Chapter 202: If You Have the Skill to Break Figurines, You Have the Skill to Climb Down from the Tree!

Trilobite sank underwater.

Then, he began to dig!

"Splash—!"

"Splash—!"

He started digging into the ground about "over a meter deep" from the shore.

"Hmm, the soil near the lake shore seemed quite easy to dig."

"It didn’t feel like digging mud; it was more like swimming in a pile of sand."

"It was much easier than the previous ‘big sludge’ environment!"

Of course, Trilobite didn’t know that the so-called "soil near the lake shore" actually referred to the layers within the ordinary Bubble World; while the "big sludge environment" was part of the Quagmire Universe outside the Bubble World.

Digging channels in the Primal Mud required battling and taming the seemingly soft, yet actually hard particles of "Primal Mud" with their wildly chaotic energy.

But digging below the layers in an ordinary Bubble World was much simpler.

With Trilobite’s size and weight, he didn’t even need slime to dissolve rock layers; his massive frame and heavy, solid body were enough to break through tight strata, pushing forward as though "swimming" through sand.

Not to mention the glands hidden in his armor’s gaps secreted a "lubricating fluid" potent enough to tame Primal Mud, making rock dissolution effortless.

As for why he was doing this…

"I’m gonna give you one hell of a surprise!"

Trilobite was livid.

"Damn it!?"

"My freshly pulled SSR!"

"An SSR with huge growth potential!"

"You dare break my card and smash my figurine!?"

This thought sent Trilobite into a fury!

He pictured the ransacked room and toppled cabinet.

He imagined scattered plastic "broken limbs"—the RX-79 with its head twisted off, the VF-19 with snapped wings, the Knight Titan with a shattered leg, the tailless Tyrannosaurus model.

Though a paleontology enthusiast, what guy doesn’t love giant robots!?

Now his cherished collection was being wrecked before his eyes…

"Buzz—!"

It hit him fast!

His blood pressure spiked!

"Listen here—if my own son did this, I’d break his legs!"

"Let alone you… you worthless scrap!"

By now, Trilobite had pinpointed the culprit’s location using smell and lateral line.

He started turning around and charged upward through the "sand pile"!

"Die!"

"Roar—!"

"Boom—!"

Suddenly, the huge body of the Gasmarosaurus burst out of the sand pile, sending muddy sand flying everywhere!

"Roar—!"

His angry roar shook the world!

At that moment, he finally spotted the culprit about to wreck his "symbiotic creature No. 4," his sister!

"Tsk, what a freak!"

"Big size! Lots of meat!"

"Use your body to pay for the pain of my soaring blood pressure!"

"Roar—!"

He lunged at that guy, ready to bite!

—-

"Boom—!"

Like a volcanic eruption, the ground blew up!

It exploded right beside the Azure Emperor!

Giant rocks flew skyward like sand, raining down and smashing everything!

"Get cover!"

"Everyone, find cover!"

The rebel gladiator leaders yelled, scrambling to hide in corners to dodge the falling dirt.

"If you can’t find any, fire up the Solar Holy Light shields right away!"

"Quick!"

The Solar Holy Light shield was one of the basic divine techniques in the "Solar Holy Light system."

To Sulya and many clergy, it stood for the Giant God’s idea—shielding the weak and diversity.

This seemed a bit like the radical "Great Expedition," but Sulya felt they could work together—building a strong shield and protecting the fragile was the first step in the Giant God’s great plan.

But only the first step.

Only by fighting back hard, killing the evil gods that oppressed the weak in the "Five Hundred Bubble Worlds," and setting up shelters could a system for the weak to live be made.

Of course, it was pointless for the gladiators to think about that now.

The main thing was still to find cover and use the "Solar Holy Light shield."

Not dying at the hands of the Trinitum Clan and that nasty evil god, only to get caught in "God’s War," would be too unfair.

But none of them blamed the Giant God.

Because…

"Pray to the Giant God, and the Giant God actually came down himself!"

"Look! That holy body as big as a mountain, sending out life and power to push away the chaos!"

"Great!"

…

Amid the cheers of the gladiators and the First Paratrooper, the Giant God rushed at the Chaos Demon God!

But…

"Something’s wrong!"

Angna watched the Azure Emperor’s actions.

She seemed to smell a plot.

"He wasn’t surprised at all."

"He was too calm!"

—-

The Azure Emperor saw a scary "thing" almost twice his size burst out from under his feet, making the earth break apart!

"Whoosh—!"

It shot up with lots of rocks and dirt, crashing to the ground like a huge crocodile with a loud "bang!"

"Boom—Boom—Boom—!"

The ground shook from the hit, and cracks opened everywhere!

"Roar—Roar—Roar—!"

"Ah!"

The big, clumsy "chaotic eggs" screamed as they fell down one by one.

They felt no fear, only showed their shock with loud cries.

For the "chaotic eggs," not thinking clearly or feeling much might be good luck.

At least they didn’t have to face the pain of fear!

Compared to them, the Azure Emperor, who changed them from normal people into this mess, was in a worse spot.

He gave off strong anger, and even worse, a scary feeling that filled him with deep fear spread through the air!

It was the feel of a strong predator!

The feel of an enemy!

This raw fear, coming from being weak and small prey, was likely the first time the proud Azure Emperor felt it.

Of course, if he didn’t act fast, it might be his last time!

But the Azure Emperor pushed down that feeling and steadied himself.

"The position is perfect."

"Distance was just right."

"Everything went according to the script I discussed with Lady Xidi!"

"Then…"

"Run!"

He turned around, shamefully exposing his back to the Colossal Giant God, fleeing toward the towering Emperor Wood Solar Trees like pillars holding up the sky!

Like a squirrel facing a leopard or a monkey confronting a tiger.

"Run?"

Trilobite scoffed and charged forward!

"Heh, I’ve recognized your species!"

"Your long tail is perfect for arboreal life; your claws and legs are better for gripping and slow climbing than running."

That fellow had enormous scythe-shaped claws on his thumbs—though intimidating, they severely hindered mobility.

When the Azure Emperor walked on land, he even had to "fold" his thumbs.

Somewhat like a sloth crawling on the ground.

How could he move fast like that?

"Maybe climbing trees suits you, but running? No way!"

"Even I, the Gasmarosaurus, outrun you!"

"After all, I’m a true dragon!"

"Roar—!"

Trilobite swung his powerful limbs, easily…

"Damn it!"

He shouted angrily!

Though that creature ran slowly, his nest—that "small tree"—stood too close.

He scaled the "tree" in mere strides.

Trilobite chased desperately behind but missed biting his tail.

"Huff…"

Furious, Trilobite paced around the base like a Catamount craving a sloth or a tiger eyeing a monkey.

Of course, this Gasmarosaurus lacked the climbing capability of big cats.

Big cats were naturally superior climbers.

Incidentally, ignore those tales about cats withholding tree-climbing skills from tigers—just children’s stories…

Tigers climb trees quite well.

They avoid it only because their weight—two to three hundred kilos—exceeds most branches’ strength!

"Hmm…"

"Damn!"

"This creature planned it all along!"

"He’s not foolish enough to miss ground tremors."

"He likely pre-chose this escape route, waiting to climb the tree the moment the ground cracked."

The Azure Emperor climbed higher and higher.

Probably beyond middle-finger range now.

"Hiding in the tree, eh?"

Trilobite growled, circling angrily.

After two rounds, an idea struck him!

"Just wait, you sly pest!"

"Don’t think climbing saves you from me!"

Cursing angrily, Trilobite stomped backward several paces.

Then…
