Chapter 17: Witness the Power of the Stars
However, before Xing Tianyu could open his mouth to ask Narrator Jun for help, a sudden change occurred-
Slap-smack-smack-smack! A burst of clapping suddenly came from above everyone's heads. Then I saw countless stars in the sky converging into a figure, and then slowly falling from the sky. He was dressed in a white robe, solemn, with a majestic face, and walked with his hands in the air, full of force.
The three of them were all on guard, and when they saw this person's appearance, Lucifer couldn't help but let out an exclamation, "Lord Zeus!?" β
That's right, it was Zeus, or Zeus, possessed by the King of Nightmares.
"Mere mortals, but in the name of God, I have to say that you human beings are always able to surprise me with their arrogance and vanity." Zeus said sarcastically, in the blink of an eye, Zeus had already come to the three of them, "But I have to say, this is indeed the best shell I have ever harvested," the Nightmare King said that his body suddenly exuded a strong aura, which made the three of them startled at the same time, as the last president of the Summoner Council, Zeus's strength can be described as unfathomable, without making a move, just the powerful momentum exuded is already so amazing, but even so, he is still controlled by the King of Nightmares.
This made the three of them angry and somewhat uneasy at the same time.
"Why don't you come out and meet us bastards in person!" Sylvia was the first to snort coldly.
Xing Tianyu's heart moved, the previous elders would come here and be teleported to all corners of the underground ancient city, it stands to reason that this kind of thing, the Nightmare King must not be able to bypass them, but the Nightmare King only sent the puppets and essentia monsters under his control to chase and kill, but he had no intention of making a move, this situation is really a bit strange.
And this time, he fell and the rescue team entered this ancient city, and the Nightmare King still didn't make a move, and even if he led everyone to invade its core area, it still didn't take action himself, which is a bit too much to say.
Reality is not a game, it is impossible that he has to wait until himself and others to destroy all the puppets under his command one by one, and the only explanation is that the Nightmare King can't wake up easily for some reason, and it must stay asleep, so he can only send these men to fight.
In view of the fact that Zeus is now only a puppet, that is, as long as Zeus is defeated, he can be forced to submit, so although the current situation is not clear and seems to be full of crises, in fact, there has been a turnaround.
This may be the opportunity to wait for someone else.
With his mind racing, Xing Tianyu had already thought a lot in an instant, but Zeus, who was possessed by the King of Nightmares, still had a sneer on his face.
"You idiots don't need me to do it personally, just these puppets under my control are enough to deal with you."
"Are you sure it's not because you're not waking up right now? Or are you just scared? I know, is your body too weak to show up at all, probably because you're afraid of being killed by us? Lucifer began to agitate.
Sylvia laughed: "Maybe it's because she's too ugly, I'm embarrassed to come out to meet people." β
However, these ridicules had no effect.
Zeus remained indifferent, "I am a Sakatum who has lived for millions of years, I have gained the wisdom and memories of the psychic omniscient, your ridiculous mind games are useless to me, but since you are so desperate to meet me, I will give you a chance, come with me a 'Makharu' Let's have a duel in the way of summoners, if you can defeat my puppet, maybe I will meet you." β
"Makaharu? What the hell is that? β
"Makaharu is a ritual, a duel ritual that only exists between summoners, when I was a Sakadum, I often performed this ritual with other summoners, but I guess you human summoners didn't learn these when you were secretly learning summoning, the way of this ritual is very simple, first you choose a duelist, the two of us will enter a separate space, share a summoning circle, this summoning circle will consume the spiritual power of the two of us, Therefore, it will erase the gap in our strength.
Then we take turns summoning, we can summon anything from any world, we have to control and enslave those powerful creatures from the other world to fight, whether or not we can control the summoned otherworldly creatures depends entirely on our skill - and a little luck, this is the ultimate test of summoning and otherworldly knowledge, how about it, dare you have a duel with me? β
Xing Tianyu said in his heart, how does this sound like a card game? Lao Tzu doesn't have that leisure.
The Nightmare King added, "Considering that your strength is too weak, I can let the three of you go together." β
As Zeus spoke, a huge summoning array suddenly appeared under everyone's feet, this summoning array Xing Tianyu had never seen before, and its pattern was far more complex than he knew.
"As long as you stand in the summoning position of this circle, our duel can begin, and as long as you can defeat me in this Makaharu, I will reveal my true identity as you wish, and I swear by the honor of the Sakadum."
The Nightmare King's voice was half persuasive, half provocative.
Xing Tianyu glanced at Lucifer and then at Sylvia, Lucifer's face was a little hesitant, but Sylvia shook his head.
"There's no need to be so troublesome, we just need to kill you and shatter this space, and you'll naturally have to show up, right?"
"You can try, but you must not break the space in front of you, this is a powerful magic from the memories of the primordial old gods, a barrier made of shards of space and time, and your poor power cannot break it."
Lucifer listened, but hesitated a little: "Captain, I think it's better to have a makaharu with them." β
Xing Tianyu also hesitated in his heart, Sylvia and Lucifer have different choices, so which one should they choose.
After hesitating for a moment, Xing Tianyu still decided to ask the narrator what he meant.
However, before he could speak, Narrator Jun seemed to have sensed it and took the lead in speaking.
[It's time to make a final decision, whether to go to war directly with the Nightmare King's puppet and shatter the space in front of him in a violent way, or have a makaharu with the Nightmare King's puppet and use a traditional ritual between summoners to divide the winner, Xing Tianyu must choose between the two, and this choice will directly determine whether they can defeat the Nightmare King, or die here, as for the outcome, no one knows. γ
"Damn, if you say it, you don't say it."
Sylvia's side couldn't wait, and directly dried a bottle of arcane essence, "Don't listen to that bullshit narrator!" "Take out the staff and lift it hard, and a huge magic array with complex patterns instantly appears under your feet, Elemental Storm!
In an instant, the huge missiles condensed by flames, lightning, ice, and various elemental energies continued to condense around her, and continued to fly towards Zeus, crashing into the psionic shield on his body, constantly exploding, bursting out with brilliant light.
Zeus's face sank, "Since you have chosen soβthen as you wish!" β
His psionic energy continued to surge, replenishing the psionic shield consumed by the magic, and at the same time slowly flew into the sky, his hands raised high, "Then let's face the power of the stars!" β
The stars in the surrounding sky spun as if they were alive. The white light was bright and dazzling, and starlight fell from the sky, all of which were impact rays composed of psionic energy, each containing terrifying destructive power.
Sylvia raised her staff, and the magic shield protected all three of them, and the arcane energy in her body was about to overflow at this time, making it as easy as breathing to cast her magic.
Reflection Mirror!
In the sky above her head, the arcane energy instantly formed dozens of mirrors of different sizes, and the mages of the Atlantean world could generally only summon one reflecting magic mirror at a time, reflecting the magic flying in one direction, but Sylvia, with the blessing of the arcane essence, directly surrounded herself with the reflection magic mirror.
Those psionic starlights fell on the reflection mirror, reflecting in all directions, and Zeus was overflowing with spiritual light in an instant.
"The power of the stars, listen to me!" A ball of light suddenly appeared in his hand, and all the psionic starlight was absorbed by the ball of light, leaving only a deep darkness around, and the ball of light grew bigger and bigger, like a giant sun, hanging high in the pitch-black space, and with a wave of Zeus's hand, the giant sun fell suddenly.
This time it's not like the Mirror can bounce back.
Sylvia was unhurried, she raised her staff again, and the arcane energy instantly condensed, forming an arcane ray thinner than a needle, which shot out and ran through the giant sun.
With a bang, the giant sun composed of psionic energy lost its structural stability and suddenly exploded, setting off a huge psionic storm at the same time.
Xing Tianyu hurriedly propped up the psionic shield and cooperated with Sivia to protect the three of them in this psionic storm.
This psionic storm was frantically venting energy, and the three of them were like a reef in a tsunami, seemingly precarious, but they couldn't hold on.
Zeus stood in the air, as if he didn't care about the raging psionic energy around him.
"It's useless, your arcane energy is indeed powerful, but unfortunately, it is still too far behind the power I have, my power is almost infinite, give up mortals, give up the futile struggle."
"Hold on, wait for me to find someone to help!" As Lucifer spoke, a huge summoning circle suddenly appeared under his feet.
Then he began to chant the summoning incantation.
"A powerful presence from the world of Gozares.
Ancient contracts, ancestral bloodγγγγγγγ
In the name of the blood of my Ressatra demonsγγγγγγγγ β
A summoning spell was quickly pronounced in Lucifer's mouth, and it was clear that he was familiar with it.
The summoning circle under his feet instantly began to rotate, and the power of psionic energy converged into a huge vortex, and in the depths of that vortex, the red light from hell flickered faintly.
"Who is calling me, who is awakening me!" A terrible voice came from the whirlpool, echoing in the space, like a magic sound from hell, and the sound alone had already shaken the entire space.
A huge head with two curved horns slowly rose from the summoning circle, red skin, dark scales, huge wings, and huge size, all indicating that this was a powerful demon from the world of Gousareth.
"Grandpa, help! I would like to dedicate this world to you! Lucifer let out a cry for help.
The giant demon waved its arms and massive wings as if to tear the space apart, struggling to reach out of his massive body.
Zeus over there was not afraid.
He also began to chant the summoning incantation.
"An ancient being from the Abyss!"
"The ancient will, the filthy soul, the offspring of the evil godsγγγγγγ
It was also a skillful spell, and a summoning circle appeared at the feet of Zeus.
An even greater vortex of psionic energy appeared, and from the huge vortex came a huge mouth that could not be described in words, the monster's large mouth occupied two-thirds of its body, layers of deep and sharp teeth were densely packed in the mouth, and a short and thick body supported the huge mouth, and the scattered and disproportionate limbs were distributed around it. If the demon lord summoned by Lucifer is terrifying, then this strangeness in front of him can only be described as terrifying.
The summoning circle was right next to Lucifer's summoning circle, and the monster bit the demon lord on the shoulder.
I don't know what its mouth is made of, but the demon's scaly body was bitten through at once, and the demon's blood continued to flow out like magma.
The great demon struggled and tore at it, but it couldn't break free at all.
Seeing that the monster's big mouth bit deeper and deeper, gradually devouring one-third of his body, the huge demon couldn't care about the image and force.
"Send me back, send me back, hurry up and remove the summoning circle from your unfilial son!"
The demon roared, struggling to retreat, Lucifer's face turned pale, but he refused to let go, supporting the summoning circle. "Kill it and you'll be able to go back."
"Die, you vile son!" As soon as the demon raised his hand, a green light blasted Lucifer out, life and death were unknown, the summoning circle finally could no longer support it, seeing that the body of the demon lord was about to disappear, the monster refused to give up, and forcibly pulled down one arm.
Then he roared and pounced on Xing Tianyu and Sylvia.
Damn, what the hell is this thing, so powerful?
No, I have to summon something! [.]
