Great, we're doomed now!

Gatanothor is the embodiment of darkness, and it also possesses the talent of absorbing energy; the surrounding darkness is its inexhaustible source of power.

Thus, the battle descended into its worst state: a seemingly endless, purely exhausting struggle!

The series of unexpected events that seemed to guarantee victory has created an inexplicable unease in the ancient evil god's heart.

It realized that if it continued to entangle itself, even though it was far larger than the dark giant, the consequences would be extremely unpredictable—who knows if another accident might happen.

...This dark realm, which it had cultivated for countless years, now seemed so unreliable.

"hold head high--!!!"

With a screech filled with extreme resentment and venom, Gatanothor made his decision.

It abruptly contracted all its outward energy, and the vast dark domain collapsed inward like a receding tide, engulfing its core. At the same time, it forcefully "spit out" the still frantically attacking [Dark Radiance Tyrant], as if ruminating.

Then, the evil god sank into the deepest part of the earth's crust, into absolute darkness where no light could reach...

"hold head high!!!!"

It abandoned this battlefield and temporarily discarded Ye Shou, this tempting yet extremely dangerous "container".

It needs time and silence to heal itself and dispel this unease that shouldn't exist...

P.S.: I originally wanted to update more these past few days, but since there's a discount, those of you who are following the story won't get much of a discount, so I'll just write more.

But it really feels like it's about to burn out... That's all for today. I'll think about whether to start a bounty later.

I'm offering a bounty, I'll expose you guys!

The chefs' chapters are mostly long, so we'll calculate it at 4,000 per chapter.

200 yuan per chapter for monthly tickets;

200 blades per chapter;

A chapter can be rewarded with 20000 coins;

The process will take approximately three days, ending at 9:00 AM on Thursday.

This seems to be the first time I've offered a bounty for this book, because I feel like I'm doing pretty well with my usual update schedule, but thinking about it, I do seem to have been a bit lax.

Below is the current data:

Chapter 246: Monsters Feel No Pain (4K)

In the long, winding tunnel, streaks of light are moving through it.

The surrounding rock walls were corroded and riddled with holes. When you let your senses wander, you can smell the lingering evil aura everywhere, as strong as the smell of blood in a slaughterhouse—but that was surprising.

Even if Gatanothor retreats, the underground world will still be shrouded in darkness. It would normally take more than ten thousand years for the Earth's core energy to slowly wear it down during intense geological activity before it can finally return to normal.

But now it has disappeared naturally, measured in seconds!

The giants, seeing the darkness receding from the mouth of the abyss, were prepared for a trap and a bloody battle, and bravely came to rescue Ye Shou... But things didn't go as planned, leaving them somewhat bewildered.

They would actually feel a little safer if the tunnels were teeming with monster armies or Gatanothor's tentacles...

Among the many streaks of light, a rather strange figure stood out. It was not a humanoid creature, but a burly monster resembling a komainu (guardian dog). However, the timer on its chest revealed its identity—a companion of the giants.

Gedi is a monster that uses the power of light. He had been fighting against the Golza Legion, but was separated from everyone in the chaos of battle. However, he was lucky enough to survive and eventually found his master again.

Despite its somewhat silly and cute appearance, it is actually stronger than most giants in terms of brute force; even two Golzas couldn't subdue it.

"Everyone be careful, there are signs of a battle here—what is that?"

A lone figure appeared ahead of them in the tunnel, its back to them. The other figures revealed themselves and hovered in the air, cautiously observing the other.

"...A dark giant?"

"This aura... it's like an evil god, but not entirely the same..."

"No, that's it!"

As if sensing something, Dalam exclaimed, "It's Ye Shou! Haha, that kid's alright!"

The giant relaxed and flew over casually, patting Ye Shou on the shoulder: "Hey kid, why have you transformed again? Your skin looks pretty messy."

"..."

The crimson giant sensed something, first glancing at the large hand on its shoulder, then turning to face Darram.

The champion, Gangli, stared into those bloodshot eyes filled with suppressed rage, and froze on the spot: "You—"

Snapped!

Ye Shou shrugged, shaking Dalam away, and then grabbed his neck with his right hand!

"Well!"

Darram was shocked and instinctively struggled to break free, only to find that Ye Shou was incredibly strong. Even with both hands, he couldn't pry open Ye Shou's hands!

"Hey!"

Darram said with difficulty, "What's wrong with you... um, have you forgotten... I even benefited from your kindness!"

"..."

The dark giant lowered his head thoughtfully, slightly loosening his grip. Darram seized the opportunity to roar and break free quickly. The giants behind him, seeing the sudden change, came to his aid.

"what happened?"

"Cough cough! I don't understand, but one thing is certain... this guy is not normal right now!"

Even if Darram didn't say it, everyone could tell. The question is, just how abnormal is it...?

"Ye Shou, do you still remember me?"

As the first giant to encounter Ye Shou, Tiga stepped forward and said softly, "What exactly happened to you?"

"……roll."

The dark giant clenched his fist, which trembled slightly: "Stay... away from me."

"Ye Shou—"

boom!

With a punch to Tiga's chest, the silver-white giant was sent flying backward and crashed into the corroded rock wall.

"Everyone, leave! I... I don't know what I'll do!"

The dark giant's entire body trembled unnaturally, as if a person was struggling to control themselves in extreme anger, and his voice was extremely hoarse, as if he had not drunk water for days and was filled with a thirst for something.

"Stay calm, there must be a way to solve this, just first—"

"I told you to get out!"

A giant entered within five steps of Ye Shou, which seemed to trigger something. A crimson aura burst from Ye Shou's body, and he immediately lunged forward and kicked the giant hard in the shoulder, knocking him to the ground.

"what!!!"

"Oh no, he can't control himself."

Camilla unleashed her long whip, binding Ye Shou tightly. As a dark giant, her recovery speed was faster than others, and the power of her whip was considerable. It wrapped around Ye Shou five or six times, making it impossible for him to break free.

—It's possible that he surrendered voluntarily.

It was clear that he was trying his best to suppress something; a fierce struggle was taking place inside his body, but it was obvious that he could not win on his own.

The Ultras looked at each other, and Lucifer, the silver-black giant who resembled Ultraman Tiga, spoke first as their representative:

"Brothers, this is urgent! Let's knock Ye Shou unconscious!"

"it is good!"

"just!"

Two giants struck first, pinning him down on both shoulders, while another chopped down with a hand chop—

Snapped!

Sparks flew, but Ye Shou merely tilted his head; far from fainting, his eyes grew even more ferocious.

"Oh, oh, oh!"

The dark giant kicked the controller away with both feet, and then his body surged with red light. With a loud shout, he broke the long whip in two!

"Huh?" Camilla was clearly stunned for a moment, and then she saw Ye Shou lift a person up with both hands and throw him at the crowd like a stone.

"what!"

Lucifer used his energy to strengthen his hands, deflecting the force and catching his companion Chan Siling. Then, with a nimble step, he used his arms to block Ye Shou's additional iron fist.

"Ok?"

As soon as they clashed, Lucifer sensed something amiss. The power was terrifying, but it felt like "dancing in shackles," leaving a sense of unfulfilled potential, as if it hadn't been fully unleashed.

If we are cautious and careful, we may be able to handle it!

"Ye Shou, this is not what you want to do. Wake up!"

"Uh... Ha!"

Ye Shou raised his hand to parry Lucifer, shook his head violently, and attacked again in the blink of an eye. The silver-black giant calmly responded.

Compared to the Land of Light in parallel worlds, which has evolved for tens of thousands of years, has perfect qualities in all aspects, and is supported by equipment, the ancient giants are generally in their first generation, that is, their original form, and rely almost entirely on their own accumulation.

Although they lack any usable equipment, they have been engaged in wars since their inception, making them extremely skilled and experienced, on par with their counterparts.

The most outstanding among them are naturally the four heroes, while Lucifer possesses comparable strength and is the leader of another giant squad. He is particularly skilled in hand chop and flying kick, making him a martial arts expert of a different type from Darram.

He knew that he was no match for Ye Shou in his weakened state, but fortunately, Ye Shou was in a state of confusion and his movements were full of flaws, giving him many opportunities to take advantage of him.

Snapped!Snapped!

With a turn, Lucifer seized the opportunity to strike Ye Shou in the waist from behind, making him shudder.

By the time Ye Shou turned around, Lucifer had already jumped out of the attack range, and Darram and Hitler took over.

And so, the surviving giants of light took turns attacking Ye Shou, trying to wear down his strength and reduce his violent aura so that he could calm down a little.

But things didn't go as planned. As the battle progressed, the giants were devastated to find that Ye Shou was becoming more and more courageous and showed no sign of stopping. Their side was already extremely weak, and even with their numerical advantage, they could not continue.
