Will of chaos

Chapter 1160 Cap 1158: Investigation On Planet Jareh Part 3

I was again in the area where the monster invasion happened, the planetary shield device is working perfectly, but the bodies and blood that was everywhere before disappeared leaving only an empty desert area behind. 

"What happened here?" (I) 

"Everything in the area was burned, everything was contaminated." (Silvia) 

"I didn't have time to study the curse, are you sure it wasn't a curse?" (Érica) 

"Yes, it was mainly Holy Power, I also felt that there was some kind of Authority, but I couldn't figure out whose." (I) 

"I don't understand, this description can be associated with the way an Evil God acts, but the amount of Holy Power..." (Elizabeth) 

"Do you know something?" (I) 

"Not sure, not many leads left now." (Elizabeth) 

"Actually I collected a lot of those meat roots and I also took pieces from the monsters." (Érica) 

"Let me see the roots and the flesh." (Elizabeth) 

---------------- 

Pov Athena: 

We've been traveling for 2 days so far, I spend most of my time in meditation, but unfortunately, we've been the target of monster attacks more and more. 

I also have a bad feeling all the time, these monsters attacking us don't seem to be doing it wildly like you'd expect, they're doing it in waves with no time to rest. 

"How many attacks has it been?" (I) 

"There were 10, individually they are not a threat, but their numbers are a nuisance." (Loki) 

"Before it might have been those madmen who manipulate the bodies, but these enemies now..." (I) 

When I fought these monsters, their bodies looked like Celestinos with the difference that they didn't have a nose, ears, and hair on their entire body. 

Their eyes and their mouths when opened only showed darkness, pale bodies, and no signs of life, every attack of mine seemed to be going through a hard wall, but when they are defeated their bodies disappear like smoke. 

"They look familiar, maybe we've been fighting the same monsters over and over this whole time or they're summoned creatures." (Loki) 

Sigh 

"Has Mistress Zadiris managed to find any leads on them yet?" (I) 

"No and it's making me a little frustrated..." (Zadiris) 

While I was talking to Loki the person mentioned appeared beside us with a vein popping out of his forehead. 

"At least I think I know what the creature is, it's not a monster and if I'm right we're already caught in its trap." (Zadiris) 

"I can't feel space that well, but we might have a safe way out of this." (Zadiris) 

"What is this thing?" (I) 

"That might be a Legion of Death." (Zadiris) 

"An Undead?" (I) 

"Almost, but much worse, a normal Undead is an individual or collection of individuals, but a Legion of Death is an entire Planet." (Zadiris) 

"You mean our enemies are a planet full of the Undead?" (Loki) 

"No, I mean a Legion of Death is the planet itself, these things we are fighting are Echoes of Death, distorted memories of those who once lived on your world." (Zadiris) 

"A planet is as alive as the creatures that inhabit it, but does not have a consciousness or mind of its own, a Legion of Death is a Dead Planet filled with death energy that has concentrated the remnants of mind, memory, and consciousness of those who died on it, are intelligent and powerful at the level of a Demigod." (Zadiris) 

"Is he stronger than you?" (I) 

"I don't know, I've never fought this thing directly, but he's at the upper hand, they command all the elements and they have the Aura strong enough to compare to a God, I don't even know how to kill this thing." (Zadiris) 

I couldn't even imagine that such a thing existed, Astrid said that this path is the same as they've done several times, so I don't know why only this time we're together it happened, I would understand if Zenos was here, but he's not here. 

"You seem very calm, you already have a way of dealing with him, don't you?" (Loki) 

"His weakness will always be the same as any Undead, we don't need to kill him either, we just need to leave..." (Zadiris) 

-------------- 

Pov Zenos: 

"Tell me again, why did I agree to do this?" (I) 

"Because it's fun." (Elizabeth) 

"No, I'm sure it wasn't because of that." (I) 

"You can test that thing out, plus you saw the kids helping with the rebuild." (Silvia) 

"Using children to convince me was a low blow." (I) 

Sigh 

"Why always me..." (I) 

"You're not even going alone, so don't complain." (Elizabeth) 

"We thank you deeply for helping our world." 

"Your help saves many lives." (Yara) 

"You are more polite than High Priestess Yara who travels with me." (I) 

"We each experience different things as we move away from the main body, our personalities can drift away from each other over the centuries." (Yara) 

I was with dozens of people, each of them possessing Authority and Holy Power, there were even two Demigods who came from Border Town to help. 

In front of us is a spatial opening surrounded by plants that leads to a newly created Separate Space where the enemy has been isolated away from the planet Jareh. 

"Just to make sure I understand, do I have to use my Holy Weapon?" (I) 

"No, you can use whatever holy attack you want, but you must keep your body covered by your Authority, you must not use your Territory either." (Elizabeth) 

"I see, when are we going in?" (I) 

"In a few more minutes, Val is waiting for everyone to be ready and some are praying to their Gods." (Elizabeth) 

I look and see that some praying, some of them are High Priests or Holy Warriors of some God, must be asking their Gods for strength before the combat. 

According to the World Tree, the corruption was not completely eradicated, it returned to the creatures' bodies before being isolated in a separate space, Elizabeth already seems to know something about the Evil God responsible for this. 

The Alchemists of this world were able to test the samples Erica had collected, Elizabeth was also able to take a closer look, she seems to understand things a little more but refuses to tell me what she discovered. 

"See, it's opening." (Elizabeth) 

"Let's go!!" 

After one created we ran in, even before entering I had already used my Aura and Authority around me, when we arrived on the other side it was exactly the same landscape I saw in that vision. 

The white sun, the earth bathed in black ink, the sky a different color, but this time there were thousands of creatures flying across the sky and running towards us on land. 

This time they weren't just octopuses, they seemed to have more humanoid bodies with tentacles for arms and many others coming out of their backs, just like before those tentacles still had mouths at their ends full of sharp teeth. 

"< Blood Eclipse Dragon Demigod Awakening: 90% >" (I) 

As soon as I step through the gate and step away from the others while unleashing all my power, I dare not take this fight lightly and so I will go all out from the start. 

My body grows with each beat of my heart, at the same time I concentrate my Aura together with my Authority to the level of a second layer of skin on my body. 

Just like Arash taught me, the time has come to fight like a Dragon, no fancy plans or incredible magic, just the purest brutality. 

I release my killing intent completely and stop thinking about everything, focusing only on the movement of my body, my surroundings, and the target in front of me. 

I hold the head of the first one squeezing in my hand like a fruit, but he doesn't die and attacks with his tentacles trying to penetrate my scales, so I open my hand and use my strength to force my way down tearing his body to shreds. 

I feel something holding my tail, but before trying to pull me back, I lifted my tail along with the attacker and hit the ground hard before using my tail blades to shred his body. 

My holy power being used only to strengthen my body, not knowing how long we'll be here it would be unwise to use energy-consuming attacks since I can't drink their blood. 

"Attack!!!" (I) 

My Familiars throw themselves into combat with everything, I spread my wings giving an upward thrust before solidifying the space above into a platform that together throwing me to the side spinning making my tail and claws cut everything in the way. 

From their bodies not a single drop of blood comes out, only sparks of red and purple energy, I feel this energy trying to attach itself to me only to be repelled by my Authority and Holy Power. 

"< Hand of the Holy Tyrant >" (I) 

I use my Holy Aura to solidify a 1 kilometer long hand that smashes the ground below leaving an imprint on the ground, the red and pink sparks become a strong beam of Energy that tries to hit me. 

I try to dodge, but the attack bends in mid-air to squeeze me, I feel the attack making my body rigid, but I resisted enough with just one burned arm, I can feel the corruption being expelled from my body by my Authority. 

But even wounded I still had 5 big Octopus Men coming towards me even bigger than the one I made in strips. 

"Come at me!!!" (I)
