Chapter 131: Overdrive!
Roka smiled widely as the Giganto Zilla’s crystals remained without light.
She saw lightning strike, and assumed that it had hit one of the lightning rods she had placed in the area.
‘I still need to get away from here though!’
Meanwhile,
“ARRGHHH!!!”
ROAAAR!
[Your Skill “Lightning Resistance” is going into overdrive!]
[Your Skill “Electric Storage” is going into overdrive!]
The tingling feeling having only grown stronger, the Paru had realized the possibility of his body being struck.The instant he realized that, the Paru extended his previously hidden limbs.
From six of the eight holes in his back exited the sharp legs that he had kept from his time as a normal Paru.
But they had completely changed.
Indeed, they presently looked like limbs covered and made entirely of Crystals.
He swiftly extended them, three on each side of his spine.
The top two were extended upwards and curled up, hovering in the air above his head.
The middle two connected the top and bottom ones.
The bottom two were extended downward to pierce the ground.
As many kinds of crystals had been discovered and Devoured by the Paru, he had thought up a way to use them.
Instead of having each limb be made of a combination of the different crystals, he used crystals with specific properties for each row of limbs.
The top two were red, like ruby, made of the Crystals that could store large amounts of energy.
The middle ones were made of different kinds of Crystals and shone radiantly. The Crystals used were incredibly good conductors of energy and electricity. Among the Crystals making up these limbs were the Crystals that could be found on a Giganto Zilla’s body, which could both store and conduct energy.
The limbs of the bottom row were made of Crystals that couldn’t store energy and would, instead, let it pass through very easily.
Essentially, the upper limbs would take in and store the energy, and the lower limbs would take it and let it flow into the ground. This would allow a path of least resistance for the energy, and keep him safe.

Before lightning struck, the Paru’s eyes widened suddenly.
He reached forward, aiming at the Giganto Zilla with his palms, and used his Burning Mist Expulsion Skill at maximum output.
The goal was to take out all of the mist that had already been produced within him, fearing that it would explode inside of him upon lightning hitting.
The burning mist had been divided into two Skills. Burning Mist Production, and Burning Mist Expulsion. This led the Paru to believe that, if his will was against producing more of that mist, then the pouches within him would remain empty. He was right.
At no point before had he wanted the production of the burning mist to stop, which is why his reserves were always full.
A moment after all of the Burning Mist within the Paru had been expelled, lightning struck.
The Paru clenched his teeth as lightning came into contact with the limbs protruding from his back, acting like lightning rods.
His idea on how to combat lightning wasn’t bad.
But unfortunately,
“AARGHHH!!”
Compared to that covering a Giganto Zilla’s, the quantity of Crystal covering the Paru’s body was tiny.

[Your Skill “Electric Storage” is going into overdrive!]
[Your Skill “Heat Resistance Lv2” is going into overdrive!]
As the Skills did their best to combat the lightning, burning, and electricity coursing through his body, the Paru like he would pass out.
His skin, muscles, bones, limbs, and organs… Everything felt like it would burn and tear.
[Your Skill “Regeneration” is going into overdrive!]
Through the pain, shouts, and burning… A different sensation started to arise.

A drop of blood exited the Paru’s mouth, before evaporating.

[Your Skill “Electric Surge Lv3” Temporarily becomes “Electric Surge Lv4”!]

The Giganto Zilla roared and moved forward!
It opened its jaws wide, ready to devour the, now, visible Paru.
But,
“Holy shit…” The Paru muttered.
The Giganto Zilla slowly turned around.
It had taken less than a second for the Paru to dodge and position himself behind the Giganto Zilla.
“Fuck…” He cursed, clenching and unclenching his fist over and over again while staring at his palm.
[You have Temporarily Developed the Skill “Electric Surge Lv MAX”!]
[Your Strength, Agility, and Perception Stat Temporarily increase exponentially!]
The Giganto Zilla let out low growls, filled with wrath and jealousy.
“So… This is the feeling you keep running after…?”
[You have Temporarily Developed the Skill “Electric Storage Lv MAX”!]
[Endurance Points: 47000/1900.]
[Use the overflow of energy before your body collapses and turns to ash.]
“Well…” The Paru muttered as he turned to the side.
[Your Skill “Enhanced Vision” Temporarily becomes “Enhanced Vision Lv MAX”!]
Even though Roka was so far away, he could precisely see her.
“You don’t have to tell me twice.” He smirked as he turned back towards the Giganto Zilla.
[Quest: “Survive Lightning!”.]
[Objective: Use up the overflow of energy in the next 60 seconds and survive!]
[Reward: 1 Skill Point.]
The Paru let out a sigh.
The tingles and shivers just wouldn’t stop.
“Alright.”
Just as the Paru stepped forward, the Giganto Zilla opened its mouth wide and-
The Paru disappeared.
BAM!
Before it could even make a move, its eyes widened with surprise as an incredibly powerful hit landed on the side of its face!
Standing by its side was the Paru.
He stared with a slight smile on his face, his slit pupils and red iris glistening!
‘In these next sixty seconds…’
Four more hits landed on the Giganto Zilla’s head.
Another landed on its back, immediately cracking one of its crystals.
‘I’ll use up everything last bit of it.’
Just like Giganto Zillas do!
One of the Crystals on the Giganto Zilla’s side fell to the ground.
Two seconds had passed.
