My Divine Beasts Are Really Not Evil Gods

Chapter 73: Super-tier Skill

Not an exaggeration, it really did split open!

The Desolate Strength Ant's back tore open in an instant, and a pair of golden ribs squeezed out, spreading like wings on its back. There was no membrane, resembling a leaf skeleton after a child had removed all the flesh, leaving only the veins.

But here, they were more like the eerie skeletal wings of a corpse that had rotted away to bone, connected to a shining, golden-armored ant body.

It gave off a sense of decay and rebirth coexisting.

From a distance, it looked like a skeletal Demonic Beast that had walked out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood, devouring flesh and blood to regenerate.

Such a bizarre appearance made Lu Yu frown.

Could it be that all so-called Primordial Variant Species looked this grotesque?

Sun Jie, who was beside him, had heard of it before, but this was his first time seeing a real Desolate Strength Ant in a video. He asked doubtfully,

"This is the Desolate Strength Ant?"

Huang Tiantian, however, had already been trained and explained,"Our Appraiser was also shocked when he first saw it.

Its appearance is indeed a bit… peculiar. But on second thought, it makes sense.

After all, when the Desolate Strength Ant was first discovered, only its skeleton remained. That was the information released by the research institute.

No matter the creature, its body is bound to lose some parts during the long process of weathering. But while appearances can be deceiving, skills cannot!"

As her voice fell, three overlapping, illusory, dark-gold rings appeared between the wings of the Desolate Strength Ant in the video.

Each ring contained nine smaller rings, for a total of ten rings in each of the three overlapping layers, though the last one had only seven rings.

A total of twenty-seven rings reflected behind it, as if forming a mystical pattern.

A terrifying power erupted, and even through the video, one could feel a suffocating sense of pressure!

At that moment, the Earth Sand Crocodile's claw swipe descended!

Boom!

Accompanied by the reverberating sound of a terrifying sonic boom, dust and sand filled the sky. But as the strong winds dispersed, the videographer could be clearly heard gasping.

As the red dust settled, a scene appeared that shocked everyone.

The Desolate Strength Ant had blocked the Earth Sand Crocodile's full-force attack with just a single claw, yet it hadn't moved an inch, perfectly deflecting all the force.

Even though it was a Demonic Beast, the three of them could see the human-like shock and fear on its face, as if in disbelief.

However, before it could flee, it was met with a punch from the Desolate Strength Ant, which clenched its claw into a fist.

The punch carried the airflow, creating a fierce wind and a faint sonic boom.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

The instant of contact was enough to crush the Earth Sand Crocodile's claw.

Amidst its agonizing wails, it was pulverized into a meat paste, flesh and blood flying everywhere in a split second.

The immense force didn't stop there.

The punch slammed into the earth, shaking the ground and leaving a deep crater in the red sand.

Rumble!

Countless red grains of sand shot into the sky, mixing with the flesh and blood, turning into a rain of blood that dripped onto its golden carapace like medals of victory after a war.

The scene was brutal, yet it possessed a kind of extreme beauty of power!

"An Earth Sand Crocodile of the same rank was an Instant Kill in one blow. Is this the dominance of a Primordial Variant Species…" Sun Jie marveled.

No wonder it was being specially studied by the research institute. This unique body structure brought the 【Strength Ring】 skill to the peak of the Super-tier.

It was hard to imagine the terrifying power it would possess after stacking eighty Strength Rings.

If it hadn't already been claimed by the 【Collector】, and if it didn't clash with his Beast King System, he would have been green with envy.

Lu Yu, however, stared at the screen, lost in thought.

Even after seeing the Super-tier Skill, he still felt that there was something strange about this Desolate Strength Ant.

Unfortunately, since it wasn't a live feed, he couldn't use the Eye of Truth to get more information.

However, he could confirm that it was a real Desolate Strength Ant, and the video had been authenticated by the Dark Moon Chamber of Commerce, so it wasn't edited.

In the subsequent footage, the wing-like bones on the Desolate Strength Ant's back retracted. It picked up a lump of meat scraps and headed deeper into the desert.

The videographer hurried to follow, his breathing growing heavier as he repeatedly shouted "Desolate Strength Ant." Just as he was about to get closer, a gust of sandy wind swept by, and the Desolate Strength Ant suddenly vanished.

It disappeared on an empty gobi with no cover whatsoever!

No matter how they searched, they couldn't find a single trace. The fine sand stirred by the breeze gradually buried everything.

If not for the video evidence, one would have thought it was all a dream.

The footage ended abruptly there.

All the necessary information had been obtained.

The red sand should be the 【Bloody Gobi】 area within the Desolate Ant Mound.

It was originally a patch of yellow sand, but because it was very close to the largest Red Fire Ant Nest, it was frequently scorched by flames, turning it into a red gobi.

Connecting this to the Red Fire Ant riot, it was possible that the Desolate Strength Ant was involved.

This could be a breakthrough point.

This narrowed down the search area considerably, although the possibility that the Desolate Strength Ant was hiding in other areas couldn't be ruled out.

The video showed twenty-seven Strength Rings. Adding the recently hunted Earth Sand Crocodile and any others it might have added, he estimated it had around thirty Strength Rings, which was still within a manageable range.

The key was to absolutely not let the Desolate Strength Ant get close. A single punch would definitely turn him into a meat paste, leaving not even a corpse behind.

Now that most of the information was confirmed, Lu Yu prepared to set off first to seize the initiative.

So he stood up and left directly.

Although Sun Jie was a bit regretful, he still escorted him to the door and bid farewell with a cupped-fist salute.

The friendship between gentlemen is as mild as water.

Crossing the line would only be annoying.

"Phew, they're finally gone!"

Huang Tiantian watched the two figures depart and breathed a sigh of relief.

If the manager hadn't offered her extra money, she wouldn't have wanted to face these mysterious powerhouses.

"Another peaceful day over.

It's a shame that little brother didn't seem to come, so I missed out on a commission…"

Huang Tiantian couldn't help but sigh. Earning less was the same as losing money.

And here she was, planning to show him the VIP private room treatment as thanks for the commission.

"What's this?"

Just as she began to clean up the private room, she discovered that on the shopping form she had casually brought in earlier, her name had been written in the referrer column.

In other words, she had received an extra commission, from the mysterious powerhouse, the 【Collector】.

Because only he had made a purchase, and Sun Jie would obviously not do something so unnecessary.

Normally, this would be a happy occasion, but there wasn't a trace of joy on Huang Tiantian's face. Instead, an expression of terror appeared.

She wasn't wearing a name tag, so how could he know her name?

Could it be…

Had she been targeted by the Collector?

Not only did he like to collect Demonic Beasts, but he also liked to collect beautiful and sexy girls like her? He might have even used Divination Art to see through the River of Fate and peer into her information…

The thought that she might be made into a Collection Item and stuffed into that Yellow Robe made Huang Tiantian shudder. She lost all mood to work, hastily found her manager to ask for leave, and prepared to flee home to hide.

Before leaving, Huang Tiantian felt that it would be too much of a loss to just go. With the resolve of one facing death, she took the commission with her.

To die…

she had to die a rich person
