The Swamp Giant Crocodile was engulfed in a terrifying flame as it charged toward the rear of the Silver Spider swarm.
This flame was born from the burning of both his soul and life force—a desperate and irreversible act. Once the flame extinguished, so too would his existence.
The process was absolute, more extreme than the Silver Moon Wolf God's earlier sacrifice of its divine authority. While the wolf god, as a high-ranking divine entity, gained far greater power from such a sacrifice, the Swamp Giant Crocodile had still unleashed a power capable of challenging gods.
The Silver Spiders, as though realizing the crocodile's intent, scrambled frantically to halt his advance.
A countless swarm of spiders surged forward, resembling a vast, silvery-white ocean, attempting to drown the crocodile beneath their sheer numbers.
