Chapter 252 The Puppet Show
Hearing that Maximus can solo the Tier 7 Lord Abyss monster, most bystanders were in disbelief.
Although this feat is possible, few people in history were really able to accomplish it.
Beside him, Skye looked worriedly.
"Do you want help?" "No, I'll mark the Abyss monster that should be suitable for you," Maximus said.
"Are you sure?"
"Hmmm."
"Then be careful..." Skye sighed.
She knew that once Maximus set his mind to something, there was no changing it.
Furthermore, during the ten years of fighting Abyss monsters.
Maximus proved to himself again and again that he was the strongest existence in the same tier ever.
After looking at the various Abyss monsters he marked.
Skye didn't bother anymore and flew toward them.
...
Seeing that there was no longer anyone beside him.
Maximus looked at the Tier 7 Lord Abyss monster in front of him.
Inside his domain, this Abyss monster looked like a toy ready for his disposal.
"What an Abyss monster..." Maximus smiled.
If not for being worried about exposing his strength.
Maximus could crush the likes of this just with his domain.
"U-unbound me, l-lowly being..." The Abyss monster struggled to speak.
"Lord-level Abyss monsters are really intelligent," Maximus marveled.
"L-lowly b-being." The Abyss monster shot a killing intent.
"Don't worry, the show is about to begin..." Maximus sneered.
Converging his domain, a string-like substance suddenly began to emerge, binding the Abyss monster.
The Lord Abyss monster looked with horror as he felt his mind and body being consumed.
No matter how it struggles, the string-like substance consumes him slowly but surely.
Like a puppet who lost its soul, the abyss monster stopped moving and stared blankly at him.
Trying his new toy, Maximus carefully studied its power.
"A storm-wind elemental-type abyss monster?"
"Tsk, tsk this should be fun."
"Now let the play begin..." Maximus smiled.
Soon, like a puppet, the Abyss monster fought Maximus as if they were performing an opera.
Buildings after buildings was destroyed, a few individuals were even affected and nearly died.
Looking at the show, Maximus was not satisfied.
"Not enough..."
He felt that the danger was not enough, not showing the true danger of the lord-level abyss monster.
Inputting his mana, Wind and storm began to emerge as the Abyss monster rampaged.
Maximus was also like a born actor, performing dangerous and near-death stunts.
The exchange between the two was fiercer than the two Tier 7 Lord-level Abyss and the top squads.
This ultimate show also slightly stopped the battle in the surroundings.
Looking at such an exciting fight, the top squads remaining in the area couldn't help but admire.
"Do you think that kid can defeat that abyss monster?"
"There should be a chance..."
Although defeating a Lord-level Abyss on the same tier is hard, it's not impossible.
Few people in history were able to do it.
Like the three apex sovereigns guarding the outpost.
In the past, they had a history of killing Abyss monsters of the same level.
"Don't forget that this Abyss monster may have an Abyss source inside of them."
"This-"
"Then it's impossible!"
The group woke up in their fantasies.
The Lord-level Abyss monsters killed in the past on the same level didn't have an Abyss source embedded inside of them.
Unless you are the reincarnation of Malgron, the strongest being in the world, defeating such an abyss monster is impossible.
"Don't worry, that kid should be fine for a while."
"That's right! Let's quickly kill these two and help that kid."
They quickly agreed and became fiercer in the fight.
However, the two Lord-level Abyss monsters are not their only enemies.
There are also millions of Tier 7 elite Abyss monsters besieging them.
Although most of them are already Tier 8 with at least 30 percent control of law.
They are still heavily at a disadvantage.
Each of them who had undergone hundreds to thousands of years of battle, was beginning to sustain some injuries.
...
Maximus, who was performing a one-sided play, looked at the situation.
"Not good..." He frowned.
At the current rate, their stronghold might be destroyed before those apex sovereigns came back.
Unfortunately, the teleportation array in the stronghold was blocked, or they could have called for reinforcement.
The Tier 8 Lord-level Abyss monster earlier is quite smart.
The earlier attack on the stronghold was just a distraction to hide the fact that its main target is the teleportation array.
The apex sovereigns also hadn't thought much about reinforcement either.
Each of them was a top being in their continent
Seeking help is equivalent to admitting that they were incompetent and weak.
Anyway, with them here, there would be no serious consequences that can happen.
At most, a few top squads will be eliminated or so.
Such a loss is not bad compared to their loss of dignity.
...
After a while, Maximus thought of a plan.
Since he can control this Lord Abyss monster to perform a play.
Why not control all the Abyss monsters to perform a grander play?
Although it's harder to control, at least he can minimize the casualties.
Thinking of the feasibility of his plan, he immediately began to move.
Flying all around the battlefield while dodging the stormy wind attacks.
Maximus quickly spread his domain and bound all the Abyss monsters in his domain.
This move didn't go unnoticed.
As some of the most perceptive ones noticed a pause.
However, the fast-paced battlefield prevented them from thinking too much.
All the abnormalities that didn't affect the battlefield were quickly put aside by them.
Maximus, seeing this, heaved a sigh of relief.
Although his 'Origin' Domain was almost invisible now due to multiple merging of copied domains and a special physique.
Maximus still had worries, as the people here were not simple.
Now that no one bothered with this phenomenon, he can finally complete this grand play.
"1...2...3... Action!" Maximus thought internally.
Instantly, the Abyss monsters began to be aggressive and attacked all around wantonly, regardless of foe or allies.
The sudden change in the battlefield caused panic.
Unfortunately, the Abyss monsters were like unmerciful killing machines and didn't give them time to reflect.
Bombardment after bombardment fell one after another.
Soon, various fatalities occurred on the battlefield.
The faces of the various top squads also gradually began to be distorted as they became insane.
They seemed to be more and more scary than the Abyss monsters.
Each of them had red eyes, as they saw killing the Abyss monsters as their only goal before they died.
With power raging in their bodies, they seemed to regard the battlefield as their burial ground.
Like lunatics with no fear, they couldn't help but add more glamour as they fought with all their best.
Like a clash of centuries, multiple individuals and Abyss monsters began to fall like flies.
Meanwhile, Maximus, who was lazily watching the fight, nodded in satisfaction.
"It seems that my plan is effective..."
Looking at the fervor and fighting spirits, and the dwindling number of Abyss monsters.
Maximus flew down and hurriedly healed his fallen comrades back to life.
As he only controlled the Abyss monsters, he couldn't do much about the rest.
He could only make the fight more chaotic and intense so that they wouldn't be able to pay attention to him.
As for the fatalities, with a sweep of his domain, all of them came back alive.
With only a few seconds of death, healing them back to life was quite easy.
He only needed to fix their bodies, mend their souls, and rearrange their laws.
As he had already copied their domains and special physiques, all of this was done easily.
Of course, he had done it covertly and didn't heal them all the way.
After waking up, they should heal for a few months to years depending on their injuries.
He also picked some Abyss sources from the Abyss monsters he personally killed.
As the fight raged on, hundreds of thousands of Abyss monsters and thousands of individuals from the stronghold remained.
The remaining thousand were the toughest ones, with at least 70 percent control of law or having awakened their physique.
Looking at the relaxed look on their faces, Maximus thought of making it more exciting.
However, before he could control the Abyss monsters to attack more fiercely.
He felt the Tier 8 Abyss monster being besieged by the apex sovereigns die.
"It's done?" He muttered.
"Then let's also finish this..."
Without wasting time, he let the Lord Abyss monster retreat, taking the others with him.
Usually, no Abyss monster would ever retreat, but a Lord-level Abyss monster is a smart one.
It's like a commander in an army capable of advancing and retreating.
Looking at the retreating Abyss monsters, most of the remaining individuals in the stronghold heaved a sigh in relief.
There were also a few battle maniacs who were unsatisfied and wanted to fight more.
Turning around to the battlefield, the stronghold was devastated.
Almost all the buildings and structures were in ruins.
The whole place seemed to be bombarded by missiles.
Looking sadly at the battlefield, they couldn't help but think of their fallen comrades.
Lor, looking at his squad mate who was alive and kicking earlier and now a cold corpse, couldn't help but sigh.
He took out his spiritual consciousness to put the body in a storage ring when he suddenly felt something different.
"Huh? Heartbeat?!"
