Chapter 751: Golem From God Of Machines

“Does it mean we lost?” Velion asked.

He was watching Zeus tear Aerion’s body in half.

The sound of it echoed across the broken skies.

The battle had ended in Zeus’s World.

Kaelus stood beside Velion, his jaw tight.

“That bastard,” he muttered, veins bulging on his forehead.

His hands were trembling from anger.

Velion’s eyes flickered toward him. “Are you not going to join the fight?”

“No. We can’t. We need two of us here to keep the seal on the Heavenbreaker stable.” Kaelus bit his lips, his eyes bloodshot.

He looked toward the cube behind them. Neo’s clone was sealed inside it.

“If he gets out, we’ll have a much bigger problem than Zeus. He is a Grim Reaper,” Kaelus continued, “We need to focus on sealing him.”

“Then what about that lightning god?” Velion tilted his head.

Kaelus gave him a side glance, reading the tone behind his words.

Velion’s voice carried no urgency, or concern. It was clear he had no intention of fighting, or helping Aerion.

“You don’t care about Aerion, do you?” Kaelus said.

Velion didn’t answer.

His expression stayed calm, and curious, as he watched Zeus standing over Aerion’s body.

Zeus turned to them.

His golden eyes were calm but cold.

“Now,” he said, his voice echoing through the broken sky, “open the passage. This is the last time I’ll ask politely.”

Kaelus clicked his tongue and raised his hand.

Space tore open in front of him like paper. He reached inside the rip and pulled something out.

It was a small object, barely the size of a coin.

He threw it into the air.

The object floated, expanded, and reshaped itself into a human-sized golem.

Its body was made of stone and metal, with faint blue lines pulsing beneath the surface.

Despite its texture, its form was eerily human.

“What’s that?” Velion frowned.

“It’s something ’I’ gave me. He told me to use it if things got bad,” Kaelus said.

Velion crossed his arms. “That golem looks like Stage 2 at most. You really think that’ll help against someone who just killed Aerion?”

“I don’t know,” Kaelus admitted through clenched teeth. “But ’I’ said it’s a weapon from the God of Machines.”

That name made Zeus frown.

The God of Machines was the same being who supplied the Alliance with weapons that could tear through all barriers.

Those weapons had already changed the balance of countless wars.

The entire reason Alliance had weapons with firepower stronger to peak Stage 6 Gods was thanks to God of Machine.

’A weapon from him?’ Zeus thought, brows creasing.

The golem’s fingers twitched.

Its eyelids moved, and then its mouth opened.

“Order to engage given,” it said in a flat, mechanical voice. “Query accepted. Prototype Golem Heaven Slayer activating.”

“Heaven Slayer?” Zeus muttered.

The thing was weak, at least by normal standards.

A Stage 2 being couldn’t harm him.

Yet he didn’t attack immediately.

Something felt off.

The dragons weren’t foolish. If they were using something that weak, it meant there was a trick.

He also felt something strange when he looked at it.

’That face… I’ve seen it before.’

The golem lifted its head and locked eyes with him.

“Target confirmed.”

Energy gathered around its right arm, transforming from a white wisp to a glowing sword made of condensed white light.

Zeus’s eyes widened.

“That’s world energy—”

Before he could finish, the golem swung its sword.

A blinding flash split the sky.

Zeus’s World was cleaved into two halves.

Then pain followed. His arm was gone.

Blood sprayed from the stump as he fell, lightning bursting wildly from his body.

His mind struggled to process what had happened.

’It cut through my invincibility?’

He looked at the Golem, his vision blurred.

The golem hovered calmly in the sky, its sword still glowing white.

’A Stage 2 golem did this?’

Then he realized why its face looked familiar.

’That’s…’

Before he could say it, Percival’s voice echoed from below. “Ultris! It’s the existence of Ultris!”

Zeus froze.

The Golem’s attack had not only sliced his World, it had cut through Amelia’s as well.

Everyone could see the Golem now.

Amelia, Percival, Felix, and even Berserker turned their attention upward.

The golem’s mechanical eyes shifted between them.

“New targets confirmed.”

It raised its sword again.

Before it struck, everyone moved at once. Zeus, Amelia, Percival, Felix, Berserker. All felt a sense of ominous foreboding from it.

Their strongest attacks flew towards it.

But none of it mattered.

The sword came down faster than thought.

The world spun.

Zeus saw his surroundings twist, and then he saw his own body—headless—standing in front of him.

He tried to move, but he couldn’t.

His consciousness flickered.

’I was decapitated…?’

The moment his thought formed, his body collapsed, reverting to Arthur’s form.

His head rolled beside it, separated cleanly.

Amelia suffered the same fate.

Her eyes widened as her World shattered.

Her form broke apart into fragments of light.

Percival, Felix, Berserker, none were spared.

Even the Site they fought on was split down the middle, collapsing into nothingness.

For a long second, there was only silence.

Velion blinked, watching the dust settle. “That was fast. Seems like the job’s done. Can we go back now?”

Kaelus didn’t answer immediately.

He was still staring at the golem, his thoughts spinning.

“…Yes,” he finally said, though his voice sounded distant.

He glanced at the fading rip in space that led out of Zeus’s broken World.

The golem was floating motionless now, its body dimming.

Kaelus’s mind raced.

’So that’s the weapon of the Alliance? I heard they defeated the Loved One of Space from the enemy’s side. Is this how they did it?’

The thought unsettled him.

The God of Machines. Who was he to be able to create such a weapon.

“Destroy the Site too. That was also a task ’I’ gave us. Erase the Site completely,” Velion suddenly said.

The Golem moved again.

With a sword swing, it destroyed everything inside the Site completely.

“Come back,” Kaelus said.

He stored the Golem in his storage, then lifted the barrier separating the former Site from its surroundings, and left.
