Battle of Ascension - 414 Rank 7th Hero
Zephyr III could be considered a big figure in the House of God. His real name is Alexis.
House of God which beforehand was Olympus, but they disbanded Olympus and created the new Olympus, House of God.
There were many divisions in the House of God. Take example Zephyr faction, Zephyr III was only the title as third strongest in Zephyr. Zephyr l was the second strongest and the strongest in Zephyr faction called Zephyr God. This was one of many reasons why they disbanded Olympus and created House of God.
But of course, Zephyr was not the only God. But most of them used Ancient God Greek. There were Zeus, Poseidon, Hades, and more names used as the division in the House of God.
Zephyr used for the people with Wind Elemental Power and the strongest man with Wind Elemental Power could have Zephyr God as their title. It was an honor to have God as a title.
So, the House of God was a guild with the most competitive guild as the one with God title would become one of the House of God executives.
Zephyr III or Alexis’s strength could not be underestimated even though he was only at rank 3 at his division. In fact, there was no guild wanted to have crossed their way against the House of God. Many people called the House of God was where the madmen gathered.
Living in such an environment, it made the people of the House of God’s growth unbelievable. Maybe today one was a core member of the House of God, maybe tomorrow one would become a corpse and had someone changed that position.
So now Zephyr lll challenged Marlin who was weakened a lot after two consecutive matches. Having such an opponent, Marlin bound to lose. But then, the audience looked toward Randy.
At Marlin condition, it was not possible to continue the match. They thought Randy would intervene and had Marlin had enough rest first before letting Marlin fought again.
However, to their surprise, Randy did nothing. He seemed to have a great time, talking with the dark-skinned guy and the guy with a cold countenance.
But soon, they surprised for what they saw on the stage. Marlin stood up and Marlin who looked weak and exhausted was nowhere to be seen. They noticed Marlin breathed normally as if the exhausted beforehand Marlin was only an illusion to them.
The current Marlin even smiled leisurely as he faced Zephyr. There was no trace of fatigue and Marlin stood straight with his chest up.
Even Alexis stunned at this scene. Before, he was confident that he could win against the exhausted Marlin with ease. However, now, he was not even sure if he could win. But of course, Zephyr lll did not lose composure.
He took the 2 meters spear from his back, indicating he was ready. Marlin was still standing with relaxed.
“Start!”
With that shout, Alexis gripped the spear even tighter. But then, he saw the ten meters away Marlin was in front of him. In an instant, he could see five golden stick shot toward him, aiming at a certain spot of his body.
Alexis had experienced a similar technique, this was Saint “17” technique, Joe’s sword attack. But there was a distinct difference between the two techniques.
However, Alexis not it was not time to think how this monkey could use similar attack as Joe.
Bwosh!
A huge cyclone enveloped Alexis body and reflected Marlin’s attack. But the cyclone did not last long, it was there only for a moment.
Alexis thought the cyclone was enough to make Marlin stepped back. However, the thing did not go as he predicted. When the cyclone completely dissipated, there were another five sticks attacking him.
Before, he was caught unprepared, but now he was ready to receive this attack despite the surprise that his cyclone failed to hit Marlin back.
Alexis put his spear forward with his hand was holding in the middle of the spear shaft. Afterward, he spun the spear, blocking all of Marlin’s attack. But the force behind Marlin attack could not be underestimated.
Blocking Marlin stick, pushing him five meters back. Alexis felt his hand went numb when he received the attack. He was quite shocked, but he did not have time to dawdle about Marlin’s strength. One thing for sure, he must evade the attack, not receive it head-on.
At least, it was what Alexis thought and planned. As for reality, Marlin did not let Alexis evaded his stick. Marlin plastered Alexis.
Ping! Ping! Ping! Ping!
Alexis could block each of Marlin attack with his spear. But there was no chance for him to dodge Marlin’s stick.
…
The more they watched the fight, the more fearful they grew toward the Happy Guild. They did not expect Marlin was baiting them to fight him three times consecutively by showing his “weakness”.
Now, they watched Marlin was cornering Alexis to the edge of the arena. The flow of the fight was almost the same as two beforehand matches. But this time, it was Marlin who cornered his opponent, not otherwise.
By Alexis reached the edge of the arena, they witnessed something even more shocked. They witnessed the Alexis released his grasp from his spear.
What did it mean? By releasing the weapon from himself, the seven guilds thought Alexis gave up. But then, they realized something amiss on Alexis. Alexis only stood in the same position as a statue.
Marlin also stopped his attack. With only a light push with his golden stick, Alexis fell down from the arena without struggling at all.
There was no need for the referee to announce the result at all. Marlin bowed his head politely toward the audience before heading back toward Happy Guild. Yes, all of this had been planned by Marlin. Marlin knew Boss’s purpose in this event, of course, he would do the best too. He got thirty million by himself.
…
The arena fell into dead silence once more. The hope they had for defeating one of Happy Guild core members.
This time, Charles also realized Happy Guild not only strong but far stronger than them. Not even one people could defeat the beastmen who were weaker than the other core members. Let alone defeated a core member, they could not even make the beastmen to go all out.
But of course, most of them also did not go all out. For example, they did not use the transformation skill from the bloodline. After all, no one wanted their secret to be spread out. Moreover, each of the seven guilds did not have a good relationship between them, they were rival.
So, using transformation skill was the thing the least they wanted to use except it was a death and life situation.
The next match, it was Panzer turn. However, to other guilds surprised, Panzer withdrew from the event. Panzer stated they backed down from the event and would not participate anymore.
But one thing for sure, the group’s leader Panzer had a fearful and unsightly look on his face. It seemed that he found something fearful about Happy Guild but refused to tell the other guilds.
However, guild such as Starlight, Wind, House of God, and Saint was thinking Panzer was afraid of Happy Guild after watching how Happy Guild core members easily defeated the others.
“Heng! Small guild is just small guild after all!” Charles despised Panzer. Even though Alwin was defeated, He still did not give up yet to take the territory from Happy Guild.
Because of Panzer gave up in this event, the next match fell into Heroes Land. When it came to Heroes Land, the audience surprised once more when they saw the figure who walked toward the arena.
Harry Lancaster, the 7th Hero in Heroes Land participated in the fight so fast. It was weird as there was still Alice in Heroes Land team, the 9th Hero.
Alice was the second strongest, but Harry Lancaster made a shocking decision by fighting by himself directly. But it seemed Harry felt that not enough to shock them with fighting directly, he chose the opponent that would never be chosen by the others.
“My name is Harry Lancaster and I would like to challenge Happy Guild guild leader, Randy.”
