Then in another night vision, I saw a fourth beast that was absolutely terrifying — way stronger than anything I'd seen before. This thing had massive iron teeth and just destroyed everything in its path, crushing whatever was left under its feet. It was completely different from the other beasts, and it had ten horns sticking out of it.
