Traveler of the River of Time and Space

Chapter 20: The Old Gods’ Creation 2


Old Gods.

Do Divine Spirits really exist in this world? What exactly are the Old Gods? Why did they create such horrific monsters?

Although he didn't see the creature on the seabed clearly, with just a fleeting glance, Su Ziyu felt a bit creeped out, like the feeling that comes from trypophobia. That creation of the Old Gods was estimated to be several hundred meters long, its numerous tentacles covered with dark red suckers, resembling an octopus. Yet, in the center was a gigantic mouth like a black hole; its exact appearance was not completely visible since its body was still hundreds of meters beneath the sea.

This Wasteland World is not as simple as imagined.

Initially, Su Ziyu thought Energy Level 1 merely signified the presence of some supernatural beings, but he didn't expect this world to be connected with Divine Spirits.

"Go!"

The brief Mental Shock wasn't enough to affect Su Ziyu. If he had encountered this monster when he first arrived in the Wasteland, it would probably have knocked him out cold in one move.

However, now Su Ziyu has greatly enhanced his Spiritual Ability Level, so this degree of Mental Shock only momentarily dazed him.

The psychic barrier protected his will, also resisting the opponent's mental pollution.

——"Multi-legged Beast [Mutant] [Synthetic Monster]!"

A creature suspected to be an Elite Level mutant blocked their retreat path, and Su Ziyu couldn't afford to hold back anymore. Even the creations of the Old Gods were emerging, so there was nothing too shocking about a man who could wield Lightning Power.

——"Thunder Strike!"

Boom, boom, boom.

Amidst the crowd's stunned looks, Su Ziyu reached out towards the Heaven, and an astonishing lightning bolt descended directly from the sky, striking the Multi-legged Beast before him into a heap of charcoal.

The creature's movement speed wasn't fast.

For Su Ziyu, this type of enemy is easy to kill because he doesn't lack powerful attacking means.

"Gained 2 Source Power Value."

Su Ziyu leaped over the Multi-legged Beast's corpse and shouted to the few people still stunned behind him, "Why are you still standing there? Run!"

"That monster is about to emerge from the sea."

Pasha was the first to follow.

Leon carried an iron box and quickly caught up, and just as the group had left the carrier not long ago, thick tentacles gradually appeared on the surface of the sea.

"Oh my god!"

"What the hell is this thing!"

The numerous tentacles wrapped around the wreckage of the abandoned carrier, with easily a hundred gigantic tentacles by the looks of it. Even more horrifying, beneath its exposed skin seemed to be other creatures' bodies, like assembled from the flesh of countless beings. Its body, merely exposed to the water's surface, already covered more than half of the carrier's deck; if it fully emerged, it would be bigger than the carrier itself.

Though Pasha and the others had fought this monster before, they hadn't actually seen its full appearance. Essentially, they had just been battling these tentacles.

It was Su Ziyu that really provoked the monster!

Because of Su Ziyu's presence, the monster entered the shallow seas from the deep-sea region, and it made bizarre sounds that no one could understand, whispering: "Divinity... consume it!..."

"Unlock... the Celestial Father's... seal..."

"Old Gods' descent..."

"Dominate everything..."

The monster's body was simply too massive.

Perhaps it's easier for it to move in the sea, but once near the shallow sea region, its enormous size became a burden, making it hard to catch up with the people in front.

"This..."

"This is simply a mythical monster," a burly man murmured.

Su Ziyu slowed his pace slightly and said in a deep voice, "It's originally something from mythology."

"A creation of the Old Gods."

"Heaven knows why such a monstrous thing exists here!"

Isn't this the modern Plane?

Su Ziyu always thought his main adversaries would be those irradiated mutants, but now it seems there are many mysteries in this world he doesn't know.

The group retreated quickly.

Pasha wanted to say many things as she followed Su Ziyu, but for now, she could only hold back and speak while running: "There's our campsite over there."

"It's an abandoned military base."

"There are shelters for defense."

The creation of the Old Gods seemed extremely eager for Su Ziyu; at this moment, it had climbed halfway onto the beach, although not quite adapted to land movement, yet it persistently pursued them.

Though its movements appeared slow, its massive size made it not cumbersome.

Old Gods?

What are they?

Leon pondered the words spoken by Su Ziyu, but now wasn't the time to ask these questions. What he witnessed today had overturned his previous beliefs. Not only did he see someone control lightning, but he also saw the true face of that monster.

Initially, they assumed it was a mutated giant octopus, but now they've seen a bloodthirsty mouth with a diameter over thirty meters.

Tens of thousands of sharp teeth arranged in a spiral pattern.

Leon merely glanced back briefly and felt as if his head had been hit heavily, leaving his entire spirit somewhat dazed.

"Don't look back!"

"That monstrous thing will pollute your spirit!" Su Ziyu warned sternly.

The sight of this monster even gave him the feeling of trypophobia, while others suffered strong mental impacts. The creation of the Old Gods appeared outwardly like an octopus, but its body structure was quite complex. The center was unexpectedly a humanoid head, with countless teeth arranged in a swirling pattern, packed densely together. Behind it were tendril-like appendages, numerous organs and flesh that couldn't be recognized, seemingly made from the shells of numerous creatures.

An abandoned military base gradually came into view.

Pasha quickly caught up with Su Ziyu and said while running, "There's still one missile in the camp! I'm going to fetch it now!"

For some reason.

After Su Ziyu appeared, her initial panic seemed to ease significantly, as if she had found a pillar of strength, far less anxious and frightened than at first.

She even remembered the scenes of teaming up against various monsters back when in Southern Cross.

"Quickly go." No time for more words, Su Ziyu nodded directly.

Heavy firepower.

Who knows what level of firepower is needed against such a monster; thankfully, he had previously requested a Fat Man nuke from the Brotherhood.

"Go get the ammunition." Leon casually tossed the box into a corner and shouted.

Beep.

His Exoskeleton Power Armor suddenly opened, followed by Leon pressing some button inside, turning to Su Ziyu and saying, "My Exoskeleton Armor is modified, with a self-destruct device inside."

"The power is close to a conventional missile."

"I'm now setting the self-destruction time."

Leon's Exoskeleton Armor was indeed somewhat different from the others. Su Ziyu glanced at it and said, "Wait a bit. It hasn't come over quite yet."

"Can it be remotely controlled?"

Leon shook his head and said, "No, the timer is at most five minutes."

Clang.

On the other side, two people had already rushed out carrying an ammunition box, while Pasha was carrying a surface-to-ground missile on her shoulder. Her Exoskeleton Armor had been removed, seemingly running out of energy from the Nuclear Fusion Battery. The heavy item didn't burden her at all, and she still had the strength to carry an unknown model of heavy machine gun in another hand.
