Chapter 710: Legendary vs Leisure (1/2)
Halmut trembled and clutched his claws tightly but said nothing in direct response to Jack. He glared at Jack, gradually turning his fuming rage into an even more twisted grin. ”I'm done with you, Jack… I don't want to wait any longer…”
The Sun God launched the first attack of the match-ups. The divided battles had finally been set off and there was no going back now.
Halmut's breath attack was launched as the Sun Dragon threw a slew of light pillars at the hero. When Jack threw his first spectral flares, they were soon canceled by Tralbok. Kylon said nothing, wearing a blank stare as she spat out steam explosions left and right around Jack.
Jack appeared just outside of the attacks but Halmut was already on top of him with incredible speed, putting his upgraded armor to full use. And Jack also felt himself get slowed, finding himself caught again in Tralbok's interference. But Jack cast time stop to counter Tralbok and shifted into a four-bloodline transformation to take Halmut on.
As Jack's arms extended and become wings, a second set of arms grew out of Jack's torso. Those became club-like forearms with incredible punching and grabbing abilities while covered in barbs to tear apart enemies. A tail sprouted from the small of Jack's back and black-purple flames danced over Jack's entire body.
That transformation left everyone in the treasure chamber speechless for a moment. The challengers had all been amazed at some of Kartonia's unique people, but Jack's shifting abilities were beyond anything they could've expected. Both twins were shocked to see that side of Jack as they now understood why Jack gave them a feeling of trouble as a possible foe.
Halmut wasn't sure how Jack had managed to grow a second set of arms nor what creature it was that Jack found to gain such a skill, but understood that the Jack before him now was the strongest any of the legendary gods had ever seen. He wouldn't admit it out loud but Halmut was glad to have the powerful support duo of Kylon and Tralbok aiding him with the unpredictable Jack.
Moranti and Lunara, however, weren't distracted at all by Jack's transformation. They were too busy taking the initiative in their own battles.
Moranti unleashed his scythe right from the get-go, hurling hundred-meter spatial slashes with precision and relentless fury. The God of Space had Torian on his toes. While the speeding duo of Sillo and Tryes played second fiddle and kept Moratni from all-out pursuing Torian, the Thundering God fully understood that this wasn't the same Moranti that they had faced time and time again in the past. Torian was sure that Moranti had leveled up, making him on par with Halmut and a threat that his team of three may not be able to handle.
With that in mind, Torian immediately changed his strategy without verbally announcing it. Torian focused on stalling and keeping Moranti at bay along with Sillo and Tyres. He was afraid of what would happen should Moranti suddenly join Jack and take on Halmut, let alone what would happen should he get caught unguarded.
Lunara took a different approach, as did Grixor. Both of them understood each other and knew what was going to happen. It was the battle to see who was the ultimate tank. For that reason, Lunara, Grixor, and the Flood Dragons fought in their full-sized bestial forms.
