Gods' Impact Online

Chapter 124: The Elite Four

Zach’s fighting style had five options depending on the opponent he was fighting.

His first option was to fight back. His second option was to dodge. His third option was to block. His fourth option was to absorb opponents’ magical attacks. And his fifth option was to do nothing.

Zach had realized that dodging attacks wouldn’t work, so he chose the fourth option.

The third option was to block the attacks, but it was a useless strategy against Maxim since he was predicting Zach’s move.

The fourth option was to absorb Maxim’s lightning attacks and tire him up before beating him unconscious.

Zach couldn’t use the fifth option because it was stupid.

Of course, Zach would have used the first option and killed Maxim if he wanted to. But he thought the sixth would get in trouble. 

Sure Zach didn’t care much about the sixth, but he was worried about Aquarius and the kingdom, who could get into a mess because of Zach’s actions.

He was trying his best not to let his hands slip as they did before when he killed Maxim’s little brother by throwing him into the chandelier after choking him. However, Zach didn’t regret doing that.

Anyone who insulted his girls or tried to do anything to them would end up dead in the cruelest way possible.

In the next five minutes, Zach had absorbed over hundreds of lightning bolts, and his gloves had almost turned purple.

‘Do sea creatures never run out of MP?!’ Zach exclaimed.

‘My gloves can only absorb ten to twelve more attacks. After that, I will have to release all the magic.

Zach had already planned what to do with Maxim, but his plans changed when he heard a familiar voice.

“Zach!”

‘Aurora?! What is doing—’ Zach jumped and glanced back to see it wasn’t only Aurora.

Aria, Aquarius, Ruli, Rilu, Aquitius the sixth, Maxim’s guards and clan members, and the sixth’s guards, were all in the air on the carriages and mattresses.

Maxim’s clan members and guards and the sixth’s guards were hostile towards each other for obvious reasons.

“Heh!” Maxim summoned a giant lightning bolt and threw it at Zach, or so it looked like. While in truth, Maxim targeted Aria and Aurora, who were standing next to each other.

“…!”

Zach immediately jumped in the air and tried to stop the lightning bolt, but it passed by Zach’s shoulders and went to Aria and Aurora at full speed.

“….!”

“It won’t stop until it hits them!” Maxim snickered. “Even if they dodge it, it will change its direction and hit them!”

Aria used her bow skill, and Aurora used her Lyda strike to stop the lightning bolt that was headed towards them, but they only managed to slow it down.

“…!”

With every passing second, Zach’s face turned more and more pale.

Out of nowhere, Aquarius jumped in between and ate the lightning bolt.

“What—!” Maxim exclaimed with a baffled expression on his face.

Even Zach was surprised, but he didn’t have time to show his reaction. 

He turned to Maxim and uttered, “You shouldn’t have done that.”

Maxim gulped in fear and yelled at his guards to help him.

Maxim’s guards jumped down on the ground and dashed at Zach to attack him. At the same time, Maxim turned around and started running towards the mattress so he could escape.

“Not so fast!” Zach summoned a colossal hand made with lava and grabbed Maxim in it.

‘I can’t believe this really worked.’ Zach uttered inwardly.

He had summoned the hand as a weapon shaped like a colossal hand. 

Zach released all his remaining 11582 MP in the colassal hand and burned Maxim to death. However, he didn’t stop at that. He threw Maxim’s body in the air and released all the lightning attacks he had absorbed at Maxim’s dead body.

Maxim’s body exploded, and his burned body parts scattered all around the shattered arena.

After looking at the arena and Maxim’s body parts, Zach sighed and muttered, “I suck at cooking.”

“…!” Zach had forgotten about Maxim’s guards.

When he turned around, he saw they were about to hit him. Zach could have summoned any magic weapon and blocked their attacks, but he had used all his remaining MP on the last attack.

He could have judged their attacks too, but they had surrounded Zach from all sides.

‘Well, it doesn’t matter. My martial arts—”

Suddenly, the sixth’s guards jumped behind Maxim’s guards and killed them in an instant.

“….” Zach looked up and saw the rest of the sixth’s guards were killing Maxim’s clan members.

Aquitius the sixth’s carriage landed on the ground, and he walked out with Rilu and Ruli.

Aquarius, Aria, and Aurora also came out of their carriage and rushed at Zach.

Aurora, of course, hugged Zach tightly and didn’t let go of him until he hugged her back.

Aria also looked a little worried, which was unusual for her.

She then remembered her conversation with Aurora, where she remarked to Aurora about worrying about Zach against his match with Starlord. To which Aurora had replied, ‘You won’t understand it because you don’t love him.’

Now, Aria had realized what Aurora was talking about.

Zach simply smiled at Aria and said, “Why are you making that face?”

Aria averted her face and muttered something under her breath that no one could hear.

Zach then glanced at Aquarius and asked, “Did you seriously eat a lightning bolt?”

“Ahem!” Aquitius the sixth cleared his throat and said, “You…”

SIGH!

The sixth sighed and uttered, “Elite four, I summon you!”

Four figures landed between Zach and the sixth. Three guards were males, and one was female.

Aquitius looked at the first two and said, “Go and annihilate Maxim’s entire clan. Don’t leave a single one alive!”

The two guards bowed down and left.

Then, Aquitius turned to the female guard and said, “Take care of my daughter and the other two girls.”

The female guard nodded and took Aquarius, Aria, and Aurora back to the palace.

Zach looked at the fourth guard and wondered, ‘Is it just me, or does this last guard look a lot like Starlord?’
