The Gods Decree - Chapter 171 It's Just Business

This man was the first of his kind that Taf had actually met. His manner of doing things highlighted some seriously troubling issues. Yet, Taf stared back in his eyes then offered a retort,

“I’m sorry there can be only one Mouse and he quite enjoys his face, so the quota has already been filled.”

Still, Benzalo was intrigued as he looked at Taf like a newly discovered specimen to be dissected. Seeing his persistent gaze Taf continued,

“It seems I have in my possession the desired tools to offer the necessary assistance deserving for someone such as yourself.

Guess I’m a specialist in the field, isn’t it unfortunate I didn’t set my sights on becoming a medical Practioner?”

Taf stretched while having the two long Warhammers in his hands,

“After I’m done that head of yours will be working like all those who have crossed the Mouse in the past.

I bet they are chirping about the results, do send my regard as you join them in hell, won’t you.” Taf ended by saying.

Once more Benzalo seemed fascinated with Taf.

“Oh, my father would have loved you dearly. How can someone talk about taking a life with no seeming remorse but like a game?

Life is precious and such be cherished.”

Taf sentiments were then berated by Benzalo as he questioned his morality. Seemingly delving into the persona of the son and the religious leader at the same time.

His reply only once more put into perspective the type of foe Taf faced. A man to which the world was only a seeming game where he could try on masks and be whoever he wanted.

????????????????????????

Looking around Taf saw the prism had shrunken drastically as it made its way to the center of the city.

Below the heat intensified and the air became thin. All due to the prism holding even the oxygen tethered. The size of the populous did not help the situation as this precious resource became a scarcity.

If this was a city of mortals they would be dropping like flies under these conditions. Still, this did not mean it would not be the same scenario if this persisted.

This intensified the panic which overwhelmed all within its confinement. It had reached the stage that the squads of the Dark Abylis Sect could no longer contain any semblance of order.

After a while, they had to give up while once more grouping together looking the skies.

They knew at this moment their only hope lied in the hands of the youth, they now deemed there leader. May too looked up as at this moment that the last attack caused her to drain almost all her qi.

She understood that whatever is left she would have to reserve in helping Taf to deal with the pressing danger of the prism.

????????????????????????

Making note of all that unfolded Taf knew he had to hurriedly finish this opponent. After which finding some means by which to rid the city of the prism.

????Elemental Art (Earth) Iron body????

Again an iron sheen quickly replaced Taf’s dark skin as the ever-present black lightning twisted around his body.

????Elemental Art (Fire) Embodiment????

As he called forth his hammers ignited into torrent red flames.

Boom! He sped through the skies with Benzalo in his sight knowing fully well he wouldn’t be so easily defeated as his brother prior.

“Even for a soul such as yours, I will burn incense in refection of your life.”

Benzalo uttered then wasting no time with the impending Taf, he called forth upon an art of his own.

????Cultivation Art (Earth & Fire Element) Two-headed Spitting Cobre????

Earth and fire elements violently twisted around Benzalo’s body. Seen forming was scaly exterior of a large snake.

Then the contours of two heads could be seen, one was red similar to torrent flames and the other brown with semblance to the earth.

The brown and red coils of the cobra entwined tightly underneath itself. Its tongue flicked in and out as it watched Taf with beady, abyss-like eyes.

Soon the head made of earth twisted its element as sharp metal pointy fragments were formed.

Pew! Pew!

It shot them towards the charging Taf, they moved with such force that any target hit would be torn to bits. Counter attacking Taf twisted his body as he rotated with the air at violet speeds.

Ping! Ping! His hammers which were ablaze smashed the metal projectiles with lightning speeds. Yet they would not be discouraged as the fragments still hounded in Taf.

Soon the cobra head made of fire too started to spit rapid flames as Taf tried countering against the onslaught of the other.

They were no let-ups as Taf was bombarded with attacks from all angles. At the present time, he saw no means by which he could get through Benzalo’s attacks if things persisted as they did.

Through Benzalo’s attacks, the sky appeared as though it was on fire as the cobra torched.

He was meticulous ensuring that though his attacks were unrelenting there was no opening available for Taf to counter.

Using two cobra heads to his advantage, he ensured while one attacked the other was defended.

Thus all this time Taf had not wounded him once. Below Taf heard screams, as he feared people began dropping like flies.

With the barrage of Benzalo’s flames the oxygen within the air only acted as fuel for the fire.

Now, this was the downfall of those below as the already depleted air Benzalo used recklessly without any care as his flaming cobra heads gorged.

“Shit!”

Taf yelled seeing exactly what was unfolding and knowing the death toll would only rise by the thousands each minute the battle was prolonged.

Soon he deactivated the flames for his hammer as the lightening started twisting violently around his body. Within his pupils became charcoal black as static energy formed.

“No time for holding back.” He muttered while calling forth,

????Heaven’s Art-Gravity????

Soon Benzalo found something odd occurring his body felt heavy thus all his movements became slower. This was the same for his attacks which he felt became harder to maneuver.

He saw Taf discarding his hammers as he tore through the skies at unprecedented speeds avoiding the projectiles.

This was all due to having the full gravity in effect, his body was now like a fish in water fueled by the currents.

He then did something peculiar making his iron hands into a fist from the distances. How he intended to fight him from that distance Benzalo had no idea.

????Thrust????

Then he saw Taf punch through the air in his direction with confidence. There was no benefit he could think of to what Taf was doing. Until… Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click www.novelhall.com for visiting.

Boom! He saw the cobra made from the earth being smashed as its head twisted. Being that it was his art in place, he too felt the effects while coughing up blood.

Once more Taf punched out with his fist and it was now the turn of other cobra head as it was smashed.

Again Benzalo felt the brunt of the attack. Seeing how quickly the battle had turned with him being on the losing end Benzalo yelled…

????Cobra Cloak Mode????

The gigantic cobra before Taf’s eyes visible started to shrink around Benzalo’s body as a red and brown glow intensified with his eyes becoming beady.

Boom!

Benzalo’s qi then shot through the roof alleviated some of the pressure help on his body. His speed too seemingly had an upgrade.

The two met mid-air as unlike before the cobra heads would not be out boldly but only attack at convenient intervals.

This time they came from his fist as he countered with earth and fire punches of his own.

The two violently exchanged blows unrelentingly. Benzalo with a cobra head on each hand and Taf with his gravity punches. Bloodied and coughing up blood, still neither would give way as both seemed un par before…

????Pull????

Taf motioned his left arm as Benzalo who had dodged his attack found it odd as a suction force was around pulling him towards Taf.

No matter what he tried there was no escape as he saw him form the other palm into a fist.

Bam! His face felt the full brunt of Taf’s fist caving in, and a few of his teeth were swallowed. Yet this was not all Taf had in store for him.

After observing his brother’s fight he had an idea the plans Taf had in mind, next was an onslaught.

Wanting to have none of this a snake cloak sneakily wrapped around Taf’s body restricting his movement as a Benzalo received a breather.

Yet, would Taf give away this precious advantage? Not a chance..

The black lightning twisted around his body before spontaneously combusting.

Zizz! electricity coursed through the body of the cobra as it relinquished its hold on Taf. He then once more continued his onslaught pulling Benzalo within his path.

Bam!

He smashed his fist into his ribcage as Benzalo spat blood all over his shoulder. As a reflex action, Benzalo could only hold his gut in pain. Soon however he felt a presence lurking above.

????Smash????

With one Warhammer in his hand, Taf smashed down amidst the full force of gravity behind him.

Wack! The hammer aimed to bash above Benzalo’s skull but quickly the twin cobra’s slithered up putting a layer of protection above his head.

Still, this only alleviated some of the pain as he was sent spiraling down to the earth vomiting blood.

????Final Form-Cobra Fusion????

Soon the earth and fire snakeheads twisted around each other before they became one. Seeing Benzalo gearing up to unleash his finishing move there was a slight twinkle in Taf’s eyes.

Nevertheless, Taf continued with his assault from above bashing down with his hammer as Benzalo continuous puke blood before the mouth of fuse cobra became aghast.

????Molted Lava????

Fire and earth coiled around each other as red smelting lava was viciously spewed towards the hover Taf.

“I was wondering when you would relinquish what I needed,” Taf uttered..

????Demon Inherent Art-Devour????

Taf with a flicker appeared before Benzalo placing his right hand out as a suction force started to form. It was as though he was uncaring of the consequences meeting the attack full on,

????Retention????

The attack which had just formed was to the surprise of Benzalo devoured by the right hand of Taf.

Still, Taf didn’t stop there punching him in the gut before  viciously ripping the Cobra cloak from Benzalo’s body. Looking at his opponent helpless form Taf then uttered,

“I needed extra help in tackling the prism. I knew you had more hidden. For this I thank you. Now die!”

Defensively and devoid of qi Benzalo saw Taf once more summon his Warhammer.

Bam!

An iron foot found his gut before…

Wack!

The hammer landed atop his shoulder sending him spiraling to the ground below as he went in and out of consciousness.

When he finally glance below he saw Taf awaiting his descent with his hammer in a stance. Try though he might to regain his balance pulling up, it was no help as the gravity intensified surging around him at any even higher speed..

“I have been a nobleman in my life, a loving son and lover of the people. My life has been a blessed one. I welcome death with open arms.”

A smile blossomed on Benzalo face as he said his last words to Taf. In his mind, Taf could only think this man was truly a sick delusional bastard.

” As you would say, It’s just business”

Wack! Taf’s hammer met him under his chin as snapping sound was heard. His neck was now deformed and broken backward.

Bap! Benzalo hit the ground filled with ash dead.
