The thick tentacle was used as a whip by the Earl monster, instantly lashing out at Ben.
Faced with this sudden attack, Ben seemed unable to dodge and could only cross his arms in front of his chest, adopting a defensive posture to avoid injury.
Actually, he felt the threat wasn't significant, so he deliberately chose not to evade, wanting to take a hit head-on to test the monster's strength.
"Bang!"
The monster's tentacle struck Ben's arms squarely.
A massive impact force came!
Ben's body instantly retreated, sliding more than ten meters across the ground, his feet plowing two deep trenches before he finally stopped.
Seeing this, Joe Root, Hales, and the others tensed up.
After all, the outcome of Ben's battle would determine their survival.
Only Clara's pretty face showed concern…
As for Ben himself, after lowering his arms, he revealed a confident grin!
Through that brief exchange, he finally gauged the Earl's true strength.
This monster, whether in speed or power, was inferior to him!
That whip just now had been the Earl's full-strength attack.
Yet, it only made Ben's arms a little sore—it couldn't break his defense at all.
Since that was the case…
Then why waste any more time?
"Is that all you've got?"
Ben cracked his knuckles, making them creak, and said fiercely, "If you don't have any other tricks, tonight is your death date!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he exploded in place!
"Boom!"
A deafening sound rang out.
It was the ground cracking beneath Ben's feet as he launched himself forward.
The bluestone pavement within a five-meter radius completely shattered!
And Ben himself, like a lightning bolt, dashed straight at the Earl monster.
"Bang!"
A heavy kick landed squarely on the Earl's chest.
The monster's massive body was instantly sent flying, soaring through the air like a cannonball.
It flew a full hundred meters before crashing into a pile of smaller monsters.
But Ben didn't stop there.
Now that he had confirmed that the Earl was weaker than him, he had no reason to drag this out.
Besides, he didn't want to give the monster any chance to reveal a hidden trump card that could turn the tide.
"Thump!"
Ben leaped high into the air.
His jump reached a staggering height—at least thirty meters—almost as if he could fly.
Another deep pit formed where he had just stood!
When he landed, he was right next to the Earl.
Without hesitation, he grabbed one of the monster's feet and…
Started swinging it like a hammer!
(For reference, imagine Hulk smashing Loki!)
"Thump! Thump! Thump!"
The Earl, with its massive body and heavy armor, probably weighed over five hundred pounds.
But in Ben's hands, it was like a mere toy.
He swung the Earl back and forth, slamming it repeatedly into the ground.
The muffled thunder-like sounds of impact echoed throughout the battlefield.
The ground itself couldn't withstand the force and was smashed into large craters, with gravel flying everywhere.
The sheer brutality of the scene was overwhelming!
Joe Root, Hales, and the North American warriors stood there, completely dumbfounded…
Good heavens!
They thought they were facing a powerful boss, but was that really the case?
A moment ago, they had been convinced this battle was a death sentence.
How had it suddenly turned into an overwhelming one-sided slaughter?
Looking at Ben demolishing the Earl monster, they started wondering—who was the real boss here?
…
Not only were Hales and the others stunned, but even the Earl monster itself was left in shock.
It had no power to resist when Ben truly unleashed his strength.
Even with its so-called immortal body, it couldn't withstand such relentless brutality!
Realizing this, the Earl had only one option left…
"Roar!"
A desperate, piercing cry erupted from its throat.
Hearing the call, the surrounding monsters stirred restlessly.
The first to respond was the giant horse monster.
"Hee hee!"
Seeing its master getting beaten so mercilessly, the enormous horse neighed and charged at Ben.
This creature was even larger than the Earl, and with its heavy armor, it weighed well over a thousand pounds!
"Ben, watch out!"
Clara's voice rang out, filled with urgency.
The others could only watch helplessly as the giant horse rapidly closed the distance.
They were too far away to help in time.
The monstrous steed lowered its head, using the metal spikes on its helmet to impale Ben!
Ben, who was enjoying himself, suddenly looked annoyed at being interrupted.
His face twisted with irritation.
"Get lost!"
Ben tossed the Earl aside and swung his arm—
Pa!
Like thunder crashing to the ground!
His slap landed squarely on the horse's head.
The impact was so great that it directly snapped the creature's neck, sending its head flying like a ball.
Its massive body collapsed, sliding across the ground and kicking up a storm of dust.
…
One slap!
Just one slap, and the giant horse was dead.
Seeing this, Hales and the others felt their scalps tingle with fear.
It was simply too terrifying!
Joe Root, in particular, was now shaking.
After all, hadn't he once called Ben's talent "trash"?
If such an unmatched powerhouse had a "trash" talent…
Then what was Joe Root?
A maggot in the toilet?
…
At that moment, Ben didn't care about shocking anyone.
After all, once they left this place, everyone would lose their memories anyway.
Right now, all he wanted was to enjoy himself.
The giant horse's interference had forced him to release the Earl, giving the monster a brief moment to recover.
Though this "breather" had come at the cost of its beloved steed…
Still, the Earl finally had a chance to fight back.
"Huff!"
The sound of something slicing through the air rang out—
The Earl's tentacle attack!
Ben sidestepped, but the tentacle twisted midair, following him like a shadow, coiling tightly around him.
In an instant, Ben was wrapped up, immobilized.
This was undoubtedly the Earl's best opportunity to counterattack!
But then…
Something unexpected happened.
Instead of attacking, the Earl monster broke off its own tentacle—
And ran away!
Yes!
This cowardly beast turned and fled!!
Ben was simply too terrifying!
The Earl swore on its monstrous life—it had never encountered such a horrifying human before!
While running, it commanded its underlings to surround Ben, buying itself time.
And its destination?
The city.
Clearly, it had a hidden trump card there.
Seeing this, Ben's face darkened with anger!
He hadn't had enough fun yet!
How dare this thing try to escape?
You think you can act tough and then just run away?
There's no such thing!
The next moment—
Ben's expression turned savage.
With a sudden burst of strength, he flexed his arms!
"Bang!"
The thick tentacles wrapped around him instantly snapped, falling to the ground in pieces.
