Capítulo 352: The Monster Humanity Needs

Reality cracked again before Adam, the raining shard blinding and forcing his eyes shut after Luna vanished. When he reopened them, he found himself outside, floating behind Prometheus.

In a second, he scanned his surroundings, noticing the fuming ground and remains of vaporised creatures. He also smelled the fresh scent of unpolluted air for the first time in a while. And finally, he saw the enormous terror lying under Prometheus' sitting figure.
