Heir to the Kingdom of 1.4 billion people

Chapter 153 Hagoromo's One Punch Kills the Named Monster, Shocking the Entire City (High Quality, You Won't Lose Out If You Don't Read It)
Bloodfang Arena.

The silver-white giant wolf bared its fangs, its left eye empty, a hideous gash piercing its entire face, making it appear ferocious and monstrous. Its left forepaw was somewhat lame, leaving long claw marks on the sand as it walked.

This is an old ice wolf.

Ice wolves are the dominant magical beasts of the North. Although they are not the strongest individual magical beasts in the North, they are rare pack magical beasts. When dozens of ice wolves hunt together and have a clear division of labor, even the largest ice bears will perish under their sharp claws and bites.

They are also symbols of the Dean family, with the Ice Wolf Knight being an exclusive profession within the family.

hiss!
When they saw the ferocious one-eyed ice wolf on the field, everyone was so frightened that they held their breath.

Because of the name on its head, many people recognized its identity and started discussing it.

"Fingers the Ice Demon Wolf, I heard he was the previous wolf king of the largest ice wolf pack in the North. After being challenged and driven out of the pack by the new wolf king due to old age, he survived by eating people. It is said that he ate up the entire population of a village!"

"How terrifying. In the end, it was the eldest son of the Lord of the North, 'Mad Wolf' Kane Dean, who led the Frostfang Knights to capture it. We thought it had been executed, but unexpectedly it was sent to the arena."

"Tsk tsk, to be able to capture the Ice Demon Wolf, this 'Mad Wolf' probably already has the combat strength of the peak of the Crescent Moon rank. He's only twenty-five years old. It seems that the Northern Territory truly has a worthy successor!"

They ate up an entire village?!

With Haggex's superhuman physique, he could naturally hear the conversations of the people in the audience behind him.

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

He clenched his fists, and wisps of golden flames emanated from his massive body, making his well-defined bronze muscles appear as dazzling as gold.

After he was promoted to the Crescent Moon rank, Simon, as a sign of respect, relieved him of the obligation to wear the anti-magic collar.

Hey!
Seemingly sensing the killing intent of the humans before him, the Ice Demon Wolf Finger suddenly looked up and let out a mournful howl.

The wolf's howl seemed to possess a magical power, causing Hagoreks to feel slightly dizzy, while the spectators in the stands covered their ears in pain, and some even fainted in their seats.

Swish!
Fortunately, a blood-red transparent barrier appeared in time, covering the entire arena and preventing the biggest accident in the arena's history.

"That's an ability only the Ice Wolf King possesses—the Howl of Death. I never expected it would retain this ability even after being banished," a knowledgeable person remarked.

"If it weren't for the magic left behind by Sir Simon, we would probably all be unconscious by now," someone said with lingering fear.

"Haggox, kill this beast!" more spectators roared angrily.

Most of them were of noble birth and had paid a lot of money to watch the gladiatorial combat, only to be almost deafened by a beast. How could they not be angry about it?
Tatata!
While Hagoros was stunned, the ice wolf had already transformed into a blur and pounced on its opponent at an extremely terrifying speed.

Clang!

With a metallic clang, the Ice Wolf swung its claws, leaving several claw marks on Hagx's chest in an instant.

Just as it was waiting with great interest for the other party to be dissected and ready to savor the delicious internal organs of this large human, it suddenly discovered that its 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 even human?
It's even stiffer than the fur of a field bear!

Even the old wolf king, who had led the pack through countless hunts, showed a deep sense of astonishment on his wolf face at this moment.

"Your body has become even tougher!"

As Hagoromo awoke from his dizziness, he looked at the white mark on his chest and silently thought to himself.

After he was promoted to the mutant class Death Warrior, one of the abilities he gained was the Body of a Hundred Deaths.

Body of a Hundred Deaths: Having survived hundreds of life-threatening crises, you have developed a resistance to death. After each injury, your body develops resistance to that type of injury.

In the arena, he fought against various ferocious monsters, suffering mostly claw and bite injuries. As a result, under the influence of his body's resilience, his physical toughness continuously increased.

Even now, Haggex even doubts that a suit of fine iron armor worth the equivalent of a villa in the city center might not be as tough as he is now.

"You who enjoy cannibalism, you never thought you'd get your claws scratched, did you?"

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

boom!
He stomped his right foot on the ground, and his massive body immediately unleashed a speed disproportionate to its size as he charged toward the demon wolf.

The giant fist, imbued with radiant golden magic, slammed down on the wolf's lower back like a battering ram.

Bang bang bang!
In the arena, within the blood-red barrier, two streaks of light, one gold and one blue, intertwined at a speed almost blinding to the naked eye. The sound of their collision, like the neighing of a thousand horses, made everyone shout excitedly.

"Haggox, I love you!"

"A few months from now, I want you to lie on my newly bought five-meter-wide bed and hug me!"

"Oh, God above, if I could just kiss Hagoromo's muscle, I'd gladly go to hell!"

Seeing this, many female fans of Hagoromo went crazy, with the vampire girl being one of the most fervent fans.

boom!
After another fierce exchange, Hagoros slowly retreated, creating distance between himself and the Ice Demon Wolf.

Looking at the ice needles piercing his skin on the back of his hand, his brows furrowed tightly.

At this moment, the thick, silvery-white fur on the opposing wolf's body had stood up and was covered by countless frosts, like a suit of armor covered in spikes, which not only perfectly resisted his attack but also caused counter-damage.

As the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers looked at the blood seeping from the back of Hagx's hand, a mocking glint flashed in its dark blue wolf eyes.

Even if it is driven away, it is still the wolf king!

If the human who captured it hadn't been so unethical, leading a group of people to surround it and exhaust its magic power, it might not have ended up here.

"Let's use it to test another ability that we haven't used since becoming a Hundred Death Warrior."

Seeing the mockery in the eyes of the demonic wolf in front of him, Hagoromo's expression turned cold, and he silently made a decision.

He had intended to save it as a trump card for leading a slave revolt in the future, but now it seems that his temper is simply too much to bear!
"Hoo." Hagoromo took a deep breath.

Muscle strengthening.

Go crazy.

Gigantic.

Three complementary abilities work simultaneously on Hagoromo.

Click, click.

The sound of bones cracking rang out one after another, like the sound of firecrackers at a New Year's festival.

At the same time, the bulging muscle fibers all over his body began to grow wildly like vines. His entire body seemed to be being pulled up by an invisible hand—three meters, three and a half meters, until he became a giant over four meters tall before finally stopping.

Upon seeing this human suddenly grow to be even taller than the Icefield Bear King, the mockery in the Ice Demon Wolf's eyes was quickly replaced by fear.

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

But this is not over yet!
With a whoosh, a surge of brilliant golden magic erupted forth, making Hagoromo's giant-like, majestic body shine like a golden sculpture.

Amidst the anticipation of countless people and the watchful eyes of the masses, Haggiks slowly raised his right fist.

At this moment, all the magic power in his body was gathered and compressed into his right fist, so much so that it even formed a small vortex of magic power.

hiss!
Upon seeing this scene, the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers instinctively felt a chilling sense of crisis.

It's as if every aging organ in the body is reminding it, "Run faster!"

Tapping.

Without the slightest hesitation, the ravenous wolf, which had been starving for several days, decisively abandoned the feast in front of it and instead tucked its tail between its legs and ran wildly back to the passage it had come from.

They came in full force, but returned in disarray.

But it was already too late.
"Air tremor," Hagkex murmured to himself, then mustered every ounce of strength in his massive body to swing his right fist with all his might.

boom!
With a deafening roar that nearly deafened people, the golden fist froze in mid-air as if it had hit an invisible wall.

Click click click.

Before people could react, a series of crisp sounds of shattering glass came from below, as if the air itself were cracking.

boom--! ! !
The next moment, a shockwave visible to the naked eye exploded out like ripples on a wave.

The sand beneath my feet cracked layer by layer like fragile ice, with spiderweb-like fissures spreading wildly.

Gravel and soil were thrown into the air, then crushed into dust by the violent air currents and carried away into the distance.

Wherever the shockwave passed, the ground collapsed and bulged, resembling a terrifying natural disaster caused by a rolling earth dragon.

Realizing something was wrong, the Ice Demon Wolf Fingers turned around to look.

Before it could even howl, its body exploded the instant it came into contact with the shockwave—the erect ice spikes on its fur were torn apart like paper, its hard wolf bones snapped and shattered under the immense force, and its muscles and internal organs were crushed into a bloody mist mixed with ice shards that scattered everywhere.

In just a moment, the ferocious wolf that had devoured the entire village was reduced to a blurry mass of flesh, smeared thickly on the spiderweb-like cracked earth, still steaming.

The shockwave gradually dissipated, and the sand and dust slowly settled.

Having exhausted his magic, Hagoromo silently straightened up again, white mist rising from his fists, and directly in front of him was a chasm that stretched for nearly a hundred meters.

The power of one blow is so terrifying!
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and everyone stared blankly at the golden giant on the field, who looked as majestic as a god.

The vast arena was so quiet you could hear a pin drop, until people gradually came to their senses.
"Hercules!"

"Hercules!"

The cheers of the crowd seemed to shake the entire arena, and even the citizens in the outer areas of the slave capital could hear the deafening roar.

"Molten Gold Titan!"

It is unknown who first uttered this title, but it quickly spread throughout the entire arena.

The name "Molten Gold" is taken from Valgalon, the golden fire of the true dragon who is the strongest force in Sosia, while Titans are a kind of humanoid beings that are said to be as powerful as true dragons in the Age of Gods, and are known for their towering size.

The title "Molten Titan" is undoubtedly fitting for Haigox, and upon closer examination, it could even be considered somewhat offensive to royal authority.

People who were caught up in the frenzy because of the shocking scene just now clearly ignored this point.

Meanwhile, amidst the frenzied crowd, Ladis, unable to contain the surging love within her, leaped from her seat, enveloped in a torrent of crimson magic.

He leaped over the protective wall, which was about ten meters above the ground, and onto the arena, charging towards Hagx without regard for anything else.

In mid-air, Simon Clay, who had just heard his subordinates report that the Ice Demon Wolf's death howl had caused the audience to fall into a coma, hurriedly flew over and was now staring blankly at the long rift in the ground.

"This attack is probably already at the level of a full-force attack from an ordinary Crescent Moon Realm cultivator."

Upon reaching this conclusion, even Sir Simon, revered throughout the nation as the Piercer, couldn't help but show a hint of astonishment on his handsome face that belied his age.

As someone at the Radiant Moon rank, he knew that the higher the rank, the more exponentially the difficulty of fighting across ranks would increase.

Many top geniuses can fight against New Moon rank opponents at the Morning Star rank, but there are very few New Moon rank opponents who can unleash the combat power of Crescent Moon rank opponents, even if you search through all the historical records!

"If he were to advance to the Radiant Moon rank, wouldn't even I be no match for him?"

The moment the thought crossed his mind, Simon broke out in a cold sweat, realizing the terrifying potential within Haggix.

It's infuriating that such a hero cannot serve under my command!
If he were to give me his full support, I might be able to realize Clay's long-cherished wish to restore the country in less than twenty years.

What exactly do I need to do to make him submit to me?
Just as he was pondering the sword, he suddenly noticed a familiar figure enveloped in crimson magic leaping down from the stands and rushing towards Hagoromo.
"Could it be?" A sense of anticipation and joy welled up in the heart of the piercing prince.

on the field.

Hagoromo frowned as he looked at the rift valley ahead and sighed deeply.

"I'm still too weak," he sighed deeply.

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

After all, he had only recently reached the Crescent Moon rank, and he had already annihilated a named magical beast into a pulp with a single punch. This feat would immediately spread throughout the country, and perhaps even His Majesty the King would hear about it.

However, Hagoromo knew all too well what a gifted warrior his opponent was, and he even suspected that only His Highness could surpass that man in talent, and that any other genius would pale in comparison to that man's brilliance.

In the Starfire Hall, where there is no injury or death, he had asked that person to swing his sword with all his might, and that's how he saw it.
It was a dazzling sword strike that overwhelmed everything like the rays of the sun, a strike that defied description.

Even though he could only unleash a tremor by draining all his magic power, it was still far less powerful than one-tenth of his.

I'm still too weak, I must work twice as hard!
Hagoromo clenched his fist silently. Just then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a small figure enveloped in crimson magic rushing toward him.

He initially thought it was a new opponent, but after sensing the opponent's rank, he silently loosened his fist.

At the Morning Star level, even if he stood still and let the opponent hit him, leaving a white mark would be considered a sign of exceptional talent.
