The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 925: The Five Uncles Vs The Crocodile King (3)

Killing is simple.

One just has to find the right moment to strike a fatal point on a person or beast. Most go for the neck, others target the heart, and the most powerful ones aim for the head.

Either way, the endgame is to end the battle with your life intact while the opponent is not. At the right moment, that can be achieved.

However, in moments when one has to subdue the target, it becomes a completely different matter. This time, instead of going for the kill, one has to start thinking of ways to remain alive while finding ways to knock out their target.

And if the target is a Level 4 Tier 12 beast, then the situation becomes dire.

Klaus’s uncles found themselves in this situation.

Their target is dangerous.

Of course, they managed to win the first round, injuring it, exhausting it, and wearing down its stamina. However, it is still a dangerous target.

And now that it was cornered, there was no telling what it would do to survive. So, in situations like that, the uncles would have to go for the kill.

However, instead of doing that, they now have to adapt to the battle and capture the target alive by rendering it ineffective.

That is a different kind of danger.

But they are doing this for their brat, who wanted to build an army that the heavens will shudder when unleashed. His aim was to build a Celestial beast army where every last beast was capable of destroying galaxies.

So they can’t kill this crocodile because it has the means of becoming a Drak, a Dragon, and then a Celestial existence.

“Mark, execute Plan Wiggle and capture.”

Uncle Ziggy commanded, and Uncle Mark nodded. He flew into the air and deactivated the shield deadlock.

He charged at the Crocodile King, who swiped its tail, aiming to slam Uncle Mark away. However, an axe came from the side, causing it to split its focus.

Uncle Xian, who was charging at the Crocodile King, halted like he did before. However, this time, the Crocodile King didn’t let him back off. Of course, that was Uncle Xian’s tactic.

It charged at him and used its innate domain, which had something to do with ice, to freeze the ground Uncle Xian stood on, limiting his steps.

However, a fist landed on the Crocodile King’s face just as it was aiming to pierce through Uncle Xian’s chest.

“Bitch, please. My ice is better and more powerful than yours,” Uncle Jojo blew air from his fist, moving back just as Uncle James Boomerang arrived, aiming right at the tail of the Crocodile King.

It swiped forward and slammed its long metallic tail at the boomerang, creating a powerful shockwave.

“Behind, you—”

However, before the Crocodile King could completely push back the flaming boomerang, Uncle Mark appeared behind it and slammed his shield with full force, sending the Crocodile King flying back several meters.

“Lightning Net Formation Bullets.” Right when the Crocodile King landed on the ground, Uncle Ziggy finally made his move.

He fired 14 powerful lightning bullets toward the Crocodile King, and just when they were about to land on it, they stopped and spread out, creating a net of lightning around it.

“Metal Earth Shield Barrier.”

Uncle Mark threw his shield up and formed a seal, raining 12 giant shields, each towering about 14 meters, around the lightning net.

This further created a barrier around the neck, making the encirclement much tighter.

“Falling Fist.”

Then thunder rocked the sky, and a large metallic fist glowing purple appeared through the clouds, falling onto the shield barrier and the lightning net.

The fist was heavy and powerful, so the moment it appeared in the sky, it started creating pressure that forced the Crocodile King to its knees.

“James, be ready, the final part is almost here—”

Right as Uncle Ziggy spoke, a powerful roar came from within the shield barrier and the lightning net, announcing that the Crocodile King had taken its beast form.

The barrier expanded, and the net began to crack—or more accurately, break or tear. This shows that just taking its best form was enough to widen the defenses prepared around it.

A 100-meter-tall body of the crocodile, coated entirely in a rather hard and, judging by the shine, metallic carapace, appeared within the two barriers, and a powerful aura fell on everyone.

However, instead of sweating and cursing, the five uncles smiled. This was the moment they’d been waiting for.

Uncle James flew into the air and hovered beside the giant fist unleashed by Uncle Jojo.

His boomerang appeared in his hand, and with a quick movement that lasted only two seconds, he executed some swings that, after he was done, made five runes appear in the air.

Uncle James gestured up, and his boomerang flew into the air and hovered a few meters above his head.

“Space Emergence Art: First Art—Space Lock.”

The moment he uttered these words, the first rune moved and entered the boomerang.

Nothing visible happened, but the Crocodile King felt his surroundings locked, meaning the teleport skill that it was preparing to activate was canceled.

“Second Art—Space Suppression.”

The rune entered the boomerang, and the pressure falling on the Crocodile King became much heavier. Its body slammed to the ground, creating a powerful shockwave.

It was as if the entire moon had fallen on it, causing it to lie flat on the ground.

“Third Art—Space Binding.”

Invisible bindings latched onto the body of the Crocodile King, creating a powerful bind that couldn’t be broken.

No matter how powerful the crocodile king was, with the space lock activated and space suppression pinning it down, unless its understanding of the space law was higher than Uncle James’s, it wouldn’t be able to wiggle its way out of this.

“Ziggy, it is done.”

With the Crocodile King completely handled, there was no need to use the last two Arts. Doing so might accidentally kill it, which, in this battle, killing was what they were trying to avoid.

“Knock Out lightning Bullets.”

Barrages rang out as Uncle Ziggy rained down non-lethal bullets on the Crocodile King. He was aiming to knock it out, so he was using non-lethal bullets.

And it worked. After about two minutes, the Crocodile King was knocked out, its body twitching. After confirming it was out for real, they deactivated their skills.

“That went better than I expected,” Uncle Jojo said, walking toward the knocked-out body of the Crocodile King.

“It indeed went well; however, this was possible because of the necklaces Klaus gave us. Had we been under the direct influence of its innate domain, this would have been much more dangerous.” Uncle Ziggy touched the necklace hanging around his neck.

Klaus used his understanding of the innate domain to create a counter of the innate domains for them before leaving for his vacation.

He knew they would be facing Tier 12 beings, so he used the Paragon Forge to create the necklaces for them.

Of course, it wasn’t a 100% fix, but at least it addressed 70% of the innate domain’s influence on them, making it an invaluable item.

“I guess you are right. But since we managed to handle our targets, we can only be happy.” Uncle Xian set his axe down and then retrieved a thin talisman, also created by Klaus.

It was a teleportation talisman connected to the Multi-dimensional Cube.

The moment he slapped it on the side of the passed-out Crocodile King, its body glowed golden, then it vanished into a cube.

The moment it woke up, Skar would be waiting with the cure and would officially add it to the beast army.
