Chapter 99: Chapter 99: From Now On, I Will Stand at the Top_1 Chapter 99: Chapter 99: From Now On, I Will Stand at the Top_1 Thump…

The ground trembled slightly.

What was that noise?

Colin squinted his eyes and turned to look in the direction of the vibration. Through the pitch-black veil of the night, he could barely make out the silhouette of a massive creature looming over the town.

A faint stench of blood began to pervade the air…

“It’s here, it’s here! The Priest Lord has arrived!”

“Perfect! As long as he’s here, everything will get back on track!”

In the darkness, a group of cultists, enraged by Colin yet helpless, showed ecstatic expressions on their faces.

The arrival of the priest meant victory was within reach!

Meanwhile, as the vibration drew closer, Colin finally saw what that thing looked like—

A gigantic tumor bigger than a dump truck by a whole size.

The tumor was riddled with crimson veins, adorned with countless tendrils of flesh, and shrouded in a faintly glowing red mist.

Under it were six thick legs; barring the absence of wings and skin, it closely resembled the mythological creature “Chaos” from The Classic of Mountains and Seas.

With its emergence, the number of shadowy figures around multiplied suddenly.

“Good, finally something decent has shown up!”

Colin seemed to have finally found some enjoyment, a hint of a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

However, feeling a streak of approval wavering due to its appearance, he involuntarily furrowed his brow…

The power that had been steadily growing within him had diminished slightly.

It was only a slight reduction, but it was enough to cause him significant displeasure.

Because this meant that there were already people around who doubted whether he could deal with that monster as he had before!

“My power will not be questioned! Such an extraordinary creature has no place in this town.”

Colin waved his hand, and with absolute power, shattered the surrounding shadows…

He then stood in the middle of the road, hands behind his back, watching the enormous creature charging at him as swiftly as a dump truck, without any intention of dodging.

On the other side, Hu Xiaoyuan, who was planning to retreat, was shocked at the scene and hurriedly warned:

“Mr. Lin! Be careful of that monster! It has been blessed and is difficult to deal with!”

Colin’s figure was dwarfed by the giant creature, like a watermelon to a sesame seed.

The sheer scale of the difference made her hold her breath involuntarily.

Especially seeing that Colin didn’t seem to plan on moving aside, her concern deepened, fearing that Colin might encounter misfortune…

This “idol” was strong, but perhaps a bit too… arrogant and prideful.

“Hmph.”

Colin ignored her, his gaze fixed on the rapidly approaching behemoth, standing as immovable as a rock.

His aura erupted further, spreading swiftly like oil on water, eventually giving rise to a gale.

Such an action reaffirmed the “approval” of many onlookers.

And the behemoth, as gargantuan as a dump truck, hastened its six-legged pace, its veins bursting open to emit a mist of blood.

Colin noticed that this bloody mist, upon touching anything around it, whether organic or inorganic, caused a striking transformation.

Cars grew limbs, metal melded with flesh emitting strange growls, walls sprouted eyes and mouths, vegetation uprooted itself, charging forth alongside the monstrous globe of flesh.

The entire world was mutating, filled with unforgivable corruption and desecration.

In this moment, not only Colin but the gargantuan tumor itself seemed eager to resolve the battle in a single move rather than dragging it out.

After a brief moment of thought, Colin understood why.

Most likely, this blessed power was not meant to last.

The priest had broken free from the “Frontier Guard” and was rushing over, obviously not without some cost.

If things were dragged out, it might have collapsed and disintegrated on its own, and then everything would have settled like dust.

But…

For Colin, that was impossible.

He wouldn’t allow anything more eye-catching than himself to exist in this place!

This matter had to be resolved by his own hands!

“Especially when it dares to harbor thoughts of killing me, how arrogant is that?”

Colin’s gaze was icy as he watched the other approach swiftly, casually reaching into his pocket to pull out something.

Fifty meters.

Thirty meters.

Ten meters.

Five meters.

“The World! Halt!”

Colin stretched out his hand and pointed forward, and a flash of golden light passed, instantly freezing everything in stasis.

Meanwhile, outside the field, just when everyone was holding their breath, waiting for the moment when the two would truly meet, they suddenly found…

The scene before them had abruptly frozen.

Whether it was Colin standing in the middle of the road like a rock or the massive tumbling hunk of flesh in a mad sprint, everything had come to a standstill.

“What’s happened?!”

The crowd was stunned, wondering if there was some bug in the world before them that had caused this lag.

But before they could figure anything out, the scene in front of them started moving again.

A blood-red haze swallowed everything present, the gigantic figure stood in place, and that incessant show-off no longer knew where he was.

“No way…” Hu Xiaoyuan felt a chill in her heart and was a bit frantic.

She was unclear about what the blood-red tumor was, but the fact it had come from the “Frontier Guard” indicated a problem.

If Mr. Lin were dead, they too wouldn’t survive, as they no longer had the capability to deal with those cultists…

“Did we win?! Finally killed that guy?!”

Some cultists cried tears of joy, having had enough of the guy who could neither be beaten nor killed.

However, before their joy lasted long, a sudden wail emanated from the blood-red tumor.

Following that, with a loud thump, the tumor with six large legs collapsed to the ground.

It convulsed continuously, as if trying to stand up again, but a layer of frost quickly spread across its body.

At first, it could still tremble slightly, but eventually, even the trembling disappeared, and within less than a minute, the cold frost had frozen the mass of flesh, almost the size of a large truck.

The temperature of the surrounding environment also plummeted at this moment, making people feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, cold to the bone…

Tap, tap, tap…

Clear footsteps emanated from the hunk of flesh.

“Indeed, you possess some strength, but regrettably… challenging me is an imprudent decision.”

A figure stepped on the huge frozen mass of flesh, walking step by step upwards, and to one’s surprise, it was Colin, whom they’d thought to be dead!

“Before my arrival, you might have been equally matched, pulling at each other, with no one capable of standing at the decisive position.”

“However, it’s a pity that such a window of opportunity has already ended.”

Colin put away the Bone Spur in his hand, stretched out his hand, and swept his hair back, his eyes brimming with unabashed arrogance and pride.

With a calm tone, he announced to everyone:

“From now on, I shall stand at the apex.”
