Monsters: Evolving from Titans to Ancient Gods.

"?!"

The four pupils of the Longbo Mask instantly contracted, and its body, moving faster than it could think, released the tens of thousands of tons of Kamazoz and turned to run wildly towards the outside of the rift.

As Kamazozz landed on the ground with a dull thud, the cracks at the point of impact collapsed as if receiving a signal.

The dying Titan was instantly swept away by the rubble and fell into the abyss, disappearing from Longbo's perception.

The ground continued to collapse, turning into an immeasurable torrent that poured into the abyss at a speed almost matching Longbo's pace.

Sensing that the ground beneath his feet was crumbling, Longbo leaped up, unleashing his full power, and in one stride covered nearly several hundred meters, landing on the dark earth.

In areas unaffected by the cracks, Longbo continued running until he had covered more than ten kilometers before stopping and turning back to where he had been standing.

The point of impact, where cracks had spread, had disappeared, replaced by an abyss several kilometers wide, so deep it was almost bottomless.

The sky was now shrouded in smoke and dust, making it impossible to see any trace of the grassland that had once existed.

Seeing this, Longbo became somewhat disheartened.

He felt he had really lost out this time, not only had he used up a significant portion of his energy, but he had also exhausted himself.

After all that effort, I didn't get a single attribute point. The odds are really bad. Long Bo shook his head and turned to walk towards the hill ahead.

However, at that moment, a loud roar came from the top of the mountain, attracting Longbo's attention.

Looking up, he saw half a bloody limb rolling down with some stones, leaving a long trail of blood. It landed right in front of Longbo, splattering him with blood.

"Well... it's not like we gained nothing at all."

After a moment of stunned silence, Longbo wiped the blood splattered on his visor, bent down, picked up Kamaz's wing, and gracefully disappeared into the mountains.

Chapter 16 Earthworm Dog

The inner Earth has many advantages, such as its incredible radiation energy, which allows the Titans to thrive.

For example, the environment is beautiful. Whether it is the mountains with various colors or the plains with various plants that are extremely beautiful, no one can find fault with them.

However, it also has a flaw that left Longbo speechless.

That is, there are an absurd number of super-species here who are oblivious to their own mortality. Some of the giant creatures, upon seeing Longbo, treat him like a plate of dessert and attack him like madmen.

After eliminating Kamazoz and traveling approximately 500 kilometers away, Lombard was attacked by a giant red snake with two tails.

Longbo vaguely remembered seeing this kind of strange beast on the internet before. It seemed to be called Feiyi or Yifei, but he couldn't quite remember the exact name.

The day after he killed the giant snake that was over 200 meters long, he encountered a carp with six legs while bathing in a lake. The carp was about 80 meters long.

On the seventeenth day, at the bottom of a canyon, he encountered mountain leeches, which were generally three to five meters long.

That time, Longbo hesitated, then turned around and ran nearly 300 kilometers without looking back.

Just because it seemed to be the migration route of some kind of giant beast, the leeches, which had been hiding on the back of the leaves of the hundred-meter-tall tree, all stirred up and stretched out their bodies toward Longbo as he passed by, like maggots living on the tree.

That scene made Longbo's sanity plummet; he felt terrified and completely lost it.

A month later, Longbo passed through a forest and sensed that there were life forms there that were no less powerful than those of the Titans. So he stood on a distant mountaintop to investigate out of curiosity.

At first, he thought that a Titan or a super-life form like King Kong was sleeping there.

But it wasn't until later, when he saw a crane with one leg and a wingspan of nearly a hundred meters land there, being wrapped up by tendril-like vines and pulled to the ground, that he realized the forest was alive.

Later, in a similar living forest, Longbo saw a group of centipedes covered in chitinous shells, resembling trains.

They appear to be symbiotic species of that living forest, luring prey into the forest and then surviving by gnawing on the remains of the prey.

At that time, some of them separated and desperately harassed Longbo, trying to lure him into the forest.

At that moment, Longbo completely understood that this inner world was simply a combination of the Classic of Mountains and Seas and Katachon.

The fact that the Little Broken Planet can give birth to so many outrageous things makes me feel that I wouldn't be surprised if one day I saw the Little Broken Planet like Katachon, teleporting away on its own when it encounters danger. It's just too outrageous.

It would be absurd for this little planet to not have something special to give birth to Titans and these other things...

...

"Ow..."

A wolf howl echoed through the forest behind Longbo, rousing him from his thoughts.

At the edge of the vast forest, the trees swayed, and enormous creatures, their shadows darting through the leaves, quietly peeked out from the forest, their menacing heads fixed on Longbo's back.

Longbo glanced at the lush forest behind him, knowing that the group of wartdogs that had been scavenging corpses behind him had caught up again.

Wartdogs are small to medium-sized super-species widely distributed in the inner Earth, standing 30 to 35 meters tall at the shoulder, with an ossified head and a pair of long canines on each of their upper and lower jaws.

Following behind Longbo were initially the elderly, weak, sick, and disabled who had been driven out of the tribe. Longbo saw many individuals with serious injuries, such as being bitten or having their legs broken.

Only one or two lame, old, weak, sick, or disabled animals followed behind Longbo, seemingly wanting to hunt him.

But after they saw Lombard rampage through the land, beating up every giant creature he encountered without discrimination, they abandoned the idea altogether.

So they changed their strategy and adopted a different way to survive: following Longbo at a distance and picking up the limbs and broken pieces of the giant beasts that Longbo had torn off to fill their bellies.

As a Titan, Luneburg is fundamentally different from these super-species of the inner world.

Although the super-species in the inner Earth can absorb radiation, they still rely on flesh and blood to survive and need to hunt.

But Titans like Lunapor only need radiation to survive and evolve, without needing to eat. Although Lunapor beat and killed a few creatures along the way, he never ate except for the wings of Kamazoz.

This benefited the old, weak, sick, and disabled who had been driven away by their tribe. They followed Longbo and lived a very comfortable life.

In recent days, the limbs and fragments that Longbo alone has torn off while fighting the giant beasts far exceed the prey hunted by a large pack of wartdogs.

As a result, more and more wartdogs followed behind Lombard, and many wartdogs that had basically fallen to the bottom of the food chain recovered and became visibly obese.

Moreover, a few days ago, Longbo vaguely saw several healthy wartted dogs mixed in with the pack behind him. They didn't seem to have been driven away; rather, they seemed to have left their pack and joined this group on their own.

During this process, the wartdog got closer and closer to Longbo, initially keeping a distance of hundreds of kilometers.

Later, in order to cook rice as soon as possible, they entered the 100-kilometer range, and now they even dare to enter Longbo's 10-kilometer range.

But Longbo didn't drive them away. Instead, he let them follow behind him, picking up the corpses. He wanted to see how long it would take for these things to turn into dogs.

Thinking back over a hundred years, when Longbo was playing Clash of Clans by the Yellow River, he actually kept dogs. He thought it would be quite nice to keep a group of such dogs in the Netherworld.

Longbo looked at the green crystal standing on the brown mountain, pondered for a moment, and then started walking in that direction.

He sensed that the mountain's magnetic field was strange, even in this bizarre and fantastical inner world, it seemed exceptionally different, belonging to a magnetic anomaly zone.

So he decided to go and take a look. As for beating up the giant beast, Longbo said that it could be put aside for a while.

Anyway, the probability of gaining attribute points by beating up giant beasts is not high. After entering this place, I only got one attribute point from the red giant snake.

After Longbo set off, the wartdogs, who had been frolicking and playing in the forest or exploring the mysteries of life, also started to move.

It followed slowly, its hooked, hoof-like claws moving in quick succession.

Soon, as Longbo approached the mountain, he felt the strangeness of the magnetic field more and more, but he also learned the reason for it.

This is a mine.

No, that's not right, it should be a metal mountain.

Longbo crouched down, picked up a dark brown "stone," crushed it forcefully, and stared at the dark brown fragments, lost in thought.

The metal here can no longer be described as ore; it's more accurate to say that the metal blocks are mixed with some soil and covered with dust that has accumulated over the years.

"The purity of Guinea's iron ore is simply inferior compared to this mountain."

Chapter 17 Forging, the Ivi Tribe

The brown mountains, over a kilometer high, rise like Godzilla's dorsal fin and stretch for tens of kilometers.

Emerald green crystals, hundreds of meters wide and tens of kilometers long, grew out of it, appearing randomly in the air, shimmering with strange colors.

Longbo wandered around the periphery of this metal mountain range that stretched for tens of kilometers, his feet landing on the dividing line between the gray-brown and emerald green world.

His target was a volcano on the other side of this metal mountain. He thought it was a waste to leave the metal mountain there and wanted to make use of it.

The mountain had an excessive metal content, making it seem easy to smelt, so he took immediate action after discovering the volcano.

He planned to forge one or two weapons for himself. As a humanoid Titan, the dexterity of his hands was unmatched by those giant minions, and it would be a shame not to carry something.

Our early human ancestors relied on their skillful hands and rudimentary weapons to wreak havoc on the earth and rise to become the dominant species at the top of the food chain.

If Longbo were to also wield a weapon, his combat power would increase by about one-third even without using the charged particle cannon.

Since the atomic behemoths possess the MUTO, which can interfere with their atomic breath ignition and energy concentration.

Who knows if a Titan might appear in the future that could interfere with the firing of its charged particle cannon?

Even without such a Titan, Lumbert did not forget that there are many monsters in the depths of the universe that are basically immune to ranged attacks, such as the most well-known cosmic dinosaurs.

In short, Longbo felt that he needed to get himself some weapons to play with.

As for how it is manufactured?

Longbo said he also knows a little about traditional steelmaking methods.

If it weren't for the fact that no iron or copper mines had been found in that area along the Yellow River, Longbo would have already pushed his Haqqa people into the Iron Age.

Building a furnace in the inner world might take some time, but Longbo doesn't have much time to spare right now, so he might as well get to it.

In high spirits, Longbo continued on his way and eventually arrived at an active volcano along the boundary between the metal mountain and the plain. He nodded in satisfaction as he looked at the scorching lava.

So from that day on, Longbo settled down in this place and began to recall and ponder the detailed process of ancient steelmaking.

...

In the Earth's core, there is no sun, and the surrounding scenery remains unchanged, making it difficult to perceive the passage of time.

However, Longbo learned about the specific passage of time from the increase in his age displayed on his own panel.

His age increased from 138 to 145, meaning he spent seven years on the edge of the volcano.

Its weight and height have also increased. Its height is estimated to be nearly 78 meters, and with the horns, it is close to 90 meters.

Weight cannot be calculated directly, but considering the accumulation of attribute points and the fact that he occasionally chews on high-strength metal to increase bone strength, it is estimated to be close to 70,000 tons.

After he set up the furnace and various facilities, the metal refining went smoothly, but the forging process was fraught with difficulties.

His forging skills can't be described as masterful; they're downright amateurish. Whether it's controlling the heat, the quenching process, or the balance, everything is a mess.

Moreover, there were problems with the metal raw materials. It wasn't that they were unsuitable for forging weapons; on the contrary, there was no more perfect material.
