My avatar is becoming the final boss

Chapter 418 The Icelandic Battlefield "East": The Battle of Zeus (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

The time remains 00:10 on September 1st.

Iceland, east of the Hofsjökull glacier.

On the southern battlefield, as everyone was exchanging fire with the mythical wonder holder "World Tree" - Shang Xiaochi, two groups of people were simultaneously arriving on this side of the Hofs Glacier.

All around are extinct volcanoes rising from the permafrost, covered in snow and ice from the summit to the waist, a vast expanse of white.

The world was cold and desolate, with only the wind and snow howling, and the aurora borealis across the night sky illuminating the fish swimming beneath the frozen lake.

At this moment, the little Nian beast, dressed in a black hoodie, was sitting on the back of the blue dragon.

The blue dragon spread its giant wings and soared through the night sky like a giant bat, slowly and swiftly approaching from afar.

Meanwhile, the Zodiac Team followed behind the Dragon Shadow. They walked on the vast glacier, and with each step, the ground beneath their feet trembled, and the ice surface cracked slightly.

Lin Xingshi had already arrived, ahead of them. Zhuge Hui and Zhong Wujiu were standing beside her.

"Why is there still no sign of that black cocoon?" Zhuge Hui asked, waving his fan.

“I don’t know yet,” Lin Xingshi shook his head, “but we’ll meet up with Xiao Nian first, and then we’ll go find the Gu family. Hei Yong should be over there, so there’s no need to rush.”

Zhong Wujiu thought for a moment, then asked in a low voice, "Captain, if we find the person who killed Jiuya, what are your plans to do with him?"

Lin Xingshi was silent for a moment, then said, "Catch him, and then catch the White Raven Brigade members. We'll settle the score together."

At that moment, they heard a long, drawn-out dragon roar in the sky. The three of them turned their heads, raised their eyes to look at the night sky, and saw a blue dragon slowly descending.

The little Nian beast tilted its head slightly and briefly met the gaze of Lin Xingshi from the dragon's back.

He suddenly stretched out his finger, gently peeled open the space, pulled out a crack, and took out the "Demon Crown" stored in the independent space.

The little beast held the Demon Crown in its palm, the sensation of which felt like a thousand filthy souls embracing and kissing it. Any demon that approached the Demon Crown would feel uncomfortable.

But he knew that since he had already come this far and was very close to the Salvation Society's base, he could encounter the enemy at any moment, so he had to be prepared to fight.

"Whoosh-!"

The Totoro Demon slowly folded its wings, swooped down onto the glacier, and stopped not far in front of the three Lake Hunters, kicking up a huge cloud of snow.

At this moment, the demons of the Zodiac Team saw the three from Lake Hunt, which naturally caused a stir.

"The Lake Hunters..." Mad Bull Demon frowned, his face grim, and said, "They've arrived."

"Lord Little Year Beast said we should come here and fight those people from the Lake Hunt to the death, but I don't think so." The Rat Demon stroked his beard.

"So what do you think it wants to do?" the monkey demon said, taking a bite of a peach.

The Rat Demon shook his head.

Not far away, the little Nian beast, carrying the Demon Crown, stood up from the dragon's back and slowly walked onto the ice, approaching the three lake hunters step by step.

Neither Zhuge Hui nor Zhong Wujiu had ever seen the Little Nian Beast in human form before, and their eyes were filled with a sense of novelty.

"This is truly a rare sight. The Great King of the Nian Beast is so reluctant to transform into human form, but the son of the Nian Beast is so open about it," Zhuge Hui said while fanning himself with a folding fan.

"You've arrived," Lin Xingshi said with a smile, arms crossed.

"It's a little late," the little beast said calmly. "The masked man looks alright. I thought he might be missing an arm or a leg or something." As he spoke, he glanced at Zhong Wujiu.

Zhong Wujiu pondered for a moment and said, "I heard it was you who saved me, thank you..."

The little Nian beast shrugged, indicating it didn't care.

"What are your plans next?" Lin Xingshi asked curiously, a slight smile playing on his lips.

"The Salvation Society's headquarters is north of the Hofs Glacier, not to the east. It only takes about ten minutes to get there from here... Meanwhile, the war has already begun in the south. The Third Prince and the White Raven Brigade are fighting the World Tree to the death."

At this point, the little Nian beast paused: "We need to hurry."

"The World Tree..." Lin Xingshi thought for a moment, then asked, "A mythical wonder?"

The little Nian beast nodded.

He took a deep breath, about to say to Lin Xingshi, "We can talk about this later; we don't have much time left."

But just then, a rumble of thunder suddenly came from the sky.

He was slightly taken aback, and then he and the others looked up. At that moment, a boy in a hospital gown with lightning wrapped around his body was hovering under the blue aurora in the night sky.

His pupils were empty, and his expression was as numb as a puppet in a puppet show.

— “Wu Qingjie”.

In an instant, the little monster recognized the identity of the boy in the hospital gown.

In that fleeting second, Wu Qingjie suddenly raised his hand and reached for his heart. Immediately afterward, a layer of blood-red light shone from his chest.

The dazzling red surged like a tide, illuminating almost the entire glacier.

"BOOM—!!!" A deafening clap of thunder struck, awakening the slumbering glacier.

And then, suddenly, a giant shadow, its entire body crackling with lightning, appeared in the night sky.

He wore a helmet made of cast steel, and his eyes, shrouded in shadow, now shone with a light as bright as the midnight sun. His armor reflected shimmering, dancing lightning.

A pair of wings, resembling those of a giant bird, unfurled from behind, rustling and parting the rain.

At this moment, illuminated by lightning, the sacred and inviolable figure in the night sky appeared even more aloof and brutal, surpassing even the dazzling aurora borealis of Iceland.

He bowed his head and looked down at the earth, like a monarch looking down at his world.

"Zeus."

In the silent and pale world, the little Nian beast called out its name.

The next instant, it plummeted like lightning, a dazzling, blazing white covering the entire glacier.

No one knew what had happened, and no one could react in time. The next second, a deafening roar, loud enough to shatter eardrums, resounded across the entire icy plain.

"boom--!!!"

In an instant, the glacier shattered completely.

Beneath the shattered ice, raging waves surged upwards.

At that moment, the frozen seawater, like a wild beast awakened, swept outwards in an overwhelming torrent.

When the commotion subsided, everyone looked up and saw Zeus with his head down, hovering in mid-air, flapping his wings.

At this moment, He held the heads of the four demons—the porcupine demon, the rabbit demon, the monkey demon, and the rainbow horse demon—in His two paws. Slowly, He raised His head and stuffed the four demon heads into His mouth, the blood staining His steel teeth red.

This behavior was almost devoid of any intelligence; despite possessing a body as majestic as a god, it now resembled a wild beast feeding.

Savage, brutal... The gurgling swallowing sounds mingled with the thunderous roar echoing over Iceland.

At this very moment, the Mad Bull Demon, paralyzed by the blazing white arcs of electricity, stood in the center of the lake, his face filled with shock.

The icy lake beneath it had been stained red with the blood of its companions.

Zeus slowly raised his head, staring directly into the eyes of the mad bull demon. Then, he extended his claws, pierced through the bull demon's chest, and pulled out its heart. He raised his head and put the beating, bloody entrails into his mouth.

Blood splattered from the tips of Zeus's claws, staining his jaw red, and his throat gurgled and throbbed.

Crack... Crack... On the desolate ice plain, only the ferocious sound of Zeus gnawing and swallowing flesh with his steel-like teeth could be heard.

This brutal commotion clearly reached everyone's ears, and together with the blood-soaked scene, it continuously assaulted their internal organs.

"My God, my God, no way..." the Rat Demon murmured in shock as he fled.

But in the next instant, Zeus casually raised his claw, and the rat was pierced by a bolt of lightning that shot towards it, its body turning into a cloud of blood mist and dissipating.

At this moment, one of the three from the lake finally realized what was happening.

"Run, Old Lion, Wujiu!" Zhuge Hui put away his folding fan and roared hoarsely at this moment. He knew he was wrong and had underestimated the strength of the Salvation Society. From the beginning, they were no match for them... They shouldn't have come to Iceland!
At that moment, Lin Xingshi and Zhong Wujiu were filled with shock and surprise, but they quickly came to their senses.

The next second, the rising crimson demonic flames drew their attention.

They glanced to the side and saw that in this deathly silent world, the little Nian beast's hands suddenly rubbed together to form a huge ball of light.

Outside the ball of light, surging flames created invisible ripples in space.

[Spatial Demonic Flame (Branch End) - Combines spatial power with demonic flames to create a fireball powerful enough to devour space. Anyone hit by the fireball will be sent to another dimension, where they will be permanently or temporarily lost.]

[Note: This ability can only be used by the Little Nian Beast in its human form.]

The little beast shattered the ice field, running forward through the flying ice dust, while throwing the ball of light in its hand, which shot straight towards Zeus.

Unexpectedly, the flaming dumpling struck Zeus, who was eating, and his figure was instantly engulfed in flames. Space trembled, as if a crack had been baked open by the flames, and countless ripples spread out, covering his figure.

In the next instant, Zeus's figure vanished.

It was as if it had been completely swallowed up by that layer of spatial ripples.

"It succeeded...?" The little Nian beast frowned slightly, wondering in astonishment.

But this thought only lasted for a moment.

"Bang——!!!"

The sky suddenly shattered, as if glass had been smashed open with a mallet. Thousands of colorless cracks opened, and then a figure with an entirely white body slowly pried open one of the cracks, revealing a hideous head.

Zeus emerged from the chaotic alternate dimension, slowly raising his piercing eyes to stare intently at the face of the little Nian beast.

"He can even tear space apart?" The little Nian beast was taken aback.

"Boom——!"

Another deafening roar resounded as it transformed into a beam of blazing white lightning, shattering the ice along its path and sending the electric arcs hurling up the ice fragments and lake water.

The little beast's pupils suddenly contracted and narrowed, reflecting the beam of lightning rushing towards it—at this moment, it was still in human form, and its body was not as agile as its beast form, so it naturally had no room to retaliate.

But at that very moment, the Totoro Demon beside it suddenly lunged forward, roaring as it pounced, blocking the Little Nian Beast's path.

"Pfft——!"

First, the ice cracked, then the water splashed wildly, and finally a beam of lightning shot right into my eyes.

Then, the little Nian beast saw a claw, a claw crackling with electricity, piercing through the blue dragon's body. Amidst the swirling crimson blood, this scene came into his view.

"Roar—!!" The blue dragon roared to the sky as lightning raged within its body, ravaging every organ.

At this moment, Zhong Wujiu put on the Nuo mask and transformed into the ink-wash-like "Xiongbo". Amidst the roar of an angry tiger, he shot towards Zeus, unleashing a burst of ink-colored cross-shaped sword light.
Almost simultaneously, Lin Xingshi, accompanied by a fiery red lion shadow, raised his hand and lunged forward to seize something.

Zhuge Hui waved his folding fan, and the ice surface at the bottom of Zeus suddenly cracked open. A raging water dragon roared and rose up, transforming into a huge cage that trapped it inside.

The three attacked Zeus, who was standing nearby, from the left, the right, and the left.

But in the next instant, Zeus suddenly retracted his pair of wings of light, covered his body with them, and formed a huge cocoon in mid-air.

The water dragon cascaded down, biting hard against the surface of the cocoon that pulsated with lightning; the dark tiger claws tore a slit in the surface of the wings, and the fiery red lion shadow smashed a corner of the wings.

"Bang—!!!" The ice surface collapsed in an instant.

From that enormous cocoon, lightning surged and roared like a tidal wave, sweeping outwards and blasting all three of them dozens of meters away.

At this moment, the little beast's limbs drooped down, its nails extended forward to become sharp claws and teeth, its whole body was covered with a purplish-red fur, and its pupils were raised high like a wild beast.

"The devil is coming."

The moment it transformed into the Nian beast, Xiao Nian let out a low, angry roar.

As soon as the words fell, its pupils were covered with a deep crimson.

Its entire body was engulfed in ferocious demonic flames, and its lion-like snout protruded slightly forward like a blade.

Then, the little Nian beast put on the Demon Crown. The moment it put on the Demon Crown, the demonic flames that enveloped its body suddenly disappeared, and the deep red in its eyes also instantly disappeared.

Instead, there was only emptiness, followed by a sinister, dark purple that suddenly emerged from it. Then, a white and purple exoskeleton popped out from its body with a "click-clack" sound, covering its entire body, including its cheeks.

Zeus flapped his wings, revealing once again his body, which was wrapped in lightning.

The little beast transformed into a pillar of flame, passing over the dying Totoro Demon, and in an instant, it shot forward like a blooming poppy, its purplish-red flames reaching their peak, spewing out from its nostrils and claws.

It joined Zeus's two claws. Raging flames and violent lightning swept outwards, forming a surging energy field that spread outwards.

"Bang——!!!"

One hundred times.

Thousand times.

10,000 times.

They clashed fiercely within the energy field, a battle between monsters and gods.

After the two objects collided several times, the ice surface was completely broken.

Just two seconds later, the entire glacier was gone, leaving only a surging lake flowing under the night sky.

A patch of crimson and pure white expanded across the night sky, dazzling and brilliant like fireworks. Arcs of electricity crackled, lightning roared, flames raged wildly, the atmosphere shattered, and snow-capped mountains on the icy plains collapsed one after another.

The exoskeleton on the Little Year Beast's body shattered, yet it fought with increasing ferocity, the flames engulfing its body burning ever more fiercely.

Suddenly, a burst of electromagnetic field erupted from Zeus's body, blasting the little beast hundreds of meters away.

Its body tumbled and broke through the ice, plunging into the icy lake water.

But at that moment, a meteorite suddenly fell from the sky, carrying the atmosphere like a giant fireball.

Zeus slowly raised his eyes and looked down, then stretched out his fingertip and unleashed a bolt of lightning, instantly crushing the meteorite into countless fragments. But behind the meteorite, a shower of fire rained down—all of this was Zhuge Hui's trick.

Just as He was about to spread His wings and enclose Himself in a cocoon once more, the Little Nian Beast suddenly burst forth from beneath the lake behind Zeus, bringing with it a wave of heat. It closed in and seized Zeus's two pairs of wings from behind, tightly suppressing Him.

Zeus whirled around, his claws flashing like lightning as he pierced the little beast's chest, shattering its heart.

"Roar--!!!"

The little beast spat out a mouthful of blood, tearing a gruesome gash in Zeus's wings with its fiery claws. Dark blood streamed down the wings as Zeus roared, his howl echoing across the snow-covered plains.

At that moment, the little Nian beast seemed to know that even gods bleed, and excitedly grinned.

At the same time, the fire rain summoned by Zhuge Hui fell from the sky, pouring down on Zeus's body. The demonic flames on the little beast absorbed the fire rain, and its wounds visibly healed a little, but its heart was gone;

Zeus's body was burned with a black and red scorch mark, and his lightning body was no longer pure, his blood-stained wings flashing on and off.

"Little New Year!" Lin Xingshi shouted.

The next second, Zeus's body suddenly transformed into a beam of light.

He broke free from the little beast's grasp, soared into the sky, and vanished into the aurora borealis on the horizon. Immediately afterward, the sky over Iceland was suddenly shrouded in an endless layer of dark clouds.

"Boom, boom—!"

From within the dark clouds, countless bolts of lightning crashed down, erratically striking every corner of this icy plain.

It was as if a divine punishment had descended, equally ravaging every living being.

Lin Xingshi was suddenly startled. She transformed into a fiery red lion and intended to come to the aid of the two, but was blocked by a bolt of lightning that fell from the sky. She had no choice but to raise her glass lion head to defend herself.

"Boom, boom—!"

The lightning continued to fall violently, and the glacier was instantly riddled with holes. Thousands of tons of frozen lake water surged out from the bottom of the lake, as if a flood was about to break out.

"Oh my god, oh my god, if you ask me, I shouldn't have come to Iceland!"

Zhuge Hui waved his folding fan, summoning a gust of wind. He rode the wind and danced on the glacier, but ultimately could not escape the densely falling lightning pillars.

He suddenly looked up, his face and pupils illuminated by the electric light.

"Old man—!"

Seeing Zhuge Hui about to be struck by lightning, Zhong Wujiu suddenly paused.

In an instant, he shattered the ice beneath his feet and shot forward like a cannonball. Then, he put on a Nuo mask and transformed into "Qiongqi," with ink thorns covering his entire body.

He leaped up from the icy plain and stood above Zhuge Hui's head, shielding him from the falling lightning.

But the next second, suddenly, a beam of the brightest, most dazzling white light crashed down from the dim sky.

It slammed straight down on Zhong Wujiu's head.

In an instant, all the ink spikes on Zhong Wujiu's body broke off. Immediately afterward, a claw pierced through his chest, and Zeus lifted him to the ground.

Zeus dragged Zhong Wujiu's corpse, raised his head, and looked at the stunned Zhuge Hui.

In the dim world, the two looked into each other's eyes.

A flash of lightning streaked across the sky, illuminating Zeus's hideous face.

"You...you...you unreasonable wretch, come on...you're a god, come and kill me!" Zhuge Hui's face was ferocious, his body trembling whether from fear or anger, his clear eyes filled with boundless fury.

Zeus flashed in front of Zhuge Hui.

With a single swipe of its claw, Zhuge Hui's body was cleaved in two at the waist. Before his blood and internal organs could even spurt out, they were consumed by the layer of lightning on Zeus's claw.

Zhuge Hui stared in astonishment at this scene, his remaining upper body slowly collapsing onto the ice.

In that instant, huge wooden stakes suddenly rose from the bottom of the glacier, and the stakes and the lake water turned upwards together.

Zeus turned his head and looked around at this incredible scene. Suddenly, he saw a magnificent, fiery red lion shadow stepping on a wooden stake, rushing towards him from a distance, roaring and crashing into him, sending him flying dozens of meters away.

And there, the little Nian beast had been waiting for a long time.

In the last second before the demonic possession ended, it roared and raised its claws, creating a ball of light formed from gathered demonic flames. It then rushed towards Zeus's back and completely shoved the demonic ball into Zeus's back.

"Boom—!!!" A deafening roar resounded throughout the world. Zeus's armor was shattered by the exploding demonic flames. Immediately afterwards, a gruesome hole appeared in his body, and his blood was burned away.

Clutching the hole in his abdomen, he plunged into the bottom of a distant glacier and into the lake, where flickering arcs of electricity illuminated the entire expanse of water.

At the same time, the little Nian beast, having lost its heart, slowly collapsed.

Its demonic flames had all died down, and it lay lifeless on the ice, its demonic crown falling into the lake beside it.

"Old Hui, Wu Jiu, Xiao Nian—!"

Lin Xingshi charged wildly across the icy plains, hurtling toward them.

But at that moment, a bolt of lightning suddenly shot out from the bottom of the glacier, catching Lin Xingshi completely off guard.

Zeus broke through the ice and emerged from the lake. He then stabbed at her back with a claw. She turned around and threw a punch, accompanied by a fiery red lion shadow, but Zeus blocked it with his claw.

He nodded slightly, and lightning burst forth from his claws, shattering a corner of the lion's shadow. Lin Xingshi's body flew backward for more than ten meters, but her lion paws barely touched the air as she shot towards Zeus once more.

"Bam—!"

At that moment, Zeus waved his wings of light, unleashing a fierce curtain of lightning. It swept across the lion's shadow, carving a furrow into the neck and face of the lion-like creature.

Her figure shot forward once again, but she stepped on wooden stakes, traversing among countless stakes. However, Zeus's pupils always captured the lion's shadow's trajectory, and the next moment it raised its paw.

Lightning shot out from his fingertips, heading straight for the lion's shadow.

But in that instant, Lin Xingshi activated the power of the Azure Lotus Demon, stepping on a phantom of an azure lotus, his figure shooting diagonally downwards, narrowly missing the bolt of lightning.

Then, her hand was enveloped in a crimson flame, and with a roar, she punched Zeus in the side.

"Roar--!!"

Seeing this, Zeus raised his wings of light to block it, and his body shifted to the side more than ten meters away, shattering all the ice along the way.

His wings of light also began to shatter. Then, he suddenly swung his right arm, and a flash of lightning on the tip of his claw sent the lion shadow flying.

Lin Xingshi's abdomen shuddered violently, her internal organs shattered by the immense force. Her pupils contracted slightly, and she flew backward, landing beside the little Nian beast.

The icy plains were silent; there was no one left to resist.

At this moment, only a small blue cat was still struggling on the glacier. It spat out a mouthful of blood, moved its paws, and slowly crawled towards the little Nian beast in the distance.

As if disdaining to kill such a lowly creature, Zeus casually flapped his wings, creating a gust of wind that blew the little blue cat away.

The rumbling thunder was still playing.

The aurora borealis was obscured, and the glacier was pitch black, with only the occasional flash of lightning illuminating the colossal shadow of a god slowly approaching them.

Zeus walked step by step, his metal joints clanging, and his claws slowly covered with lightning.

Every time it swept past a wooden stake standing on the ice, a bolt of lightning would fall from the sky, destroying the stake completely.

"Lin Xingshi... can she still open her eyes?"

Lin Xingshi slowly opened her eyes and saw the little Nian beast gently reaching out its paws towards her. She could no longer speak, as half of her cheek and the vocal cords of her neck had been completely eroded by lightning.

"I'm about to die..." the little beast said hoarsely.

Lin Xingshi stared at the little Nian beast, a tear slowly streaming down her face. She wanted to say something, but no sound came out.

"But...I don't want you to die," the little beast suddenly whispered.

As it spoke, it stretched out its tiny paw and placed it in Lin Xingshi's palm. "I believe you. Do you believe me?"

Lin Xingshi was taken aback.

At that moment, her Sky Chaser suddenly transformed into a fiery red rope, tightly binding the two's hands together.

The world fell silent in an instant.

A moment later, a pillar of crimson flame shot into the sky, piercing through the clouds and filling the heavens. At that moment, even the aurora borealis on the horizon was distorted into the shape of a lion.

Zeus suddenly stopped, slowly raised his head, and stared at the scene with his pupils as bright as the midnight sun.

The little Nian beast had vanished, but Lin Xingshi stumbled and scrambled to her feet from the ice. Her eyes were filled with tears and resentment, and a purplish-red lion shadow slowly rose behind her.

That phantom was equally angry and ferocious.

“Again,” she said.

At that moment, her voice seemed to overlap with another voice.

In the next instant, Zeus and Lin Xingshi simultaneously burst forth.

On this stormy day, they shattered the glacier into a vast sea. Millions of tons of ice broke apart and turned into millions of tons of surging lake water, but they could not extinguish the purplish-red lion shadow that enveloped Lin Xingshi. She transformed into a bewitching pillar of flame, colliding with Zeus a thousand times, even a hundred times, under the night sky.

They clashed time and again, from the sky to the earth and to the bottom of the ocean.

With each collision, the seawater is burned away by flames and lightning, and the aurora in the sky dims a little.

"What if I lose?" Lin Xingshi suddenly asked.

"I won't let you lose," said the illusory figure.

"He's all a liar."

"It's okay, just think of it this way: at worst, we'll die together."

"Okay."

Lin Xingshi spoke softly, and once again summoned the Wooden Stake Demon. She stepped on the last remaining wooden stake and leaped high into the sky.

At that moment, Zeus transformed into a majestic pillar of light, crashing down from the cloud-covered sky.

The crimson lion, leaping high like a swan, collided with the blazing white lightning bolt that crashed down.

The brightest flame in the world confronts a bolt of lightning.

The two forces, one above and one below, tore apart the atmosphere.

The dark clouds on the horizon were torn apart by the surging energy field, and the aurora once again illuminated the earth.

But the seawater submerged the glacier and also covered up the aurora reflected on it.

At this moment, the whole world was completely silent, shrouded in an unprecedented darkness.

"I'm sorry," Lin Xingshi said silently.

At that moment, the lion's shadow slowly shattered, and the figure of Lin Xingshi flew backward toward the ground, smashing the glacier and falling into the lake with thousands of ice shards.

She was sinking.

sink.

It kept sinking.

In the end, all that remained in my eyes was a blank, unconscious blue.

But then she heard a gentle voice:

"You did very well."

After saying that, the phantom of the little Nian beast faded away. In its place, a dark light flew in from the distant horizon.

Upon closer inspection, you'll find that it's a two-meter-long shark flying in the tide.

It used its head to break through the ice, burrowed into the icy seawater, bit Lin Xingshi's wrist, and dragged her out of the sea.

Yagubalu delivered Lin Xingshi to the ice and then breathed a sigh of relief.

At this very moment, Zeus was hovering in mid-air, flapping his tattered wings of light.

In the world of thunder and rain, not a single piece of His armor remained intact. His lightning-like body was slashed with blood-red marks, and a huge hole was torn in his abdomen.

He lowered his head and silently watched the shark.

Aguru raised his deep blue eyes and met Zeus's gaze.

Zeus didn't rush to attack. He was badly injured, so he simply flapped his wings of light and absorbed the lightning falling from the night sky to replenish his energy.

Suddenly, two more elk came galloping in from afar, pulling a sled, approaching like a blizzard.

Caesar spurred his sled and landed next to the shark, raising his blue eyes to look at Zeus.

“Aguru, we may not be able to beat him,” he said.

Most of his artifact fragments were destroyed in the battle at the World Tree, leaving him with only the Phoenix and the Christmas Sleigh.

“Caesar, keep an eye on her,” Agubaru said calmly. “Zhuge Hui is still alive, and don’t forget that Totoro either… Go and find them, then use the Phoenix to bring them back.”

Caesar hesitated, then said, "But..."

"You don't believe in Shark?"

“I believe you.” Caesar nodded.

"That's good, that's what a good friend of Shark should be like!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Agubaru's body suddenly expanded, transforming into a form five hundred meters tall.

Amidst the roar of collapsing mountains and tsunamis, an enormous shark suddenly soared into the sky, carrying an entire ocean with it, heading towards Zeus in the heavens.

The seawater surged upwards, and the giant shark also struggled upwards.

In that instant, Zeus extended his right hand, and a massive spear of thunder slowly formed from his right claw. Then, he raised the spear of thunder high.

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning descended from the dark clouds, converging at the tip of the spear. Zeus then slowly hurled the spear downwards. The lightning spear tore through the atmosphere, ripped through the rain, and finally pierced the giant shark.

At that moment, the giant shark's dorsal fin gleamed with a dark light. It roared and raised its dorsal fin, as if wielding an extremely black blade, to meet the spear.

"Bang—!!!!"

Ultimately, the two faced off for less than five seconds before the Thunder Spear pierced through the giant shark's dorsal fin and slashed downwards, creating a huge trench in the shark's back.

At that moment, blood gushed forth like a waterfall, staining the seawater surrounding Agubaru's body a deep crimson.

Under the moonlight, it looked as if a red tide had descended.

Aguru's body plummeted straight down, and Zeus also transformed into a bolt of lightning and plummeted down. The seawater became the best conductor, and His lightning ignited all the seawater, scorching every inch of the giant shark's scales.

Immediately afterwards, Zeus used his claws to pierce the giant shark's eye socket and ripped the huge eyeball out by the root.

"Pfft—!" The first eye shattered, and the giant shark's eye socket became a blood-soaked, empty hole.

Agubaru roared, knowing that in this form it could not contend with Zeus. The two were not on the same level in terms of speed; they could not even touch each other and could only serve as targets.

In that instant, it chose to shrink its body to a size of two meters.

Then, it retaliated, shooting towards the towering divine figure like a rocket, its teeth covered in a dark light as it viciously bit into Zeus's head.

"Abaguru—!"

Caesar, who was supporting Zhuge Hui in the distance, raised his head, his pupils trembling as he growled.

In that instant, Zeus raised his claws, aiming them at Aguru's open mouth. A bolt of lightning, as intense as the midnight sun, burst forth from his fingertips.

It thought this strike would be enough to shatter Agubaru's teeth, but it did not expect that the "Dark Fang" had the power to absorb elements. So when the lightning struck the black teeth, they were instantly obliterated.

Seizing this fleeting opportunity, Agubaru fiercely bit through Zeus's claws and then seized Zeus's right arm.

Then, it twisted its body violently, tilted its head, and tore off Zeus's entire arm.

Then, Ababaru suddenly rolled over, and its blade-like tail burst into flames, as if the red dragon Welsh had swept out its tail.

"Dragon Tail!"

Agubaru roared and thrust the flaming sword at its tail into Zeus's chest.

At the same time, Zeus plunged his other, still intact claw, into its body. In an instant, a surge of lightning swept out, burning Agubaru's body from top to bottom.

In just a moment, only the last part of Agubaru's body remained.

But it was that burning tail that viciously pierced Zeus's chest, tearing open the outer shell of the lightning bolt and destroying half of Zeus's heart.

Dark blood spilled from Zeus's chest, but was instantly burned away by flickering lightning, and the raging dragon flames engulfed Zeus's entire body.

Cesare was stunned by what he saw in the sky.

“Agu…Balu?” His lips moved, his eyes glazed over as he watched the broken tail slowly fall and land on the ice.

After a while, he slowly knelt on the ground, raindrops hitting his face.

Zeus was already weakened after the battle between the Lion King and the Nian Beast, not to mention that he was injured again at this moment.

Clutching his damaged heart, he plummeted onto the ice like a bird with broken wings.

"Oh!"

Zeus's body crashed into an iceberg, then fell down, finally landing on the ice. The flowing lake water slowly extinguished the dragon flames on his body.

He briefly fell silent.

Caesar stared blankly down, tears slowly streaming from the corners of his eyes, his empty eyes fixed on the section of his tail that had fallen onto the ice.

"Didn't you say you'd travel with me and eat all the delicious food in the world?" he mumbled. "We still have so much food we haven't eaten yet, I can't possibly finish it all by myself..."

He was met with silence; rain pattered on the ice, and a flash of thunder briefly illuminated the dark sky.

After a while, a shadow with dim lightning crackling around its body suddenly struggled to its feet. It raised its head and staggered towards Caesar step by step.

Zeus knew that once he defeated the last enemy, he would be free.

If He were to absorb the electric light again, His injuries would heal quickly.

So He raised His left hand, which formed a lightning sword that flickered in and out of focus, and held it high.

The next second, suddenly, a dark shadow descended from the sky, and countless black ribbons, like snakes, stretched out and fiercely wrapped around Zeus's only remaining left arm.

He tugged at the black ribbon, stopping Zeus from striking Caesar's head with the thunderbolt.

Zeus, who already had only a sliver of strength left, stood frozen in place, a trembling and surprised flash of lightning suddenly streaking across his daylight-like pupils.

Just as He was about to turn around and wave His wings of light to drive away the uninvited guests behind Him, He found that His wings of light were also entangled. At this moment, He was so weak that He had no way to resist!

In an instant, the black pupa raised a restraint strap high, and silver blades emerged from the edge of the strap, then began to spin at high speed like a chainsaw.

He cleanly and decisively sliced ​​the restraints across Zeus's neck.

"Whoosh—!" Black blood splattered everywhere as Zeus's head flew off, splitting in two from his body.

"Phew... thankfully I made it in time, looks like I snagged a bargain."

The black pupa murmured softly, flicked its right hand, and quickly wrapped Zeus's headless body with restraints, turning him into a black mummy.

He then used the restraint belt blade to cut open the headless mummy's chest.

The chainsaw viciously pierced through, shredding the still-beating heart. Then, it swiftly sliced ​​Zeus's head and body to pieces, along with his wings.

"Boom—!" A deafening clap of thunder suddenly echoed across the sky.

The black pupa raised its head and looked up at the sky, facing the rain.

The fierce lightning completely disappeared at that moment, along with the dark clouds in the sky.

Black Chrysalis lowered her eyes and walked step by step toward Caesar. She looked at Zhuge Hui, who was paralyzed on one side, and then at Lin Xingshi, who was seriously injured.

“Zhuge Hui, he can still be saved… Your phoenix can save many people.” Black Chrysalis said softly, using the restraints to grab the little blue Totoro on the ground and bring it over. “They are now yours, Caesar.”

Caesar remained silent for a long, long time, his lowered bangs obscuring his eyes.

After a moment, he slowly stopped sobbing, stood up, and took the dying Totoro Demon from Black Chrysalis's arms.

He crushed the fragments of the "Phoenix" legend, and the firebird descended from the sky, dropping a fiery feather that landed on Zhuge Hui's mutilated upper body and Lin Xingshi's body.

It was visibly clear that both of their injuries were healing.

Seeing that Caesar had decided to stay and treat the wounded, Black Chrysalis was relieved.

"Mr. Black Chrysalis, can you do me a favor?" Caesar asked as he sent the Totoro Demon into the rain of fire.

Black Chrysalis put one hand on her hip and tilted her head.

“Yes,” he said, “but we need to hurry, I have something urgent to attend to.”

“Aguru’s wish is… to rescue his friends from the Salvation.” Caesar paused. “But I’m too weak, I can’t do it. Can you help me?”

"I will."

“Okay, I believe you,” Caesar said hoarsely.

"Good boy, you can cry later. First, take them to a place where there are people, understand?"

Black Chrysalis reached out and ruffled Caesar's white hair.

Caesar nodded silently, his empty pupils reflecting the ice.

"Well... I have other things to do."

After saying that, Black Chrysalis turned around, stretched out her restraints to grab an iceberg in the distance, and swung forward like a bird, heading towards the north of the Hofs Glacier.

He knew... that was the final battlefield.
