Chapter 811. Vanquishing the Lightning
Jack looked at his minions that were all inside this lightning prison, Therras, Spirit Weapon, and Peniel.
Therras had very high HP and also high defense due to its armor. With its current Sovereign Mode, which was what Peniel called it when it transformed under his Ultimate Beast's effect, it should be able to tank through the spell. If it got too dangerous, he should still be able to unsummon it in time.
Peniel was small and fast. But Jack had seen the speed of this Perpetual Lightning Judgement. It was not something that could be dodged. Not to mention the sheer number of produced lightning was unreal. She had an innate reduced damage ability. If her HP dropped too low, she would go into an automatic invincibility state. However, he was not sure if Peniel would not be one-shot by the lightning.
The spirit weapon was like Peniel, fast and had a slim frame that made it difficult to be hit. But its HP and defense were not that impressive.
'Can you cast Invincibility on the spirit weapon?' Jack asked Peniel in his mind.
'I can since the spirit weapon is part of you. But if I do that, you won't get the effect,' Peniel answered.
'Don't worry about me,' Jack said.
Peniel also received invulnerability when she cast the spell, so both she and the spirit weapon should be fine.
Jack sensed that Garland had finished gathering his spell. The lightning core in his hand was ready to explode.
Garland looked at Jack with a savage grin. "Perish! You, pesky outworlder!"
'Peniel, now!' Jack sent her a silent command.
The lightning core exploded into countless lightning snakes. The lightning snakes went back and forth. It almost filled the entirety of the space inside the lightning fence, especially the area where Jack was at. Those from the outside saw as if the space inside the fence had become solid lightning. Aside from Garland and Therras, which position was opposite from Jack, they couldn't see anything else.
Garland stared at the lightning that filled his view. Since he could do slight mana manipulation, he could also sense mana. However, the mana created by his spell was too turbulence. He couldn't sense if the outworlder had perished inside the sea of lightning before him. He thought it should be so. No way that outworlder survived.
He was about to shift his attention to duke Alfredo outside his lightning fence, but he noticed the Therras Beast behind him was still alive. Its HP was below half already but it was still alive. It was not so strange because he didn't concentrate his lightning on that pet. However, didn't a pet get unsummoned when its owner died?
As an impossible thought dawned on him, he sensed something unsettling. A power that he was very familiar with. Yet, purer, more pristine, more divine.
The lightning of his Perpetual Lightning Judgement finally dimmed. In its place, twenty large lightning balls hovered. At the center was that dragon-shaped outworlder, covered in a suit of lightning.
Garland was stunned by the impossible sight that he paused for a beat. He simply couldn't believe this outworlder had survived his strongest spell. Unharmed even. In exchange, the outworlder was generating a power of lightning that made the lightning within him trembled.
When he snapped to attention, the twenty floating lightning balls had come to him. Time seemed to stand still. At this moment, three more details registered in his mind. Firstly, the outworlder's spirit weapon. It had transformed into a gigantic sword and was currently falling from above him. Secondly, the long throat of the dragon-shaped outworlder. It was shining an eery purple. Thirdly, one out of the six arms of the outworlder was glowing and had black lightning shrouding it.
Then, three things happened at the same time. The gigantic sword stabbed him and its energy core exploded. The twenty lightning balls crashed onto him and exploded. The outworlder's dragon maw opened and unleashed a dense destructive beam.
What Garland didn't realize, was that there were actually four things happening at that time. The fourth that he didn't notice was coming from his back. After surviving the Perpetual Lightning Judgement, Therras retaliated. It opened its mouth and yellow energy gathered before it. When Jack's three attacks hit Garland, Therras also fired the yellow energy core.
The four attacks hit at the same time and the resulting detonation was catastrophic. Both Jack and Therras were pushed by the explosive wind and hit the lightning fence. The lightning fence also suffered under the pressure. It soon dissolved and the energy of the blast radiated outward.
Jack's body fell to the ground and was dragged a long distance away. His body was still covered by the lightning suit. When he stopped, he looked at the receding explosion.
"Damn, that felt even more powerful than I expected," he said. "I saw Therras shoot something from its mouth, what was that?"

"That was Earth Core Bomb," Peniel answered. "It was its ultimate attack when it was in Sovereign mode. It carried concentrated energy of the earth element."
"That means the explosive attacks just now had four elements mixed together?" Jack said. His Lightning God Barrage was the lightning element. His Spirit Weapon's finishing mode was chaos element. His dragon form soul breath carried soul element. Therras' ultimate attack was the earth element.
The combined explosive attack of two elements already resulted in a damage number that was greater than the sum of the two attacks. If it was an explosive combination that mixed four different elements, wouldn't the resulting effect be much stronger?
Jack looked at the dispersing dust cloud. It was too far away for him to sense anything. Could Garland be killed already by those combination attacks just now? He hoped so. But if that was true, then he also felt pity since he didn't use his runestone of luck.
As the dust cloud subsided, he saw a shadow inside. The shadow of a standing man. Garland was not yet dead!
A blast of lightning burst out from the dust cloud and hit Jack. Luckily, he still wore the Lightning God Suit. He felt punched in the gut, but otherwise, he received no damage.
The lightning blast just now also dispersed the remaining dust cloud, revealing Garland in tattered clothes. His hair was disheveled. The HP bar above him indicated that he had less than fifteen percent of HP left.
"Die!" Duke Alfredo shouted. He cast his spell. Hundreds of magic spears materialized and shot at Garland.
Garland had also been casting a spell when the duke did. Strands of lightning formed a shell around him. This lightning shell destroyed the majority of the magic spears that came to him, but some still got through and stabbed him.
"Garland! I will help you!" Claudius yelled. He was still fighting against Arlcard, Bailey, and Laurent. He repelled the two melee fighters before rushing to where Garland was.
Duke Alfredo, who saw it, cast a spell and raised multi-layered earth walls that blocked his path.
Jack looked at his hand, his Overlimit was still active, and so did his Lightning God Suit. He couldn't let them go to waste. He again used Wind Jet to propel himself forward. He could see Therras was also running towards Garland. His pet still had around forty percent of HP, and it was also still in sovereign mode. It could still fight.
Garland saw Jack approaching, he immediately fired a few lightning bolts at Jack. However, Jack just brushed them off. Jack continued to come at him at full speed. He was confused, why did his lightning have no effect? He should have killed this outworlder a hundred times over by now.
In his frustration, he concentrated his lightning into a ball with his two hands. This concentrated ball of lightning crackled with overwhelming power. When Jack came before him, he detonated the lightning ball on Jack's face. At the same time, two of Jack's six hands grabbed Garland's arms.
The lightning explosion would have obliterated anything. Yet, Jack still stood before him.
Jack had felt the strong blast from the explosion. He would have been blasted away again if he didn't hold Garland's arms. He had forcefully held onto Garland to stay close to him.
Jack then battered all his six claws onto Garland. Using whatever skills that were still available to him. Therras had come and sent attacks from the back.
Garland continued to batter Jack with his lightning, but it was as if all his attacks were thrown into the sea. None of his lightning seemed to bother Jack. There was no damage whatsoever.
His confusion soon turned to fear. His HP was critical now.
He blasted Therras away with his lightning. He then turned to flee. Jack executed Hundred Shadow Strikes, hoping this skill could take out the little HP Garland still had. He summoned his Runestone of Luck
Unfortunately, Garland survived the attack. Worse, Jack's Overlimit and Lightning God Suit ran out of duration. Most of his skills were also on cooldown.
Garland fired his lightning instinctively to push Jack away while fleeing. Jack activated Dragon Eye and cast Magic Wall. The wall shattered but successfully protected him. Without the Lightning God Suit, it would be easy for Garland to obliterate him.
Duke Alfredo's no-fly-zone spell had also ended. Garland found that he could fly again. He was just about to escape to the sky when a shadow crashed into him. Once it happened, numerous shadow blades pierced out of his body before stabbing back again.
It was Arlcard with his rune technique. Since Claudius was busy with duke Alfredo, Arlcard had taken the chance when no one paid attention to him to build up his rune technique. He then aimed the technique at Garland who was close to death.
Garland only had a little bit of HP left. It took only a few seconds for Arlcard's rune technique to take out Garland's remaining HP.
