    Chapter 243: Powers Are Ugly!

    “Is this what they call a ‘Giant God’?”

    “Hmph…”

    Butis watched the deity battling the lowest rank Glanosuchus, slightly narrowing his eyes and getting ready to attack.

    But first, he wanted to check once more on this “Giant God” that caused endless trouble for core councilor "Lady Xidi."

    “No wonder mortals worship her.”

    “Her looks really fit what mortals find pleasing.”

    This Chaos Demon God saw things clearly; to him, the world wasn’t like a pixel game or Minecraft blocks—his eyes faced forward, giving him the 3D vision and sharp sight of a normal Divine Body.

    Even though she was very ugly and didn’t match human tastes at all.

    “See her slim shape, her strong legs, and her sharp claws.”

    “It fits the simple likes of mortals.”

    “But what’s the point?”

    Butis crept closer like a wolf stalking its prey.

    “This is a war zone, not a pretty face contest!”

    “Now…”

    The Chaos Demon God opened his mouth, gathering huge energy inside, about to fire a single “God-Slaying Spear”!

    But just then…

    “Hold on!”

    He stopped the magic before it shot out.

    “From the info we grabbed off the blood octopus Outer God, this ‘Giant God’ has weak magic power but tough magical resistance.”

    “She even beats the Star-Eater Plutonium Dragons with their ‘magic-insulated shell’!”

    “So far, no spell has worked on her!”

    “Hiss…”

    “She’s got some tricks.”

    “But in a fight of Divine Bodies, I won’t lose!”

    “Plus, it’s two against one!”

    “Thud…”

    Butis stepped quietly, yet the ground kept shaking hard.

    The big tremors jolted the “Giant God” awake!

    “Ha—Hiss—!”

    She smacked the lowest rank first, then whipped her opponent with her big tail, slipping free from the Chaos lowest rank’s grip like an eel from mud.

    “Oh no! Is she running?”

    Butis immediately activated his massive Divine Body and fiercely pursued after her.

    However, what he didn’t expect was that the "Giant God" only put some distance between herself and both the lowest rank Glanosuchus and himself, who had just arrived and stood firm at the designated position.

    "Ha—Hiss—!"

    She opened her mouth and roared, her presence still strong!

    "Whoa, is she planning to take us both on?"

    "Such dominance!"

    "You’re asking for death!"

    Butis thought that both he and the lowest rank’s Divine Body were larger than the "Giant God." Even in a one-on-one clash, the Giant God couldn’t win; they would only reach a stalemate, let alone two against one!

    At that moment…

    "Ha—Hiss—!"

    The "Giant God" swung her long tail in front of her, waving it continuously and making a "crackling" sound.

    "Buzz—!"

    "Buzz—!"

    Bright lights flickered on the tail whip, capable of disrupting chaotic power!

    A hit from that tail could scorch the Chaos Demon God’s skin, causing intense pain.

    The "Giant God" kept swinging her tail while slowly backing away.

    "Trying to retreat?"

    "Hmph, but you can’t escape!"

    "You have a tail whip, but I have…"

    Butis opened his mouth wide, widened his eyes, and made a "funny face" at the "Giant God"!

    As he made that face…

    "Buzz—!"

    The laws of the City of Dimensions began to spread throughout the space.

    "Ha—Hiss—!"

    The "Giant God" suddenly let out a miserable scream, painfully covering her eyes with her claws.

    If Butis used divine power to look, he would see many mortals and even demons in the moss-like forest painfully covering their eyes and rolling on the ground.

    Many people’s eyes were burned out by the "laws of the City of Dimensions" released by the Chaos Demon God!

    It seemed that just one glance at Butis would bring a terrible punishment!

    "Haha!"

    "Giant God! Didn’t see that coming, did you?"

    "This is my unique laws and Powers, Butis!"

    The so-called "laws" and "Powers" were actually a special "passive magic" that didn’t need magic power or only a tiny bit to work fully.

    However, the effects of "Laws" and "Powers" weren’t direct; they typically boosted oneself or weakened enemies.

    This resembled the "aura" mechanics in some games.

    Butis’s divine body wasn’t particularly strong, and though his magic stood out, it wasn’t top-tier. He climbed to the seventeenth rank mainly because he possessed a nearly unique Power—Light Evacuation.

    Any being who clearly witnessed Butis’s "law manifestation" would experience dizziness, sluggishness, intense eye pain, and vision blacking out.

    So far, this Power had never failed!

    It was precisely this Power that secured Butis his high position.

    But just then…

    “Thud… Thud… Thud…”

    Violent footsteps and crushing murderous intent suddenly erupted behind him!

    —-

    “Thud… Thud… Thud…”

    Trilobite ran while straining to identify the target ahead.

    “Hmm…”

    “The turtle-headed crocodile’s accounted for, so this one…”

    Trilobite suddenly felt he desperately needed an eye upgrade.

    “Dang, my pixel-vision resolution makes it tough to ID anything just from the back…”

    Early archosaurs showed little variation in body shape.

    After Dragon-type creatures went extinct, archosaurs abandoned their original lizard-type foundational form. From then on, they stopped resembling “dragons” and took on distinctly “beastly” traits—like their semi-upright gait, patchy fur, and stubby tails.

    Normally, a veteran paleontologist like Trilobite should’ve recognized this creature instantly. But his expertise lay in pterosaurs and ancient arthropods, not archosaurs.

    Besides, identifying a species depended mainly on anatomical features.

    Anatomy’s best studied through bone fossils; once muscles, fat, and skin covered the frame, recognition became tricky.

    “Whatever!”

    “I’ll know when I get closer!”

    “Thud… Thud… Thud…”

    Trilobite shook his bulky body and charged nearer.

    But right then…

    “Whoosh—!”

    The horrifying creature whipped around, shoving its hideous face toward Trilobite!

    “Yikes!”

    Trilobite jumped in fright!
