Chapter 461 Odin’s Revenge

Chapter 461 Odin's Revenge

The entire sequence, from beginning to end, unfolded flawlessly, resulting in the clean decapitation of the Quetzalcoatl, and witnessing Alex execute it with such finesse left both players and viewers perplexed, leaving them dumbfounded as they search for an explanation.

While Zero explained the setup to the waivers, providing clarity to them, the players were left on their own to make sense of what they had just witnessed.

Alex had used the void walk, very much erasing his presence for the instant he was moving through the folds of space, and while it did leave ripples in the space, it was not something noticeable if one was not focussed on it.

The Quetzalcoatl and players knew Alex had the phantom walk that increased his speed but was something they could keep track of with their senses, and the other ability was instant teleportation that was even easier to keep track of because of the dark throwing knife.

It was the reason the players expected Alex to use the space slash followed by a sword slash to deal as much damage as possible, while the creature only expected the direct attack coming at him, so when Alex disappeared from their senses, all of them were caught off guard.

However, the same trick would not work again on the Quetzalcoatl, at least not as well as it did the first time, but now Alex also did not need to worry about landing another such big hit because the single decapitation earned him 5.2% damage.

After delivering the slash, Alex quickly distanced himself from the Quetzalcoatl just as a massive burst of golden flames and tendrils of lightning erupted from the creature.

The players quickly broke free from their surprise as every other player rushed forth or prepared a ranged attack, taking advantage of the momentary vulnerability of the creature as it recovered.

"Sumoner, that was awesome," Fulgor said as he appeared next to him.

"Why are you not attacking?" Alex questioned, seeing Fulgor showing no interest in attacking the Quetzalcoatl, which was completely different from a few seconds ago, as he was throwing elemental attacks every chance he got.

"What the fun in attacking an already down opponent," Fulgor replied as if it was a matter of fact.

Alex was not really surprised by the answer because he had seen Fulgor incapacitate players who came at him but never go on to deliver the finishing blow.

Alex was certain that Fulgor was concealing his true strength, which was evidenced by his lack of sustained damage so far, and with his insane maneuverability, he was dancing around the battlefield, laughing as he slipped past the attacks, and was more or less just having fun against the Quetzalcoatl.

There was also his ability to transmute his body to pure lightning, which he showed in the beginning and has yet to use in the battle.

However, as Fulgor was a summon, he had the freedom to perform as he pleased if he was fulfilling the given task, and whether he gave his full effort or not was entirely up to him, and even as the summoner, Alex had no control over it.

"Hey, Ruler, I have a message for your organization and Aeon," Odin said, his deep voice cutting through the chaos.

'What are they up to now?' Alex thought as he saw the bruised and bloodied Ra, followed by Anubis, Seth, and Osiris, rushing toward the Quetzalcoatl, while Thor and Balder took a defensive stance before Odin.

"My guild suffered humiliation when your organization destroyed my home city, and it happened because I was too weak to defend it, too weak to even stand my ground against that monster,"

"The haunting memory of that humiliating defeat only fueled my determination to grow stronger, and I owe it to Aeon for pushing me beyond the confines of my comfort zone, propelling me out of my small bubble of being one of the strongest," Odin said, and Alex listened silently.

"Your defeat is my small revenge," Odin said, as there was a sudden shift in his aura, a blood-curling aura of malice and dread oozing out from his figure.

'Where have I seen this before?' Alex questioned, sensing the surging crimson aura brimming with vitality.

Alex felt Odin's strength diminishing, so he instinctively cast an appraisal on him, witnessing his level rapidly plummet from 400, and seeing it, he realized why the aura seemed familiar as memories of a dreaded and broken skill flooded his mind.

'Life-Blood Sacrifice,'

The simple name came to his mind, a skill that he recalled very clearly because it belonged to the Blood King, one of the eleven kings crowned among the players.

A sole skill that made an average player at best one of the eleven kings, a title worth more than the leading position in top-ranked guilds.

The 'Life-Blood Sacrifice' was a broken skill simply because it allowed the user to permanently sacrifice a certain number of his levels to either empower himself or concentrate all the energy into a single attack.

The only limitation was that no more than 100 levels could be sacrificed at a single time, which translated to an entire Rank, so the higher the user Rank, the stronger the enhancement or attack would be.

The user suffered from heavy debuffs, but they were never permanent, only lasting for a certain period, making the skill broken on many levels and seeing Odin use it, Alex couldn't help but inhale sharply.

'A spear that never misses its mark, and a skill that could create an ultimate attack that could give trouble to opponents of multiple ranks higher than the user,'

'What a F***ing broken Combination,' Alex thought as he watched the golden spear getting cloaked in a crimson aura that grew denser by the instant.
