Chapter 2522 Near, But Also Far
After the big explosion, which shake the space of Zocarro itself, Minos saw his enemy flee with superficial burns, flying in the opposite direction.
“Tsk! Not so fast!” Minos grabbed his Divine Sword with both hands and sliced through space, a feat reminiscent of Kendrick’s divine ability.
A portal materialized kilometers ahead, and with a powerful flap of his wings, Minos crossed through, appearing before Artaud in a few breaths of time.
Seeing the enemy appear before him, the wounded alien’s eyes widened in terror.
“Minos! You’ll pay for this!” he shouted, though his voice quivered, revealing his fear. This was a deadly encounterโone of them would have to die for the other to continue.
Artaud’s confidence wavered. Officer Stuart now controlled the Hydras Amulet, an artifact of immense power, coveted even by newly promoted Supremes.
The amulet around Minos’s neck pulsed with an eerie glow, its power radiating through him. Artaud knew the legends, knew the peril he faced, and for the first time, truly feared for his life.
Wounded and without allies, Artaud couldn’t help but wonder about the fate of this fight.
“If they find out what you’re doing against one of your superiors, you’ll pay with your life, Minos!” Artaud shouted as he prepared to defend and counterattack.
As he attacked the enemy, becoming a giant of shadows, carrying a sword bathed in blinding golden light, Minos shouted. “Tsk! So you have every right to kill me, but I can’t do anything about it?” ๐๐๐ฏ๐ฐ๐ท.๐ธ๐๐ฎ
“Exactly! That’s the difference between a council member like me and a mere internal members like you!” the alien said as the giant dragon silhouette around him prepared to defend him against the aggression.
“Son of a bitch!” Minos grimaced as he lunged forward, colliding with the enemy after his words, causing strong winds to blow in the area from the powerful clash between his powers and Artaud’s.
Artaud defended himself despite feeling his legs tremble as he made an expression of pain, but without voicing his feelings.
Chaotic Gravity!
With one hand, Minos increased the weight of his opponent’s body, using his technique in accordance with one of the Hydras Amulet’s powers that could even affect gravity.
Temporal Sands!
The great hourglass formed beneath Artaud, giving the General a sense of how dangerous Minos’ ability was when it could affect his targets.
Just as he was about to counterattack while the dragon silhouette held the enemy’s sword still, Artaud felt his opponent’s speed double almost instantly, and his dragon silhouette shattered as if it were made of glass.
Minos’ wings changed shape and pierced Artaud’s body like two very dangerous spears.
Artaud could only stare wide-eyed at the aggression of the enemy as he tried to change his position. Unfortunately, he was affected by the Temporal Sands and soon found himself pierced by Minos’ two wings.
He opened his mouth and screamed, unleashing a powerful dragon roar right into Minos’ face.
Minos felt his enemy’s high-pitched scream as he clenched his teeth and narrowed his eyes to the point that wrinkles formed around them.
Blood dripped from his ears, but he held on. Under the enemy’s powerful attack, he let the Hydras Amulet work to regenerate his body while his wings rotated inside Artaud’s body.
He couldn’t remain immaterial now, otherwise he wouldn’t be able to affect his enemy’s wounded body. Fortunately, the Heavenly Regeneration of the Hydra Amulet was not to be underestimated!
“Damn you! Even if I have to fall, I’m taking you with me!” Artaud said as he moved his mouth forward to rip a chunk out of Minos’ body.
Minos used his Indestructible Body, swinging his arms until he struck Artaud’s head with his two open hands, using his gravitational ability to his advantage to power his attack.
Minos’ powerful blows took effect before Artaud reached him, temporarily trapping his enemy’s head while the human’s wings finished crossing that body.
The moment this happened, Minos used his immunity to pass through Artaud’s body while the enemy missed his last attempt at a counterattack.
As he overbalanced and fell forward, Artaud felt a sting in his chest and noticed a seal left there by Minos.
His eyes widened in pain as he turned his attention to Minos, opened his mouth in horror. “No!”
He just screamed as Minos made a few hand seals, activating one variation of the Infinity Seal technique, causing the seal on Artaud’s chest to freeze, petrifying vital parts of the enemy’s body.
As he kept his seal working, putting the rest of his energy into this move, Minos stood 22 meters away from Artaud, his wings fully spread as his eyes flashed violently.
“Don’t worry, you’ll see Zocarro again soon. I’ll make sure you serve me for a long time before I prevent you from being reborn.” Minos said with a devilish smile, ignoring the various injuries he had suffered and that the Hydras Amulet was helping him to recover.
Artaud shook with rage, but he was already incapacitated. Immediately after realizing Minos would revive him in the future to force him into the humiliating situation of serving an enemy even after death, Artaud felt his heart stop before his entire field of vision lost light.
His soul cracked and exploded a moment later, marking the end of the life of a powerful level 114 Sovereign!
Minos watched the end of his enemy, gazing at the frozen corpse with great joy as his legs trembled.
This wasn’t the situation where Minos’ life was most in danger, but this was the strongest opponent he had ever defeated.
As he watched his enemy’s corpse fall to the ground, Minos glimpsed his journey so far and felt he was one step away from the next stage of cultivation.
However, the next step was so far away from him that he could only look up and see he still had a great climb ahead of him to reach the point where he could challenge Supremes.
Even with the Hydras Amulet, his limit was at most level 114. As for level 115, only time would tell how long it would take for Minos to challenge it!
