Extraordinary Voyage
Chapter 949 - 822: Human God Duel
Sss——!
A group of "Rat People" engaged in a skirmish nearby with the "Armored Warriors" heard Baba Yaga’s questioning shout. Immediately, they simultaneously opened their mouths and sprayed a cone of yellow-green poisonous mist in the direction of Aiven and his group.
[Divine Skill: Foul Acid Fog]
Accompanying a sizzling corrosive sound, the entire beach almost transformed into a pitch-black quagmire.
[False Mirror Image] itself has no defensive capabilities and easily shatters under the impact of the poisonous mist.
Yet it was swept back in Aiven’s gale-like hand gesture, scaring the group of Evil God’s Followers and the "Armored Warriors" fighting them, causing them to dodge frantically.
Baba Yaga, standing a bit further away, saw the familiar silhouette appearing before her, her face suddenly changing.
"Evil Dragon?! Is it you again!"
Aiven had transformed into the unremarkable appearance from their last encounter.
But the old witch clearly had a deep impression of him, nearly being devoured by thousands of poisonous snakes back then, only barely escaping thanks to the [Black Ebony Crow Statue], yet inevitably suffering a severe loss of vitality.
The Evil God’s Followers, having previously suffered, became pale upon seeing him.
"No fear of bad events, only fear of bad people," even among a group of usual killers and arsonists, Aiven was a terrifying existence akin to a flood beast.
"Well, it’s me, hey, did everyone miss me?"
Since he had been exposed, Aiven no longer cared, deciding to deal with these Evil God’s Followers who were up to no good.
Eating, sleeping, fighting the Evil God, when encountering something beneficial to physical and mental health, "Just go for it!"
"Go!"
Milan covered his left eye with two fingers. Suddenly, a black slit opened in the void above his head, followed by a watermelon-sized violet eye. In a flash, it projected a strange pupil light onto Baba Yaga.
[Witchcraft: Evil Eye Pupil Light]
An advanced version of [Misfortune Curse], allowing opponents of the same level to experience what it feels like to choke on water.
Behind the gem-equipped Olivia, a dazzling gem galaxy suddenly rose into the night sky.
One gem, ten gems, a hundred gems... countless bright multicolored gems shone brilliantly, striking cross-shaped stars flashed repeatedly, leaving long trails of light on everyone’s retinas.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!...
A terrifying magic light cannon comparable to a fleet salvo crashed down like torrential rain, precisely targeting every Ancient God’s Follower on the battlefield.
[Military Witchcraft: Moment of the Righteous Stars]
Jelos once again activated [Trait Incarnation: Arrogance], his mercurial eyes suddenly glaring, causing Baba Yaga’s body to stiffen.
[Magic-like Technique: Spiritual Shackles]
Meanwhile, Aiven took a deep breath as his companions completed their pre-emptive strikes, and exhaled a yellowish linear breath towards the old witch, shooting out a fierce decaying aura.
[Cosmic Dragon: Breath of Age]
Besieged by four Great Wizards, two senior and two junior, an unprecedented high treatment even "Death Messenger" hadn’t received.
No surprise, the unfortunate and immobilized Baba Yaga, overwhelmed by firepower suppression, was forced to take Aiven’s [Breath of Age].
Although she possessed [Witchcraft: Hidden Death], could resurface within 24 hours even if slain; and obtained a certain degree of undying through the [Black Ebony Crow Superpower Statue], almost impossible to be killed outright.
However, don’t forget.
This elderly witch, who existed long ago during the "Dark Millennium Era" over five hundred years ago, was reaching the end of her Tier 3 High-Rank Wizard lifespan.
No matter how powerful, once life reaches its limit, all the witchcraft changes are futile.
"Stop—!"
Baba Yaga desperately struggled, frantically screaming inwardly.
Yet the already aged old witch continued aging rapidly before their eyes, her hair gradually turning gray, skin developing age spots, teeth falling out, her body becoming more hunchbacked...
Under the influence of Aiven Wizard’s [True Name], his terrifying breath nearing Tier 4 strength, could steal ten years of the old witch’s life every two seconds.
Almost driving her live-aging to death, sending this sinful soul into the grave.
Suddenly, a clear reprimand echoed in the ears of the group:
"What relationship do you have with that sycophant under Nebuchadnezzar?!"
Obviously, the brilliant display of witchcraft effects here caught the attention of the War Goddess Inanna at the battlefield’s center, discerning the fundamental traits through divine sight.
Originally fused from twelve evil witches, Baba Yaga no longer possessed human essence, maintaining a humanoid form yet more akin to a demon.
Those under her command use divine or magic-like techniques, bearing no traces of people from this era, hence smoothly joining God’s ranks.
Yet Aiven’s group exuded the aura closely resembling that of Paracelsus, who alongside the human king ascended the "Heaven-Reaching Tower" to challenge God, unique to research-type wizards!
"The Goddess of War" Inanna still vividly remembered the humiliation of the gods by mortals that night.
Among the representatives, Nebuchadnezzar’s people were everywhere, while only Aiven’s group mirrored Paracelsus on the island.
"Lowly ants, learn to revere God with your lives!"
In her wrath, she temporarily eased her confrontation with a group of "Armored Warrior" High-tier Transcendents, suddenly expanding her size five to six times, transforming into a giant capable of catching stars, standing in the sky and readying her bow and arrow.
The cold chanting reverberated through the heavens:
"The evening bell has unveiled your true name, higher than the sky, more majestic than the seas, this body shall turn into a fiery comet to strike the earth! Witness the finale of the stars and moonlight!..."
Immediately.
Under the dominion of the power of [War], a gigantic illusion of a fiery red planet appeared out of nowhere.
Injecting the light that seemed like both flames and blood into the arrow in Inanna’s hand, a red halo exploded beside the goddess.
Using the astrological sign corresponding to the God of War, [Yinghuo], to launch [Divine Skill: Fall of Yinghuo].
A group of "Armored Warriors" in the sky naturally couldn’t just stand by, wielding their [Black Tin] cross long halberds to rush fiercely towards Inanna, yet were firmly blocked by the "God of Thunder and Rain" leading his followers.
Because of that mesmerizing beauty even gods are infatuated with, the "Goddess of Love’s" every willful action would be tolerated by the gods.
When she began chanting "The evening bell has unveiled your true name," Aiven and his three companions suddenly felt their bodies tighten, having been firmly locked upon by the power of a deity.
Even if they fled to the ends of the earth or another dimension, that arrow would chase them down and obliterate them into dust.
"There’s no escape! Hesi, fight back with all your might!"
The chilling sense of crisis made Aiven and his group too shocked to care about the old witch who was barely hanging on to life.
"Understood!"
Flap flap....
As soon as Baba Yaga broke free, she exploded into countless pitch-black crows cawing grotesquely as they soared into the air, but their cries were already hoarse and incredibly old.
Having just risen two meters, they began falling to the ground one after another with a "thud thud thud," already too weakened to even fly.
Buzz——!
Looking up at the "Divine Punishment" brewing, with a gradually accelerating heartbeat, around Olivia swirled a collection of gemstones as radiant as a galaxy, constructing a movable [Position Orbit] like stars surrounding the moon.
Immediately, the girl’s crystalline toes lightly lifted off the ground and floated into the air.
In her Spiritual Vision, a beautifully radiant band encircled her like a galaxy, as though she were a descending Starlight Goddess awaiting them at their home.
The Spiritual Wind cheered jubilantly.
Brilliant rune rings composed of countless strange characters exploded layer by layer in front of Olivia, nested so that they formed a dynamic golden rune barrel, angled upwards towards the sky.
The lavish gift given by the nobility from various countries during their wedding, representing fire, water, wind, earth, and soul were five superior [Gem Stars]: a ruby, sapphire, emerald, yellow gemstone, and moonstone.
Having already entered into a "magazine" constructed by rune techniques, they transformed into dazzling five-colored starlight spinning swiftly.
[Exclusive Positional Witchcraft: Five-Star Bombardment - Briounak]
An ordinary [Gem Witchcraft: Shattered Star] allows a wizard of the "Gem School" to annihilate a Gem Star by sacrificing their casting ability temporarily, releasing the immense power condensed in it over eons. When used by a Great Wizard, it can even obliterate a city with a single strike.
With Olivia’s current strength, using [Shattered Star] can already unleash its full contained power, avoiding waste.
When actually using one’s ace in the hole, the extravagance index is beyond compare.
But facing a demigod, this is far from enough.
Crackle....
Aiven, in tacit understanding, gently beckoned, causing the scattered [Black Tin] cross long halberds to rapidly transform, twisting like vines into a colossal spiral long spear.
Facing directly the red arrow in the sky that could pierce the brow.
"Whew!"
Taking a deep breath.
Olivia’s [True Sight Demon Eye] tightly followed the trajectory of the divine power, and suddenly squeezed the invisible trigger in her mind.
Pop!
The five precious [Gem Stars] shattered in an instant, causing the magical elements within a several hundred-kilometer radius to boil and revel, with a cruciform starlight at the "muzzle" abruptly exploding, transforming into a radiant halo filling the entire world.
In the tumultuous airflow, the girl’s cascading black hair wildly danced in the wind, with her hairband torn and snapped by the gale.
A straight pure white star glow fiercely struck the tail of the spiral giant spear.
Boom——!!!
Using the [Black Tin] capable of harming gods as the "warhead," and the energy from the annihilation of five [Gem Stars] as the "gunpowder," Olivia "fired a shot" at one of the powerful Three Pillar Gods of the Muriyan Civilization.
At the same time.
In the sky, an enormous, seemingly slow but actually swift, red celestial body appeared to be descending, intending to wipe out the "Armored Warriors" on the ground indiscriminately along with their enemies!
Ding!
An imperceptible yet incredibly clear sound resonated in the heart of everyone.
Then.
A dazzling, magnificent sun descended upon this place, in a splendid explosion of light filling the entire world.
All those within a hundred meters of the ground were suddenly slammed into the mud, while those above a hundred meters were thrown high into the sky.
