662: : When nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected always happens
Finally, the Saint Seiya were panting, their bodies weary, but looking at the world that had been swept clean, the Void Creatures had been completely annihilated by them!
“Hmph~ Hmph~ Is this the end?” Fick gasped, supporting himself with his hands on his knees, and looked around.
Indeed, there were no Void Creatures to be seen.
“It should be over, right? What do we do next?” asked the female Saint Seiya, Brittany.
“Next, we…” Before El could finish his sentence, they suddenly sensed something amiss.
The surrounding void energy was surging and becoming violent.
All the void energy slowly converged.
The Saint Seiya immediately faced a formidable foe; after all, this abnormal situation was clearly unusual.
The next moment, a massive mouth, filled with dozens of layers of sharp, dense teeth, emerged from the void, then swallowed all the void energy in one gulp.
Subsequently, the owner of this large mouth also fully revealed his form.
What kind of existence was this?
At least tens of meters in size, with two strong hind legs, four front limbs—the two foremost resembling mantis scythes, the two in the middle similar to spider legs—its body was covered in various sharp spines, and its entire body was protected by dark purple armor.
Moreover, it had four “external soul bones” on its back, also like spider legs.
Its head was a huge mouth full of layers of sharp teeth, and at the corners of its mouth were four intertwined, horn-like spikes extending outwards.
Its overall appearance was bizarre and terrifying, like an alien killing machine.
“What kind of monster is this?!” a Saint Seiya exclaimed in shock, looking at the Void Creature that had appeared from the void.
“Roar!” The Void Creature roared at the Saint Seiya, and then, void energy spread out in several continuous waves towards them.
“Be careful!” Fick shouted.
The Saint Seiya scattered, dodging the impact of the void energy.
Those who couldn't dodge immediately counterattacked with their Cosmo Power.
Boom!!!
The impact of the void energy literally scraped off a layer of The Ground.
“Charge!” Fick yelled, and everyone rushed towards the Void Creature from all directions.
“Bull Rush Fist!”
A Saint Seiya roared, concentrating Cosmo Power in his fist, and punched out, his body moving with the punch.
His fist was like a bull's horn, and a faint phantom of a bull's head appeared.
Boom!!!
The next moment, it struck the Void Creature like a streak of light.
Terrifying power slammed into the Void Creature, but the former was horrified to discover that his attack couldn't break through the thick armor on the Void Creature’s body!
It only cracked the surface!
The strength of this Void Creature far surpassed that of the previous Void Creatures!
What they didn't know was that this Void Creature wasn't one of the original Void Creatures; rather, it had been drawn by the constantly escaping void energy from the massive deaths of the previous Void Creatures.
Void Creatures are not only natural enemies of all worlds; they also devour each other, especially when there is no “food,” they will even treat their companions as food!
They only ever have one thought: to feed! And only one goal: to evolve!
This is what Void Creatures are!
Bang!
In a moment of distraction, the bone spear on the Void Creature's back swung violently, directly striking the Saint Seiya.
The terrifying force directly swept him away.
Ugh!
The Saint Seiya couldn't help but groan; the powerful force caused many cracks in his saint cloth, and even shattered a piece.
The other Saint Seiya also landed their attacks on the Void Creature.
The series of attacks seemed to enrage it.
The Void Creature launched a furious assault with the four bone spears on its back, its four hands, and even its large mouth.
It continuously attacked.
And it was accompanied by dense void energy.
If one were to be impaled, they would surely be heavily infused!
El did not use his [Flowing Light Flying Cloud Fist].
This move certainly looked cool, and it had enough attack counts, but… this move focused more on “frequency” and “speed.”
It was still useful for clearing minions or for area-of-effect attacks.
But to deal with such heavily armored units, if the defense is high enough and the single hit damage isn't enough… then it's a bit useless.
[Flowing Light Flying Cloud Fist] was like that; it had many hits, but the single hit damage wasn't high.
So he used another move, a saint cloth martial art that was also developed alongside [Flowing Light Flying Cloud Fist].
“Converging Light Flying Cloud Fist!” El roared.
Similar to [Flowing Light Flying Cloud Fist], [Converging Light Flying Cloud Fist] gathers “thousands” of punches into one force.
He was a transverser! He still had ideas!
Moreover, he could also draw inspiration from the Saint Seiya series!
And his move also drew inspiration from a certain skill that involved continuously stomping The Ground dozens of times at high speed to generate explosive reactive force for high-speed movement.
He reversed it, turning it into a punch.
This punch, when thrown, was like a pillar of light; the immense Cosmo Power gathered with this punch, fiercely striking the Void Creature.
Boom!!!
The terrifying force instantly shattered the armor on the Void Creature’s body.
A several-meter-wide crater collapsed on its massive body, revealing its dark purple flesh.
It looked very miserable, but in reality, it only shattered the opponent's armor.
In fact, the Void Creature hadn't even sustained much damage.
Boom!!!
The next moment, terrifying void energy erupted from the Void Creature, and the immense void energy continuously eroded the surroundings.
It launched a frenzied attack.
The Saint Seiya dodged one after another, relying on their high speed, small size, and high agility.
Dodging the Void Creature's purely instinctive attack methods was all too simple.
But they still couldn't avoid getting injured and hit.
This was unrelated to anything else; it was purely a numerical problem.
This was a pure stat monster.
………
At the same time, Holy Mountain.
Athena had initially sensed that the Saint Seiya had gone through a long battle, and although their aura was unstable, from her perception, it seemed they had finished.
There were no casualties.
Just as Athena breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly, the Saint Seiya's aura began to fluctuate wildly.
Upon closer sensing, Athena discovered that they had encountered a powerful enemy!
The number shouldn't be large, most likely only one or two.
But its strength was extremely terrifying! It was like clearing minions and then fighting a BOSS!
This made Athena couldn't help but consider the matter of the divine arrival.
Although the gods couldn't enter, the Saint Seiya could, and if the Saint Seiya could enter, then there were many things that could be manipulated.
As long as the ideology doesn't slip, there are always more solutions than difficulties!
