Chapter 318: Thor Violently Beats Odin's Manifestation, Heretic Demon Image Seal
The speaker was named Sid.
He had once been a high official of the Walude Kingdom and was also Ram, the Manifestation of Thunder, but due to differing ideals, and after discovering that King Barnabas fundamentally did not value human life,
he chose to leave the Walude Kingdom, adventure alone across the continent, to fulfill his so-called dream: to let every person die with dignity, and to constantly rescue those Gifted Ones treated as slaves.
"Sid, Sid big brother, we, we should hurry up!" A man standing beside Sid, carrying a large suitcase, asked fearfully.
"Sorry, Guz! You wait here for me a moment, I must go confirm something. What exactly does Barnabas's lot want to do? And who is that person fighting him?" Sid said, turning his back and leaving the scene without looking back, rushing toward the battlefield's center.
He needed to confirm some things: Odin's Manifestation, King Barnabas of the Walude Kingdom, possessed unimaginable mighty power, even said to be the strongest summoner user.
And the Gifted One who could wield thunder power and fight him—his strength was imaginable, but Sid thought the opponent might not defeat Barnabas, so he had to rescue this suspected strongest thunder Gifted One.
"Wait, Sid big brother!"
On another part of the battlefield, Luode casually threw the big wave girl, the Wind Garuda, onto the ground; the opponent had already fallen unconscious from the illusion of the Samsara Writing Wheel Eye.
Manifestations in this world possessed extremely strong combat power, each not inferior to the Nine-Tails of the Ninja World.
But in other aspects, they were quite ordinary. Put bluntly, they merely relied on some power; they themselves were still mortal-level life forms.
Meanwhile, the battle between Thor Thor and Odin's Manifestation Barnabas was about to become much more intense, Thor's Hammer and the Iron-Cutting Blade clashing wildly.
"Iron-Cutting Invincible!" Barnabas, incarnated as a giant several dozen meters tall, raised his great sword and swung out a blade hundreds of meters long, directly slicing through the entire mountain range.
But such an attack could not hit Thor Thor; wielding Thor's Hammer, Thor Thor quickly approached Barnabas, then threw Thor's Hammer, directly striking his opponent's face.
He struck the giant giant riding a warhorse unawares; the huge knight nearly fell from his horse.
"Idiot! Don't think I haven't fought big guys before." Thor Thor snorted coldly and said.
"Odin Battle Method!" Barnabas manifested Odin, this time directly abandoning the summon beast's huge size, instead transforming into the first stage, clad in a full set of knight armor, manifesting the Iron-Cutting Blade to fight Thor.
"Do not insult my father's name, you fool; any ability you use has nothing to do with Asgard, nothing to do with Odin." Thor Thor, furious beyond measure, flung his Thor's Hammer, instantly blasting Barnabas away.
At this moment, due to anger, Thor Thor's eyes flashed with thunder power; at this very moment, the thunder power in his bloodline was awakening.
"Damn! You bastard, are you not a Gifted One? What monster are you exactly?" Barnabas coughed a thread of blood, speechless, opening his mouth to say.
Summon beasts have two states: one is attaching part of the summon beast's power to the body, forming a combat stance; the other is full transformation.
After transforming into a summon beast, one indeed gains great strength, but this guy's speed is also quite agile. In full form, one cannot touch him at all, and this guy can also fly, so my aerial advantage is gone.
But unfortunately, he miscalculated one thing: Thor Thor's combat power is very strong, and his body is not comparable to that of a mortal.
Even with summon beast power added, Odin's Manifestation, in close-quarters combat, is absolutely no match for the Asgard berserker.
Thor possesses rich combat experience; after just a few rounds, Barnabas was completely suppressed, his face continuously greeted by Thor Thor's fists and Thor's Hammer.
This Thor Thor seems to harbor enormous hatred toward himself; for unknown reasons, each of his attacks targets his own head.
Barnabas, as the sole king of the Walude Kingdom, has reigned for hundreds of years; with the help of a certain god, he obtained long life.
On the entire continent, he can be said to be the strongest human, having never encountered a worthy opponent.
But facing Thor Thor, at this moment he felt a hint of helplessness.
When transformed into a giant riding a warhorse, he could not touch his opponent at all, while the opponent's summoned powerful lightning, and the thrown hammer, could still inflict heavy blows on him.
Transforming into human form, using part of Odin's power, was simply not enough for Thor Thor to beat.
"I am Thor Thor, I am the son of the God King Odin, I am the Crown Prince of Asgard." Thor Thor stepped on Barnabas's face with one foot, placing Thor's Hammer on his opponent's chest.
Thor's Hammer placed on the body—its feeling is imaginable; at this moment, Barnabas felt as if the entire world were pressing down on him, clearly just a small hammer, yet it rendered him unable to move at all.
After confirming the enemy could not move, Thor Thor came before Barnabas, waving his fists, continuously striking his face vertically.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Blood flowed out like it didn't cost money.
"Do not use Odin's name again! Do not insult my father again! Do not insult me."
"Cough cough! I fucking, basically can't understand what you're saying." Barnabas revealed a bitter smile.
Feeling the endless fists falling on his face with a hint of helplessness, so why do you hate me so much? Is it just because I call myself Odin? This guy's fists are really heavy! At this moment, Barnabas's consciousness began to blur, even his entire eye socket filled with blood.
"Hey hey hey, I say if you keep hitting him, he'll really be beaten to death by you." A man's voice sounded behind Thor Thor, simultaneously a thread of thunder explosion sound rang out.
The comer was precisely the former general under Barnabas, the Thunder Manifestation Ram's vessel, Sid.
This blond muscular man actually defeated Odin's Manifestation.
Truly immensely powerful thunder power; this thunder power, stronger than my own Thunder Manifestation, is there a mistake?
Am I not called Thunder Manifestation Ram? Then where did this Thor Thor come from?
The opponent should not be a Manifestation; could it be that Gifted Ones truly possess the power to defeat Manifestations? And moreover, they defeated the strongest among Manifestations, Barnabas.
"What are you? You can also control thunder power?" Thor Thor wiped the bloodstain from his forehead, opening his mouth to ask.
At this moment, Thor Thor's hands were both bloody, from just violently beating a certain king stained with it, a certain pitiful Odin Manifestation king, now beaten into inhuman shape.
"I am the Manifestation of the Thunder Summon Beast Ram, I am Sid!" This guy seems very resentful toward those who call themselves gods. So I'd better not say I am the Manifestation of Thunder Ram, otherwise I have a premonition that this blond muscular man will beat me up.
"Hmph! None of your business; he insulted my father Odin!"
"Your father is Odin! Hey hey! This joke is not funny at all! Odin is merely a summon beast; Odin's inheritors are many."
"The fact is just so, only you cannot understand it." Luode appeared before the two via a spark teleportation gate, opening his mouth to say.
This Thunder Manifestation, among all summon beasts, aside from the protagonist, is the only relatively normal guy, and he was also the first to discover the Mother Crystal, causing the appearance of the Black Death Zone on this continent.
Since we must change all fates, then let's start with you!
"Things seem to be getting more and more troublesome, what are you?"
"Let me simply introduce myself: I am entrusted by a powerful being to come save your world.
Your world is being drained by a powerful evil god of the entire life planet's energy, and what is extracted is exactly those five huge Mother Crystals." Luode said.
"So that's it, this matches what I thought; I also suspect it's because of the five Mother Crystals that the Black Death Zone appeared.
These years I've also been researching; as long as we destroy the five Mother Crystals, we should be able to save our world." Sid said.
No wonder, clearly not a summon beast owner, yet possessing power to defeat Manifestations, turns out I am not of this world.
What the other party said aligns with my years of research; the culprit behind this world's Black Death Zone is indeed the Mother Crystal.
"No no! Destroying the five Mother Crystals planet, the extracted life energy won't recover; we must return to the planet all the ether energy absorbed by the culprit over these years." Luode said.
If it were that simple, I would have gone and destroyed the five mother crystals one by one long ago; to me, it's nothing at all.
"This powerful being, if you can truly save our world and defeat whatever evil god you mentioned, just give the orders—I, this old bones, should still be able to bear the burden," Sid said.
"Now the Earth Manifestation Titan, the Wind Manifestation Garuda, the Odin Manifestation, and you, the Thunder Manifestation, are all here. Next, we will go bring the Ice Manifestation and the Fire Manifestation here," Luode said.
During the recent battle, Luode also dispatched the Earth Titan Manifestation and Miss Azure Dragon to rescue the manifestation of the Ice God Shiva from the Iron Kingdom's hands.
Soon after, Miss Azure Dragon and the Earth Manifestation Titan returned together, bringing a man and a woman; this unconscious man and woman are precisely the male and female protagonists of this work—the manifestations of the Fire Ifrit and the Ice God Shiva.
Throughout the entire battle from start to finish, Luode kept his Observation Haki fully active, wanting to see whether the evil god Ultima would appear, but unfortunately, even after the Odin Manifestation was defeated in the end, he never showed up to save the day.
No matter—I'll destroy a few mother crystals, return their power to the planet, and then see if you come out or not.
Moreover, the perfect flesh you've painstakingly cultivated for hundreds of thousands of years is now in my hands.
After returning to the camp of the Dalmescia Republic, Luode summoned all the manifestations and began explaining the full story of what happened.
Of course, the Odin Manifestation, the Wind Manifestation, and the Titan Manifestation are currently in a sealed state.
"How could this be? The five mother crystals are actually the source of chaos?"
"I, I actually am Ifrit—I am the killer of Joshua—how is this possible?" Clive obviously could not accept all this.
"Don't be surprised—you are Ifrit, you are that evil god who secretly cultivated a perfect flesh for hundreds of thousands of years, and your brother, the Phoenix Manifestation, was not killed either; back then he was rescued by someone, and I have already sent people to find him—he will be brought back soon," Luode said.
Just now, Luode had already dispatched Miss Azure Dragon and Thor to search for the Phoenix Manifestation, believing news will come soon.
"Lord Luode, just tell us directly how to save our world! Other matters we can discuss later," said Sid, the Thunder Manifestation.
The young man and his childhood sweetheart reunited, learning that his brother was not dead—indeed very moving—but now is not the time to express emotions.
"First, we must destroy the five mother crystals, but before that, we must return all their energy to the planet.
Second, I will reclaim the power of all summoned beasts, for their power is that of the evil god.
Especially you, Clive—the Ifrit within you is the original form of that evil god and its kin."
"If you draw out the summoned beasts, will we die?" Sid asked.
"No, quite the opposite—I will also cure your petrification disease; I suspect many parts of your body have already turned to stone?"
I have life energy—you wish to die, but it will be difficult.
"Then this is truly good news for me—let me go first! Draw out the Ram within me," Sid said.
Luode nodded, led the crowd to an open area, and then summoned the Outer Path Magic Image.
This Outer Path Magic Image, Luode slightly modified it, and now it can also draw out other powers from their hosts and temporarily seal them within his own body.
"You may feel a bit uncomfortable shortly, but don't panic—it's fine." After saying this, Luode stepped onto the head of the Outer Path Magic Image and then performed the Nine Seals of the Illusory Dragon.
A massive energy chain appeared and instantly entered Sid's body, the Thunder Manifestation.
Soon, the energy within his body was drawn out—belonging to the summoned beast—and was instantly absorbed by the Outer Path Magic Image.
At the same time, Luode mobilized some life force, restoring his body to peak condition and curing his petrification disease.
"Truly unbelievable! My petrification disease is cured, and the Thunder Summoned Beast Ram has also left me." (End of Chapter)
