"Gone mad?"
Xiao Tian dodged the gorilla’s attack once more. Seeing the state of this beast, he couldn’t help but show a slight smile.
This was exactly what he wanted.
Gorillas, scientifically speaking, are considered close relatives to humans, with intelligence second only to humans among mammals.
The one in front of him, after biological modification, appeared to be much more intelligent than the average gorilla; at least, when Sun Tian issued commands to it, the beast could understand.
Moreover, the critical point was, apart from his speed, Xiao Tian was inferior to this beast in both strength and defense. The opponent could withstand bullets with its bare body!
Facing such a contestant—intelligent, tremendously strong, and with abnormal defenses—it was indeed a tough nut for Xiao Tian to crack.
So, in this situation, a direct confrontation would definitely not work.
Xiao Tian’s strategy was simple: no matter how intelligent this gorilla was, it would never be human; it was still a beast.
Being a beast meant that instincts occupied most of its consciousness.
Therefore, all he needed to do was thoroughly enrage it, and it would be much easier to deal with.
An opponent who loses their mind might be more destructive, but they are undoubtedly much easier to handle!
Sure enough, just as Xiao Tian anticipated, once the gorilla was thoroughly enraged, there was no method to its madness as it wildly swung its club.
As can be imagined, if this creature couldn’t manage Xiao Tian with reason, how could it possibly hit him now with such chaos?
Compared to before, the threat level of this beast dropped noticeably.
After a while longer, the gorilla seemed to run out of energy; such intense movements consumed it significantly.
"Oh? Out of strength, now it’s my turn." Xiao Tian looked at the gorilla, standing breathlessly on the spot, with a half-smile on his face.
"Bang!"
First strike, the steel rod in Xiao Tian’s hand fiercely smashed onto the beast’s head.
The gorilla’s movements stalled, its aura disrupted, its defense notably weakened.
"Bang!"
The second strike, Xiao Tian hit the gorilla’s right hand, flinging the steel rod it was holding out of its grasp.
"Roar!"
The now weaponless gorilla suddenly felt a sense of crisis, sensing impending disaster.
"Weren’t you smashing things so joyously just now? Mind if I try?"
Xiao Tian struck down with a forceful swing, and with a "thud," the gorilla staggered, clearly dazed.
"Wow, Auntie, look, Uncle is amazing!" Le Yaoyao, hiding on the side, was so excited she almost jumped up, clapping with joy, her eyes filled with admiration.
"Yes, I see it." Lin Bingxuan remained composed, yet her gaze towards Xiao Tian was filled with affection. This was how a man should shine.
With Xiao Tian’s relentless assaults, the gorilla had long lost its previous momentum. Though it wished to fight back, dodged again by Xiao Tian, it was greeted by another round of a relentless, storm-like beating!
Amidst this straightforward and brutal one-sided beating, Sun Tian, crouching by the wall, was dumbfounded. Only now did he realize what kind of inhuman monster he had provoked; even a biochemically modified gorilla could only scurry under Xiao Tian’s blows—it was simply beyond human!
Soon enough, the gorilla was drenched in blood from head to toe, appearing menacingly gruesome.
By this time, it had no intent to resist, only wishing to escape this man who seemed like the devil.
But having been oppressed by this beast for so long, how could Xiao Tian possibly let it go?
As the gorilla turned to flee, Xiao Tian took a few sprinting steps, leaping off a nearby iron box, reaching almost to the ceiling.
Xiao Tian grasped the steel rod tightly with both hands, smashing down fiercely, aiming right at the gorilla’s head!
More accurately, Xiao Tian wasn’t smashing, but using the sharpest end of the rod to pierce the gorilla’s head!
Like spearing it with a flagpole!
The gorilla, feeling the wind above its head, looked up bewildered, just in time to see Xiao Tian descending upon it—a sight that would be its last.
"Splat!"
The steel rod in Xiao Tian’s hand plunged into the beast’s mouth, extending downwards, eventually piercing out through the gorilla’s anus, and with unstopping momentum, embedded into the hardened cement floor!
Impaling the gorilla to the ground from head to toe!
Xiao Tian tapped the gorilla’s head with his foot, then lightly landed on the ground.
Everyone in the underground base was dumbfounded. Whether it was Sun Tian, Le Yaoyao, Lin Bingxuan, or the kidnapped girls, they were all stupefied.
Though they knew the gorilla might die by Xiao Tian’s hand, they never imagined it would die in such a manner.
Impaled from head to foot, nailed to the ground—one of the cruelest ancient punishments!
Yet, the gorilla’s body was still twitching, clearly not completely dead. The scarlet blood pooled all around, its pungent scent causing many of the girls to retch.
Xiao Tian slowly approached Lin Bingxuan and Le Yaoyao, a gentle smile spreading across his face.
"It’s all over now, really."
Lin Bingxuan and Le Yaoyao, pale from Xiao Tian’s final move, managed to suppress the urge to vomit. Upon seeing his gentle smile, their expressions softened slightly.
"Uncle, why did you use such a disgusting way to kill it? Auntie and I were scared by you..." Le Yaoyao pouted, slightly annoyed.
"Uh..." Xiao Tian rubbed his nose. He wanted to kill it differently, but the beast’s hide was too thick. He originally aimed for its spine, but who knew it would suddenly look up...
"Yaoyao!" Lin Bingxuan chided softly, showing dissatisfaction.
Le Yaoyao immediately realized her mistake, her face flushing red, "I’m sorry, Uncle, I misspoke. You risked so much to save us, and I said those things..."
"Haha, it’s fine. Do you think your uncle is the type to hold grudges over such things?" Xiao Tian couldn’t help but laugh. How could he worry about such matters with a little girl?
"Let’s settle everything when we get back, shall we? Now it’s time to settle accounts with this guy, right, President Sun?"
