Green Monster Epic

Although Allen appeared to be fighting fiercely, he was actually quite reserved, always holding back and not committing fully.

He was still somewhat wary of the Church of Nature and its allies, unsure if they had set a trap for him. So, after the organizer assigned tasks and launched the attack, he only suppressed his assigned target, while casually tormenting the surrounding cavalry.

That is, until he noticed ripples forming on the mistlock shield above him, indicating that some force was attacking the shield and draining its energy.

The other powerhouses obviously noticed this as well, but they weren't surprised. After all, their ambush location was not far from the Lionheart Kingdom's border fortress. When the battle began and the mistlock rose, the powerhouses stationed in the fortress would sense it.

Unconsciously, everyone's attacks became more intense. Allen couldn't help but inject more power into his own fight, putting even more pressure on his opponent, Spencer, who had to cast healing spells more and more frequently.

Vernon's sudden assassination ultimately failed. Severely wounded, he was slammed against the mistlock shield. Immediately after, bolts of holy lightning struck the spot where he fell, his fate unknown.

Just as Allen cleaved Spencer away, he turned to see Rhys smash Vernon away with his scepter, and also saw Rhys's arm being cut by Vernon at the last moment.

The poison smeared on the dagger instantly seeped into Rhys's arm through the wound, turning the blood flowing out a purplish-black color. Rhys frowned and immediately cast a detoxification spell on the wound.

Just as Rhys was about to take out a vial of high-level antidote and drink it, a gust of wind rushed towards him, forcing him to stop. He backhanded with the scepter, the head of which was inlaid with a huge, flawless crystal.

Boom!!!

A muffled crash echoed from the metal shaft of the ornate scepter. Although Allen's instantaneous strike was blocked by Rhys, the immense force still shattered the wreckage of the carriage beneath Rhys's feet, forcing Rhys back several steps before he stopped.

With Fury ignited and Smokewave Step fully unleashed, Allen finally revealed his strongest form, his figure transforming into a dark shadow that crossed hundreds of meters. In just a few breaths, he was already in front of Rhys.

"Damn it!!"

"Protect His Holiness!!"

Two battle priests had just joined forces to severely wound a legendary powerhouse who had been mentally stunned. Just as they were about to finish him off, they noticed the danger to their protected target behind them. They unhesitatingly abandoned the life of the powerhouse they were about to reap and turned back towards Allen's path, attempting to intercept him midway.

Behind Allen, the high-ranking Holy Knight Spencer, who had been cleaved away by Allen, was much weaker, but upon seeing Allen's target, he quickly gathered his strength and chased after him. However, the distance between him and Allen, who was equally outstanding in speed, only widened, creating a gap of several breaths.

This was enough time for Allen to do many things. The raging fury ignited the greatsword in his hand, and Allen casually unleashed two Fury Slashes, each flying towards the two battle priests.

"Get out of the way!!"

Before the sound even arrived, the two battle priests were struck by Allen's Fury Slashes. They were sent flying back even faster than they had charged towards Allen.

Replenishing the expended fury, Allen simultaneously retracted his hands and raised them high, jumping high into the air from a dozen meters away, landing directly on Rhys's location.

"Holy Protection!!"

A sacred gemstone on Rhys's belt shattered, and another powerful protective divine spell instantly appeared above Rhys's head.

Boom!!!

The ground trembled violently, as if a magnitude ten earthquake had occurred. Dust flew everywhere, creating a mushroom cloud, and countless knights and their mounts roared and swayed in a commotion.

A hundred-meter-wide crater appeared before Allen. Pope Rhys's figure had vanished, but he knew that the other party was not in mortal danger under his full-force strike. Just as he was about to attack again, Spencer, who had been chasing close behind, merged with his mount, the tip of his lance condensing a point of light, aiming straight for Allen's vital point in the back.

Dragging Bonecleaver across the ground, Allen spun around and swung upwards, meeting the attack head-on without any fancy moves. With a clang of metal and a storm of energy, the two were simultaneously pushed back a dozen meters.

A pillar of white light surged from the ground, heading straight for Allen's face. With a twist of his wrist, Allen held Bonecleaver upright in front of him, and the demon-breaking runes within the sword instantly activated and covered the blade. The pillar of light and the greatsword clashed on the spot.

Whoosh~~

Rhys emerged from the ground in a disheveled state, his aura as a Saint seeming somewhat diminished. Clearly, although Allen's previous strike did not inflict much damage on the Pope, the burden of the collision of forces had taken a toll on him.

A powerful Holy Light divine spell once again pushed Allen away from Rhys. Clearly, the other party was very wary of this demigod-level powerhouse's strength. The two battle priests and Holy Knight Spencer, who had been forced back by Allen earlier, also made timely adjustments, rebuilding a line of defense between Rhys and Allen, as well as the four attacking powerhouses.

Allen slowly pulled his deeply buried legs out of the ground. Streams of faith power slowly emerged from the fury vortex within his body, and under his simple control, they regenerated into powerful divine power. Just now, Allen, lost in the heat of battle, had once again entered a state of resonance with the Celestial Star, finally giving him the opportunity to autonomously control divine power in actual combat for the first time.

Some fearless knights around, seeing Allen's movements become sluggish, seized the opportunity to gather into a team and launch an attack on Allen. However, although Allen's fusion and regeneration of divine power had not yet been completed, he was already able to cope with these human warriors with ease, relying solely on the strength of his demigod body.

Soon, Allen's figure was submerged in the crowd. By the time he re-emerged from the crowd, his black armor was already stained with blood, looking extremely ferocious.

The powerhouses who were in the midst of battle and paying attention to Allen were somewhat strange about Allen's sudden weakening. However, everyone's tasks were clear at this time, and the ripples rising on the mistlock shield were reminding everyone that their time was limited, so no one paid more attention to Allen's behavior because of this.

Divine power flowed in his blood, devouring and changing the liquid fury it encountered along the way. As the energy conversion in his entire body was completed, Allen's pupils gradually changed from dark green to pure gold.

One by one, the brave human warriors had already forgotten life and death, only hoping to inflict a heavy blow on the enemy in front of them. But when their eyes met the majestic and sacred gaze, their souls and bodies seemed to be frozen, stuck there, and then gently patted into meat paste by the greatsword that exuded even more intense brilliance.

"Slaying a Saint!!"

A grand voice rang out, shaking the entire mistlock space. The mere appearance of the sound wave caused two ripples to form on the mistlock shield.

As everyone turned their heads, the target of Allen's new move now had an added layer of panic and shock. The scepter and divine scriptures were constantly flipped and waved, and countless magic powers surged from the ornaments and equipment on his body. The figure of Rhys, the Pope of the Church of War, was gradually enveloped by clusters of colorful magic auras.

Boom!!!

A black mushroom cloud soared into the sky, directly breaking the already dilapidated mistlock shield!!
