Of course, they should be only four to five peak fifth form. Phiroth was definitely one of them. The bosses of the Three Departments were also definitely in the peak realm. Also the Director of the Parliament, who might be still alive. In the original history, the old man had been killed by Hellgate underground.
Once he thought of Hellgate, Garen shuddered. Looking at the time, it was about time for Hellgate's birth.
As he was busy battling the Cthulhu King and learning his martial arts, he actually forgot such a big matter. After all, fighting with an elite on the Cthulhu King's level requires complete concentration. Otherwise, once he slipped up, he would be completely put in a tough spot. No matter how many lives he had, the outcome was death.
After eating the soup and meat, Garen sat on one side. He looked towards the Cthulhu King's direction. There were clouds of smoke. It was obvious that he was cooking something. The Cthulhu King was obviously not as laid back as himself.
After searching his body for a moment, then only Garen remembered that his belongings were fully destroyed during his battles over this period of time.
As black clouds gathered below his feet, he slowly ascended higher and higher.
Demon Phoenix and the others below didn't dare to say much. They obediently stood in their positions, cleaning up the mess.
As the people below seemed smaller and smaller, his vision grew wider and wider.
As Garen slowly ascended, he swept his gaze over the grassy plains.
Very quickly, ten kilometers away, smoke from a bonfire was rising.
With a stomp of his feet, the black gas surrounded him and shot out towards the back. It headed in that direction like a meteorite.
On the Cthulhu King's side, there was some slight movement. But in the end, he stopped and didn't take that opportunity to leave.
Garen approached the position of the bonfire. From afar, he could see that on the side of the winding river, three human figures that looked like adventurers stood up and looked towards him as if a great enemy was coming. They already wielded weapons in their hands. Two wild boar totems with white spikes were also being summoned.
The three adventurers, two men, and one woman were in dark brown cotton armor. Their faces look weather-beaten. Evidently, they had been walking on the grassy plains for quite some time.
As Garen approached, then only the three of them saw that within the black gas was actually a young man. Unexpectedly, there was eagerness and warmth glowed in their eyes.
"Strong totem user, do you need any assistance?" Seeing that the other party was a man, the woman out of the three stood up and spoke. Usually, the opposite gender would be easier to get acquainted.
"Do you have a radio?" Since the other party was speaking pure Kovitan language, Garen directly replied with Kovitan language.
"Radio? Yes, yes yes!" The woman asked her companion to take out a white-silver square box. There was even a gold antenna on top. There was a knob to change channels in the middle. Basically, there weren't many differences from Earth's radios.
Garen grabbed it with one hand. A white stream of water instantly grabbed the radio over. It steadily landed on his plan with a clap.
As he was about to throw out a few Rumbs, Garen suddenly remembered that his wallet was totally destroyed in the battles. Suddenly, there was a sense of hesitation in his expression.
"Strong totem user, it is just a radio. Don't take it to heart." The woman looked about twenty years of age. She didn't seem to mingle much with aristocrats. The way she spoke was a little stiff.
"What is this place?" Gaern suddenly asked.
"Er… This is the Blue Jade Plains, between the Ultimate Protection and the hundreds of countries of the North." The woman quickly answered.
"What are you doing here?"
"We were initially hunting down a Four-Ear Fox on the plains. We accidentally got lost…" The girl laughed bitterly.
"In that case, this place is quite close to the Ultimate Protection, Kovitan?"
"Yes, My Lord."
Garen nodded. Suddenly, with a snap of his fingers, a stream of black gas shot out, leaving a black line in the air.
Very quickly, a pitiful shriek came from afar. After a while, a cloud of black gas was returning with a white fox-like creature. The fox had golden eyes and six limbs. As it was struggling non-stop within the gas, it let out sharp shrieks.
"This is your reward." Garen pointed with his finger. The black gas surrounding the small fox descended and landed in front of the three of them. The fox who was initially struggling was pierced in mid-air by the black gas. The black gas entered through one of its ears and exited from the other. The fox's body became numb and stopped moving completely.
"Six-Limb White Fox!! It is actually a Six-Limb White Fox!" The three people couldn't hold back their cries. This fox was obviously worth something.
"With this Six-Limb White Fox, we no longer need to catch a Four-Ear Fox!" "There is hope for father's sickness!"
As the three of them finished reacting and were ready to thank Garen, there was no longer anyone in the air.
As he returned to the camp, Garen landed and placed the radio on the ground. He switched it on and adjusted it to the Daniela channel that he remembered.
Although he was nearer to Kovitan, when he left, Kovitan's news channel still wasn't set up. He could only remember the one from Daniela.
Demon Phoenix and the rest stared at the small, white-silver box curiously. They didn't know what was it for.
"Sheesh….Oaz! Oaz!"
"Fast fast fast! Focus on this side! This side!!" "That is Edney's giant statue, the giant statue is on the move! Looks like the demonstration has reached the government's tolerance limit." There was a flurry of footsteps and a hurried man's voice came from the radio. There were also numerous people shouting in one accord.
"This is Edney's Cassadan City. It is 11:32 in the morning. The procession has already begun to confront the armed government. If things don't turn around, there might be another bloodshed."
Garen blinked his eyes and changed the channel to another news portal from Daniela. So happen, it was interval music.
He steadied the radio and sat on one side to rest as he was listening to the news.
A gentle female announcer was reporting the recent happenings. Most of it was unimportant matters. A mine somewhere collapsed, killing some people. The progress of the international census. The breakthrough in the research of the domestication of mutated creatures.
Demon Phoenix and the rest were abnormally curious. As they were busy doing their tasks, they were eavesdropping on the radio. Although they completely couldn't understand the Daniela language used, it didn't stop them from being curious towards the talking box.
The sky started to brighten up. Until about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the Cthulhu King still didn't show any intention of leaving. Garen decided to go later in the day to test his martial arts. He wanted to understand the recent happenings first.
"....There was a secret gathering among East continents society in the Ye Qin Mountains a few days ago. Many elite societies and associations gathered in the black stone ruins of the giant cathedral to share their knowledge and experience. There was skirmish during the gathering which caused ten severe injuries and fifteen deaths. Among them were the leaders of the Terraflor Society, the Sisley Couple. The cause of the incident is still under investigation."
Garen suddenly opened his eyes. There was a hint of heaviness on his face.
"Sisley...Terraflor Society…"
The voice continued.
"The biggest terrorist organization, the Obscuro Society was declared to be responsible. King Phiroth released a statement where any challenge against peace was a challenge against Daniela. A heavy blow has to be delivered towards the Obscuro Society's rampant activities.
The new continued but Garen no longer wanted to listen. He turned off the radio. Although his heart was heavy, there was also a glimmer of hope in him.
Hellgate….The man that surpassed the limits of the world. Just by thinking how strong he was, it agitated people.
"Must speed up the progress." Garen stood up. His body slowly melted to become a cloud of black gas, which shot out towards the distance.
He covered about ten kilometers in a few breaths.
On the grassy plains, the Cthulhu King in red robes instantly opened his eyes. He gathered a red lightning spear in his hand and threw it over.
Crack.
Lightning flashed and thunder roared. The red lightning collided with the black cloud meteor. With a bang, a circle of transparent ripples diffused out on the ground. As though it was seawater, there were clear ripple lines on the grassy plains.
The dense white clouds in the sky were immediately scattered. A hole was created and golden sunlight shined through the hole, forming an eye-catching, golden beam of light.
Within the black cloud and red lightning, two blurs shot out, a black one and a red one. They collided, becoming a black-red meteor which crashed fiercely towards the ground.
Bang!
A pit was instantly formed on the ground. It was more than a hundred meters wide and more than ten meters deep. Garen's expression didn't change. His arms pierced outwards to his two sides, penetrating two red light beams that were coming towards him.
Battling until now, he no longer had any fixed form. The Ten Thousand Mammoth Battle Skills slowly evolved, removing the unnecessary portions to become more and more refined. He also merged it the bits and pieces of some of the techniques that he invented in this world.
After he penetrated the two light beams, Garen turned to his side, extending his right leg like a whip. The black glow on the tip of his foot could clearly be seen.
In the pit, there was a light crack. A black crescent suddenly lit up, passing by the Cthulhu King's chest, then quickly disappeared.
"You!!" The Cthulhu King stared at Garen as if he was staring at a ghost. He was in complete disbelief.
Although the Black Crescent Leg Knife didn't touch him, traces of black lightning arcs strangely lingered on his chest. The lightning arc waves were abnormally familiar. It was very similar to his Sun-Sealing Demonic Wheel.
Although it didn't cause any damage to him, this attack caused an unconcealable coldness the Cthulhu King's heart. As he looked at the man in front of him, he reflexively thought of that tyrannical man at the Ancestral God Tree. The two of them were so similar. The familiar coldness was rising in the Cthulhu King's heart.
"Light of Ten Thousand Laws!" The Cthulhu King bellowed. He finally used his strongest ability to date.
In the sky, the golden sun turned red in an instant. A red light dot fell out from the center of the sun. It grew faster and faster, bigger and bigger.
From the size of a sesame seed, it grew into the size of a fingernail. Very quickly, it became a giant red light beam that almost covered the whole sky.
There was no sound and no tremor.
The giant light beam of over a hundred meters suddenly descended. Together with the Cthulhu King, it wrapped Garen and submerged the both of them in a terrifying, high-temperature beam.
