Chapter 1175 False God Of Thunder: Jupiter
Chapter 1175 False God Of Thunder: Jupiter
-----
Yeah, it made sense now. The Scrap King's true appearance, it's true form, and what it truly was. It wasn't just the scrap metals it unified together as a body. No, that was nothing but its outer shell, a way to keep itself moving with a solid body, without wasting too much energy. Its true body was that huge, white marble, of at least ten meters of height.
That thing was most likely of the same material as the White Crystal Tree of the Robots, composed of a combination of hundreds of their crystal cores, further refined through thousands of years of absorbing Mana and Spirit Energy from the environment.
However, instead of becoming a pacific entity that desired to connect the Robots together to bring them to a higher state of being, the Scrap King was a more predatory entity, one similar to a carnivorous beast instead of a plant.
It desired to eat and to grow endlessly, an animalistic instinct that almost every single living being has anyways, yet he had a strange fixation against the Robots in specific, most likely because it could keep growing stronger by absorbing and assimilate their Cores.
And the reason why it wanted to attack the Tree wasn't for being just "Evil" as the Robots told me, no, the Scrap King merely wanted to continue surviving and thriving.
Therefore, it simply wanted to eat the tree and become even bigger and stronger…
And its true form… It was finally upon us, a being with a single white marble of a core, and the rest? A near Divine Body of pure Lightning and Thunder!
Ding!
[The [Giant Scrap King (Tier 10)] has lost its metallic shell, revealing to you its true form.]
[The [Giant Scrap King (Tier 10: Rank 1)] True name has been revealed: [False God Of Thunder: Jupiter (Tier 10: Rank 8)]
[All of Jupiter's Defenses have decreased by -100%, however, their Speed and Attack Power has further increased by +200%!]
With no body, it clearly has no defenses anyways! That Thunder Body is nothing but intangible matter anyways, the only thing we can damage is the white marble itself, wrapped on layers after layers of deadly, electrifying thunder!
"I am… LIGHTNING…!" The Scrap King roared, or well, Jupiter. "I am… JUPITER!"
"Jupiter?!" Asked Aquarina. "D-Don't tell me this damn thing is like the Apollo we fought?!"
"Most likely!" I said. "Some sort of experiment of the Gods, or maybe, the hatred of the Robots against their creators, much like how Apollo was artificially created, the robot's hatred created something similar, an amalgamation of their consciousness, and of their powerful Robotic Electromagnetic Cores. They created a False God, Jupiter…"
"You… Who dare… OPPOSE me… Die… DIE!"
While struggling to speak, Jupiter slowly took a shape, it was no longer beast-like, but resembled a tall humanoid figure made of pure thunder, with six bulky arms and a long dragon-like tail instead of legs below. Its head had three faces, all showing an enraged expression.
FLASH!
It attacked, in just less than a split second, a hundred lightning spears appeared above us, looming down and moving at sonic speed. Explosions of lightning and plasma engulfed us, as I used Brownie's powers to summon a huge wall of stone to dirt, which somehow managed to redirect the lightning below the ground.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
However, the intensity of the attack was way too high, the stone walls easily shattered as I created them endlessly with the power of my Agricultural Arts and Brownie's magic! Aquarina also conjured dirt walls, but they were being also easily destroyed.
ZAAP!
BOOOM!
Another powerful beam reached us before we could properly react, hitting me instead of Aquarina as I flew in front of her. The explosion felt like it almost consumed my body, if it wasn't for the Divine Barrier activating.
Three gone, three more left!
"You are tough… But you will die. Like everyone… DIES! I will kill them… the Gods! I need power… POWER, POWER, MORE POWER! GIVE ME YOUR POWER!"
Jupiter wasn't in the right place, his countless minds unifying together only for their desire of hatred certainly didn't make for an incredible intelligence. His entire being materialized in a split second above us, moving so fast it felt like it simply teleported itself.
"DIE! You will BECOME my SOURCE of POWER!"
Suddenly, he materialized a giant spear of thunder, descending towards us. With Aquarina and my shield, we barely managed to block the impact as we were lunged away with a huge thunderous shockwave, the spear hit the ground, generating such a gigantic explosion that it left a massive, over a hundred-meter-deep crater below.
CRAAASH!
"DAMMIT!" Aquarina roared. "RAAAH!"
Aquarina and I lost our patience as we grew slightly desperate. We conjured a myriad of magic attacks, hoping that Jupiter didn't have the same annoying barrier as before. Countless of magical explosions bombarded over his thunderous body!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
However, against our hopes, it didn't work. Every explosion was easily stopped by a transparent, blue-colored barrier that simply negated the fluctuations of Mana entirely! Jupiter stared at us with its six glowing eyes, with no emotion at all.
"It didn't work?! This is so damn unfair!" Aquarina cried. "Do we really need to punch that marble?! But we can't touch it without getting all electrocuted!"
"I know." I nodded. "So I got a plan… Grab this." I said, giving Aquarina the gun the robots gave to me. "Between the two of us, you've got much better accuracy because you've always practiced dagger throwing, right?"
"Y-Yeah but will this work?!" Aquarina asked, as we continuously escaped from endless explosions of lightning chasing us from behind.
"It has to!" I said. "After all, I am also relying on my damned cheat. Let's fight a cheat against a cheat, Jupiter!"
Ding!
[You have used the [System Modification] Spell to modify your Class and Subclass!]
[You have temporarily renamed your Class and Subclass!]
"DIE!"
Jupiter's roar reverberated across the ceiling above, his entire being teleporting above us in a split second, suddenly summoning yet another titanic spear of thunder.
Yet I didn't escape this time, receiving the thunder head-on!
BOOOM!
