162: Pitch Black Prequel: The Return

"Bang-bang-bang——!!!"

Missiles were fired into Leo's body, exploding inside, wounds healing again and again, and more and more 'super-smelt' metal fragments were buried in it.

This phenomenon is – involvement.

"Boom!"

Bombarding a missile into Leo's body again, Bai Hua murmured the number.

“——173。”

There are already 173 missiles of 'super-type' metal that have been involved in Leo's body, but that regenerative ability has not weakened the orientation in the slightest, but has caused Leo's other instinct as an intestinal animal to explode.

- Evolution.

No, to be precise, [mutation], every species has such an instinct, in order to adapt to the environment, in order to survive more conveniently, instinctively let its own genes change, so as to grow new organs, or change its own appearance, so as to adapt to the environment.

Of course, this kind of mutation cannot be changed by a single individual, and involves the wrong replication of cells, chromosomal structural variations, and other factors, usually through generations of inheritance, and finally produces beneficial mutated individuals, which is for evolution.

This is an extremely complex process, and the amount of mutant genes, the recombination structure, and the survival rate of mutant cell division make it impossible for this mutation to occur in a single individual.

However, the gastaloids, or arazoan viruses, are enough to break this impossibility and achieve the ultimate miracle.

The unreasonable rate of cell division and the incomprehensible ability to regenerate make it possible for any gastar to 'evolve'.

Not to mention, constantly facing the same environment, cells are constantly dividing and reorganizing all the time.

Thus, Leo evolved.

As the bombardment and body penetrated, its fur was spliced together as if steel had been smelted, forming a thick armor.

The heat that is enough to raise the ambient temperature to the burning level is not emitted, but is locked inside the body.

And at this moment, those ballistics that were accelerated by Bai Hua could no longer cause damage to it.

At the same time, new ways of attacking were obtained.

"Woohoo——!"

The monstrous jaws opened, and a terrifying concentration of heat energy was a special secretion, compressed in the mutated organs.

In the next moment, the red gold light shot out at a speed exceeding the speed of sound, directly dissolving the No. 36 megalith, which was several kilometers away, along with the battle line formed by the Self-Defense Forces and the people's police.

"Boom ——!!!"

The mushroom cloud rises, and the shock wave of the heat of the carrier spreads.

didn't care that the distant front was completely wiped out, and Bai Hua fell from the sky.

"Tsk, that way, you don't have to expect the 'super-metal' to be supported."

Seeing that the twin knives in his hands were shattered to the point that they could not be used, he sighed helplessly and pulled out the last long sword.

"However, the amount of 173 should be enough."

A large amount of 'super-sparkle' metal is swept into Leo's body, but it can only suppress the regeneration of a piece of the staying area, and although it has an effect on Leo, it cannot suppress the overall regeneration ability.

Even, if left alone, Leo may develop antibodies to the 'super', or excrete the 'super-iron' fragments from the body.

Looking at the huge monster in front of him, Bai Hua smiled bitterly.

"It should be said that it is worthy of the protogastal of stage five······ Is it? ”

In just 20 minutes, it made an evolution that would take other species a hundred years to achieve.

Now, on the contrary, we should be glad that this evolution is not aimed at the suppression of the '' metal, but the enhancement of defense.

"Then, whether it's life or death, it depends on this blow."

As he spoke, he made a sword move.

Cold sweat slid down his cheeks, and he was obviously not very sure about this move.

After all, he had only used this trick once after learning it, and he hadn't even used it after that.

After all, this trick is too chicken.

"[Divine Sword Technique: Sonic Strike]!"

The sword in his hand seemed to suddenly become heavy, and it was difficult to even hold it, and it stabbed out fiercely.

In an instant, countless ripples were born in the air, and they immediately spread, and all objects except Bai Hua's own existence were enveloped in an invisible force, and began to vibrate with an overclocking that was invisible to the naked eye.

Time passed slowly, and the vibrations continued to affect everything around them.

Including – Leo!

The swaying tentacles paused, and the concentrated heat energy of the giant mouth slowly dissipated, giving the illusion that time had stopped.

One second –

Two seconds –

The eerie atmosphere lasted for a few minutes, and finally, something new.

"Bang-bang-bang-"

One after another, all the trees within two kilometers exploded into pieces, and even the earth did not escape the attack, and the soil, and even the rocks in its depths, were shattered into sand in an instant.

There are no changes, only Bai Hua, who maintains a sword-like appearance, and Leo, who is huge.

The bodies of one large and one small slowly sank into the quicksand.

One minute –

Two minutes –

Until ······

"Woo——!"

A strange chirp sounded, and Leo suddenly began to struggle fiercely, and the armor that had just been mutated and the huge body began to collapse.

Even, the anomalous heat energy that was its means of attack became a factor that accelerated its collapse at this moment.

The 500-meter-tall monster has a nuclear fission all over its body.

Bai Hua knew that this was because the 'super-iron' metal had been shattered into molecules and merged into Leo's cells.

Level 5's regenerative ability was completely suppressed, and Leo couldn't support its huge body and automatically collapsed.

In this way, although [Sonic Strike] cannot deal effective damage to enemies of Leo's level, it can affect ordinary objects in a large area, causing them to shatter, and even causing objects in the designated area to be split into sub-levels.

But, that's not enough.

If you want to kill Leo, there is still one chance left.

"[Divine Domain Fist Method: Thunder Roar]!"

——————————

The pungent smell of gunsmoke, the smell of blood that has not yet dissipated.

Bai Hua stared blankly at the dilapidated building.

Here, it is the heart of Ougouyère.

This is the place where Bai Hua spent his first night in Hakata.

Once, although it was simple and dilapidated, the children cherished this place very much, and it was cleaned.

Now, all that remained were the shattered walls blackened by the flames, and the small amount of blood remaining on the ground.

As if an empty shell of his soul had been robbed, Bai Hua silently walked forward, and the emotion of hatred arose spontaneously, quickly filling his heart and turning into gasoline to drive his body's actions.

You don't have to guess what's going on here.

Those cowards who did not dare to face the original intestines, took advantage of the time of their own extermination of Leo, and came here with weapons to persecute them... No, it's torture.

Bai Hua couldn't believe it, he couldn't understand why those bastards did this, it was obvious that it was already at the point of life and death, it might be the last period of his life, and he didn't think about how to save his life in a crisis, but he used this may be the last time to vent his hatred?

A voice that was so small that it was difficult to perceive suddenly sounded in this world.
