Chapter 131: Isn’t This Much More Powerful Than the Water-Shooting Fish!?
"Ugh, that sounded terrible."
Trilobite gave the ancient lacewing bugs’ performance a very low rating.
"It was pure noise! Even a construction site pile driver sounded better than you!"
"Cricket or katydid chirps might’ve made me close my eyes and enjoy nature’s beauty."
"But with these pests…"
"I only felt nature beating me up!"
"Worse still, they lacked all self-awareness—why fly so low!?"
"Why get so close to me!?"
"Trying to disgust me on purpose!?"
"Just end it! Now!"
Trilobite filled his mouth with water and surged upward!
"Boom—!"
His colossal head, hundreds of meters tall, burst above the water’s surface like a mountain erupting from the depths!
"Splash—!"
"Crack—!"
The tiny bugs abandoned their noisy "concert," frantically flapping wings to dodge Trilobite’s colossal head.
"Meatlings, think you can escape that easily?"
Trilobite found it laughable.
He hadn’t planned to crush them with a headbutt.
"Taste this! Meatlings, my real finisher!"
"This time, it’s an AOE Skill!"
The Tiktaalik Fish’s tongue churned, forming a shifting channel; lung air rushed up his throat, blasting a torrent of water from his mouth.
"Whoosh—!"
Droplets exploded from Trilobite’s jaws, showering the sky!
Like a colossal sprinkler or a roaring fountain, it endlessly sprayed "fine" water jets!
As Trilobite swung his head, the droplets fanned across a vast arc.
Not a single Outer God from the Void in that zone escaped the deluge!
"Haha!"
"This beats any water-shooting fish!"
Trilobite gloated, eyeing the drenched wings.
"Now, for the next step!"
The Tiktaalik Fish fixed its gaze on the descending giant insects of the ancient lacewing order, its blurry yet distance-judging eyes constantly measuring the gap.
"Enough!"
—-
"Splatter—!"
Both Alebi and the other Outer Gods from the Void froze at the sight!
A massive golden droplet radiated loathsome, terrifying light as it rapidly dispersed through the air, viciously lunging at Them!
That was the scent of Order!
The scent of rules!
The dreadful scent of Shackles!
"No—!"
"What is this?!"
"Revolting! Evade it!"
Yet escape proved impossible.
Tiny droplets sprayed everywhere from the strange Outer God’s violent shudder, their initial velocity tremendous!
However frantically the Outer Gods beat their wings or strained to dodge the terrifying high-speed droplets, Their wings and bodies became inevitably stained.
The true horror began here.
Ordinary liquid—even etheric liquid—wouldn’t concern the Void’s Outer Gods.
They weren’t insects troubled by mere droplets; those whose young swam in etheric liquid possessed natural resistance.
Indeed, most powerful deities—be they Chaos Gods, Order Gods, or Outer Gods—feared no corrosion from etheric liquid.
Only lowly mortals and common demons dreaded etheric liquid’s "reductive" power.
But this spray from the strange Outer God was no common fluid.
Each droplet blazed with golden radiance.
Yet mere light couldn’t repel the Void’s Outer Gods.
They feared no "shimmering" things.
Rather, They held deep fondness—even reverence—for "Light"; often Their interactions with the Bubble World weren’t hostile.
Some Outer Gods even relinquished Their identities to embrace rules, assuming Light-related roles within the Bubble World.
Themis’s "God of Light" in the Bubble World exemplified this.
(Though this "God of Light" ultimately proved an unreliable traitor.)
These golden droplets differed from all light before.
When they struck the Outer Gods from the Void…
"Sizzle—!"
"Hiss—!"
Light smoke rose as the bodies of the Outer Gods from the Void curled and twisted, shaking from the pain.
They felt it—the small "golden droplets" were corroding their sacred and frenzied flesh.
Their divine armor crumbled before the golden droplets and was instantly burned through; while the pure physical toughness of their bodies could withstand the terrifying corrosion, the gruesome pain was unavoidable.
Worse yet, alongside the pain, the golden droplets interfered with their magic power, making it hard for them to cast any magic!
However, none of this was the deadliest part.
The worst happened to their wings.
"What… what was happening?!"
"Dammit!"
"Take off quickly!"
When the "golden droplets" caused pain to their bodies, the devastation on their wings was catastrophic!
"Sizzle!"
The wing membranes of the Outer Gods from the Void became stuck to the golden droplets!
The corrosive liquid slowly flowed along the veins of their wings, invading the wings of the Outer Gods from the Void!
Although these terrifying creatures, hundreds of meters long, did not rely on aerodynamics to fly, the golden droplets and the corrosion blocked the flow of magic power, making any magic on their wings useless!
And this meant…
"Buzz…"
"Boom!"
"Help!"
"I’m falling!"
"Ah—!"
The Outer Gods from the Void fell one after another!
Moreover, the larger ones endured more corrosion due to their greater surface area; they were the most unfortunate among them.
For instance, the largest of them…
Alebi, Ralekin’s third subordinate official, was the most unfortunate one.
"Boom—!"
"Splash—!"
He plunged straight into the water.
"No—!"
Alebi bobbed up and down on the surface, watching the colossal creature, more than twice his length, circling nearby.
Though the creature’s eyes revealed no emotional gaze, its inorganic silence and murderous intent made it seem like a terrifying guest from another world.
It felt as if its only purpose for existing here was to kill!
To devour!
Once confident, Alebi was now in a panic!
"Hurry!"
"Go send word!"
"Get help!"
A few Outer Gods from the Void, flying high and smaller with less wing damage, flapped toward the horizon; they quickly disappeared from sight.
However, Alebi did not realize he was achieving the opposite of his intentions.
"Oh?"
"The symphony of death has ended!?"
"Trying to escape?"
"Hehe, you dirty things want to flee after ruining my ears!?"
"No way!"
Trilobite looked up at the Outer Gods from the Void, covered in "water droplets," forced to "fly low" while trying to escape, his heart filled with delight and hunger.
Next, he would drag them down completely!
"Skill, activate!"
"Flip the World Off!"
"You scoundrels—!"
