The situation was now out of Haru's control; only by seeking help from their gods could they have a chance to survive.
The connection with the gods was very short; in the blink of an eye, the gods already knew what had happened here.
The gods were furious, and Haru did not follow their instructions to infect all Haru with Protozoan spores.
If you mess things up, you have to hand the mess over to their gods to clean up, and nobody would be in a good mood.
However, these gods who want to be reborn in this world can't afford to turn against Haru right now; they have to wait until Harasugi has conquered most of the world.
Although the gods were angry at this moment, they still showed their tolerance for the sake of the greater good.
Since the other Haru were only recently infected, it's too late to wait for them to develop.
In order to quickly increase combat power, this time we have no choice but to resort to short-sighted methods.
Thanks to this incredible method, Haru's cells will divide rapidly, almost like a virus, in a short period of time. The rate of growth and change is estimated to be several times faster than the previous batch of Haru.
This means that Haru's body will suffer several times more pain than his previous companions, and this time Haru's spirit will directly erode their consciousness and take over these modified bodies.
Although the Haru leader was unwilling at this moment, he had no choice but to accept it, as the infected Haru had already begun to change.
Under the control of those mysterious gods, Haru did not experience the uncontrollable hunger he had before. However, he still needed to eat, and even more food than before.
The corpses of Haru on the ground are the best food source, and the first thing to be strengthened is the structure of Haru's teeth and mouth.
Haru's gods no longer cared about aesthetics; efficiency was all they wanted. Haru's mouth began to evolve at a visible rate, and before long, Haru had become a monster beyond recognition.
They look more like alien species from an alien world, and there is no trace of Haru's original appearance.
It's unclear what kind of alien beast's genes this is, but Haru's head is at least twice as big as before, and its short, powerful mouth has grown hard molars like those of a hyena, capable of easily crushing bones.
Its body hair began to fall out, and its surface skin began to turn black and harden, growing a hard exoskeleton like that of a beetle.
Haru's hands also began to harden, his fingers gradually becoming hard and long, eventually turning into five claws like eagle claws.
This time, Haru's size did not increase as much as before. Instead, it became even more exaggerated in a short period of time. At this moment, it was no longer recognizable as Haru. It was completely an alien creature with a height of about two meters.
If Chief Haru hadn't witnessed it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that such a method existed in the world, capable of transforming a creature so drastically in such a short time.
However, these enhanced second-generation Haru all exuded a strong murderous aura, and their combat power was definitely not comparable to the previous giant Haru.
To some extent, those mantis-like energy beings that were extinct in higher dimensions have now been reborn in Haru's body.
However, this body is far too different from his insect-like body, and there are many aspects that cannot be perfectly compatible.
Therefore, the control time of these bodies will become unstable, and Haru's consciousness still has a chance to return to his own body.
Regardless of the circumstances, these high-energy organisms are foreign entities to the body and should, in principle, be rejected. It was mainly through the bridge of prehistoric bacteria that these high-energy entities had the opportunity to turn the tables.
Now, Chief Haru feels completely unfamiliar with these subordinates. He can now communicate with these former subordinates, now gods, directly through brainwaves without speaking.
Chief Haru had mixed feelings, but now was not the time to consider that issue.
The remaining spores were secretly poured into the fire by the Haru leader to be destroyed. His explanation to the gods was that the fire had burned the stored spores, and there were only enough left for these few dozen Haru.
Chief Haru believed that no matter what, one's fate should never be completely in the hands of others.
The dozens of modified Haru had emerged from the sea of fire, their target clear: their tribesmen who were firing tactical flashlights in their direction.
At that moment, all the flashlight beams shone on this side, and the strange black creature that suddenly darted out startled everyone.
These creatures, unlike Haru, were exceptionally agile, and a volley of crossbow bolts was immediately fired at the attacking creatures.
Before the crossbow bolts could even penetrate, Haru's smooth exoskeleton caused them to slide to one side, making it impossible for them to cause any real damage.
Everyone was terrified at the sight. What kind of monsters were these? The crossbow bolts had no effect on them at all.
At that moment, a modified Haru, baring its fangs and claws, was about to swat down at my face with its sharp claws.
I decisively abandoned the crossbow and picked up the gun. The hand speed I had honed over the months came in handy at this moment, and I pulled the hammer and the trigger almost simultaneously.
"Bang!"
Just then, a deafening sound rang out in the night sky, and a streak of orange-red fire shot out from the dark muzzle of the gun.
Since the crossbow bolts can't penetrate it, let's see if my shotgun can!
In an instant, Naharu was sent flying backward by the powerful inertia, a shocking hole in his chest still steaming, and the next moment Naharu was motionless.
Indeed, all fear stems from insufficient firepower; in the face of firearms, carbon-based life forms are essentially equal.
Several shots were fired in succession, and all the Haru running at the front were killed.
"What are you waiting for? Use your knife! These Haru are obviously not simple; our weapons will have little chance of harming them."
At that moment, everyone reacted to my shout and drew their swords to engage Haru in close combat.
These Haru were clearly extraordinary from the moment they clashed. They were much faster than the previous Haru, and their claws and mouths were incredibly powerful; being injured by either of them could be fatal.
The steep terrain is not suitable for fighting. Both Haru and our tribesmen must watch their step at all times, as they may accidentally slip and fall.
Seeing this, I had an idea. Now that it's dark, the lights would be extremely glaring. If we kept shining a flashlight into the eyes of these Haru, we might be able to temporarily blind them.
If their eyes are briefly blinded, we will have the opportunity to insert a knife into the seams of Haru's exoskeleton, which are Haru's weak points.
