Chapter 57 You guys are the heroes!
Daga leaped off the cliff and landed next to Kaul, staring at the ball of light that was undergoing a bizarre reorganization.
"Karl, are you sure this won't create a mindless monster? Dark genes intertwine with light; if it gets out of control, the Guard won't let it live."
"Don't worry, Brother Daga, with me here, even if it goes out of control, it will only want to eat a couple more pieces of volcanic rock."
Kaul was very confident.
About ten seconds later, the blinding light gradually dissipated, and a brand new, enormous object crashed onto the ground, causing the surrounding lava pools to splash up several meters high.
Little Rock, or rather, it has evolved!
It was sixty meters tall, and its originally bulky body was now covered with a layer of armor unique to the Merbats.
The horn on its head became even sharper, and most strikingly, a pair of enormous wings, hundreds of meters wide and radiating a metallic luster, sprouted from its back!
"roar--!!"
Xiao Yan let out a high-pitched scream that was completely different from before. The voice had both the deep sound of Golza and the sharp sound of Melba.
"Oh my god...it has grown wings!"
Darram stared wide-eyed, his face filled with disbelief.
He nudged Daya's arm beside him: "Daya, look! This clumsy stone monster actually has wings! It looks much more scientific than your sweet potato-like muscles."
Daya slapped Darram's hand away, equally shocked: "This...this is simply a miracle of life's creation."
Kaul raised his chin smugly.
"Xiao Yan! Give those two big brothers a run! Let them know what a real 'flying tractor' is!"
Little Rock (Gorba) heard its master's command and excitedly shook its big head.
It spread its huge wings and flapped them frantically in place.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh—"
A terrifying wind pressure swept across the entire southern volcanic region in an instant, sending volcanic ash and scattered rocks flying everywhere. Xiao Yan's massive body, propelled by its wings, swayed and actually rose about ten meters off the ground.
Kaul stood with his hands on his hips, ready to burst into triumphant laughter.
However, the next second.
Tragedy, once again, unfolded in a way perfectly in line with "Golza's intelligence."
Because Xiaoyan's brain capacity and center of gravity control system were completely unable to keep up with the sudden appearance of the Melba wings. When it flew to a height of ten meters, its left wing flapped too hard, while its right wing accidentally got stuck in a crevice in a volcanic rock wall.
"Holy crap! Xiao Yan! Watch your balance! To the right! Smash to the right!" Kaur's expression changed, and he frantically shouted through the link.
"roar??"
Little Rock let out a completely bewildered cry. Startled, its wings began to flap wildly in the air. The entire beast resembled a fat rooster that had lost its balance in a storm and was frantically flapping its wings, spinning three perfect circles in mid-air before—
"boom--!!"
A loud bang was heard.
The Gorba rock, weighing tens of thousands of tons, slid down the hillside with an extremely perfect and standard face-first landing posture, finally making a "plop" sound.
Its entire head was buried deep in the huge black mud swamp at the foot of the mountain, and its two short legs were kicking helplessly and frantically in mid-air.
With his face covered in mud, Xiao Yan even let out a muffled "Roar—(Help)".
The valley was deathly silent.
Daga covered his forehead, his shoulders trembling violently, and let out the loudest, most merciless laugh of the day:
"Hahahaha! Kaul! This is your 'Sky King'? It flew really high! A full ten meters, and then it used its head as a lightning rod to bury itself in the mud! Gedi, go, pull it out, don't let it drown in the mud, otherwise we won't have any manpower to plow the fields!"
"Woof woof!"
Gedi covered his mouth with his paw and made an extremely cheerful, mocking sound.
Kaul's face darkened, and he plopped down on the ground with a painful sigh.
"I knew it... I shouldn't have had any expectations of your intelligence, Xiaoyan! Do you even deserve the noble aerial genes of Melba?! You could have at least floated in the air for two seconds before crashing!!"
Tiga, standing to the side, couldn't help but chuckle. He patted Kohl's shoulder and tried his best to soothe him in the gentlest tone, "Mr. Kohl... actually, a sense of direction can be trained gradually. At least, it now has the potential to fly, which is a very good start."
"Tiga, you don't need to comfort me." Kaul's eyes were lifeless. "My biggest wish right now is to install an automatic navigation system on it."
...
About half an hour later, with the sheer physical strength of the two giants, Darram and Daya, Little Rock's big head covered in black mud was finally pulled out.
Although its first flight was a complete failure, Xiao Yan was good-natured. After being pulled out, it obediently wiped the mud off its face with its wings and ran happily to the ruins of Daga's Little Garden to continue plowing the land with its newly grown horn-covered head.
Meanwhile, the main road in the southern volcanic area had been completely cleared away by the fateful showdown between Darram and Daya, two "single-celled muscle giants," for the sake of face.
They smashed the more than 10,000 tons of basalt boulder into a pile of even small pebbles, which not only opened up the road, but also saved the ancient road administration department the need for stones to build the road.
"Phew...that felt good!"
Darram, now back to his life-size human form, wiped the sweat from his brow. Though exhausted, he was in high spirits. Pointing at Daya, who was slumped on a rock beside him, panting heavily, he sneered:
"Daya, did you see that? I moved a total of 152 stones today! You only moved 148! I'm the real number one in strength! With your arm strength, go home and practice how to hold a baby!"
Daya was so angry she gritted her teeth, but she was too weak to argue back, so she could only unleash her fury with her eyes.
"Very good, the work has been done exceptionally well."
Caul walked between the two men and very naturally handed them a pitcher of cold water:
"Both of you are heroes of the garrison. Commander Yu Lian could have seen your hard work clearly from the headquarters building today. Darram, the chest muscles you showed today, reflected in the volcano, were simply perfect! Daya, your lower body stability is something even Xiao Yan over there would be ashamed of!"
"Hmph, of course!" Darram raised his chin, thoroughly enjoying Caul's praise, completely unaware that he was being used as a free laborer.
"Let's go back to headquarters. Today, we're going back to inspect another great achievement."
Kaur's lips curled up in a smile.
Because he calculated the time, Camilla's first "Carrying the Wooden God's Heart Bento" should have been completed by now, ready to cause a huge emotional upheaval in the garrison building.
