Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest Chapter 1922: Saving Frank! Escaping!

The colossal Jurassic Rex unleashed a deafening roar, its enormous limbs thrashing as it shredded the serpent’s countless heads. Yet, for every head it severed, more sprouted, their gaping maws expelling a noxious, poisonous mist imbued with curses that sapped his strength, weakening him further.

Recognition dawned upon everyone that the fearsome Yamata-no-Orochi sided with their enemy. Nodding in agreement, they descended into the Fragmented Domain, mounting the giant three-headed dragon, Obsidian, and hurtled towards Frank.

Another roar erupted from Jurassic Rex as its razor-sharp claws raked across Obsidian, nearly tearing the dragon asunder. It was only the intervention of the eight-headed serpent that saved them—Yamata-no-Orochi coiled its elongated necks around the dinosaur’s arms, restraining it and allowing the children a narrow escape from impending doom.

Enraged, Jurassic Rex plunged its jaws into the entirety of Yamata-no-Orochi’s form, rending it apart. Elena and the others, in a state of panic, finally reached Frank. They watched in sheer horror as the mighty serpent began to disintegrate, its form dissolving into fine dust.

"Oh no!" Elena cried out.

"Did he die?!" Harumi questioned.

"A noble sacrifice!" Yasuke declared. "Now grab Frank and let's get out of here—quickly!"

Harumi swiftly moved, hoisting Frank and swiftly carrying him onto Obsidian’s back just as Jurassic Rex lunged directly at them.

Its triumphant laughter echoed, but the meteor had already positioned itself directly overhead. Its immense gravitational pressure seared Obsidian's body, boiling the dragon until it began to melt, reverting back into black ink.

"No! Obsidian!"

They all slammed hard onto the ground as Obsidian imploded into fragments, its liquid essence cushioning their descent. However, there was no moment for celebration. The meteor loomed above—less than a minute remained before utter annihilation would claim them all.

"Obsidian!" Elena wailed, realizing her beloved dragon companion was lost.

"Elena, we must escape!" Monica shouted, pulling her away. "Anna, we need to fly—now!"

"Yeah!" Anna responded with desperate urgency.

They all scrambled onto the summoned beasts that Anna had conjured. With a swift activation of the Flying Beast Spell, the creatures ascended, soaring towards the exit.

Jurassic Rex surged forward, impacting the mountain and shattering it. Enormous debris rained down, completely sealing the entrance they had utilized.

As the dinosaur king reveled in its victory, a peculiar spectral mist started to ascend behind it. What remained of Yamata-no-Orochi was not mere ash—it had transmuted into a spiritual fog, rapidly coalescing into an entirely new manifestation.

Jurassic Rex let out a shriek as a colossal golden club impacted its heads, sending it hurtling backward. It crashed through three entire mountains, reducing them to rubble.

A new entity now occupied the space: a giant adorned with red skin, a bulbous belly, and a powerfully sculpted physique. Its grotesque visage featured sharp fangs and protruding tusks, its eyes burned with a golden luminescence, and its long white hair cascaded wildly. Most arresting of all were its extraordinarily long horns.

"What?!"

Everyone gazed in utter astonishment at the towering behemoth.

"Who is that?!" Erika inquired.

"W-Wasn’t Frank’s summon Orochi?!" Elena exclaimed.

"No... I was mistaken," Yasuke stated, his eyes wide with revelation. "That's... Shuten Doji! The King of all Oni!"

"Hurry up and get out of here, brats!" Shuten Doji bellowed. He pounded the mountain with his fists, then, as the meteor plunged earthward, hoisted his formidable arms, bracing against it with a strained grunt. "Nnnggh...! I can’t hold it for long!"

With no time for thanks, the group hurried through the newly opened passage and burst back into the museum.

Elena glanced back just in time to witness Shuten Doji being crushed beneath the meteor. A cataclysmic explosion followed instantaneously.

The blast erupted with violent force, propelling massive fragments of debris towards them amidst an endless expanse of roaring flames.

Elena's scream shattered the chaos. Anna channeled every iota of her Mana into her beasts. They merged in a dazzling flash, manifesting a colossal humanoid mecha. The mechanical giant swung its radiant rainbow sword, cleaving through the flames and debris to grant them precious seconds.

They flew with desperate speed until they finally reached the exit, bursting out of the museum as the inferno consumed everything in their wake, incinerating and obliterating the entire Moguro Sky Garden.

All the students stood in stunned silence, observing the once beautiful sky garden crumble into ruin beneath a billowing cloud of dense smoke.

"Oh fuck, how are we going to explain this now?" Erika muttered.

"Holy shit!" Matsuo screamed.

"Yeah, I know, but at least we’re alive— Matsuo?" Harumi asked, noticing his upward gaze filled with disbelief.

Matsuo, who rarely uttered profanities, was in this moment utterly dumbfounded.

Having survived a dinosaur onslaught and a battle against a heroic spirit, only to witness the catastrophic collapse of Moguro Sky Garden, something even more dire now awaited them.

A blood-red sky stretched above as a massive black gate ripped open, from which something profoundly sinister began to emerge.

"W-What the...? What in the world is that?!" Erika shrieked.

"This doesn't look good..." Elena murmured.

"Where are Elayne and the others?" Elena inquired urgently.

"My children!"

A voice they recognized suddenly echoed. Olivia, who had hurried back to rescue them, gazed in shock at the devastated garden. "You're safe! I was on my way to help, but the whole structure just imploded! What is happening?!"

"Are you seriously asking that with that abomination looming in the sky?!" Erika retorted.

"Huh? Ahhhh! What the fuck?!" Olivia exclaimed, her usual calm demeanor vanishing as she cursed loudly.

From the heavens, a terrifying roar, comprised of countless wailing souls, reverberated. Hundreds of enormous red eyes pierced down at them.

Tentacles, adorned with razor-sharp fangs, descended and whipped towards the group.

Anna issued a command to her merged familiar. In a flash, it morphed into a colossal, rainbow-hued mechanical phoenix and surged forward, desperately trying to evade the relentless pursuit of the tentacles.

"Teacher! What is even going on anymore?!" Erika yelled. "First, we're attacked by a Heroic Spirit that summons dinosaurs, and now this?!"
