Chapter 710: Crisp tasting texture

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

Meanwhile, at the same time, a car was speeding into the outskirts of the Metropolis of Death.

This car appeared to be enshrouded with darkness. Barely noticeable headlights could be seen panning out, yet the human gaze couldn't see through them. It was like one's line of sight repelled away by force. If an ordinary human gazed at it for too long, a nauseating sensation would erupt.

The car abruptly braked and executed an exceptional drift. Huge military tyres blazed through the sandy patches of this desert outskirt.

After a queer silence of seconds until the sandy dust had settled, a serene electronic voice issued out.

"Its right here. Zi really is decisive. If she had hacked through Fu Lyanna's 'Chains of Corrosion' through normal means, an acute corrosive pollution would've plagued her and trace her for ten minutes. I didn't expect Zi to sacrifice her pair of Silver Storyline grade weapons without hesitation, igniting their horcrux just to avoid ten minutes of tracking!"

Another flooding voice resounded.

"But of course, don't forget that she is Zi after all! Must we elaborate more on her valiance? Did you see how pathetically beaten down Sable was? If we aren't careful, our boat may even capsize in a small gorge. Nonetheless, does she really think avoiding the pollution of the 'Chains of Corrosion' can prevent us from locating her? How naive!"

That serene voice then added.

"Aldaris's betrayal has caused Zeus to feel wary. Thus, he even dispatched Aziz over."

"Aziz? That Aziz? The one hailed as America's public enemy, that Aziz?" The tone of the flooding voice changed.

"Indeed. Zeus's logic is this – considering the remarkable heights of Zi's long range magic abilities, there ought to be one who can help suppress her in that respect."

The serene voice then continued.

"Actually, Aziz's goal is also to guard against a second Aldaris appearing. As the individual with the deadliest killing potential in our party, he can easily wipe out all other possible Aldaris! Set off! I don't wish to be labelled as a suspect for accepting Zi's salary. Especially for someone that holds an unshakable level of influence to Zeus."

"You sure we should enter? This is the Metropolis of Death! If Zeus was here, venturing wouldn't be an issue. But if we were to enter now, I'm afraid…..we'll encounter tremendous treacheries!"

"Fu Lyanna will soon arrive. Guess what will be in her mind if she sees us idling here?"

"....let's depart from here first! Screw this, we'll talk after making preparations! That place is home to those existences you know!"

　　**************

A blistering fishy breath rushed in.

Like a horrifying nightmare engulfing all life.

It seemed like a grade five earthquake was created, with every stomp this fast and monstrous colossus took.

Under the enticement of food, its pupils enlarged while its breathing and heart rate became hurried and brief...…..

"50 metres, 40 metres…..10 metres..."

Though Zi had shut her eyes; though she was tightly biting her lips; though her complexion was ghastly pale…..her delicate frame still shivered involuntarily.

When devoid of all strength, Zi was ultimately shed the shell of a strong capable woman. Besides, she was only a lady in her late twenties!

When facing death, especially the prospect of being chewed like a crispy popcorn by such a fearsome and deadly colossus, it was extremely normal for her mental state of mind to collapse.

Even the most valiant woman, was still a woman.

However, in this instant, she felt as though something massive just swept past her in the sky above.

This thing offered an incredibly peculiar yet recognizable sensation to her.

In the next second, that colossus abruptly released a supremely furious roar. Its tone was seemingly altered, as though something was blocking its mouth.

Like a tiny deviation causing a thousand mile difference, that colossus instantly smashed through the ruins right beside Zi; carrying a frightening fishy odour along!

Boom! The besiding four storey building directly received the rampaging collision of the colossus. The external walls and decorations shook violently, before the wall started fissuring apart as sediments and rocks tumbled down. The swaying continued and finally a majestic collapse resounded, carrying a puff of dust cloud soaring to the sky.

The colossus shook off the rubble on its head for ten seconds, before wrestling to stand back up from the wreckage.

It swiped its short claws ferociously around, as its body trembled with matchless violence. The reason for this, was obviously its scaling fury!

As it turns out, during the process of stampeding in, a clump of incredibly vile sticky goo was catapulted into its face!

This was no ordinary goo. Indeed, it came from the villainous 'Peluba 1,2 Chlorine Ethane Shock Rifle'.

Evidently, it was absolutely impossible to glue down such monstrous strength. Nevertheless! It wouldn't channel such brute force against its own head right.

The person who fired similarly harboured a distinct objective – not to capture it, but merely to disrupt its stampeding pattern.

A sudden flicker of hope was ignited within Zi's heart. Originally awaiting death with shut eyes, she couldn't tell how this colossus would randomly change its target.

Yet the truth was that, the colossus did missed its mark and spared her.

Zi gritted her teeth as she attempted to support herself up. Sadly, the venom pulsating in her chest wound was still obstinately clinging on and causing her to slump weakly.

Yet at this moment, a figure descended from above; appearing like it leapt down from a relatively high altitude.

Due to the darkness of night, she couldn't make up the figure's features clearly. Still, she could fathom the figure was thriving with vigor and strength.

After landing with a thump, the figure executed a front roll before scanning around. Then, the figure marched towards Zi.

Her body tightened up. She'd rather die in the mouth of the giant beast, than suffer endless torture in the hands of the Metals Professor!

Instead, she noticed the figure marching over with a seemingly nonchalant demeanor. The figure then halted before her, before unfolding both hands with utmost sincerity and offered.

"Sup lady Zi, you look like you can use some help."

"This voice..." For some reason, when Zi heard this familiar voice, her entire body calmed down. She immediately felt a complex mix of pain, numb and annoyance in the pit of her belly. In this instant, it was as though something had clogged up her throat.

Fortunately, she belonged to the class of women adept at restraining their emotions. After a brief pause, she feebly replied.

"You are…? Seaman?"

Sheyan shrugged his shoulders in response.

"Now is clearly not the time for an afternoon gossip tea session, lady Zi. For the sake of not becoming dessert for a certain creature.....please, forgive my upcoming presumptuousness."

After concluding his statement, Sheyan immediate buried his body and charged forth. Like carrying a sackcloth bag, he directly lifted Zi and sped off with her on his shoulders!

Because, that damned monster behind them had already regained its senses, and was recklessly pursuing them after announcing with a ludicrous raging roar.

According to Sheyan's estimate, the strength of this colossus was minimally above tier-5. Furthermore, it was enhanced with bonus health points like those Elite Boss legendary creatures of the Avatar World!

If Zi was in perfect condition and there was no pursuing foes behind, Sheyan reckoned they could still make an attempt. As for now....the strategy could only be changed.

But at this moment...Shua! Shua! A searchlight beaming as bright as snow abruptly pervaded through the darkness, and shone resplendently onto the colossus!

A pair of immeasurably thick legs. Developed muscles that threatened to burst out from its epidermis. A towering height of nearly two storeys. A massive head and a crude and long gigantic tail!

It resembled a giant bulldozer wherever it passed. Such was its astonishing loftiness!

Indeed. A shockingly terrifying creature that stood atop the apex of the dinosaur food chain!

The Tyrannosaurs Rex!

The unlucky dinosaur was clearly dazzled by the searchlight. Originally stampeding in again, it suddenly made two rounds, before smashing into a dilapidated house by the side. Large amounts of dust adhered onto its gooey face, causing its vision to be additionally disrupted.

Concurrently, a delighted and slutty scream resounded from the source of the searchlight. A green skinned little lad was currently prancing around!

"Ohhh~ guys take a look what I've discovered!

While carrying Zi and laboriously sprinting away, Sheyan instantly felt stumped…...and yelled furiously.

"Heck! Jinkuang why are you here? Weren't you sleeping soundly in the room?"

Jinkuang completely ignored him. His body strangely blurred before directly teleporting by the side of the confused and disorientated Tyrannosaurus, before tightly wrapping his arms round…...one of the Tyrannosaurus' toe.

"Hey, I've caught it, but it's struggling with utmost ferocity! Let us slice its head off, we can eat the rest of the portions raw. Of course, if time permits, we can roast it into a sumptuous delicacy. How crispy the texture would taste, just like chicken drumlets. If we sell them off, it'll profit us some pennies."

"You freaking idiot!! Are you sleepwalking??!" Seeing Reef preparing to receive him, Sheyan urgently tossed Zi over to him. Then, he barrelled towards Jinkuang in spitting rage, who was still presently whimpering about cooking the Tyrannosaurus.

Upon hearing his master's furious bellow, Jinkuang seemed as though he finally awoken from his reverie and shook his head bewilderedly. Then, he immediately loosened his arms around the Tyrannosaurus' toe, and scratched his head.

"Oh woah what? Shouldn't I be sleeping atop my spotlessly white and cozy bedsheet? Could it be that the dinosaurs have aroused certain long lost memories? Oh! Revered Tyrannosaurus sir, please refrain from glaring at me with such eyes. You ought to upkeep your graceful demeanor, after all, I only calculated the pound value of your meat quality if sold in Yorkshire. Alright, alright, actually, I was helping you to examine if there's a paronychia infection...….ahhh!"

(TL: Paronychia is a nail disease, an infection around fingernails and toenails)
