Chapter 1102 Abyssal Invasion [Part 4]
'Let's ignore him for now,' Lux said to Hana through telepathy. 'Let's deal with the other Demigods first. They must not be allowed to enter the Portal.'
The Half-Elf knew that even in their weakened state, the Saints that were fighting on Solais would be unable to fight against them due to the disparity in rank.
If he hadn't divided his forces, he might have managed to subdue them faster. But, he was also thankful that he had split his forces.
Right now, he was fighting against a Pseudo-God.
A being that was stronger than a Demigod.
Just as they were about to teleport and target the other Demigods, Lux and Hana found themselves stuck in place.
It was as if they were in a quagmire that they couldn't get away from, greatly restricting their movements.
Hana was alarmed because she was unable to use her Spatial Ability to teleport the two of them away to safety.
Sensing that he would have to forcefully break away from their predicament, Lux decided to use his strongest ability.
"Deus Gigantia!"
A gigantic Skeleton King that stood over a hundred meters tall appeared behind the Half-Elf.
The gem on its chest glowed faintly and transported the Half-Elf, as well as Hana, inside of it.
"Hoh~ not bad," Daniel said as he looked at the towering Skeleton King. "But, not good enough.'
Without another word, he raised his hand and the dozens of Demigods that had tried to escape earlier, were instantly teleported to his side.
"If all of you don't want to die, fight him," Daniel ordered. "Those who run away will be killed by my hand."
The Demigods were very reluctant to fight Lux because they didn't want to suffer the same fate as the One-Horned Demigod that had underestimated their opponent.
However, none of them also dared to defy Daniel, who could kill them with a snap of his finger, especially after they were forced to submit to him.
The Pseudo-God had embedded a powerful seal in their hearts, which he could activate at any given time.
Just a thought was enough for this seal to obliterate their hearts, killing them from the inside out.
Left with no other alternatives, all the Demigods charged at Lux with the intention of dying alongside him.
After becoming an S-Ranker, the Skeleton King had become a Peak-Calamity Ranked World Boss.
Although it had become a lot stronger, it was simply no match against a dozen Demigods, despite the fact that they had suffered soul injuries from Eiko's Blast Bombs.
But, that was fine.
This was the perfect scenario that Lux was waiting for.
"Hana, now!" Lux ordered.
The Fox Lady nodded and grabbed hold of Lux's body.
A moment later, they disappeared from the blue gem that was located on the chest of the Skeleton King.
Even without Lux, the Skeleton King had no problems moving autonomously.
Its Master's safety was its priority, so not having him around was a good thing, especially because of what it was about to do.
The moment the Demigods was about to crush its body, the Skeleton King detonated the Blast Bombs that Lux had placed in different parts of its body, creating a world-shaking-eruption that nearly split the 70th Floor apart.
Lux had used dozens of Nuclear-Level Blast Bombs, emptying more than half of his stock.
He couldn't allow a single Demigod to survive, so he took the gamble, and prayed for it to succeed.
The 70th Floor was covered in hellish flames the likes it had never seen before.
The two explosions that Lux had orchestrated at the beginning of the battle couldn't compare to the pure, raw destruction that was brought down by dozens of Blast Bombs, detonating at the same time.
Lux was even hoping that the explosion was able to injure Daniel at the same time. As long as he was weakened, he might be able to use the rest of his Blast Bombs to the best of his ability.
After a few minutes, the raging blaze that seemed unending was split apart in half, and dispersed completely.
Standing at the hellish landscape of fire, and magma, was none other than Daniel, who looked perfectly fine, despite the fact that none of the Demigods were able to survive.
Blackfire had no opportunity to collect bodies because there were no bodies to collect.
'Master, I think we should escape,' Hana said in an anxious tone. 'We cannot defeat him. It is impossible.'
'I understand, Hana,' Lux replied. 'But, where can we run?'
'Master, did you forget?' Hana said softly. 'He can't leave the Abyss. If we return to Solais, he will not be able to do anything to us.'
Lux had momentarily forgotten this fact because of how surprised he was that Daniel had remained free of injury despite everything that had happened.
He didn't dare fight the Pseudo-God head-on, and his Deus Gigantia had also been destroyed by the explosion.
Summoning the Skeleton King had a cooldown time of an hour. Since that was the case, he couldn't use the same tactic. Also, he didn't believe that the same trick would work against his opponent.
'Let's go, Hana,' Lux stated. 'Take me to the portal.'
'Yes, Master!' Hana replied, and immediately used her power to teleport?in front of the Purple Portal, which would let them return to Solais.
Daniel, who understood what they were planning to do sneered.
"Since you want to run away then so be it," Daniel stated, making sure that Lux hears it. "I'll just erase you and Solais at the same time."
At that exact moment, a silhouette that made Lux and Hana shudder materialized behind the Black-Robed Man.
Antero and his Skeleton King were the biggest creatures that Lux had seen in his lifetime.
But, neither of them could compare to the sheer size of the creature that was hovering behind Daniel.
For a brief moment, the entirety of the 70th Floor collapsed, allowing Lux, and Hana to see the being that made them look like specks of dust in the universe.
