Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 1142 The Battle At The Capital City Of Agartha [Part 4]

While the battle against the Abyssal Army and the Agarthians intensified, Eligor was able to deal the killing blow to the Founding King of Agartha due to Nyarlathotep's earlier screech.

The Awakened Kings and Queens were only able to fight due to the Will that they had left behind in their bodies before they died.

Simply put, the Kings and Queens no longer had souls. They were more like programmed robots who were only ordered to do one thing.

So when Nyarlathotep attacked their minds, it caused a brief lag in their movements, creating an opportunity for their opponents to deal a fatal blow to their bodies.

The Founding King of the Ancient Kingdom, King Agarath, didn't die right away after getting stabbed in the chest by Eligor. 

He was still able to fight despite his injuries, but his resistance only lasted for a few more minutes before he perished. The Elite Saints who accompanied him in battle died not long after his death, freeing Eligor from those who were attacking him.

Instead of fighting the Agarthian Army, Eligor flew towards the City of Agartha to join the other Demigods in destroying it.

Now that the tide of battle had finally shifted to favor the Abyssal Legion, the Defenders were slowly being pushed back by their invaders.

Aurora, who had been holding her sister in the underground shelter, suddenly shuddered and fell into a trance.

A moment later, she touched her sister's head, making her fall asleep.

"Take care of her," Aurora said as she handed her sister to her other brothers and sisters, who were in the same room as them.

She knew that if she didn't do anything, her people would perish, which would mark the end of their kingdom.

As someone who was loved by Misfortune, she had the power to use it against her enemies. Because of this, she decided to join the battle and help her Father and Lover keep her people safe.

Eligor saw Nyarlathotep fighting against Lux and decided to help the latter kill the Half-Elf.

With two Demigods attacking him at the same time, Lux had no choice but to distance himself because he couldn't fight against two of them at once. 

Also, both of his enemies were at the peak of the Demigod Rank, making them very hard to deal with.

Suddenly, a song spread in the surroundings, making Lux, as well as the Demigods fighting around the city, look in the direction where the song was coming from.

Standing at the ramparts of the city, a beautiful young lady with long pink hair sang with her eyes closed.

Dark clouds started to form in the sky, and thunder rumbled across the heavens.

Lightning streaked across the sky as Aurora prepared to unseal her curse, allowing her to use the full might of Misfortune's Beloved.

A giant lightning bolt descended from the sky, hitting one of the Calamity-Ranked Monsters that had managed to enter the city and was starting to destroy everything in its path.

Soon, more lightning bolts hit it, making it scream in pain.

At the start, only a few lightning bolts descended. However, half a minute later, lightning fell from the sky like rain, forcing the Demigods to distance themselves from the city.

Although the lightning bolts wouldn't kill them, their instincts were telling them that getting hit by one of them was bad news.

Aurora was manifesting and summoning all the Misfortunes in the world, turning them into lightning bolts, which would curse the Creatures they hit with misfortune.

A pained scream escaped Aurora's lips as one of the Lightning Bolts hit her, making her stagger.

She wasn't exempt from the relentless bombardment. 

In fact, she was more in danger of it due to her bad luck.

After the first lightning bolt hit, more lightning bolts followed, making Aurora scream in pain again and again.

The sound of her screams made Lux's eyes turn bloodshot, and the Half-Elf roared in anger, transforming into his Demi-Dragon Form.

Seeing that their enemy was planning to go all out with them, Nyarlathotep and Eligor glanced at each other and sneered.

Both of them then unleashed a powerful long-range attack, not targeted at Lux but at Aurora, whose chaotic thunderstorm posed a threat to their Abyssal Army.

Lux had summoned his Clones, and all of these Clones unleashed Dragon Breaths to block the two Demigods' attacks while the Half-Elf focused his attention on Nyarlathotep.

Among all the enemies in his surroundings, the Outer God was giving him a very bad feeling, so he was determined to end him as soon as he could.

Faced with Lux, who was hell-bent on going for the kill, Nyarlathotep's Clone knew that if it didn't use its trump card, it would lose against the Half-Elf in battle.

"Congratulations!" Nyarlathotep sneered. "It's time for you and everyone here to die!"

The Outer God kicked the Half-Elf away before flying high into the sky.

Countless lightning bolts hit its body, destroying bits and pieces of it, but Nyarlathotep didn't care.

It simply laughed as its entire body expanded like a giant balloon.

At that exact moment, Poseidon's main cannons fired and hit it directly.

However, instead of being vaporized, the body of the Outer God only grew as if it was using the damage it was receiving to empower itself further.

Nyarlathotep's body continued to increase in size, almost two hundred meters long. It looks absolutely horrendous like a flesh monster with countless mouths and tentacles protruding from its body.

Seeing this scene, Eligor and the other Demigods hastily backed away in fright because they knew what was about to come.

However, as if they were tied up by invisible strings. The Demigods' bodies froze, and they were pulled towards the expanding blob of flesh with horrified looks on their faces.

"Stop, Nyarlathotep!" Eligor shouted. 

However, all that answered him was a crazed laughter that reverberated across the entire battlefield.

Soon, countless Abyssal Monsters were being pulled up to the ever-expanding monstrosity in the sky, making them all scream in fright.

Eligor gritted his teeth and activated a special artifact that allowed him to instantly teleport away to the Anchor that he had placed on the surface.

A handful of Demigods did the same, for they were the type who always had a lifesaving technique that could be used in dire situations such as this.

Unfortunately, not all Demigods had thought this far, and they were all sucked up to be consumed by Nyarlathotep, making Lux's face turn grim.

The creature in front of him was starting to resemble the image that hovered above Daniel when he had fought against it a year ago.

The only difference was that Nyarlathotep's form was more horrendous and vile compared to Azathoth's.

"Stop him at all costs!" King Septimus roared.

Perhaps sensing what the monster was capable of doing, he unleashed his strongest attacks at it, hoping that it would be destroyed.

Unfortunately, his attacks only made the creature's body bigger, which was now over two miles long, and still growing.

Eiko, who was holding her Nuclear-Level Blast Bombs, was hesitating because she had a feeling that throwing it against the monster would do more harm than good.

Then it happened.

Everyone heard a heartbeat that pulsed so loud, it could be heard for miles on end. The sound of this heartbeat grew stronger and faster.

Nyarlathotep's body then started to glow red at regular intervals, similar to the beating of a heart.

The red glow intensified with each passing second as if it was a bomb that was about to detonate. 

Alarm bells started to ring inside Lux's head because he had a feeling that he knew exactly what was going to happen next.

As if confirming his worst nightmare, a single eye opened within the mass of flesh, looking down on all of them with contempt.

"Perish in my name."

Nyarlathotep's disdainful voice sounded across the entire lands of Agartha as its body swelled, in preparation for an explosion that might potentially destroy the entire planet.

But, just as its body was about to explode, something flying in its direction caught Lux's eye.

His lover, Aurora, was flying towards the Outer God who was about to explode with a determined look in her eyes.

"N-No!" Lux shouted. "Aurora!"

The young lady heard Lux's shout and glanced in his direction.

Something golden was glowing on her chest, and it emitted a golden dome, encapsulating Nyarlathotep's entire body.

Just before a world-ending explosion erupted, Aurora's affectionate voice reached Lux's ears. 

"I love you, Lux."

A second later, an explosion that was capable of destroying half the planet, detonated, drowning the entire kingdom of Agartha in blinding light.
