Chapter 37: Claw Machine

Cage's mouth fell open, his eyes wide, barely able to believe what he was seeing.

What did he see?

A Creature, one hundred and fifty centimeters tall, pitch black all over, with red markings on its body, like a monster crawled out of hell!

If someone had told him before that there were giant monsters in this world, he would have sworn to hit their butt with his aunt's frying pan!

How could such a Creature possibly exist!?

Even with the Alien creatures' arrival, he still couldn't believe such a massive Creature truly existed.

What does such a big Creature eat?

Of course, none of that was the most important thing; the most important thing was, why hadn't he seen this monster in his previous loops?

Ever since he entered the battlefield, every time he died, he would inexplicably return to the morning; it was always like this!

Killed by Alien creatures, hit by stray bullets, accidentally injured by bombs, or even suicide—no matter how he died, he would return to the morning!

Sometimes he even thought he was in some kind of game.

But the pain of each death told him that he was in a real world.

Every death was a trial for him.

And because he had died so many times, he had even learned to operate the exoskeleton armor he had never used before, even using it to slaughter on the battlefield!

But what good was it, no matter how many Alien creatures he killed?

How could he alone reverse this trap specifically set by the Alien creatures?

Having died so many times, he had already understood!

This operation was a trap set by the Alien creatures to wipe out all their forces!

But the problem was, he was insignificant; even if he told his superior, he would only be considered to be spreading rumors before the battle and be shot!

After being shot once, he became obedient.

Now, he truly had no options left.

He could only take it one step at a time on the battlefield.

Perhaps with this ability, he might even survive!

(The time of Godzilla's arrival was later, when Cage had already acquired the Alpha's blood, and before this, Cage had already experienced many loops.)

And this time, upon seeing Godzilla's appearance, Cage felt a glimmer of hope in addition to his fear.

Perhaps Godzilla's appearance could truly bring a ray of hope to break this day, which had looped countless times!

That being said, Cage wasn't foolish enough to run towards Godzilla, naively thinking Godzilla could communicate.

If he did that, he had no doubt he would simply be stomped to death by that monster!

Thinking of this, Cage shivered.

He hadn't experienced being trampled into a meat paste, and he didn't want to!

So, he turned and ran without hesitation.

And he wasn't the only one making the same move!

Compared to soldiers like them, it was the Alien creatures who, like warriors facing death, charged towards Godzilla.

And then, they truly died.

As Cage fled, he didn't forget to glance back.

Then, he saw a sight he would never forget in his life.

"Oh my god!"

"What kind of monster is that!?

This sight made many people's jaws drop.

Because they saw that Godzilla was emitting terrifying lightning from its body, just like a god of destruction wielding thunder.

Godzilla's lightning caused all the Alien creatures around it to fall to the ground, convulsing.

Smoke rose from their bodies; it was clear at a glance that they wouldn't survive.

With a burst of lightning, the area around Godzilla was instantly cleared.

And the Alien creatures further away no longer dared to approach Godzilla.

Godzilla then took strides and walked forward.

As Godzilla walked, it looked down at the ground.

There was a sense of caution in its steps.

On the ground, both humans and Alien creatures were very small.

They weren't even as big as Godzilla's fingernail.

Therefore, finding its target among so many "little guys" was not an easy task.

Most importantly, Godzilla also had to be careful not to accidentally step on and kill its target.

Otherwise, its efforts this time would be in vain.

However, even if Godzilla was very careful not to accidentally step on the target, it was hard to guarantee that the target hadn't been killed by the Alien creatures.

Therefore, Godzilla had to find the target quickly.

Godzilla looked around and quickly gave up searching with its naked eye.

Because humans were all wearing exoskeleton armor, it was difficult for him to distinguish who was who.

And besides using the naked eye, what other methods of distinction were there?

Suddenly, Godzilla's eyes lit up!

If the naked eye couldn't distinguish, then couldn't scent be used?

It remembered that because Cage had been drenched in Alpha's blood, his body contained Alpha's blood.

Therefore, Godzilla could use this to distinguish Cage, hidden in the vast crowd!

As for the Alpha's scent, Godzilla had never encountered an Alpha, so it didn't know it, but it imagined that even if there was a difference from ordinary Alien creatures, it shouldn't be significant.

So, Godzilla began to distinguish the various scents entering its nostrils.

Since it was on a battlefield, there were many humans who had killed Alien creatures and were stained with blood, but the scent emitted by a body containing Alien Creature blood was not the same as the scent of blood spilled on the body!

At the same time, Godzilla also surveyed the entire battlefield with its eyes.

It remembered that Cage had never worn a helmet since entering the battlefield!

With the combination of no helmet and scent, Godzilla quickly found several targets!

So, after entering the battlefield, Godzilla, who had been moving slowly, suddenly quickened its pace, striding towards the human army that was moving away from Godzilla.

Although Godzilla was huge and seemed very clumsy, precisely because of its immense size, each step it took could cover a great distance!

Therefore, in just a few steps, Godzilla caught up with the human army.

Then, Godzilla picked up a human without a helmet, sniffed him with its nose, and after realizing he wasn't the target, casually placed him on the ground, then extended its claw to grab another target.

In this way, Godzilla's claw, like the claw in a claw machine, picked up one "doll" after another from the ground, without a single miss.

— Cage was very panicked, more panicked than ever before.

Upon seeing the giant Creature approach, Cage immediately changed direction, wanting to leave the path Godzilla was taking.

And before he had gone far, he saw Godzilla walking towards him, picking up a person from the ground as it walked, and sniffing them under its nose.
