Chapter 60 Chapter 60 The Jurassic Showdown Comes to an End (?...
Certainly not the Jurassic.
Even though the distance was quite far, and even though the two people below were wrestling fiercely, Jason and Li Hua could still clearly see the green emblem on the creature's chest that contrasted sharply with its ochre scales.
"This is the Humungousaur..."
Jason was stunned. He knew Benjamin liked to play with a reckless style, and he always heard him say things like the Matterhorn Rex was very powerful, but he never thought he was such a wild type.
A bigger part of the reason was that Benjamin was such a loving parent, and Benjamin was the shortest among them. His small arms and legs were sometimes very childish, and he even liked to scream like a boy when excited. So even though Li Hua and Benjamin had said many times that he liked power-type heroes who went for the reckless style, Jason had always thought it was an exaggeration because he saw that Benjamin had not done anything after getting the Kryptonian DNA.
Who knew Benjamin was so wild at heart!
"No wonder he likes it so much. It's the same type of power hero as the Four-Handed Overlord."
Li Hua muttered to himself. While he was stunned, Killer Croc had already raised the khaki dragon and smashed it hard on the concrete river bank, causing the familiar ground to shake.
"Those are the Vaksari from Terradino," 666's voice came over the communication headset. "Their scales are rough and hard, possessing immense physical defense and strength. In some cases, they can modify their body shape to gain even greater strength and defense."
Jason: "Oh my god, this guy's at least 10 feet tall."
Can it get bigger? How big can it get?
Number 666 corrected: "It's 12 feet. This is the size of a young Vaksaari. Adult Vaksaari are not that small."
Jason and Batman were silent.
Li Hua tried to Google how many meters equal 12 feet, but as soon as he entered the number 12, 666 knew what he was going to do and announced the answer directly: "It's 3.66 meters. Next time, just ask me directly."
So Li Hua also fell silent.
Even as a minor, he is 3.66 meters tall and can quickly expand his body to increase his strength. No wonder Benjamin, who likes strong and powerful things, has always been obsessed with the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
I guess he fell in love after the first transformation. It was love at first sight!
"...Wait, something's not right?" Jason watched the fistfight below for a long time. "Why do I feel like Ben is the one getting beaten?"
Logically speaking, with the BUFFs of the Godzilla Rex stacked up like this, Benjamin should be able to defeat Killer Croc just by relying on the numerical advantage, but during the time they were talking, Benjamin had been beaten by Killer Croc five times.
"The gap in physical skills and experience is too great. He's so focused on overpowering his opponent with pure force that he's neglected technique and thinking." Batman saw the problem immediately. "And judging by his proficiency in physical use, Killer Croc is clearly stronger."
Of course, Killer Croc has been around for decades, and Benjamin has probably not played Astro Rex as long as some people who love games on Steam.
However, the few people on the embankment showed no intention of going down to help. It wasn't that they didn't care about Benjamin, but they clearly saw that whether Benjamin was dragged by the tail and thrown away or punched in the chest by Killer Croc, he was able to stand up as if nothing had happened, without a scratch.
The skin of the Waksari people can withstand high temperatures, explosions, bullets, and energy wave impacts. Killer Croc's simple throwing, throwing, grabbing and biting certainly cannot break the defense of the Mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex, so although Benjamin has been defeated, his skin has not been broken for so long.
At this moment, Killer Croc finally understood what it felt like when an ordinary human hit him with his bare hands.
The opponent was bigger than him, had stronger scales, greater strength, and was just as fast. He fought for a long time and was out of breath, but the opponent didn't even break his skin, and not a drop of blood was shed!
Killer Croc quickly realized that if the battle dragged on, he would lose, so after confirming that his usual attacks were ineffective, he immediately changed his attack strategy.
He no longer tried to take the monster's attacks head-on, but instead began to dodge, and his fighting style...
"This guy copied!" Jason said, "Isn't this the tactic we usually use when fighting Killer Croc?"
Yes, Killer Croc couldn't use this small-scale fighting method in the past because of his size, but he had been beaten with this fighting method for so many years, and even if it was the first time he used it, it was enough to deal with this "beast" who could only wield a turtle punch.
He could tell that this creature had intelligence. Although he didn't know the specific level of intelligence, it was obvious that "it" was not very skilled in fighting with bare hands.
And this is the key to Killer Croc's victory.
After putting some distance between himself and the yellow humanoid dinosaur, Killer Croc suddenly ran towards the sewer entrance, with the monster following closely behind.
"This is a trap. The sewers are Killer Croc's lair, and he's going to use the terrain to his advantage to take out the Mighty Tyrannosaurus!"
Batman's temples were swollen when he saw this. He immediately jumped off the embankment and rushed into the sewer entrance with Jason and Li Hua. He made up his mind to give Benjamin a good scolding.
Benjamin actually followed it into such an obvious trap, and did not even report his actions to his teammates in real time!
Although the two humanoid reptiles were huge in size, their movement speed was not slow compared to their reminders. In addition, the sewer was full of twists and turns like a maze. Killer Croc originally wanted to confuse the Tyrannosaurus Rex and deal with it. By the time they rushed into the sewer, he had already lost it.
Jason: "Magic boy, locate them. We need to find them immediately."
"The straight-line distance at 10 o'clock is one hundred meters." Li Hua reported the data given by No. 666, and whispered a spell to summon the bird-beak staff in his hand, ready to dunk on the big lizard head that appeared at any time.
"Boom!" There were bursts of vibrations coming from the direction Li Hua pointed, and it sounded like some huge creature was struggling.
Everyone's heart tightened. No one wanted the struggling person to be Benjamin, so they immediately quickened their pace and rushed towards the epicenter.
With such clear guidance, the three of them quickly found the place where the fight took place. They discovered that Killer Croc was wrapped around the Magnificent Rex and was performing a naked choke on it, while Benjamin was ramming against the surrounding walls in an attempt to knock Killer Croc down.
But Killer Croc was a Gotham man after all, and even though he was hit so hard that his bones felt like they were broken, he still refused to let go, and gradually began to tighten his arms, trying to strangle the monster unconscious quickly.
At this time, Killer Croc heard the monster suddenly begin to swell up. He could only barely hold the monster's arms and finally couldn't continue the naked choke. He also couldn't fix himself by wrapping his legs around the monster. He could only lie on the monster's back and watch as "it" extended from its originally smooth back the terrifying plates and bone spurs like a stegosaurus.
The monster instantly swelled to a gigantic size, crouching on its knees in the vast sewer opening. Without the sewer backdrop and its terrifying appearance, the scene looked as comical as a child hiding in a closet. It grasped Killer Croc's arm with two fingers and lifted him up to its face like a bug, keeping a distance that allowed it to meet Croc's gaze without being struck.
Just as Killer Croc was thinking of a countermeasure, "it" actually spoke in human language, and the voice was so rough that it seemed to be mixed with gravel: "Don't be so excited, I'm helping you."
Killer Croc's first reaction wasn't even "I don't need help," but rather, "You can actually talk?!"
He was escaping from the sewer when he was attacked by this creature head-on. He didn't say a word the whole time. He thought it was another genetic experiment created by some eccentric scientist.
The monster sounded speechless and puzzled by the question: "If you can speak, why can't I?"
Being able to communicate is better than being a beast that only knows how to kill. Killer Croc then asked, "Since you can communicate, what exactly do you want to do with me?"
By now, it was obvious that the creature had no killing intentions towards him. If it had been able to transform itself into such a giant before, it wouldn't have been constantly beaten by him outside.
"I just need Baby Croc to take a nap," the dinosaur-like creature said, snapping its fingers at Killer Croc's head. With a dull thud, Killer Croc closed his eyes before the massive skull collapsed. After shaking Killer Croc a few times to make sure he wasn't reacting, Benjamin lowered him into the watertight sewer corridor.
It's the same reason. Killer Croc has been able to survive in Gotham for so long and still become famous, so he must have a lot of skills.
For example, pretending to be dizzy. Although his head was still buzzing from the blow just now, he was not yet unconscious. He even had room to think.
Killer Croc quickly realized that the size of the Magic Tyrannosaurus was restricted by the terrain, so when Benjamin let go of his hand and was about to click his watch to turn back into a human, Killer Croc suddenly opened his tightly closed eyes, turned over, jumped up and was about to run.
If Benjamin were the only one here, he would really run away, but that's not the case here.
Just as Killer Croc took a step forward, he heard a crisp "hiss" sound in front of him. It was the sound of a gas spray. He also felt a sharp pain on his neck. He staggered two steps and fell to the ground.
Because he left the stage too quickly, Killer Croc didn't see the magic boy in a cute skirt appear behind him, nor did he see the card with the word "time" written on it appear out of thin air in his hand.
Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and poked the dial icon on his chest, then changed back into human form: "Thank you, magic boy. If it weren't for you, he would have run away."
"You should also thank Batman. He provided the anesthetic injections and spray."
Li Hua turned the staff back into a necklace. Considering that the cards would not be used anymore, he put the [Time] card back into storage space No. 666, and no longer had to keep it in a place where it was within easy reach, such as his trouser pocket.
Li Hua also gave Benjamin, whose face was full of "look how awesome I am," a friendly reminder: "Batman looks furious about you suddenly leaving the operation without reporting."
Li Hua's words were not an exaggeration, because at this moment, behind Li Hua was Batman, who was walking aggressively. After confirming that Killer Croc was completely dizzy, he cast his sharp "Batman's disapproving look" at Benjamin and took a deep breath.
Benjamin, who had plenty of experience with being scolded, knew he was about to be scolded when he saw Batman pursing his lips and taking a deep breath. So, before Batman could even utter the first letter of his name, he raised his hands and said, "I know you're angry, but wait a minute, I have a reason. Give me a minute to explain!"
Benjamin had said so, so Batman couldn't just ignore it. Even if Benjamin hadn't said it, he would have asked it himself, trying to figure out the logic running through the boy's head so he could adjust his actions. "Go ahead."
Benjamin: "In my hometown, a species of aliens called 'Evolved Humans' have attacked Earth. They use a type of alien facehugger to attack humans. The attacked people will have their genes modified and transformed into 'half-human beasts' who obey the Evolved Humans' orders and become their slaves."
Batman: "I don't see how this relates to your reckless actions against Killer Croc today."
He couldn't possibly be mistaking Killer Croc for a 'half-human' or 'evolved human', right? Killer Croc is a native Earthling, albeit with some atavistic issues. If that were the reason, then Benjamin's actions were not only reckless but also extreme, which was even more dangerous than simply reckless. He could go astray at any moment, turning his promising life into a precarious one. He urgently needed a mindset correction.
"Don't worry, I'll get to it soon." Benjamin said, "I've been thinking about how to turn those half-human beasts back into humans, and that's when I suddenly thought of this."
"The Omnitrix optimizes genes, ensures that alien genes can fully integrate with mine, and protects the integrity of my human genes, so it must have the ability to repair genes. So I wonder if I can use the Omnitrix's ability to modify DNA to repair damaged DNA in other people?"
Benjamin said as he walked to the unconscious Killer Croc and placed his left hand wearing the Omnitrix on Killer Croc's head. As he did this, the Omnitrix began to glow green.
"But it's not that easy to find genetic mutations, so this hypothesis has never been proven. So when I heard that Killer Croc had a genetic atavism, I wanted to see if my theory would work."
A green light flashed, and the hideous green scaled monster disappeared from where Killer Croc was lying, and was replaced by an unconscious African-American man.
Batman squatted down and turned the man over to check. Seeing that there were no claws on his fingers, no scales on his skin, no sharp teeth in his mouth, and no nictitating membranes in his eyes, he knew that "Killer Croc" was no longer there.
The person who stayed here now was "Welen Jones".
