Monsters: Evolving from Titans to Ancient Gods

Although the parasitic spores deep in the fog die when they come into contact with water, this still cannot stop the fog from spreading.

It still tentacles woven from white particles tentatively reached out from the gaps in the forest, eventually tangling and twisting wildly, making no attempt to conceal its greedy purpose.

The dense fog did not simply spread, but flowed under some kind of will, crossing the azure patterns on the ground, bypassing boulders, climbing tree branches, and finally filling every visible depression.

Despite the swirling azure energy field emanating from Longbo's body, it couldn't dispel the nauseating fog; it could only barely stop the fog from clinging to Longbo's legs.

Longbo's gaze swept across the thick fog. Although the parasitic spores dissolved upon contact with water, a certain will contained within the fog still made him feel an indescribable chill.

The power of the charged particle cannon accumulated, and the electromagnetic rings converged and coalesced at his two horns, transforming into azure rays that swept across the thick fog stretching to the horizon.

The flames rose and expanded with a deafening roar like a meteorite impact, and the heat and thick smoke blotted out the sun. The forest, along with the fog, was reduced to scorched earth ravaged by flames and high temperatures.

Longbo stands deep within the scorching earth, the distorted winds and heat waves twisting the atmosphere, making the towering mountain-like silhouette appear like a phantom.

The raging heat evaporated the water gushing from the earth's core, extinguishing small patches of flame, while high-temperature steam and highly toxic fumes were everywhere.

Longbo picked up his weapon, raised his hand, and unleashed a hurricane to disperse the thick smoke in front of him. The mountain-like silhouettes cast shadows that blotted out the sun and covered the scorched earth.

His four eyes scanned the thick fog and spores spreading again at the horizon, and he quickly adjusted himself to a state of combat readiness.

The protoplasmic reactor was operating at full power, and the azure energy accumulated once more. Layer upon layer of electromagnetic rings converged, as Longbo's gaze locked onto the distant thick fog.

The rhythm of life emanates from the sticky fog, where countless parasitic spores gather in the swirling fog, rotating slowly and steadily with a rustling sound.

One spore after another faced Longbo, gazing at him with pupil-less eyes. They floated and spun, their tiny six segments outstretched in mid-air.

As they converged, an invisible wave spread, and a deep pulsation came from the depths of the fog. They quickly reassembled and formed into enormous organs.

As the thick fog spread to Longbo's feet once more, the parasitic spores deep at the horizon had piled up and merged, completely transforming into a nauseating silhouette over ninety meters tall that stood upright in the fog, casting shadows that extended toward Longbo.

The alien life form Magnia revealed its true form, exceeding the limits of human visual tolerance, to Longbo.

Its 97-meter-tall body was formed entirely from sticky, eyeball-shaped parasitic spores. Although each spore had no pupil, it was still covered with countless blood vessels and a kind of mucus flowed out, revealing a faint sense of death and despair, as if it had been dug out from a living creature.

Longbo recognized it as Magnia, a parasitic monster from Ultraman Tiga, which seemed to have become even stronger after absorbing amazing life energy.

It slowly walked towards Longbo, its arms, also formed from spores, extending four sharp claws. Its head had no sensory organs, only a plurality of scarlet tentacles wriggling wildly.

Faced with such a disgusting parasitic life form, even Longbo, who had seen a lot, couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. It wasn't fear, but rather an instinctive physiological aversion to nauseating things.

Faced with this existence, Longbo unleashed his fully charged particle cannon, which he had already prepared.

A deep blue ray pierced through the thick fog, its patterns swirling with lightning, illuminating the fog before instantly penetrating it and striking Magnia's repulsive body.

With a deafening roar, the powerful force of the charged particle cannon struck Magnia, causing her spore-formed body to suddenly burst open. Her massive form was swept away, leaving two deep trenches on the ground as she staggered backward.

Magnia's nearly 90,000-ton body was gradually pushed hundreds of meters away, the immense force continuously destroying its body, burning and electrocuting it, until it was pierced through.

Its body was pierced through a huge cavity, spores and slime splattered out, and charged particle cannons pierced through the dense fog and atmosphere, disappearing diagonally into the endless deep space.

This scene, however, made Longbo unable to be happy at all. He clearly saw the scattered spores stiffen in mid-air, and then feel the call to return to their bodies.

It was as if it were unharmed, still heading towards Longbo, without any roar, only moving forward in silence.

Seeing this, Longbo immediately put away his spear and replaced it with a long-handled warhammer. This thing was definitely ineffective against penetrating damage, and his charged particle cannon didn't have the same overpowered effect as Old Man Gar.

As Lombre's fingertips, encased in bone armor, gripped the warhammer's handle wrapped in animal hide, Magnia suddenly appeared before him.

Despite its seemingly clumsy appearance, Magnia is incredibly agile and fast, in no way inferior to a nimble humanoid creature.

Lumbert fiercely raised his warhammer, his own power swirling around it as he swung it with a thunderous roar. This thing was truly ugly to the extreme; even Anhuruk, whom Lumbert had once considered a stinking alien beggar, looked exceptionally pleasing to the eye compared to it.

Magni displayed an agility disproportionate to his size, swiftly raising his hand to block Longbo's warhammer. A vibrant blue energy field erupted, dispelling the surrounding mist.

When his first attack failed, Longbo retrieved his warhammer, accelerated his spin, and swung it out once more, leaving a trail of azure energy that obscured visibility.

Magnia also swung her arm to block, and the muffled sound spread through the thick fog that stretched for a great distance. The shockwave from the collision tore through the fog and pounded the earth.

Thick fog, imbued with the power of lightning, spewed from its mouth, heading straight for Longbo's head.

Longbo dodged to the side, causing it to fall behind him, and then kicked it, sending it flying hundreds of meters away.

After briefly escaping the monster, Longbo scanned his surroundings, searching for traces of the extraterrestrial meteorite in the nearby mountains, but the thick fog around him blocked his unfailing magnetic field vision.

Although Lombre clearly realized that in order to avoid being dragged into a quagmire of battle by Magnia, he had to destroy the meteorite as soon as possible, it was obviously not that simple.

He couldn't find any suspicious meteorites in the vicinity.

The disruptive power of this dense fog was outrageous, almost exactly like the one he had encountered in the high-altitude canyons of the inner Earth...

same.

He suddenly realized that the creatures that had just been parasitized included species from the inner Earth, and that he had also encountered dense fog in the inner Earth that could interfere with his senses.

In other words... the meteorite was in that canyon!

Longbo's thoughts almost stopped for a moment, but the warhammer in his hand, imbued with energy, fell without pause, smashing straight into the ground.

Azure energy seeped into the earth, scattering debris across the sky. Azure patterns were etched onto the surface, and then a powerful force was released to tear open a huge ravine, drawing out the underground river.

The surging water fell on Magnia, causing it to howl for the first time, its body shrinking and almost dissolving.

But the meteorite continued to supply it with enormous energy, causing it to freeze in pain, but it did not fall.

During this period, Longbo's magnetic field ability penetrated the earth, and he found a passage to the underground world on the surface. The authority granted to him by the earth itself also allowed him to find the plateau canyons he had once reached.

Magnia's wailing echoed through the thick fog, guiding the approaching behemoth.

A biting wind swept through, and azure icy breath tore through the thick fog, landing directly on Magnia and freezing her soaked body in place.

"?"

The sudden change puzzled Longbo. He turned to look at the source of the cold current and saw two enormous humanoid figures appearing and disappearing in the thick fog.

The Titan's hoarse growl, along with the appearance of the antlers, slowly reached Longbo's eyes.

The two Wendigos noticed the battle and, without hesitation, chose to come and help Alpha.

"..."

Longbo was completely stunned.

This was the first time he had ever seen a Titan so savvy.

What left him speechless was that Wendigo was already on his purge list, yet he suddenly pulled this stunt.

How is he supposed to make a move?
