Chapter 54 War Begins
Chapter 54 War Begins
"Because I'm going to kill a god."
As Ye Xiao uttered those words.
Erica was somewhat incredulous, after all, gods weren't so easy to kill.
Meanwhile, Vereslana in the air and Mercado standing on the ground seemed to have heard something interesting.
A demon dared to dream of killing a god.
"A mere demon dares to interfere in the war of the gods?" Mercado's voice boomed, his tone full of disdain.
"An interesting demon," Veleslana remarked, then continued, "You are the first demon to show interest in us who do not obey our gods."
Why would Vereslana say that?
That's because only by killing a god in human form can one obtain the power of the slain god.
If all living beings could kill God and gain power.
Then all the weak gods in the world will be hunted down, after all, even a small mosquito is still meat.
That's why these rules came about.
Non-humans gain nothing from killing gods; instead, they will be remembered by those gods and will come looking for them when they are resurrected from mythology.
Rather than being endlessly bothered, it's better to ignore it.
Similarly, only humans can enter the realm of the immortals and encounter Pandora.
Unfortunately, Ye Xiao is no ordinary person.
He's a time traveler, and a time traveler with a system at that.
He's like a bug in the system.
Therefore, none of these rules and regulations apply to him.
"That's right, I'm interested in you disobedient gods." Ye Xiao said, a confident smile appearing on his lips. "Of course, killing gods requires resources, but it just so happens that I have the resources to be arrogant."
After saying that, a surging and powerful aura erupted from Ye Xiao's body, and boundless magic power surged wildly, seemingly inexhaustible.
The pressure was directed directly at Vereslana and Mercado.
Mercado sensed this imposing aura: "Hahaha, interesting demon, I admit you are worthy to fight us!"
Vereslana exclaimed as if he'd spotted a new toy: "Interesting! So interesting! I hope you can give me some fun battles!"
For Vereslana, he only challenges the strong.
So he awakened Mercado from mythology, just to fight him, but he never expected that there would be an extra surprise today.
Ye Xiao, who was standing in front of him, was his second target.
"I am the demon Ye Xiao/Abel Astaroth! I am the future demon king, the present god slayer."
"War-loving gods! I will grant defeat!"
His words were filled with strong confidence.
At this moment, the three powers are in a stalemate, and none of them will help the others.
This proves the saying true: either you kill me, or I kill you.
"Hahaha! How dare you! A mere demon dares to dream of defeating a god!"
Mercado smiled, then his eyes turned serious and authoritative.
"I am Mercado! The strongest dragon slayer, the greatest warrior among the god-kings, and the god-king himself! I accept your challenge!"
"That's quite an arrogant statement."
Vereslana's face lost its previous gentleness, replaced by the arrogance of a war god.
"As the invincible god of victory, I fear no challenge, and I will accept all challenges!"
Vereslana and Mercado unleashed their divine auras, and Ye Xiao, not to be outdone, pressed down with all his own aura.
The three forces clashed.
At this moment, the sky was divided into three areas.
Storms, lightning, and pure white.
The ongoing storm suddenly stopped, followed by an even more violent burst of energy.
The storm generated by the momentum became even more ferocious.
The storm raged, with sand and stones flying everywhere.
The entire island was affected; trees were uprooted, and the ground began to crack.
The surrounding space seemed to be distorted.
Erica, standing nearby, barely managed to withstand the force of the attack thanks to a protective shield formed by her own magic.
"This...is this the aura of a god of disobedience? It's so powerful, and...and the handsome guy who saved me is also incredibly powerful."
Erica sighed, but then suddenly realized something was wrong.
"No...this can't go on, or the whole island will be destroyed! What do we do? What do we do!?"
She panicked when she saw the damaged island, and the island's residents closed their doors and windows, praying that the storm would pass safely.
Erica tried to go forward, but was blown away in no time.
After being blown a distance, it continued forward against the wind.
Ye Xiao narrowed his eyes. Sure enough, it was a bit of a stretch to fight against two disobedient gods at the same time.
However, the white horse also possesses the abilities of Prometheus, so it should be able to defeat the two guys in front of it.
Ye Xiao's lips curled up, and then his eyes hardened.
It's just killing gods.
I'm going to kill two gods today!
"A demon with such a spirit, I'll tentatively acknowledge you!"
"Then! Veleslana and the unknown demon, let's have a great battle!"
Mercado laughed, his voice echoing through the heavens and earth.
At the same time, He has already made his move.
His targets were none other than Vereslana and Ye Xiao.
He gripped two wooden sticks tightly in his hands and then swung them at the two men.
In an instant, one side was struck by thunder, while the other side was swept by a whirlwind.
Everything possesses unparalleled destructive power.
These two wooden sticks are Mercado's weapons.
One represents the banisher of lightning, the other the pursuer of the wind.
It has such destructive power with just a simple swing.
If the fighting takes place in a city, that town will be reduced to ruins.
"Wow...that's incredible strength. Is it really possible for a human to kill them?"
Erica watched this scene from a hidden spot.
Now she no longer prayed that the island could be preserved; she only hoped that they wouldn't run into the town to fight.
Otherwise, even more people would have died.
"Hahaha! Mercado, as expected of you, such a powerful attack is still quite enjoyable!"
Facing the exiled Vereslana, who was swinging a thunderbolt at him, he also unleashed his arrogant side.
"I am the strongest and hold all victory in my hands, whether human or demon—I will crush the hostility of all enemies, and I will destroy any foe that stands in my way!"
Vereslana then responded to his old friend's attack.
He swung his fist at the exile who was many times larger than himself.
Ye Xiao watched as the pursuers hurtled towards him.
"Hahaha, this is the kind of battle we should be fighting!"
Ye Xiao showed no fear whatsoever, and his long-dormant passion began to boil again.
An annihilating power emerges.
The fist was enveloped by Gurefia's power.
Then, like Vereslana, he did not dodge but went to meet her, and at the same time, Prometheus's power was activated.
Is it a "storm"?
I accept it!
