Chapter 167 - 161.3 : A Book And A Rock (2/2)

The hand grabbed the blue beam and easily absorbed it then it pointed its index toward the unprepared Gargoyle and shot off an exactly similar beam.

Suffering from the same attack as Esdik, the gargoyle was not able to react as the beam of light struck his forehead and sent him flying a few meters away before his body laid on the floor, lifeless.

To suffer from your own strongest attack, unprepared, no one could achieve that unless they have total immunity to that attack.

With one less enemy, the pressure lessened, the four-strong warriors became like raging bulls as they slaughtered twelve other gargoyles, no one of them died, however, they suffered multiple injuries and their simple white clothes were now dyed red but you could notice that their tattoos became brighter the more blood they had on their body.

Swiftly, Uyo joined this side, being the superior one in terms of strength and Realm, it only took him a single swing of his long staff to smash the neck of one of the tall warriors and kill him.

Although he killed him, he couldn't help but astonished, being at the Deity Realm, he should be able to kill a Mortal with the flick of his finger, but his staff met some resistance when it hit that warrior. Furthermore, seeing their brother die, the three remaining ones became even angrier as they roared loudly and ignored the other gargoyles whilst charging at Uyo, who wasn't fazed by this and reacted calmly.

'Mortals but wielding the strength of Spirit Realm cultivators.... no... almost Heavenly Realm?'

He didn't need an Immortal Sense to gauge their strength, being near them, he could feel their strong bloody aura, even their killing intent reached an extreme intensity.

The three of them leaped at him at the same time, each from a direction, one aimed to grab his legs, the second punched at his chest and the last made a grabbing motion at his neck.

If it was someone at the Spirit Realm or even at the Heavenly Realm, they would have trouble dealing with their combined attacks. Their speed was unsuitable for Mortals and their sheer strength is not something that should be underestimated.

Uyo used his free hand to meet the incoming punch while swinging his staff at his back, without needing to look, as for the one who aimed for his legs, he didn't physically block him, instead, he used his Nether Energy to conjure an Earth Shield which surrounded all of his body.

Despite being only at the Deity Realm, his whole life was a non-stop train of battles, putting aside his great military achievement, his combat abilities are top notch and it wouldn't be long before he gets promoted again.

The Shield focused on his legs, despite that fact, the incoming punch and grab were unable to break through it and the two tall and muscular warriors were hit at the same time by Uyo.

The staff smashed into the warrior's chest, sending him flying high in the air, as for the other one, his hand, which was stopped by the shield, now met with Uyo's hand, which broke the big hand's bones, even the shoulder was disclocated, yet the warrior didn't even emitt a cry of pain, he didn't even flinch, abandonning his right hand, he used his left to swipe at Uyo's head but it was totally futile, his leg couldn't even crack the shield.

Uyo didn't just watch, when he shattered the warriors hand, he grabbed his staff again and smashed it at the last man, who wanted to grab his legs, the staff smashed into his back, shattering his spine and by the next second, the long staff struck his skull, killing him on the spot.

As Uyo was going to deal with the warrior who didn't give up and continued kicking his shield, his calm face had a drastic change as a book literally appeared in front of his face and the rotten hand stretched from it and touched his hood.

'Damn!'

The Batallion Commander ignored the warrior and hastily retreated from the stretching hand, however, it was too late as by the time he retreated back, the hand touched his head for a full second. He suffered no injuries whatsoever, but what made him despair and feel terrified is that thirty percent of his Nether Energy reserve disappeared.

'Fearsome! Too fearsome!'

As he cautiously backed away with both of his eyes fixated on the book, Uyo felt an instinctive fear as he couldn't even see or detect the book, it just popped in front of him from thin air.

'If this book and the Golem are THIS strong, then how about the one who summoned them.' Uyo glanced at Arthur, who was still standing in the same position. He wanted to attack him first but he soon abandoned such foolish thoughts, even if he knew Arthur couldn't respond to his attacks, he just didn't dare to attack him as there may be traps or perhaps those two strange things would become offensive because he attacked their master.
