Mystery Detective of the Steam World

Chapter 220 Monster Battle, Breathtaking!

Li Wei really enjoys going to the cinema to watch monster movies.

After all, the giant monster battle scenes shown on the huge screen in the movie theater, accompanied by surround sound, are incredibly exhilarating.

But now it's even more enjoyable because he's right there on the scene!

"roar-------!"

The monster roared and charged forward, while the messenger of disaster rose again, opened its mouth and hissed, and swung its sharp blades at the monster with force!

"Thump thump—!"

The cold glint of the blade struck the monster's armor-like shell, but bounced off as if it were striking a heavy tire. The monster charged forward, its claws gripping the waving arm, while its gaping maw snapped down to bite the messenger of disaster's neck!
"hiss-----!!"

The messenger of disaster, its neck gripped by the monster, let out a shriek. Its serpentine body quickly coiled around the monster, tightening its grip. Simultaneously, it raised its remaining two pairs of arms, gripping curved blades high. A chilling aura erupted from them, gleaming even the dullest blades.

Then, the messenger of disaster reversed its blade and stabbed the monster's body with all its might!
"boom-----!"

The biting wind that rushed towards them seemed to freeze even their souls, causing the monster to stagger backward, its once jet-black body now covered in a layer of frost. It shook itself violently, trying to shake off the ice, while on the other side, the messenger of disaster, who had managed to escape the monster, was also injured. A huge gash had been torn in its neck, and its body was covered in blood.

"Wow, this is really interesting."

Li Wei sat on a rock in the distance, watching the battle ahead. He rubbed his hands together excitedly. It was a pity he didn't have any cola or popcorn with him, otherwise it would have been so much fun!

"Mr. Li Wei, what is that monster?"

At this moment, the three girls also came to Levi's side and watched the monster battle in the distance with him. At the same time, Olivia asked curiously.

"It's just a monster, what else could it be?"

You've seen this before?

I've seen him several times.

After all, several movies have been made, haven't they?
Where is it now?

Annie asked excitedly, while Levi glanced at her silently.

"I don't know, maybe it's staying in some corner of the ocean."

"So it's also a kind of sea monster?"

"Of course not... Sea monsters can only lord it over here, but this one can even come ashore to sunbathe... Alright, let's watch the show."

"Shouldn't we do something?"

Katie stomped her feet excitedly, looking as if she couldn't wait to rush up and beat up the disaster messenger with the monster.

Unfortunately, the size difference is too great; if she went up, she would probably just be trampled to death by both of them.

"What can we do? Watch the show, maybe cheer them on a bit, that's about it."

Li Wei helplessly spread his hands. This size of monster was far beyond their ability to handle. They weren't like King Solomon, the sorcerer, who could unleash fireballs, storms, or lightning. Right now, all they could do was cheer for the monsters on the screen like moviegoers.

"That monster won't lose, will it?"

Olivia's concerns, however, were more practical.

"probably not."

Li Wei was very confident in his memory.

However, he didn't know the strength of the disaster messenger.

However, judging from the attack just now, this disaster messenger should be no match for that big monkey.

"roar-------"

The monster took a few steps back, coldly staring at the Disaster Messenger, who gripped its weapon tightly, holding it to its chest. Clearly, from their previous exchange, it knew this monster was no pushover. Although it didn't know why such a thing had inexplicably appeared in its dream, it was obvious it was after it!

But it doesn't matter. In the end, it's just a wild beast, and it can't compare to me at all, who is blessed by the god of disaster!
"Roar! Ro ...

The monster roared at the messenger of disaster once again, and at the same time, a miraculous scene unfolded.

A bright blue light began to emanate from the dorsal fin on the monster's back, extending from its tail all the way to the top of its head. Then, the monster opened its mouth and took a deep breath.

"——————————!!"

A dazzling blue beam of light shot out from the monster's mouth and hurtled toward the messenger of disaster!

? !
If the messenger of disaster could speak right now, it would definitely say that you have no sense of martial ethics!
Unfortunately, the messenger of disaster had no time to accuse the monster of cheating. It could only turn its six scimitars into shields and hold them to its chest in an attempt to barely block the attack!
"boom-------!!"

The blue beam roared as it struck the scimitar held in front of the Disaster Messenger's chest. The messenger stretched out six arms, gripping the scimitar tightly, attempting to withstand the terrifying torrent of energy. However, the Disaster Messenger's scimitars did not last long; in just a few seconds, the six scimitars in its hands were completely engulfed by the monster's blue beam!
The beam of light that had swallowed the scimitar continued its momentum, heading straight for the messenger of disaster's chest!
"hiss-----!"

Seeing that things were going badly, the Disaster Messenger hurriedly tried to shrink back and dodge, but at that moment, a fireball suddenly fell from the sky and hit the Disaster Messenger on the head!
"!!!"

The messenger of disaster, who was suddenly attacked, froze for a second as he tried to dodge.

Even though it was only for a second, it was enough. "—————————!!!"

The surging beam of light mercilessly struck the messenger of disaster in the chest, who screamed and struggled before collapsing backward to the ground.

Although the attack did not kill the Disaster Messenger, it caused it unimaginable pain. It curled up in a ball, instinctively screaming on the ground, struggling to get up.

But just then, footsteps sounded.

"Thump...thump...thump...!"

The monster strode over to the messenger of disaster and stomped on him. The messenger screamed in pain, and its serpentine body leaped up again, coiling tightly around the monster's body. At the same time, it opened its mouth and lunged for the monster's neck!
However, before it could succeed, the monster grabbed the messenger of disaster by the head and forced it to open its mouth.

Then, blue light shone from the monster once again.

The monster stared coldly at the messenger of disaster, then took a deep breath.

"—————————!"

A surging, roaring beam of light shot from the monster's mouth, mercilessly blasting into the open jaws of the Disaster Messenger, extending downwards. Soon, the entire Disaster Messenger began to glow blue, and then—

"boom!!!!"

The messenger of disaster's enormous body exploded completely, turning into a bloody mess of fragments. The body that had been tightly wrapped around the monster lost its strength and fell to the ground like a severed rope.

The monster then grabbed the messenger's remaining head and tilted its head back to the sky.

"roar-------!!!!"

"Phew, done."

Hearing the monster's final roar, Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief, just like when he saw the final battle in a movie theater, and immediately relaxed.

He was initially a little worried, but now it seems that his own monster is indeed more powerful.

The messenger's body slowly crumbled and vanished, and the monster disappeared into the darkness once more. When Livy stood up, he saw King Solomon descend from the sky and stand before him once more.

"And that's the end of it all."

He looked at Li Wei and spoke.

"Did you create that monster just now?"

"more or less."

Livy shrugged and answered, while King Solomon gave a wry smile.

"I never expected there to be such a powerful monster. I'm afraid even a dragon wouldn't be a match for it."

"Well…………………"

No, bro, don't tell me dragons really exist in this world.

Li Wei initially didn't believe it, but seeing King Solomon flying in the air, with fireballs and lightning like an elemental mage, and the existence of dragons in his era, it didn't seem like such an unbelievable thing.

As long as there are no giant dragons in my era, that's fine.

Hmm... I don't think this kind of thing exists in my time, right?

It's best if there isn't one.

"Thank you for saving me, young man."

King Solomon had no idea what Li Wei was thinking at that moment. He looked at Li Wei and spoke.

"I have finally escaped this nightmare and learned the truth about it all, but unfortunately, I found out too late."

"This is my job."

Livy nodded to King Solomon.

"As a detective, solving cases is my duty, so there's no need to worry about it."

"Although you say so, as the king, I cannot remain silent."

King Solomon shook his head, then turned to look behind him. A large group of people had gathered there, including princes and princesses; clearly, with the lifting of King Solomon's curse, their souls had also been freed. Each person stood there, a calm smile on their face, quietly watching them.

King Solomon nodded to the crowd, then turned to look at Livy.

“In my tomb lie my remaining treasures, once stained with a curse, untouchable by anyone. But now, the curse has vanished, and those things left behind are all for you. This is the last and only thing I can do. Rather than leaving them in the tomb, it's better to give them to you so they can be put to better use. Well then… thank you, goodbye, detective.”

As the words fell, the world around them gradually disappeared.

Then, Li Wei opened his eyes.

At that moment, unsurprisingly, a system notification sounded in his ear.
