Chapter 81: Spike's Ruthless Rampage Continues!
As Mashu had predicted, after swinging Lü Bu away with a single strike, Spike immediately charged towards the group at an astonishing speed, just as agile as before. However, the twisted spiral, once the "Halberd," no longer served any purpose in his hand.
Spike casually discarded the twisted spiral as if it were garbage, throwing it into a seemingly appeared trash can on the side, even though it was unlikely to find a trash can in a residential area in Japan. When discarding it, Spike hesitated for a moment, wondering whether the twisted spiral should be thrown into the combustible waste or non-combustible waste for proper waste sorting.
After a brief hesitation, Spike had a sudden inspiration. He decisively used the twisted spiral, symbolizing it as a toothpick, and poked it between his teeth. In this way, it was equivalent to a toothpick. Consequently, Spike casually threw the twisted spiral into the compostable waste category.
After disposing of the twisted spiral, Spike satisfiedly clapped his nonexistent hands, pretending to dust them off. Then, his expression suddenly changed, returning to an extremely fierce look. He leaned forward, reverting to a four-legged posture, and swiftly pounced towards Gudako and the others, howling.
Witnessing Spike's menacing charge, Mashu quickly positioned her shield in front of Gudako. Although Chen Gong had successfully blocked Spike's attack before, this time was evidently different. The teeth that Spike bit into her shield previously were as fragile as glass, even resembling white opaque glass when they shattered.
Moreover, having experienced the previous incident where his teeth shattered against the shield, Spike should have understood its hardness. Nevertheless, it relentlessly opened its large mouth and charged towards them, showing clear confidence. It must be because of its new set of teeth, most likely a Noble Phantasm, that it believed it could easily break through their defense. Thus, its gaze towards Mashu resembled that of a lamb to be slaughtered.
This display of overconfidence even made Mashu start to doubt whether her shield could withstand this attack. As the saying goes, "Fear the beginning." Once she entertained the thought that she might not be able to block this attack, Mashu's brain began to storm with doubts. Coupled with Spike's arrogant "aura of terror," Mashu, influenced by this aura, became increasingly uncertain about whether the shield could hold up against this strike.
Not to mention her, even Gudako had been startled by the previous encounter. Anyone who witnessed Spike ferociously charging towards them would undoubtedly feel a sense of dread. The level of the "aura of terror" that they experienced from Spike charging towards them was off the charts.
Although Mashu's confidence started to waver, she couldn't retreat at this moment, as Gudako, the Master, was right behind her.
Finally, Spike charged forward with its enormous mouth wide open and viciously bit down on Mashu!
"Ah!" Seeing this, Mashu immediately raised her shield, attempting to defend against Spike's attack. At that moment, Spike's teeth were about to hit the upper right portion of Mashu's shield.
*Crack!* Accompanied by the sound of metal breaking, the same exact impact location and biting pattern as before, but with a subtle difference—Mashu's shield... was broken.
Holding her shield, Mashu looked at the plate-sized dent that appeared on the upper right side, her eyes trembling, and her mouth involuntarily gaping into a square shape.
To make matters worse, the dent was filled with bite marks from Spike's teeth.
Some might call it a "flawed beauty" akin to the "Venus de Milo," but if the arms of the "Venus de Milo" were bitten off by a mischievous dog, would it still have a romantic feeling?
At this moment, Mashu was undoubtedly in despair.
"My shield... is broken..." Mashu trembled as she touched the formerly curved surface, now a dent, on the upper right side of her shield.
Seeing the despondent girl in front of him, Spike felt incredibly powerful. He decided to savor the moment of revenge, his eyes filled with satisfaction. It felt great to settle a big score.
*Squeak, squeak.* At the same time, Spike continued to chew on the fragment of the shield in his mouth, producing a grating metallic collision sound. Finally, when he felt he had chewed enough, Spike casually spat out a lump of black substance like he was spitting out gum. "Ptu!"
After spitting out the lump that resembled the remains of a shield, Spike stood there, hands on his hips, motionless.
Chen Gong immediately realized that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and shouted, "General Lü Bu!"
Lü Bu, who had his head plunged into the ground, his upper body sticking out like an onion, quickly responded. He pressed his hands against the ground and effortlessly pulled himself out of the soil.
As soon as he emerged from the ground, Lü Bu heard Chen Gong calling his name.
Without hesitation, Lü Bu sprang into action. With a single swift leap, he jumped about a meter in the air and delivered a flying kick directly to Spike's dog-like face!
*Bang!* In the moment of kicking Spike, time seemed to slow down for some inexplicable reason.
Everyone could clearly see the scene where Lü Bu kicked Spike in the face, as if they were watching a slow-motion replay. It was as if God had pressed the slow-motion button at that moment.
In clear view, as Lü Bu's feet made contact with Spike's dog face, Spike's face immediately caved in, causing its jaw to retract backward.
With the force fully exerted on Spike, he was immediately sent flying with a resounding sound. Due to being kicked on the left side of his face, Spike started spinning in the air, rotating a full 720 degrees. As everyone watched, Spike's image suddenly transformed into a vision of him closing his dog eyes, hands on hips, wearing a ballet skirt, and performing ballet in mid-air.
The sight of it made almost everyone feel nauseous, almost to the point of vomiting up their overnight meals.
The 'wonderful' moment was fleeting, and Spike didn't stay airborne for long. After flying more than ten meters, he crashed onto the ground and rolled away into the distance. Simultaneously, the time slowdown effect vanished.
As Spike rolled on the ground, he emitted a rolling sound effect, as if he had a dog's mouth making rolling noises.
"Gulu gulu gulu~~~."
