Chapter 109: Shattered Crystals!

Liz dodged the Giganto Zilla’s advance before shouting,

“You saw me use the other one, right?!”

The Paru tightened his grip over the weapon he had been tossed.

‘Some kind of mechanical hammer? It’s larger than a normal one. The grip and handle aren’t much thinner than the head. Could pass as a club…’

Additionally, the design was rough and looked like it had been rushed rather obviously.

‘If it’s the same as that machete…’

Indeed, next to where his thumb lay on the weapon, the Paru found a small button.

And just like for the machete, holes lay on the weapon’s back.

‘It’s on the head of the hammer here. So clicking will release that steam… Thing? It’ll add some weight and kinetic energy to my hits but… Can it really-‘

“FOCUS ON KEEPING IT IN YOUR HANDS!!” Liz shouted as she dodged again.

‘Mm…’ The Paru wiped his mouth with the back of his hand. ‘That heavy, huh?’ He swung the weapon twice, surprised by how light it was. ‘If she’s talking about it this way, then I just have to try it out!’

Liz swiftly plunged over a crystalline structure, reaching for the bag of weapons that lay behind it.

Moving freely while carrying them would be impossible, so she had strategically placed them around the area before joining the main fight.

Lacking the time to choose, Liz let her hand pull out the first weapon it grabbed, which ended up being a shotgun.

‘Tsk.’ She clicked her tongue because a lower-range weapon was definitely not the best choice right now.

The Giganto Zilla’s claws approached her, and she ducked while shooting at its hand.

It growled. But before it could move closer,

‘Let’s try to get this one then!’

The Paru was standing right behind the Giganto Zilla with both of his arms raised high, weapon in hand.

Aiming for the crystal at the tip of the Giganto Zilla’s tail, he started swinging the weapon down and clicked on the-

Crack!

‘Holy… Shit!’ The Paru cursed as the weapon hit the ground, flying out of his hands! ‘On shit… Was enough to crack it close to breaking!’

That was even more surprising than the fact that his grip strength had barely been enough to keep it in his hands.

‘I guess she wasn’t exaggerating when she said that I should focus on keeping it in my hands!’

The Paru quickly lowered his body and took back hold of the weapon, while the Giganto Zilla growled, turning in his direction.

Liz has taken the opportunity to close the little distance that separated her from the Giganto Zilla.

Its eye widened, noticing that the end of the barrel was one inch away.

BANG!

‘Anyone else using that wouldn’t have even been able to direct where it hits! The amount of strength necessary to direct it is immense, let alone wield it properly! The material is as tough as it gets, and tiny but powerful explosions within take place, and the energy is let out from the back, allowing for kinetic energy in the opposite direction!’ Liz grinned as she ran away, followed by the Giganto Zilla who was, now, lacking an eye! ‘We can do this! We can win this!’ She could feel her heart beat faster and faster, as well as a sense of euphoria rising. ‘We can kill this son of a bitch!’

The Paru’s lips curled upwards, eager to play with the toy he had just obtained some more.

For the next minute, the Giganto Zilla would tirelessly run after Liz, while the Paru had climbed over its body.

Clicking on the button for only a moment was enough for it to move by itself.

Just direct it in the right direction, and make sure it doesn’t fly away!

The Paru did just that, and one by one,

Crack- Crack- Shatter- Shatter- Shatter-

The crystals on the Giganto Zilla’s back and nape were destroyed!

Two minutes passed and,

“I…” Liz barely managed to move out of the way, the Giganto Zilla’s jaws closing inches away from her arm! “Need some help here!!”

Just as she said so,

Click-

ROAAAAA-

“Ha… Hahahaha!” The Paru laughed out loud as he was launched off the Giganto Zilla’s body, having just destroyed its second eye. “This is too good! Too fucking good!”

“What… What do we do now?” An out of breath Liz asked. “That… Didn’t seem… Very useful. Well… Except for the eye…”

“It was.” The Paru grinned. “We’ve already won-”

Despite having lost both of its eyes, the Giganto Zilla immediately turned in their direction!

“What… Was that?!”

The huge Visero ran directly at them, and both ran away!

Now blind, the Giganto Zilla seemed to have gained the ability to detect them better using charges in the air!

“Hahaha!”

“Why… Why the hell are you laughing?!”

“Well, this is fun, isn’t it?”

“There’s nothing… Fun about this!” Liz shouted despite having trouble controlling her breathing. “We’re being chased by a fucking Giganto Zilla! That thing killed… So many!!”

Suddenly, all three felt a tingling sensation.

Liz felt her heart drop as memories from her earlier expedition on Serolia arose.

The Giganto Zilla opened its mouth and growled, as if bragging. It raised its tail upwards to use it as a lightning rod.

The Paru grinned widely.

He suddenly moved towards the right, taking Liz into his arms, and jumping beyond a crystalline structure!

Liz froze from the surprise, and blushed from the embarrassment. She had her back against the ground, and he was lying on top of her. Liz was a Soldier and a female. Having a male protect her using his body was shameful to her. It was… Her job to do that.

Lightning struck.

The Giganto Zilla had, as planned, used the tip of its tail to attract lightning.

Except that this time,

GRRRWAAAA!!

The crystals that had the ability to Devour that lightning… Had all been shattered, and shaved off its body.
