And very obviously, neither had the Wyrm Queen.
Instead of snapping her mouth shut like any intelligent life form would do at the sight of massively spiky sea urchin shooting towards its mouth, it merely gaped at me and allowed me free access into its interior.
I am sure you could guess what happened next.
The Wyrms of the Chinese Desert were a notorious bunch, and one of the main things they were famous for was their fearsome and stupidly powerful armor.
But as with every other things in nature, powerful armor was there to protect something extra squishy.
And as I quickly found out that day, that extra squishy something was the insides of the Wyrm.
I spun my spiky sea urchin mecha exterior like a high grade shredder and did what I intended to do with utmost efficiency and effectiveness.
Shred! Shred! Shred!
SCREEEEEEEE!
The Wyrm Queen gave out an absolutely miserable wail of pain!
If she could speak out loud, she would probably be saying…
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCKKKKKK!!
Deep waves of inconsolable regret would be crashing over her heart at that moment.
"Why did I swallow that damn spiky metal ball? Whyyy?? AAARGHHHH!!!"
However, thankfully for her, the waves of regret would soon stop crashing over her heart because…
SHRED!!
"Wow that particular organ sure gave out a lot of Wyrm Juice!" I couldn't help but comment as we shredded through a particularly thick and juicy organ.
"That's her heart." Bruce Pang said with a slight wince.
I didn't blame him for wincing at that moment.
I mean, what we were going through at that moment was definitely something that no living being had ever experienced.
We had probably just killed a very ferocious Wyrm Queen! And in the most gruesome and disgusting manner!
"Ouch. That must have hurt." I muttered with a slight wince myself. "But at least it's dead now."
Within one short minute, I had shredded the insides of the Wyrm Queen into Wyrm Juice!
Bam!!
The very dead carcass of the Wyrm Queen collapsed onto the desert sand and caused a massive valley to appear.
"Well done." The Ancestor said as he nodded approvingly. "Your selection of strategy and execution were absolutely on point."
"Yes. Disgustingly on point." Bruce Pang said with a slight chuckle. He had recovered from the earlier shock of diving straight into the jaws of a Gold Grade Beast and had regained his cool air.
"Thank you elders." I beamed happily and maneuvered us deftly out of the Wyrm's mouth.
"Now let's see how you will deal with her enraged husband looking for revenge. Let me give you a heads up. You can't use the same strategy against him. Let me also give you another heads up. His nickname is… Thousand Jaws." The Ancestor said with a strange smile on his face.
Very, very worryingly, Bruce Pang did not say a single word. He merely gulped.
That gulp sent a real shiver down my spine.
"If shredding its insides won't work anymore, then let's see how it will fare against a real, full sized King of Rifles. Let this be a showdown between two Kings!" I shouted enthusiastically and quickly manifested the giant version of the sleek black rifle which I had earlier.
"Speaking of which, what happened to the block of metal I shot at jus-" I swivelled my mecha head around to look at the damage I caused, and was completely stunned.
There was absolutely nothing at the spot where the huge lump of metal was.
"What's going on? Wouldn't the explosion cause the sand to turn into glass?" I asked in confusion.
"It would. And it did." The Ancestor replied.
"So where are all the glass?" I asked.
"Are you sure you want to worry about glass right now? The Wyrm King is getting closer." The Ancestor reminded me.
I glanced at my radar and cursed.
The Wyrm King had traveled more than ten kilometers in the past minute! It was originally around fifty kilometers away - yes fifty.
As I had said before, the elevator was insanely fast.
But in the time I took to deal with the Wyrm Queen, it had reduced the distance to a mere thirty kilometers.
And with the Wyrm King's speed, that was less than three minutes away.
"Damn it, that Wyrm King is so bloody fast!" I shouted and immediately fired my thrusters to shoot up into the sky.
pαпdα`noνɐ1`сoМ Click. Whoosh.
At around a kilometer up, I placed the rifle into firing position and aimed at the Wyrm King.
Next to me, I could feel the Ancestor's intense stare at the rifle. He was evaluating its performance!
"Take a good look at this, old man. I've upgraded your rifle quite a bit." I said smugly as I pressed the trigger.
WHAM!!!!
Surprisingly, a loud explosion sounded as a bus sized bullet shot out of the massive rifle in my mecha's hands!
Almost instantly, a bright light lit up the entire night sky in the distance.
The bullet traveled at such insane speeds that there was only a brief second's delay between firing and impact!
"You upgraded the rifle? Are you freaking crazy??" The Ancestor shouted at me, looking completely aghast.
"Why? There are several inefficiencies which I noticed, I merely smoothed them out. In total I only increased its damage output by 10%." I frowned at the Ancestor's over reaction.
Wham!!!
A shockwave full of sand smashed into me mere seconds before the loudest explosion I had ever heard rang out gloriously.
BOOOOOOOM!!!
For a few seconds, the explosion was all we could hear.
I grinned stupidly at the two of them and ignored the Ancestor's angry glare.
"Did you really think that I didn't know about those inefficiencies??" The Ancestor growled at me through gritted teeth. "Those inefficiencies were there to limit the effect of the weapon's damage! Because if they weren't there, the weapon would break through the Gold Grade and hit Platinum!"
He then jabbed in the direction of the massive eruption and mushroom sized cloud that was rising up into the night sky.
