Chapter 640 A familiar smell; the smell of death!
"No".
This was the answer that came out of the mouth of the human.
Silence.
Total silence reigned for a few seconds.
"…!" The eyes of the Beast King widened as wide as saucers.
'He rejected!' This beast was going crazy.
'He f*cking rejected!'
'Does he truly know who ElKing is?'
'Has he not seen the terror of Beyond Grade A's not to talk of one of ElKing's caliber…, he's the f*cking Lord of all Elementalists!'
"…" Ghost only smirked arrogantly.
As for the Red Deacon, he was only caught off-guard.
It took more than 10 seconds before this Red Deacon was able to speak again and when he did, his voice sounded colder. "What did you say?"
"No". Legolas repeated casually. "I refuse your offer".
Behind his red robe, the eyes of this existence narrowed. "Are you sure?"
"Yes". Legolas did not hesitate.
The eyes of the Red Deacon closed. "Then you leave me no choice".
"What a pity". He shook his head.
"You would have surely become a Beyond Grade A in the future".
BZZZ!
Terrifying elemental energy poured out of the body of the Red Deacon the next moment as engulfing the surrounding space, despite the lack of oxygen in space, this elemental energy ignited to become fire.
As soon as the Red Deacon made his move, Legolas took a deep breath.
His eyes gleamed. 'It's now or never!'
During those few seconds after the Red Deacon asked him the question and a thousand thoughts went through his mind, he went through all his options.
From the beginning, he had only one decision to make, to reject the offer.
The countless thoughts going through his mind was on how to survive.
'That's 1 vs 3'.
'Not just any 1 vs 3 either, a Grade B+ Super against 3 bonafide Calamity Grade Supers'.
'This is a ridiculous mismatch; I stand no chance'.
'Escape with my numerous abilities?'
'That's out of the question, every single one of them have more mana points than me, they'll easily outlast me in a chase'.
'Besides, I'm currently stuck in an unknown region of space'.
'I don't even know if any planet is nearby'.
'It's impossible to escape'.
'Outsmart and agitate them to fight against each other?'
'Impossible!' He scrapped the thought the instant that it came.
'The Red Deacon is no fool that's gullible to clever use of words, neither are those 2 beasts in this current situation'.
'There's no way I can agitate them into fighting each other'.
'They have the upper hand psychologically here, not the other way round'.
'Then, fight?'
From thousands, the thoughts going through his mind multiplied to tens of thousands as he rapidly made calculations in his mind.
'Fight…'
'I have less than 1% chance of surviving in a fight'.
'Against a Red Deacon alone, I stand no chance and with the addition of the Beast King and the Espionage Priest, it's actually 0% chance of survival'.
'Unless…,' His eyes gleamed. 'A miracle happens'.
Then the last option came to his mind. 'Deceive him?'
'That's worse'.
'Once I agree to become a part of the ElKing Pirates, I would automatically throw myself inside a train that I have no control over'.
'Besides, once I enter ElKing's territory, it's over'.
'I'll only become one of his many guinea pigs, I'll meet a fate worse than death which means the 3rd option is the best'.
'Then, battle strategy'.
Legolas thought over all these within that second after the Red Deacon threw his question, and after his answer as the enraged Red Deacon flexed his intimidating elemental energy, he made his move faster.

BZZZ!
The terrifying elemental energy of the Red Deacon barely erupted when 3 distinct opposing energies erupted so fast that no one could react.
White telekinesis energy, green summoner energy, and red temporal energy, these 3 energies erupted instantly as the human seemed to become a demon!
BZZZ!
The telekinesis domain activated instantly, pressing against the calamity domain of the Red Deacon that was in the process of activating.
Inside the domain of his telekinesis domain, Legolas felt high as adrenaline flooded through his body, driving his actions.
At the same time that the telekinesis domain activated, the body-gravity explosion triggered as an explosion of neutral mana in space pushed the Red Deacon backward, separating him from the human by a tiny bit.
It was at that moment that the rainbow bridge opened, the familiar rainbow bridge leading to the beast plane.
As soon as this bridge opened…
"ROAR…!"
"MOW…!"
"SHRIEK…!"
"CROAK…!"
Loud sounds of different terrifying beasts reverberated from the beast plane as millions of beasts started surging out through the rainbow bridge.
They filled everywhere in an instant, making this area rowdy and chaotic.
Despite this chaos though, Legolas could not escape if he tried, this was why he had no choice but to go on the attack.
And this was when his contracted beasts came charging out.
BZZZ!
Legolas integrated with Predator before amalgamating all 4 of his contracted beasts as he became the Void Monkey King, yet he didn't stop there.
Duplicating himself, he created 2 more Void Monkey Kings.
3 Void Monkey Kings amid an army of millions of beasts, the Red Deacon already lost sight of his opponent but Legolas' eyes remained fixated on his target.
Creating beast mirages to increase the confusion effect, he finally went on the attack as his pitch-black Obsidian Spear became coated with his aggressive green Summoner energy and his red temporal energy.
Legolas stabbed and space shook!
All 3 Void Monkey Kings stabbed.
Time froze as the temporal control; pause took effect while time accelerated for Legolas with the effects of the temporal control; acceleration.
The Red Deacon could not move, all the attacks hit.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
And instantly after they hit, the rewind; degradation ability kicked in.
The red robe of the Red Deacon turned into silk and mana the next moment, exposing the real appearance of the Red Deacon.
This was a terrifying existence with the legs of a dinosaur, sharp blades in place of hands, with the head of a human with demon-like horns.
Thick azure scales protected his gigantic body.
Yet, attacks were already coming as soon as the red robe that also acted as his armor was degraded, all the attacks hit.
Bam! Bam! Bam!
"Ugh…!" The Red Deacon coughed blood.
"…!" Ghost was shocked to his core.
'This human…!'
Legolas was about to start a 2nd barrage of attacks following the momentum of the first since temporal control; pause was still active but…, he moved!
The Red Deacon moved!
Legolas' eyes widened. 'I almost forgot, this ability weakens when used against stronger opponents, it lasted only a second, how powerful is he?!'
Red Deacons were the commanders of the ElKing Pirates.
Every single one of them were terrifyingly powerful combatants. Legolas knew this, he thought he already rated his combat power high enough but still he underestimated this Red Deacon.
"Insolent human!" The Red Deacon growled.
"You shall become ElKing's prey!"
"If dragging your corpse there is what I have to do, so be it!"
"Self-Created Elemental Ability: Fire Commandment; Furnace Purgatory!"
The fire elemental energy of this Elementalist exploded.
BOOM!
-----
[CRITICAL HIT!]
[WARNING! Your health points have reduced by 20%!]
----
"Ugh…!" Legolas coughed blood as he flew through space, colliding through all the beasts that were on his path.
Legolas brought all these beasts to create confusion and perhaps hold the Red Deacon down, but they only served as nuisance and pests to him.
This Red Deacon was on a whole other level of power to Admiral Gwen.
Gritting his teeth even as his grip on his spear tightened, Legolas kicked at space as he accelerated back towards this Elementalist to fight.
BOOM!
He received another terrifying hit.
BAM!
He received a concussion.
POW!
He was pummeled.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Ghost and Gaufrid didn't even have to step in, they only watched as this terrifying Calamity Grade powerhouse destroyed the human.
The 3 strongest Red Deacons under ElKing were Grade A+ powerhouses, while the remaining 5 were extremely close to that level.
In the Calamity Grade, they were monsters, Legolas stood no chance.
BOOM!
Another attack ruined his internal organs, basically crippling him.
"UGH…!" Legolas coughed blood even as he felt immense pain.
The battle only lasted 5 seconds.
He could no longer move, he felt too weak to move.
Blood flowed from all orifices in his body.
At that moment, Legolas perceived a smell, a familiar one.
He perceived the familiar scent of death.
Instantly, a memory was replayed in his head.
The memory of his battle against the Bug Conqueror.
He died in that battle, and at this moment, Legolas felt that feeling again.
'I'm about to die again!' His sense of crisis rose to the peak.
'I doubt the influence of the Underworld extends all the way here'.
'This time, I won't be able to resurrect'.
'I'll truly die this time!'
Legolas felt unwilling. 'I don't want to die!'
'I DON'T WANT TO DIE!'
He struggled in his mind but his body could not move, he felt too weak.
A hand grabbed him by the head the next moment as the Red Deacon looked into his eyes. "In what way do you want to die?"
Hearing those words, Legolas felt regret and desperation grip him.
'I don't want to die!'
'I don't want to die!'
-----
You have triggered Passive Ability: Battle Controller!
[WARNING! Not enough momentum to trigger Unrivalled God Mode!]
----
Legolas despaired. 'I don't want to die!'
Looking into the blood-red eyes of the Red Deacon, he only saw death.
Looking death in the eyes pushed him to desperation.
-----
You have activated active ability: Partial Telepathy!
----
Click!
As soon as Legolas activated this ability, pushed by his desperation, something seemed to click in his head as a dam seemed to have broken.
-----
[Congratulations! You have evolved Partial Telepathy stolen special ability to become Telepathy!]
>Telepathy: When activated, you gain the ability to sense the thoughts and intentions of others. Effortlessly, you can now enter a victim's mind and access their plans, interests, and desires. With minor effort, you can now intrude into your target's mind, plant memories and command your targets<
----
Legolas felt an instant change.
His perception of the world seemed to change.
He started hearing voices, the voices of those around him.
'What a pity, he would have made such a good guinea pig to boss, perhaps I would have even received a promotion'.
Legolas' eyes widened; these were the thoughts of the Red Deacon.
'The enemy is open, I can bite now, if only master will order the Ghost Wolf to leave the way'.
Legolas' eyes widened; these were the thoughts of one of his tamed beasts.
'I want to use my ultimate ability but I don't have the space'.
'My true battle talent is being shackled fighting like this, this is not my true fighting style but master doesn't know'.
'If only master can read my thoughts'.
Legolas was shocked.
This was the ultimate state that he envisioned.
The ultimate state of his calamity path that he envisioned.
At that moment, his game interface lit up.
-----
[Congratulations! Your Calamity Path- Calamity Path of the Arch Grandmaster has achieved the state of Apotheosis!]
[Congratulations! You have gained…]
----
Legolas' Summoner energy exploded.
BOOM!
