[Special Species: Drill Rat King, Level 50. Possesses top-tier defense and attack power. Its enormous size also grants it wide-area attack capabilities. Overall evaluation: Extremely difficult to handle]

  Several lines of information fshed across Ye Lan’s interface. It was the Drill Rat King, the boss of the small Drill Rats Chuyue had easily defeated earlier! But the size difference was utterly ridiculous!

  Moreover, its level was astonishingly high. Even if she activated [Blood Armor], she wasn’t confident she could take it down. In short, the only option was to run!

  Ye Lan scooped up Chuyue and bolted in the opposite direction of the Rat King. The sheer size of the monster was overwhelming, comparable to the colossal creatures from the Ultraman series, towering at nearly 50 meters tall. With a single, casual swipe of its massive cw, an entire building crumbled into rubble in an instant.

  The scientists stood frozen in shock, their faces pale as they stared at the gargantuan beast. Fear overtook them completely, any thought of fighting vanished from their minds.

  "General! General! General! What do we do? Hurry up and think of a way to defeat it! General!... General?" When they turned to look for General Iron Blood, their faces fell. He was nowhere to be seen.

  Cd in his heavy armor, the General was running at full speed, his arms pumping furiously as he fled in the opposite direction.

  "To hell with fighting that thing! Do they think I’m Ultraman? That’s a level 50 boss! I’m only level 48! And don’t even get me started on how absurdly massive it is!" spat General Iron Blood.

  He had fought countless special species before and knew all too well what his limits were. Special species were inherently powerful, often capable of fighting well above their level.

  To take down a level 50 creature like the Drill Rat King, even if he joined forces with a hundred brave warriors, he would undoubtedly end up gravely injured.

  This is absurd! I’m the God of War of the United States! I’m the God of War of the United States! I carry the mission of saving all humanity on my shoulders! How could they expect me to fight a monster like that right now? Don’t they understand the importance of developing strength strategically and avoiding senseless risks?

  Wiping the sweat from his cheek, General Iron Blood nodded to himself with a solemn expression "Brave warriors, your sacrifices will not be forgotten!"

  Then, he ran even faster in the opposite direction, unaware that his astonishing speed had caught the attention of the Drill Rat King.

  The monster raised one of its enormous paws and swung it directly at General Ironblood, who was sprinting on the ground.

  "What ???"

  Three massive bck question marks appeared above General Ironblood’s head. In an instant, a gigantic cw, even rger than the roof over his head, descended directly toward him.

  Bang!

  A thick cloud of gray dust billowed into the air as the Drill Rat King slowly lifted its massive cw. Beneath it, General Iron Blood y sprawled on the ground, ft on his back, mouth agape, letting out a feeble puff of smoke.

  [Health Bar: 5000/5000][Super Shield ability activated, Immune to attacks exceeding 5000 damage points]

  He staggered to his feet, looking miserable. If not for his gear’s ability, that single blow would have been the end of him.

  "Damn it! A basic attack exceeds 5000 damage? This is ridiculous!" General Ironblood compined again. The Drill Rat King slightly puzzled, looked at its own cw, as if wondering how it hadn’t managed to finish off this human. Then, it raised its paw again, aiming for Ironblood.

  "This is too much! Too over the top! In that case, I have no choice but to show my humble skills!" Resigned, General Ironblood turned around and prepared to fight.

  With his greatsword in hand, he charged at the monstrous Drill Rat King, roaring with defiance. And after three rounds…

  "Aaaaahhhhh! Oh great Drill Rat King! Please, spare me! You’re so strong, majestic, and clearly a cut above the rest, surely you don’t need to sully your cws by crushing me, right?!" General IronBlood, gravely injured, forced a smile as he tried to negotiate.

  In just three rounds, his health had plummeted from 5000 to 100 points. What kind of monster is this? Ultraman, hurry up, please!

  "Help me! Jesus, the Three Pure Ones, Buddha, the Jade Emperor... anyone, please save me!" Ironblood desperately covered himself with both arms, shouting in despair.

  The Drill Rat King raised its massive cw once more, poised to strike down General Iron Blood. Just then, the United States Academy of Sciences finally intervened.

  [High-Spec Energy Projectile ? Fire]

  Ziu! Ziu! Ziu! Ziu! Ziu! Ziu!

  A missile resembling a meteor, streaked across the sky and collided with the Rat King, triggering a deafening explosion.

  "Did we win? Did we win?" General IronBlood muttered as he watched the smoke clear. However, when the cloud dispersed, the Rat King remained motionless. Its health bar had only decreased from 100,000 to 99,999.

  They hadn’t even scratched its defense.

  "This is beyond terrifying. Can humans even hope to defeat something like this?" General Iron Blood swallowed hard, his greatsword trembling in his hands.

  The Drill Rat King... had entered berserker mode.

  Meanwhile, Ye Lan had carried Chuyue to a safer location. Gently setting her down, she reached out and stroked Chuyue’s head.

  "Chuyue, be good. Stay here and don’t move. I’m going to defeat that monster" After saying this, Ye Lan turned around, ready to leave. However, Chuyue immediately reacted, grabbing her arm.

  "Mom, don’t go! They’re bad people! Why do you want to save them?" Chuyue asked, confused.

  Ye Lan let out a helpless sigh and gently patted Chuyue’s shoulders.

  "Not everyone is bad. There are good people too. Don’t worry, that monster is no match for me. I’ll handle it quickly and come right back, so be a good girl and wait here~"

  Hearing Ye Lan’s reassurances, Chuyue nodded obediently. To her, everything her mom said was the undeniable truth!

  Ye Lan turned her gaze to the colossal monster looming in the distance, and quickly she sprinted toward it. Of course, saving lives wasn’t her only motivation, this was also an opportunity to farm experience points!

  A monster of that size was undoubtedly a BOSS. Defeating it would yield a massive amount of experience. She had been stuck at level 10 for far too long, this was her chance to level up and grow stronger.

  To Ye Lan, that enormous creature didn’t seem like an unstoppable force of destruction. Instead, it looked like a giant, lumbering treasure chest bursting with potential rewards.

  "Hehe, experience, experience, here I come!" Ye Lan grinned as she advanced quickly.

  Meanwhile, the Rat King continued its rampage, leaving devastation in its wake. The academy had deployed every weapon at its disposal, yet the most they could achieve was a meager 2 points of damage per hit.

  "The gap is too overwhelming… Humanity is doomed…" Even though General Ironblood had regenerated his health bar, he had completely lost the will to fight.

  The Rat King took a deep breath and opened its mouth, unleashing its ability [Ultrasonic]. A powerful sonic wave violently expanded in all directions.Everyone hurried to cover their ears, feeling as if the nerves in their brains were about to be torn apart by the piercing sound.

  "So loud! Don’t you know beastkin ears are super sensitive? You almost made me deaf!"

  Suddenly, a figure in bright red appeared fleetingly in the air and threw a punch directly at the Drill Rat King’s face.

  Puff!

  The force of the blow sent a spray of saliva flying from the monster’s gaping maw, and the health bar above its head dropped significantly.

  [-1000 HP]

  Bang!
