Chapter 898

Chapter 898

The entire world was now thrown into deep chaos.

The Transcendentals Holy Land was the dungeon with the highest level of difficulty ever recorded in the history of Athenae. But at the beginning, everyone dismissed it, saying, Its nothing. after seeing the level of its mini-bosses. However, their thoughts immediately took a complete 180 after seeing the Labyrinth of Death.

After seeing the Labyrinth of Death, they firmly believed that this dungeon, with its elite mobs and mini-bosses with ridiculously high levels, was the most difficult. After all, it was a place where even the Great Luvien Empire was suffering.

However, something extraordinary happened. Player Ethan suddenly appeared and led a group of armored weapons to attack and slaughter the troops of the Luvien Imperial Army. Because of that, there was a lot of buzz among the viewers.

[Ethan is one of the Transcendentals Holy Land mobs?]

[No. Ethan is an armored weapon pilot. He is a player.]

[So why is he leading those armored weapons inside that dungeon?]

There were quite a lot of speculations going around. However, this one stood out the most among the people's wildest beliefs. Why? Because it was the most realistic.

[Ethan had been kicked out of the Luvien Empire just recently. However, he wasnt removed and excluded as a member of the empire just yet. After being kicked out, Ethan wanted revenge and probably searched for armored weapons.]

Everyone turned their attention to focus on this story.

[Ethan, who searched for armored weapons, found them inside the Transcendentals Holy Land and signed a contract with the Transcendental Being.]

[Oh. That makes sense.]

[Yes, thats the most realistic explanation.]

[Ethans not yet excluded from the Luvien Empire. Yes. That explains why he can enter the dungeon and why he is standing among the Imperial Army.]

[He must have been hiding among them.]

However, that theory was soon torn apart. Why? The last thing Ethan did before he collapsed was put on the cape carrying the Beyond the Heavens Empire symbol.

[...?]

[...?]

[...?]

Everyone was at a loss for a moment. They just could not understand what just happened.

Then, the Transcendental Being that appeared and sent Duke Ruffiso flying away with one swing of his sword emerged from the flames left behind by the armored weapons explosion. And just like Ethan, he was also wearing the Beyond the Heavens Empire symbol.

[Dont tell me]

[Ey.]

[Thats impossible.]

[Thats a bit]

[No. That doesnt even make any sense.]

[Then, lets all think about it for a moment. Does this mean that Beyond the Heavens Emperor Minhyuk also came to the Transcendentals Holy Land and signed a contract with the Transcendental Being?]

[Didnt we discuss that the Transcendental Being signed a contract with Ethan?]

[Thats right.]

[Ill just believe this one and leave it be.]

[No. Im telling you, this is impossible!]

The viewers went wild and flooded the comments section as they focused on their screen to watch the confrontation between the Luvien Empire and the Transcendental Being.

***

Everyone was tense and nervous. The 185-centimeter tall and silver-haired Transcendental Being looked like an older man. However, he gave off a fresh and energetic feeling with the white robe on his body and the sword in his hand.

Gulp

Bastien gulped dryly and asked the man standing beside him, How high are the chances that the guy over there is Minhyuk?

Maybe 15%? No, 20%? Ah, no. Maybe 4%?

What bullshit are you talking about?

I dont know either.

Right. To be honest, I also dont know.

All of them were left in doubt with the situation in front of them. They almost entertained the idea that Minhyuk might have accidentally received a quest related to the Transcendentals Holy Land, which was why the Transcendental Being was wearing a robe carrying the Beyond the Heavens Empire pattern on his back.

No. That doesnt make any sense.

However, the theory that Minhyuk was the Transcendental Being also did not make any sense.

The Sword of the Gods looked around. They saw that approximately 15,000 troops of the Luvien Imperial Army had disappeared from the Transcendental Beings previous attack. Now, there were only about 80,000 troops left. However, thankfully enough, the remaining forces were the most prominent figures of the empire. Most of the Sword of the Gods were also alive and well.

Its impossible to be Minhyuk, right? Even if Minhyuk is very strong, do you think he can deal with Duke Ruffiso and us alone?

Right?

Although they did not know why the Transcendental Being wore a robe carrying the Beyond the Heavens Empire symbol, this fact remained.

Meanwhile, Duke Ruffiso was frowning. What the hell is happening?

There were quite a few things that Ruffiso could not understand. However, he decided that killing the Transcendental Being was far more critical than figuring it out immediately.

Bastien, the number one summoner, rode on top of his Divine Beast.

Lets beat him up first!

With those words, more than 30,000 summoned beasts jumped out and charged forward to kill the Transcendental Being.

Click

It seemed like it was timed perfectly when the duration of the Absolute Defense was lifted. Minhyuk immediately turned around, his sword clashing against Duke Ruffisos own. The two engaged in a fierce clash of swords.

I already received the effects of my buff dishes, but I still cant overwhelm you?!

The power that one of the strongest in the world, Duke Ruffiso, could wield was stronger than Minhyuk had expected. However, there was a bigger problem at hand.

Staaaaaaab

An arrow stabbed through Minhyuks back as he fought against Duke Ruffiso.

Ugh!

Duke Ruffiso quickly took advantage of the moment Minhuks balance was broken to drive his sword through him.

[Your HP has dropped below 65%!]

Alex and the mages immediately followed up with a bombardment of magical attacks.

Bang Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!

[Your HP has dropped below 45%!]

If Ruffisos power were within Minhyuks expectations, then the winner of this battle would most definitely be Minhyuk. However, the dukes power went beyond his expectations.

Damn it! If only I could summon the puppet doll..!

Viels Puppet Doll was Minhyuks strongest damage dealer. His presence would be enough to deter and block the Swords of the Gods from interfering with his fight against Duke Ruffiso. However, when Minhyuk became the boss monster, he was only allowed to get the help of the players and his vassals. Even though his puppet and pets were under his ownership, he still could not use them inside the dungeon.

Although he was stuck in a very desperate situation, Minhyuk could not back down. Why couldnt he back down? This was because some people tried their hardest for his sake and endured being called the awkward name of Fragment in this place. And if they could not win this battle, then there was a high chance that the Beyond the Heavens Empire would continue to be pushed back by the Luvien Empire. If that happened, the only future for them was their downfall.

Baaaaaasaaaang!

Minhyuk was sent rolling on the ground after he received another bombardment of magic.

[Your HP has dropped below 30%!]

[Controlling your body will become harder!]

Duke Ruffiso knew that victory was close when he saw his enemy stumbling and struggling to stand. Dont give him any room to breathe! Just push him a bit more, and this battle will end!

As long as they did not give the Transcendental Being enough room to cast his skills, they could kill him. However, at that moment, a notification rang in Minhyuks ears.

[...has entered!]

...!

A smile slowly formed on Minhyuks face, a smile that appeared on the old face of the Transcendental Being. He squeezed the last of his strength and ran in the middle of his enemies. Then, he immediately cast the Supreme Overlords Technique that he had saved using his Save skill.

Baaaaaaaaaang!

At that moment, another storm of blazing white flames engulfed the enemies around Minhyuk.

[A total of 979,890 troops of the Luvien Imperial Army have died!]

***

Hundreds of cameras turned to focus on the white flames that appeared once again and devoured the Luvien Imperial Army. The camera showed how the fire killed 20,000 of the troops all at once. However, the flames soon died down and disappeared.

Seeing this scene, the commentators hurriedly shouted at the top of their lungs.

[Look! The Swords of the Gods escaped the attack's aftermath by squeezing behind Valentinos massive shield!]

[They are high rankers! They are not fools that would be hit by the same attack twice!]

[The Transcendental Being has burned tens of thousands of enemies. However, you have to know that the only thing he could do was reduce the number of his enemies. Nothing more, nothing less.]

[Duke Ruffiso was able to pull himself out of the range of the flames quickly!]

[Now, all thats left is to wait for the death of the Transcendentals Holy Lands boss monster, the Transcendental Being.]

That was right. They could tell that the Transcendental Being had squeezed the last of his strength to burn tens of thousands of the imperial armys troops. However, this previous hurrah did not damage the Swords of the Gods or Duke Ruffiso.

Its only a matter of time before we kill the Transcendental Being.

The remaining Swords of the Gods ultimately agreed with Valentinos declaration. However, at that moment, the hundreds of cameras floating all over the place caught something entering the dungeons in a flash.

[Wh- what was that?!]

[What was that thing that moved so swiftly like that?!]

The commentators could only catch the flash of movement because they could see the overall situation with the cameras. As for the Swords of the Gods? They were utterly clueless, waiting quietly for the white flames to disappear around them.

Spurt!

Then, at that moment, blood suddenly spurted from all over God of Archery Miaos body.

Huh? Before she could even realize what happened, Valentino appeared right in front of her.

Whats the matter?

Spurt!

But before he could even finish his words, blood had already started spurting out of his body. Well, to be exact, blood spurted from the bodies of the Swords of the Gods hiding behind Valentinos huge shield.

The cameras did not take too long to show the figure of the unknown being that attacked the Swords of the Gods in a flash. Just like the Transcendental Being, the man, whose face was covered except for his eyes, had long black hair that reached his waist, was wearing a white yet blood-stained robe, and held a sword in his hand. However, they could tell that the man was relatively short compared to the Transcendental Being, reaching only 160 centimeters in height.

Meanwhile, these notifications rang in the ears of the Transcendental Being.

[Sword God Conir has entered the Transcendentals Holy Land!]

[Sword God Conir is recognized as a mini-boss level being!]

[Transcendental Beings Fragment Goneir. Level 776.]

Through the gaps in the mysterious beings long black hair, they could see that his eyes were cold and sharp. He glared at the enemies and said, I am the Sword God.
