Chapter 552: 552
Three contained entities.
Each fulfilling their role.
The System tagged Toguâs Hell Raiser attribute as .
It was also the attribute that Han Dong valued the most.
Given his weak physical state, if he could borrow Toguâs undying body, it would compensate for Han Dongâs biggest weakness.
If he could form a pact with Duo Zeya, why couldnât he do so with Togu?
With this in mind, after attempting to use Toguâs Hell Iron Chains, Han Dong had been secretly trying to fuse with Togu⊠once successful, Han Dong would acquire the Power of Hell.
This was also one of the reasons why Han Dong did not refuse Captain Marlonâs invitation, as it could possibly allow him to tread the path of Hell.
Due to the presence of Captain Alex, under such pressure of death.
Han Dongâs state was at its best, reaching a level of fusion that he had never touched before during training, fusing with Togu at a higher level of compatibility.
His pupils transformed into eyes of ash.
Underneath the skin, slowly moving iron chains could be seen.
He gained Toguâs defense and power⊠simultaneously, the Raven Staff underwent a change because of this.
With the entwining of Hell Iron Chains and the infusion of Hell Essence.
The âSource of the Lighthouse,â the core of the staff, is a material that can change its properties (refer to material details).
The original âBlack Magic Traitâ core changed to âHell Traitâ.
The staff instantly morphed into a Hell Baton suited for close combat.
The instant switch between ranged and close combat modes,
Prelaid restraining methods,
After carrying out puzzling actions that no one could comprehend, he instantly completed this sudden transformation.
All the people present widened their eyes.
They couldnât believe what was happening before their eyes, couldnât believe that Death God could be calculated against, couldnât believe that this baton was about to hit Death Godâs headâŠ
Did he get his way? Many people didnât think so, since the gap between the two was too great.
âNicholas⊠can you survive? Your series of linked tactics really irritated Alex, who is usually wary.â
Marlon was already at the front of the audience stand, hands on the railing, staring at this unexpected situation.
Similarly, Marlon was also ready to move.
In case Alex doesnât know his limits and accidentally kills Han Dong.
At the same time,
Mr. Black White from the Plague Knights also stepped forward, followed closely by the Great Plague Chief.
The moment this baton swung down, the rescue will commence.
âŠ
From Han Dongâs perspective,
Although he was very clear that there was a huge gap between him and Captain Alex, no matter how he planned or caught him by surprise, victory was impossible.
The purpose of this third attack was only one, to inflict as much damage as possible to Death God, even superficial skin wounds would be fine.
He swung the baton.
And it successfully hit Death Godâs skull.
But the moment it hit, Death God turned into ashes and dissipated.
âDissipationâ
For Han Dong, who had stepped into the true Death field, it couldnât be more familiar.
Once, with the help of the Crow God, Han Dong had also entered the âDeath Dissipationâ state during the battle against the Count⊠the Countâs any form of attacks could hardly kill Han Dong.
But the current situation was somewhat different.
When this baton went down,
Death God seemed like a fragile shell, turned into death ashes, and dispersed in the air.
In the blink of an eye,
Han Dong was no longer in the arena.
[World of the Dead]
A desolate grey land full of scars,
The bodies of the dismembered individuals are embedded in the gray soil.
The souls of countless deceased converge into a ceaseless soul river in the sky that leads to the end of the world.
Just as Han Dong was immersed in this scene of death,
Death God Alex had already reappeared before him.
âThree moves are over, and youâve just taken one of my blows⊠The semi-finals individual strength tests have all been completed, and your performance has been quite satisfactory.
Being able to be present in the world of the dead signifies that you have entered this domain before.
How did you do it?â
âThe crowsâŠâ
Alex nodded, âYou must have been threatened by death during your Breaking the Breed period. Your close relationship with the Crowman would have led your consciousness to meet the Crow God in advance.â
âCaptain Alex, do you know him?â
âAll are âvisitorsâ from the world of the dead, of course I have⊠I brought you here for two reasons. One is to see your accomplishment on the death plane, which is indeed impressive as it seems.
The second reason is to see your attitude. Itâs been a long time and you should have made up your mind, right?â
âI have.â
âŠ
At the [Arena of Hercules].
What actually happened on the stage differed somewhat from Han Dongâs subjective perspective.
At the moment when the hell baton swept with brute force,
The Death God broke free from the blood-seal barrier that restrained his movements with a slight shake of his bodyâŠ
Just a single finger.
Yes.
One finger was raised, completely blocking the heavy staff sweeping in from the side.
Han Dong, who was swinging the baton, was momentarily stunned, his gaze blank.
His consciousness seemed to have gone elsewhere.
âAlex is really despicable! To negotiate with such underhanded methods. Heâs definitely privately forcing Nicholas to join his Knight Regiment or heâll kill him.
If Nicholas really chooses the Terminal Knight Regiment, Iâll definitely go live at his house tonight.â
Although Marlon is very angry,
Mr. Black White was quite satisfied, and flew away from the coliseum in the form of a crowâŠ
Mr. Black White doesnât particularly care which Knight Regiment Han Dong eventually chooses.
When Han Dongâs gaze regained its luster,
The Death God had already turned his back and left the stage.
A scorecard was handed to referee Alonso, indicating the end of the most special semi-finals.
With the return of the Death God to his seat,
The entire arena suddenly erupted with intense cheers.
The council members in the VIP stand also analyzed Han Dongâs performance in detailâŠ
Through every detail of the fight, they fully confirmed that throughout the entire fighting process, he didnât use any abilities outside the city, evaluating him as qualified in his corresponding file.
Han Dong, back to normal, limped down from the platform and returned to his team.
The first to greet him was Abeâs strong arm.
âNicholas⊠you are really something.â
âWow! Vice-captain, you are so strong! I couldnât even stand properly in front of the Death God Brigade Captain.â Winry exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with admiration,
Mia said arrogantly, âMy man can surely do it to this level. Whatâs so surprising.â
Of course,
The other graduates in the rest area were also looking at him with surprised eyes, totally unexpected that there was such a person in their grade, and could not help but sighâŠ
After all, the dazzling light emanating from Han Dong would suppress the radiance of the other graduates.
There would surely be one less spot in the top ten.
Dumps quietly came to Han Dong and whispered: âNicholas, this really puts us under a lot of pressure⊠Of course, those underground students hiding in the shadows are feeling even more pressured.â
âLet me rest a little first⊠Whether I can enter the finals is still a question.â
