Chapter 610: Chapter 65: Crazy City (5)_3
The skull-head sat inside the cockpit of the mechanical god, observing Aorus’s actions with the help of instruments. He was accustomed to keeping a few cards up his sleeve, understanding the opponent’s true capabilities before taking action. At this moment, the skull-head was pondering, pondering Aorus’s peculiar behavior.
The humanoid form summoned by Aorus seemed to be able to unleash his superpowers for him, so why didn’t he use teleportation to dodge the Dust Explosion’s attack?
This was illogical, the Supreme Crown was, in his knowledge, the most face-conscious person. If Aorus’s important documents fell into a mud pit, he would rather spend half an hour lecturing to persuade someone else to pick them up for him than stretch out his hand to soil his own clothes. That was his nature, his proud nature.
The skull-head was clear that while human character can grow, the innate nature within is hard to change. His choice to endure this attack must have a reason…
“Yun Yinglang, I’m pleased to see you’re here, too,” Aorus’s voice rang out, tinged with that deep-rooted arrogance, “You’ve saved me a lot of time.”
Aorus’s body gathered together again, and in the blink of an eye, he transformed back into that gracefully poised young man, even the blood on his clothing had vanished. Conversely, the giant’s head behind Aorus burst open with a blast!
The skull-head scrutinized the figure’s appearance carefully and realized that after being harmed, the shadow Aorus had summoned not only didn’t dissipate but instead became clearer… The giant’s form was gradually recovering, and at this moment, the shadow was no longer a mere shadow but became a detailed humanoid figure.
Gray skin, withered body, an ugly appearance like skin wrapped around bone; standing roughly over 10 meters tall, both eyes and ears pierced by iron needles, mouth sewn shut with silk threads, a flattened nose, no hair atop the head, only fine needles embedded… This human form was simply unpleasant for skull-head to even look at, and he absolutely couldn’t relate this thing to the handsome Aorus.
“Aren’t you going to attack!?” Dust Explosion screamed. “No!” skull-head roared lowly. He was contemplating the meaning and capabilities of this ugly humanoid form, realizing that he must not attack any further at this moment. Substitute Skill? Acting body? Something still wasn’t right, just a bit more… Try again!
“Shiyu Zhongyi, attack the giant!”
Traces like scars from knives emerged in the eyes of Shiyu Zhongyi as he unleashed a new Impermanence Skill.
“Fierce Battle Demon Eye.”
In an instant, everything in front of Shiyu Zhongyi was torn apart as if slashed by a huge blade, but that did not include Aorus and the giant. Both had already teleported by the giant’s side, shifting their position and appearing beside the giant god!
“You’re always so sharp, John Garcia,” Aorus said coldly, “Now you can feel proud, for you have forced me to make a declaration, forced me to reveal the ugly side within.”
Above Aorus’s head, the black-and-white Supreme Crown emerged. In Shiyu Zhongyi’s hand, a silver-white rapier materialized out of thin air, and with the light of justice, he once again lunged at the ugly giant. Yet the ugly giant and Aorus continuously dodged by teleporting, greatly increasing the distance and making it difficult for Zhongyi to inflict damage in a short time.
Amid this chaotic scene, only the Supreme Crown’s declaration resounded high and strong.
“Humanity is a flawed existence, and the world is an imperfect collection. To claim oneself as perfect is a symbol of arrogance and foolishness, only by acknowledging failure, recognizing shortcomings, and accepting one’s flawed nature can one possess the strength to move forward.”
“Yet, yet! The supreme beings should not possess flaws or emotions, the supreme beings should not lead to erroneous outcomes! Thus, to achieve great deeds, one must first cast aside the mortal flesh. Hence, I embrace emotions, I acknowledge ugliness…”
Aorus raised his hand and proclaimed, “Defeat and misfortune will transform into false idols of the gods, and I shall become the perfect being that does not exist in the Mortal World!”
“Disaster Avatar. Divine Communication. False God Idol [Oreteus]!”
The hideous idol bellowed loudly, leaping in frenzy, using its massive body to disrupt the Array laid down by Shiyu Zhongyi. While Aorus cut through space to restrict Shiyu Zhongyi’s movements with one hand, he circled the other hand in mid-air and issued a new command: “Swap!”
Aorus disappeared on the spot, and skull-head appeared on the ground! He propped himself up, seeing the giant god’s eyes light up in the distance, immediately understanding Aorus’s strategy, and finally grasping the true power of his ugly Divine Communication Skill.
Aorus’s target was not only the highest-risk Dragon Species, but he also intended to seize the newly assembled mechanical god! And the power of the false god idol was exceedingly vile, especially since it was now possessed by the mighty Supreme Crown…!
“Skull-head? Skull-head! Skull-head!” Dust Explosion, invisible, shook his head vigorously, “What’s happening, what’s happening, how do we fight that thing now?!”
There was no time for explanations; skull-head could only think of one way, a plan almost akin to staking his life.
“Release the limit, wide-area strike!” skull-head bellowed, “Now!!”
Dust Explosion instinctively followed suit.
Just as Aorus seated himself in the cockpit of the mechanical god, infinite layers of purple explosions erupted on the edge of the central area.
