Azure Dragon and Black Tortoise both needed to exert all their strength to maintain the formation, leaving Maiev as the only one able to attack.But she couldn’t threaten these Divine powerhouses at all.
Buzz!
At that mont, the spatial energy rippled, and Johnnie appeared, holding a massive shield in his hand.
"Kid, where’s the chanical Titan?" a middle-aged man stared coldly at Johnnie, demanding an answer.
Powerful Fire-Elent laws surged around him; he was a fire-type Divine.
"Dead," Johnnie replied flatly, his gaze cold as he looked at the group. "You’re up next."
"What?" The group looked at him, shocked and suspicious.
They knew just how powerful the chanical Titan had been.Without its help, it would be tough to threaten the city walls.
"Hmph, arrogant brat! Let’s see what you’ve got!" the fire-type Divine shouted angrily, striking first.A torrent of Fire-Elental law surged as he launched his attack.
Johnnie’s face grew serious. He didn’t dare to be careless as he raised the shield and smashed it down with all his strength.
After all, this was Skye’s weapon—an ancient artifact, a super-divine weapon.He figured it should be able to block that guy’s attack.
Still, Johnnie wasn’t entirely confident.
Boom!
A deafening crash rang out. The shield slamd down, flas scattered, and a terrifying damage number floated up.
-999999999999
[Ding, you have slain the Fla Warlord. All four basic attributes 10,000. Reputation 1,000,000.]
[Your level has increased to stage 5, level 10. You can no longer gain experience—please advance your class as soon as possible.]
[God-killing power triggered. Your stats permanently increase by 10%.]
Suddenly, several prompt ssages popped up. Johnnie stood there, stunned, shocked, unable to believe what had just happened.
A mighty Divine, killed by a single blow from a shield.
He knew Skye’s weapon was powerful—but this was a defensive weapon.Wasn’t its power just a bit too insane?
It wasn’t just Johnnie. The others around him were frozen too, staring at the scene in disbelief.
Buzz!
Douglas was the first to react. He imdiately summoned the Demon-Refining Pot and sucked the Fla Warlord’s Divine Soul into it.
"Hmph, looking for death!" Johnnie roared furiously, locking onto Douglas as he charged forward, swinging the shield.
He’d already figured it out—ancient artifacts are nearly impossible to bind, and they always drop upon death.
Even if soone managed to bind one, there was still a chance it would drop if they died.
Taking down Douglas could net him both the Demon-Refining Pot and the Celestial Mirror.
"Damn it!" Douglas’ expression changed. Terror flashed in his eyes as he summoned the Celestial Mirror.Spatial energy surged and he vanished on the spot.
"Damn, you sure know how to run!" Johnnie cursed.The Celestial Mirror’s spatial teleportation was just too freaky. It wasn’t affected by combat, and it could cover huge distances. There was no way for him to chase.
"Looks like it’s your turn," he said, not letting up. His eyes flashed as he locked onto the nearest target—a woman in purple, the Saintly Lady of the Nalorin Family.
Whoosh!
A fierce wind howled as the shield ca crashing down.
"Kid, how dare you!" The Saintly Lady of the Nalorin Family was terrified.She swung her long-sword, purple sword light flashing.It seed as if the very power of heaven and earth was being summoned, carrying terrifying might as she slashed at Johnnie.
But Johnnie showed no fear at all.He held the Skye shield in his hand, confident that he could block this woman’s attack.
Boom!
A violent crash echoed out.Johnnie was completely unhard, and another terrifying damage number flickered.
-999999999999
Ten trillion damage.
Johnnie could sense this wasn’t even the shield’s full power.It was just that this was the strongest force he could unleash.
But this ti, there was no system notification.
"What’s going on? She’s not dead?" Johnnie frowned deeply.Ten trillion damage. No Half-God expert could possibly have that much health now.
Crack!
A shattering sound rang out.A jade amulet in front of him broke apart.The Saintly Lady of the Nalorin Family reappeared, face pale, stumbling back in panic, staring at Johnnie in terror and shock.
"Skyward Guard! That’s a Skye weapon!"She had actually recognized the shield.
"So, your identity really isn’t simple." Johnnie frowned, gripping the shield as he charged at the Saintly Lady again.
She hadn’t died just now—probably because of that jade amulet.
Such life-saving items were extrely rare.Johnnie didn’t believe she had another like it.
"Human, you’re lucky this ti! We’ll et again!"The Saintly Lady of the Nalorin Family didn’t dare to take any chances.Her figure turned into a streak of purple light, vanishing over the horizon in an instant.
She fled?
Johnnie was speechless.He turned his gaze to the other two Divine powerhouses.
God of Storms and God of Trickery—both their true Divine forms.
The two exchanged a glance.Before Johnnie could make a move, they didn’t hesitate.They turned and ran.
"Ran away again?" Johnnie muttered, speechless.The shield’s attack was powerful, but he simply couldn’t catch up to Divines.
He could still use the shield one more ti, so he didn’t dare to be reckless.If they realized that, things could turn ugly.
Still, it wasn’t a total loss this ti.At least he managed to take down the Fla Warlord.
Unfortunately, the Fla Warlord’s Divine Soul had been taken by Douglas.If he’d been able to refine it, his strength would definitely have increased a lot.
Johnnie checked the loot that had dropped.
A divine essence, a cultivation manual, and a fiery red crystal.
Johnnie examined them with curiosity.
[Fire-Control: Can be cultivated by those with Fire-Elental Gift]
It turned out to be a Fire-Control manual.
Johnnie was speechless.He had changed class to Five Elents Grand Mage, so he already had Fire-Control.This manual was useless for him.
But he could give it to Crysic.
Crysic was also a dual-classer now—Blazing Mage and Sword Immortal.
Her Blazing Mage class also focused on fire-based magic.As long as she obtained the Fire-Elental Gift, she could cultivate it.
As for getting a Fire-Elental Gift, it wasn’t difficult for Johnnie.He still had a few Fire-Spirit Pearls on hand.He had already comprehended Fire-Elent laws and couldn’t refine the Fire-Spirit Pearls to advance further.
Johnnie then looked at the fiery red crystal.
[Fire-Elent Law Stone: Refining it can increase Fire-Elent Law by 1%]
It could directly enhance his Fire-Elent Law!
Johnnie was thrilled.He had already gained 1% Fire-Elent law comprehension, but had no idea how to improve it—he never expected the Fire-Elent Law Stone could increase it directly.
It was a pity this item was so rare; only killing a Divine would drop one.Obviously, it was a god-tier item.
Johnnie wasn’t in a hurry to refine it.He stashed it away casually, double-checked for anything left behind, and continued fighting.
Boom, boom...
Even now, the deafening noise below the city walls continued.The chanical Race army hadn’t retreated.
But the major Divines had already fled, and with the Four Saints guarding the great formation, these Demon race forces, troubleso as they were, could no longer threaten the Chinese City.
As long as nothing unexpected happened, the Montemar Empire would surely be established.
In the distance, the players watching the battle were still reeling from shock at how Johnnie had crushed a Divine.Their hearts couldn’t calm down for a long ti.
"He smashed a Divine to death with a shield! Are you seriously telling there’s no cheating here?" soone shouted angrily.
"Exactly! I protest. How could there be such an overpowered weapon? And the equipnt ranking doesn’t even have a shield anywhere on it. Apocalypse Group owes us an explanation!"
"That’s right. If not, we’re quitting, or at least let examine that shield myself!"
"Bro, I see what you’re after—I heard you all the way from Kathmandu. I’m a knight; if anyone’s inspecting that shield, it’s !"
"A weapon this powerful is obviously breaking the ga balance. It needs to be destroyed, and honestly, Johnnie should be permabanned too!"
...
The crowd kept arguing.It was obvious to everyone that the shield in Johnnie’s hands was extraordinary.
Most people still saw Horizon as just a regular ga.
[You killed a chanical Battle cha. chanical Perception 1]
[Your chanical Perception has reached 30,000. chanical talent 1%]
Prompt ssages kept popping up as Johnnie slaughtered the chanical Race like crazy.
His chanical talent had risen to 3%, making his connection with the chanical Race even stronger.
But it was still not very clear.Johnnie didn’t know what chanical talent was good for, except for refining energy cores.
Maybe when his chanical talent increased again, he’d have an answer.
Without Divine powerhouses or the likes of chanical Titan, these chanical Battle chas could no longer threaten the city walls.
Maiev, Azure Dragon, and the others joined the battle, easily suppressing the chanical army.
"Retreat!"
Suddenly, a cold chanical voice rang out.The chanical army, which had just been charging fearlessly, retreated like a receding tide.
Johnnie gave chase for a while, then stopped.
The area around the city was a ss, and the city walls were battered and broken.
If the Four Saints’ guardian formation hadn’t been there, he probably wouldn’t have survived the Beast Wave at all.
Buzz...
At that mont, three beams of light flashed, enveloping the Chinese City, Sky Blue City, and Tetrasaint City.
The three cities reflected each other’s brilliance, suddenly undergoing trendous changes.The Chinese City, in particular, was instantly promoted to a level 2 city.
[Ding! You have successfully repelled the Beast Wave assault. Montemar Empire has been established. Reward: 1,000,000 reputation, 10,000 free attribute points, and the title of King of the Montemar Empire.]
[Montemar Empire King: Special title, cannot be transferred. If the Montemar Empire is destroyed, it will disappear. All attributes increased by 30%. Gain the faith of Montemar Empire residents. Appoint Montemar Empire classes. Issue quests.]
Prompt ssages appeared, followed by a barrage of system announcents.
[Announcent: Montemar Empire has successfully resisted the Beast Wave attack. All participating players are rewarded with 1,000 free attribute points and one piece of white-tier equipnt appropriate to their class.]
[Joining Montemar Empire increases your attributes by 5%.]
...
[Announcent: A new class has been unlocked—The Four Sacred Guardians. Requirents: Join Montemar Empire, obtain Demon Clan bloodline, and receive the blessings of the Four Sacred Beasts.]
...
The system announcents echoed throughout the land.Everyone stared at the newly restored city walls, frozen for a long ti before erupting in thunderous cheers.
"We did it!"
"These rewards are insane!"
"I feel like this Beast Wave was less stressful than when we founded the Chinese City last ti."
"It’s all thanks to Johnnie, or we never would’ve made it."
"Hooray! Long live Johnnie!"
No one knew who started it, but soon everyone was chanting, completely swept up in their joy.
The players watching from afar were thrilled as well.
They had received rewards for helping repel the Beast Wave, though their rewards weren’t as generous as the soldiers of the Montemar Empire—just 500 free attribute points and a piece of white gear.
Even so, the players were delighted.They hadn’t contributed much, and most of them stopped fighting after dying once.
For them, these rewards were basically free.
