Boom—!!!
A thunderous roar shook the heavens in the distance.
At the spot where Ronald and Lilu were fleeing, a thousand-ter giant hand landed heavily on the mountain. Not to ntion the terrifying impact faced by whatever lay beneath, the air currents it stirred up created a ripping storm all around.
...
Faced with this scene, Ronald was prepared to deal with the impending impact.
The subsequent changes were surprising.
Before the terrifying storm reached them, it inexplicably vanished!
"..."
"Just like the water I summoned earlier, the wind cannot exist here for long!"
Lilu reacted quickly to this phenonon and imdiately revealed the reason.
However, such a discovery at this mont could no longer move them.
The starting point of everything was right before their eyes.
The giant hand that slapped down on the mountain was not an isolated entity; it was only a limb of an even larger life-form—a hand extended from the mountains.
Hundreds of peaks surrounded Ronald and Lilu.
In reality, they were all connected, forming the body of a giant!
The earthquake they experienced on the mountain was not a phenonon of the environnt, but the giant sensing 'little bugs' on its body and shaking itself before raising its hand to squash them!
Ronald continued to lead Lilu away from this giant.
He started changing direction, flying upward. Previously, when they were active here, it was proven that being in the air would not disturb these colossal creatures.
...
Below, the giant was rising.
Watching this ever-taller figure, Ronald could no longer estimate the actual size just by eyesight. At this distance, the dinsions had beco purely a mirage.
But just thinking about those peaks, tens of thousands of ters high…
The power of this massive life-form was already an undeniable fact.
Several minutes later, the giant stood completely upon the earth.
With no obstruction from the clouds, Ronald, keeping a distance, could observe the contour of this enormous creature.
Whether by coincidence or so other reason.
This creature had limbs, a torso, and a head like a human, with faintly discernible enormous facial features. Only the eyes were unlike humans, composed of complex rocky spheres.
Lilu beside Ronald remarked:
"This thing... perhaps only an interstellar Leviathan could be larger than it?"
Ronald bluntly replied:
"Lilu, to , this is the largest life-form I have ever seen!"
Lilu heard the awe in Ronald's voice and hastily added:
"The largest living thing on the surface—that's also the biggest thing I've ever seen!"
"..."
Gazing at this colossal presence, Ronald tried to recall his own experiences.
Among the gigantic objects he had encountered—
Bapulor's use of Complete Technique, the thousand-ter figure spread out in the [Infinite Negative Domain], was like a bug easily squishable with a kick compared to this thing.
As for the dust giant beast, larger in scope...
In re size comparison, it was perhaps just a pet the size of a kitten.
Ronald couldn't help but tremble inwardly.
Was he really going to fight such a thing?
Counting the spells he mastered, at the mont, only a few limited ans might harm sothing so large.
If the opponent possessed so form of self-repair ability, it would be an almost unbeatable situation!
Crunch—
Just as Ronald and Lilu were sowhat at a loss, a harsh sound of earth and stone friction arose from the giant's top.
Looking over, it turned out to be the rock at the giant's lip area, moving and rubbing together.
"Its lips are moving… Is it going to speak?"
Ronald had just voiced his guess.
Before Lilu could respond, a foreign voice erged from the giant's mouth. The rhythm of the sound clearly was not a roar, but so language conveying aning!
Lilu instinctively grasped Ronald's clothes tighter, as the na she used to refer to the giant changed correspondingly:
"Ronald, this guy is talking! It has intelligence, knowledge!"
Ronald was as astonished as Lilu.
Because of language comprehension ability, Ronald could directly understand what the giant was saying!
"An unknown existence invades the world—"
"Mountains, bring forth your will, awaken now—!!!"
"..."
As the giant's voice fell, silence reigned between heaven and earth.
Ronald and Lilu looked around, and within seconds, the sound of giants rising repeatedly began ringing around them.
Every or several mountain ranges were actually the bodies of slumbering giants. The mont Ronald and Lilu left the arid region, they were flying directly above countless giants!
And the first giant that Ronald and Lilu awakened was actually not the largest one. Among the giants continuously awakening, there were more than a few whose forms towered even taller than him!
"..."
"Lilu, hold on to ."
In this situation, Ronald reminded the rmaid:
"Use any defensive spells you have; I'm going to accelerate."
Lilu was snapped out of her daze by Ronald, and magic fluctuations flashed several tis across her body:
"Ronald, let's go!"
Whoosh—
The mont he heard Lilu's voice, Ronald accelerated to the maximum, soaring straight into the sky.
Countless giants stood upon the earth.
Wherever the two went, they couldn't escape their territory. The only path to safety was upwards!
As for fighting...
Faced with the first one alone, Ronald was already feeling uneasy.
Now, this situation was simply beyond what human strength could resolve!
"..."
Ronald sped upward with Lilu.
Yet even so, they couldn't imdiately leave the range of the giants' presence—they were just so high, so large, incomparably beyond common sense!
During this process, the giants awakening around them also stood upright, beginning dialogues with the first giant.
Ronald and Lilu coincidentally overheard the giants' conversations while flying.
"Intruders…"
"Where are the intruders?!"
"..."
"Sothing other than earth elent landed here, but I can't see them…"
"They're too small."
"..."
"How to proceed?"
"Sense the elent, find them out!"
To Ronald and Lilu, the dialogues between the giants sounded like thunderous rumbles.
Fortunately, their reaction speed wasn't overly fast; it took a while after awakening to decide on a thod to find the intruders.
Amidst this, a vast force of earth elent began to spread across the entire land.
Every inch of space below ten thousand ters was thoroughly scanned.
Luckily, Ronald and Lilu had chosen the correct escape route, rushing into the sky and evading the giants' pervasive search.
