Chapter 702 The Kingdom's Defeat
As Zero and Carlos chased after Tartarus, Gorean and Freya immediately flanked Jek from the left and right. Even Father of Ultra adopted a fighting stance, holding the Ultra Dumbbell in his left hand and the Ultimate Holy Sword in his right, looking like he was going all out.
"Hunters often appear as prey, but... in any case, their roles are interchangeable... Were we just hunters, and now we've become the prey?"
Jek raised his eyes and glanced at the three Os present. His right hand subconsciously reached for the Furnace Ascension Device on his wrist, but after hesitating for a moment, he finally gave up.
Now is not the time. Since Carlos and Zero have returned to aid the Land of Light, it means that reinforcements are about to arrive... or have already arrived... For them... the situation is really not optimistic.
Great, now I can start thinking about how to escape without Tartarus.
What? You're asking what to do about Tartarus?
If you don't know or aren't familiar with it, don't get involved!
Anyway, he can come back to life after he dies, so why not take advantage of such a good target for taunting?
Dear Tartarus brother, we will remember your sacrifice for our safety. May you rest in peace in heaven... Amen.
“In that case, I should leave too…” With that, Jek pressed the Furnace Ascension Device on his left wrist, and a spatial vortex appeared behind him.
"stop!!"
"You've offended the Land of Light and you think you can just leave?!"
Seeing this, Freya's body instantly transformed into flame-like energy particles, attacking Jek. Gaolian, not to be outdone, stomped his feet on the ground, creating a thunderous roar like an earthquake, and unleashed a powerful punch at Jek.
Boom! Crack!
However, a pale blue barrier suddenly appeared, and although it was blasted with cracks, it steadily blocked the two's attacks.
"What?!" x2
"This is... a blue light defense barrier?!" Father of Ultra stared in shock. Hadn't all the mechanical equipment in the Land of Light been destroyed? How could a blue light defense barrier still be in Jek's hands?
"The biggest difference between higher and lower life forms is the ability to use tools effectively... Idiot." Jek coldly glanced at the three fathers of Ultra, appearing completely at ease throughout, before turning and disappearing into the spacetime vortex.
His furnace sublimation device wasn't simply left in the Science and Technology Bureau for the Land of Light to study; a considerable amount of experimental data and information were also stolen. Given the availability of readily available materials, it wouldn't be difficult for him to hastily create a barely usable blue light defense barrier and bring it over.
With a snap, the blue light defense barrier shattered, but the scene was already empty.
"Now is not the time to be hesitant. Hikari is still injured. Quickly take him to a safe place. Gorian, come with me! We have important things to do." Seeing that the situation was already settled, Father of Ultra made a decision immediately. He had Freya take Hikari away while calling Gorian to head towards Tartarus's landing point.
There are only two most important things now: First, stabilize the situation—this was destined the moment Carlos and Zero returned. Second, completely eliminate Tartarus, this huge problem, from here!
Bang!
A cold glint appeared, and a thunderclap jolted the senses. The icy light clashed with the ice axe, and in the sharp light, it reflected the equally sharp eyes of President Magma and Seven, though their temperaments differed.
The two forces retreated immediately upon contact. Before President Magma could even land and regain his footing, several incredibly sharp ultimate guillotine blades attacked from the side, aiming directly for President Magma's throat at a tricky angle. Along with them came a green Emerim slash.
Sensing the terrifying sharpness of the forbidden techniques from the Land of Light, Magma's lips twitched. Has the Land of Light really gone this far? In just this short fight, that frog-faced guy with the cleaver head has already used the forbidden Ultra Technique "Ling Lie" more than ten times, and each time it's a different one. Are you using forbidden techniques like a normal attack from a distance?
President Magma dared not face the sharp edge of the ultimate guillotine, yet was too lazy to dodge it. So what could he do?
It's you I choose! My turn! Draw a card! Defense descends!
President Magma reached out and pulled a Dark Ultraman puppet that was destroying buildings as the lucky audience member to bear the heavy burden of love for him.
In an instant, the Dark Ultra Puppet was split into the likeness of Shang Yang by the Ultimate Guillotine, and then cut away by Emerium and dissipated into the air, turning into nourishment for Mother Earth.
“Perfect cooperation, formidable combat power… truly an opponent I admire…” President Magma paid no attention to the life or death of a dark puppet, his eyes burning with fierce and sharp intensity as he stared intently at Seven and Ace, his gaze filled with fighting spirit.
He was not a brave and fierce person, but his pride made him yearn for duels with warriors he respected, and he was addicted to the experience.
"Hey!!" Just then, a powerful low roar came rushing over, followed by a huge leg burning with crimson flames falling from the sky and delivering a Leo flying kick to President Magma's face.
boom! !
President Magma hastily raised his sword to parry, but how could he possibly stop Leo's furious, charged attack?
President Magma felt a semi-trailer truck rushing towards him, and then he took off from the spot, did a 36,000-degree spin in the air, and gave Mother Earth a close embrace in a Thomas spiral acceleration.
"President Magma?! You actually showed up here!!" A silver cloak billowed in the wind, and a strong, slender, fiery red lion slowly landed. Leo looked at his father's killer, whom he had once slain, his eyes filled with anger and killing intent. Astra followed beside Leo, his gaze towards President Magma equally hostile, his iron fists clenched so tightly they made a cracking sound.
If it weren't for him, Father Lionheart Arus wouldn't have died, L77 wouldn't have perished, and my brothers wouldn't have suffered so much... All of this was caused by this culprit.
"Ah... King of L77, it's been many years. You have grown into a powerful and reliable warrior." President Magma scrambled to his feet, the damage from that kick was obvious. If his body hadn't been strengthened by the Absoluts, he probably would have died here.
Seeing the young man who was no match for him in the original timeline, yet ultimately defeated by sheer willpower and belief, President Magma gained a clear understanding of his own lost years for the first time. Then, the lingering desire in his eyes transformed into a fighting spirit, his gaze burning as he stared at Leo: "Then let's fight again! King of L77! Let me see the difference between us now!"
"President Magma, wasn't destroying my hometown and L77 enough back then?" Leo waved his hand, and the King of Osaka's cloak transformed into armbands on his arms. He and Astra assumed a fighting stance: "I could defeat you back then, and I can defeat you a second time!"
boom! ! !
Another deafening roar shook the entire Land of Light, shattering the tense atmosphere between the two sides. Everyone looked towards the direction from which the sound came from, where a massive mushroom cloud rose into the sky—the Ultimate Zero Arrow fired by Zero.
"That's... Zero?" Seven looked at the magnificent scene in the distance and finally breathed a sigh of relief. Zero's return meant that Carlos had also returned, and the situation in the Land of Light could be said to have completely stabilized.
President Magma had clearly considered this as well. He hesitated for a moment before suppressing the fighting spirit in his eyes and slowly retreating: "What a disappointment... In that case, let's continue next time. King of L77, remember to bring your sword next time. There is still a decisive battle between us that has not yet ended."
"Stop!" Just as Leo and Astra were about to give chase, the Dark Ultra Puppet and monsters surrounded them. By the time the two looked again, President Magma had already disappeared into the monster horde.
"Ah~!!"
Bang~!
Leo's right fist flashed red light as he smashed a monster's head into pieces with a single punch, but he was powerless to do anything about it and could only vent his anger on these monsters and Dark Ultra Puppet.
The situation was similar on the other battlefields. Bai Bei and Bai Tuo weren't stupid. When they saw the mushroom cloud rising into the sky, they realized the situation and immediately and cleanly left the battlefield, disappearing in a flash.
Only the unfortunate Dark Ultra Killer, because the battlefield was closer to Whitebeard and White Tor's, and he couldn't escape as quickly as the two. So, after the two old guys disappeared in a flash, Dark Ultra Killer was instantly subjected to a comprehensive and thorough "affectionate caress" by the remaining four Ultra Brothers, along with Seven 21, Powered, Great, and the veteran Ultras resurrected from the Ultra Key, such as Ludia, Zagi, Doru, and Galares, who arrived later to provide support.
Of all those who invaded the Land of Light, only Tartarus, a high-ranking member of the kingdom, remained within its borders.
