Chapter 53: Weren’t You Going to Fight? Why Are You Running?

Crackle! Crackle! Crackle! Boom!

Thunderous Divine Retribution!

Terrifyingly powerful bolts of lightning were unleashed from Max's mouth!

Max's thunderbolts were like Zeus' thunderbolts in myths. They were insanely powerful, and they had instantly blinded the entire cave with a divine radiance!

However, before the divine radiance, the lowly mortals who were below Platinum Rank were immediately erased from existence!

There was no blood, and there was no pain! Everything had happened in an instant.

Without even experiencing an ounce of agony, the Gold Rank soldiers were immediately swallowed up by the Thunderous Divine Retribution and were instantly turned into ashes.

Moreover, as a result of the Thunderous Divine Retribution's power, the lair's walls emitted waves of singed odor. 

However, the power of the Thunderous Divine Retribution was not that simple. After wiping out the humans who were below Platinum Rank, Calsus learned of the true strength of the Thunderous Divine Retribution the hard way.

An ear-piercing buzz resounded within the minds of Felix, Gallio, and Calsus after the initial impact of the skill.

It was as if a stun bomb had exploded right in front of their faces. It had taken them great difficulty to mount any sort of defense against the continuous waves of thunderbolts!

Bzz! Bzz! Crackle!

With only one greatsword to mount his defense, Calsus was on the verge of being blown away by the powerful thunderbolts. He could feel the soil under him rapidly burning away, and once gone, he was certain that he would meet his demise at the hands of the Thunderous Divine Retribution.

At the same time, Calsus also thought to himself, 'Thank God I'm not facing this ability unprotected! I shudder just thinking about what would happen if I were unarmed!' 

At this moment, Calsus had no choice but to bring out his second greatsword behind his back. He layered the second greatsword on top of the first one to form a cross and shouted loudly, "

"Luminous Cross-slash Shield!"

Buzz!

A powerful construct made out of light burst forth from the two greatswords. In an instant, a protective barrier that was as thick as an adult human's arm was formed, safely protecting Calsus within it.

Meanwhile, Gallio and Felix had also used their trump cards to defend themselves.

Gallio gulped down a bottle of dark brown viscous liquid.

Following which, fine black lines began to appear across his body.

At the same time, both of his eyes had turned pure black.

Long black hair began to grow all across his body, and at this moment, Gallio looked no different from a caveman. 

However, this ugly appearance had bestowed Gallio with an incomparably powerful strength! 

He brought both of his arms before him, and while his skin that had taken the brunt of the blow was slightly burnt, the Thunderous Divine Retribution did not pose any real threat to Gallio at all!

On the other hand, Felix was not faring as well as the other two generals.

He was merely an ordinary close-combat mage. Although he possessed strength that ordinary people could not match, his strength was ultimately inferior to Gallio's mutation as well as Calsus' Luminous Cross-slash Shield in such a situation.

Felix's eyes narrowed as he gripped his staff that was as thick as a pillar tightly. Soon, a layer of pale blue light quickly enveloped the staff.

"Haaaahh!"

Felix roared angrily, and the veins on his arm bulged as power erupted from him.

"Oath of gold and Stone!"

"Ripple Overdrive!"

The staff in Felix's hand was instantly imbued with two different spells.

The countless complicated patterns on the staff lit up at this moment. Then, a layer of earthen yellow and light red extended from the staff and enveloped his body.

The Oath of Gold and Stone had allowed Felix to temporarily absorb the metal elements in the earth. They would form a protective layer on the surface of his skin, and at the same time, it would also strengthen Felix's physical attributes by several magnitudes.

As for Ripple Overdrive, it would enhance Felix's perception, thought speed, movement speed, and magic releasing speed greatly. By doing so, it would, usually, allow him to locate weak spots in his opponents' attacks.

Under the double protection of both spells, the intense feeling of danger that he was experiencing from before had disappeared.

Following this, he then placed his thick staff before him to block the thunderbolts from the Thunderous Divine Retribution.

However, even with the two buffs, both of Felix's arms were beginning to emit a burning smell.

Nevertheless, compared to losing his life, he was more than willing to bear this pain!

Felix gritted his teeth and forcefully blocked the terrifying thunderbolts from the Thunderous Divine Retribution.

Max's Thunderous Divine Retribution did not last very long. By rough estimates, it had lasted for around 20 seconds.

However, to Felix, Calsus, and Gallio, those 20 seconds felt like an eternity.

Indeed. 

The only humans left alive in the lair were Calsus, Felix, and Gallio.

The hundreds of soldiers who had accompanied the three generals had disappeared without a trace.

All that remained of the soldiers was the thick layer of ash covering the ground.

Calsus stepped on the ash-covered ground, deep in thought.

Some distance away, the Dragon-vanquishing Ballistae had been toppled over, and both of their outer shells had been burnt to charcoal by the Thunderous Divine Retribution.

"I didn't expect the proud dragon race to abandon their dignity and resort to such sneak attacks."

"Interesting, interesting indeed."

Calsus lowered his greatswords slightly and glared coldly at Max.

"What do you mean by resorting to sneak attacks?"

"Human, don't tell me that you find yourselves righteous? After all, weren't you trying to launch a sneak attack on our lair?"

Max sneered.

"Of course we're righteous. We humans are the favored children of Heaven and Earth. We are an existence that exemplifies courage, wisdom, and humility."

"On the other hand, you dragons are evil. So long as you exist, the world shall know not of peace."

Calsus stated coldly.

Max shook his head and refused to communicate any further with the hypocritical human before him.

In this world, the strong preyed on the weak.

Talking big meant nothing in this cruel world, as strength was the currency that reigned supreme!

Max glowered at the three humans before him and snorted.

Under the shocked gazes of the three humans, Max flapped his wings and left the lair.

'What was going on!?', the humans thought to themselves.

'Wasn't it going to fight us? Why is it running!?'
