Chapter 21: Creations of the Old Gods 3


A colossal mountain of flesh gradually wriggled and approached.

The body of the Old Gods' creation, fully spread, was over three hundred meters long, with numerous tentacles sprawling like spider webs. As clusters of nauseating tumors spewed out, within the sight of the group appeared creatures with humanoid faces but whose limbs were entirely made of tentacles. Their mouths were like circular suction cups, eyes purely black, faces notably blurred, lacking noses, with only a hollow in the center. As soon as they hatched, they surged forward.

—"Hatchling [Mutation]!"

Da-da-da.

The sound of heavy machine gun fire echoed.

Leon's expression showed a hint of terror as he muttered, "What are these monsters? This isn't scientific!"

Indeed.

This isn't scientific at all.

But it's very magical.

The Old Gods' creation in front of us had been enhanced to an outrageous level in terms of flesh mutation. Su Ziyu watched, frowning, then turned to Pasha next to him and said, "Prepare the missiles."

Let's start with a missile and see.

Whoosh.

Boom!

Accompanied by an extremely violent explosion, the Old Gods' creation used over a dozen tentacles to block the missile. Amidst the explosion, a large amount of flesh fragments scattered, and subsequently, three to five tentacles broke and fell off. However, for the enormous body of the Old Gods' creation, these tentacles were less than one percent of its body; it continued to move its massive body bit by bit closer.

This monster is too big.

Bullets hitting it felt like mere tickles, and Su Ziyu tentatively summoned a thunder strike.

Boom.

An astonishing bolt of lightning descended from the sky.

The colossal body of the Old Gods' creation trembled slightly, a large amount of electric current coursing over its surface. But it only stiffened in place for a moment before quickly recovering, and the charred skin regenerated swiftly.

A truly terrifying regeneration ability!

This monster slightly surpassed Su Ziyu's output capability; the confidence to kill it was less than ten percent.

Boom!

Another explosion sounded.

Leon's exoskeleton power armor activated self-destruct mode, yet the Old Gods' creation merely trembled briefly before continuing its relentless approach.

As the distance gradually closed.

The eerie murmurs soon resurfaced; Su Ziyu was alright, but Pasha next to him couldn't help showing a look of pain, her hands covering her head.

"The Celestial Father will awaken!"

Da-da-da!

The sudden attack caught Su Ziyu off guard; a barrage of bullets was fired toward his position. At some unknown point, a Brotherhood member in exoskeleton power armor appeared, face covered in bulging veins, expression insanely frantic, clutching a heavy machine gun and continuously firing at Su Ziyu, seemingly as if his consciousness had been directly seized by something.

—"Spiritual Protection Field!"

"Careful!" Pasha's startled cry rang out.

Clang.

In that instant, Su Ziyu's figure appeared out of thin air more than ten meters away, followed by a flash of cold light sweeping past. A gush of blood burst from the neck of the man who suddenly fired at him, followed by his hideously contorted head hitting the ground while his body, along with the exoskeleton power armor, collapsed with a thud.

Not good!

This monster can control the consciousness of mortals.

"You all should retreat back," Su Ziyu's gaze was extremely vigilant as he looked at Leon and others, grabbing Pasha nearby and establishing a slight mental connection with her.

—"Mind Barrier!"

At this moment, he couldn't afford to worry about others; barely protecting Pasha with the Mind Barrier was difficult enough.

Leon quivered continuously where he stood.

Just as Su Ziyu was on guard for Leon's sudden attack, Leon's consciousness seemed to recover, shouting, "Get out! Get out of my head!"

He roared, holding the heavy machine gun and shooting madly forward.

Leon's will far surpassed that of others; as a core member of the Brotherhood, he had undergone many extremely demanding trainings, allowing him to succeed in exempting himself from the monster's mental control. However, due to the eerie whispers, he seemed somewhat frenzied.

No.

At this rate, we're going to be completely wiped out.

Seeing the Old Gods' creation approaching even closer, Su Ziyu's mind involuntarily pondered how to respond at this moment.

Should we continue fighting?

Or leave immediately with Pasha?

If only taking one person along, with his abilities, it wouldn't be difficult, using telekinesis flight to leave the island; the Old Gods' creation probably couldn't catch up. But doing so would mean abandoning the members of the Brotherhood—Leon seemed slightly out of control now, holding the heavy machine gun and charging out of cover, shooting furiously at the surging hatchlings.

After a brief contemplation.

Su Ziyu temporarily abandoned the idea of retreat because he still possessed a mighty weapon, which might cause deadly harm to this monster.

But it needed to be used in a rather special location.

There's only one chance!

Su Ziyu turned and looked at Pasha beside him, speaking solemnly: "Use the heavy weaponry to cover me."

"Alright." Pasha nodded without any hesitation.

She then jumped and kicked open the ammo box, somehow pulling out a six-barreled Gatling heavy machine gun, setting it up and firing madly forward, the dense metal storm tearing through those hatchlings, turning them into a field of flesh and debris.
