Chapter 966: Chapter 728 Giant Equipment
"Courting death!"
Adaman’s heavy punch, infused with lethal magic, was one he was confident would shatter Long Yi’s arm outright!
But! Long Yi had no intention of taking the punch head-on! He quickly sidestepped, grabbed Adaman’s wrist, and twisted with astonishing brute force. There was a clear snap, and Adaman’s arm was forcibly broken by Long Yi!
Almost simultaneously, Long Yi’s other hand chopped down fiercely, severing the twisted arm completely!
Struggling to retreat, Adaman’s face turned ashen. Meanwhile, the arm in Long Yi’s hand suddenly vanished. Adaman’s arm was restored, and in the stands, hundreds of people’s arms broke at the same time!
In Long Yi’s hand remained only the golden armguard. Feeling the Giant’s power within, it didn’t take long for him to understand exactly what this object was.
The weapon that Adaman valued so much was actually an item called the All-Purpose Tool, invented by Giants purely to replace all other tools when they needed to repair or manufacture things.
This tool could transform into any other tool, even protective gear.
However, as a tool, its own defensive abilities were actually not that high, which was why Long Yi and Ai Lin had been able to breach its defenses repeatedly.
Once Giant’s power was infused, the piece of the armguard left in Long Yi’s hand immediately morphed into a cubical structure. Long Yi glanced at it and tossed it back to Adaman with a smile, "Let’s continue."
Adaman caught it, his face still ashen.
If he were Long Yi, he surely would have destroyed that part to weaken his strength, but Long Yi did not do so, clearly underestimating him!
Armguard restored, Adaman’s eyes darkened. He had once thought himself the pinnacle of strength in this Plane, unbeatable by any other than the mysterious Mages of the Mage Tower, and that no other Ancient Powerhouse could possibly be his match. But now, these two youths who’d suddenly emerged had completely overturned his understanding. Long Yi and Ai Lin were not only strong, they were unbelievably so, and perversely strong at that!
What was more, either of them, when facing Adaman alone, could completely dominate him! The only advantage he had over Long Yi and Ai Lin was his magic intensity. Yes, within this arena, Adaman had gathered the Mana of all his disciples, which had boosted his Mana to unprecedented levels. But the biggest problem was that Adaman’s own level of magic was not that great. He was a close-combat Magic Fighter! And to make matters worse, Ai Lin even had a counter for Magic Fighters!
Damn it all!
At that moment, Landers was also in the spectators’ stands. Yet, he remained unaffected by the arena’s magic, not because of Adaman’s benevolence, but because Landers had already guessed Adaman’s plan and thus came prepared. Although he could not leave, he could ensure he would not be injured, and likewise, his Mana was not being siphoned to Adaman.
Right then, Landers felt seething anger. He knew Adaman was never a good person, but his crazed lengths to kill Long Yi, to which he couldn’t reconcile, went too far. Those killed by Long Yi at the beginning did so willingly, so there was nothing to say. But now those who had died or were seriously injured were controlled and acted unconsciously.
While Landers held discontent towards Adaman, what shocked him even more were Long Yi and Ai Lin’s strengths. Facing Adaman, they showed no signs of being at a disadvantage, and on the contrary, they managed to kill Adaman multiple times!
Yes! If not for the magic protection of this arena, Adaman would have died countless times over by now!
Could it be that Adaman was truly going to fall here today?
Yet, Landers thought otherwise because Adaman had yet to reveal his trump cards!
Adaman knew if things continued this way, death was the only end awaiting him; some things could no longer remain hidden.
A personal space opened, and a massive altar thundered down, not the usual Giant equipment’s dark gold color, but made of rocky material, with countless fragments of Cosmic Stones embedded within.
Adaman landed on the altar, and all Cosmic Stone fragments instantly burst into dazzling light. Then, a myriad of magic spells rained down like a torrential downpour!
"The Throne of Magic!" Saint Jialin suddenly bellowed, his eyes bloodshot as he stared down below.
"You recognize it?" Saint Danze asked, surprised, since even he had never seen it before; how could Saint Jialin recognize it?
Saint Jialin shook his head but looked even more disturbed, "I don’t recognize it, I’ve never even seen it. But my father mentioned once, a hundred years ago, when the last Giant’s legacy appeared, he acquired an altar that could unleash countless magic spells instantly once Mana was poured into it. He named this altar the Throne of Magic, implying that anyone with this altar could cast spells like a king of magic. But not long after, the Throne of Magic was stolen!"
```
"Could it be!"
"That’s right, even if the thief is not Adaman himself, it certainly must be one of his disciples. In any case, this thing that originally belonged to me, has appeared in his hands."
Saint Jialin had never hoped as much as now for Adaman to be killed by Long Yi, because there was something else he hadn’t mentioned. His father had fallen seriously ill due to the theft of the Magic Throne, and though he had been cured, the illness left residual effects, ultimately leading to his premature death.
For many years, Saint Jialin had been investigating the whereabouts of the Magic Throne, but he had never expected it to appear here. No wonder he could never find it; after all, once it fell into the hands of an ancient powerhouse, how many people in this plane could continue the search?
Below, facing an onslaught of magic attacks like a storm, the Red Demon Scorpion decisively took on the tank role. Its rune armor provided excellent resistance against any magic, and Ai Lin cast another protective spell on the scorpion. Not just Ai Lin, but Little Zi and her thirteen avatars also cast spells simultaneously, further enhancing the Red Demon Scorpion’s defense. With such multi-layered protection, the Red Demon Scorpion had never felt so sturdy before. It charged forward against the magic, allowing all spells to bombard its body.
Under the multiple protections, the Red Demon Scorpion feared no magic. It not only protected everyone behind it, but its toxic beam was fired directly!
At that moment, Adaman once again pulled out a huge dark-golden shield from his personal space! Upon seeing the shield, Long Yi couldn’t help but laugh, for it was indeed part of the Giant’s armament!
Everything else is fine, but dare to use my own things against me?
When the toxic beam of the Red Demon Scorpion hit the shield, the surface of the shield rippled, completely blocking the beam’s damage!
"My Giant’s shield!" This time, it was Saint Danze’s turn to be flabbergasted.
This was also an issue of the previous generation; Saint Danze’s father had obtained this Giant’s shield, which could block almost any attack. But not long after, the shield mysteriously disappeared, and this time, the thief was caught. The thief turned out to be a guard close to the Emperor, who had used hypnosis to make the Emperor take the shield out of his personal space and put it into his own.
But that’s as far as the matter went, as for where that invincible shield ultimately went, it vanished without a trace.
And now, Adaman had shown through his actions that the shield was with him!
"Excellent, really excellent. This old bastard, he just doesn’t see anyone else in his eyes!"
Saint Danze was shivering with rage. At the beginning, he might have somewhat gloated over Saint Jialin’s situation, but now he was completely united with him in their hatred for Adaman.
Meanwhile, behind the Red Demon Scorpion, Ai Lin had already prepared a new magic!
Suddenly, a huge Array opened up in the sky, and an immense amount of Mana began to condense within it. Then, an enormous Light Sword fell straight from the sky!
Adaman had never seen such a magic! This magic wasn’t even constituted by the normal components magic should have! Could this be Giant magic? Adaman didn’t know, but what he did know was that ordinary defenses could not possibly withstand it!
The Giant’s shield quickly flew into the sky, and the Light Sword struck it, vibrating with magic, and made a deafening roar. Right below the shield, Adaman felt an incredible pressure. The power of the Light Sword was so great that even though it was blocked by the shield, it still produced such immense pressure!
But without the shield’s obstruction, the Red Demon Scorpion’s attack was unimpeded—Boom!
The toxic beam hit Adaman directly, causing excruciating pain. The magic being cast from the Magic Throne paused for a moment, and during that brief instant, Long Yi had already swung his Cosmic Stone Greatsword, striking with a destructive arc!
Adaman quickly deployed a shield in an attempt to block it, but Little Zi and her thirteen avatars simultaneously broke through his shield with their thunder strikes. But Long Yi’s destructive arc did not hit Adaman, instead, it struck the altar at Adaman’s feet. Although the altar could cast magic at a fearsome speed, its structure was merely rock. After the strike, the altar crumbled to pieces. Adaman fell to the ground, gasping for air.
At that instant, the Light Sword above exploded with a horrific impact that sent the Giant’s shield soaring away, and the Giant’s strength flowing over it had nearly been depleted!
"What else do you have?"
Long Yi walked over to the side of the shield and, without saying a word, took it into his personal space. The surge of joy that emerged from the shield as soon as it was taken confirmed that it was indeed part of the Giant’s armament.
Adaman’s expression grew colder. He realized that if he did not use his ultimate move now, his life might indeed be lost here today! (To be continued.
