Chapter 96: Chapter 96: Difficult victory (Thanks to the helmsman of the Mad Ore for the reward! Big brother is powerful and domineering-!)

After Lu Zhou and his companions entered the building, Du Gang transformed into a giant.
At 129 meters tall, he was now taller than the entire observatory.
“Spear of the Ancient God!”
Manifesting his weapon, he adjusted its length, reducing the original 200-meter spear to 100 meters.
Then, he moved to the spot where the spatial channel would soon appear and began to wait in silence.
Inside the building, the two superpowered beings from the Arctic stood in front of the glass, staring in astonishment at the giant outside.
“He’s so huge?”
They had indeed heard rumors in the Arctic Circle about a giant in Nanyuan, but they didn’t know the specifics and assumed he was at most ten or twenty meters tall.
But now…
The two finally understood how ants must feel when they look at humans. If it wasn’t for their years of training and strong willpower, they might be on their knees by now.
They had seen skyscrapers before.
In big cities, they had even seen buildings reach three or four hundred meters high.
However, the sentiments one has when looking at a motionless building versus a giant being who can move are entirely different.
Seeing a skyscraper, they aren’t afraid, they just admire human technology.
But gazing at Du Gang, they felt a wave of oppression.
“Whew- Thankfully, this guy is on our side!”
One of the superpowered beings let out a sigh of relief, took out a cigarette from his pocket with trembling hands and lit it.
The other one snagged a cigarette too, murmuring, “Damnit, why isn’t my superpower about getting huge…”
Not long after, the spatial channel began to reveal itself. Du Gang instantly geared up, gripping his long spear tightly.
Soon, the spatial channel stabilized. Following that, a gigantic skull appeared about seventy to eighty meters above the ground.
Identifying it as a skull was easy. The first things to emerge were the upper and lower jaws, filled with sharp, dagger-like teeth. At first glance, it looked like a crocodile with its mouth wide open.
“Roar!”
The moment the dinosaur showed its head, it let out a roar. Along with it came a terrible stench. It was clear that it took oral hygiene lightly. Wait for the dinosaur to come out fully before engaging in a fair fight?
No way!
Du Gang was no chivalrous knight. The moment the dinosaur’s mouth started to come through the spatial channel, he had already raised his spear, ready to bring it down.
He was waiting for the dinosaur’s head to entirely expose itself so he could execute a lethal strike.
“Now! ”
Seeing that the dinosaur’s head was completely emerged, the giant eyes glaring at him, Du Gang’s expression hardened as he plunged the spear down with all his might.
Like an arrow leaving a bow, the spear accelerated towards the dinosaur’s head.
The newly emerged dinosaur, seemingly startled, tried to retreat in reaction, but it was too late.
With a “swish,” the spear penetrated the dinosaur completely, killing it on the spot.
Du Gang didn’t immediately let go but instead took a step forward, grabbed the dinosaur’s head, and pulled it out.
The spatial channel offered no resistance, smoothly allowing him to drag out the carcass, revealing its full body.
Just as expected, it looked similar to the human fossil records and simulation images. This dinosaur had two tremendously thick hind legs while its forelimbs were shriveled, no larger than a chicken’s claws, hanging pathetically and looking rather comical.
He again adjusted the Spear of the Ancient God to the size of his arm and began performing an autopsy on the spot.
Though it was dubbed an autopsy, it was essentially a craniotomy. He needed to find out if the dinosaur’s body contained any crystals.
Soon, he found a fist-sized yellow crystal located slightly behind the dinosaur’s eye sockets. “Red, orange, yellow?”
“A rainbow?”
Du Gang was curious. “Does that mean there are four more grades of crystals?”
However, even though this crystal was yellow, it was the size of a fist, much larger than the yellow crystal from the Egg-laying Mother Beetle. [Detected Yellow Grade Crystal. Convert into Source Energy?] “How much Source Energy can it convert into?”
[Detected Yellow Grade Crystal. Convert into 999 Source Energy?]
999 Source Energy?
Du Gang didn’t convert it right away. Doing so would be a clear loss, equivalent to only four or five hundred Red Crystals. He believed that if he took this Yellow Crystal back, Wang Dezhen would definitely be willing to buy it at a high price. So, he put the Yellow Crystal away.
Afterwards, he guarded the entrance of the channel for a while longer. There were no more dinosaurs coming out of this spatial channel, not even Black Beetles.
“Could it be that these dinosaurs and beetles aren’t from the same place?”
It was probably correct. One laid eggs, and the other was egg-born; it was understandable they weren’t part of the same brood.
He speculated that the appearance of dinosaurs was related to his advancement to the Third Rank. He just didn’t know if those beetles would still come out of the spatial channel.
Glancing back, there was still no movement from the observatory, and there was no telling when Lu Zhou would come out.
Finding nothing better to do, he returned to his human form and practiced the boxing moves Wang Hu had taught him.
At Meimu Mountain…
Nearly a hundred of the eight hundred soldiers from Divine Mystery Camp had fallen, while the hundred-meter tall dinosaur was riddled with wounds, barely breathing more than it was gasping. At this point, it could only lie limp on the ground, retaliating with body contortions.
Its rear legs had been shattered by the crowd, rendering it unable to support its body.
“Ranged attackers, widen the wounds!”
Under Wang Dezhen’s commands, the ranged superpowered fighters unleashed their capabilities, attacking relentlessly from a safe distance.
“Roar!”
The dinosaur lying on the ground roared continuously in anger.
At this point, it was nothing more than a mere shadow of its former glory. It was enveloped in a strong aura of death.
A few minutes later, under the joint attack of the entire team, the dinosaur finally gave in, letting out a weak roar before it collapsed.
“It’s dead-!”
“The dinosaur is dead!”
“We’ve won!”
Everyone was overwhelmed with joy and exhilaration, cheering loudly.
More than a hundred of their comrades had laid down their lives in order to defeat the dinosaur.
Over two hundred shield soldiers, including King Xuanwu himself, had perished in battle.
Thanks to them for holding the frontline, the others had a chance to strike. Otherwise, they would have been wiped out by now.
At this moment, not just the soldiers, but even Wang Dezhen, was weeping.
The Divine Mystery Camp had eight hundred members, all of which he had handpicked. But now, over a hundred of them had fallen.
This had been a hard-won battle!
But they had won!
“Everyone, clear the battlefield… bring our comrades…. let us triumphantly return home!”
