Using water to moisten his clothes and turning them into a stick, he strikes and shatters giant rocks; casually spitting out a toothpick, he can kill a heavy armored knight from a hundred ters away.
He has long reached the point where even picking leaves and flying flowers can kill.
And his most frequently used weapon is his... cousin.
Because the promotion ceremony for the Copper Golem is called "Thousand Hamring and Hundred Refining", the more strikes it takes, the higher its intensity, and the faster it promotes.
Hawkins, holding his cousin in hand, stirs up winds and thunder across the sky, thrusting towards the next Sea Monster that’s pouncing; a fierce cold light flashes, and amidst a rain of blood, a Sea Monster resembling an eel is stabbed through its head.
"Hahaha, who says you can’t kill without a spearhead?
My cousin’s big head and little head are divine weapons in my hands!"
Adjusting his breathing rhythm, a halo of [Celestial Descent] lights up above his head, connecting with this part of the ocean, he leaps over the waves hundreds of ters high.
With his left hand, he casually twists the endless rain threads above his head, shooting out a sharp and incomparable array of "Torrential Pear Blossom Needles"!
The nearby two Sea Monsters are instantly pierced front and back, spraying blood wildly, falling into the sea like a broken sieve.
These seemingly hybrid Sea Monsters, though uglier, mostly do not exhibit particularly extraordinary abilities, rely succeeding in size and numbers.
Moreover, most of them are small species with body lengths just over thirty ters, with large and giant species rarely seen.
Hawkins speculates they are likely not naturally promoted by breaking through racial limits, but rather Kin polluted by so high-rank entity.
As for the source of the contamination, the first he thought of was: "Mother of Monsters·Echidna and Her Kin!"
The recorded history of humans is divided into three major parts: Paleozoic Era, Mythological Era, Silver Era (Chapter 496). Legend has it that Echidna is an ancient god born of the Paleozoic Era, symbolizing the most primitive vitality.
Including the [Hundred-Headed Dragon Mother·Tiamat], [Thousand-Faced Serpent·Hydra], and other famous Old Gods are Her descendants.
The crisis-filled Sea of Monsters is Her Divine Domain, influencing the surrounding three continents profoundly over countless years.
Legend says, as long as the material world’s ecosystem exists, even if only a single paracium or a bacterium remains, She will never truly die.
Besides this, this older-than-old presence is left with endless mysteries to humans.
But Transcendents and Adventurers active on the known world’s edge, many believe the first resurrected Old God is very likely Her!
At least like the [Slumbering God·Kraken], She can send an incarnation back to the Material World in "I birth myself" fashion in advance.
This rank of existence needs no wisdom or planning, rely by existing, it contaminates vast amounts of ocean life, driving them from the seabed, bringing catastrophic disasters to coastal areas.
However, Hawkins’ judgnt on the composition of the beast tide was evidently inaccurate.
Perhaps those small, warped species entirely co from contamination by a higher entity, but if certain individuals were originally Sea Monsters and then doubly contaminated, what would they ultimately transform into?
Just as Hawkins was wielding his cousin Francis, killing several Sea Monsters not much stronger than Leviathan Whales in succession, the seawater underfoot suddenly exploded.
Dozens of tentacles covered in rings of blue patterns broke the water, sweeping towards them from all directions.
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Upon realizing what was coming, even with Hawkins’ boldness, his scalp tingled instantly.
Even Francis in his hand, transford into a "Copper Man", nearly went limp on the spot, exclaiming in panic: "Get it away, away, don’t let touch that thing."
The large species Sea Monster that suddenly appeared, comparable to a Third Level Ship, turned out to be a venomous Blue-Ringed Octopus!
Ordinary individuals in nature, even with tentacles extended, are no larger than a human palm, yet a single Blue-Ringed Octopus can poison twenty adults.
Imagine how fierce the venom would be for a transcendent species whose body size has expanded to 40 ters long.
And there are far more than one such monster; their indiscriminate killing did not deter the beast tide, but instead drew large species from all directions slowly encroaching.
Hawkins and Francis both had trembling calves, gritting teeth intending to command the [Banshee’s Wail] to leap into the Edge of the World, prioritize returning to the Kingdom to assist defense. Whether the Fishn can withstand the harsh environnt of Deadman’s World will remain to fate.
At this mont, his [Divine Sight] was suddenly triggered.
"Eh? Is it lightning? Is it a teor? No, it’s a spear!"
A bright blue electric light shot from the far end of his perception horizon, like a thunderbolt flashing in the air arriving in front of them.
In a split mont of lightning, Hawkins vaguely caught sight of an ancient spear.
The spear shaft seed to be made of so golden wood, while the spearhead was half-transparent blue crystal, engraved with runes on both sides, "Hunt" on one side, "Ta" on the other.
It was the [Sure-hit Spear, Gungnir]!
Legend has it to be the weapon of [Prophecy, Royal Iron, and Mad Hunt Deity] Woden.
In the apocalyptic battle that ended the Mythological Era, it was this god who wielded this divine spear to launch the first strike.
During the cold weapon period, Ancient Bayfolk traditionally had commanders throw spears to enemies before combat; this custom was inherited from that era.
When Woden cast this spear, it emitted radiance that lit the sky, referred to as "lightning" by people on the ground, alternatively called "teor".
