Volume One, Chapter Four: Devouring Golzan, Enhancement of the Devouring Skill
Boom!
As the dust from the explosion slowly settled, Lin Yu stood firm on the scorched and shattered earth. Beneath his feet lay Gorzhan, its body pierced through.
This scene was simultaneously transmitted back to the TPC.
Everyone watched the screen in stunned silence at the sight of Gorzhan’s charred corpse.
“Another instant kill! And didn’t this monster Zetton just disappear and reappear? Is that teleportation?” Shinjo’s voice trembled with shock. Although there was Melba’s precedent, the data indicated that Gorzhan’s strength was clearly superior to Melba’s. Yet, even so, this monster called Zetton had taken Gorzhan down in a single move.
However, as a scientist, Juejing was more focused on a different aspect: during the battle, Zetton had vanished suddenly and then reappeared, seemingly performing the legendary teleportation!
“Yarui, did Zetton use teleportation during the fight?” Juejing asked.
Yarui gave a definite confirmation.
“My god, teleportation really exists! This will push many of our TPC research papers forward!”
“This Zetton really has such a powerful skill!” Juejing exclaimed, full of genuine awe.
At that moment, Yarui shouted again.
“My god, Zetton’s body energy readings show it's almost dying, so how could it still instantly kill Gorzhan?”
As a data analyst, Yarui had just completed a full analysis of Zetton’s data. To his utter surprise, despite having devoured Melba, Zetton’s physical condition was still critical.
“Yarui, you’re saying Zetton is still in a near-death state?” Kujima asked.
“That’s right. According to the data, this Zetton has at most seven days left to live.”
Shinjo was shocked, pointing at the screen where Zetton stood triumphantly over Gorzhan. “Yarui, are you sure your analysis is correct? How does that look like a dying creature?”
“Exactly! A dying monster killing Gorzhan instantly? This is unbelievable!” Rina also voiced her doubts. From her perspective, Zetton’s posture on screen didn’t look like it was about to die.
Meanwhile, Daigo, the human host of Ultraman Tiga, observed Zetton carefully. He noticed many wounds covering the monster’s body, confirming it was severely injured.
Yet this only deepened Daigo’s unease. If this beast was so ferocious while near death, what would it be like at its peak?
Just as Daigo worried, the image on the screen shifted.
On the battlefield,
Lin Yu lifted Gorzhan’s body beneath him and directly activated his devouring skill.
In the next instant, two large yellow lights on his chest emitted dense black smoke. The smoke spiraled, forming a black vortex with immense suction power that absorbed Gorzhan’s corpse completely.
Immediately, some of the fierce wounds on Lin Yu’s body began to heal.
[Successfully devoured monster Gorzhan! Evolution achieved!]
Accompanied by the system’s prompt, Lin Yu’s status panel began to change.
