Chapter 997 The Warnings
Chapter 997 The Warnings
Kahn stood dumbfounded as soon as the group of semi-saints revealed their identities as well as the human among them being none other than the Hero of Time.
[Fuck! Out of all the heroes I could have faced… I met the one whose abilities I had no idea about.
Even my elemental affinities and resistance to many skills and attacks are mainly viable to the 8 elemental heroes.
I wouldn't mind if he was the Hero of Light or Hero of Lightning.
But someone who deals with the Time-related skills and possibly has Divine Abilities related to it… This is a dangerous foe even for me.] thought Kahn as his first instinct.
"Why? Are you that surprised now that you know my real identity?
I was expecting more of an ignorant and dismissive response from you since have always been an overbearingly haughty and indifferent narcissist who acts like he is better than everybody else." said the Hero of Time with a smug countenance.
Even through his words, it felt as if he found Kahn incorrigible and held deep enmity with him for some reason.
"Alright, don't let him act first!" ordered the Hero and soon, every single member of his party, including him, started taking out crystal-shaped artifacts, each having a different color than others.
Shing! Shing!
Soon, the crystals shimmered and a beam of light with their respective color was launched into the sky.
Soon, dozens of archaic magic formations appeared in the sky and spread over 20 kilometers of distance, creating a dome-like golden barrier.
Crumble!
Shatter!
In the following moments, all the crystals shattered on their own, and their auras were absorbed by the cores of these semi-saints.
[Warning! The host is under an Ancient Rank suppression spell and all of the host's physical and magical stats are being affected.
Strength has been reduced by 65%
Agility has been reduced by 54%
Dexterity has been reduced by 49%
Defense has been reduced by 37%
Mana has been reduced by 43%.] notified the system.
The entire activation time for this suppression barrier was only 5 seconds as if they came prepared from the very beginning.
Even as a Semi-Saint, Kahn was already 2 to 3 times stronger than others even before Romulus and Vildred trained him.
So now, with all of his stats being reduced by almost half in most of the aspects, he was like a normal semi-saint.
But things didn't stop there.
[All of the host's elemental defense to skills and spells has been reduced by 35%.] informed the system again.
Woosh!
Slash!
Without a hitch, Kahn instantly used Quicksilver and attacked one of them.
Bang!
But right then, an impenetrable barrier appeared like a protective shield in front of all of them.
Even Lucifer had failed to pierce through it despite being covered with Space Force.
Even if he doesn't have the latter, the first one alone is more than enough to have me trapped like a rat in a cage.] he concluded.
This was the only possible explanation as to why the Hero of Time knew almost everything about how Kahn operated and his holster of skills, weapons, and bloodlines.
"Give up now. Maybe I will be magnanimous enough to grant you a swift death… something that you don't deserve after what you did to me." spoke Anakin with cold and vengeful eyes.
However… "Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!
This is good. It's been a long time since I was on the verge of death and I was thoroughly cornered.
I missed the thrill and excitement of it." spoke Kahn, his expression turning sinister and sadistic as his eyes focused on the Hero of Time.
"There are 12 of you and 1 of me. This is so unfair…
For you." declared Kahn menacingly.
"The hell is he talking about? Hasn't he realized that we can crush him like an ant now?" asked the blue beastkin.
However, Kahn did not give them a moment to converse and replied truthfully.
"You fucking idiots. I have been holding back till now because I had to hide my identity thus making me use only a limited amount of skills and elemental powers. I was also restricted to acting and fighting like a Brawler class warrior for almost a year now." iterated Kahn.
"But now, since there is no one else other than us… I do not need to hold back." spoke Kahn in a domineering tone.
Woosh!
Woosh!
In succession, black shadows emerged from his body and soon, they transformed into Kahn as he created his doppelgangers.
Since he was unable to use world energy, his dopdoppelgangers count had reduced to 6 as he was stuck at Semi-Saint rank.
But since he wasn't restricted to using cosmic aether since it was a different entity than the world energy, mixed with the dimensional essence, he could still create 5 cosmic replicas.
But since he left one of them in the peninsula left by the God of Nature, he could create only 4 of them now.
Including Kahn himself, he had a total of 11 versions of him against the 12.
11 people against 12. The numbers were close now.
"Don't be so certain of getting out of here alive just because you created mere copies of yourself.
With your strength reduced to a beginner grandmaster… you have only brought yourself a few extra minutes." declared Anakin in golden and blue robes with a haughty expression.
"You… I don't know what your beef is with me, but don't blabber nonsense."
BOOM!
BOOM!
Kahn quickly activated War Dominance and his black and red aura spread in the nearby 2 kilometers as all the doppelgangers followed the same suit.
"I may be outnumbered. But you're outmatched." declared Kahn in a tyrannical voice.
Flutter!
Flutter!
"Looks like you guys haven't realized it yet…
I'm not some random side-quest NPC you can gang up on and kill easily."
Soul-shivering gusts of winds spread in this desolate battlefield as everyone's clothes fluttered from Kahn's aura of Darkness as he declared in a kingly voice...
"I'm the Final Boss."
