Chapter 158: Hagek Kesi kills the named magic beast with one punch, the whole city is shocked

Blood Tooth Arena.

The silver-white giant wolf bared its fangs, its left eye empty, pierced by a hideous crack across its entire wolf face, appearing cruel and ferocious; its left front paw was slightly lame, dragging a long claw mark on the sand as it walked.

This was an elderly Ice Wolf.

Ice Wolves were the overlord magic beasts of the Northern Region; although they were not the most powerful individuals among the Northern Region's magic beasts, they were rare pack magic beasts. When dozens of Ice Wolves hunted collectively with clear division of labor, even the largest Ice Plain Bear would have to drink hatred under their sharp claws and bites.

At the same time, they were also the symbol of the Dean family, and Ice Wolf Knights were their family's exclusive profession.

Hiss!

Upon seeing the ferocious one-eyed Ice Wolf on the field, everyone was so frightened that they held their breath.

And because of the name above its head, many people recognized its identity and began to discuss it.

"Ice Demon Wolf Fingers; I heard it was the former wolf king of the largest Ice Wolf pack in the Northern Region. Because it was old and challenged by the new wolf king and driven out of the pack, it lived by eating people. It is said that all the people in a village were eaten by it!"

"Truly terrifying. In the end, it was the eldest son of the Northern Region Lord, 'Mad Wolf' Kane Dean, who brought the Frost Tooth Knights to capture it. I thought it had already been executed; I didn't expect it to be sent to the arena."

"Tsk, tsk, being able to capture the Ice Demon Wolf, this 'Mad Wolf' probably already has the combat power of the peak Crescent Moon Rank. He is only twenty-five years old; it seems the Northern Region really has successors!"

Ate an entire village?!

With Hagek Kesi's superhuman physique, he could naturally hear the discussions of the people in the audience behind him.

At this moment, the fighting spirit in his bright golden eyes gradually dissipated, replaced by cold murderous intent.

He clenched his fists tightly, and strands of golden flame clouds overflowed from his massive body, setting off his well-defined bronze muscles to look as dazzling as gold.

After he was promoted to the Crescent Moon Rank, to show respect for him, Saimen canceled his obligation to wear the magic-suppressing collar.

Awoo!

Seemingly sensing the murderous intent of the human in front of it, the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers immediately raised its head to the sky and let out a shrill wolf howl.

This wolf howl seemed to contain magic, making Hagek Kesi feel a slight dizziness, while the spectators in the stands had already covered their ears with painful expressions, and some even fainted in their seats.

Swish!

Fortunately, a blood-red transparent barrier appeared in time, covering the entire field, so that the biggest accident since the establishment of the arena did not occur.

"That is an ability only possessed by the Ice Wolf King—Death Howl. I didn't expect it to still retain this ability after being expelled," someone knowledgeable sighed.

"If it weren't for the magic left by Lord Saimen, I'm afraid we would all be unconscious by now," someone said with lingering fear.

"Hagek Kesi, kill this beast!" More spectators roared angrily.

Most of them were of noble status and had spent a lot of money to watch the arena, but they were almost made deaf by a beast; how could they not be angry about this?

Tap, tap, tap!

And taking advantage of Hagek Kesi's dizziness, the Ice Demon Wolf had already transformed into an afterimage, rushing toward the other party at a terrifying speed.

Clang, clang!

Accompanied by a metallic impact sound, the Ice Demon Wolf swung its sharp claws, leaving several claw marks on Hagek Kesi's chest in an instant.

Just as it was waiting with interest for the other party to have his chest opened and belly ripped, preparing to taste the delicious internal organs of this big human, it suddenly discovered that its sharp claws, which could easily tear through human armor, had only left two shallow white marks on the chest of the human in front of it!

Is this thing... really human?

How is it harder than the fur of an Ice Plain Bear!

Even for the old wolf king who had led the pack through countless hunts, at this moment, a thick shock appeared on its wolf face in a human-like manner.

"The hardness of the body has become stronger again!"

And Hagek Kesi, who had cleared his dizziness, looked at the white marks on his chest and thought silently in his heart.

After he was promoted to the variant profession of Hundred-Death Fighter, one of the abilities he obtained was the Hundred-Death Body.

Hundred-Death Body: Having survived tenaciously after experiencing hundreds of death crises, you have developed a resistance to death; every time you are injured, your body will develop resistance to that type of injury.

And in the arena, fighting against various ferocious magic beasts, he received the most claw and bite injuries, so under the influence of the Hundred-Death Body, the hardness of his body was constantly strengthened.

Until now, Hagek Kesi even suspected that even refined iron armor, which was worth a villa in the city center, might not be as hard as his skin was now.

"You who like to eat people, I didn't expect there would be a day when you would chip your claws on someone, right?"

Looking at the astonished Ice Demon Wolf in front of him, Hagek Kesi said coldly.

Boom!

He stepped on the ground violently with his right foot, and his massive body immediately erupted with a swift speed inconsistent with his size, rushing toward the Demon Wolf.

That giant fist, wrapped in bright golden magic, smashed toward the Demon Wolf's lower back like a battering ram.

Bang, bang, bang!

On the arena, inside the blood-red barrier, one gold and one blue stream of light intertwined at a speed that almost blinded people, and the impact sound, which sounded like thousands of troops neighing, made everyone shout and scream excitedly.

"Hagek Kesi, I love you!"

"In a few months, I want you to lie on my newly bought five-meter big bed and hold me!"

"Oh, God above, if I could kiss Hagek Kesi's muscles, even if I went to hell, I would be willing!"

Watching this scene, many of Hagek Kesi's female fans began to go crazy, among whom the vampire girl was one of the most fanatical female fans.

Boom!

After another fierce confrontation, Hagek Kesi slowly retreated and opened up distance from the Ice Demon Wolf.

Looking at the ice needles stuck into his skin on the back of his hand, his brows tightened.

At this moment, the thick silver-white fur on the Demon Wolf's body had stood up one by one and was covered by countless frost ice, just like an armor full of sharp thorns, which not only perfectly resisted his attacks but could also cause counter-damage.

And the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers, looking at the blood seeping from the back of Hagek Kesi's hand, a trace of mockery flashed in its human-like, deep blue wolf pupils.

Even if it was expelled, it was still a wolf king!

If it weren't for the human who captured it earlier not playing by the rules and bringing a group of people to surround it and exhaust its magic, it really might not have been sent here.

"Let's use it to test another ability that I haven't used since being promoted to a Hundred-Death Fighter."

Looking at the mockery in the Demon Wolf's eyes, Hagek Kesi's expression turned cold, and he made a decision silently.

He had wanted to keep it as a trump card for when he led the slaves to riot in the future, but now it seemed that his hot temper really couldn't bear it!

"Hoo." Hagek Kesi took a deep breath.

Muscle Strengthening.

Berserk.

Giantization.

Three complementary abilities acted on Hagek Kesi's body at the same time.

Crack, crack.

The sound of bones bursting exploded one after another, just like the sound of firecrackers at a New Year festival.

At the same time, the knotted muscle fibers all over his body also began to grow wildly like vines.

The entire body seemed to be pulled up by an invisible giant hand—three meters, three point five meters... until it became a giant over four meters tall before it stopped.

And seeing this human suddenly become taller than the Ice Plain Bear King, the mockery in the Ice Demon Wolf's eyes was quickly replaced by fear.

After all, in the world of magic beasts, size largely determines combat power.

However, this was not over yet!

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, surging bright golden magic gushed out, rendering Hagek Kesi's giant, majestic body as dazzling as a golden sculpture.

Under the anticipation of countless people, under the attention of everyone, Hagek Kesi slowly raised his right fist.

At this moment, all the magic in his body was gathered and compressed on his right fist, to the point that it even formed a small magic vortex.

Hiss!

Seeing this scene, the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers instinctively felt a hair-raising sense of crisis.

It was as if every aging organ in its body was reminding it: Run!

Tap, tap, tap.

Without any hesitation, the Demon Wolf, which had been hungry for several days, decisively gave up the big meal in front of it and instead tucked its tail and ran wildly toward the passage it had come from.

Arriving with great momentum, fleeing in a panic when returning.

It was just too late...

"Air Shock," Hagek Kesi muttered in his heart, and then he used every bit of strength in his massive body to swing his right fist with all his might.

Boom!

Accompanied by a thunderous roar that almost made people deaf, the golden giant fist stopped in mid-air as if it had hit a transparent wall.

Crack, crack, crack.

Before people could react, a series of crisp glass-breaking sounds came from below, as if the air had cracked open.

Boom—!!!

The next moment, a visible shockwave exploded like ripples on the waves.

The sand beneath his feet collapsed layer by layer like fragile ice, and spiderweb-like cracks spread wildly.

Rubble and mud were thrown into the air, and then crushed into dust in the violent air waves, rushing into the distance together.

Wherever the air waves passed, the surface collapsed and bulged, as terrifying as a natural disaster of a ground dragon rolling.

Realizing that something was wrong, the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers turned its head to look.

Immediately after, before it could even howl, its body burst open the moment it touched the shockwave—the upright ice-thorn fur was torn apart like thin paper, the hard wolf bones were broken and shattered layer by layer under the overwhelming force, and the muscles and internal organs were ground into blood mist and scattered with ice dregs.

In just an instant, the ferocious magic wolf that had eaten all the living people in a village was left with only a puddle of blurry meat paste, stickily smeared on the spiderweb-cracked ground, still emitting wisps of heat.

The air waves gradually dissipated, and the sand and dust slowly settled.

Hagek Kesi, whose magic was exhausted, silently straightened up again; his fist was steaming with white mist, and directly in front of his feet was a rift valley extending nearly a hundred meters long.

The power of one strike was terrifying!

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, and everyone stared blankly at the golden giant on the field, as heroic as a god.

On the huge arena, it was so quiet that one could hear a needle drop, until people gradually came to their senses...

"Hagek Kesi!"

"Hagek Kesi!"

People's cheers resounded through the clouds as if they were going to flip the entire arena; even the citizens in the outer area of the Slave Capital could hear the deafening cheers.

"Molten Gold Titan!"

I don't know who shouted this title first, but it soon spread throughout the arena.

The two words "Molten Gold" were taken from the True Dragon Golden Fire Vargalon, the strongest military force in Sossia, and "Titan" was a type of humanoid creature said to be as powerful as a True Dragon in the Age of Gods, famous for its towering size.

The title of Molten Gold Titan was undoubtedly worthy of Hagek Kesi, and even if scrutinized, it could be considered somewhat offensive to royal power.

But the people who had fallen into fanaticism because of the shocking scene just now obviously ignored this point.

And Latise, who was mixed in this crowd of fanatics, could finally no longer suppress the love gushing from her heart; wrapped in a blood-red torrent of magic, she jumped up from her seat.

She actually jumped over the protective wall about ten meters high from the ground, jumped onto the arena floor, and rushed toward Hagek Kesi regardless of everything.

In mid-air, Saimen Kelai, who had flown over in a hurry after hearing his subordinates report that the Ice Demon Wolf's Death Howl had caused the audience to faint, was currently staring blankly at the long rift valley on the ground.

"This strike is probably at the level of an all-out strike by an ordinary Crescent Moon Rank."

After reaching this conclusion, even Lord Saimen, who was known as the Impaler Lord and respected by the whole country, could not help but show a trace of astonishment on his handsome face, which looked ageless.

Because as a Radiant Moon Rank, he knew deeply that the higher the rank, the more geometrically the difficulty of fighting across ranks would skyrocket.

Many top geniuses could manage to fight the Crescent Moon Rank at the Morning Star Rank, but being able to exert the combat power of the Crescent Moon Rank at the Crescent Moon Rank... you couldn't find a few even if you flipped through the history books!

"If he is promoted to the Radiant Moon Rank, wouldn't even I not be his opponent?"

The moment this thought emerged in his mind, Saimen broke out in a cold sweat; he deeply realized the terrifying potential in Hagek Kesi.

How hateful, such a hero, actually cannot belong to my command!

If he had his all-out help, perhaps in less than twenty years, I could realize the long-cherished wish of Kelai's restoration.

What, what on earth must I do to make him submit to me?

Just as he was thinking hard, he suddenly discovered a familiar pretty figure wrapped in blood-red magic, jumping down from the stands and rushing toward Hagek Kesi...

"Could it be?" The Impaler Lord felt a trace of anticipation and joy in his heart.

On the field.

Hagek Kesi frowned and looked at the rift valley in front of him, sighing heavily.

"I am still too weak," he sighed deeply.

If the crowd in the stands who were fanatically cheering for the Golden Titan heard this, they would probably be shocked.

After all, having just been promoted to the Crescent Moon Rank for not long, he had killed a named magic beast into meat paste with one punch; this great feat would immediately spread throughout the country, and perhaps even His Majesty the King, who was high and mighty, would hear of it.

However, Hagek Kesi knew deeply what a talented warrior his opponent was; he even suspected that in this world, only His Highness could surpass that person in talent, and apart from that, any genius would pale in comparison to that person's radiance.

In the Starfire Hall, where one would not be injured or die, he had once asked that person to swing his sword with all his might, and then he saw...

That was a brilliant sword strike that drowned everything like the light of the sun, impossible to describe in words.

Even the Air Shock he could only release after draining all the magic in his body was far from one-tenth of its power.

I am indeed still too weak; I must work twice as hard!

Hagek Kesi clenched his fists silently, and just then, the corner of his eye caught a glimpse of a small figure wrapped in blood-red magic rushing toward him.

He originally thought it was a new opponent, but after sensing the other party's rank, he silently loosened his fists again.

Morning Star Rank, heh; even if he stood still and let the other party hit him, leaving a white mark would be considered the other party's talent being outstanding.
