Chapter 362: What Blasphemy!!! 4/6

"Excellent!"

"An old acquaintance—this should be much easier."

Trilobite watched the animal enter the "Consultation Room" and nodded with delight.

"Isn’t this an Erelasaurus?"

"We’ve already met twice!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

"My precious! You’ve finally fallen into my hands."

After guiding so many ancient creatures through biological evolution, a proper dinosaur had finally come his way.

"Who wouldn’t adore a large theropod dinosaur with a massive head and thick neck?"

For many, fascination with paleontology begins with dinosaurs—especially magnificent, awe-inspiring creatures like Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Trilobite was no exception.

As a child, he’d been obsessed with giant carnivorous dinosaurs, just like other kids. He’d saved every coin to buy dinosaur models.

But unlike others, he carried this passion into adulthood and made it his life’s work.

He was utterly content.

So content that he felt no need for romance.

Studying dinosaurs and ancient life felt like resting in Mother Gaia’s embrace, exploring her every wonder through wisdom and science!

Far more thrilling than any romance!

In short, dinosaurs—especially those giant theropods with bulky heads and thick necks—were his greatest joy.

They were, without doubt, his entire childhood!

Now he’d finally take charge of evolving a giant theropod dinosaur. Trilobite’s excitement rivaled Gollum clutching the One Ring, or John Cena meeting his idol.

Pure bliss!

"Gulp…"

He swallowed the drool pooling at his lips.

"Taking charge…"

"Hehehe, I’ll make you perfect!"

"Turn you into a superstar!"

After a fit of gleeful chuckling, Trilobite finally examined the client’s "sketch."

Then fury seized him.

"Blasphemy!"

"What utter blasphemy!"

"You’ve ruined a fine Erelasaurus—what monstrosity is this?!"

"Such a waste! Such a sin!"

"Completely clueless, no common sense at all!"

"He was so angry!"

Trilobite was very angry.

It was like hearing someone call the "Ultimate Warrior" a "Blue Gunner."

Or like little John Keats hearing that Yui Aragaki had changed her name to Yui Hoshino.

"If I had known you made such modifications, I should have corrected you the last time we met."

It wasn’t long since he last met this "customer."

It was right when he bit the Theriodont to death.

From the moment he saw this Erelasaurus, Trilobite felt something was off.

Although the size was increased and it still resembled an Erelasaurus, it clearly lacked the robust features matching its size.

Now, looking closely, it was even more obvious.

The "person" who did the previous modifications was obviously out of their depth; they simply scaled up the Erelasaurus without understanding balance, causing it to be unstable.

So they messed with the weight randomly, treating symptoms instead of the root problem…

Although in the end, the whole body structure managed to stand, it was a total mess!

It became a crippled dinosaur…

"Ah, growing larger isn’t just about simple scaling up, why couldn’t they get that!"

Many people often said that if tigers were the same size as cats, they wouldn’t beat them…

That showed a lack of common sense.

A tiger, due to its size needs, had different bone density, muscle strength, and robustness compared to a cat.

You could tell just by looking at their claws and legs.

Even a tiger that had just learned to move had more power than a similarly sized big cat subspecies, easily overpowering a cat or dog of equal weight.

"In short…"

"It needed serious changes!"

"The bones that needed thickening had to be thickened!"

"But the hollow cavity structure inside the bones could also be expanded properly; not only did it cut weight, but many arched shapes supporting each other also boosted the bones’ overall strength."

"Muscles needed strengthening too."

"The forelimbs…"

"Didn’t need much change since the Erelasaurus’s forelimbs were already under half the length of the hind legs, almost like many classic theropod dinosaurs."

"The biggest fixes had to be done to the head!"

The main difference between the Erelasaurus and other theropod dinosaurs was its "square head," while other theropods’ heads had smoother, rounder curves that looked nicer.

"Seriously, how ugly was it to have a square head like a brick?"

"Stretch it a little longer, add some curves."

"Increase the width of the skull, and enlarge the back temporal fenestra slightly to attach more biting muscles and enhance the bite force!"

"Widen the body cavity!"

"Only then will it have presence…"

"Fill the lung air sacs to the max!"

"The ancestral skill of the dinosaur order, isn’t it time to strengthen it!?"

"It can support the structure, reduce weight, and improve breathing efficiency."

"Why not have more of such good things!?"

"Why do we need five fingers? Let’s reduce it to three!"

…

Trilobite was excitedly working away.

Soon, the first stage was complete.

"Well, let’s leave it like this for now."

He looked at his creation—a very typical, classic, and even ordinary carnivorous theropod dinosaur—and nodded in satisfaction.

"Great!"

"It was not only a superstar, but also a dinosaur of great significance for us paleontology researchers, all paleontology enthusiasts, and even all humans!"

—-

"Young lady…"

"Young lady!"

Lady Xidi suddenly opened her eyes, seeing Gimmerly’s worried and beautiful face, and Saraph’s thoughtful expression.

"What… happened just now?"

"Um…"

She sighed softly.

She recalled some details.

"I felt a very powerful and broad will, joyfully observing me."

"It was as if I was seeing a long-lost lover."

"Very excited, and very infatuated with me."

"But soon, it became angry."

"It accused me of blasphemy and degrading myself, and then began very detailed modifications on my divine body…"

…

At this thought, an almost imperceptible blush appeared on Lady Xidi’s icy face for some unknown reason.

"Um—!?"

Gimmerly asked a meaningful question, deliberately dragging out her last syllable.

She stealthily glanced at Amon.

Amon, or rather Saraph, seemed extremely angry, her eyes nearly shooting up to the sky.

"What nonsense were you spouting!?"

Saraph stuttered, stumbling over her words.

"The Giant God hated chaos so much!"

"How could he say such things to you, an evil demon god…?"

"I couldn’t accept this, absolutely could not accept it!"

How annoying! Why not come at me instead?

I admired you so much!

Seeing Saraph filled with pent-up anger, Gimmerly’s lips curved into a smirk, a playful glint in her eyes.

"Wow—!"

She opened a folding fan that appeared from nowhere, covering her mouth, and spoke in a very "social butterfly" tone…

"Oh dear, young lady."

"What you just said wasn’t right."

"Now, aren’t you an evil demon god as well?"

"The Giant God was so great, he must have had his own deep meaning, right?"

Saraph trembled with anger.

But there was nothing she could do.

Lady Xidi shook her head, sitting up straight.

"The Giant God weaves schemes and manipulates the universe like a chessboard; his capability is strong."

"I could not compare to him."

"Nor could I fathom his intentions."

"But I have one thing to share with you, Saraph."

She stood up and walked in front of Saraph.

"Thud…"

This time, it was an even match.

"Admiration is the furthest emotion from understanding."

"Let’s go…"

Just as Lady Xidi was about to take Gimmerly back home…

"Buzz…"

An Outer God from the Void transformed into a black butterfly and slowly flew over, landing on Lady Xidi’s fingertip.

"Delivering a task?"

"Hehe, Barbatos was quick in his actions."

"Had he traced the Giant God’s whereabouts so soon?"

The Outer God gently flapped its wings.

"The whereabouts of the Giant God remained unclear."

"But a group of ‘Armored Vast Dragon Gods’ had invaded from the Primal Wilderness!"

"They had breached the border defenses and were rampaging at the edge of the Fantasy Tree of Subspace!"

"The First Demon God requested the Fourth Demon God, Lady Xidi, to engage in battle!"

Hearing this news, Lady Xidi gasped in shock.

"Barbatos still wanted me to die!"
