Chapter 1739: Chapter 1555: Against the King of Monsters 1



In a blink of an eye, several days had swiftly passed.

At long last, a unanimous decision was reached by the esteemed assembly of the World Council, comprising all influential figures across the globe. It was decreed that two formidable rankers would venture forth to confront the formidable swallowing beast to test the water. These two individuals served as the very backbone of the mighty Drexian Empire. Despite the fact that Maria and the other individuals possessed higher levels and greater power, it was deemed prudent not to deploy them at this time. It was essential to remember that the true adversary, Bahamut, and the Chaos Organization had yet to make their appearance. Therefore, it was imperative to conserve their strength and refrain from acting hastily.

Nightfall descended.

The deep, abyssal ocean resonated with ominous roars, while the winds howled relentlessly, shrouding everything in darkness. And amidst this tumultuous backdrop, the most dreaded adversary of humanity, the swallowing monster, clashed in a fierce battle against Elliot and Marcus, the esteemed rankers known as the Lightning God!

A thunderous rumble echoed through the air!

With lightning speed, Elliot and Marcus unleashed their most formidable techniques, exclusive to those blessed with the power of domains. Without the mastery of their own domains, such skills would remain beyond their reach.

In an instant, Elliot's entire being, including his spear, was engulfed in an ethereal black radiance.

Meanwhile, Marcus's form was veiled in a serpent-like green luminescence.

The two warriors transformed into beams of light, hurtling towards the swallowing monster from opposite directions. Suspended mid-air, the monster's dark eyes glinted coldly as it beheld the approaching humans. From its perspective, these two individuals were mere ants, albeit slightly stronger than the countless others who had attempted to challenge its might. The swallowing monster's arrogance proved its undoing. While it underestimated their raw power, it failed to account for the unique synergy between Elliot and Marcus.

Elliot, empowered by his Earth and Water domain, arrived first. The ground rumbled as he planted his spear, causing a series of earthen walls to erupt from the ocean floor, momentarily restraining the beast's monstrous maw. These weren't mere walls, but fortifications imbued with the ocean's immense pressure, making them incredibly tough.

From the other side, Marcus, the Lightning God, zipped past the walls, a blur of emerald light. His attack wasn't a direct assault, but a masterfully crafted web of crackling lightning. The tendrils of electricity snaked around the creature, not harming it directly, but overloading its nervous system.

"Be careful!"

Elliot and Marcus's expressions turned grave as the entire world watched this scene through a magical satellite. The onlookers' faces filled with concern, for they were all too familiar with the golden horned beast's unique ability - the power to devour.

Rumbling with determination, Elliot and Marcus swiftly executed their pre-planned strategy, flying in unison towards the same destination. Against all odds, they remained united. The golden horned beast's eyes locked onto these two tiny specks, its rage intensifying. These insignificant humans were practically begging for their lives to be taken. The creature believed it could swallow them one by one, but now that they were together, it could devour them both in a single strike.

"Chi chi..."

The formless space expanded, covering an area of several hundred meters and enveloping Elliot and Marcus within its grasp.

"Brother-in-law," Marcus's expression shifted slightly.

"Hmph."

Elliot, with a wave of his hand, utilized the power of the Earth element to create and condense

a massive quantity of black metal between himself and the devouring monster.

Author's Note: Just for your information, both Elliot and Marcus are peak Demigod rankers, meaning they were on the verge of reaching Level 200. However, they were unable to surpass this level due to the curse that has enveloped the world. Their actual levels are 195 and 194,

respectively.
