiftly surveying the surroundings. Unfortunately, there was nothing in sight that could serve as a weapon.

The most effective approach would be to unleash an attack so powerful that even with a potential rebound, the creature wouldn't survive. Davey and Rinne would undoubtedly be expelled from this place, but as long as they dealt with their primary target, it wouldn't pose a problem.

The undead monsters charged relentlessly toward Davey, while the abyssal creature remained motionless, emitting a strange noise. With a peculiar expression on his face, Davey began slowly gathering mana in one hand.

"We only have one chance."

Only one.

The optimal choice would be to annihilate everything in sight. Swordsmanship, martial arts, or archery with limited range were not viable options. They had no other alternative but to select the most efficient method: casting a spell that would obliterate the entire area before time ran out. After contemplating their options, Davey raised both hands.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah!"

"Kyaaaaaaaaak!"

Meanwhile, the dozens of zombies rushing toward Davey and Rinne unexpectedly multiplied, now numbering in the hundreds. These superhuman beings, surpassing the limits of human strength, moved with relentless determination. Individually, their power might not be too threatening, but their sheer numbers made them a formidable adversary.

"Well, I guess we'll just blow them up first," Davey remarked, feeling uncertain.

When no other solution presented itself, causing an explosion seemed like the best course of action. Davey rapidly manipulated mana in his hand for a moment. If they were to eradicate this place quickly, nothing beat a physical explosion utilizing recoil. Considering Rinne's surveillance, which confirmed no biological reactions in the area, this approach wouldn't pose a significant problem.

[9th-Circle Beyond Nebula System]

[Quasar]

It was at that moment, just as he was about to cast a spell mimicking a mini-nebula explosion, that he abruptly halted. Without hesitation, he completely dispersed the spell's tuning. In this new place, he felt different from usual, prompting Davey to give up on the choice of attacking without hesitation. And in the very moment he abandoned the spell...

Ting!!

Something metallic flew into the thin air.

Psssssssssst!!!

The metallic object emitted white smoke like a smoke bomb, quickly obscuring their vision and scattering the zombies' offensive.

"Davey, biological response detected, approaching quickly," Rinne reported.

Simultaneously, Davey spotted a small boy wearing a peculiar cape rushing toward him with 16 minutes remaining. The boy discarded an additional layer of cloth and displayed a strong vitality that had previously gone unnoticed.

"Over here! It's over here!" the boy shouted urgently, grabbing Davey's hand. Davey reached out and turned over the hood of the boy's cape.

"Ah?! What are you doing?!" the startled boy exclaimed.

But as Davey stepped back, the boy swiftly put the hood back on and held onto Davey's hand.

"I'm Eva. Evanov Ban. Let's talk later, let's run for now!" the boy urged.

Eva, the self-proclaimed greatest lunatic mad scientist? Wait, he looked familiar...
