Chapter 125 The Battle Turns Around

Despite the excruciating pain in their souls, the two persevered until the price wheel entered the torii gate.

Only after the Wheel of Fortune was completely swallowed by the Torii gate did the two of them collapse to the ground.

Seeing the two of them acting like this, Kurokawa Kumaji couldn't help but spit out, "What a pair of useless trash."

"Captain, you know those two guys. Their divine ability is gambling."

"It's already come to this, let's not get our hopes up anymore. Let's hurry up and kill those demons. I still want to go back..."

Before Tanaka Yosuke could finish speaking, the others attacked again.

The minotaurs, who had already charged into the battlefield, inflicted immense damage on the giant sea creatures with every swing of their massive axes.

But those giant sea creatures were no pushovers either; although the minotaur's giant axe could easily tear their bodies apart.

However, whenever the giant axe strikes the body of a giant mutated sea creature, the other giant mutated sea creatures seize the opportunity to pounce on the minotaur.

Even if it meant risking everything, he still managed to tear a wound from the minotaur's body.

If the Wheel Monk who just appeared from the torii gate could join the battle, it should relieve a lot of pressure on the Minotaur.

However, the Wheel of Fortune immediately backfired after leaving the torii gate, leaving the Minotaur somewhat helpless.

After all, two fists can't fight four hands. Even if the minotaurs' attacks can deal heavy damage to those giant mutated marine creatures.

The giant mutated marine creatures did not cause too much damage to the minotaurs with each attack.

However, as time goes by, even minor injuries, if accumulated, can affect the Tauren's combat effectiveness.

Fortunately, even the newly summoned Wheel Monks did not obey their commands and instead turned on them upon appearing.

Even without the help of the Wheel of Fortune, other people can assist the Minotaur in the battle.

Although they can no longer use their ultimate moves to instantly kill those giant sea creatures like they did before.

However, they can still use their powers to assist the minotaurs in battle.

For example, Watanabe Kotaro, even if he can't regenerate the thorn vines, can still regenerate seaweed to block the attacks of giant mutated marine creatures.

Kurokawa Kumaji can also use his special abilities to create pits or spikes to disrupt or throw off the attack rhythm of giant mutated marine creatures.

The seamless teamwork among these individuals reveals that this is not their first time fighting against so many giant mutated marine creatures.

Along with the deaths of those giant mutated marine creatures, Dong Qi also absorbed a considerable amount of unknown energy.

Just as the last giant mutated marine creature died and fell to the ground, the energy gap of one thousand points was actually filled up in a way that Dong Qi never expected.

Next, all Dong Qi needs to do is collect enough metal alloys to upgrade his vehicle again.

Those people were still standing on the high platform built by Kurokawa Kumaji. With such an obvious target, Dong Qi originally planned to use the electromagnetic cannon to launch a sneak attack.

But before Dong Qi could make a move, the earthen platform on which those people were standing collapsed instantly.

Those people never expected the platform beneath their feet to collapse instantly. So, when the platform collapsed, not only the fully armed soldiers, but even the awakened ones like Kurokawa Kumaji were caught off guard.

Although the platform beneath their feet was only about ten meters high, and all of them were fully armed.

Most importantly, the ground below is not hard concrete, but soft soil.

Logically speaking, falling from this height would not cause them much harm.

But they never expected that, with the collapse of the platform, a giant sea creature covered in thorns would emerge from underground.

Dong Qi, who was sitting in his car wrapped in seaweed, couldn't understand what was happening after seeing this scene.

How did that giant marine creature, which looks like a sea urchin, move in the mud and emerge from the ground below the platform?

After the platform collapsed, most of the soldiers who fell from it were extremely unlucky; as they fell, they were directly pierced by the long spikes on the giant mutated sea creature below.

If being stabbed in a vital area results in immediate death, it's better than suffering too much pain. However, for many soldiers, the piercings did not occur in vital areas.

So even though his body has been pierced by spikes, for the time being, the pierced parts of his body will bleed profusely. Although he will feel extremely painful, it is unlikely that he will die in the short term.

Some soldiers could not bear the pain, and some simply picked up their weapons and, enduring the excruciating pain, took their own lives.

The remaining, luckier soldiers, though falling from the platform, were not pierced by the long spikes of the giant mutated sea creature.

However, after falling from a great height and landing on the ground, he suffered multiple injuries, but even so, he managed to save his life.

Before they could even rejoice, after the giant mutated marine creature burst from the ground, many smaller mutated marine creatures immediately emerged from the underground pit.

Before the heavily wounded soldiers could react, countless small, mutated marine creatures had already rushed to their side.

Even as they plummeted from the sky, gripping their weapons tightly, it was all in vain against so many small, mutated marine creatures at close range.

No one present expected that humanity, which had initially held an absolute advantage, would suffer such severe casualties.

Apart from those few awakened members of the Divine Guard, only a very few were exceptionally lucky; they were thrown into the distance by the soldiers during the fall and survived unharmed.

Dong Qi never expected that in just a short moment, the situation on the battlefield would take such a dramatic turn.

Looking at the soldiers he had brought, who were almost completely wiped out, Kurokawa Kumaji's anger was so intense it could burn through the entire planet.

However, because they had just used their powers at a high intensity to kill those giant mutated marine creatures, neither Kurokawa Kumaji nor the other members of the God's Guard were in good condition.

Although he was not yet exhausted to the point of being unable to fight, both his superpowers and his body could no longer support high-intensity combat.

At this point, the only thing they were certain of was that if they chose to flee the battlefield immediately, they should be able to escape unscathed.

However, killing this giant mutated marine creature that has just emerged from the ground may require a great deal of effort, or even a desperate fight.

Just as Kurokawa Kumaji was still deciding whether to make a strategic retreat or fight to the death to kill the giant mutated marine creature,

One after another, giant marine creatures burst from the ground. In less than a minute, seven or eight giant mutated marine creatures had appeared around.

The minotaur, already badly wounded, was dragging the corpses of the last giant mutated sea creature back to the torii gate after slaying it.

After those giant mutated marine creatures broke out of the ground again, the Minotaur became an instant sensation.

The literal meaning is reddish-brown.

The skin, originally yellowish-brown, was stained red by the blood flowing from the wound, but only a small part of the skin was stained red, and it was only a brownish-red.

But after seeing so many giant mutated marine creatures appear again, its eyes first turned red, and then the skin on its entire body gradually began to turn red.

As the minotaur's skin gradually turned crimson, streaks of blood mist began to rise from some areas of his skin.

The minotaur then used the giant mutated sea creature he was dragging as a weapon, brandishing its corpse as he charged forward without regard for anything else.

If the battles when the minotaurs wielded giant axes still showed some discernible patterns and combat techniques...

At this moment, the minotaur, wildly waving the giant mutated marine creature's corpse in his hand, had already entered a state of madness.

The battle at this point was completely chaotic; the giant mutated marine creature corpse he was holding was smashed in half by it.

Upon discovering that the giant mutated marine creature's corpse in his hand had rendered it useless as a weapon, the red-tongued minotaur simply discarded it and did not return to search for the giant axe placed near the torii gate.

The minotaur charged headlong at the nearest giant mutated sea creature without hesitation, even though the creature was covered in spikes.

The minotaur, whose hands were now flushed red, seemed to have lost all feeling of pain, even as his palms were pierced by sharp spikes.

The Red-Warm Minotaur not only didn't stop, but instead grabbed the long spike piercing his palm and pulled hard.

After realizing he couldn't pull it off the giant mutated sea creature, the Red-Warm Minotaur stubbornly held the giant mutated sea creature up despite the long spikes piercing his palm.

He then used this giant mutated marine creature as a weapon, directly wielding it to attack other mutated marine creatures.

Seeing this scene, not only was Dong Qi, who was hiding in his car, stunned, but Kurokawa Kumaji and the others were also shocked.

What surprised everyone even more was that, perhaps they were already blinded by rage, even though Kurokawa Kumaji and his men had already left the battlefield.

After discovering that the giant mutated marine creature in his hands had broken apart and could no longer be used as a weapon, he realized that it was no longer usable as a weapon.

The minotaur gave a forceful shove, whether by chance or on purpose, it was unclear.

The severed half of the giant mutated marine creature's corpse crashed right into the location where Kurokawa Kumaji and his group were.

After being flung away by the minotaur, the corpse of the giant mutated sea creature shattered into pieces as it flew toward Kurokawa Kumaji.

As luck would have it, a long thorn covered in flesh and blood pierced through one of the God's Guards with remarkable precision.

The member of the Divine Guard whose head was blown off by spikes happened to be the Awakened One who used his special ability to summon the torii gate.

With the death of this awakened one, the torii gate that had stood in the distance gradually began to appear somewhat illusory, and finally, like a mirage, slowly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Although the giant axe next to the torii gate became illusory along with the torii gate, it eventually gradually disappeared.

However, the Minotaur, who were already engaged in a fierce battle at this time, did not disappear along with the torii gate.

Instead, after the torii gate disappeared, they gradually became more frenzied and violent.

If it were true that they would have used other giant mutated marine creatures, using their bodies as weapons in battle...

With the disappearance of the torii gate, the minotaur, who had already fallen into madness, gradually became completely insane.

Even if the target in front of him is covered in spikes, this completely irrational minotaur will still recklessly swing its fists and hammer it head-on.

Even the flesh on his hands was pierced directly by the spikes during the attack.

The minotaur seemed oblivious to the pain and continued its relentless attacks.

After the last giant mutated sea creature was completely killed by the minotaur, there was no good flesh left on the minotaur's body.

Blood has completely stained this battlefield red.

However, by this time, the giant mutated marine creatures that had broken through the ground had all been killed by the completely crazed minotaurs.

But those small, mutated marine creatures that kept emerging from the burrows had already unknowingly climbed onto the minotaur's body.

The battle between the minotaurs and the giant mutated sea creatures had just ended when the smaller mutated sea creatures, as if avenging their kind, devoured the minotaurs' flesh from the calves down.

Having lost its flesh and blood, even with its bones still supporting it, the minotaur could no longer stand and fell to the ground.

Even though the minotaur crushed countless small mutated marine creatures beneath him when he fell, it still managed to kill them.

But in just a few breaths, countless small mutated marine creatures quickly covered the minotaur's entire body.

Accompanied by a "click-clack" sound.

No one expected that even the minotaur's enormous body wouldn't last long before being devoured by those small, mutated marine creatures.

During this process, the minotaurs did not fail to struggle or fight back.

But no matter how much the minotaur struggles, each counterattack can kill countless small mutated marine creatures.

A vast number of small, mutated marine creatures always manage to find the right moment to climb onto the minotaur's body again and then devour his flesh.

Perhaps the bite force of those small, mutated marine creatures was not strong enough to break through the hard skin on the surface of the minotaur's skin.

However, in the process of fighting other giant mutated marine creatures, the minotaur's originally tough skin has been torn open with countless wounds of all sizes.

Once those small, mutated marine creatures climbed onto the minotaur's body, they could easily gnaw on the minotaur's flesh through these wounds.

The scene that unfolded after the small, mutated marine creatures devoured the minotaur's flesh was something no one had expected.

Those small, mutated marine creatures that devoured the flesh and blood of the minotaurs gradually swelled and grew larger among all the human faces.

Originally a small mutated marine creature only the size of an arm, its size has grown to be almost the same as that of a brown bear in the blink of an eye.

After the grown-up mutated marine creatures finished eating the minotaur's corpse, all of them turned red-eyed and looked at the humans lingering on the outside of the battlefield.

After realizing that he might be being watched, Dong Qi decisively closed the car window immediately, completely isolating himself from the outside world and preventing his human presence from leaking out.

Having experienced crossing the sea before, Dong Qi knew that as long as his vehicle was completely sealed, the human presence inside would not leak out.

In addition, all the car windows have anti-peeping features, making it impossible to see inside from the outside.

This way, even if you encounter those mutated marine creatures head-on while hiding inside the car, you can still survive.

Those mutated marine creatures will only treat the vehicle as an inanimate object and will not attack it on their own initiative.

After Dong Qi closed the car window, he subconsciously glanced at the data panel in his mind.

It was discovered that the original energy value of over 5,000 had increased again after the deaths of the minotaurs and the giant mutated marine creatures that appeared later, and the number on the screen had now exceeded 6,000.

Upon seeing this number, Dong Qi suddenly felt an urge to quickly use the electromagnetic cannon to break free from the seaweed's embrace.

Then quickly find a suitable place to collect metal materials, so that you can upgrade your main car again as quickly as possible.

However, Dong Qi was still somewhat hesitant about which item to choose for the next upgrade of his vehicle.

At this point, Dong Qi also realized that the higher the level of his natal car was upgraded, the more shortcomings he needed to make up for.

In a game, the best approach to this situation is not to compensate for existing weaknesses, but to identify your strengths and continuously improve upon them.

But reality is not a game. Even if you are exceptionally strong in one aspect, as long as others know your obvious weaknesses, your life will inevitably be threatened by them.

While Dong Qi was still planning in his mind which upgrade item to choose next,

Those mutated marine creatures with bloodshot eyes began to hunt down the lucky survivors.

Just as Kurokawa Kumaji and the others were preparing to retreat when they realized the situation was not good, Watanabe Kotaro seemed to sense something and quickly formed hand seals.

Then several figures, as if their buttocks had been inexplicably attacked, quickly fled from the distant bushes.

Looking at these other people who had inexplicably appeared here, Kurokawa Kumaji and the others felt as if they had seen saviors.

Under the wary gazes of the other group, he quickly ran to their side and immediately said, "I am the commander of the Divine Guard. I have been ordered by the High Priest to arrest the fugitive. The fugitive is now trapped by us."

But for some unknown reason, they were suddenly attacked by some mutated marine creatures.

We have killed the giant mutated marine creatures, but due to overexertion, we have temporarily lost our fighting ability and need to rest and recover.

We earnestly request your assistance in the battle. We only need to eliminate or hold off the attacks of those small mutated marine creatures for a while, giving us some time to rest and recover.

"Once we apprehend the criminal and bring him back to the Third Base, I will report your accomplishments to the High Priest."
