HBWnovel Chapter 48 Farewell to the Mysterious Drop
Chapter 48 Farewell to the Mysterious Drop
Su Su was in the same predicament at this time; he had neither the body of Ta Shan nor the starlight of Xu Si.
She only had her fists to rely on, but there was nothing she could do against such a huge and bizarre creature.
Only the giant hand of the towering elephant could still move, and it hurled Xu Si at the giant elephant like a baseball.
Xu Si was thrown towards the molten wax behemoth by Ta Shan like an arrow released from a bow, the strong wind making his cheeks look cold and sharp.
He forcefully steadied himself, and the "Star Trail" property was operating at its limit. The trajectory of energy flow on the giant elephant was clearer than ever before in his eyes.
Right below the chest of that massive body, there was an unusually condensed, constantly pulsating core of dark energy!
That's it!
"Xiao Luo! Chest!" Xu Si roared in mid-air, his fingertips shooting out arrows to guide Xiao Luo in the right direction.
Then the "Starburst" gathered in his hand.
Almost at the same moment he spoke, an invisible wave of psionic energy spread out from the direction of the Warrior vehicle, precisely enveloping the massive body of the Molten Wax Behemoth.
The giant elephant abruptly stopped swinging its trunk, and a look of bewilderment flashed in its eyes, which were made of solidified wax.
It's now!
Xu Si poured half of his energy into his right palm, and the energy of Sequence 2 surged endlessly into the "Starburst".
The energy ball, which was originally only the size of a red bean, instantly expanded to the size of a fist. Its surface shimmered with blood-red light, and the starlight inside was compressed and rotated wildly, emitting a terrifying aura of destruction.
The molten wax behemoth seemed to sense the threat as well. Recovering from the brief stun caused by the surge of psionic energy, it let out an angry roar. Countless wax tentacles frantically retracted, weaving together to form a thick wax shield in front of its chest, while its massive body attempted to retreat.
But Xu Si had already been thrown to extremely close range by Ta Shan, how could it be allowed to escape?
"Blast it, you bastard!"
Xu Si was enveloped in starlight, roared, and slammed the "Starburst" he had condensed to its limit into the location where the energy core was surging!
boom--!!!
A deafening roar was accompanied by a blinding crimson light that suddenly exploded!
The violent stellar energy, like a supernova explosion, swept wildly outwards from the point of impact!
The shockwave instantly tore through the thick wax shield and pierced deep into the energy core of the molten wax behemoth!
A huge cavitation zone appeared on the chest of the Wax-molten Behemoth, and its abdomen almost disappeared into nothingness, leaving only the enormous head of the Wax-molten Behemoth.
"Awooo—!!!"
The molten wax behemoth let out an extremely mournful howl, revealing its dark red energy core, which was now covered and enveloped by surging wax oil around it.
The wax on its body began to fluctuate violently and become extremely hot, making its massive body sway precariously.
"He's not dead!" Xu Si's heart sank.
"Seiya"
Before he could gather a second "Starburst," his longsword was drawn, and red light suddenly converged.
The Sword of Punishment became the best vessel for Seiya, shooting straight toward the energy core, which was still in a semi-exposed state.
The sword was directly embedded in the cracked energy core of the giant elephant, where dark green corrosive power and violent stellar energy intertwined and destroyed wildly inside the core.
The molten wax behemoth's screams abruptly ceased. Its massive body convulsed violently, and the wax that made up its body began to collapse and melt in large sections, like ice cream melting under the scorching sun, as if it had lost its support.
[Purify Level 2 Eerie Creature - Molten Wax Behemoth (Large Form), Purification Points +2500]
[Strange Drop Detected: Molten Wax Behemoth Heart]
The notification that rang in his mind jolted Xu Si in the air!
Become!
And finally, the loot dropped!
However, he was too happy too soon. Beneath him was a sea of melting, flowing wax. With no foothold in mid-air, Xu Si plummeted straight down.
"Knife, hold on!" Ta Shan shouted, pounding the ground with both hands again. A huge stone pillar rose up from under Xu Si, and Xu Si used it to stand firmly.
Xu Si then realized that the wax covering Tashan was also beginning to melt, which allowed Tashan to escape danger.
With the death of the molten wax behemoth, the surrounding surging wax waves lost their activity, melting rapidly and then flowing slowly until solidifying, returning to hard, grayish-white wax blocks.
But the convoy remained stuck, with most of the vehicles completely encased in solidified wax.
The area below the bus windows was completely covered in wax.
Xu Si's "Land Rover narrowly wins" was thrown more than 100 meters away by the wax, and now only the roof is visible.
Tashan was panting heavily, his rock armor covered in solidified wax. He struggled to get out of the wax, only to find his body sealed tightly by the wax.
"I'm fine... I just can't move my lower body," he said in a muffled voice, his face showing exhaustion.
Su Su also leaped out from behind a pile of wax. She had just dodged the direct impact of the wax wave with her agility, but she was covered in wax stains and looked a bit disheveled.
Her gaze towards Xu Si was complicated; the power of that "Starburst" attack had made her truly feel the difference between sequences.
Fu Xiaojian led Xiao Luo out of the sunroof of the Mengshi bus and quickly helped clean up the wax covering the bus.
The survivors inside the bus were unharmed, but when the wax was about to bury the convoy, they truly experienced what despair meant.
"Knife, well done!"
Tashan was finally rescued by Su Su. Stepping on the hardening wax, he quickly stepped forward, patted Xu Si on the shoulder, and his eyes were filled with undisguised joy at surviving the ordeal.
He originally thought he was really going to become the giant, eerie creature's poop, but unexpectedly, Xu Si actually killed this terrifying creature all by himself.
"Don't talk about that now, let's clean up quickly and get the car out."
Xu Si shook his head and picked up the grayish-white "stone," which seemed to contain a burning candle flame.
[Mysterious Drop Found: Molten Wax Behemoth Heart]
[Item Properties: Shaping, Mimicry, Energy Absorption]
[Upgrade Option 1: Enhanced Vehicles]
[Description: Want to give your car a new look?]
[Estimated Purification Points Consumption: 1800]
Xu Si's heart skipped a beat. If it was about enhancing vehicles, this seemed to be more suitable than the Stone Statue Heart!
He desperately needs to upgrade the performance of the "Land Rover Narrowly Wins".
He carefully put away the [Heart of Molten Wax Behemoth] and joined the cleaning team, wondering if the dried fish hanging on the car would still be edible after being ruined like this.
The rock-clad car cleaners in Tashan have a unique advantage in cleaning; they can simply insert their hands into the wax and pull the car out.
It's much faster than anyone else doing it themselves.
After nearly half an hour of work, the convoy's main vehicles—the Mengshi, the pickup truck, the bus, and Xu Si's "Land Rover Narrowly Victorious"—were finally rescued.
Fortunately, no important parts of the vehicle were damaged; only the hot wax corroded the paint surface quite a bit.
