Speed Is King

Elliot tossed the enhanced Mutated Gojira beast core to Frosty as well.

"Endure the pain. You'll power up magnificently after this." Elliot told her.

"Do not worry about me, Master." Frosty said coolly as she swallowed the beast core.

"Kaijins, make sure you protect Frosty, alright?" Elliot looked at the six Kaijins. Of all his tamed beasts, he had spent the least amount of time with the Kaijins, and felt the least amount of emotions towards them.

He was happy to place them under Frosty's control. And as their Bloodline Ancestor, Frosty had complete control over them.

All six Armored Kaijins nodded wordlessly and immediately sat down near Frosty.

"Red." Elliot said as he turned to his Wind Apostle. "Don't say anything!"

"Huh?" Red squawked in confusion.

"Good job. I will be depending on you in the future to create armor and weapons for all of us." Elliot said.

"Of course! You can depend on me. I will make sure that I produce the best, most powerful, most beautiful and most amazing armor and weapons for all of you! Especially you, pip. You can look forward to having armor that would rival even the God Kings of the Earth! You will be the handsomest, coole-"

"Okay, okay I get it. I really need to have a mute function for you." Elliot grumbled lightly as he interrupted Red's barrage. "THANK YOU and now please remain silent."

"Sigh. Nobody truly appreciates me and my words. Fine." Red sighed. "When oh when will I ever meet someone who understands me and loves to listen to me…"

"Rom and Aldera." Elliot ignored Red and continued. "We'll be depending on you two to lead us in the next battle."

"I will take the lead against the Belcher." Rom replied. "But let Aldera stay back as support."

"Of course." Elliot agreed readily.

Whatever happened, Aldera and her pup had to survive the next fight. Elliot was already salivating over Kai's Specter Aura skill and couldn't wait to make him an Apostle!

"All of you, rest up. Once Rex and Frosty are done with their evolutions, we will attack." Elliot ordered them. "Wu Kong, stand by for summons.

Remember, our goal is to disable the big Belcher and kill everything else. If we had to kill the Big Belcher, make sure you don't kill the other Belcher. I want one of the Belchers alive at the end of the battle!"

"Yes Master." A chorus of voices responded to him.

When Elliot finally led his beasts out of the forest to attack the Belchers and Bangtols, almost every single viewer had their eyes firmly glued on him.

In the Diamond VIP room, the atmosphere was electric and the newcomers were being updated by the old timers on Elliot's impressive list of achievements.

"Would you look at that monkey! What a magnificent looking beast! Is he truly Elliot's tamed beast?"

"It's true. Elliot that lucky bastard actually found and tamed an Elemental Spitter! That Element Spitter crafted that monkey's armor and weapons."

"The monkey is cool and all, but it's nothing compared to his white dragon. How on earth did he get his hands on a damned white dragon?"

"It's not a white dragon. It's an Archaic Kaijin. Apparently one of the Armored Kaijin eggs he found had a mutation that reverted it back to its ancestral bloodline. Ridiculous, if you ask me."

"One, two, three, four, five, six,... fifteen tamed beasts at the Elite level and above? On the second night of the Apocalypse? Is he cheating?"

"He didn't cheat. We witnessed his growth every single step of the way. He's just… lucky."

"Yeah, it's like Lady Luck and the God of Fortune got married and had a baby."

Slightly removed from the main crowd, Jessica Sands looked at Elliot on her own screen with a distinct measure of pride. "That's our boy they are talking about!" She said to Monkey King.

"Hahaha. You're talking as though he's the child you had with Wu Kong!" Jul'Taras couldn't help but laugh at Jessica.

"Hey! We are the only two original bettors on him. I have a hundred-to-one odds on him winning this entire game! Of course I am proud of him." Jessica Sands retorted back. "In fact, I am more proud of myself for having such a good eye."

"Look, he's starting. As expected, his summoned hawks are baiting the Bangtols. I doubt they could last very long. Ah, excellent formation! All three hawks are dead, but his wolves have gained the attention of a Bangtol without alerting the Belchers." Monkey began a running commentary of the fight. "It's a perfect start!"

"Good. Those two Bangtols are so… Oh wow. They're dead." Jul'Taras was taken slightly by surprise at the speed at which Elliot destroyed the two Bangtols.

"Yikes. Two King Level Bangtols dead just like that? That's fast! What was that he shot out? Azure Lightning Blast? It's so powerful! And his dragon's greenish Ice Beam is extremely powerful too! Just two of those beams are enough to take down one Bangtol! Wonderful!" Jessica Sands gushed.

"What are they doing? Why are they retreating instead of pressing the attack?" Jul'Taras frowned lightly.

"Look. One of the Belchers is looking in their direction. He must have heard something. Elliot is repositioning so that he could maintain his element of surprise. He seems determined to take out the Bangtols before he engages the Belchers." Monkey King explained.

"Ohhh. I see. He's a smart one. The element of surprise truly is a game changer and must be maintained at all costs." Jul'Taras nodded in approval.

"It's probably his Lightning Apostle the Monkey who's directing the battle. But yes, it requires great wisdom to recognize strength in his subordinates and great humility to relinquish command to him. He is a true leader." Monkey King said admiringly.

"He's outgrowing the System you gave him really quickly. At this rate, it wouldn't be long until he overtakes us in power." Jul'Taras glanced at Monkey King as she said that.
