26: Chapter 25: Crushing the Twin Scorpions, the King of Death Valley Changes Hands

Squeak!! Squeak!!

Looking at Godzilla's terrifying physique, the two Twin Scorpions let out another hiss, like a sharp drill, crazily piercing Luo Yu's eardrums.

Obviously, this was the unique mental pressure belonging to S-rank creatures. If an ordinary person were here, their brain would probably turn into mush in an instant.

Unfortunately, Luo Yu, who shared a small portion of Godzilla's abilities, just frowned and raised his hand to rub his ears.

"Quite loud."

Almost subconsciously, Luo Yu stood behind Godzilla.

At this moment, Godzilla, with its massive eighty-six-meter body standing in the black desert, faced the provocation of the two S-rank Twin Scorpions without anger. Instead, it lowered its head, and in those vertical pupils, a trace of anthropomorphic... mockery appeared?

That's right, mockery.

It was just like looking at two tiny, claw-waving ants.

There was no helping it; after its evolution, Godzilla had just swept through everything, and that had merely been a simple warm-up.

"Squeak—!"

Seeing that they were being ignored by Godzilla, the two S-rank Twin Scorpions, which already possessed some consciousness, were enraged!

The scorpion on the left launched its attack first.

It suddenly burrowed into the sand, its huge body disappearing in an instant, leaving only a rolling sand pit on the ground.

Following closely, the scorpion on the right waved its two giant pincers and charged directly at Godzilla, attempting to draw fire.

One in front and one behind, one in the open and one in the dark—this was the tactic of the Twin Scorpions, a fatal combination that had once killed five SS-Class Awakened.

"Watch your feet!"

Luo Yu warned instinctively.

Hearing this, Godzilla ignored the feint from the front entirely.

It simply lifted its right foot slowly, paused in the air for half a second, and then brought it crashing down.

Boom!!!

It stomped down heavily!

It wasn't stepping toward any target, but directly onto the open ground in front of it.

The terrifying power, mixed with radiation waves, exploded instantly.

The entire desert churned violently like boiling water, and a visible shockwave spread crazily along the underground, causing the sand layer for several kilometers around to collapse instantly!

"Squeak!!!"

A shrill scream came from underground.

The scorpion that had attempted the sneak attack was forcibly "shaken" out of the sand by the violent shockwave.

It was launched into the air like a salted fish, its golden carapace cracked in several places, and green blood sprayed wildly.

Well! The so-called burrowing tactic was nothing but a joke in the face of absolute power.

At this moment, the scorpion that had been feinting from the front arrived.

It waved its giant pincers, which were strong enough to snap a tank in half, and fiercely clamped toward Godzilla's knee—there was no helping it; it was only thirty meters tall, so even if it jumped, it could only reach the knee.

Clang!

A loud sound of metal clashing rang out.

The scorpion's pincers clamped onto the scales on Godzilla's leg, sending sparks flying everywhere.

And then... there was no then.

Godzilla's scales didn't even have a white mark left on them.

The scorpion was a bit stunned.

It was an S-rank mutant beast, right?

And it had delivered an all-out strike capable of snapping alloy steel, right?

Godzilla lowered its head, looking at the scorpion that was giving it a "pedicure," and puffed two streams of scorching white gas from its nostrils.

"Roar (Is that it?)"

Accompanied by a roar, Godzilla suddenly moved.

It didn't use its Atomic Breath, nor did it use its claws; it simply swung its thick, tens-of-meters-long tail casually.

Whoosh—!

The tail tore through the air, emitting a shrill sonic boom.

The scorpion in front hadn't even reacted before it felt its vision spinning.

Slap!!!

It was just like swatting a fly.

That thirty-meter-long S+ rank scorpion was sent flying away by a single tail swipe.

It traced a beautiful parabolic arc in the air, flew several kilometers away, and finally smashed heavily into a black stone mountain, collapsing the entire mountain.

Silence.

A deathly silence.

Seeing this scene, Luo Yu, standing not far behind Godzilla, couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

"Is this... an S+ rank mutant beast?"

"Is this... the despair that wiped out an SS-Class squad?"

This was too weak, right?

No, it wasn't that they were weak.

It was that Godzilla was just too strong now.

Growth stage, eighty-six meters—this wasn't just a crushing of size, but a dimension-reduction strike from the "king of monsters."

"Squeak... squeak..."

The scorpion that had been shaken out of the ground struggled to stand up.

Looking at its companion in the distance, whose life or death was unknown, the fierce light in its eyes finally turned into fear.

To put it bluntly, they were creatures mutated under nuclear radiation and had resistance to nuclear weapons.

After evolving to S-rank, they were no longer simple, mindless killing creatures created by nuclear radiation.

Now, facing Godzilla, the gap was truly enormous, and it wanted to run.

It acted as soon as it thought of it; the scorpion's eight legs flailed crazily, wanting to burrow into the sand to escape the battlefield.

"Want to run?"

Luo Yu shouted: "Godzilla, full firepower, send them on their way."

"Roar!"

Before the roar had even faded, the bony dorsal fins on Godzilla's back began to charge, erupting with dazzling blue light.

The next second, Godzilla opened its mouth.

This time, there was no charging at all.

[Spiral Heat Ray]!

Boom!!!

A spiral-shaped blue beam of light instantly erupted.

Because the energy density was too high, the surrounding air appeared visibly distorted.

Because the speed was too fast, it accurately hit the scorpion that had just burrowed into the sand in the blink of an eye.

Boom!!

Accompanied by a deafening roar, facing the full-firepower Godzilla, the scorpion didn't let out a single scream and went very peacefully.

Especially after the beam pierced through its body, it still retained its momentum, plowing a huge gully into the sand.

Following this, Godzilla turned its head and looked at the pile of rubble in the distance.

There, the other severely injured scorpion was trying to play dead.

Godzilla couldn't be bothered to walk over and simply opened its mouth again.

Boom!

The second Spiral Heat Ray.

That pile of rubble was instantly engulfed by blue light, and a huge mushroom cloud rose into the air.

Two shots.

Merely two breaths from Godzilla at full firepower.

Two S-rank mutant beasts that had dominated Death Valley for decades and left the military helpless were solved by Godzilla like dry wood breaking in a storm.

[Ding! Pet beast killed S+ rank mutant beast × 2, evolution progress + 8.5%]

[Current evolution progress: 20.7%]

Accompanied by the system's prompt sounding in his mind.

"Whew!!"

Luo Yu let out a long breath, feeling absolutely exhilarated inside.

This was true power.

Whatever tactics, whatever coordination—in the face of absolute power, all beings were equal.

More importantly, Godzilla in its growth stage was even more powerful than he had imagined?

Although it couldn't be called the king of monsters yet, it could be called Godzilla.

"Godzilla."

The next second, sensing the feedback from Godzilla, Luo Yu shouted.

"Time to eat!"
