I Spread my Genes to Level Up in the Apocalypse

"Status."

[Gene Synchronisation: Yuna - Space Mastery (Time: 37:29)]

Ray focused on the independent space he was now connected to, where numerous weapons were stored.

"Ray," Evelyn tugged at his sleeve, her voice slightly shaky as she felt overwhelmed by the new sensations.

"It's fine, we'll pull through," Ray reassured her softly. "I'll go in first, and you all give me support."

"I'll go too, boss," Greg immediately offered. "I know my power isn't on par with yours, but when it comes to destructive force, I'm the best."

"Alright."

Ray tensed his legs, channelling his power as his muscles twitched and veins bulged. The ground beneath him began to crack as he leaped into the air.

"It's time for a slaughter."

…

The soldiers stood around with lazy expressions, some even stifling yawns.

"You really think Ray will come?" one of them asked, his voice filled with doubt.

"I don't think so," another soldier replied. "No matter how much of a monster he is, he will be exhausted after facing thousands of our brothers. If I were him, I'd pretend to surrender, buy myself some time, and then find a way to escape when the moment was right—"

The soldier spoke with arrogant confidence, as if he knew everything. But suddenly, his companion's eyes widened in horror, pointing frantically toward the sky.

"What's the matter?" the arrogant soldier asked, turning to follow the direction of his companion's trembling hand. The moment he looked up, his eyes also widened in sheer terror.

Under the shadow of the blood moon, the silhouette of a tall man grew larger and larger, emitting an overwhelming killing intent.

"Alert! Alert! Enemy incoming!" The scout's frantic announcement cut through the air.

Boom!

The figure landed with a force that made the ground tremble, sending a shockwave that instantly turned two soldiers into meat paste, along with at least five others.

Ray, wielding a curved knife in one hand and a halberd in the other, casually slashed at a nearby soldier. The halberd sliced through him with ease, cleaving him in half.

"Ahhh—"

The soldier's scream of terror echoed as his severed body parts flopped around helplessly, like a fish out of water.

All the soldiers stared at Ray with sheer horror in their eyes.

"Monster." The word echoed in their minds as they looked at the tall figure, drenched in blood and bathed in the red hue of the moon with the two weapons in his hand, making Ray appear like a devil.

"Since you dared to threaten me with my woman, have you all prepared to face the consequences!"

Ray roared loudly as his figure blurred, swiftly decapitating at least ten soldiers in an instant.

The soldiers' blood splattered over him, adding to his ferocious appearance.

"Ray, you've finally come out."

The middle-aged military general emerged from his tent, his gaze cold and unyielding as he watched Ray.

"Why?" Ray demanded, his eyes bloodshot as he continued to slash with his curved knife, cutting down a soldier who tried to aim a gun at him. "Why are you attacking me for no reason? I avoided you guys because I didn't want to fight with you…"

"Because you are too dangerous, Ray. The power you wield is uncontrollable and poses an unstable risk to ordinary people," the general said calmly.

Ray sneered. "Unstable? Do you expect me to believe that nonsense? If my power was so unstable, why didn't you attack King earlier? And why did the military not act when the government was being slaughtered by King?"

He swung his halberd, causing a fountain of blood to erupt as if it were raining.

"You are still an unstable factor and must be destroyed," the general replied nonchalantly. "Activate Plan A."

"Hmm?" Ray sensed a faint danger in the air; the surrounding temperature rose rapidly, and the ground began to melt almost instantly.

"This… this."

His heart skipped a beat as he teleported using Space Mastery just in the nick of time.

In his initial position, the ground instantly turned to charcoal, and the other soldiers melted like butter.

"A ray gun?" Ray, now atop a random building, looked at the devastation with a mix of fear and disbelief. "How did they get their hands on a ray gun!?"

Before he could ponder further, a flaming stick hurtled toward him.

"Hmm?" Ray caught the stick effortlessly, but his hand felt a burning pain. Before he could react, his entire body was engulfed in flames.

"Did you get him? If something goes wrong, I won't spare your organisation," the military general said, a faint smirk curling at the corner of his lips.

A bald man, short in stature and with a bent back, responded lightly, "Don't worry, General. Ray won't escape today. He should have been hit by my flames and sustained at least some injuries."

"Good." He nodded while watching the burning flames, deep in thought.

At that moment, another blaze ignited brightly, instantly frying many soldiers.

"Boss!" Greg called out worriedly. His entire body was surrounded by flames, but unlike Ray, he was completely unharmed. The flames seemed to strengthen and support him, killing all the soldiers near him.

"Who is he?" The military general narrowed his eyes.

"He is a powerful Awakener from this city. According to the seer, he is an A-class Awakener."

"Oh, A-class. Still, he cannot change the situation."

The general shook his head.

As the flames slowly extinguished, Ray emerged entirely unharmed.

"It's time to end it all," Ray mumbled, creating a portal in front of him before immediately teleporting to the turrets that were aiming at him.

"This… he can teleport?" The general's eyes widened with terror. "Bald monkey, didn't you say Ray didn't have such abilities?"

"We don't know," the bald man replied nervously.

According to the seer, Ray was not supposed to have such an ability.

"I will handle him and protect the turrets," said the figure covered in a black cloak, the voice indistinguishable from gender.

"Good, as long as you can kill Ray. We will officially recognize the organisation." the general laughed ferociously.
