Chapter 1789 The One Who Controls Thunder, Wind, and Rain, and Upholds the Laws of This World
Upon witnessing the complete annihilation of the overseer, the surrounding crowd erupted into chaos. Several priest-like figures dressed in white robes collapsed to the ground, their faces deathly pale, pointing tremblingly at Marquis Voban:
"How dare you kill the overseer!"
"He's gone mad! He must be insane!"
"Everyone who is going to die will die!"
One of the older priests screamed hysterically:
"Do you even know what you've done?! The hunter has fallen, and divine retribution will surely come! This world will be destroyed because of you!"
Marquis Voban slowly turned his head, a hint of impatience flashing in his murky wolf eyes.
"Divine retribution? The destruction of the world?"
His voice was deep and cold, as if it came from the depths of hell.
next second.
"boom!"
His figure appeared instantly in front of the screaming priest, his right hand gripping the man's throat like an iron clamp, lifting him off the ground.
"I hate noisy ants the most."
Fingers tightened slightly.
"Click."
A crisp cracking sound rang out as the old priest's neck was crushed, his head drooping helplessly to one side; Marquis Voban casually tossed the body aside, sending it crashing like a rag against a distant stone wall, exploding into a cloud of blood mist.
The remaining people finally realized that death was imminent and fled in terror.
"run?"
Marquis Voban sneered, his figure flashing like a ghost.
"boom!"
With a single punch, the chest of a fleeing man collapsed instantly, his ribs piercing his back, and he flew dozens of meters like a cannonball, blood gushing from his body.
"Pfft!"
With a backhand chop, another person's head flew high into the air, blood gushing out like a fountain.
In an instant, everyone who witnessed the death of the "overseer" was turned into a mutilated corpse.
Marquis Voban stood in the middle of the pool of blood, flicking the blood off his hands, his eyes showing no emotion.
"God's punishment?"
He looked up at the gloomy sky, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"Then let it try."
Crimson flames erupted around him, burning away the bloodstains on the ground. In the distance, dark clouds began to gather, and the faint sound of thunder could be heard, as if some terrifying being was truly awakening.
But Marquis Voban simply stood there, his eyes gleaming with anticipation.
Come on, let this old man take a look.
Is this so-called "divine retribution" something like a "rebellious god"?
"Boom!!!"
Amidst the terrifying roar, the heavens and earth changed color in an instant, and everything trembled.
The once clear sky was swallowed up by dark thunderclouds in an instant. The thick clouds, like a boiling sea of ink, rolled and roared, dyeing the entire sky a dark, apocalyptic color.
A sudden gale arose, whipping up towering dust and sand. The mountains trembled in the howling hurricane, and the earth cracked under the invisible pressure.
"boom--!!!"
A blinding bolt of lightning struck down like a spear from the heavens, its blazing white light illuminating the entire wasteland; the lightning pillar pierced through the heavens and earth, and wherever it passed, space twisted and cracked, with countless fine black cracks spreading in the void, as if even the air itself could not withstand this power.
Marquis Voban stood in the center of the thunderstorm, his body surging with magical power, completely ignoring the lightning striking him; his hair danced wildly in the wind, his wolf eyes reflected the lightning, and a smile played on his lips.
"That's more like it..."
His voice was deep and excited, as if a long-lost hunter had finally encountered a beast worth hunting.
As the lightning dissipated, a figure stood suspended in mid-air above the scorched earth.
Her long, silvery-white hair cascaded down like a waterfall, each strand wrapped in fine lightning bolts that crackled in the air.
His face was so handsome that it seemed otherworldly, his skin as translucent as jade, and his eyes a cold, azure blue, as if frozen by millennia of ice.
A white robe fluttered in the wind, ancient lightning runes flowing across its hem, each line exuding an aura of destruction.
"I am the Overseer, Remiel."
His voice wasn't loud, but it resonated like thunder, each syllable causing the earth to tremble slightly.
Marquis Voban felt this power, nodded slightly, and showed a satisfied expression.
This guy is not bad.
Even among the immortal gods he hunted, he was considered powerful.
He is almost as strong as Odin.
If it were him, he would likely unleash some impressive power.
However, what interested Marquis Voban the most was that he did not sense this guy's presence in the aura he first felt when he arrived on this planet.
It only came into being after he killed the "overseer".
This planet seems to hold some secrets.
If "Remiel" exists, is there an even more powerful being hidden behind it?
His lips curled up uncontrollably as he deliberately controlled the magical power emanating from him, striving to rival the lightning.
What if he reveals too much power right from the start and scares away the "overseers" hidden in this world that he cannot find?
He made this mistake once on Earth, and he can't afford to make it again here.
"I am the one who wields thunder, gales, and rain, and who upholds the laws of this world."
"Blabulator, is it you who killed Reinhard?"
Remiel had no idea what Marquis Voban was thinking. His gaze fell on Marquis Voban, and he spoke in an icy tone, a hint of murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
Marquis Voban burst into laughter, his laughter filled with undisguised arrogance.
"That's right! I killed him!"
"What? You want to avenge him?"
Remiel's gaze grew colder as he slowly raised his right hand, palm up.
"Do not."
As the simple syllable faded, the thunderclouds in the sky suddenly froze for a moment, and then...
"Boom!!!"
Thousands of lightning bolts struck simultaneously! Each bolt contained the power to destroy a city, and they intertwined to form a net of destruction, completely covering the location of Marquis Voban!
The earth crumbled during the thunderstorm, rocks vaporized, air ionized, and blinding white light engulfed everything.
however.
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Marquis Voban laughed and opened his arms, as the ancient, dormant power within him suddenly awakened.
"【Raging Winds and Furious Waves】!"
In an instant, a hurricane-force field with a diameter of one kilometer erupted from him!
The lightning bolts struck by Remiel were twisted and dispersed on the outer layer of the hurricane, and the thick electric snakes were refracted into countless tiny electric arcs by the ice crystals, eventually disappearing into nothingness in the storm.
"Little tricks."
Remiel, high in the sky, shouted coldly, his hands suddenly clasped together in a triangular shape; Raven in the clouds instantly reformed, transforming into nine intertwined pillars of light that swooped down!
Marquis Voban raised his right hand, and the hurricane field suddenly expanded; he precisely controlled the pressure difference at different altitudes, creating dozens of miniature eyelets along the path that the Thunder Dragon was bound to take.
"Boom boom boom!!"
The nine lightning pillars collided with each other in the eye of the storm matrix, unleashing a deafening roar. The dissipated current was channeled into the ground, while Marquis Voban was propelled into the sky by the recoil!
"It's my turn!"
He spun violently in the air, and the hurricane instantly transformed into a towering tornado, engulfing tens of thousands of tons of debris, which, in their ultra-high-speed rotation, formed a projectile weapon comparable to a divine artifact.
Remiel's pupils contracted slightly, then emitted a dazzling light, and the rain clouds within a hundred miles instantly condensed, with countless raindrops forming a water curtain barrier in front of him.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The pebbles struck the water curtain with a crisp, metallic sound.
Suddenly, Marquis Voban burst out from the tornado, his right fist wrapped with a wind blade compressed to its limit!
"Pfft!"
The wind blade pierced through the water curtain, tearing a wound in Remiel's chest. Before the blood could even splatter, it was vaporized by the raging storm around him.
"you!!!"
Remiel was finally enraged. His silver hair suddenly stood on end, and the entire thundercloud began to collapse, condensing into a thunder spear in his palm.
But Marquis Voban had anticipated this, and his body vanished from the spot in an instant while simultaneously controlling the power of [Gale and Raging Waves].
All atmospheric movements within a 20-kilometer radius of him suddenly came to a standstill. Remiel was shocked to find that his connection with the celestial phenomena had been forcibly severed!
Although it didn't last long, his connection with the celestial phenomena was indeed severed.
But how could such a thing be possible?
He couldn't even affect the other party's gale, but the other party could affect him instead?
Does this mean that the other party has more power over wind and rain than he does?
But how is this possible?
He is the true god who commands thunder, wind, and rain! His power is bestowed upon him by the world.
"I hereby declare that all living beings are equal."
"Whether sinner or saint, mortal or hero, pure child or their mother, all are treated equally as food for the flame."
"Be amazed by the moment when the fiery inferno and the kingdom of fire were born!"
Marquis Voban raised his hands high to the sky, chanting the incantation of "The Punisher of Karmic Fire," but despite his loud chanting, he had only slightly depleted his internal magical power.
But even this small detail made Remiel feel as if he were facing hell.
A scarlet rift suddenly appeared above the clouds, and a fiery vortex with a diameter of one kilometer slowly took shape.
As soon as Remiel reconnected with the celestial phenomena, he felt a devastating heat coming from above.
He looked up and saw crimson flames breaking through the clouds!
"boom!!!"
The flames of judgment poured down like a celestial river, instantly vaporizing the entire thundercloud.
Remiel's hastily formed lightning shield was melted through the moment it came into contact with the flames, forcing him to teleport away as lightning.
But the Marquis of Voban’s offensive was not over yet.
He manipulated the hurricane to swirl the remaining flames of karmic fire into a fire tornado, while precisely calculating the landing point of Remiel's each teleportation. With every flash of lightning, a deadly trap of wind blades and fire rain awaited his opponent.
"Damn mortals!"
Remiel finally revealed himself in a disheveled state, his white robe mostly charred; lightning surged in his eyes, and his divine power began to operate at an accelerated frequency.
"Heavenly Punishment - Divine Decree!"
Suddenly, a sacred chant resounded between heaven and earth, and all the vaporized clouds re-condensed, transforming into a giant thunder sword that stretched across the sky!
A hint of amusement flashed in Marquis Voban's eyes. With a slight thought, he shrank the hurricane domain into an absolute defensive circle a hundred meters in size, and poured all the remaining flames of the karmic fire into it. The wind and fire intertwined to form a destructive barrier of red and blue.
"boom--!!!"
The moment the thunderous greatsword collided with the wind and fire barrier, the entire continent trembled!
The shockwave completely altered the landscape within a radius of hundreds of miles: mountains were leveled, rivers were dried up, and the sky displayed an eerie mix of red and blue.
As the light faded, a completely different scene unfolded on the scorched earth.
Marquis Voban stood proudly in the center of the crater, his body still wreathed in lingering magical energy, but otherwise unharmed, including his suit.
If it weren't for the residual curse power, probably no one would have guessed that he had just experienced such a huge collision.
Meanwhile, Remiel, high in the sky, had dull silver hair and his divine robes were tattered like cotton.
The glistening divine blood seeped from the seven orifices, leaving glaring red marks on the pale skin.
The most shocking sight was his right arm; the hand that was once wrapped in lightning was now charred black, and divine ashes were still falling from his fingertips.
"impossible"
Why are you completely unharmed?
For the first time, Remiel's voice trembled, his pupils contracted sharply, and he stared intently at Marquis Voban, as if he had just realized something, and said incredulously.
"Could it be that you've been holding back your strength all along?!"
Marquis Voban flicked his wrist indifferently, the joint cracking like popping beans.
"Are you finished?"
"Now that you've finished speaking, you should die."
As soon as he finished speaking, the storm that had just dissipated suddenly reformed behind Remiel!
Tens of thousands of wind blades tore at his divine body like a pack of wolves, each wind blade precisely cutting into the trajectory of the thunderous greatsword that had struck earlier, those already damaged body nodes!
"what!!!"
Remiel let out a painful roar, his body erupting with a final burst of lightning in an attempt to resist.
"Pfft!"
Amidst the lightning, a short sword shrouded in gray mist suddenly pierced through Remiel's chest, its tip carrying a drop of dazzling divine blood.
Marquis Voban had appeared before him without him noticing, and the short sword formed from the [Severing the Knot of Fate] pierced through Remiel's chest.
"I don't want to fight you again after you're resurrected."
"Disguise, once per opponent, is enough."
The next sentence was whispered in his ear by Marquis Voban. Remiel opened his mouth to say something, but Marquis Voban gripped his throat tightly, preventing him from speaking.
Gray mist surged wildly into his divine body through the wound, and Remiel was horrified to discover that his divine status was being eroded by some higher power!
"No"
"I am the agent of Heaven."
He struggled to raise his charred arm, trying to move Marquis Voban's arm away.
"Crack!"
Marquis Voban snapped his neck, and with a quick twist of his short sword, completely shattered the divine core!
Remiel's body suddenly stiffened, his silver hair turned gray inch by inch, and the lightning in his pupils flickered like a candle in the wind. In his last moments of consciousness, he heard Marquis Voban's devilish whisper:
"The Agent of Heaven?"
"I hope your authority will live up to this title."
"boom!!!"
Remiel's body exploded into countless specks of light, each speck swallowed by the gray mist. The thunderclouds that had shrouded the sky began to dissipate, and the long-awaited sunlight pierced through the gloom, falling upon the scorched earth.
Right now.
Marquis Voban's invisible [Godslayer Rank] suddenly trembled, emitting a faint, soft light. He could clearly feel a brand new power emerging in his body.
