Chapter 512: God of Slaughter, Asura
Chapter 512: God of Slaughter, Asura
However, their thoughts began to change with Asura’s appearance.
Ares looked at the flying red bead.
Shake, shake, shake—
His body shook but his thoughts began to change once again.
‘This is a f*cked situation. A player from another country is trampling on Korea’s best guild?’
Ares hated Legend. Before he started a feud with them, Ares was known as one of Korea’s pride. The same was true for all of the rankers that have gathered in this place. Most of the rankers that have gathered here were part of the top 100 domestic rankings of their respective classes.
Ares glanced at Genie who was down, and said, “I will take command in the meantime! Those who will participate in the Asura hunt, listen up!”
“Yeah!”
“Yes!”
“Yes!”
“Protect Beyond the Heavens Kingdom and subjugate the Demigod Asura! Make sure to get rid of that f*cking bastard and throw him far away from the Korean server!!!”
“Yes!!!”
“Yes!!!”
“Yes!!!”
The 500 top rankers moved with Ares. In just a blink, the red beads appeared in front of them. A huge force gathered in the fists of Korea’s strongest fist, Khan.
“Straight Punch.”
It was a simple punch. However, this punch could momentarily increase Khan’s attack power by 600%. Then, Ares moved his feet as a green energy surrounded his right foot.
“Dragon’s Kick.”
The strongest fist and the strongest kick slammed into the red bead at the same time.
Baaaaaaaaaaang—
The red bead broke down and fell onto the ground in a pool of blood.
“I didn’t expect that I would be able to use this skill with you,” Ares said as a tremendous force rose from his body.
[Dragon and Tiger.]
[The dragon and tiger fighting together and inflicting continuous damages will give you greater power.]
[Additional 200% damage will be inflicted for every successful attack made within 0.9 seconds of the previous attack.]
[The dragon and tiger will be granted an invincible state for three seconds. The invincibility will extend for every successful linked attack.]
Ares had never maintained this skill past five seconds. It was a skill that would only be able to show its greatness when working with someone. And it was not an easy task for anyone to fight alongside and keep up with Ares.
Khan nodded after hearing the notifications.
Roaaaaar—
Graaaaaaaaa—
The figure of a roaring dragon appeared before getting sucked into Ares’ body as a blue aura erupted from within him. On Khan’s side, a roaring tiger appeared and got sucked in his body before releasing a red aura. Both of them ran out at the same time. They were immediately followed by 200 rankers. Then, Asura slammed his two greatswords on the ground, sending his attacks toward Ares and Khan.
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
A huge explosion bloomed right in front of the two, but it did not affect them. After all, they were in an invincible state. The first to attack was Ares, he reached Asura’s flank and kicked as hard as he could.
Kick!
Then, it was followed by Khan’s fist, which hit Asura’s other side.
[Successful link! Damage will increase by 200%!]
[Your invincible state will remain.]
Ares immediately spun on his toes and kicked Asura’s chin.
Kick!
“Ugh!” A light moan escaped Asura’s mouth. Khan took the opportunity and immediately slammed his fist into Asura’s face.
Punch!
“Urk!”
Kick, kick, kick, kick, kick!
Punch, punch, punch, punch!
Their level of teamwork was surprising. The two of them took turns hitting Asura and successfully landed dozens of consecutive attacks.
[Successful link! Damage will increase by 200%!]
[Your invincible state will remain.]
[Successful link! Damage will increase by 200%!]
[Your invincible state will remain.]
[Successful link! Damage will increase by 200%!]
[Your invincible state will remain.]
[Successful link! Damage will increase by 200%!]
[Your invincible state…]
[Successful link!… 200%!]
[Your invincible state…]
[Your invincible state…]
[Successful link!… 200%!]
[Your invincible state…]
[Your invincible state…]
[Successful link!… 200%!]
[Your invincible state…]
“That, that’s crazy…”
“Uwaaaaah…”
The rankers running behind them could not help but stop in their tracks as they watched the two work seamlessly together. They did not dare to interrupt, fearing that they would disrupt their flow.
However, the shocking scene in front of them would remain in their minds. The two looked like they had been comrades for decades as they fought and took turns hitting Asura with perfect precision and teamwork.
[Your invincible state…]
[Successful link!… 200%!]
[Your invincible state…]
[The linked damage has exceeded 6,000%!]
[You have achieved marvelous continuous attacks.]
[You will incur additional 1,000% damage!]
Gradually, a red and blue light formed and covered Khan’s and Ares’ hands and feet as power soared through their veins.
[This is very surprising. Ares and Khan are the two great mountains of Korea’s fighter class. Their power combined together is ridiculously amazing.]
[Only a few players from around the world can achieve consecutive linked hits like that.]
Even the best rankers from all over the world were stunned by the marvelous display of teamwork. In fact, even Ares was also surprised.
‘When I used this skill with others, the best we could do was do eight linked attacks.’
But Ares had already exceeded a dozen with Khan. Asura, who was momentarily stunned by Khan’s and Ares’ punches and kicks, began to make his move.
Baaaaaaang—
“Keheok!” Asura gasped when an attack landed on his throat.
Kick!
Meanwhile, Ares landed another kick on Asura’s flanks. The two were beating up Demigod Asura. If things went on like this, then the two of them might just be able to hunt Asura. As long as they keep on increasing their successful linked attacks then their damage might even increase by 10,000%. However…
“Interesting.”
Baaaaaaang—
Asura, who seemed as if he was staggering back, raised his hands and prevented the kick that was aimed at his sides.
[Linked attack has failed!]
[Dragon and Tiger Skill has completed.]
Then, Asura immediately grabbed Khan’s fist, which was aiming for his abdomen.
Thuuud—
“Kghhk?!”
Only then did the two of them realize that they were able to land successful linked attacks on Asura not because Asura could not stop them, but because Asura welcomed their attacks.
“So, this is the power of the current era?”
“…!”
“…!”
Asura sounded as if he was evaluating them and their power.
“What…?!”
Just when Ares was about to turn around and land another kick…
Slash—
Asura slashed his greatsword horizontally at him. At the same time…
[Your HP has decreased by 20%!]
[You have received Asura’s invisible attack.]
[Your HP has decreased by 18%!]
[You have received Asura’s invisible attack.]
[Your HP has decreased by 19%!]
[You have received tremendous damage in one strike! Your body’s movements have been restricted.]
“This damage…!”
Ares could not help but be terrified. It was clear that Asura only sent one attack, but there were three damage notifications that rang in his ears.
‘Don’t tell me…?!’
Asura was said to have three heads and six arms. From what it looked like, even though the rest of his six arms were not seen, they could still inflict damage on Asura’s enemies. Simply put, Asura had reduced Ares’ HP by nearly 60% with just his one basic attack.
“Sh, shit…”
Even if Ares’ movements were not restricted from the large damage that he received, he was sure that he would not be able to move from the momentum and aura that Asura was emitting as of the moment. When Asura tried to swing his greatsword again, Khan immediately threw himself in front of Ares.
“Fall back.”
Khan immediately dragged Ares to the rear as the 200 rankers that followed behind them rushed forward to attack Asura. The one that stood at the forefront was none other than Korea’s number one in the Tanker Rankings, Golden Shield Valdar. He was famous for being able to stop ten Named Monsters’ attacks all by himself.
“God’s Shield!!!”
Thump—
A transparent shield formed around the area the moment he stabbed his shield on the ground. The melee class dealers immediately stuck close to him and prepared for an attack. Then, Asura brandished his greatsword once again.
Slash, slash, slash, slash, slash—
This time, Asura used both of the greatswords in his hands.
[God’s Shield’s durability has decreased by 7%.]
[God’s Shield has received Asura’s invisible attack.]
[God’s Shield’s durability has decreased by 6%.]
[God’s Shield has received Asura’s invisible attack.]
[God’s Shield’s durability has decreased by 6%.]
“What, what the hell…?!”
Asura had only slammed his greatswords on the God’s Shield for a total of four times but he received twelve times the damage. The worst part was that everything happened in just one second. In that split second, God’s Shield broke into pieces and Valdar, Korea’s number one tanker, was cut down by Asura’s greatswords.
The rankers rushed from behind and jumped at Asura. But Asura easily jumped in their fray and swung his greatsword at them.
“Euaaaaaaack!”
“Keuaaaaaaack!”
[You have been forced to log-out.]
[You have been forced to log-out.]
[You have been forced to log-out.]
This notification popped up in the rankers eyes. The time it took for the rankers to die? Only two seconds. It was just an instant, but more than thirty rankers died.
“That’s quite boring. Is the power of the current era just this much? That’s infinitely weaker than the past,” Asura said, looking at his surroundings, “I don’t have to drag it out for too long.”
Asura looked infinitely bored. All of the rankers turned pale. Despite being the best rankers in Korea, they did not expect that they would not be able to do anything and would only be pushed back. Then, Asura crossed his greatswords together.
“Hell’s Infernal Sword.”
Hell’s Infernal Sword originally meant hell but Asura’s Hell’s Infernal Sword was referring to a sword.
[Hell’s Infernal Sword.]
[A vicious sword with additional 2,500% attack that could bring everyone within a twenty meter radius fall into the depths of despair.]
At that moment, Asura slammed his greatsword on the ground, turning it red.Thousands of translucent bloody greatswords popped up and brutally slaughtered the rankers that fought in the frontlines.
Fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh, fwoosh—
Only one second had passed and another forty rankers had already died. By the time two seconds rolled, more than a hundred had already died. When three seconds came, 180 of them died. Their blood scattered and dyed everything red.
In the first place, Asura’s Hell’s Infernal Sword was a skill that created despair and misery by spilling countless people\'s blood. The blood gushed out like fountains that anyone would have a hard time looking around them.
“It’s over…” Someone murmured. However, no one could deny it.
***
In the meeting room.
Everyone was speechless. All they could do was watch Asura and his cold-blooded and vicious tyranny happen on screen.
[Everything is covered in blood. We can’t see much on screen.]
[What the hell is happening over there?]
[The power that Asura has displayed so far is completely different from the power that Ghost Spear Ben has displayed before.]
[Is that the true power of a god?]
The broadcasting stations’ cameras had lost sight of what was happening in the game due to the blood that covered everything. Even the people in the meeting room could only see blood.
Team Leader Park Minggyu looked at the monitor seriously.
‘If Asura continues to advance and attack the kings then…’
Asgan Continent would be destroyed, just like how Akhan wanted. If this happened, they would need to create both a new episode and a new kingdom. However, for Athenae, a worldview with a high degree of freedom, it was something that was completely next to impossible.
Finally, the blood that covered the screens slowly started to clear away. What greeted them was a very gruesome scene. Only half of the 500 rankers that came were left. The worst part? The ones that survived were only barely hanging on to dear life. They definitely could not wield their weapons to fight.
As for the knights and soldiers of Lumae Kingdom? They were originally over 6,000 in number but only 2,000 of them were left. The dead that littered and surrounded Asura in this gruesome battlefield slowly started to disappear.
Team Leader Park could only close his eyes.
[That’s quite boring. Is the power of the current era just this much?]
Asura laughed.
[This is completely ridiculous. I can only laugh at you. Huh?]
Team Leader Park clenched his fists tightly when he heard Asura scoff at the entire Athenae worldview. The voice laughed not only at the rankers but even them, the ones that created this world.
“They’re here,” President Kang Taehoon’s voice, filled with hope, rang in everyone’s ears. Minggyu opened his eyes to look at the monitor once more. Then, the cold and frosty voice of a woman rang from the monitor.
[Do you think you’re someone qualified to talk about the current era?]
Then, the sound of the sword being pulled out rang loudly.
Shiiiiiiing—
Clack—
It was just a brief and short sound, but by the time it was over, the sword was already sheathed again. Her movements were so fast that none of them could follow it with their own eyes. And right behind her, Asura, with his head cut off, fell down on the ground.
Thud—
Thud—
Two loud thuds accompanied Asura’s head and body falling on the ground as a woman with her silver hair fluttering behind her walked forward, not minding one bit that her back was against Asura.
“Sword Emperor Ellie…”
It was the appearance of the Absolute Supreme NPC, the Continental Emperor Ellie.
1. ???(地獄刀) This should just mean Hell or Inferno but the ? (刀) was referring to sword/knife
