Souta's figure crashed on the ground. Then, three more people appeared and swiftly launched an attack.
Boom!!
The hero was stunned. He didn't know where these strong people came from. He was just fighting one of them yet suddenly the entire situation changed.
Shockwaves after shockwaves swept out across the region. In just a second, the entire city was flattened. It was replaced by a large crater with a diameter of five kilometers and a depth of five hundred meters. All the living creatures and infrastructures were turned into dust.
Boom!!
The experts continued to attack fiercely without holding back. All of them launched their most powerful attack in their strongest form. Their elemental power shook the entire region as if everything was about to break.
Bang!!
The hero raised his hand and covered himself with a barrier. He gritted his teeth. If he was on the receiving end of this barrage of attacks, he knew that he wouldn't be able to survive.
Crack!
The space was shattered along with various laws in the area.
"It started..."
Eilish and the others were staring at the giant spherical barrier. They could see various elements sweeping out inside the barrier. Even though it was isolated and they couldn't feel the pressure, just seeing it made them feel a cold sweat on their spine.
"If this was unleashed without a barrier then..."
Eilish narrowed her eyes.
This whole continent would collapse instantly. The laws that were protecting this world would shatter. Millions of people would die once that happens.
She needed to get stronger as soon as possible.
Boom!!
Inside the barrier, the hero floated in the air with a grim look. The barrage of attacks just now completely ravaged everything inside the barrier. There was nothing left except for them.
Bang!
The smoke was blown away as a powerful energy spread out.
Souta stood in the air as he stared at the people from the Wingless Crow. He raised his hand and wiped the blood on the corner of his mouth.
"This is it... This pain is different from those deaths. This pain is coming from the thrill of battle."
Souta laughed as he opened both of his arms widely. His energy burst out of his body and his wounds quickly healed in an instant.
The experts from the Wingless Crow took a step back.
"Is he this strong?! This... We can't even injure him with all of our attacks." One of them said while staring at Souta.
This was beyond their expectations. Souta was stronger than they imagined. There were seven Four Shackles Realm experts here and yet the only thing that they could do was scrape his skin.
They didn't hold back at all. They even used their [Element Drive] along with their strongest skill to attack him.
"He is just in his normal form..."
Their expressions turned grim. They thought that seven Four Shackles Realms were enough to kill Souta but Souta was even stronger than the rumors. They already considered the possibility of Souta getting stronger. They calculated everything and even Souta's most recent fight in the Hall Plains was in their records. According to their calculation, Souta was stronger than Four Shackles Realm. Yeah, Souta was so they were prepared to send four Four Shackles. In the end, they sent seven Four Shackles to make sure that Souta would die.
Souta glanced at them once again. He slowly opened his mouth and said, "You didn't expect any of this, right? Hahaha, after I kill all of you, the Wingless Crow will not bother me for a while. They will lose seven Four Shackles experts and it is a huge loss."
The experts from the Wingless Crow didn't say anything even though it was clear that Souta was mocking them.
"Hmm..." Souta stepped forward before he added, "Well, I will destroy the Wingless Crow soon. I wanted to get my hands on the artifact that your leader possessed."
The Wingless Crow was a powerful organization but they didn't have any god among their ranks. So he could deal with it once he increased his strength.
"Y-You!!! How do you know about that?!" One of them said but Souta made a grabbing motion.
Ohm!!
Ten black spheres appeared behind him in an instant and the gravity field appeared around the seven experts of the Wingless Crow.
"You wanted to kill me so there is nothing wrong if I kill all of you here."
Souta said as he activated various skills. His Second Mode enhanced his stats to a higher degree.
Boom!!
The seven experts moved their bodies as they tried to offset the gravitational field that was trying to crush their bones in every direction.
"Let's go!!"
They moved at the same time and attacked their target.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Souta exchanged high-speed blows with seven of them simultaneously.
In just a second, they already exchanged tens of thousands of blows. The seven experts did everything that they could but Souta was always countering them. Even if they landed a hit, it wasn't enough to change the tide of battle. Souta still had the advantage.
Boom!!
The hero went to the corner of the barrier to avoid being caught up.
"So strong..."
He was amazed when he saw the intense battle unfold before his eyes. He could barely handle one of the enemies yet Souta was fighting all of them at the same time. Even though Souta was alone, he was still overpowering his opponents with sheer strength.
Bang!!
The seven experts flew and crashed on the barrier. Their bodies were full of wounds and the same could be said to Souta.
Souta glanced at his body and said, "It seems that this is the limit of my base form. It's already stronger than any Four Shackles."
He clenched his fist and the wounds on his body disappeared as if nothing happened.
Seeing this scene, the expression of the seven experts turned pale. They did everything that they could to damage their target yet it was healed just like that.
Souta glanced at them.
"Let's end this, shall we?"
He opened his arms and shadows spread beneath his feet.
[Void Shrouding]!!
The seven experts wanted to escape but it was already too late. A black hole appeared behind them as seven doppelgangers jumped out from the shadows.
Swoosh!!
Souta bent his knees and launched himself. Strings of flesh moved and covered his body, turning into a layer of flesh.
He tightened his grip around the vajra sword as red energy accumulated around the blade.
[Darkness Bite]!!
A flash of darkness burst forth.
The six experts turned their heads. They saw one of their comrades' bodies rolling in the air. The body broke into tiny pieces. The organs and blood flew everywhere like a firework.
"This...?!"
Their eyes were widely opened and their brain could hardly process what was happening right now.
Before they could even regain their senses, the seven doppelgangers launched an attack once again. The black hole pulled them strongly.
Souta glanced at his hand. "The parasite is moving well right now. It received huge damage when I used the Archetype so it's quite good that it's back."
He looked ahead and flicked his finger.
Ohm!!
The black hole grew stronger once again. The entire area within the barrier was pure darkness. The spell sucked out all the light and particles in this region.
Its crushing force had improved to a higher level. Even the hero who was on the other side of the region could feel the intense pulling force of the black hole. The barrier that he used to protect himself crumbled. Even the laws that were protecting him were pulled towards it.
Souta watched the scene unfold before his eyes.
[Void Entanglement]!!
The black hole had resonated with him, causing its power to grow exponentially. Along with other enhancement skills, the power of the black hole was tremendously dangerous at this moment.
If there wasn't a barrier isolating this place then this world would perish in just a matter of seconds. All the lights would disappear first before the particles were sucked.
Boom!!
Still, the six remaining experts were strong. They were Four Shackles Realm and one shouldn't underestimate an expert that reached this level of power.
Three of them rushed towards the black hole to contain it. This caused the other three to break free from the pulling force. They launched an attack at Souta with all of their might.
"Die!!"
They roared as they arrived in front of him in less than a second despite the pressure that they were experiencing from their target. The gravitational field and all sorts of skills had lowered their stats, still, they have their own skills to enhance their bodies.
Swoosh!!
Before their attacks landed, Souta vanished before their eyes.
Huh?!
Their eyes were filled with shock.
Souta reappeared behind them and swung down his sword.
[Crimson Moon]!!
A red slash burst and one of the three was cut in half.
"Let me pass through..."
They heard a voice and when they realized it, Souta was already behind them. They wanted to move their bodies but then several lines appeared on them.
In the next moment, their bodies crumbled into tiny pieces.
