143: Thor VS Four-Headed King-Level Monster
Seeing his Fungus Flying Monster cut down by Thunder God in an instant, Qiao Yu didn't feel any anger; instead, an interesting idea suddenly popped into his head.
It was rare for everyone to be gathered like this, so why not create a Fungus Monster Army to compete with the God of Wars of the War God Palace? This would also allow him to gauge his current strength.
Although his physical fitness could reach the Planetary Level at any time, his main source of combat power still lay in having a Fungus Monster Army. No matter how strong an individual was, two fists were ultimately no match for four hands. Hadn't he seen that even the War God Palace had to rely on gang-up tactics to deal with this group of King-level Monster and their subordinates?
As the saying goes, why duel when you can gang up? A single person's strength is ultimately limited.
Through the two halves of the Fungus Monster's body on the ground, Qiao Yu watched as the situation gradually tilted in favor of the War God Palace. Finally, the King-level Monster hiding in the shadows seemed to have reached a consensus.
One by one, they stopped hiding and began to descend onto the battlefield.
The first to appear was the Earth Dragon King. The Earth Dragon King was actually a monster evolved from an earthworm, and its greatest characteristic was its ability to undergo Rebirth from severed limbs, just like an earthworm. Even if it were chopped into a thousand pieces, it still wouldn't die.
However, after this Earth Dragon King evolved, it grew limbs and also gained the ability to manipulate the earth.
As the Earth Dragon King burrowed out of the ground, rows of spikes suddenly erupted from the surrounding terrain, thrusting from beneath the earth toward the God of Wars of the War God Palace.
The Earth Dragon King certainly lived up to its status as a King-level Monster; its offensive capabilities were truly impressive.
Among the hundreds of God of Wars, although most dodged the strike, about a dozen God of Wars with relatively ordinary Movement Techniques were still hit by the impact.
Fortunately, they were still wearing their black god set. Although several gashes were cut into their thighs, the suits negated 90% of the attack, leaving them with only minor skin abrasions.
However, before the God of Wars could catch their breath, a continuous stream of spikes lunged at them once again.
The continuous onslaught forced these God of Wars, who had not yet surpassed the God of War level to reach the Planetary Level, to do nothing but constantly run and dodge.
With the appearance of this Earth Dragon King, King-level Monster from the surrounding cities also began to move out.
A cat demon with nine tails arched its back, looking warily at Thunder God in the sky, though one of its tails was broken.
Judging by its resentful gaze, that tail was likely severed by Thunder God previously; this King-level Monster must be the legendary Nine-life Cat Demon.
At the same time, a Red-skinned Giant Pig about ten meters tall and over thirty meters long bounded out. Upon closer inspection, its red skin was actually made of fiery red scales that emitted a brilliant light under the sun. Moreover, unlike other pig-type monsters whose tails were relatively thin and short compared to their bodies, its tail was thick and long, capable of destroying all surrounding trees with a single swing. A large, curved Black Horn also grew from its forehead.
"Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig!"
The God of Wars of the War God Palace didn't feel particularly shocked upon seeing the Nine-life Cat Demon, but they all gasped when they saw this Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig, whose strength had reached the King Level.
As the name suggests, the scales of the Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig were like those tempered by fire, or rather, their temperature was like fire. As long as this pig had Life Qi, the scales on its body would surge to temperatures of several hundred degrees. There was a high probability that ordinary weapons would melt upon hitting its scales. Of course, this was an ability only obtainable upon reaching the King Level.
Naturally, the closest companion to the Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig was the Ironclad Dragon. Sure enough, not long after the Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig jumped out, an Ironclad Dragon also crawled out from its nest.
"Another King-level?"
"Damn it, has City No. 023 hit a nest of King-level Monster? Why does it feel like there are even more King-level Monster here than in City No. 003?"
The God of Wars of the War God Palace complained about this illogical phenomenon, but as soon as they remembered this was a precursor to a Disaster-level Beast Tide, it instantly felt reasonable again.
There were a total of five King-level Monster in this area. Aside from the Flame Spitter that Thunder God had just slain, the other four King-level Monster had all made their appearance.
"You guys hold off the other monsters; leave these four King-level Monster to me!"
Thunder God shouted from the sky to the God of Wars of the War God Palace on the ground. Everyone nodded, and the movements of their hands became even swifter.
Every move and every style was aimed directly at the weaknesses of these Lord-level Monster.
Hundreds of God of Wars facing off against hundreds of Lord-level Monster and thousands of Beast General Rank Monsters was an awe-inspiring sight. However, with the added presence of the King-level Monster, the monsters' morale soared, pulling the battle back into a stalemate.
Given Thunder God's Realm, dealing with this group of King-level Monster wasn't exactly easy, but it certainly wasn't difficult either. The main issue was that monsters capable of reaching the King Level had traits that made them difficult to kill.
They either had extraordinary defensive capabilities or possessed the ability for Rebirth from severed limbs. The Nine-life Cat Demon was even more of a nuisance; after death, it could lose a tail to return the energy stored within it to itself, achieving a form of resurrection.
However, for Thunder God, this was merely a matter of killing them a few more times. As long as the opponents didn't escape, they could still be dealt with.
With Thunder God tying up those four King-level Monster, the psychological pressure on the God of Wars of the War God Palace was significantly reduced. Although the battle had just been pulled back by the monsters, it was quickly reclaimed.
Both sides were locked in fierce combat, while Qiao Yu acted as a Bystander.
He used fungus to create a Fungus Sofa, leaning back on it while leisurely watching both sides at each other's throats, fighting to the death.
As for why he didn't go help those God of Wars from the War God Palace?
He wasn't some merciful Bodhisattva saving the world. Besides, with Thunder God there, they weren't facing an Emperor-level Monster. If he could fail against just a few King-level Monster, then Thunder God's title as the worlds second strongest person would have been lived in vain.
Thunder God took the initiative to strike at the Earth Dragon King, which was easier to deal with. Another main reason was that the Earth Dragon King possessed Area-of-effect Damage. If the Earth Dragon King wasn't dealt with first, the God of Wars on the battlefield would have to stay distracted to dodge, naturally preventing them from exerting their full strength.
The four King-level Monster were clearly no pushovers either and wouldn't give Thunder God the chance to target them in one-on-one duels.
The Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig was the first to launch an attack. The scales all over its body emitted a dazzling light, and rain falling on it was instantly evaporated into steam.
After its Life Qi, not only did the Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig's surface temperature reach several hundred degrees, but its defensive capabilities also surged.
It acted as a Tank, absorbing damage for the other three King-level Monster so they could have a safe environment to deal damage.
Although the Fire Scale Three-pronged Pig was massive, its speed was not slow at all. Even after gaining the ability to fly, its speed still reached Several times the speed of sound.
