Meanwhile, Dr. Animo had already gone after Diamondhead.
"Hey, little Ben, how did you travel through time to get here? Tell me, and I won't kill you." Dr. Animo leaned in curiously, looking him over.
Diamondhead snorted. "Loser. Let this hero teach you how the world works."
With that, Diamondhead raised his arms and turned them into twin blades, clashing fiercely with the white-haired ape.
For a while, the two fought evenly, neither able to gain the upper hand.
...
On Lucian's side.
Way Big was using his flight ability to temporarily suppress the Diamond Giant.
Thankfully, as powerful as those two giants were, they couldn't fly, which gave Way Big a chance to breathe.
That was the advantage of fighting from long range against a short-ranged opponent.
Still, because of the Petrosapien traits in its body, the Diamond Giant could also fire spikes and other ranged attacks.
So Way Big still had to be extremely careful not to get hit.
At that moment, Way Big stood in the air.
His left arm stretched out horizontally, his right arm raised vertically.
A blue Cosmic Ray burst forth, surging ahead with destructive energy.
In the next second, the Diamond Giant actually copied the same motion.
Left arm out, right arm raised. The movement was a little stiff, but it was unmistakably the opening stance of Cosmic Ray.
A jade-green energy wave erupted from its crystal arm, mixed with a barrage of crystal spikes, and met Way Big's attack head-on.
Rumble!
Heaven and earth trembled. The sun and moon seemed to lose their color.
The collision of the blue and green energy waves unleashed a shrieking hurricane. All living things within thousands of miles were so terrified by the deafening blast that they trembled in place, unable to move.
"So strong..." Way Big gritted his teeth, feeling the pressure bear down on him.
The Diamond Giant's attack contained not only Cosmic Ray, but also Diamondhead's crystal spikes. The two complemented each other perfectly, pushing its power to a terrifying level.
[Ding~ Fatal threat detected!]
[Alien Hacker mission triggered!]
[Kill the Diamond Giant and the Evil Giant!]
[Mission complete reward: one random Alien Hero!]
The system's voice suddenly rang out in Way Big's mind.
"Killing those two won't be easy..." Way Big muttered inwardly. He was already reaching his limit.
"Hehe, let me help you out!" Ghostfreak's laughter came from behind him.
Way Big's face fell. He wanted to turn around and attack Ghostfreak, but he couldn't. If he did, the energy wave would rip him apart instantly.
"Qi Mo Wave!"
"Water Dragon Soul!"
Just then, Gwendolyn arrived with Gwen, flying through the air as they launched an attack at Ghostfreak.
A golden magic wave and a roaring blue water dragon rushed at him in the blink of an eye, like two wild dragons dancing through the sky.
Ghostfreak let out a shrill scream, furious. He turned at once and charged at the two girls, intent on tearing them to pieces.
That opening gave Way Big a chance to catch his breath.
He released his energy wildly to hold back the incoming wave for the moment, then began spinning rapidly in midair.
The sharp red fins all over his body became streaks of red light like whirling blades, and the immense force kicked up a fierce gale.
In an instant, Way Big turned into a gigantic red tornado.
The Diamond Giant's energy wave struck in the next moment.
Clang clang!
The violent green death beam kept slamming into the tornado, but it was shredded apart by the sharp red fins and overwhelming force, breaking into scattered green fragments that flew through the sky.
Part of the energy even rebounded onto the Diamond Giant, blasting large holes into its body.
The Diamond Giant let out a low growl and stopped attacking. Its body was coming apart as it staggered backward.
At the same time, Way Big stopped spinning and dove straight down.
That mountain-sized iron fist, carrying immense momentum, smashed brutally into the Diamond Giant's head.
Boom!
The Diamond Giant's green head shattered instantly.
Its enormous body could no longer keep its balance and fell straight backward.
Way Big landed. Still not fully reassured by the sight of the headless giant, he fired a Cosmic Ray and completely destroyed the Diamond Giant.
On the other side, Ghostfreak was fighting Gwendolyn.
Way Big turned and saw Diamondhead and Dr. Animo locked in an even battle.
Then he looked over at Brother Ben's side.
They were already close to collapsing.
Barbatos was fighting bravely, but it was steadily losing ground. The Evil Giant's strength and defense were simply too overwhelming.
Technology was powerful, but in the end, it still couldn't match mutation.
Barbatos's armor was riddled with holes and badly shattered. Its left eye had been pierced through, its original glow long gone.
Its hammer-spear had already been hacked to pieces. All it had left was half of an alloy katana, and it was barely holding on with that.
As for the Demon Bull Giant, its body was covered in bloody wounds, but none of them were serious. They were only flesh wounds, and it was still as fierce as ever.
Brother Ben's condition wasn't any better.
As he fought Kevin 11,000, he gradually fell behind. Transforming into Way Big earlier had already taken too much out of him.
Even if he could switch forms seamlessly, his stamina still had limits.
Seeing that, Way Big immediately rushed over to help.
"Barbatos, we can't lose here," Future Lucian said with a grin.
With a clang, he threw away the katana in his hand.
Barbatos bared its crimson Emperor claws, then shot forward on its legs like a cannonball straight at the mountain-like giant.
The Demon Bull Giant roared and tore Barbatos apart with one swipe!
The cockpit inside ejected instantly, but the Demon Bull Giant had already bared its fangs, determined to devour this annoying little pest.
A second later, Way Big caught Future Lucian, then immediately kicked the Demon Bull Giant to the ground.
"So it's you." Future Lucian froze for a moment, staring at Way Big in a daze.
Way Big set him down somewhere safe. "Take a break first. I'll handle this guy."
Future Lucian nodded. "Be careful."
At that moment, the Demon Bull Giant charged again.
Way Big smashed a left hook into its cheek, hitting it so hard it grew dizzy and spun in place.
"After all that fighting, you're about at your limit too, aren't you?" Way Big sneered, clenching his fist.
Buzz.
A mass of blue energy gathered around his fist.
Way Big leaped high into the air, then dove straight down.
With Universe Energy amplifying him, Way Big's strength climbed to its absolute peak. The air exploded all along his path, producing ring after ring of white shockwaves. Like a meteor crashing down from the heavens, he slammed into the Evil Giant.
Boom!
A thunderclap-like blast echoed through the valley.
The Demon Bull Giant's body broke apart and exploded into countless chunks of flesh, dying on the spot.
Without even turning his head, Way Big charged forward and grabbed Kevin 11,000, who was still tangled up with Brother Ben.
Then he brought one foot down.
Kevin 11,000 didn't even have time to react before he was stomped flat.
