Hellmode ~Gamer Who Likes to Speedrun Becomes Peerless in a Parallel World with Obsolete Setting~ Vol. 11 - Chapter 678 - Fight with Beast God Garm (3)

Shea's body transford as she bit down and chewed on Beast God Garm's tail.

*Crack!*

'Grrr!!'

Her already large form, standing at 3 ters as a giant tiger, rapidly grew to about 10 ters in length. Yet, as Shea stared at Garm, she began to shrink her body, controlling her muscles, until she was back to her original height of 160 centiters.

The skin that had peeled off her face, the ruptured eyeball, and the broken fangs all healed swiftly with her body's transformation. Her entire body was now covered in black and yellow tiger-striped fur, reminiscent of a primitive being. Her orichalcum weapon and the Divine Artifact white boots she wore shone even brighter.

'Oh? So it's The Beast / Type Human. You really want to land that combo on , huh?'

Despite having his tail severed, Garm grinned, understanding that Shea needed to land a combo to complete the trial.

Covered in fur, Shea grabbed the severed tail, treating it like a prized trophy, and stored it carefully in her magic bag. She then opened her mouth and issued commands to Luvanka and Zew.

'I've got the tail. Now, let's land that combo!'

Spiritual Power overflowed from Shea's entire body.

'Uhm!? Ooooooh!?'

'What the hell is this?! Power!? Oooooooh!!'

With Shea's command, the Spiritual Power and Mana she emitted caused the nine Ten Heroic Beasts to enter Full Beast Mode. Lud, who had responded, was bewildered. Lepe scread in surprise, having already gained power from Full Beast Mode and then receiving more from Shea.

'Yeah!!'

Only Zew, who had absolute trust in his sister Shea, responded without hesitation.

With Shea's command, Zew narrowed his eyes like a predator targeting its prey, locking onto Garm. Garm had claid he would fight using only his tail, without using his hands or feet.

Currently, that tail was severed, leaving him unable to retaliate.

'Wha!? W-wait!! Using too much divine power hurts my waist! Nnnngh!!'

Garm bent his knees, adopting a hunched posture as his tail began to regrow from his waist. His previously 120-centiter fra, lacking muscle and covered in dull, wiry fur, began to change.

The bones and skin of his frail body rapidly expanded with bulging muscles. His skeletal fra stretched and grew, surpassing Hobah's size, and continued to grow to five ters, then ten ters. A large, muscular tail grew from his back, thicker than Hobah's torso.

He was transforming into a giant ape.

'Attack! If he finishes transforming, we're done!!'

Zew shouted, knowing they couldn't wait for Garm to finish transforming.

'Uoooooohhh!!'

It was Zew who had ordered the attack. During the trials in the S-class dungeon, he had focused on protecting the surrounding beastn rather than completing the trials. Despite his past burdens and competing with Shea for the Beast King's throne, Zew chose his ans and thods carefully. However, now, he was shouting to attack Garm before he could unleash his full power.

Even the nine Ten Heroic Beasts, inspired by Zew's determination, bared their fangs and charged at Garm.

'We must defeat him! Hah! (1) True Full-Body!!'

In his temporarily enhanced Extra Mode, Hobah leaped and swung his hamr.

[Differences in Beastn Enhancent by Beast Mode Type]

-Beast Mode increases the star level of surrounding beastn by one within a 100-ter radius, increasing their beast-like appearance by one level.-Full Beast Mode enhances the stats of surrounding beastn within a one-kiloter radius to Extra Mode, making them appear as in Beast Mode.-The Beast enhances the skills and stats of surrounding beastn within a 100-kiloter radius to Extra Mode, making them appear as in Full Beast Mode.

'Waaaait!! This kind of underhanded tactic can't be allowed! I'm the God of beastn!!!'

The front-line Ten Heroic Beasts attacked in unison. Using their Skills twice, they reached a 10-hit combo, and Shea and Zew's fists began to glow.

'Good, it's working! (11) Tiger God Soft Destruction Palm!!'

*Crash!*

Zew's palm strike landed, triggering the Divine Technique's effect once more, reducing Garm's Endurance with the sound of shattering glass.

'(12) Ruthless Leopard God Attack!!'

'Ugh!?'

This ti, Shea managed to land her combo after Zew. Enhanced by the Skill [Inexhaustible Beast King]'s damage increase, she drove her fist deep into Garm's abdon. Garm, now nearly 30 ters tall, had his durability reduced by the two uses of [Tiger God Soft Destruction Palm], and Shea's blow brought tears to his eyes.

'Good! Everyone, one more push!!'

Zew turned and encouraged Hobah and the others.

'Don't get cocky, beastn!!'

Garm, now a towering figure with four long, sharp canine teeth, raised his tail and swung it down at Zew. The attack, from a tail now 20 ters long and 2 ters thick, was a serious threat.

'Zew!!'

Shea cried out, but soone had already moved.

The massive, nacing tail swung toward Zew. If Zew were struck down, the trial requiring Shea and Zew to use all their divine techniques would fail.

But Luvanka, now a wind avatar, swiftly moved between Zew and Garm.

'Guh!? Complete Defense!!'

This ti, Garm's transford tail broke through Luvanka's physical attack nullification.

The tail slashed through Luvanka's body from shoulder to hip, leaving only his right arm connected to his neck, but his fighting spirit remained. He activated the Special Skill [Complete Defense].

'Persistent bug!!'

Though Luvanka lost half his body, his three right arms clung to Garm's tail, and [Complete Defense] immobilized it.

'What are you waiting for! Another round! Don't give up until the last strike!!'

With Garm's attack having landed, the combo count reset to zero. However, with Garm's attack thod neutralized, continuing the combo was feasible.

Clinging to the tail deprived Garm of his ans of attack.

Luvanka's eyes, filled with despair after losing his family to monsters, regained their intensity.

He clung desperately to Garm's tail, which tried to shake him off. Despite being slamd into the stone floor, he refused to let go.

However, Luvanka's body was reaching its limit.

*Paah*

Light bubbles began forming from his body. He had taken so much damage that even the ultra-healing effect couldn't keep up. With only seconds left, Luvanka continued to activate [Complete Defense] on Garm's tail, sacrificing his life to provide the chance to complete the trial.

Knowing they had been given this opportunity at the cost of Luvanka's life, hope shone in everyone's eyes.

'The Skill's wearing off! Hurry, everyone!!'

The Awakened Skill [Storm Beast Mode] would end once Luvanka disappeared, and the critical chance buff would vanish. If attacks were blocked or missed, the combo would end.

'I'll go first! (1) True Sure-Hit Arrow!!'

The first attack landed was an arrow from Bow Beast Emperor Paz. The arrow aid at Garm's forehead, ensuring a hit.

'(2) True Slash!! Everyone, use fast-activating skills! Hobah and Lazo, get around!!'

Sword Beast Emperor Hachi shouted to use quick slashes. Luvanka's light-filled form was nearly gone.

'(3) True Twin Strike!!'

'(4) True Multi-Hit!!'

Twin Beast Emperor Pazu and Twin Sword Beast Emperor Senu closed the distance, using short-activation multi-hit skills.

Pazu and Senu, specializing in speed and multiple attacks, used one skill slot and their [Vital Strike (6)] skill to boost Agility by 6000 and critical chance by 60%.

However, Halberd Beast Emperor Lazo and Hamr Beast Emperor Hobah, with large, wide-range weapons, had slower attacks, making them harder to land.

'(5) True Piercing Fang!!'

'(6) True Full Body!!'

Pazu and Senu connected their attacks while Lazo, with his halberd, thrust at Garm's throat. Hobah finally swung his hamr, timing his attack to the combo.

'Gen, Pazu, Senu, Hachi!! Attack now!!'

Zew shouted to the fastest attackers and Hachi, who was already in position.

'(7) True Sure-Hit Arrow!!'

'(8) True Slash!!'

'(9) True Twin Strike!!'

'(10) True Multi-Hit!!'

'... Alright, now it's our turn! (1) Tiger God Soft Destruction Palm!!'

*Crash!*

'(12) Ruthless Leopard God Attack!!'

Receiving the third durability-reducing Divine Technique [Tiger God Soft Destruction Palm], Garm was hit again by Shea's Divine Technique [Ruthless Leopard God Attack].

'Ugh!? You... don't get cocky, beastn!!'

'I leave the rest to you...'

*Paah*

Luvanka reached his limit. Turning into light particles, he completely disappeared, releasing Garm's tail. With a roar, Garm turned to attack Shea and the others.

However, Shea's mind was quick.

'(13) Divine Wind Consecutive Hits!!'

She activated another Divine Technique, aiming for multiple hits.

'Gyaa!? My eyes!?'

'I've blinded Garm! Now he can't dodge! Keep attacking!!'

Wind blades split and attacked Garm's eyes, reducing the chance of him evading or blocking. Shea used [Divine Wind Consecutive Hits] to blind him.

'Everyone! Luvanka's Skill is gone! Ensure the combo continues!!'

Shea's Divine Technique spurred Zew to shout, rallying the Ten Heroic Beasts.

Without Luvanka, they felt the loss of critical chance increase.

The grueling trial against Garm continued.
