Chapter 568 The Strongest Player Alive
Chapter 568 The Strongest Player Alive
”Hands off me!” Underlord slapped the hand away. At the same time, he tried to apply his reality bending powers. However, all attempts to change the reality were warded off by Zachary.
”Fine, jeez.” Zachary rubbed his red-fleshed hand and walked to one of the empty tables. After sitting, he placed his legs on the table, positioned his arms behind his head, and relaxed while watching the TV.
Underlord looked at his hand, shock flashing over his eyes. The red circuits of electricity wrapped around his finger and flesh. There was also the strange black smoke that came out of his fingertips. His powers still worked.
However, for some reason, Zachary managed to remove all effects without doing anything.
‘Erebus, what is this?!’ Underlord screamed inside his mind. Trying to dig deep into his consciousness.
‘He…’ A strange trembling voice echoed from the far deep of his consciousness, ‘Has… powers… of… Primordial!’
‘Someone like me?! But, you said I was the only one!’
To the onlookers, it looked like Underlord’s face reddened suddenly. They weren’t aware that he was shouting inside his mind, having a conversation with an ancient being.
‘You are not… only one… anymore…’
‘Damn it!’ Underlord left his consciousness and looked at Zachary with crimson eyes. Knowing that there was someone like him made him change some of his plans. He thought that the Tournament would be a piece of cake. But doesn’t seem like it.
Everyone watched as Underlord turned away and left the lounge. After his silhouette disappeared in the hallway, the discussions returned.
”It’s him.” Isaac said while glancing at Zachary, ”My… teammate.”
”He is indeed strong.” Kalzer said calmly with half-closed eyes, ”To ward off Underlord’s strange aura… it’s not easy.”
As time went by, the players, one after another, started thinking about plans to go out of the Arena. However, they were not certain whether they were allowed. They were only visitors, and maybe Inhumans wouldn’t be pleased to see them.
This was their first time in Moon City. After all, it was very hard to come here. However, Isaac knew that Inhumans wouldn’t mind. But, he wasn’t sure how the Goddesses and Gods would react.
At the peak of the conversation, the TV screen suddenly changed the views. From the images of the Arena, a beautiful veiled figure appeared on the screen. Her face looked to be obscure. But, everyone could tell how beautiful she was.
”The Contenders of the Tournament of Champions, we welcome you.” She said in her angelic voice, ”My name is Goddess Selene. I am the Goddess of the Moon.”
”Goddess of the Moon…” Luna murmured softly.
Everyone sat silently, watching the screen with their interest piqued.
”Final Stage starts tomorrow. Till then, you may log off, relax your mind, and return before 10 o’clock in the morning.
”However, you may also stay here. The rooms where you spawned are yours, and you may use them as you wish. You can also leave the Arena and tour the City. Tomorrow, once the Gods and Goddesses have come to the Arena alongside the residents of Moon City, we will announce the format of the final stage.”
After the final words, the TV screen turned blank.
Everyone whispered in excitement. Most of them planned to visit Moon City, while some logged out immediately. After all, most of them hadn’t seen their families for over a week and were missing them.
”What are you guys going to do?” Amour asked.
”It’s not every day you can visit Moon City…” Kalzer stood up, preparing to leave the Arena.
Following him, everyone around the table stood up and left the lounge. After they left, the players started logging out and leaving the Arena with their own groups.
Walking down the long hallway, Isaac soon noticed a shimmer of light coming from another end. There was another lounge filled with even more players. He could see familiar faces, such as Darth, Queen Diana, and King Jonathan, seated around the same table.
One of the tables had King Michael and Colossus puffing their muscles as they looked at King Jonathan, etc.
”Darth.” Hearing the voice coming behind, Darth, Queen Diana, and King Jonathan turned around. They were pleasantly surprised to see Isaac, but then, their faces froze.
The atmosphere in the lounge turned silent. Everyone looked to be shocked as Kalzer, Xerxus, Amour, and Noelle appeared.
No one dared to utter a sound… except, one.
”Amour!”
”That voice…” Lord Amour rubbed his neck, his face showing a serious frown. A towering figure appeared before him. King Arawn held his one-handed axe and stood proudly with his head held high.
The atmosphere turned serious as two titans clashed with their auras.
”Omg.” Colossus held his mouth and felt like passing out. Two of his idols stood on their grounds while exchanging blows with their auras. The lounge seemed to be shrouded in an invisible pressure, making standing hard for many.
Darth paled and had to take a step back. The amount of pressure was too much for him.
Even Queen Diana and King Jonathan had difficulty keeping their sweat from flowing.
”Enough.” Kalzer grabbed their shoulders and subdued both of their auras!
”Kalzer…” King Arawn gulped and felt his knees going weaker as Kalzer’s hand pushed him down.
Lord Amour smirked, ”Fine…”
The battle of auras ended, and the pressure disappeared from the air.
Isaac looked at the pale-faced Darth and asked, ”Wanna come to tour the City with us?”
”With… us?” Darth looked at them, and when he compared himself to them. He was nothing.
The legendary Spear God, perhaps the strongest Player alive, Lord Kalzer.
The Undefeated Warrior God, Lord Amour.
The Fastest Human Alive, Speed God, King Xerxus.
The Strongest Thief, Lady Noelle.
”Yeah, with us.” Isaac pointed at everyone behind him, and then turned to Diana, and Jonathan, ”Want to come as well?”
”Sure…” Queen Diana and King Jonathan replied with slightly weak smiles. They were often revered and respected everywhere they went. But, the presence of the four Human Gods was simply too much.
Isaac then turned to Darth, ”Should we go meet Iah and Mona? It has been some time since we last met them.”
Darth immediately remembered the two faces that helped with their tests. He nodded.
”I will come too!” King Arawn flexed his muscles, ”Amour, I will defeat you!”
”Whatever…” Amour rolled his eyes.
‘Cecilia isn’t here…’ Luna thought to herself as she looked around the lounge.
The group, which was now four people bigger, left the lounge under the shocked faces of everyone present. This group alone could perhaps clear any dungeon in the world!
