Location Earth Global Cities Zerion no longer fought. He executed. He floated above cities like a god with no soul, a reaper in the sky. The world's armies tried everything missiles, lasers, experimental weapons, even nukes. Nothing touched him. Rome The Vatican bell tolled once before it was flattened by an invisible shockwave. Pilgrims fell to their knees as blood rained from the heavens. Zerion landed in Saint Peter's Square. He raised one hand the sky split in half. Every human within 6 miles eyes exploded, bones crushed from the pressure alone. Statues crumbled. History turned to rubble. Manila, Philippines Zerion drifted toward Quezon City next. Children playing in the streets vanished incinerated in a blink. Jeepneys twisted like scrap. Malls collapsed in on themselves as if gravity had been inverted. Zerion touched down in Rizal Park. People screamed and ran. He didn't move. His aura alone lifted bodies into the air then detonated them mid-flight, splattering red across marble and stone. A mother held her child. Zerion looked into her eyes… and snapped her spine with a blink. The child screamed. "Let them see. Let them remember." Moscow The Kremlin erupted into flames, not from bombs but from the screams of its own citizens bursting into fire. No trace of military defense lasted more than seconds. Red Square ran red with actual blood. Atlas Vale Earth Orbit His suit cracked and broken, bleeding inside the Dreadlight armor, Atlas watched the world fall apart in real time.
"We're losing… every second." Stella, breathing hard, watched the stream from Cairo where soldiers fought bravely, only to be split in half by a single thought from Zerion.
"Atlas," she whispered, tears in her eyes, "he's killing them… like animals."
"No." Atlas said. "Worse. He's worse .. worse he kills rampage."
New York City Final Strike Zerion raised both arms. His body pulsed with black lightning, drawing from the deaths of millions.
Then, he roared "YOU ARE MINE!" A blast unlike anything before burst from his chest. It traveled around the entire planet in seconds. Buildings exploded, oceans parted, animals screamed and died, people in Canada, Brazil, Japan, Africa fell to the ground, bleeding from every hole in their heads. Zerion was beyond a villain. He was a mass extinction event in human form.
