Chapter 67 Next is my chapter.
"Luo Lan, please note that at this size, energy consumption is extremely high. Estimated remaining time for action: 142 seconds."
Victor's neutral voice rang out directly in his mind, precisely calculating the maximum activity time of this skeleton Gundam.
"That's enough. Now it's my turn!"
Luo Lan, piloting a Gundam, spoke with absolute confidence.
Just as Luo Lan finished familiarizing himself with the newly assembled Gundam body, the smaller version of the Evil Slime split off first passed through the remnant fire.
It was only half the size of the main body of the Evil Slime, but much faster. Its dark red tentacles lashed at the ground, leaving a wet trail several meters long in its slime.
The tentacles lashed out at the skeletal Gundam's calves, attempting to wrap around its ankles and drag it down.
Luo Lan manipulated the Gundam and stomped his foot, which was covered in ghostly blue flames, crushing the slime tentacles into a pulp. Then he twisted his waist, bent down, and looked down at the split entity under his feet.
The evil thought slime split, which Ro Lan once had to look up to, now only reaches the waist of a Gundam.
The massive skeletal arm suddenly rose, blinding, eerie blue flames erupting from its joints. Luo Lan raised his bone-bladed greatsword, over ten meters long.
"Victor, you control the output of the holy light on the bone blade! I will still control the body."
Roland handed over control of the Gundam weapon to Victor.
"Received. Control of part of the undead construct has been taken over. Energy consumption has increased. Estimated remaining operation time: 97 seconds."
Victor's more precise control over the Gundam will result in higher energy consumption. But it's all worth it.
The pale holy light spread out from the spine of the blade, converging along the bone's texture towards the edge, but unlike the enchantments Roland usually used, it did not form a uniform light film—Victor compressed the energy using his specialty, Precision Maneuver.
The holy light was squeezed into the thinnest edge of the blade, compressed to its maximum thickness visible to the naked eye, and then began to vibrate.
High-frequency vibration.
Extremely high frequency vibration.
"Buzz—"
The blade emitted a sharp hum in the air, and the membrane of holy light vibrated back and forth at a frequency of thousands of times per second. The blood rain around the blade was shattered into blood mist and evaporated before it even fell onto the surface of the bone blade.
Giant Holy Light High-Frequency Bone Blade!
"Sizzle—"
The enormous skeletal arms swung down with tremendous force, the bone blades carrying enough power to cleave boulders, slashing down with a devastating blow. The sound of the blade cutting down was like a red-hot iron sheet striking ice.
The knife fell. Smoothly and effortlessly.
The high-frequency vibrating film of holy light on the blade encountered no resistance when it touched the surface of the split body.
The supple, evil thought slime split open smoothly to both sides, the cut as clean as a hot knife through cold oil.
"Sizzle!"
The split body was cut in two, the two halves of the body bounced to the sides, dark red mucus gushed out from the cut, and the remaining pale holy light burned at the cut in the middle.
Two dark red lumps of flesh wriggled on the ground, attempting to activate the [Split lv.4] skill, thus transforming the two severely injured halves of the body into two completely new individuals.
But the holy light scorched every inch of the slime's cut, and the dark red, translucent flesh hissed as it wriggled, turning charred black.
The two slimes' new body outlines swelled up and then deflated repeatedly.
The pale holy light nipped the [split] in the bud.
Just then, the main body of the evil slime, which was over twenty meters in diameter, also passed through the last wisp of flame in the wall of fire and directly crushed the front of the Bone Gundam.
However, this enormous monster did not immediately attack the skeleton Gundam.
Its massive body suddenly twisted to the side, like a huge pool of dark red mudslide, and crawled directly toward the two smaller fragments of the body that were sizzling and burning under the holy light.
The main body of the evil slime, its belly bubbling with blood, burst open, and dozens of tentacles extended from it. Each tentacle sucked small pieces of the slime's fragmented remains into its body.
[Aggregation lv.3].
The main body of the evil slime wanted to wrap the small slime that Luo Lan had cut open back into itself, attempting to forcibly reclaim the massive biomass that had been separated from it.
The idea is straightforward and in line with the instincts of monsters.
But how could Luo Lan just stand there and watch it use its skill to heal itself?
"Pfft!"
Another clean, sharp tearing sound rang out. Before the remains of two smaller slimes could be dragged into the main body's belly, the giant bone blade, suspended high above, once again brought down heavily with wind pressure.
With a horizontal slash of the bone blade, a large chunk of dark red tissue was peeled off the mountain of flesh, flying out with its charred edges, crashing into the stone wall and shattering into a bloody pulp.
Under Luo Lan's bone blade cutting, every time the evil slime opened a crack, a large chunk of flesh would be ripped away when it activated [Aggregation], resulting in a consumption far exceeding the benefit.
The evil slime finally realized what was happening and voluntarily gave up on continuing its [aggregation].
The evil slime turned its gun around, the twenty-meter-tall dark red mountain of flesh facing off against the twenty-seven-meter-tall skeletal giant.
The tentacles on the surface of the evil slime aggregate stacked into dense, whip-like protrusions, and then shot out together to blast towards the sternum of the white bone Gundam.
Luo Lan took a step back, switching her bone blade to a one-handed grip. With one hand, she swung away the tentacles.
However, Gundam's sternum was still struck by several tentacles, and several pieces of bone broke off. But the bone blade held by Luo Lan in his other hand also fell again.
Trading injury for injury.
With a single slash, the bone blade severed the group of tentacles. As the bone blade collided with the tentacles in mid-air, the high-frequency vibrations of the holy light membrane instantly shattered the dark red flesh into a blood mist.
The tentacles wrapped around his right knee, causing the bones to crack under the strain. Luo Lan kicked out, dislodging the tentacle along with a piece of his kneecap. His broadsword swung, slicing away another large section from top to bottom.
With each heavy blade strike, large chunks of charred, foul-smelling flesh peeled off the slime's body.
Even with the Evil Slime's skill [Self-Healing Lv.2] operating at full speed, its repair speed couldn't keep up with the speed at which it was being shredded by the Gundam Bone Blade's large-area, high-frequency holy light cutting.
Slash after slash. The slime mountain of flesh was chopped smaller and smaller.
The blade, enveloped in holy light, dragged back and forth in the center of the flesh, each strike of the bone blade slicing away a layer like peeling skin.
Scattered pieces of flesh piled up at the Gundam's feet. The evil slime aggregate, after being flattened, shrank in size, from twenty meters to fifteen meters, then to ten meters...
When this constantly writhing mountain of flesh was shaved down to just over six meters high, its original bloated shape was almost unrecognizable.
The raised bone blade, propelled by gravity and inertia, slashed down mercilessly once more.
"Snap!"
With a crisp snap, the bone blade struck a hard lump deep within the mountain of flesh—the core of the Rift that had been swallowed by the evil slime!
The high-frequency holy light cleaved the small object into several pieces from the inside. Fragments splashed out from the flesh mountain, carrying residual magical luster, and bounced on the ground with a tinkling sound.
The moment the core of the Rift shattered, the frantically struggling evil slime suddenly lost all its power.
Its remaining six-meter-tall remains quickly collapsed after losing power support.
Large chunks of semi-liquid meat collapsed instantly, along with the scattered slime fragments around the passage, all falling silent.
The dark red, evil slime flesh shredded at a visible speed, sticking to the ground in clumps.
The corrupt blood rain that had been pouring down over the third level of the Rift Ruins also stopped abruptly as the core of the Rift Ruins collapsed and the thick crimson clouds began to dissipate rapidly.
The entire rift suddenly became much quieter.
The soft patter of blood falling on the stone bricks was gone, as was the sticky, wet sound of the mountain of flesh writhing.
