"Understood, Grandpa."
Ethan reached out a tentacle with an apologetic look, helping Max up while also handing him some proper weapons.
Then he slowly floated over to Ben's side.
Ben understood without needing to be told and held out his wrist, turned on the small watch screen, and selected an alien. "Bookworm, hero time. Go hide over by Grandpa!"
"Blockhead, Ethan... be careful!"
The usually sharp-tongued Gwen left behind words of concern, then hid herself in Max's arms.
"Um..."
Ben, now transformed into Four Arms, lowered his head with a helpless look. "Why is that Bookworm worrying about us!"
"Ha ha, Ben, this time you are the one in the wrong."
Ethan smiled, slowly spreading out his blood-red tentacles. "Let us go!"
Bang bang!
The two stepped out of Aunt Vera's house one after another and came out onto the lawn outside.
The lawn was packed with slime aliens standing all across it. Their expressions were ferocious, and their hands had condensed into all kinds of weapons.
"You cannot escape!!"
"Two fists cannot beat four hands. Even if you two are stronger than weak earthlings, you cannot beat all of us!"
"Just wait for death."
They closed in step by step, their expressions cold.
"Run? Who said anything about running!!"
Ben strode forward and slammed all four arms hard together!
Boom!!
The enormous force formed a gale wind, sending every slime alien on the lawn flying and knocking them to the ground!
"My turn!"
Ethan's skull face carried a bloodthirsty killing intent as he flew up above the group of slime aliens!
Right as they were about to get back up.
Bang bang bang!!
Ethan spread his body wide. The blood-red tentacles inside him stretched out taut like long spears, pinning every single slime alien clean through and into the ground!
The sight of it looked just like he had unleashed an ultimate move!
"Ethan, we both developed new techniques!" Ben said with a cheerful grin, completely relaxed.
These freaks were pathetic.
Completely crushed by the two of them!
"What are you two so pleased about?"
One of the slime aliens, its body crawling out like mud, quickly reformed back to its original shape. "We are immortal!"
"Ha ha, go ahead and try killing us!"
The other slime aliens were also gradually reforming!
Although Ethan could keep holding them down, he could not finish them off completely!
Ben was baffled. "Immortal bodies? That is like a cheat code in a game!"
"Ben, Ethan." Max's voice suddenly rang out in a loud warning. "These aliens' bodies are made of a special energy. You either exhaust their energy completely, or use water to finish them off!"
"This old man actually knows our weakness?"
"So what if he knows. Can he find water!"
The slime aliens were both startled and furious, their bodies starting to struggle wildly!
"Got it!!"
Ethan's mouth curved into a grin. He pulled all his tentacles back at once, then concentrated them to yank up one of the slime aliens!
He dragged that slime alien up onto the rooftop.
"Come on then. Even if you smash me apart, I will just reform, only a little slower."
That slime alien was extremely arrogant and kept taunting him.
"Ha ha, let us take down this Taedenite!"
"Kill him!!"
The other slime aliens quickly got up and hurled themselves at Ben.
The situation seemed to have tipped entirely to one side.
Click!!
Ethan simply tore the slime alien apart, then reached out and twisted the Error Watch symbol on his body.
When it landed on a certain figure, he stopped.
A flash of bloody carnage passed over the rooftop in an instant!!
Everyone turned at once, drawn by the light, and looked toward the rooftop.
On the rooftop, a short alien had appeared.
He was at most one meter tall, his build slightly round, like an upright toad.
All in all, he looked very weak...
The protagonist's transformation, with three mouths all the same size.
"Ha ha! So this is your trump card!"
The slime alien that had been torn apart let out a raspy, garbled voice!
The other slime aliens all started laughing too.
Ben covered his face with his hand. "This, this looks incredibly weak..."
"You."
Ethan slowly raised his head. Three round hole-shaped mouths were lined up across his face, drooling. "You smell so good!!"
"Wh, what?"
That slime alien suddenly felt a deep fear rising from within.
This kind of fear.
Was the fear of prey facing a predator!!
Bang!!
Ethan lowered his head, and his mouths pulled with an overwhelming suction force, drawing the alien in like slurping noodles!
His belly grew a size rounder, shifted slightly a few times, and then went still!!
"He... ate it..."
"He ate it!!"
"What the heck!!"
At that moment.
Every single slime alien went completely silent, staring at Ethan with the grief-stricken terror of someone at a funeral!
"Hm? Would you all like a taste too?"
Ethan slowly turned around with a slight smile.
Bang!!
His three wide mouths unleashed three different streams of murky yellow energy blasts, directly shattering the bodies of three slime aliens!
The remaining slime aliens saw this and immediately bolted!
"Do not run!"
Ethan leaped down from the building and hit the ground!
He opened his mouths, sucking in the scattered remains of the slime aliens and converting them into his own energy to fire back out!
Bang bang bang!
Blast after blast of energy shots directly scattered even more slime aliens!!
Ethan raised his feet and chased down the scattered slime aliens, then fired energy shots at the ones even farther away...
Some slime aliens had run very far. It did not matter.
Ethan had extensive firearm aiming ability, which made his shots very accurate. No matter how far, he could still hit!
And so...
An entire street of slime aliens was slaughtered by Ethan alone in a wild rampage!!
Immortal bodies?
He ate immortal bodies for breakfast!
"This, this is so strong... what kind of frog name should he get? Demon, Fear? Neither of those really fits." Ben watched with trembling fear, his voice shaking.
"Call him Taotie Frog. Taotie is a ferocious beast from mythology, said to be able to devour heaven and earth! It suits Ethan perfectly."
Max slowly walked out and used his wealth of knowledge to take care of the naming!
The look he gave Ethan was filled with deep shock.
Ethan could actually master the counter-relationships between all kinds of aliens!
That was high-level thinking!
"Grandpa, you are pretty amazing too."
Gwen sat inside the house and quietly watched the slime aliens Max had beaten apart.
In this whole family, she was the only ordinary person.
Why was her situation so rough.
...
"Do not run!!"
With Ethan halting his steps, he spat out the final energy blast!
The twenty-eighth slime alien was struck at a hundred meters away and blew apart into bits.
Then, in its shattered state, it was eaten clean by Ethan down to the last drop.
"Hiss, that was a really satisfying meal."
Ethan slumped to the ground, hugging his belly, saying so with great contentment.
[Ding, Host has defeated twenty-eight slime aliens through sheer strength alone, even changing the outcome of their elimination from water to something else entirely. Progress +2!]
Ethan shot to his feet instantly, full of energy.
What the heck!!
Progress went up by 2 at once??
