Deep Sea Fish Hunting Specialty Broadcast – 60

EP.60 Falling Moon House Beam (3)

Magnus was heavy and large.

And according to the general rules of this world, if something was large and heavy, it was slow.

The common thought was that a giant about 100 meters tall would take several seconds to take a single step.

Unfortunately, in this merciless sea, such implicit rules had long become a crude joke.

Thud, thud, thud, thud.

A 100-meter-tall statue charged towards Parang.

Even with holes punctured all over its body and its major joints shattered, it still moved at a fast pace.

It took four steps in less than three seconds, moving at a speed of approximately 50 meters per second.

The strength of the Statues, excluding the Titans, came from their overwhelming physical power and their reckless, aggressive movements.

When a 10-meter or 100-meter stone figure moved like a martial artist, each action carried formidable destructive power.

When dozens or hundreds of such beings moved together, they could indeed be called a calamity of the deep sea.

Ironically, the Titans, which could exert the greatest physical power, barely moved and fought in a different manner.

This led to a hypothesis at one time that Titans and other Statues might be different species.

This hypothesis was later refuted by its proposer, Vertea.

Swoosh!!

Parang performed an almost acrobatic swim, changing her course at a right angle.

Then, whoosh!!!

Boom!!!!

Magnus clapped its hands together, crushing the space where Parang had just been as if catching a bug.

“Russell!!!!”

She signaled to Russell, who was circling around Magnus’s head, waiting for an opportunity.

“Uuuuuuaaaaah!!!”

With a wild scream, Russell charged towards Magnus’s nape, yellow light bursting from his eyes.

Soon, his arm flickered and was enveloped in an aura of the same color as the light.

Zzzzzzzz-

It coalesced into the shape of a shark.

One, two, three, four…

The single shark soon became a swarm of sharks.

Boom!!

As Russell drove his fist into Magnus’s nape, a loud noise erupted, and yellow waves burst forth as the swarm of sharks attacked, causing additional explosions.

…Bang!

Boom!

After the last shark lunged and sank its jaws into the statue, a red wave signaling the destruction of the core burst forth.

” ”

Magnus’s body stiffened and then collapsed.

Rumble, rumble, rumble-

Thud-!

When the 100-meter-tall giant fell, it shook the area as if an earthquake had occurred.

The surroundings were already filled with shattered white fragments and fallen Statues.

The reason the fallen Statues didn’t dissolve into light was that their bodies were considered ‘drop items’ by the system.

Zzzzzzzz-

The Magnus that Parang and Russell had just defeated also dissolved into white light, leaving behind a magic stone, arms, legs, and a face.

Why it was like this, Parang didn’t know. Was it suggesting they make armor out of it?

Well, whatever the origin.

From a distance, it would undoubtedly look like a mountain of corpses had piled up.

It was undeniably a grotesque sight.

Whether they were stone or something else, the Statues had human forms.

However, Parang and Russell felt no emotion as they looked at the scene.

They had slaughtered over ten thousand Statues by now.

There was no reason to be moved by such a sight, nor did they have the luxury to be.

After all, their remaining comrades were still fighting the Titan.

Thud-

In the distance, the heavy sounds of the Titan’s movements still echoed.

1 km.

It was a size not permitted to living beings.

Watching such a massive entity thumping around in the abyss would make anyone’s legs go weak and fill them with a sense of helplessness.

And what if one had to fight against that giant thing?

Parang stared at the Titan.

It was like watching a mountain move.

Her comrades were now fighting against a moving mountain.

“…Let’s go.”

Parang shot towards the Titan like an arrow.

#

As soon as Parang reached the front of the Titan, it fell towards her with a thunderous noise.

It wasn’t collapsing; it was just falling over.

However, the mere act of falling caused a shockwave of natural disaster proportions, making Parang instinctively cross her arms to shield her face.

Had she been just 100 meters closer, she would have been flattened like a dried fish.

In the distance, about 1 km away from Parang, she could see Diego, who had grown to his maximum size, holding the Titan’s ankle.

He had brought it down in hand-to-hand combat.

Since Diego’s maximum height was 500 meters, it was like a 4-meter-tall person engaging in hand-to-hand combat.

And that too, fully clad in a thick diving suit.

Truly, a monster.

Creak- Creak-

Around the fallen Titan, pillars of bone burning with a blue-green flame shot up, binding its arms and legs.

Resembling the ribs of a quadruped, these bones pinned only the legs, arms, and fingers to the ground.

It was likely because Xiao couldn’t find bones large enough to bind the torso as well.

If such bones existed, that would be another problem in itself.

Parang looked at the bones restraining the Titan’s arms with a peculiar feeling.

A little distance away from the bones, Xiao was extending his arms, emitting blue-green flames from his entire body.

Next to him, Vertea and Elvira were fiercely charging towards the Titan’s bound arm.

Creak- Creak-!!!

Vertea reached out towards the Titan’s arm, which was precariously bound by bones that seemed ready to shatter at any moment, and cast a skill, causing the Titan’s surface to start glowing red.

Vertea moved at an explosive speed, heating up an increasingly larger surface area.

Then, thunk!!

A dull sound emerged from the pulsating part of the heated surface,

Boom!! Boom!! Boom!!!

Elvira instantly poured her skills into that spot, shattering the core.

This was the method Oceanos favored when hunting Titans. It was fast, concise, and precise enough to deliver pinpoint strikes to the core.

As soon as one core was destroyed, the Titan broke free from its bone restraints and shook off Diego, who had been buying time by lying on top of it.

Parang observed the Titan closely and saw that a significant number of cores had already been destroyed.

Its wrists, cheeks, and jaw were either shattered or cracked, and about three fingers seemed to have been forcibly torn off.

Though it was hard to see from a distance, there were likely countless similar marks on its torso and legs.

All were traces of destroyed cores.

Unlike other Statues, Titans had dozens of cores.

Oceanos speculated that a creature the size of a Titan couldn’t operate with just one core.

Indeed, the more cores they destroyed, the slower the Titan’s movements became, and if the number of remaining cores dropped below ten, it would stop completely.

However, this was just a guess; they didn’t know if it was true.

They had never studied the substance known as the core.

They didn’t know how it operated or even what it was made of.

Of course, there had been attempts to study the cores.

But it was nearly impossible to extract a core from a frenzied Statue and use it for research.

Even extracting the core was a herculean task.

So all they knew was that it was ‘hot’ and ‘red.’

Questions about how it was embedded in the Statue and how it generated power remained unanswered.

Anyway, the point was that Titans had many cores.

No matter what they did, Statues wouldn’t stop moving until their cores were destroyed, meaning Parang and Oceanos had to work even harder.

Crackle!!

By now, the Titan had broken free from its bone restraints, thrown Diego aside, and resumed its attack.

It was time for Parang to intervene and help her comrades.

But she stood still, watching the Titan rise.

Facing that statue still brought back memories of that time.

Alice’s incident had been a tremendous shock to all of Oceanos.

Their cherished comrade had vanished.

Imagine if Vertea were kidnapped by a deep-sea monster tomorrow.

It wouldn’t be surprising if all of Oceanos went mad and tried to hunt down every monster in the world’s oceans.

But for Parang, it was even more intense, much more so.

She was the only one who had seen Alice being dragged away.

Alice Melville went missing while exploring the East Sea with Parang, entangled with a Titan.

It was an immense trauma for Parang.

‘Wow, damn… it’s really huge. What could that be?’

She vividly remembered discovering the Titan while exploring the East Sea with Alice.

‘What, what the… why is that…!!!’

The shock of finding something that even the Kraken couldn’t handle was still fresh.

‘Parang!! Parang!!!!!’

She also remembered Alice being dragged away by it.

‘Die!!! Die!! Please!!! Just die already!! Damn it!!!!’

She still remembered herself screaming and attacking wildly.

‘Alice, Alice!! Please, no!! Damn it!! Come here!! Come here!!! Aaaaaaaah!!!!’

And she remembered herself pounding the ground like a madwoman at the spot where it had dragged Alice underground.

Everything felt as if it had happened yesterday, no, just moments ago.

Though she didn’t want to admit it, among the emotions Parang had towards the Titan, there was clearly ‘fear.’

Deep within her heart, she still heard the never-ending whispers.

‘Run away. Hide. Run away. Hide.’

Parang was fully aware of this fact. She just didn’t want to admit it.

So now, Parang was frozen. She hated herself for being frozen, hated herself for trembling slightly, even if unconsciously.

Parang was frozen.

Russell quietly looked at her and patted her shoulder.

“If it’s too hard, take a break. I can handle it this time.”

“…No. I still have to do it.”

“You don’t have to push yourself too hard. You were frozen because you were thinking about that time again.”

“I said I’m fine.”

“…Got it.”

Unable to find more words to say, he charged towards the Titan first.

Parang tried to follow immediately, but her body wouldn’t listen.

…

Smack-!

Parang slapped her own cheek hard.

‘Get a grip, Yu Parang.’

The trembling in her legs subsided a bit.

She charged towards the Titan.
