“Boom”.
There was another loud bang. Then, at the entrance of the Atlan Dimension, amidst a column of blazing flames, a slender black-robed silhouette gradually appeared before everyone.
In addition, that silhouette walked towards the Void Zone with complete disregard.
“Merlin? Why would he emerge from the Atlan Dimension?”
The expressions of the Lord G.o.d of Light and the mysterious Marshal s.h.i.+fted dramatically. They were too familiar with Merlin. Even the other Lord G.o.ds were not entirely unfamiliar with Merlin.
A Wizard who possessed a Slothful Beast and was able to control minds. Despite not being an ultimate existence, he posed a much greater threat than the ordinary ultimate existence. Therefore, Merlin was no longer a n.o.body, but a strong contender within the Void Zone.
“Does that mean, something happened inside the Atlan Dimension?”
The mysterious Marshal thought about the Slothful Beast controlled by Merlin and immediately felt a pang of anxiety in his heart. The Slothful Beast did not need the power of natural order and was as tough as nails. If it were to wreak havoc in the Atlan Dimension, who could stop it?
The fact that they lost communication with the Atlan Dimension was most probably Merlin’s doing.
Meanwhile, the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were unaware of the mysterious Marshal’s unease. On the other hand, they saw it as a golden opportunity.
“It’s just Merlin alone. Kill! If we can kill Merlin, that would be equivalent to getting rid of the Slothful Beast. Then, it would simply be a matter of time before the Spell Caster civilization is defeated.”
The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were well-aware of the challenging nature of Merlin’s Slothful Beast. As long as the Slothful Beast was around, it would be extremely difficult to defeat the Spell Caster civilization. Moreover, even the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds did not have the ability to kill the Slothful Beast, so their only hope was to deal with its owner.
However, previously, the Spell Caster civilization had been well-prepared and kept many of the Lord G.o.ds occupied so that the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds of the G.o.d Alliance could not focus on attacking Merlin.
At the same time, Merlin was alone. This was their chance!
“Haha, once we kill Merlin, perhaps we can even obtain the method of taming the Slothful Beast.”
The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds approached Merlin swiftly. With the speed of the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds, this was equivalent to a blink of an eye. They had already closed in on Merlin by the time Roman, Augustus and the others inside the stealth flying s.h.i.+p noticed something amiss. It was too late.
“Haha, he hasn’t even unleashed the Slothful Beast.”
When the Lord G.o.d of Light saw that Merlin was frozen in place and did not release the Slothful Best, he was overjoyed. The holy light on his body was blasted toward Merlin at full force.
Without the Slothful Beast, how could mere Lord like Merlin measure up to the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds?
Hence, the extensive holy light transformed into a large web that covered the Atlan Dimension’s entrance almost entirely. Even if Merlin were to summon the Slothful Beast now, it would be too late.
“Haha, Merlin would die for sure today. Without the threat of the Slothful Beast, we will be able to exterminate the Spell Caster civilization with ease!”
The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were triumphant, they did not expect that the accidental developments outside the Atlan Dimension would end up with such a favorable outcome, which was encountering a lone Merlin.
“Too late, we won’t get there in time.”
Inside the stealth flying s.h.i.+p, Roman shook his head in despair. Although his stealth flying s.h.i.+p was very fast, they were very far away as they were previously escaping from the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds. Now, this safe distance seemed to become an unbridgeable gap which prevented them from rescuing Merlin in time.
“Zap zap zap”.
Multiple rays of holy light drowned Merlin’s figure. The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were comparable to eight ultimate existences, how frightening was such an attack? The main reason that the G.o.d Alliance was able to strike fear in the hearts of countless foreign tribes in their surroundings was due to these Eight Great Lord G.o.ds.
Now that the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were jointly attacking one person, much less Merlin, but even an ultimate existence who had integrated with natural order would not survive. There could be no lucky survivors faced with the simultaneous attacks from the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds.
Suddenly, a very calm and composed aura of Merlin flared outwards. Then, like a ma.s.sive gale, a golden ray pierced through the blanket of bedazzling holy light cast by the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds.
“What is that?”
“Such a terrifying aura, even we are feeling gooseb.u.mps. The Slothful Beast could not possibly possess such a terrifying might…”
The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were closest to Merlin, hence they felt it most succinctly. Amidst the holy light they cast, there was an explosion of power that caused them to shudder.
“Lord G.o.d of Light, we meet again!”
Merlin’s ice-cold voice resounded. Following that, a golden figure slowly emerged from behind the holy light.
At this time, Merlin had activated the power of the Golden Ray Armor. The brilliant golden gleam exuded an incredible power. The golden armor seemed to exert an invisible aura of suppression upon the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds.
“Not dead?”
The Lord G.o.d of Light’s face was shaken. Earlier, the joint attack by the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds could not be said to be weak by any sense, yet Merlin was wholly unharmed. It was extremely peculiar.
“Dead?”
Merlin’s lips quirked into a smile. To be honest, the attack from the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds did make him a little nervous. After all, the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were the strongest force in their vicinity. Anyone under the siege of the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds, regardless of ultimate existence, would be in danger.
However, the Golden Ray Armor gave Merlin a major confidence boost. Back then, the Golden Ray Armor was comparable to the Thirty-six Emperors. This was the ultimate product of the Vestigial Tribe’s knowledge. In the past, this Golden Ray Armor was invincible throughout the entire Void Zone.
Therefore, Merlin faced the attack from the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds head-on. The frightening holy light contained a plethora of natural order’s great powers, but upon impact with Merlin’s body, it did not cause him any harm.
The endurance of the Golden Ray Armor strengthened Merlin’s confidence!
Seeing Merlin approaching step by step, the Lord G.o.d of Light revealed a look of terror on his face. He yelled again, “I don’t know what tactic Merlin used to deflect our attack, but I’m sure he won’t be able to hold on for a long time.”
The Lord G.o.d of Light was about to attack once again but Merlin did not give him the opportunity.
Merlin gently raised his hand and pointed. “Gravitational field!”
“Boom”.
An immense power that almost caused the Lord G.o.d of Light to suffocate enveloped him in an instant. This gravitational field was disintegrating and twisting the holy light on his body, even the power of natural order could not resist it. Compared to Roman’s gravitational field, this was a whole new creature.
The Golden Ray Armor was an existence comparable to the Thirty-six Emperors, so its skills were a cut above the ultimate existences. Only the Thirty-six Emperors could possibly resist it.
“How could you become so powerful? What did you obtain from the Atlan Dimension?”
The Lord G.o.d of Light had to exhaust a great amount of energy to spit out these few words. Nevertheless, the holy light on his body continued to weaken and disintegrate. The powerful gravitational force of this gravitational field would soon crush him into pieces.
“Stop.”
“Lord G.o.d of Light!”
The remaining Lord G.o.ds finally regained their senses and wielded their a.s.sistance, but Merlin stretched out a hand and the invisible gravitational field exploded with a bang.
“Boom”.
The invisible gravitational field actually managed to suppress all Eight Great Lord G.o.ds concurrently. The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds felt hard to move even a single inch. All of them had to use all their strength to resist the pervading gravitational force.
“How can this be possible? We are the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds!”
“The joint forces of the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds can vanquish even an ultimate existence. How can a single individual suppress us?”
The Eight Great Lord G.o.ds were astonished. Not just them, but even Roman, Augustus, the Avian Monarch and the rest inside the stealth flying s.h.i.+p were astonished looking at the s.h.i.+ny golden figure standing in the Void Zone. Despite the considerable distance between them, all of them could sense a terrifying pressure.
Merlin must have obtained an invaluable treasure inside the Atlan Dimension!
“Swoosh”.
Merlin turned abruptly and casted his gaze towards a wars.h.i.+p in a distance.
This wars.h.i.+p was slightly different than the other dimension-level wars.h.i.+ps. It was much bigger and st.u.r.dier than the others. This was the commanding s.h.i.+p among the Atlan civilization’s wars.h.i.+p fleet. The mysterious Marshal was inside the commanding s.h.i.+p.
“Marshal, the Eight Great Lord G.o.ds might not know what I’m wearing, but you should know, right?”
With a large grasp from Merlin’s hand, an incredible suction power sucked the wars.h.i.+p all the way in front of Merlin. Additionally, Merlin’s golden eyes seemed able to see through the wars.h.i.+p to look directly at the mysterious Marshal.
The mysterious Marshal’s eyes widened. The usually composed Marshal actually began to tremble at this moment.
“Open fire, open fire.”
The guards inside the wars.h.i.+p carried out the orders frantically. Immediately, the wars.h.i.+p fired multiple rays of light. Merlin was so close to them that they did not have to aim. Any random blast would definitely land on Merlin.
However, this immensely powerful dimension-level wars.h.i.+p was completely unable to inflict any damage on Merlin’s Golden Ray Armor.
“Impossible, it’s impossible, we’ve researched for such a long time, no one has been able to control it…”
The mysterious Marshal was a candidate jointly nominated by the Army as well as the Senate, so he had strong connections with the Army and the Senate. Due to that, he was immediately able to recognize that Merlin was wearing the Atlan civilization’s greatest secret, an ultimate war weapon that even they did not manage to decipher after countless years.
“Nothing is impossible. Just because you can’t control it, doesn’t mean that I can’t control it. An ultimate war weapon, or to be accurate, the Golden Ray Armor! The Vestigial Tribe’s greatest power…”
Merlin’s voice reverberated across the Void Zone. Although time and s.p.a.ce did not exist, everyone could hear Merlin’s voice. This was the power of a different level altogether, a power that struck fear in the hearts of the ultimate existences.
“You actually obtained the ultimate war weapon, that is our Atlan civilization’s…”
The mysterious Marshal could not bear to imagine it any further. He knew very well how well hidden the ultimate war weapon was. It was inside the crystal wall that was most prized by the Senate and the Army. If was not possible to obtain the ultimate war weapon, unless the hopes.h.i.+p was destroyed.
“The Void Zone will no longer have the Atlan civilization!”
Merlin’s golden eyes flashed mercilessly. With that, he gently curled his hand into a fist.
“Bang”.
The powerful dimension-level wars.h.i.+p exploded instantly, turning into blazing flames amidst the Void Zone…
