Chapter 1998 Kill
After killing one King Class Monster, another hand came out. But this time, the hand didn't try to grab one of the King Class Monsters. Instead, it slammed the ground and pushed it as if it was trying to bring the real body out.
"Move!" The King Class Monster shouted, warning the others. By the time they moved, the ground had crumbled as a huge skeleton emerged from the ground. Though, only the upper body came out of the ground while the rest remained underground.
The skeleton glared at them with a pair of red eyes. And a woman wearing a long white gown descended on the skeleton's shoulder. Her beautiful appearance stunned everyone. They never thought there would be such a beautiful woman hiding from anyone. In addition, her strength could easily defeat a King Class Monster.
Theo glanced to the side. It seemed the Goddess of Death sensed his gaze and turned to him while opening her mouth.
Even without sound, Theo could see what she wanted to say.
'Watch!'
She only said one word. In that instant, her eyes turned red like the Death Avatar. A purple flame appeared in their eyes.
"!!!" The King Class Monsters felt the fluctuation of extraordinary power and hurriedly shouted, "Not good. Stop her!"
Many King Class Monsters hurriedly surrounded her, trying to stop her. Unfortunately, it was too late.
Death Avatar, First Authority. Death Eyes.
She opened her eyes wide when activating the Death Eyes. The Death Avatar's eyes immediately released a powerful shock wave to the surroundings. The shock wave was actually visible due to the blood red color it carried.
The King Class Monsters that were about to stop him froze. Their entire world seemed to change.
It looked like an illusion. They could still sense the Goddess of Death and her Death Avatar.
But they didn't know why they felt their heart was grasped by someone. It beat rapidly and seemed to be able to explode at any moment.
"This is…" The monsters couldn't help but back away. Even if they could resist this power, they would feel a bit weak when influenced by Death Eyes.
"Kh…" The King Class Monsters gritted their teeth. Some of them fell on their knees, having trouble standing up. Meanwhile, some monsters, Supreme Rank or lower, were affected badly.
Those with strong mental power managed to resist, but they fell to the ground. Those with weak mentality immediately dropped to the ground, either passed out or dead.
This was the difference in power between a powerful Saint and a new Saint. The Dark Saint was able to kill one King Class Monster, but the Goddess of Death could injure ten King Class Monsters at once along with many normal monsters.
Theo, who witnessed the entire thing, couldn't help but smile. 'As expected, the Death Avatar is her power. She's the only one who can utilize its true power. With the help of the Death Authority, she could fully manifest the true meaning of the Death Eyes…'
Theo knew that no matter how hard he tried to copy this power, without the Death Authority, it was impossible.
Of course, he had his own technique. There was even one ability that he could develop further and reach the rank beyond S Rank.
After the shocking attack, the Goddess of Death marched forward, trying to kill some King Class Monsters. The Transcendent Level Experts on the left wing were stunned, but there was Ava among them.
She was the first to leap forward and utilize her lightning in a big way to kill one injured King Class Monster.
Seeing that action inspired the others to take the same action as they aimed for the weaker King Class Monsters, trying to reduce the number.
Even if they couldn't defeat them, the humans would push the King Class Monsters back until they passed the swarm of monsters.
Meanwhile, there were still some hidden cards that chose to wait. After all, they were the main force against the World Class Monsters.
Theo also moved forward like this. The Sword Saint and the Heavenly Sovereign were ready to unleash their might.
The Heavenly Sovereign smirked and clapped his hand. Suddenly, a trigram appeared in front of them. "Hit it!"
The Sword Saint nodded and waved his sword. "Traverse Sword."
The sword released a crescent-shaped energy. It might look simple and lack power, but if one took a closer look, one would notice that the outer layer was just a shell to hide its true power.
The moment the sword strike hit the trigrams, the latter shone as it copied the energy of the sword strike and turned it into four.
"Four Season Amplification!" The Heavenly Sovereign smirked.
The sword strike carried each season. The sudden change alarmed the King Class Monsters that overlooked the monster army.
They hurriedly moved forward while using their own abilities to stop it.
But these four slashes were the combination between the Sword Saint and the Heavenly Sovereign.
The sword strike that carried Winter burst first after getting bombarded by the King Class Monsters.
The explosion released a huge amount of chilling white fog, freezing the ground and the monsters nearby. Even the King Class Monsters that tried to contain it was affected by its freezing power.
But that wasn't the only thing they had to take care of. The Summer exploded, lighting up the entire area. The fire cooked many demons alive. It felt like hell descended in that area.
The Spring caused a powerful gale, blowing away many monsters and King Class Monsters. The monsters ended up crashing into each other, causing a jam in their formation.
Meanwhile, the sword strike that carried Autumn was brimming with life. Once it exploded, it spread a powerful energy that stimulated the ground, specifically any seeds inside the soil.
Suddenly, the seeds broke apart and fully grew into giant plants, capturing the monsters and even stopping them with their bodies.
Although their attacks didn't kill any King Class Monsters, they had caused the front of the monster army to collapse. As for the King Class Monsters, there was still one man who hadn't made his move yet…
Theo's expression turned serious.
"It's time."
