Chapter 58: Earth, Fire, Wind, Water

After hearing Noah’s voice, Xin quickly aimed her gun at the stone wall.

While dodging the slimes that Gexiusi was throwing, she looked for an opportunity to shoot.

Finally, the sniper rifle opened a crack in the stone wall.

Hope was right in front of them!

Xin aimed at the stone wall and pulled the trigger again.

The click of the trigger sounded, but not a single bullet could be fired.

Xin rolled to dodge the slime that Gexiusi threw at her, looked up, and shouted at Ska,

“Man! Do you have any bullets left?”

“Cough, cough…!”

Ska clutched his chest and coughed painfully.

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and reached a trembling hand into his pocket.

“Hold on! Let me find some for you!”

Before Ska could find usable bullets, a huge slime crashed down on him like a meteor.

Half of Ska’s body couldn’t move at all, so he couldn’t roll and dodge.

The slime slammed into Ska and smashed him against the wall.

“Pwaaaaaaah——!”

“Gexiusi! You’ll die a horrible death!”

Xin carried the sniper rifle on her shoulder and gripped her katana with the other hand.

She quickly ran to Ska’s side and slashed fiercely at the rock slime.

“Get lost! All of you, get lost!”

Xin threw the sniper rifle aside and gripped the katana with both hands, hacking at the slimes.

Xin even felt like she had pulled Ska out from between the rocks.

She flipped Ska over her shoulder and fled the meteor crater with light steps.

Xin laid Ska on the ground and patted his face.

“Buddy! Buddy! Are you still alive? Hey!”

Ska was barely breathing, clearly unconscious.

Without his Flame Divine Power, bullets couldn’t be made.

Noah, while using the Sun Card to fire beams at Gexiusi, said to Xin,

“Put metal objects in his hands! Even if he’s unconscious, he can still melt metal!”

Xin quickly did as told, but what was forged were various gun parts, not a single bullet.

Xin shook Ska’s shoulders and shouted in frustration,

“Buddy! I need bullets! What am I supposed to do with this pile of scrap metal?!”

It seems that when a divine power user is unconscious, they cannot control what they create.

Noah directed the members to attack the slimes on the ground to prevent them from merging with Gexiusi.

She reached out and drew a card from her tarot deck.

A woman in a blue robe appeared on the card.

Noah flipped the card and raised her hand, shouting,

“Number 2, [Priestess]!”

Do you know that three people make a crowd?

After drawing the Priestess card, Noah didn’t stop.

She also drew [The Magician] and [Strength] from the deck.

The power of the three cards gradually merged, and a huge surge of magic swirled around Noah.

Noah raised her hand toward the stone wall and recited loudly,

“Holy Magic: Battering Ram!”

The magic beam slammed into the stone wall, digging a large hole in the seemingly indestructible wall.

But the wall was thicker than everyone imagined; even the combined power of the three cards couldn’t break through.

“Dear! Watch out!”

Black tentacles coiled around Noah’s waist and yanked her toward Naya.

A huge slime slammed into the exact spot where she had been standing, scattering broken rocks everywhere.

Noah didn’t even have time to wipe the cold sweat from her forehead.

She gathered her Star Divine Power and prepared to continue attacking the stone wall.

Shabu finally crawled out of the pile of rocks.

She shook her head and started crawling toward Gexiusi again.

Seeing Shabu’s action, Naya was startled and immediately shouted at her,

“Shabu! Come back! Don’t get near him!”

Before he could finish speaking, Gexiusi suddenly roared.

Scorching lava flowed from all over its body, and its immense divine power filled the entire Zone D with flames.

The rock armor on Gexiusi gradually melted, revealing a monster that seemed to be made of magma.

“Wait! It’s not going to self-destruct, is it?!”

Xin shouted in terror.

It turned out Xin was overthinking; Gexiusi had no intention of self-destructing.

It swung its arms and hurled countless fireballs at the fleeing crowd.

The flames grew fiercer and gradually spread across the entire Zone D.

The next moment, a wind driven by divine power swept in, merging all the flames together.

A huge fire tornado formed in the arena, surrounding everyone.

Shabu, who was closest to Gexiusi, even had her tentacles scorched.

The scorching fire tornado pressed down on everyone, making it impossible to raise their heads.

The wind howled with flames in their ears, and the shrinking eye of the tornado left them with no escape.

Noah felt the dwindling Star Divine Power within her and gritted her teeth.

She took three tarot cards in her hand and quickly recited a spell, preparing for a final struggle.

“[Temperance], [Priestess], [The Moon]!”

“The night has grown deep; grant all beings peaceful sleep!

Star Veil!”

The divine power of the stars descended, and the raging fire tornado gradually calmed.

Under the power of [Temperance], Gexiusi’s lava body slowly returned to its sickly green form.

The penalty of overload manifested.

Noah felt dizzy and nearly fell to the ground.

Naya quickly supported his wife.

As he backed away, he shouted commands for everyone to get away from Gexiusi.

“Run! Keep your distance! Gexiusi has changed forms again!”

The power of Temperance was nowhere near enough to defeat this monster.

When Gexiusi realized its lava body had reverted, it roared in fury.

It activated the power of water, turning its entire body into a cerulean water being.

As it splashed corrosive liquid, it hissed and stared at Shabu in front of it.

“It’s flesh… flesh…!”

Having lost its own flesh, Gexiusi felt an intense desire for Shabu’s form.

It opened its body like a giant maw and swallowed Shabu whole.

“Earth Mother Goddess…! Grant me new life!”

After seeing this, Naya stood frozen in place.

After several seconds of shock, he muttered in a trembling voice,

“It’s over… This is really over…”

“You bet it’s over!”

Xin’s katana was completely useless against this liquid monster.

She looked up and watched as Shabu was entirely encased in slime.

Frowning deeply, she said,

“It’s going to eat us next! What do we do now?!”

“No, you misunderstood me.”

Naya supported his wife while directing everyone to retreat, and then pointed at Gexiusi.

“I mean, it’s over for it. Gexiusi is about to die…”
