"The Bloody Sun!" The God Shesmu stated as all the blood in the surroundings flowed towards the large red ball that is bigger than the dome that was created earlier.
"Master, if that attack descends then there is a large chance that all of our current allies will die." Paradox reported as it calculated the damage that it can do using what Adrian could sense from the attack.
"You are correct which is why we would need to destroy it before it descends. Big Bang!" Adrian stated as his spear is suddenly filled with immense energy.
The energy that swirled around Adrian took the appearance of small crystals. If one were to look at him from afar then they would see that he collected these crystals like he has an orbit. The small crystals looked like stars that gathered around a mass which was Adrian.
All of this energy is then transferred on top of the spear as Adrian twirled it to gather everything. The spear would then glow in a powerful light, and it looked like it was about to burst. Adrian collected as much of these small crystals, and it made the glow of the spear brighter.
"Descend and pay for your sins!" The God Shesmu commanded as the Bloody Sun started to descend onto the ground.
"Big Bang!" Adrian shouted once more as he hurled his spear towards the Bloody Sun.
The Bloody Sun descended at a fast pace but that does not mean that the players cannot escape. The only problem is that the God Shesmu suddenly created some jars that has some sort of perfume mixture. All the substances inside the jars suddenly turned into some sort of mist that spread another dome towards all of them.
The God Shesmu created another barrier that trapped all of the players inside to make sure that they will not be able to run away. There were some players that managed to escape earlier as the ones they were fighting were killed by Adrian's Nether Explosion. Those that are trapped were those that have been fighting against the Followers of Apophis that turned into serpent humanoids.
The players immediately knew that they must defend against the attack as much as they could or else, they will surely die. All of them used their life saving skills as they knew that they would not be able to use it as they will die from the Bloody Sun. Even Adrian had to recall Saena from the skies as she would be hit first.
"Charon!" Adrian shouted as he wanted to see if Charon could slow down the Bloody Sun.
Charon immediately knew what his master wanted and sent some of its chains towards the Bloody Sun, but they were not able to stop it. It did not take long for the Bloody Sun to descend and the Big Bang skill that Adrian used to hit one another. The spear collided with the huge blood sphere and exploded in such a powerful way that it created a powerful shockwave that sent some of the players flying.
The Bloody Sun was impacted by the Big Bang skill that created a powerful explosion of stars. The blood sphere could be seen to have decrease in size which made the players somewhat confident but that was shattered when they saw another one coming down on them. The God Shesmu created another one with his own power as the blood needed for this skill was immense.
"All of you shall die in the sea of blood that I will create. Let the sacrifice of my followers be the fuel for your demise." The God Shesmu proclaimed as he sent another Bloody Sun towards the ground.
Charon knew that it will not be able to stop this on its own which is why he decided to maximize the health and mana siphoning. He made sure to push all of the life essence that it stole to all the players in the surroundings. Most of all, Charon immediately returned to his master and covered him in chains.
Adrian actually commanded Charon to not do such thing as he wanted to try his luck, but Charon would not have it. Charon sensed something different from the attack which is why it made sure to use its life to defend its master. Charon released every chain that it could and covered the entire area that Adrian was in.
"Futile attempt even for an undead." The God Shesmu stated as the Bloody Sun finally descended.
One would think that the Bloody Sun would explode as it touched the ground, but it actually turned into a powerful wave of blood that washed over every living being in the surroundings. The players that did not have a lifesaving skill screamed in pain as their flesh literally melted as the blood in their system was added to the bloody tide.
This attack did not only sweep through the players but even the Followers of Apophis are affected by this as well. All the Followers of Apophis that became serpent monsters are turned into fuel for the spell as well. Awraka saw this and immediately knew that they could no longer unseal the barrier stone as any follower of Apophis has turned into a bloody mess.
The bloody tide swept across Adrian as well, but he was protected by the chains that Charon has summoned. Charon even tried to send a large number of chains towards the blood tide to try and stop it, but it also melted under the hot blood. Seeing that the chains were not enough to stop the blood tide, Charon suddenly turned itself into chains as well.
The chains that Charon transformed into were
different compared to the ones that it used to defend Adrian. The chains were darker in color, and they have this silver sheen to them which made them different. Charon would then fuse with the ball of chains that protected Adrian, but the undead would not be safe.
The chains melted under the influence by the hot blood tide, and it soon reached the dark chains with silver sheen. The dark chains with silver chains were able to repel the blood tide for a few seconds before it ultimately melted as well. Still, Charon's sacrifice was not for nothing as Adrian was able to live thanks to his soulbound's protection.
[You soulbound, Charon, has died.]
[You cannot summon your soulbound Charon for one hour.]
"The fact that attack could destroy Charon who is extremely tanky when it comes to magic means none of my soulbound can as well. I am afraid that even I cannot defend against any attack from that god." Adrian thought as his enemy now is not the Avatar of Shesmu but the God Shesmu himself.
Adrian came out from the chains that slowly faded as Charon has died. He looked around an only a handful of players were actually able to survive. They were numbered in the hundreds earlier but now they are less than ten. Even some of those that used their lifesaving skills died as well due to the intense power that the attack from a god.
Among the handful that survive, it was only Adrian that was unscathed while most of them were hanging on for dear life. The God Shesmu descended to the ground to look at the damage that he has done and laughed. It seems that the pride of a god has come to him as he has punished the ones that drove his followers to their deaths.
"It seems that some are still alive. I applaud all of you for surviving like a cockroach, but I shall have your lives right now." The God Shesmu stated but a spear suddenly flew towards his back. The God Shesmu used his scimitar to parry the flying spear and sent it flying.
"As expected, even a surprise attack is not that effective against a god that descended." Adrian stated as he appeared before the God Shesmu. The spear then flew towards Adrian as he could still control it with his mind.
"You also survived as well, demon. Then again, I would be incredibly disappointed if you were not able to do so." The God Shesmu stated as he charged towards Adrian with his bloody scimitars.
Adrian tossed his spear once more, but the God Shesmu was able to deflect it easily. The God Shesmu was about to laugh at the futile attempt that Adrian did, but a white dragon suddenly appeared in front of it. The white dragon opened its mouth and released a powerful blast of white light that even the God Shesmu needed to defend.
Adrian then recalled his spear as he tossed it once again towards the God Shesmu. The spear was suddenly coated with the breath attack that the white dragon used and pushed the God Shesmu to a slight degree. Irritated by the beam of light, the God Shesmu used some of his energy and released another Blood Cross that cut the beam of light.
