Chapter 282: Chapter 226 – Under the Golden Tree_1
Royal City Roeder.
This was the hub of the Golden Clan, the place where the Golden Tree resided. The city had also suffered considerable destruction in the context of the Shattered War. Regardless of what kind of civilization that once stood here, now all that remained was a deathly quiet ghost town.
At this moment, Duanmu Huai had already arrived at the Golden Tree, the location of the final throne.
The others did not show themselves, as per Duanmu Huai's intention. The old ways persisted – he would attract the enemy's attention while the others lay concealed, waiting for him to strike first before taking action. This was certainly better than everyone revealing themselves all at once only to find themselves caught in an ambush – especially considering that Three-Fingers had already broken his seal and was likely to cause trouble together with Two-Fingers. Caution was clearly needed.
“Huff…”
Duanmu Huai took a deep breath, then shouldered his war hammer and gradually began climbing the stairs, approaching the door in front of him.
The vast hall was empty, with a royal throne positioned directly in the center. Opposite to the throne were six other chairs. Duanmu Huai shouldered his war hammer and slowly advanced forward. Then, a voice rang out.
“An unblessed one… what brings you to the throne?”
Duanmu Huai raised his head, only to see a tall figure, leaning on a staff, slowly descending the steps leading from the throne to the interior of the Golden Tree.
“Are you Bad Omen King Mongat?”
Duanmu Huai stared at the figure and asked.
“Yes……”
Mongat nodded, then looked at the six chairs in front of him.
“Golden Gerick, the celestial twins Mikaela and Maleniya, General Ratain, Judge Lacard, Moon Princess Lani…”
Mongat's eyes swept over the six chairs, his gaze gradually fading into sadness.
“A bunch of disobedient traitors, you are all the same……!”
“The Golden Law has shattered, the Golden Clan has perished, the era of Supreme Will has ended.”
Duanmu Huai raised his left hand, and the Great Rune began to subtly glow in response to his movement.
“All that's left is you!”
“Very well……”
Mongat gripped his staff tightly, and the next moment, his staff shattered, a splendidly multicolored black greatsword emerging from the ruins. Mongat lifted his gaze and stared sharply at Duanmu Huai.
“Thief manipulated by the flame of ambition, on your foolish tombstone, I shall inscribe the name of Mongat, the last king!”
In response to Mongat's declaration, Duanmu Huai gripped his war hammer tight and pointed it at Mongat.
“This is your last statement, Mongat, prepare for your next life as death is predestined for you!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Mongat brandished his greatsword with one hand and summoned a golden war hammer with the other. He then leaped directly towards Duanmu Huai, lunging at him!
You're challenging me with a hammer? Are you kidding?
Faced with Mongat's move, Duanmu Huai naturally wouldn't choose to evade. He let out a loud shout, gripping his war hammer tightly. Immediately, the black God-killing flames exploded, and Duanmu Huai raised his war hammer high, striking down hard on Mongat's Golden War Hammer.
“Boom!”
Under the bombardment of the black flames, even the Golden Warhammer in Mongat's hand began to dim. As a result, Mongat was forced to jump back and dodge. Afterwards, he faced Duanmu Huai, his expression filled with surprise and disbelief.
“The power of the Rune of Death… you can actually control the Rune of Death?”
“There's no chance of victory for you, Mongat.”
Duanmu Huai tightened his grip on his war hammer, his gaze piercing the enemy before him.
“Prepare to die.”
Just as Duanmu Huai finished speaking, the jetpack behind him suddenly activated, spewing a massive current that propelled Duanmu Huai like a black meteor through the royal courtyard, directly at Mongat. The latter had evidently not expected Duanmu Huai to possess such a tactic. Caught off guard, he could only hurriedly raise his greatsword in defense. However, it was already too late.”
“Boom!”
The roaring Thunder Warhammer struck the greatsword held by Mongat. The curved, multicolored black sword instantly shattered like delicate glassware under the impact. Subsequently, the war hammer, engulfed in black flames, pierced through Mongat's chest directly. The spiky hammer head rushed past, tearing apart Mongat's body and burying into his chest. With a horrific scream, Mongat was sent flying and crashed hard onto the ground.
“Waaaa!!!”
The Thunder Warhammer covered in God-killing black flames surpassed the extent of Mongat's resistance. He collapsed on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood, and found himself unable to get up. Duanmu Huai walked over to him, stared at him, then once again raised his war hammer and brought it down on Mongat's head.
“Whoosh…”
At the same moment, a battle axe suddenly flew in from the front, aimed straight at Duanmu Huai's helmet. Duanmu Huai, however, seemed unfazed, with no intention of stopping his attack. His hands tightened around his war hammer and completed the downward swing!
“Thud!”
As Duanmu Huai's war hammer crushed Mongat's head, the battle axe landed squarely on Duanmu Huai's helmet. The enormous impact sent him reeling a few steps backwards.
“Crack, crack.”
Under normal circumstances, any ordinary man facing such a blow would've been dismembered. But Duanmu Huai simply stood there, shrugged off the blow, then raised his head and stared coldly ahead.
“Who the hell are you?”
At this moment, in front of Duanmu Huai, the place he had just arrived, a tall man walked over, clad in armor, with white hair cascading down, and a thick beard. He appeared aged, but the robust muscles and the authoritative expression suggested that this man was anything but feeble.
A translucent lion lay on his body, emitting a roar of rage.
“Mongat……”
The man stared at the decapitated body of Mongat in front of him, a trace of sorrow flashing across his face. He then turned his gaze to Duanmu Huai, his hand reaching out–accompanied by his movement, the long-handled Battle Axe flew back to his hand.
“To have fought so far, indeed not simple, you are not blessed by the Golden Tree. However……I have returned to this place! It is to witness it again, the nearby Elven Ring!”
While speaking, the man swung his Battle Axe and lifted it high.
“I am Godfrey, I am the original…the King of Elden!”
Alright, this is really escalating from the young to the old, but……
“You have really chosen a good time to appear.”
Duanmu Huai, carrying his War Hammer, squinted at Godfrey.
“When your offspring were fighting and killing each other, I didn't see you come forward. Now, when they are all dead, you bothered to show up? Unfortunately, it's…too late!”
With these words, Duanmu Huai swung his War Hammer.
“The era of Supreme Will ends, the Golden Tree is about to be destroyed, and your rule is coming to an end!”
In this way, another battle started.
“Uh…..Should we really not go and help?”
At this moment, on the nearby platform, Mistelina asked uneasily as she watched the intense warfare in the Royal City. The previous Mongat was bearable, but the appearance of the original King Godfrey greatly surprised Mistelina. After all, the original king was a legendary existence, the conqueror of the Borderland leading the Golden Clan. For Mistelina and her Forest Clan, that was equivalent to the final BOSS who could stop a child from crying at night.
Indeed, Godfrey was exceptionally powerful. Every move he made was earth-shattering compared to Mongat, and even from a distance, Mistelina and the others could feel the shocks from his swinging Battle Axe. Honestly, Mistelina felt that if it were her, she probably couldn't withstand the attack of such a formidable king.
“No need to worry.”
Lani still appeared calm. She also wasn't worried indeed. Yes, Godfrey was quite strong, but Duanmu Huai was not to be underestimated either. If Mongat's attack was like a giant wave, then Duanmu Huai was like a huge reef by the sea. No matter how the wave raged, he stood firm, and even managed to fight back.
“Besides, don't you see that the others don't seem to worry either?”
“This……”
Mistelina turned her head and found that Ogis, Lorena, and others nearby didn't seem particularly worried. Especially Ogis, who was tightly clenching her small fists and stuffing them into her mouth……
“Miss Ogis, what are you doing??”
Lorena was surprised at Ogis, who just tilted her head.
“I just want to see if I can stuff my hand into my mouth……”
“It would be difficult, right? After all, your mouth is so small…”
“But before, Miss Mistelina stuffed something even bigger into her mouth.”
“Eh? Really??”
Hearing Ogis's response, Bambi, Lorena, and Melfy were all surprised and turned their gazes to Mistelina.
“Indeed, the human body is truly fascinating.”
Staring at Mistelina, Ogis seemed to have silently drawn some conclusion. Then, she turned her head again and began researching.
Meanwhile, the battle on the field below had already decided the victor.
“Boom!!”
The Battle Axe and War Hammer smashed into each other heavily before bouncing back. Godfrey then roared in anger, threw away the weapon in his hand, stretched out his hand to grab Duanmu Huai's body, and then leaped upward fiercely!
“You think you're the only one who can pull this trick?”
However, just as Godfrey was about to throw him to the ground, Duanmu Huai roared back. He stretched out his hand as well, tightly holding Godfrey's body. Then, the jetpack on Duanmu Huai's back suddenly erupted. Suddenly, the two of them turned into a small black dot in the sky!!
“Die———-!!!”
The next moment, under the effect of gravity, the two fell from hundreds of meters high. Godfrey desperately struggled to break free, but Duanmu Huai's arms held him like iron tongs. Driven by the jet stream and sucked in by gravity, the two of them crashed heavily into the Royal City like a bomb falling from the sky!!
“Boom———-!!!”
With a violent explosion, smoke and dust rose, and the original level Royal City platform collapsed under this blow, forming a giant pit.
“Phew…….”
After a while, Duanmu Huai was seen walking out of the dissipating smoke and dust, and Godfrey by his side…
Well, it was a gruesome sight.
“Trying to compete with me in strength? Good idea, but it's not practical.”
Duanmu Huai glanced at Godfrey's body again, snorted coldly, picked up his War Hammer, and looked at the Golden Tree in front of him.
Next, it's time for the final battle!
