Chapter 570: Injured Hecate?
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
For the first time since their exchange started, Hecate's face finally turned solemn. The huge ball of fire threatening to fall from the sky was so powerful that it made his heart beat like crazy.
Hecate swiftly lifted the crimson shield that was even taller than him. He also wrapped his body with anma, not daring to take this spell lightly. "Come!" He roared without fear behind his shield.
Looking at the comet, Lilith frowned underneath her veil. She hurriedly commanded the soldiers of the Hall of Might and the Hall of Creation to retreat far away. The soldiers of the Hall of Might didn't even care about who gave the command.
Lilith summoned a spiritual barrier while Troy and Sebastian also summoned their own protective spells to help their soldiers. Though, they knew that many of their soldiers would still die from this attack. At least this way, they could prevent losing most of their subordinates.
A crimson aura covered Hecate's body. As the main target of the comet, he was the closest person to the ball of fire. Even if he tried to escape, he would still be hit. Besides, the thought of retreating from someone's attack didn't cross his mind. With his pride as the man known as the Walking Fortress, the word 'retreat' wasn't in his dictionary!
With a glaring light that almost blinded everyone present, the comet finally struck Hecate.
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMM!!
Burning fragments of stones flew in all directions and struck the soldiers near the comet's area of explosion.
Ahhhhhh!!
Ahhhhhh!!
Shrieks of pain echoed everywhere as the large burning stones hit their bodies. Some unlucky soldiers even died after having their heads struck by huge blazing stone fragments.
Particles of sand covered the surroundings of the Desert Region and it took more than ten minutes before the cloud of dust receded.
When everyone turned their gazes above, they noticed the figure of Hecate, still holding his shield and hammer. Some parts of his shield were broken and the sturdy feature of the shield was filled with cracks and burnt marks.
Hecate groaned lightly as he slowly lowered his shield. His armor had several burnt marks, but aside from that, there was no substantial damage to be seen. "Dammit!" He cursed under his breath as he forcefully swallowed down the blood rising in his throat.
Hecate could still feel his internal organs protesting in pain and even his left hand that held his shield felt numb.
He could not help but stare at the silver-haired human in shock. Hecate saw that the man still had his usual look of indifference, but a moment later, the human let out a smile.
"Oh? You actually survived from that? Not bad! You're the second person who survived that spell!" Jiu Shen grinned as he looked at Hecate's ugly expression. This guy was even more tenacious than Lao Gou! Even Lao Gou was left almost half-dead after receiving this comet. He even had the support of the Celestial-rank item, the God Sealing Tower. However, Hecate came out relatively unscathed. Only his shield was damaged and he appeared to be fine.
Hecate gritted his teeth in anger. How could he not sense the mocking tone of this guy?
With a series of quick movements, Hecate flashed towards Jiu Shen and shouted furiously. "I'll kill you! Die!"
He violently swung his hammer, creating a deadly arc of light that tore the skies.
Swoosh!
Jiu Shen's eyes narrowed and he hurriedly brandished his sword as he put up a defensive spell.
A golden bulwark appeared in front of him, but it instantly broke into pieces after coming in contact with Hecate's hammer.
Baaaang!
Jiu Shen's face turned serious upon seeing this and he immediately lifted his sword over his head. "Fourth Sword Dance: Rain of Sword Petals..."
Thousands of blooming scarlet flowers suddenly appeared following Jiu Shen's exquisite sword dance.
When Jiu Shen completed the final movement, the petals of the scarlet flower turned into Celestial-rank blades and flew straight at Hecate, producing keening sounds in the air!
Shiiinng!
Hecate felt the power behind every petal swords. All of them were at the level of Celestial-rank items! 'How did this guy summon such a dreadful sword skill!?'
Left with no choice, he could only place his luck on his battered shield. He also used his hammer to cover his head. As for the other parts of his body, he couldn't do anything about it.
Suu! Suu! Suu!
CLAANG!
CLAANG!
Puchi!
Everyone stared in horror as the mighty Hecate's lower body was pierced by more than a dozen petal swords!
Hecate's eyes turned bloodshot and a trail of blood trickled down the edges of his lips.
"Hall Master!"
"Hall Master Hecate!"
"Hecate!"
"The Hall Master is injured?" The soldiers of the Hall of Might stared at their mighty leader in disbelief.
Hecate, the Walking Fortress, was now riddled in wounds!
Blood leaked out from the gaps of his broken crimson armor.
Although the lower portion of his crimson armor had multiple cracks, it was still intact.
Everyone noticed that the crimson armor was also repairing itself, and soon, the damage on the crimson armor can no longer be seen!
This was a treasure bestowed by the Lord of Asgard. It had saved his life on many occasions. This armor was called 'Impenetrable Crimson God Armor' and it had the ability to self-repair no matter the amount of damage received!
'This guy is so strong! Is he truly a Celestial?!' Hecate glanced at Jiu Shen with his eyes narrowed into slits. The man was still hovering expressionlessly while looking at him.
"Lilith, kill the rest quickly! I can't defeat this guy, but I'll try to hold him off! When you kill the other Celestials, help me finish off this guy!" Hecate sent a voice transmission to Lilith.
Lilith was stunned when he heard Hecate's voice in her head. This was the first time that Hecate admitted being inferior to someone. "Alright. I'll try to kill them as quickly as I can." She answered.
