Devouring

"Speaking of which, where 'Manaka? Tiamat's appearance was probably her doing."

Gorgon is still alive, and if it weren't for Manaka releasing Tiamat, who else in the entire Sea of Imaginary Numbers could it be? It couldn't possibly be Dark Leiao, could it?

However, no one really knew this, since Enlil had already been betrayed by Bai Lubao when Tiamat appeared.

Inside the Martial God Space, Bai Lubao had already told everything she could during her reminiscing with War God Ke Bao, but he was completely unaware of this matter.

"Hey, outsider, what are you worried about? You have power, yet you're afraid of a mere woman? I'm about to disappear, it's not like this is something you can't do in front of me."

Enlil frowned and asked, while Bai Mo's unease grew stronger.

"Forget it, let me retrieve the Heaven and Earth Demon God first. Besides, it's easy for you to say, how am I supposed to know how to return her to her juvenile form?"

Bai Mo walked towards the body of the Heaven and Earth Demon God. Kebao was right about one thing: this Heaven and Earth Demon God was indeed a practical thing, capable of changing freely.

Putting everything else aside, even if it were modified and turned into a knife, it might become a divine weapon even more useful than the Mad Giant Shark. This is a genuine 900,000 horsepower of power, and it also possesses enormous potential.

Moreover, Bai Mo was somewhat unaccustomed to constantly using the Giant Shark's weapon; after all, it was the Giant Shark's knife.

As he approached the Heaven and Earth Demon God and extended his hand, Bai Mo felt a sudden burst of intense heat erupt from his Metatron Award, as if it were a red-hot branding iron.

Then, a sudden change occurred!

Suddenly, billowing crimson smoke surged from all around, and a beastly roar resounded through the heavens and earth. From this deep underground fissure, several ferocious crimson beasts emerged from the ground, each with a unique, twisted, and bizarre appearance.

They roared to the sky, their cries echoing throughout Mesopotamia, even reaching Uruk in the distance.

On his throne in Uruk, Gilgamesh, who had just thought everything was resolved and poured himself a glass of ale, watched this scene unfold in the distance, and then his golden goblet fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty, that thing is..."

"It's the Beast— the Beast of Sodom," Mery explained with a surprised expression, but her surprise was more like that of someone who had discovered an Easter egg after watching the movie.

What happened?

Gilgamesh, the citizens of Uruk, and even the gods who were now just remnants of their souls all stared in disbelief at this scene.

"No, this thing is very weak, and its size is shrinking? What's going on?!"

Bai Mo immediately sensed the state of the beast in front of him. The roar of the Beast of Sodom was more like the last unwilling howl of a weak wild beast. Then, several of its heads drooped limply, like candles flickering in the wind.

He felt a blazing light appear before his eyes, and a massive suction force surged forth from in front of him, possessing a formidable power of nine hundred thousand horsepower, along with an astonishing flow rate surpassing that of the previous ones.

"Aww--!"

"Ah--!"

Beast of Sodom nor Tiamat let out a wail. Then, as if they had been swept into a deep-sea whirlpool, their massive bodies twisted violently, and their auras visibly weakened.

What exactly is this...?

Seeing this incredibly bizarre scene, everyone was dumbfounded. Bai Mo's eyes flashed, and he was about to unleash a God-Severing Thunderbolt when Enlil growled at him.

"Under!"

Bai Mo scanned the area and indeed found someone falling below. To be precise, it was a girl with the body of a young girl, long blue-green hair, wearing a strange pure white dress, and a small, thumb-sized animal horn that could be barely seen on her head.

Is that Tiamat?

Her breath was extremely weak, and her life force was no longer as strong as before; she was practically no different from an ordinary girl. As she fell, the remaining head of the Beast of Sodom pounced on her like a ravenous beast.

The Heaven and Earth Demon God before us possesses the strength of nine hundred thousand horses and seems to have absorbed Tiamat's life force; this attack may not be effective.

Bai Mo made a swift judgment, and his figure vanished instantly.

The monster before her opened its jaws, ready to swallow her whole. Its attention was completely focused on its prey, unaware that death was already approaching from the sky.

A blur of light landed directly on its head, Bai Mo, like steel bars falling from a tall building, shattered its skull.

God-Severing Thunderbolt!

In an instant, the beast's head, which had been baring its fangs and claws, turned to ashes, while the rest of its body was sucked up like noodles in a diner's mouth.

He handed the unconscious Tiamat to Arcueid and looked back. The Heaven and Earth Demon God had already devoured the two beasts. This terrifying biological weapon had now turned into a sphere and was no longer moving, but its aura was growing stronger.

When Bai Mo arrived in front of the sphere and reached out to sense it using the Asura Way, the sphere stretched like rubber, and through the semi-transparent membrane, a hand grasped Bai Mo's outstretched hand, their fingers interlocking.

The barrier receded, and the body of the Heaven and Earth Demon God before her was now that of a young girl with short golden hair and faint traces of blood on her milky white shoulders, as if she were a newborn baby.

This blood in her body added a touch of sinister charm to her innocent aura.

The girl's deep blue eyes gazed tenderly at the person before her. Her pale blue dress was parted, revealing scarlet six-wing patterns that stretched all the way to her throat.

"And so... we've finally reunited."

The girl before him was none other than Sajyou Manaka, who had been lost in the Sea of Imaginary Numbers. Bai Mo frowned and immediately withdrew his hand.

A bizarre scene unfolded: Manaka's body seemed to flow like water, moving down Bai Mo's arm to his back, where she affectionately wrapped her arms around his neck.

"This... needs to be washed thoroughly," Manaka said slowly. Her warm breath brushed against her neck, like a cheetah preparing to sever its prey's artery, moistening her parched throat and giving her a hearty drink.
