The foul-smelling maw was full of residual flesh and blood, and the giant, covered in blood, stared intently at Javier and the others.
Although he didn't usually have a habit of eating supper, if prey willingly presented themselves, the giant wouldn't mind.
As for the Plaga Parasite Villagers who had been there moments ago, upon seeing the giant's indiscriminate, all-out attack, they didn't hesitate.
Amidst a cacophony of wails and panicked screams, they quickly fled with their torches towards another passage.
Staying there any longer would not only be unhelpful but would only result in them becoming the giant's food.
Though they were controlled by the Plaga parasite, it didn't mean they were truly stupid.
After all, even beasts know the instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, let alone them—?
Seeing the rest of the Plaga Parasite Villagers scatter, the giant naturally had no inclination to pursue them.
Instead, he focused his attention on Javier and Ada, as well as a White Wolf on the ground.
It was a type of prey he had never tasted before; it should be delicious, he eagerly anticipated!
With that, the giant extended a finger and scraped a bit of meat from between his teeth, an expression of lingering satisfaction on his face.
"…"
Ada, looking at the foul-smelling giant before her, frowned.
Meeting a beautiful lady and immediately spraying her with garlic breath was utterly devoid of manners or dignity, no different from a rustic, uncouth ruffian.
In this regard, the hypocritical Javier was even slightly better than this giant.
However, the opponent had no cerebellum, so Ada didn't need to worry.
She drew the rope gun from her thigh, aimed at the top of the valley above, and fired.
"Bang—!"
"Whoosh…!"
Her vibrant red cheongsam fluttered, her long, smooth white legs crossed, and Ada tilted her head slightly, softly whispering to Javier beside her:
"Good luck… Knight!"
Immediately, she was pulled upwards.
The distance between the two widened.
When the beautiful figure reached the top of the valley, Ada raised her crossbow, the infrared laser and scope simultaneously locking onto the giant's head.
Without hesitation, Ada pulled the trigger.
"Bang… Whoosh—!!!"
A black explosive crossbow bolt shot out rapidly, accurately hitting the giant's head.
"Boom—!"
A fireball and an explosion bloomed on the giant's head.
When the black smoke and flames dissipated, a clearly scorched and blackened wound appeared on the giant's head.
The flesh was slightly indented, and a stream of charred blood flowed down.
The intense pain made the giant, who previously had no cerebellum and a dull expression, suddenly let out a piercing roar.
Undoubtedly… he was completely enraged!
"Roar—!!!!"
To think, to think, to think he had been injured by two ant-like creatures.
This caused the giant, whose rudimentary cerebellum was incomplete, to feel immense humiliation.
Enraged, he instantly began to thrash wildly on the ground, like a black gorilla beating its chest.
At the same time, his blank, upturned eyes instantly fixed on Javier and the White Wolf on the ground.
That's right.
The rage ignited by Ada's explosive crossbow bolt, the giant had completely transferred it to Javier and the White Wolf.
After all, the giant couldn't attack Ada on top of the valley.
Since that was the case… he could only vent his frustration on Javier and the White Wolf on the ground.
Facing the giant's unfriendly gaze, and Ada's schadenfreude from the top of the valley, Javier rolled his eyes in exasperation.
This woman truly held a grudge; was it really necessary to go to such lengths just to make him suffer and look foolish?
The White Wolf beneath him bristled, staring at the giant before him, snarling in a low growl, its four legs tensed.
The pain from its injured hind leg was instantly forgotten as it watched the giant with extreme tension, ready to dodge and counterattack at any moment!
"Ow…!!!"
However, the giant paid no attention to the little one's provocation.
He twisted his enormous head, raised his massive, thick fist, as large as a door panel, and swung it forcefully towards Javier.
A strong gust of wind immediately hit his face, and the dark shadow rapidly expanded.
If he were hit, he would likely be instantly smashed into a meat paste.
"White Wolf, run!"
"Ow—!"
Seeing this, the man and the dog called out to each other.
They quickly separated, the White Wolf darting to the right, and Javier to the left.
The giant's punch landed heavily on the wooden stake gate behind him.
"Boom!"
Instantly, with a loud bang, the entire massive wooden stake gate was blasted apart and shattered.
The wooden stakes broke in the middle, splinters flying, and the fragmented stakes were embedded in the valley tunnel, completely blocking Javier and the others' escape route.
His first attack failed, but the giant was not discouraged.
Instead, he continued to stare intently at Javier, letting out an angry roar, and adopted a charging stance.
After stamping his huge foot on the ground, he rushed forward headlong.
His speed was incredibly fast, and of course, the commotion he created was also extraordinarily loud.
The ground of the valley almost shook and trembled, subtly resembling an earthquake.
But… even so, it was still very difficult for his attacks to hit Javier.
Under the enhancement of the passive skill Breathing Technique, his blood boiled, his skin turned red, and his body temperature rapidly increased.
Javier once again displayed the speed of a sprinter like Usain Bolt.
He retreated with a scramble, quickly dodging the giant's charge, and the giant's massive body slammed heavily into the valley wall.
With a tremor, countless Gravel rolling down, and the entire valley rock wall almost collapsed.
"Roar…"
The giant, rubbing his aching head, began to sway slightly.
It seemed the force of the rebound from hitting the valley wall so hard did not feel good.
At least this big fellow felt an unusual pain, and he continued to emit low whimpers and snarls from his mouth, as if wondering why he couldn't catch the two annoying flies on the ground.
While the giant was caught in a skill cooldown, Javier and Ada quickly launched their attacks.
Explosive crossbow bolts were continuously fired, all hitting the giant's head, especially the eyes.
Although the giant's body was thick-skinned, the eyeballs were always an undefensible spot.
Ada almost exclusively aimed the explosive crossbow bolts at this location.
"Bang—Bang—Bang—!!!!"
"Boom boom boom boom—!!!!"
Fireballs continuously exploded.
In a short while, the giant's head was blasted beyond recognition.
His already bald head was now deeply cratered, like the surface of a meteorite, covered in pits and pockmarks.
Everywhere were scorched marks from the explosive flames, and blood flowed down, then quickly scabbed over due to the high temperature, a repetitive cycle.
Several of his yellowed, foul-smsmelling teeth were also broken, and the vengeful Ada even stuffed a good number of explosive crossbow bolts into his mouth.
Half of his cheek was blown through with a hole, the signs of disfigurement very obvious, to avenge the giant's previous garlic breath on her.
Of course, the most miserable aspect was his blank, upturned eyes.
They already had a somewhat unintelligent, wide-eyed look, like a big simpleton.
But at this moment, his two eyeballs couldn't open at all, because they had been roasted and fused shut by the explosive crossbow bolts and flames.
His eyelids were tightly stuck together, and he couldn't open them no matter how hard he tried, unable to see.
The enraged giant could only frantically tear at his face with his rough hands.
But such actions could not restore light to his eyes.
Instead, they only left his entire face bloody and blurred from scratching.
The exasperated giant could only blindly flail his hands around.
Javier, meanwhile, was not idle.
While the White Wolf roared to attract the giant's attention and make him flail around, Javier pulled out two high-powered Desert Eagle pistols.
These two large-caliber pistols were enough to break through defenses; after all, a.50 caliber could even kill an elephant, and the giant's skin was at most as rough as an elephant's.
Javier's aim was not the giant's head or body, but his legs—more precisely, his knees and ankles.
These two areas are the connecting points for leg movement, and once injured, they can easily affect movement speed.
Javier never intended to directly kill the giant with the Desert Eagle pistols, but rather to smash his knees and ankles.
That way, even if the giant truly entered a berserk state, it would be a kind of impotent rage, completely unable to achieve effective attacks.
"Bang bang bang bang bang—!!!!"
Continuous gunshots rang out.
One magazine was expended and immediately reloaded.
In a short while, the giant's knees were already covered in dense bullet holes.
The intense pain made him involuntarily fall to one knee, directly losing his ability to move.
"Thud…"
A muffled thud, and a heavy thumping sound came from the ground.
The giant knelt on the ground, gasping for air, his huge hands flailing wildly.
His face was covered in blood, his mouth seemed to be smashed, and he had only a few teeth left.
His expression was exceptionally distorted and hideous, like a bullied child crying on the ground, constantly wiping his snot with his chubby little hands, but the effect was that it only got dirtier, looking quite pitiful.
But… also because his anger could not be vented, the giant's rage was rapidly escalating by several times.
"Splat…!"
Soon, the giant's back began to rapidly undulate.
His sturdy, rough skin suddenly burst open, and foul-smelling blood and mucus splattered.
A Plaga parasite suddenly emerged, like a yellow ginseng root, with dense rootlets anchored in the giant's back.
At this moment, because the giant's eyes were no longer usable, the desperate Plaga parasite had to burst out from within the giant's body to reveal its true form, because it needed to replace the giant as the new eyes.
However, the cost of this was also obvious.
The core was exposed outside the shield, making it easy for enemies to kill it.
But staying still would also lead to being killed, so the Plaga parasite, having no other choice, could only choose to burst out of the body.
"Roar roar roar…!!!"
And with the Plaga parasite bursting forth, the giant, having regained new vision, also let out a hysterical roar.
His previously shattered knees, at this moment, fearlessly braced themselves and stood up again.
He immediately fixated on Ada on top of the valley.
It was this woman who had constantly harassed him like a fly, and had even used those explosive weapons to ruin his face.
In uncontrollable rage, the giant directly grabbed the gravel on the ground and clutched them in his hand, then violently threw them with force towards Ada.
Since he couldn't climb to the top of the valley, he would attack with gravel.
The Exploding Bug giant's intelligence had also improved slightly at this moment.
Seeing this, Ada's expression changed, and she quickly ducked to the ground to take cover.
Don't be fooled by how small those gravel appeared in the giant's palm; in reality, they were as large as a football, or even larger.
Such massive gravel, coupled with high acceleration, would not only penetrate a head if hit, but even a body would be instantly pierced.
Even a graze would result in a broken bone.
