Primordial Expanse: I have the Strongest Talent!

Chapter 231: Becoming famous (2)



The answer was no, so Alex was all that they had to rely on, or else they were all fucked.

And hope flickered across the viewer's and the onlooker's eyes as they witnessed Alex's bold act.

He jumped high into the sky, landing onto the beast's back as it tried to escape.

Commodus's voice trembled with a mix of excitement and anxiety as he narrated the events unfolding before him. The viewers, now in the hundreds of billions, hung on his every word, their hearts pounding in unison with his.

Some of the viewers could only listen over the radio as they were preoccupied or secretly listening at work, so his narration was very helpful to them.

"The beast is transforming! This is… this is unbelievable! It's growing wings, and it's ascending higher into the atmosphere. Alex is still holding on, folks! He's not giving up!"

Commodus adjusted the focus, his hands shaking as he did so. The camera zoomed in on the intense struggle high above Ceres-9's surface.

The beast's massive wings flapped with powerful gusts, and Alex's figure, a small but fiery silhouette, clung to its back with relentless determination.#

"Alex is trying to break through its scales! He's using all of his strength, just like before, but it seems to be too much for him! The beast's skin is thicker and stronger now that it's at C+ rank. I can't believe what I'm seeing!"

The stronger awakened onlookers watched intently, some even taking to their spaceships for a better view.

For seasoned mercenaries like them, it was wise to purchase their own private spaceship to make travel to missions convenient, as it got rid of the need of any waits for public spaceship transport or the likes of it.

Some students with relatively well off families, or who had simply gotten lucky with their money, also had their own spaceships.

Commodus was one of those lucky students.

Commodus, who started the livestream, had a keen eye and quick reflexes, as he seemed to have noticed the changes before most of the other viewers and awakened.

When he spotted the wings protruding from the beast's back, he immediately returned to his spaceship to continue the stream from orbit.

His efforts ensured that the viewers had the best possible view of the fight that was soon to ensue in the sky.

And with the incredible zoom technology on the camera he was using, the resulting video feed was crisp.

As the beast climbed higher, the sky around them began to darken. The camera struggled to keep up with their rapid ascent, but Commodus's commentary filled the gaps.

"They're entering the upper atmosphere! Alex must be running out of oxygen. How is he still going? This is insane!"

Suddenly though, the screen went red as a blinding light erupted from Alex's location.

Viewers were doused in confusion when the camera was blocked by the blinding light, obscuring the climactic moments of the battle.

Commodus instinctively shielded his eyes, his voice raising in pitch.

"I can't see anything! The light — it's so bright! Alex must have used some ultimate technique or something. This is it folks, this is the final push!"

Commodus desperately tried to switch the camera's view to a different wavelength to phase out the bright light, but even when he did, the viewers still couldn't see anything but the blinding red glow.

'Strange…' He thought, but he didn't make much more of it than that.

The viewers could only imagine the scene as Commodus continued to describe the blinding spectacle, barely able to even see what was happening with his own C tier eyes.

His voice carried the weight of the moment, filled with awe and desperation, hoping that Alex was the one to win this gruelling fight.

"The flames are everywhere! I can feel the heat even from here! It's like a supernova! Alex has poured everything he has into this attack!"

Of course, Commodus couldn't have actually known that Alex had done this, he was only guessing.

He just turned out to be correct in his guess.

For what felt like an eternity, the light persisted, obscuring the battle form view. Commodus kept talking, his words a lifeline for the anxious viewers.

Then, as suddenly as it started, the light began to fade. What seemed like an eternity only lasted a few seconds.

Commodus squinted, his eyes adjusting to the dimming brightness. The camera's focus slowly returned, revealing the aftermath of the epic confrontation.

"Oh my god… The beast — it's falling! It's plummeting back to the surface! There's a massive hole through its head! Alex did it! He did it!"

The chat exploded with messages, a torrent of relief, joy and disbelief flooding the screen.

'Is this real life!?'

'Did a D- rank really just take out a C+ rank, alone!?'

Commodus's voice cracked with relief as he continued to describe the scene.

"The beast is dead. It's really dead, but… but where's Alex? I can't see him! Where did he go?"

Panic began to seep into his voice as he scanned the area for any sign of the young warrior. The camera panned frantically, capturing the burning corpse of the beast as it fell to the ground. Dust and debris flew in all directions upon impact, creating a massive crater where the beast landed.

"Everyone, keep looking! We have to find him! He has to be alive!"

Commodus wasn't really concerned about Alex in the heartfelt, grateful way.

No, he was just worried that he wouldn't get to interview the hero and victor of Ceres-9's most defining battle in decades.

That would really boost his numbers, especially the number of zeros in his bank account…

Down below, the soldiers and mercenaries sprang into action. They raced towards the crash site, their faces grim.

The soldiers were probably the only people on the ground who really felt the impact of this fight, and Alex's disappearance.

As awakened who worked directly under the federation itself, they were privy to information the mercenaries and students were not.

And they knew that the human race desperately needed extraordinary talents like Alex in the upcoming war against the Red Demon race…

"Where the fuck is he!?"

But even the commander of the whole base felt frustrated by Alex's disappearance.
