Chapter 1049 Failed Divine Weapon: Apollo
-----
An experiment originally made to become a Divine Weapon.
Hundreds of humans were sacrificed, but they all failed. They could not transform, and they could not become a Divine Weapon.
However, the wicked mind of the God Aeolus had another idea, to combine as many failures as he could, into a single entity.
This entity, he called "Apollo", the Artificial Sun.
It was obvious the God was attempting to become as strong as the Chief Gods by refining the power of Apollo.
But the hundreds of human souls contained within Apollo would simply not obey him forever...Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
As they grew stronger, they managed to hack through the building's internal computer, freeing themselves from the restrains.
They attacked and destroyed as much as possible, the souls unified as a single entity that desired to become a god, and with this power, slay the gods.
But they failed, the Gods were much stronger, it only took them a single technique to slay him, despite having eaten several Lesser Gods...
And Aeolus and Fiere are still considered just servants of the Chief Gods.
Just how strong are these monsters?
Apollo was defeated, torn to pieces and left to rot for thousands of years.
Until we arrived at Sunstone Plateau.
And we were now facing what was left of them...
Over eons of being abandoned, Apollo took the form of all the bodies its souls once had, resembling a near-endless mass of dismembered bodies.
It would have been more horrifying if it wasn't for the fact it was made mostly of Sunstone Crystals...
However, at its core, there were hundreds of skeletons, unified into some sort of black crystal, the source of its power.
It is that place where most likely all the agonizing souls of these people gather their hatred and fear, turning it into power.
Apollo might have looked even worse in the past, but now it has most likely recovered a lot of its former strength, and naturally, it wasn't going to be a weak foe to face.
"GRRRHHH..."
It groaned, the sound of countless human screams echoing within its jaws.
[Time Limit: 3 Hours.]
A Quest popped up in that moment, it required only three hours, and the rewards weren't even shown either... But I was sure they would be plentiful if we had to defeat a Tier 10 monster.
And just like before, I'll help them break through that barrier!
"Sylphy, everyone, stay behind us. Can you help us out like you did before?" My mother asked me, relying on our strength.
Since Eastgrain that they have relied on us, and then against Arachne, and now in this moment, against a Divine Weapon imbued with the Divinity of the Gods.
"Okay! Leave it to us." I nodded. "Everyone, can we do it like before?" I asked them.
"Alright!"
Everyone agreed immediately, their Auras surging from their bodies swiftly after.
"[Yggdragon's Combined Aura]!"
FLASH!
I conjured my own Yggdragon Aura, coating all my friends with it to give them some bonus stats.
Additionally, Red and Green colored Dragon Spirits surged from my Aura. The Green Ones quickly went to support us, floating around our bodies to either heal or buff us.
Meanwhile, the red ones rushed towards Apollo, attacking and distracting it.
The Combined Aura only lasts around fifty minutes after the Skill has leveled up a lot, but even then, it was still a limited amount of time.
We had to do this quickly!
"Celica, Celeste, Zephy, Lara, Mist, I'm counting on your long-
ranged attacks! Try to weaken the soul of Apollo as much as possible!" I commanded them, the Yggdragon Combined Auras harmonizing perfectly with their own.
As they nodded, the rest quickly followed me from behind, as I leaped into action with them and my parents.
"The rest, follow me!"
I unsheathed Scarlet, harnessing Mana Disruption and then Void Energy into her sword, suddenly turning her deep black in color.
SLAAASH!
