The Record of Unusual Creature

The whole grand temple complex was shaking violently.

The ancient temple on the central highlands had been standing in the heart of the ancient city of Ertos for nearly 10,000 years. Neither the wind nor the passage of time had fundamentally shaken its foundation. Even as the city lay in ruins, the streets went into a state of dilapidation, and even the words on the granite slabs were worn away and flattened by the wind, the magnificent complex still maintained its proud upright posture. It was as stubborn and strong as its material.

However, that day, the ancient temple was finally meeting its end.

The negative energy spread outward from the central area of the temple. Solid granite masonry quickly became as fragile as rotten soil due to the energy-based attack. The heavy mass of the great pyramid weighed on the crumbling columns and walls, gradually causing the entire structure to crack through the middle in a terrifying way. Huge slabs and columns crumbled down the pyramid’s slope. The sound of the rock breaking apart from the depths of the pyramid sounded like thunder rumbling in the depths of the earth. At last, the great pyramid came crashing down with a thunderous crash.

The collapse of the main building immediately affected the surrounding buildings. Smoke billowed from the two little pyramids and several of the arched palaces. Soon, they collapsed in a series of crashes. Clouds of dust rose from the uplands, blocking out the sun, as though an active volcano had erupted in the middle of the city. The colossi, who had been restless around the upland, fell silent for a moment. They raised their heads in unison and stared at the crumbling temple in eerie silence.

Flashes of light flared through the smoke accompanied by loud explosions, and a few figures emerged from the center of the smoky area. It was Y’zaks and the others. They went all the way to the edge of the uplands, then stopped a hundred meters or so from the colossi, watching for any movement from the colossi. They kept an eye on the center of the field.

The colossi did not seem to notice the intruders. They still stared up at the higher grounds, standing still.

A gust of wind swept over the uplands and finally blew away the thick dust. Over the ruins of the great pyramid, which had collapsed into disrepair, two swarms of bats were whirling rapidly and creating sharp, piercing sounds. Powerful electric current bounced between the bats. Shrouded in a crimson cloud, Vivian was standing in the middle of the bat swarms, with huge wings spreading out behind her.

Next to Vivian, Hao Ren was also floating in the sky. A pale blue halo hung around him. It was the glow of the antigravity field that the MDT brought. In fact, Hao Ren did not like air combat very much, but he was now facing the Malevolence, so he had no better choice.

Anyway, up to that point, he had gone through a hundred battles. His experience in facing the enemy mid-air had gradually increased, hence he could still cope.

As for Lily, she had to stay on the ground. One, she would assume the duties of holding up the fort, and second, because of her physical flexibility, the obstacles on the ground did not affect her very much.

The Malevolence was floating hundreds of meters away from Hao Ren and Vivian. The crimson mist around her kept surging, repairing her arm, which had just been shot off by Hao Ren.

The moment the pyramid collapsed, Hao Ren seized the opportunity to shoot. It actually hit the target, and although it failed to kill the Malevolence completely, it did weaken some of its power, which brought at least one piece of good news: the enemy was not invincible.

The divinity that the Malevolence carried was an unexpected situation. Once there was divinity involved, many things had to be replanned.

Vivian had a certain effect of suppression on all her Malevolences. This suppressive effect was derived from the power of the goddess of creation, so she was an important force in the battle.

Lily had eaten a large amount of divine food, which Hao Ren brought back from Raven 12345’s place. She had also eaten a lot of heavenly food when she was a guest in Raven’s place, so she was the one with the strongest divinity in the family after Hao Ren.

Together with Hao Ren, who was a demigod, the three of them were the best people to fight against the “divine Malevolence”.

As for the rest of them, they certainly had a certain degree of combat capability. However, they were now facing a crazy creature. It would be too dangerous for the weaker one to remain on the battlefield, so they had to take a back seat for the time being.

Y’zaks and Lorrisa were very strong, but for now, they were only able to serve as bodyguards at the rear.

“Hao Ren, this Malevolence is different,” Vivian quickly said as she calmed down. “She has divinity. Can you deal with it?”

“She just has a divine quality,” Hao Ren whispered as he opened his Dimensional Pocket. “She’s far from God.”

Although the Malevolence had divinity, Hao Ren did not feel too pressured.

He did not believe that a Malevolence tainted with negative energy was truly divine. He had seen powerful demigods like Lockmarton, and also the tip of the iceberg of Raven 12345’s true powers. He had a better sense of power that was beyond imagination. The moment he came into contact with the Malevolence, he knew that it was not as strong as one would think.

Divinity only gave the monster some special “authorities” that allowed her to be immune to the instant effects of psionic rays. Divinity did not necessarily mean absolute power. It may have the power to destroy everything, but it may only have half that power when it came to combat. It was clearly written in the work manual.

Hao Ren put away his psionic gun and focused all his energy on his Dimensional Pocket. Curling up his lips, he said, “It’s just immune to instant death. Since it can’t be killed instantly, I know what to do!”

Before he finished speaking, the Malevolence roared like a wild beast, and an endless sea of black and red appeared in the sky, forming a terrible sight. It looked like a sea of blood hanging upside down in the sky. The sea of blood even completely obscured the collapsing, chaotic boundaries around Ertos. After a pause of one or two seconds, the sea of blood poured down.

On the surface of the earth, Y’zaks and Lorrisa immediately deployed a Demonic Barrier and Sacred Flame Barrier to protect Hessiana as well as Rollie, who was trembling badly at that point. Meanwhile, little Y’lisabet looked up into the air with wide, twinkling eyes. “Oh… Uncle Ren’s Cannonical Miracle!!”

Behind Hao Ren, the Dimensional Pocket had been completely open, revealing numerous laser gun turrets, missile silos, and fire turrets. The next moment, waves of fire and explosion met the sea of blood, which was pouring from the sky.

Hao Ren’s Dimensional Pocket could only open a 500-m access channel—but that was not a restriction. He gave the MDT the right to open the passageway and allowed it to constantly shuttle across the battlefield, carrying only one piece of artillery and positioning it within a range of 500 m each time. The weapons were immediately moved to a new place once they were fired. With the MDT’s unlimited teleportation, the formation of artillery was not much delayed. It spread with extraordinary magnificence.

Those fire turrets all had functions for aerial combat, so they were considered Hao Ren’s treasure. Although he said it was easy, the battle cost him a fortune.

The result was a billion turrets and endless glory.

Half the city of Ertos was enveloped in a thunderstorm, with intense flashes and explosions raging over nearly a third of the city. Above the blast zone was a sea of blood, which had been summoned by the Malevolence. Lorrisa heard Y’lisabet’s excited scream in the explosion, and asked, “Cannonical Miracle? Is that Hao Ren’s miraculous power?”

The little demoness nodded her head vigorously and said, “Uh-huh!”

Two young girls from different worlds had reached a consensus on the same misunderstanding.

In the midst of the explosion that covered the sky, two huge bolts of lightning ripped through the sky before they hit the black and red cyclones in the middle of the battlefield.

Vivian had fought back.

A moment later, a loud howl came from the ruins of the grand temple. A huge, majestic silver “wolf” stepped out on the collapsed slabs. It looked up at the sky, and white light was flowing from its mouth.

“Awooooo!”

A devastating blast of divine energy blasted through the center of a cloud.

“This is truly a miracle,” Y’zaks said softly, looking up at the scene.
