Nameless King-Chapter 814 Barrier

Bam. Bam. Bam.

From the moment Wain realized how he needed to destroy the tentacles to kill them completely, only a few minutes had passed, as the artifact in Virion's hands was already completely gray. All that was left was a small red stain that held because of the eleven eye-monsters. 𝒇𝘳ℯℯ𝚠𝙚𝑏𝗻𝑜ѵ𝑒𝙡.co𝑚

"Honestly, I thought it was going to be a lot harder, but it looks like I found a solution faster than you bargained for." Wain said with a devious smile on his face before turning into a dark flash.

He used one eye-monster to slowly destroy the others. Virion didn't even try to control them or waste his energy on them since the outcome was already obvious.

'Damn... I was too greedy and it caused me to fail. I wanted to wound him and ended up firing all the lasers at once... Well, I still have eight artifacts left, so no major problems should be a problem. He's used his last trump card, which means I've practically won.' Virion said inwardly with a calm look before swinging his arm.

Whooooooooooosh.

Two artifacts appeared in front of him at once. One was a break in two old sword, covered in chains, the other was a strange cloud in the center of which was a crystal sphere with a transparent drop that occasionally disappeared.

'Eighth and seventh... After I deal with these artifacts I will have to activate the seventh form, then I will feel better, but before that...' Wain wondered as he stared at the two remaining eye-monsters.

He appeared beside them like a ghost, grabbed their heads, and pushed them against each other. Nothing happened as so Wain couldn't make the eye-monsters use lasers, but he had another plan. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

Crackle.

Wain yanked their tentacles as energy gathered in their pupils, preparing to turn into lasers and Wain with a sly smile on his face threw the eye-monsters forward.

The eye-monsters were right in front of the lightning beasts as the moment exploded. The lightning beasts didn't expect Wain to do something so crazy, so they didn't have time to dodge.

Boooooooooooom!

Lasers flew out of the eye-monsters as contact with the lightning beasts produced a powerful explosion. There was practically nothing left of the eye-monsters, the electrical discharges just tore their bodies apart while the beasts were split into several pieces.

Wain knew that the lightning beasts were probably still alive, so he watched carefully to see what would happen to them.

Whooooooooooosh.

The torn-off paws, body parts, and even the head joined together as if nothing had happened as the two lightning beasts were ready to fight again. Not a single emotion appeared on Virion's face, as though showing that it was all useless.

'Hmm... Virion would never give me a clue, but now I understand how I can deal with these strange beasts...' Wain internally muttered with an ice-cold look while his eyes pierced the beasts, 'I thought I was imagining things last time, but I was not. They got a little smaller after they regenerated, so their energy isn't infinite.'

'Bingo!' the Abyss Artist suddenly exclaimed with a slight smirk on his face, 'If I calculated it right, you need to kill them three or four more times before their energy runs out completely.'

Wain nodded slightly, gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, and his aura intensified. Streams of darkness appeared beside him, slowly enveloping him like a veil, preparing to protect him in case of danger.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Virion channeled energy into the sword as the chains around it shook violently. Then, the sword flew high up while many cracks appeared on it.

'What is this...?' Wain inwardly muttered while in confusion.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The chains trembled as they broke into hundreds of links. Each link flew away from one another at the same distance, creating a dome-like structure over their arena, but without any structure.

"I must say that I have every confidence that you can handle all my artifacts. It would be a serious waste for a great reward, but you certainly can't do it without wounds!" Virion exclaimed in a thunderous voice as the broken sword shone brightly.

Moments later, the sword exploded with crimson light as the sword's energy headed toward each link, creating a small bloody barrier around it. A phantom sword sign appeared in front of the chain links that seemed like it could become real at any moment.

"Barrier...? Hah, do you really still think I'm going to run away from you? I've already told you several times that until I kill you, I won't go beyond this tree!" Wain spoke in a serious voice with a confident expression as he pointed the sword at Virion.

Whoooooooooosh.

The darkness trembled as it turned into a massive torrent, crashing down on Virion with tremendous speed. In the midst of the darkness, several eerie, clenching jaws opened at once.

Virion's eyes widened slightly as he didn't expect Wain to attack so suddenly, but he quickly realized what to do and with a calm look he leaped aside.

A stream of darkness swept by him, making his white robe flutter, but Virion didn't even turn around as he stared intently at Wain.

'Hmm... He didn't fend off my attack? I'll just destroy his barrier now.' Wain inwardly muttered as the stream of darkness reached the bloody barrier.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The barrier trembled violently as well as the top floor. The corrosive effect of the darkness with creepy jaws could destroy anything, but the barrier just absorbed all the energy even though it seemed difficult.

"Shit, it's pretty tough..." Wain uttered with a frowned look as his eyes went wide.

Suddenly part of the barrier glowed brightly as a third of the entire sword seals turned into energy weapons. They came down on Wain like real blades, aiming at his most vulnerable spots.

Whoooooooooosh.

Wain's silhouette blurred as he turned into clots of darkness, heading to the other side of the arena. At the same time, the blades reached the stone floor, passing effortlessly through it like it was a piece of paper.

'Fuck... I just got rid of one problem as a new one appeared... They're endless, right?' Wain complained lightly while shaking his head.
