1435 Heroes Part 2 (2/2)

Damn it. He is actually hiding a powerful equipment here?

The power of that equipment was so terrifying that it would not have been allowed to exist on Myers Mainland. The equipment is a live! A godly item, something belonged to the gods.

The Lord of Glory's double quickly calculated in his mind. He then sped up and headed straight for Saleen's current location.

There were magic arrays or statues attacking the Lord of Glory's double continuously along the way, which he casually repelled with his scepter. His confidence grew as his power recovered.

It was but a piece of equipment and there had not been any mage at Saleen's level had been able to wield equipment that powerful. It was worth noting that equipment with weapon spirits in them came with conditions. That mage was at level 11, which meant that he was mostly capable of mastering items with level 13 weapon spirits.

Walls after walls in the Imperial City of the Abyss were toppled by the Lord of Glory's double. He had no intentions of taking detours and flying would have invoked attacks from magic arrays. As such, he resorted to simply barging his way through.

It was merely less than 20 seconds when Saleen heard those noises and the Lord of Glory's double was already at the side of the Cemetery of Heroes.

A barrier right before Saleen disappeared all of a sudden—a trick played by the grandmaster, for fear that the Lord of Glory would have hesitated to get into the cemetery.

Soldiers were buried at the fringes of the Cemetery of Soldiers and the ones of the highest level were but level 12. It was not until one reached somewhere near the center that heroes surpassing level 14 were found. Saleen had been able to get inside back then due to protection from the Divine Tree Magic Tower, and did not know any of that.

Yellow light beneath Saleen's feet flickered again when he saw the Lord of Glory show, heading straight for the trap laid by the grandmaster.

The Lord of Glory halted for a bit. What he saw was that Saleen had burst through a barrier and entered a huge cemetery. He was then thinking if he should get inside a cemetery of ancient humans.

If the ancient humans were to learn that he had desecrated their cemetery, then it would have been the end of his divine kingdoms. Even if he were to run to the edge of their crystal wall system, he would still have been hunted down and killed.

No. This is just a cemetery. If there are still ancient humans around, why would the cemetery look so dilapidated?

The Lord of Glory's double saw what Saleen was after as well. There was a box at a grave, emanating powerful lightning energies.

He could not have afforded to let the mage acquire that equipment. The Lord of Glory became anxious and forcefully suppressed his fear of ancient humans, before charging into the Cemetery of Heroes.

He was able to arrive at Saleen's location and came right before the grave in just a split second. He extended his hand and dug the box out. The Lord of Glory's double then turned around and smirked at Saleen, saying, ”So mage, you're here for this then?”

He was saying that in magic tongue. It was apparent that the Lord of Glory was quite educated.

”Not actually.” Saleen shook his head and detonated the box. The eight ball lightning were connected to the power of his soul.

The Lord of Glory was startled. He found the power in the box was not as high as he imagined. The eight ball lightning exploded, taking half of the Lord of Glory's double's body, which then recovered with a flicker.

The Lord of Glory's face turned gloomy. He thought that he had gotten a godly item from the Thunder God, yet that turned out to be a trap laid out by the mage. The trap was so intricate that even he was duped.

”Lord of Glory, have you taken Nailisi's soul away?” Saleen asked.

”Nailisi, you mean that demon?”

”Yes.”

”Why should I tell you?” The Lord of Glory saw the pain in Saleen's eyes and felt a lot better deep down. It appeared that the demon that he killed was rather important to the mage after all.

Killing the mage himself might not have even caused him fear, but killing those close to him proved more excruciating than killing him instead. Humans, pathetic. But if it weren't for such weaknesses, how would the gods have been able to persist for as long as they did eh?

”Man, gods are indeed annoying. Saleen is asking you something. Why don't you just answer him?” The grandmaster sneaked up behind the Lord of Glory. A yellow magic array lit up beneath the lord of glory's feet. It was a piece of bone crystal of the giant that Saleen gave to the grandmaster, and he was able to casually cast a huge magic array with it.

”You're correct. The demigod is indeed a cocky one!” An archer climbed out of his gravestone as well.

”Demigods are not easy targets actually. But in a place like this with no light and a light-type god still dare to venture inside. Tell me there isn't something wrong with this guy's brains eh?”

”I sure think something is wrong. Just look at how his face twitch!” A level 15 heroic spirit pointed at the Lord of Glory's face and said.

The Lord of Glory's face was twitching out of fear. He was quite practically paralyzed from fright. Even if it had not been for the grandmaster's magic array, he still would not have been able to lift his legs.

”Well, umm, demigod, answer Saleen's question eh,” A hero who had been a female assassin urged him. She was only currently at level 14, but she had been level 16 when she was alive. The form of a hero served no use to the assassin instead. The critical hit ability that she had been so proud of disappeared when she became a heroic spirit.

The expressions on the Lord of Glory's face changed back and forth, not knowing if he should plead for mercy or attack.

But then again, it seemed that he was unable to attack.

The Lord of Glory tried to lift the ball of light in his hand and quickly found his body petrified. It was the same type of bone crystal of the giant Saleen had, and yet the grandmaster was able to lay down a magic array capable of fossilizing even gods. Saleen, on the other hand, was only able to absorb energy within and run.
