Duncan had never witnessed a Bloody Five Stars mark before; it hadn’t converted into a skull mark, likely as the divine-like power behind them wasn’t strong enough.
"Feels like inviting the god!"
"Is this possession?"
Duncan realized that the world’s heroic units exploded into berserk easily, with gods above casually bestowing a wisp of divine power and grace.
Boom boom boom!
Originally dominating from above, Hegel was suddenly pinned down by the enemy and slammed heavily to the ground. A human-shaped depression over a meter deep appeared, with Hegel almost entirely buried into the earth.
Duncan swiftly gripped his spear and launched a thrust. Blood burst forth as the spear pierced nearly halfway through, penetrating the enemy’s thigh.
If no one else died, Hegel died here!
Break your limits!
The physique of this giant hero was already beyond mortal, normally, Duncan crippling its right leg should have affected its movement, but it didn’t. It entered a state similar to frenzy, and its combat skills significantly improved.
Bleeding had almost no effect on it!
A massive palm hammered the ground, not only burying Hegel beneath the surface but also shattering nearby rocks, like an Earth Splitting Slash, causing Duncan to lose balance, falling into a weird state of stiffness.
The next second.
The enemy picked up a stone pillar and swung it. Duncan barely parried with Grandfather, but sparks flew, and his figure was knocked back more than ten meters. Rising up instantly, he spat out a mouthful of blood while the life bar on the projection page dropped by almost half.
"Cheating!"
"This is definitely master-level combat skills."
That silky combo just now reminded Duncan of the War God Kratos from games, only a top-notch veteran warrior could pull that off.
Even the archers turned into Berserkers.
At this moment, Hegel was already severely wounded. As the giant swung the stone pillar towards his head, a nearly dying Hegel suddenly burst forth with an invisible bloodlight.
——Hegel (Power Domain)(Divine Grace)(Divine Power)(Five-star Gold)!
He unexpectedly caught the giant’s descending stone pillar with his bare hands.
A whisper echoed in.
The voice of the witch Gleya suddenly sounded in Duncan’s ear, saying softly, "Inside the cave, there is a shrine altar sacred to giants; destroy it, and you can eliminate its divine power."
But Duncan’s focus had shifted from that matter.
Dimension Space.
At some unknown time, two invisible phantoms appeared above the projection page, quietly overseeing the battle.
——The incarnation of Kod, God of Strength (Powerful Divine Power).
——The incarnation of Lady of Gems (Dwarf Deity)(Weak Divine Power).
Duncan once thought Attila, God’s Whip’s Sanctuary of Ten Thousand Spirits was already bizarre enough, but unexpected affairs occurred where divine spirits could incarnate and walk among mortals.
A dying Hegel instantly broke his limits, revealing a faint manifestation of the Power Law.
They were just like terrifying primeval beasts contending, causing nearby mountains and rocks to gradually crumble. Hegel swung a fist, its terrifying force not only repelled Gael but also made the cave’s stone wall reveal spiderweb-like fissures over ten meters long.
The witch had given a direction, but Duncan was unwilling to follow it.
He wanted to see if he could slay the incarnate form of a demigod giant, as there were already spectators present.
——Great Frenzy.
Duncan roared furiously, the resulting shockwave blasted away nearby dust as he launched himself into the air over ten meters. Grandfather descended with thunderous force, striking the enemy like it was a steel plate. Although it inflicted damage, it did not critically harm the opponent.
A special ’armored skin’ state appeared on the enemy.
Fortunately, Hegel realized this. With a roar, he directly climbed onto the massive body of the enemy, using a combat skill similar to a bare choke. His sturdy legs wrapped around the enemy’s neck, then unleashed a heavy punch to the temple.
Duncan brandished Grandfather, tearing a one-meter long wound on the enemy. As the stone pillar swung, his figure demonstrated incredible agility by stepping onto its knee, then leaping a full 360 degrees to land. Upon landing on one knee, the rocks beneath Duncan’s feet shattered inch by inch, his agile figure launched like a hurricane, Grandfather cut a chilly sliver directly severing the enemy’s Achilles tendon.
At this moment, Hegel’s right hand formed a finger, suddenly plunging into the giant’s eye socket, forcefully gouging out the other eyeball.
The Barbarian Warrior’s combat techniques seek only to kill the enemy, close-quarters brawling with groin kicks and eye gouges are commonplace.
Boom!
The massive giant was laid down directly, Hegel roared loudly, his fists like shadows pounding successively, deforming the enemy’s skull.
"Its divine power almost resembles Spartan Fury, is it the power of combat divine position?"
Kod, God of Strength, possessed part of the combat domain.
At this moment, Duncan took up Grandfather in a jump slash, Hegel’s figure slightly retreated. Accompanied by a flash of bloodlight, the giant’s head ahead was chopped off directly, blood sprayed fiercely like a fountain.
Even though he seized the last kill.
But Duncan still lifted the giant hero’s head, handing it to the beast-like heavy-breathing, red-eyed Hegel before him. Hegel seemingly regained a touch of clarity, looking at Duncan with a bit of surprise, then turned to the other barbarians, raising the giant’s head with one hand, roaring: "Blood and Glory!"
Barbarians all around pounded their chests fervently, although cheering for Hegel, their gazes occasionally fell on Duncan half a step behind Hegel.
Now’s the time to let Hegel have his moment.
With the head in hand, everything else is negotiable.
Unbeknownst to him, a mark had appeared on the human form.
——"Gods’ Gaze: You have successfully gained the attention of the Furious Gods, the God of Strength is quite pleased with you. Further pleasing the Furious Gods might earn divine grace from them."
There were spectators.
Thus perform an exceptional duel, Duncan was adept at this.
Is there a chance to become dual protagonists?
By stepping aside in the final move to allow Hegel the spotlight, Duncan seemingly attracted a touch of attention from the Furious Gods.
