Chapter 452: Part 1

The bull behemoth roared once more, which caused everyone in the vicinity to shield their ears due to the how deafening the roar was. This immobilised Jin and the minotaurs, which allowed the behemoth to pick off the stationary targets like he was picking off flowers from a flower bed.

Most were able to quickly overcome the ringing in their ears caused by the behemoth's shout. Jin and Moloch were of course among them. "Tsk, I cannot believe the dungeon core gave us the hardest difficulty." Moloch cursed loudly under his breath. Jin somehow managed to overhear Moloch despite the persistent ringing after the shout of the behemoth.

"What do you mean the hardest difficulty?!!" Jin shouted as he could not even hear himself when he spoke normally.

"No time for that, throw all your firepower towards at the dungeon core guardian!" Moloch commanded all his remaining troops to fire at the behemoth. Fanatic Minotaurs from the first gate had brought their ballistae and bombards into the throne room before the initiation of the dungeon core. They immediately acceded to Moloch's command.

Despite being stationary, those siege weapons proved to a decent opening attack and also provided enough time for the rest to regroup. Jin summoned half of the zombies he still had and ordered them to harass the behemoth and keep him busy while the siege weapons rained down hell. Unfortunately, the siege weapons were destroyed almost instantaneously with one swipe from the behemoth so this plan was blown out of the water.

Surprisingly, Derek the Alpha Zombie appeared once more, which was akin to winning the lottery twice in a row. It actually was pretty similar, since "I Am The Alpha V1.0" could be seen as the lottery for zombies. Anyhow, since it was his second time in command, Derek knew what to do as compared to when he was enhanced the first time.

Hence, he made a platoon of elemental zombies and asked them to fall back for a moment as the main regiment of zombies charged forward as furiously as they could. The spikes of the behemoth proved useful against the zombies as they were shot out of the legs to prevent the zombies from biting the behemoth.

However, quantity triumphed over quality as the spikes regeneration rate was slower than the number of the zombies coming at the behemoth. The behemoth was very quickly being overwhelmed. In the meantime, Jin summoned out Peppers, Milk and Zeru.

"Milk! Prepare God's Punch!"

"Peppers! You know what you need to do!"

"Zeru! Execute your best moves against it once Peppers finishes destroying it!" Jin commanded all three bellators to do their best.

"Master, it would be best if you could immobilise it. Although the size of this thing should warrant a slower movement, it does not seem to work that way in this world!" Peppers shouted.

"I will think of a way as soon as possible. For now though, both of you start casting!" Jin agreed with Peppers after seeing how the colossal behemoth moved so agilely despite its size. He then summoned Ke Mi the Zither Mistress, Shu the Ancient Treant, Que Er the Magpie Queen, Zhi Nu the Battle Weaver, and Niu Lang the Cowherd.

As if they knew what Jin had in mind, they immediately headed to battle doing what they did best. Ke Mi the Zither Mistress played her Zither with absolute elegance in the midst of the messy chaos in the throne room. Her battle songs not only sharpened the souls of her companions, allowing them to concentrate better, it also caused the behemoth's movement to slow down a little.

Shu the Ancient Treant started to gather the elemental zombies around it as he fired them off one by one like a slingshot towards the behemoth. The elemental zombies that crashed into the behemoth discharged all of their whole elemental power as they continued to scratch and bite it to the best of their abilities. The behemoth was annoyed by this and started to used its metal hair bundle to sweep them off its back.

The zombies being catapult to the bull behemoth's back distracted it sufficiently for Niu Lang to get close to it and blow the Taurus horn that he held. What appeared from the horn was a surprise to Moloch. He witnessed the Mechataur come punching out of the horn.

"I gave the control of the Mechataur and the other bulls to Niu Lang because he seemed to have the affinity towards all cows, bulls and buffalos," Jin said as he summoned Mr Derpy from his phone.

This time round he gave a Mr Derpy a command that made him grin widely.

Not to mention, Mechataur actually had a cockpit. Niu Lang entered it as Mechataur opened the cockpit hatch for him after it was summoned. To Niu Lang's pleasant astonishment, there were Chinese words that appeared in the cockpit console system as he held onto the controls. In the cockpit console, he suddenly heard a "Welcome Niu Lang" in the voice of Taurus.

"Lord Taurus?!" Niu Lang cried out and the console indicated it to insert the Taurus Horn into it. The moment it did that, a jolt went through his brain and a series of information entered his mind.

"Thank You from the bottom of my heart, Lord Taurus." Niu Lang teared up as he gripped the control sticks and placed legs onto the paddles. With a flick of a button, the console system lit up brightly. "Taurus Titan System unlocked, initiating Heavy Armament mode." Mechataur, who was a previously simple minotaur looking robot, suddenly underwent an amazing transformation.

Two jumbo sized Gatling guns grew out from each side of its arms. Its chest opened up and revealed not just a heavy blasting cannon but also multiple missile slots. Behind its shoulder plates, two homing missile launchers were activated and aimed at the behemoth. Its tail separated into three prongs as it acted as a tripod against the recoil.

"EAT LEAD!" Niu Lang and Mechataur shouted in sync. Continuous sounds of bombardment drowned the Heavy Armament Version of Mechataur in smoke as the Gatling guns rotated speedily to rain bullets of lead upon the Behemoth, who was trying to get up after being punched by the very same massive robot. Missiles screamed and exploded when they came into contact with the skin of bull behemoth. Cannons pierced holes through the behemoth. The zombies that were still on the behemoth and had not been burned by the friendly fire crawled into the holes to discharge their elemental energy inside of the behemoth for extra damage.

Niu Lang later realised that the reason the behemoth was still pinned down was all thanks to Zhi Nu the Battle Weaver as her strings immobilised the massive bull momentarily the instance the behemoth had gone went down. Of course, it was with her weaving strings. But Zhi Nu couldn't have done it alone. Such a colossal behemoth would be extremely taxing to pin down and if it had not been for the help of Que Er, the Magpie Queen which boosted everyone's magic or chi capacity through her Magpie Witchery since no one could have lasted so long against something so large.

The bombardments from Mechataur were fierce but they were not enough to keep it down. Eventually, it ran out of ammo and Mechataur overheated from the constant barrage of attacks. Even Niu Lang, who was in the cockpit, felt the heat emitted from the gigantic robot.

"One minute temporary emergency shutdown for cooldown." The console system indicated red and out popped a cycling pedal. Niu Lang immediately stepped onto the cycling pedal and rode like his life depended on it, which it sort of did. By doing so, it would help to accelerate the cooling system.

"GOOOODDDDD PUNCH!" Milk was in midair, courtesy of our friendly neighbourhood slingshot tree, and sent her beautiful signature attack crashing down into the behemoth's face. The golden fist of holy judgement burned through the face of the behemoth.

"I am not done!! PART TWO!" With the boost of magic powers by Magpie Queen, Milk was able to transcend her limits by twirling her entire body once before executing another God Punch. The punch displayed a silver fist rather than gold but the damage it did against the behemoth was still immense.

However, something unexpected happened to the behemoth after Milk punched it.
