Chapter 710 - Legendary vs Leisure

Halmut trembled and clutched his claws tightly but said nothing in direct response to Jack. He glared at Jack, gradually turning his fuming rage into an even more twisted grin. "I'm done with you, Jack… I don't want to wait any longer…"

The Sun G.o.d launched the first attack of the match-ups. The divided battles had finally been set off and there was no going back now.

Halmut's breath attack was launched as the Sun Dragon threw a slew of light pillars at the hero. When Jack threw his first spectral flares, they were soon canceled by Tralbok. Kylon said nothing, wearing a blank stare as she spat out steam explosions left and right around Jack.

Jack appeared just outside of the attacks but Halmut was already on top of him with incredible speed, putting his upgraded armor to full use. And Jack also felt himself get slowed, finding himself caught again in Tralbok's interference. But Jack cast time stop to counter Tralbok and s.h.i.+fted into a four-bloodline transformation to take Halmut on.

As Jack's arms extended and become wings, a second set of arms grew out of Jack's torso. Those became club-like forearms with incredible punching and grabbing abilities while covered in barbs to tear apart enemies. A tail sprouted from the small of Jack's back and black-purple flames danced over Jack's entire body.

That transformation left everyone in the treasure chamber speechless for a moment. The challengers had all been amazed at some of Kartonia's unique people, but Jack's s.h.i.+fting abilities were beyond anything they could've expected. Both twins were shocked to see that side of Jack as they now understood why Jack gave them a feeling of trouble as a possible foe.

Halmut wasn't sure how Jack had managed to grow a second set of arms nor what creature it was that Jack found to gain such a skill, but understood that the Jack before him now was the strongest any of the legendary G.o.ds had ever seen. He wouldn't admit it out loud but Halmut was glad to have the powerful support duo of Kylon and Tralbok aiding him with the unpredictable Jack.

Moranti and Lunara, however, weren't distracted at all by Jack's transformation. They were too busy taking the initiative in their own battles.

Moranti unleashed his scythe right from the get-go, hurling hundred-meter spatial slashes with precision and relentless fury. The G.o.d of s.p.a.ce had Torian on his toes. While the speeding duo of Sillo and Tryes played second fiddle and kept Moratni from all-out pursuing Torian, the Thundering G.o.d fully understood that this wasn't the same Moranti that they had faced time and time again in the past. Torian was sure that Moranti had leveled up, making him on par with Halmut and a threat that his team of three may not be able to handle.

With that in mind, Torian immediately changed his strategy without verbally announcing it. Torian focused on stalling and keeping Moranti at bay along with Sillo and Tyres. He was afraid of what would happen should Moranti suddenly join Jack and take on Halmut, let alone what would happen should he get caught unguarded.

Lunara took a different approach, as did Grixor. Both of them understood each other and knew what was going to happen. It was the battle to see who was the ultimate tank. For that reason, Lunara, Grixor, and the Flood Dragons fought in their full-sized b.e.s.t.i.a.l forms.

On one side, there was the Quake Dragon boasting the greatest physical defense of all Kartonians. His physical brawn would only be rivaled by Dragov in the future after some serious leveling, but that wouldn't change any time soon. Also, Grixor was one of the strongest physically, making him a legitimate threat to anyone without a strategy to break through his defenses.

On the other side, there was the behemoth Nine-headed Glacial Hydra that stunned all spectating challengers from her size alone, making the powerful Quake Dragon less threatening by default. And though Lunara's physical defense wasn't as strong as Grixor's, even with her frost body, her defense against spells and energy attacks was only matched by Moranti. Yet her health was on par with Halmut's, making her a terrifying opponent in a battle of attrition.

The Flood Dragons a.s.sisting Grixor would be helpful, but they were only lv. 90 and wielded water along with fire, the two magic types that Lunara was best at resisting. Halmut's reasoning for having them support Grixor, however, was due to Lunara's compa.s.sion for the Flood Dragons. If they were going to be useful at all, it would likely be against Lunara.

Those watching the battles didn't know what to believe. To them, such a battle made little to no sense.

By having such a ma.s.sive battle occur now, it would probably lead to no one in Kartonia getting any treasures at all. All the best treasure troves would be raided before the battles would end, so even victory would mean hardly anything. But they enjoyed the show anyway, glad to see that such powerful contenders weren't a threat to them or the troves they were trying to raid.

There was, however, one legendary G.o.d more on edge than ever.

Torian hadn't forgotten about the sly and crafty swordsman from before. While the others hadn't exactly forgotten about the newer leisure G.o.d, Torian was humble enough to admit that the new G.o.d was able to keep up with him while also existing as a threat on par with Moranti. And should that swordsman be lying in wait to join the fray, one of the three battlegrounds would be immediately devastated.

"WATCH OUT FOR THE HELMED SWORDSMAN!!"

That warning alerted the legendary G.o.ds, making it easy for them to understand how serious of a threat the swordsman would be based on Torian's tone alone.

Moranti chuckled, failing to silence Torian as the Thundering G.o.d focused on evasion. Mumbling for only himself and Torian to hear, Moranti added, "Oh… You have no idea…"

But Torian had no time to relax. He was fully ready to dodge and weave past Moranti's many scythe attacks while letting Sillo and Tyres try to keep Moranti from leaving the battle.
