Amidst the ruins of the banquet hall.
The huge crater left by the Psychic Power explosion is still emitting acrid smoke.
The entire hall had become a desolate wasteland.
Not even the molten metal and the carbonized corpses remained.
The energy turbulence generated by the Psychic Power explosion is still raging in the air.
It makes a sizzling sound.
At the deepest part of the pit.
A bloody, mangled piece of flesh was twitching slightly.
It was a lump of flesh with a huge mouth on top.
The terrifying explosion of the Annihilation Spirit Box nearly destroyed Ragnar's entire body.
But this enormous mouth miraculously survived.
It's like a huge, beating heart of a behemoth.
After a while, he even began to slowly crawl on the ground.
A dark green bloodstain was left behind.
Its vitality is outrageously tenacious.
"Da, da, da~~"
A soft footstep came from the edge of the pit.
Several human soldiers who rushed over cautiously entered the ruins.
They were members of the nearby 4th Marine Regiment who, after hearing the explosion, broke through multiple encirclements and rushed to the vicinity of the bridge to provide support.
What exactly happened here?
A soldier shone his flashlight around and said in a trembling voice.
The desolate scene sent chills down their spines; they couldn't believe what had happened there.
Swallowing hard, the leading soldier decided to lead the group on a tour of the area.
Search for surviving enemies or allies.
Just then...
The soldier at the very back suddenly felt something soft under his feet.
"Um?"
He lowered his head and shone the flashlight on it.
When he saw what was under his feet, his face turned deathly pale.
"What, what is that?!"
He shouted in terror.
The other soldiers quickly turned their heads and looked in the direction he was pointing.
All that could be seen was the gigantic, bloody, mangled mouth, slowly wriggling on the ground.
Its surface is covered with a dense network of blood vessels.
It opened and closed, making a strange hoarse sound.
It looks absolutely disgusting.
"Vomit..."
One of the soldiers couldn't help but gag.
"What the hell is this?"
"It looks like a big mouth!"
"Impossible! How could anything still be alive after such a terrifying explosion?"
The soldiers were so shocked by this bizarre scene that they were speechless.
Their faces were filled with fear.
"Whatever it is, shoot!"
The leading veteran was the first to react.
He raised the Lasgun in his hand, aimed it at the giant mouth, and pulled the trigger.
"Sizzle!"
A red laser beam struck the surface of the giant mouth.
But the giant mouth only trembled slightly.
The laser left a shallow scorch mark on its surface.
It is impossible to cause it any real harm.
"Useless?!"
The veteran's expression changed drastically.
"Open fire, everyone!"
"Sizzle! Sizzle!"
All the soldiers pulled the trigger at the same time.
Bombs and lasers rained down on the giant mouth.
The giant mouth was smashed open, its flesh and blood splattering everywhere.
Dark green blood splattered everywhere.
But its peristalsis remained completely unaffected.
Instead, it became even more ferocious because it was attacked.
Its wriggling speed suddenly increased.
It lunged at the two soldiers closest to it.
"Ah! Run!"
The two soldiers were terrified.
They turned and ran.
But how could their speed possibly match the ferocious giant maw?
"Awoo!"
Its giant mouth suddenly opened to its widest extent.
A tremendous suction force erupted from within.
The two soldiers who were running at the back were instantly sucked off the ground.
They screamed in terror.
Then, it was swallowed whole by the giant mouth.
They were left with nothing, including their weapons.
There were only the crisp sounds of bones cracking and chewing.
The remaining soldiers were so terrified by this scene that they stood frozen in place.
They had never seen anything so terrifying.
He survived being beaten like that.
It can swallow two grown men whole.
This is beyond their comprehension.
"Run, run fast!!!"
Someone shouted.
The remaining soldiers then seemed to snap out of their daze.
They turned and ran.
I wish I had two more legs.
But it was too late.
After swallowing two soldiers.
The giant-mouthed creature has noticeably grown larger.
Moreover, two thick arms grew out from its sides.
Sharp claws grew on its arms.
Its two arms supported it on the ground, making it move even faster.
It moved swiftly and eerily, like a giant spider.
They chased after the fleeing soldiers.
"Ah!!!"
Screams rang out one after another.
One soldier after another was caught by the giant mouth and swallowed whole.
Their weapons and armor were of no use against the giant mouth.
At this moment, they were no different from lambs to the slaughter.
In just a few minutes.
All eight soldiers were swallowed whole by the giant mouth.
After devouring eight soldiers in succession.
The giant maw let out a satisfied roar.
This roar was no longer the strange, guttural sound it had been before.
Instead, it was filled with power and ferocity.
Then, something even stranger happened.
Above the giant mouth, chests, a neck, and a head began to grow rapidly.
Below, two thick legs also grew out.
Dark green muscles and blood vessels writhed rapidly across his body surface.
The clicking sound of bones growing is enough to make your teeth ache.
But his energy levels didn't seem sufficient to fully restore him to his peak condition.
The outermost layer of skin has yet to grow back.
He is now like a Orks that has been peeled off.
A four-meter-tall "blood-soaked man".
His skin had completely disappeared.
Exposed muscles and blood vessels, exposed to the air.
It kept throbbing.
His eyes were pure black.
There is no white in the eye, and no pupil.
It radiated an inhuman light.
The enormous mouth on his stomach was still there.
It opened and closed its mouth, drooling a dark green color.
Although he looked extremely miserable.
But the aura emanating from him remained as violent and dangerous as ever.
Ragnar flexed his fingers.
Feel the renewed surge of power within me.
Although he has not yet recovered to his peak condition.
But that's enough.
That's enough for him to kill that damned little nobleman.
He looked up and gazed toward the bridge.
His nose twitched slightly.
He can smell it.
There was plenty of fresh flesh and blood there.
It also has the taste of Dominic.
That shrimp he hated to the core.
Thinking of Dominic.
More saliva flowed from the giant mouth on Ragnar's belly.
"Food..."
"Shrimp..."
Ragnar let out a hoarse growl.
He took off running, sprinting towards the bridge.
Rough footsteps echoed in the empty corridor.
Each step left a huge bloody footprint on the metal floor.
He had just run out of the corridor and arrived at the entrance to the banquet hall.
A purple figure suddenly descended from the sky.
It was hanging upside down in front of him.
The newcomer was dressed in purple bio-armor.
The armor surface gleamed with a metallic sheen.
He was wearing a full-face mask.
Two eyes stood out prominently on the mask.
One gold, one purple.
It exudes a suffocating sense of oppression.
He remained suspended upside down in mid-air, completely still.
Looking down at Ragnar from his elevated position.
The voice was calm and indifferent.
At the same time, it carries an irresistible aura of authority.
"I didn't say you could leave, Xenos."
