rlkvvo hours later, the frontline Rocket Army received the command.

“The safety line has been successfully re-established, the Rocket Army is to retreat in batches…”

Du Gang also got the news from King Kong, and his spirits lifted considerably, for he would soon see his parents.

Since the doomsday had occurred, it had been almost three days. These three days felt as long as years to him, and he swore that he had never missed his parents as much as he did today.

About ten minutes later, the voice of King Kong rang out, “Du Gang, let’s go, everyone else has retreated, we’re the only ones left!”

Perhaps because they had both transformed into giant beasts, King Kong felt a particular kinship with Du Gang. Even though they had only fought for a short while, it felt as if they had been in battle for a long time.

“Hahaha, this is so invigorating, I’ve never felt this refreshed!”

King Kong was beaming with pride, “Did you see it? Just the two of us held this Spatial Channel…”

Du Gang looked at his smug expression and couldn’t help but retort: “Brother, let’s get things straight, it was me who blocked this Spatial Channel, you were just a sideshow!”

“Well, it’s pretty much the same thing. Without me, could you have been so relaxed while killing these insects?”

The speed at which the two of them were running was quite fast, reaching a hundred kilometers per hour. This was with Du Gang intentionally slowing down.

Soon, they arrived at the temporary base.

Although it’s referred to as a temporary base, it was essentially an area piled up with vehicles in the shape of a pyramid.

In the center of this area, a Dawn Stone was placed. This small Dawn Stone created a safe zone that couldn’t be breached by the insects.

From a distance, Du Gang saw Chu Zixuan and the officer from before standing inside a circle marked with a red line on the ground.

Instantly, he accelerated, crossing the final two kilometers in a matter of moments. As he approached them, he returned to his normal size.

“How is it? Where are my parents?”

As soon as he landed, Du Gang asked excitedly.

In his imagination, his parents should have been found by now. They were probably resting in one of the vehicles, shaken but safe.

Just as Chu Zixuan was about to speak, Wang Dezhen stopped him and said himself: “Du Gang, I am sorry, your parents have passed away.”

This news was like a thunderbolt on a clear day, exploding next to his ear. Once again, Du Gang was shaken to the core, but this time he did not sway as before.

First, Du Gang examined the commander’s facial expression; then, he turned to look at Chu Zixuan.

Chu Zixuan looked into his eyes, which were filled with a mixture of anxiety, anticipation, fear, and worry. It was difficult for her to inform him, but she nodded faintly and said, “Your parents indeed have passed away.”

Contrary to expectations, Du Gang did not break down in tears or fall to the ground. Instead, he just stood motionless, a look of complete silence replacing the complex emotions in his eyes. Yet, an unmistakable sense of sorrow emanated from him.

“How did they die?”

Du Gang asked slowly, his voice raspy, as if he had a lump stuck in his throat. Hearing Du Gang’s muffled words, Wang Dezhen let out a sigh: “The insects.” Du Gang didn’t ask further about their bodies or anything of the sort.

Because he understood, the insects did not discriminate. Any food would be completely devoured by them.

Now, he just wanted to find somewhere quiet to be alone for a while.

“Young man, the end of the world is something none of us expected. It’s a catastrophe for the Earth, and an even greater catastrophe for humanity…”

Wang Dezhen attempted to console him, continuing: “If your parents knew how powerful you are now, how you can exterminate the insects and contribute to humanity, they would be very proud from above.” “Is there a quiet place? I want to be alone for a while!”

Du Gang looked calm on the surface but asked in a low voice.

Wang Dezhen nodded, giving his aide-de-camp a sign, “Let him lead you!” Seeing this, Chu Zixuan quickly followed.

After they had left, King Kong had a furrowed brow, “Commander, I heard that this Du Gang is only 16, a high school student. You mentioned his parents are dead, won’t this make his inner-self…

Wang Dezhen nodded, “Exactly, this is why we should guide him. His power is too strong. If he cannot use it correctly, it will be a disaster for humanity!”

The aide-de-camp led Du Gang to a relatively quiet vehicle, “This is the

commander’s car. Stay here and if you want to cry, let it out. It’s not wrong for a man to shed tears!”

With that, he patted Du Gang’s shoulder and left.

Du Gang did not respond. He silently opened the car door and just as he was about to close it, Chu Zixuan suddenly appeared.

“Du Gang, there’s something I want you to know!”

Du Gang looked up in silence, staring dumbfoundedly at him.

Chu Zixuan bit the bullet and spoke up, “I don’t know if my observations are off, but I think Wang Yixuan and Mu Chuxue from our Experimental Middle School are alive… I don’t know why, but I feel like Wang Yixuan is acting strangely. I think, she may be hiding something!”

The light that had dimmed in Du Gang’s eyes suddenly lit up again, but amid it, a streak of violent anger was flickering.

“Where are they?”

Chu Zixuan started to regret, shaking his head, “Du Gang, we are in a military-controlled base. Don’t be impulsive…”

“Where are they?”

Du Gang’s eyes grew more violent, his gaze fixed on Chu Zixuan like a starving wolf, ready to pounce at any second.

Chu Zixuan sighed in his heart, eventually extending his hand and pointing in a direction, “It’s that way, about 100 meters, on the third floor… above a military pickup truck…”

Upon hearing this, Du Gang didn’t lose control. Instead, he turned and began walking in the direction Chu Zixuan had pointed, step by step.

If you looked closely at his steps, you’d notice each step was exactly 33 centimeters, which meant he needed only 300 steps to cover a hundred meters.

Seeing this, Chu Zixuan didn’t follow. He sensed that Du Gang was like a volcano waiting to erupt, ready to blow at any moment.

So, he walked in the opposite direction, stopping at a distance where he could monitor the area through his mental power yet far enough away.

Since he couldn’t stop it, he might as well observe from the sidelines!

Before long, Du Gang arrived at the vehicle Chu Zixuan had mentioned. Then, with a jump, he leapt to the third level of the car carrier, standing over six meters high.

“Du Gang?”

He didn’t respond, instead reaching out with both hands and pulling Wang

Yixuan and Mu Chuxue out.

“What are you doing?”

Seeing the situation go awry, the others in the car shouted out, immediately attracting the attention of the surrounding people.

“Transform!”

After seizing the two girls, Du Gang didn’t waste time arguing with the surrounding people. He transformed into a giant and began to step out through the gaps, soon leaving the encampment. He then ran toward the wilderness overrun with bugs.

Although he meticulously avoided stepping on the cars, the weight of his steps still caused the ground to tremble slightly.

This also drew the attention of the people around him.

“Monster…”

“G… Giant…

For a moment, panic engulfed the entire camp..
