Chapter 579 [Gjallarhorn]

Chapter 191 Titan War Horn

The old Grand Magister Augustus of the Celestial God Plane watched Suren teleport in, a flash of cold light flickering in his aged eyes.

Now that even using the divine art of airspace restriction couldn't stop his teleportation, he must possess a divine-grade treasure.

What great luck...

However, even though the person before him was a major realm lower, Augustus didn't dare to underestimate him in the slightest.

Before, he had thought that the natives of the Alchemic Plane were not worth mentioning.

After all, the laws were incomplete, the civilization's inheritance was fragmented, and the limit of the professionals was right there.

But in recent days, the magic legions had suffered heavy losses frequently, and the contempt in his heart had long vanished, replaced by an unprecedented sense of threat.

Just like just now, even though that black-robed old warlock was only Seventh Order, he had managed to entangle him for so long, even causing him a small loss.

This would absolutely be impossible in the Celestial God Plane.

Augustus had encountered countless powerful individuals in his long life, but he had to admit that the black-robed warlock was the strongest Seventh Order he had ever seen!

The originally not-too-exaggerated talent ability of Twofold Comprehension, when used by the black-robed warlock, was surprisingly effective everywhere. Those eyes of insight seemed to leave no secrets hidden, making him feel constrained in battle.

And this was just his encounter; if it were any other Eighth Order Grand Magister in the group, not only would they not be able to win, but they might even be defeated by this Seventh Order!

But strangely, such a Seventh Order warlock with outrageous combat power was a transparent figure that had never been mentioned in the intelligence reports.

And a glance at that swordsman wreaking havoc in the snake swarm in the distance... what was going on here?

Threefold Comprehension Rakshasa, Seventh Order Demi-Sword God... any one of these would be considered top talent.

Yet he saw it all in one person.

This alchemic organization called Dawn was becoming increasingly mysterious.

Moreover, the one before him was the puppeteer who had severely injured the Holy Son Frank.

This guy was even more troublesome.

At this moment, Augustus no longer harbored the slightest underestimation.

………

Suren took Mr. Black into the Little Void Realm, and looking at the legion commander Augustus before him, his expression was not relaxed in the slightest. Many times, judging whether an enemy was powerful only required sensing their aura.

This guy... was very strong.

Suren even felt that he was more difficult to deal with than the arrogant Holy Son Frank McAdam.

He glanced again at the Gorgon Temple, though he couldn't see what was happening inside the dark palace. But at this moment, the Medusa Queen's soul in his perception was in a very unstable state, as if undergoing some kind of transformation.

Unsure how long the Gorgon clan's inheritance would last, Suren knew he could only grit his teeth and stand before the temple.

Before Suren could catch his breath, Augustus raised his staff and instantly fired a bolt of lightning from the wand in his right hand.

With a crack, the lightning struck the spot where Suren was standing before he could react.

The illusion dissipated, and dozens of meters away, Suren looked at the still-lingering lightning where he had just stood and murmured to himself: Instant Seventh Order arcane spell, is this the strength of an old Grand Magister?

At the same time as he attacked, the snake-haired banshees in the forest also launched a general offensive. A tide of venomous snakes swarmed into the temple, instantly burying the thousand-blade warrior in the snake swarm. Not only were there low-level venomous snakes at this critical juncture, but the soul fluctuations of several high-level snake-haired banshees with human bodies and snake tails were also hidden in the monster horde.

Suren didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. He pinched a warlock seal, and a giant cross instantly appeared in the sky.

He slashed down with the black scythe in his hand, and spatial rifts instantly cut through the returning sea of snakes, slicing it into bloody pieces like a cake.

However, in the next second, the severed snake tide was covered by more swarming venomous snakes.

But in this instant, Suren had already summoned hundreds of gargoyle guardians around him.

The three-hundred-member gargoyle legion immediately blocked another instant arcane magic.

Seeing this, Augustus's face became very gloomy, and he muttered to himself: It really is a puppet legion...

Before, he had heard the reports from the legion branch commanders that a ten-thousand-puppet legion had defeated several of their ten-thousand-mage legions, and he had found it unbelievable, wondering if it was some special means like clever illusions that had confused everyone's senses.

But looking at the puppet legion that had already blotted out the sky, Augustus's expression was very solemn.

Ten thousand puppets, how did this guy manage to control them so freely?

·...·

Suren didn't give the enemy any time to be surprised. In the Puppet Theater, he was in control of everything.

At the very first moment the gargoyle legion spread out, they had already formed a battle formation.

When the super-large Nine-Pointed Star Alchemic Array lit up, the energy fluctuations became increasingly terrifying: Puppet Arcana - Subsonic Vibration.

Augustus, looking at this exaggerated stance that was the same as a ten-thousand-mage legion casting a spell, didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. He waved his staff and thickened the magic shield around his body by another three points.

At the same time, he chanted incantations, already condensing a counterattack magic.

In the next instant, the Nine-Pointed Star Alchemic Array in the sky suddenly exploded, and a sound like a volcanic eruption rang through the sky.

Augustus instantly understood something, frowning tightly: A sonic wave technique?

But knowing it wouldn't stop it.

At the instant the explosion sounded, looking down from the sky, one would immediately see a shockwave centered on the Gorgon Temple rapidly rippling through the forest on Coco Losi Island.

The power of this technique wasn't great; the shockwave didn't even break the trees.

But after this sonic wave lasted for several seconds, a bizarre scene unfolded.

Countless venomous snakes in the Snake Sea Calamity were surging towards the temple, but after the sound waves swept through the snake tide, countless venomous snakes closest to the temple strangely trembled.

Looking closely, each venomous snake seemed to have multiple afterimages due to the vibrations.

However, this anomaly didn't last long. Suddenly, crackling sounds like exploding firecrackers were heard, and the trembling venomous snakes successively exploded into a bloody mist.

This strange explosion was still spreading, and in the blink of an eye, it had cleared out a large number of venomous snakes, and the bloody mist stained the sky red.

This wasn't targeting Augustus, but rather large-scale low-level monsters!

Even if they didn't die, their internal organs would be severely damaged.

Although Qian Tiao's sword aura was sharp, one slash only killed hundreds or thousands of venomous snakes. But the sonic wave technique released by this puppet legion could instantly kill hundreds of thousands or millions of low-level venomous snakes!

In the blink of an eye, a large area of snakes near the temple had been cleared.

And in the sky, the second Nine-Pointed Star Array of the gargoyle legion lit up again.

The Snake Sea Calamity seemed endless, but it might not be able to withstand such an exaggerated consumption.

………

Seeing this, Augustus had already understood everything about the puppet legion, and he was greatly surprised that these puppets actually had the effect of magic towers.

At this moment, he finally understood why a ten-thousand-puppet legion could easily defeat a ten-thousand-mage legion.

These puppets looked like puppets, but they were actually miniature magic towers.

Magic energy gathering, spell solidification, sublimation of technique power... all the abilities that magic towers possessed, the puppets also possessed.

Even though the puppets' functions were far inferior to those of magic towers, they were smaller, more convenient, and could directly fight.

The key was the number of ten thousand, which could be perfectly combined into various battle formations, making it virtually flawless!

What a brilliant puppet legion...

Seeing this, Augustus couldn't help but marvel at the ingenious design of the puppet legion, which was simply incredible.

But this method couldn't be replicated by just anyone.

Not to mention that no puppeteer in the Celestial God Plane was known to be able to control ten thousand puppets.

Even if there were, where would they find so many divine-grade materials that could bear such functions?

It was Living Silver! Where did these natives find so much Living Silver?

Augustus's face darkened as he looked.

Even in the Celestial God Plane, it was an extremely rare magic material.

At this moment, he was once again shocked by the wealth of these alchemic natives.

Even the dignified Eighth Order Grand Magister, who was accustomed to great scenes, felt like a country bumpkin from a remote area.

These Dawn organization members casually possessed divine-grade treasures, divine-grade materials, mythical talents...

It was truly a ghost story.

···

The gargoyle legion released the first round of techniques, and Augustus also reacted. The vertical pupil shadow between his eyebrows suddenly shone brightly, and a beam of light shone over.

Suren had been prepared and easily teleported away to avoid it.

The blue beam of light shone on several gargoyles beside him.

Originally, the gargoyles' spatial black holes, which could absorb various techniques, were useless under this beam of light.

Instead, the moment the light entered the black hole, everything around it began to decompose.

Not only the techniques, but even the gargoyles themselves were decomposed into granular form.

In the blink of an eye, the seven or eight gargoyles hit by the blue light were disintegrated and decomposed into tiny metal spheres.

Augustus didn't continue to release the decomposition beam after failing to hit Suren.

However, Living Silver itself had super memory properties, and the liquid metal that had been decomposed instantly returned to its original appearance.

However, the runes engraved on it, the energy core, the solidified techniques, and everything else had been irreversibly decomposed, leaving only the material itself.

Seeing this, Suren not only didn't feel distressed, but was instead overjoyed. As long as the material was there, the loss wouldn't be great.

It was said to be able to decompose all matter, but that was only if the caster could understand it.

Augustus, the Eighth Order Grand Magister, didn't seem to be able to decompose Living Silver, a divine-grade material, but only destroyed the gargoyles' structure.

Even if he could, the casting itself would consume a large amount of magic power.

This ten-thousand-puppet legion...

Even if he stood there and let him decompose them, he wouldn't have time to decompose them all.

Nor did he dare!

Because Suren himself wouldn't just watch the enemy destroy his puppets.

At the instant the blue light lit up, he teleported and appeared behind Augustus.

The runic black umbrella, wrapped in the flames of the God of Death, struck the guy's magic shield like lightning.

With a bang, the figure dissipated, leaving behind a tattered magic scroll.

Suren didn't need to look to know that the real body had run away.

The Flames of the God of Death had already been exposed when he severely injured the Holy Son Frank, so it was expected that the other party would be prepared.

Moreover, Augustus was an old Eighth Order Grand Magister, and Suren's chances of winning were originally not high. Now that his trump card was exposed, it would be even more difficult to assassinate him.

However, it wasn't Suren who was anxious at this juncture.

It was the enemy who was anxious.

Now, four of the six ten-thousand-mage legions had been defeated, and the other two were under heavy attack by the Dawn团, and the situation was very good.

As long as Suren held out until the Medusa Queen successfully completed her inheritance, the situation would immediately improve.

He wouldn't chase if the enemy wanted to stall.

He just needed to guard the temple.

The gargoyle legion, standing in the void, was already condensing the second round of legion techniques. Another sonic wave exploded, and hundreds of thousands of venomous snakes once again exploded into bloody mist.

As for those high-level venomous snakes that were unaffected by the sonic waves, the crosses in the sky

Were quietly dropping transparent threads...

Physical control of nerves had a higher priority than mental control. Now that Suren's mental power had surged, the number of venomous snakes he could control was terrifying.

In the Puppet Theater, the number of enemies wasn't necessarily an advantage.

After all, the temple only had so much attack range. Like when he had dealt with the undead legion before, after he controlled a portion of the venomous snakes, the offensive of the snake tide slowed down.

Moreover, Suren had also seen that those low-level venomous snakes seemed to be very wary of the temple, and they stopped before the black water pool.

Seeing this, he was even less anxious.

.··.

The two sides fought fiercely like this.

Suren was also amazed that Augustus was indeed ridiculously strong.

With defenses in hand, Suren had almost no means to threaten this guy except for the Flames of the God of Death.

The more Suren fought, the more he wondered how Mr. Black had managed to hold out under this guy for so long.

Said to be omniscient and omnipotent, a gifted person must be knowledgeable. Augustus had almost mastered all magic below the Ninth Order. As a result, this guy's fighting style was simply dazzling. Arcane spells were readily available, and even forbidden spells could be released from time to time...

Suren was forced into several dangerous situations during the battle.

But fortunately, his own life-saving methods weren't weak, and with the tacit cooperation of Qian Tiao, he could barely stall for time. He also had a trump card that he hadn't revealed yet, and was thinking about finding a good opportunity to completely eliminate the enemy.

Suddenly, he realized that something was wrong... the other party didn't seem as anxious as he had imagined

No, what was he waiting for?

Suren's heart tightened. While fighting, his mind was rapidly digesting the information he had harvested from the tens of thousands of people he had yet to digest.

His thoughts raced, and after a long time, he found a key clue in the messy information he had obtained: There was still a squad of Holy Army ascetic monks who weren't in the landing party

Magic legions also had strict authority hierarchies, and not everyone had the authority to know the entire plan to encircle and kill the Medusa Queen. In the information Suren had obtained before, almost everyone subconsciously ignored the existence of the five-hundred-member Holy Army ascetic monks.

But what was ignored was the most important.

Since the enemy already knew that Suren had the ability to severely injure the Holy Son Frank, they must have been prepared for him to behead the legion commander Augustus, so they must have left a backup plan.

And the ascetic monks were among the believers closest to the gods, and their combat power couldn't be judged by ordinary theory.

The five hundred people who hadn't appeared on the battlefield were probably the backup plan.

Suren realized this and felt a little helpless.

After all, this was a positional battle, and even if he knew the enemy had a plan, he had to resist it.

The only thing he could do was to warn the Dawn团 members to be more careful.

………

The distant Augustus watched Suren's fighting style suddenly change, and sneered: Heh, only now did you realize? Too late.

How could he not see that Suren was stalling for time?

And he himself, wasn't he also stalling for time?

Rather than risking a victory or defeat, it was better to wait for a foolproof method.

After all... the Titan gods who once fought in this sea area were their Celestial God Plane's supreme gods!

At this moment, a long bugle call suddenly rang out in the sky. Woo woo woo...

The sound was deep and distant, as if it had a magical power that made people's blood boil.

Suren frowned when he heard the sound.

He thought it was some kind of sonic attack, but after carefully identifying it, he found that it wasn't.

A war horn charging?

Suren's heart was full of doubts. He didn't think this would be the signal for the remaining two ten-thousand-mage legions to prepare to charge.

Just as the horn sound became clearer, a projection suddenly appeared in the sky

.

Suren looked over and his eyelids twitched violently: Another artifact projection?

[Details: An artifact made from the horns of ancient Titan gods and demons, capable of summoning Titan heroic spirits to launch a charge. It has bloodline suppression on Titan bloodline creatures. Divine power blows the horn, driving Titan descendants within range whose bloodline is not higher than demigod to participate in the end-of-days war.]

Looking at the information that was identified, he immediately knew what the enemy was going to do at that moment.

Almost at the instant the horn shadow appeared, the sea area near Coco Losi Island seemed to boil and shake, as if countless behemoths in the sea had been awakened.

What made Suren feel even more troubled was that the distant Hell Volcano erupted again, and powerful auras surged out

-- to view.
