Chapter 571: What Strange Behavior is Sheep Rescuing Wolves?

"They…"

"What happened!?"

"Were they poisoned?"

"Were they dying!?"

"Cackle ha ha ha…"

The four-legged "ordinary Pan-Spirit Deities" circled the collapsed two-legged ones, watching their bodies convulse as if shocked by lightning.

All being "ordinary Pan-Spirit Deities," they held no particular grudges against each other.

Yet as "Pan-Spirit Deities," they shared similar traits—larger ones being hot-tempered, smaller ones downright malicious.

Ordinary Pan-Spirit Deities were the smaller sort, often delighting in wickedness and kicking others when they were down.

But this time, these four-legged "small ones" had miscalculated.

"Sniff… sniff…"

A bold four-legged Pan-Spirit Deity twitched its nose, cautiously approaching the convulsing two-legged ones.

It selected one at the edge and lightly prodded it with a claw.

No reaction.

"Cackle ha ha ha—!"

"Serves you right, two-legged freaks!"

"You’re done for!"

"How hilarious…"

Just as it burst into mocking laughter—

"Fwoom—!"

That two-legged Pan-Spirit Deity abruptly began swelling!

"Gah—!"

The four-legged deity froze, staring bewildered at the monstrosity before it.

Then…

"Fwoom—!"

"Fsssh—!"

The two-legged Pan-Spirit Deities expanded one after another.

Like inflating balloons, they swelled larger and larger!

"Aooo—!"

"Oomph—!"

Ecstatic yet agonized roars erupted from their Souls.

The already long neck stretched out, like an invisible hand was pulling it, creaking as it grew longer and longer.

"Ga—!"

"Something strange was happening!"

"Run away!"

The four-legged Pan-Spirit Deities were originally malicious, waiting for the "two-legged things" to fall so they could grab shards of divine rank. Now, they were so scared that their souls felt detached, and they ran off everywhere!

Really, they didn’t need to run so fast.

At that time, the swelling of the "two-legged Pan-Spirit Deities" was far from done.

—-

"Ugh…"

"Uh…"

The souls of the two-legged ordinary Pan-Spirit Deities trembled and hummed.

Their divine bodies grew fast, hurting them and making them shake.

The well-arranged organs inside were slowly changing.

But they didn’t know if this change was good or bad.

The belly swelled quickly, and the stomach furnace and reaction channels kept lengthening. Clearly, they wouldn’t just eat shards of divine rank anymore; yet this new setup didn’t seem meant for other gods’ flesh!

Worse was coming.

Their teeth, once sharp and proud in the Primal Wilderness, were getting dull and small; the only good thing was more teeth grew, cramming their mouths.

Strange fine serrations popped up on their teeth.

They weren’t sure what the "Giant God" planned with this equipment.

Compared to all this worry, one good news: they had grown bigger!

And they grew huge!

Their small divine bodies blew up like balloons, swelling bigger!

Neck and tail stretched!

Though their long legs were still long, they looked short against their big bellies.

But no matter how many strange parts of the Giant God’s gift troubled them…

"Big!"

"That’s good!"

"Big!"

"That’s awesome!"

"Great Giant God!"

"Roar—!"

The simple ideas of respect and rank from the primordial gods of the Primal Wilderness still shaped them.

"Boom——!"

As they raised their long necks and strode forward on their sturdy legs between the void and the primordial realm, they felt immense power and overflowing confidence!

"Huff…"

The reborn deities exhaled heavily in joy.

From then on, the "ordinary Pan-Spirit Deities" would drop the "ordinary" title.

Their size now nearly matched the largest being in the entire "Primal Wilderness"—the "Vast Dragon God of the Mountain Type."

At least…

That’s how it looked.

But their pride didn’t last long.

"Ugh…"

The Giant God’s gift came at a cost.

Their wide, swollen stomach furnaces sent stronger warnings to their souls.

The "Giant Jaws Mark" etched on those massive stomach furnaces resonated steadily with marks in their companions’ souls. Intense emotions gripped the transformed deities, reminding them who had granted all this!

Time to repay the debt!

Yet, these creatures strangely ignored the "Giant Jaws Mark" warnings, enduring hunger’s agony.

That was rare among the Giant God’s clients.

It wasn’t that they refused repayment.

They wanted to test their new divine bodies’ power first!

Having such a prize, not using it would be a waste!

"Boom… Boom… Boom…"

Enormous feet pounded the earth as the colossal deities advanced slowly.

They easily crossed peaks of Primal Mud and spotted the Giant God circling the "Giant Spirit Gods"—once their hunters—in the lowlands.

They also saw massive beings crawling over the "Primal Mountain Range," heading toward the Giant God!

Perfect targets!

Let’s test our new bodies on you!

"Roar——!"

—-

"Hmm…"

"How odd."

Trilobite had finished his modifications and was pleased with the "Troodons."

Naturally, it drained much magic power.

He felt utterly spent!

But magic power meant little to him now.

Trading endlessly regenerating magic for the "Troodons" massive debt was a steal!

What truly puzzled him was a group lumbering slowly toward him.

Each had a bald head and thick, leathery skin.

Though short-tailed and not tall, they stretched five meters in length!

Shorter than Trilobite but heavier!

Yet their looks didn’t surprise him; odd as they were, they paled next to the Cranogryphus.

Their behavior baffled him.

This reckless group seemed hostile, growling at Trilobite with threatening warnings as they closed in.

Were they trying to rescue their possible natural enemy, the "Cranogryphus"!?

"What humpback whale nonsense…"

"Never mind—my clients will deal with you!"

"You lot…"
