Zuo Dao Becomes a God Starting from American Horror

Chapter 386 The Giant: Behemoth

When John Wick, a former top assassin, appeared before everyone as a Chosen One, all the conflicts vanished.

Whether forced or voluntary, everyone came under his command and united to fight against the monsters' invasion.

In this process, John Wick's exceptional physical abilities, including rapid self-healing and the unique ability to use telekinesis, became the best tools for proselytizing, and the townspeople quickly converted to Apocalyptic believers.

When Ono arrived, John Wick had already cleared a safe zone.

John Wick was wary of the black man who suddenly ran up to him and offered to help him.

Who are you? Are you involved in this disaster?

Such a question is indeed very direct, but the dark muzzle of a gun is intimidating enough.

Ono, however, remained completely unfazed. "I am the head of the God Project—Perfect Gene Project—under the Sacrifice Management Bureau. This disaster..."

As Ono spoke, John Wick's expression changed continuously. When he heard that Ono had opened the emergency exit, his face turned completely grim, and he drew his gun and fired without hesitation.

Bang bang bang! !
Four shots in a row, each hitting its mark.

All of them hit Dr. Ono.

However, this did not kill him, because all four shots hit his limbs.

“You are to blame for the deaths of these people’s loved ones, but you have temporarily received God’s forgiveness, so I will not kill you, but you must be punished.”

The pain from being shot in all four limbs was excruciating for Ono, but he endured it in front of John Wick. "Yes, this, this is my sin, I am here to atone for it."

"Tell me, how will you atone for your sins?"

John Wick coldly put the gun back in its holster and looked at Dr. Ono.

Since it was sent by God, it can only mean that it was God's arrangement and must be useful.

As expected, after quickly treating his injuries, Ono explained to him in detail the Perfect Gene Project under the God Project, including the original gene code as the foundation, and the effects that the Perfect Gene Project would achieve upon completion.

"In theory, I could create a targeted genetic weapon to eliminate them directly at the genetic level, but before that, I have to tell you some bad news that might come up."

Dr. Ono looked serious.

"what?"

"When I was conducting experiments, although I created many failed products, there were also quite a few varieties with special abilities or special characteristics."

Therefore, I sealed them in the laboratory. If those monsters were to break out and absorb matter to develop, their destructive power would be even greater than it is now.

Especially one of them, a near-successful prototype—a embryo of an ultimate beast, a combination of genes from numerous mammals, that I kept in the lab. Its survival rate is very low; it can only be kept alive by that witch's abilities. I'm not sure if it will ever appear, but if it does, you must be prepared.”

"In fact, I still suggest that you retreat and break through with them. This is the best option right now. After all, the efficiency of those flesh worms in generating mist is only around this point. As long as we can get out of here, we will be safe."

Upon hearing this, John Wick did not make a decision immediately. Instead, he pondered for a moment and then asked, "What is the name of that ultimate beast that you fear?"

“I call it Behemoth.”

Behemoth, from the Bible, is said to have been created by God from clay on the sixth day. Indeed, this Leviathan later became the demon king of the original sin of envy, one of the seven deadly sins.

Behemoth, which was born in the same way, was also a colossal beast, but later records are vague about it. Some say it perished together with Leviathan, others say it became food for the Holy Ones, and still others say it fell into hell with Leviathan. There are many different accounts.

Regardless, the fact that it was named after Behemoth shows that Ono recognized the potential of this group of beast embryos.

“In the end, that’s just your guess. Let’s not do that for now. Continue gathering information from the townspeople and wait for an opportunity to break out,” John Wick said.

Ono thought about it and realized that even with the help of the Well of Urd or the current witch's resurrection ability, the Behemoth embryo could not be saved. It could only be barely preserved. In the end, it was just a half-finished product. He had indeed been worrying too much.

John Wick and his men continued their work.

pity.

Ono and others didn't understand that there's a term called Murphy's Law, which states that when a bad possibility arises in your mind, things often go in that direction.

Moreover, there were problems with this whole affair, and it wasn't simply an experimental accident caused by Ono.

……

Ever since.

underground.

graduate School.

The troops repelled the monsters' attack with their powerful firepower, successfully defended the research institute, and advanced to the lower levels. At the same time, they began to gather researchers, experimental materials, and research data in preparation for evacuation.

In the research room, Misty, who had been trapped in a series of measures and suffered from depression, suddenly raised her head.

"I understand, it's not enough, it's not enough..."

Her gaze fell on a corner of a sealed-off compartment equipped with electromagnetic induction and a self-destruct device, and the psychic power that had awakened within her body at some unknown time quietly began to spread out.

The holy water and amulets had no effect on them; no, the effect was masked and the surrounding soldiers couldn't see it!

A dim light shone out, and they all walked by as if it were nothing.

Despite the suppression of numerous sacred objects, Misty managed to break through the chamber using her psychic powers, supported by the voice in her heart.

puff!
The nutrient solution flowed out with a gurgling sound, and from it fell a fist-sized, hairless black sphere, the tender flesh of which could be vaguely seen, like a newborn baby.

Finally, some soldiers noticed.

"Attention! Attention! Something's up!"

He raised his gun and approached.

But then, *smack!*
Misty suddenly collapsed in the cage, her eyes vacant. A beam of earthy yellow light shot out from between her brows and landed directly inside the little cub.

next second.

Just like sulfuric acid corrosion, a hole was melted in the steel floor.

Da da da--

Flames spewed out, but it was too late.

The black ball has vanished without a trace.

After reporting to their superiors, they found nothing, so they could only speed up their retreat and take Misty with them as well.

Underground.

A black ball was devouring the soil like an earthworm, but unlike the others, it had a large appetite, wasn't picky about food, and had a very good appetite.

It eats everything, soil and other substances, it has incredibly strong teeth.

Gradually, its size and shape changed.

graduate School.

The army was finally ready to withdraw and began its upward movement.

But that's it.

Boom! !

The earth began to tremble, the violent shaking as if the heavens and earth had turned into dice, being shaken wildly in a cup, swaying back and forth.

It's just like……

Something is hatching.

However, this shell is just this piece of land.

"Get out! Get out!"

Most of humanity's weapons are developed to target its own kind and to harvest life more quickly. When faced with natural disasters like these, the effectiveness of technological means is greatly reduced and often becomes very ineffective.

Like now.

When that life hatches.

Half of the underground research institute has been destroyed, and only a portion of the military personnel and others who were near the surface exit survived.

but.

When they painstakingly dug away the soil and rocks piled up due to the earthquake, they were met with an even more despairing scene.

In the midst of a vast fog.

A strong wind howled, and sharp, mournful cries filled the air.

The smells of blood, burnt food, and fish wafted through the mist. Our instinctive senses picked up on the hidden meanings within these odors, sending the brain a sharp warning.

Danger!Danger!Danger!

This is an extremely dangerous environment with absolutely no chance of survival!
Goosebumps erupted uncontrollably, my breathing became rapid involuntarily, and my eyes began to dart around, observing everything.

Some of the monsters we had encountered underground reappeared. They preyed on each other, blood splattering everywhere, their actions cruel and brutal. Fortunately, the exit was well hidden and went undetected.

But soon.

As if startled by something, the monsters scattered and fled, ignoring them even when they passed by their exit and saw them, only caring about running for their lives.

And there's this slight tremor coming from under my feet...

The officer swallowed hard.

Trembling, he looked in the opposite direction.

In the mist, six giant, grayish-white feet tread the ground, each foot being tens of meters in size. Looking up...

It was a colossal creature resembling a giraffe, with thick, pale, multi-jointed bony legs, a torso like the skeleton of some kind of animal, numerous ribs, knife-like feet on its abdomen, and tentacles on its back.

According to the officer's visual estimation, this behemoth is probably 70 to 80 meters tall, and its weight is unimaginable.

Can artillery handle such a large creature?

The officer was deeply suspicious.

In any case, we definitely can't handle them, so it's best to hide now.

But at this moment.

The gale shifted.

That enormous creature was actually walking this way!

"Quick, run!"

Staying in the cave will only hasten your death. Don't forget how the research institute collapsed. Spreading out and running on the ground is the best solution at this point.

Hundreds of people scattered and fled across the ground.

But the behemoth seemed to have a target, focusing on only one direction.

How could humans possibly outrun such a behemoth? In just a few steps, the behemoth blocked their path.

Several tentacles flew down, blasting several soldiers into a bloody pulp.

Then, she gently rolled up Misty and placed her on her shoulder before moving again.

This time, however, its goal became indiscriminate slaughter, indiscriminate killing, regardless of anything, the more lives the better, stomping to death, attacking with tentacles, touching with blades and feet...

Its size, no matter what it does, is a catastrophic disaster for lower-level creatures!

In particular, it is also consuming matter and growing slowly.

Its size is still increasing!
Soon, having killed most of the nearby creatures, it turned its gaze to the town, where it sensed the presence of many lives, especially one that was very powerful, and it really wanted to crush it.

A savage glint flashed in the eyes of the behemoth—no, the artificial version of Behemoth—as it headed towards the town.

……

With such a commotion as Behemoth, it was impossible for John Wick and his men not to have noticed.

In fact.

From the moment the ground began to shake, they looked in that direction, but didn't see anything at first. It wasn't until two minutes later that they watched in disbelief as a huge creature swelled up as if it had absorbed water.

"My God!"

"Is God really going to destroy the world? Such a gigantic beast has appeared..."

"It's over, the whole world is over."

"..."

John Wick pursed his lips and looked at Ono. "This is the Behemoth you were talking about?"

"Maybe, perhaps, probably, should, right?" Even Ono couldn't be sure anymore.

Based on experimental analysis, it's impossible for it to be that big.

The original size was supposed to be around fifty meters at most, so what happened?
Moreover, those tentacles, and this heavy sense of oppression, seemed to be much stronger than I had predicted.
John Wick took a deep breath.

"withdraw!"

"Retreat immediately!!"

Then, John Wick looked behind him, "Who's willing to stay behind with me to cover our retreat?"

clap clap clap!
Footsteps sounded more than a dozen times in a row.

Sixteen people stepped forward.

"Good, you are all true warriors. If you manage to get out of here alive, I will definitely take you to the Church of Apocalypse for formal admission."

One of the young men, who looked to be in his early twenties, stopped him, "Boss, don't say that. From what I've learned in my years of surfing, people who say things like that usually end up losing everything."

"Hahaha."

A group of people burst into good-natured laughter.

"Alright, no time to dawdle. The behemoth will be here soon. Come on, follow me to the gas station to prepare for the detonation. As for you, get out of here immediately! Don't look back!"

John Wick acted swiftly and decisively, immediately issuing orders and commencing the operation.

We arrived at the gas station.

at this time.

The behemoth is approaching.

John Wick looked at Ono, who was being carried on someone's back, and said, "Do you blame me for pulling you over here?"

Ono smiled. "It's good that he's dead now."

Dying on the path of atonement is also a good choice.

Hopefully, this choice wasn't wrong.

Ono thought to himself, having made several wrong decisions in a row.

Upon hearing this, John Wick smiled.

But he did not reply.

Instead, he took out a talisman from his pocket. It had a picture engraved on it, which looked very simple, but it had a mysterious charm.

The moment you see it, a figure appears in your mind, every detail vivid.

This is the divine favor he received.

With such a sacred object, he firmly believed that the mission he had been given would never fail!

Behemoth, come forth!
John Wick's eyes were resolute.

People around also poured out oil drums, creating an artificial "trigger".

"Boss, it's done."

A dozen or so people were all looking at John Wick.

John Wick took a deep breath, pulled out his lighter, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag.

Turn around.

He threw it backwards.

"go!"

Call ~
The flames burned fiercely, spreading and engulfing the area.

After entering the gas station.

Accompanied by intense light and heat, a muffled explosion suddenly rang out.
