Chapter 1130: The Mystery Behind The King Of The Depths
ВАААМ!
Maria was sent flying by the attack of the King of the Depths, the water around her constantly shook, trying to crush her with tremendous pressure, but she resisted it, using her own Divinity of the Sea to counter the King of the Depths oceanic pressure aura.
"Ugh, why are his scales so tough though?"
Mario wondered that as she analyzed him while she flew towards him, quickly realizing something she had not completely realized before, something that shook Maria to the core. [Maria! I've analyzed the scales already. Those aren't just the scales of a sea snake... They belong to Divine Sea Dragons!]
Those were Dragon Scales, Sea Dragon Scales, and not normal, but the Divine Kind!
The System's message quickly made Maria question what her foe truly was.
"He's a Divine Dragon?! But how could one look so hideous and monstrous, and be evil?"
At the beginning she had thought that he was some sort of monster, an abomination with great power, ancient and power.
But at the end... It was none of that, but a dragon?!
No, perhaps several dragons at the same time!
"That vision I had..." she wondered. "Could that have been a message from the Sea Dragons? To slay this monstrosity that is using their bodies?"
Maria couldn't completely tell right now, and she had no time to think much deeper either. She watched Emeraldine fire her explosive, divine spiritual arrows, which didn't even manage to make a wound on the monster's body.
Then, she saw Lucifer clash against him as he matched his size, but his body was constantly being gored by spear-like tail attacks and deadly claws and punches, if it wasn't for his
incredible regeneration, he would be dead right now.
Partner was constantly trying to find a weak point, or aim at the crystal, but she was being constantly caught and slammed away by the tremendous power of the King of the Depths' necks, which were like limbs of their own too.
Jonathan was parrying attacks with his giant holy made, barely managing to mitigate some damage, his powerful holy light sword techniques were dealing almost no damage either.
Meanwhile, Arachne and Nyx combined their strength, transforming into their Giant Arachneia and Divine Dragon forms, assisting Lucifer with everything they had. Only Arachne's attacks, the girl with the highest stats, was able to generate tiny cracks through the gigantic scales.
But that alone wouldn't be enough!
"KAHAHAHA! ALL YOUR ATTACKS ARE FUTILE! WE ARE THE ULTIMATE BEING! WE ARE THE GUARDIAN OF THE SEA; WE ARE THE KING OF THE DEPTHS! WE WILL NOT LET ANYBODY TAKE AWAY OUR DOMAIN!"
The King of the Depths roared ferociously with his seven heads, all of them opening and unleashing devastating dragon breaths of pure divine power, blasting through anything!
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Lucifer and the rest had to quickly evade, there was no way they could ever defend against such attacks, rapidly moving around, but the beams moved around, constantly being unleashed as the necks moved across the seas.
"STOP!"
Maria, with a furious roar, reached the King of the Depths, her scythe growing ten times as large, her maximum size, as her own size quickly grew up to a hundred meters.
"{Abyssal Black Death Void}!"
Maria harnessed the power of Death, Darkness, and Void within her scythe and swung it down against the King of the Depths, targeting the seven necks together. At the same time, an enormous black hole materialized and then grew into the size of a huge slashing wave.
SLAAASH!
The slash reached the King of the Depths, his draconic form quickly being pushed several meters away as an explosion of pure death, darkness, and void engulfed his necks, stopping his breath attacks.
BOOOMMM!!!
Abyssal Black Death Void was the strongest Divine Ability of her Anubis form, capable of piercing through most defenses and dealing up to two thousand percent more damage, which increased even more based on the amount of souls she imbued into her scythe, and she had imbued over a thousand.
"НАААНАНАН...!"
Yet the laughter of the King of the Depths reverberated across the sea, everyone's eyes widened as they saw the monstrous chimeric aberration's body only having received small wounds across its necks, they were not even bleeding, just resembling large cracks through their scales, nothing else.
"It didn't behead them?!" Lucifer muttered. "But that's one of Maria's strongest attacks!" The worst part was that she couldn't spam it, the cooldown was 1 minute, which had lowered to 40 seconds after the skill reached Level 3, but still, it was too much to wait!
"It looks like you're running out of tricks?" the King of the Depths smiled with his many jaws. "Was that your strongest attack, perhaps? It was rubbish. JUST LIKE ALL OF YOU SURFACE- DWELLING PESTS!"
With a crazed, maddening laughter, the King of the Depths harnessed his Divinity once more, materializing it into all of his claws, fists, and tails, and rushing towards them, swimming incredibly fast for its huge size! He pointed his countless limbs against them.
Maria knew he was strong enough he could tear everyone to shreds with just a few blows, the only one that could confront him head-on was perhaps her, Arachne, and maybe Lucifer if his healing factor as a Death Dragon was taken into consideration.
"Partner, Emeraldine, Nyx, stay behind and support us with everything you have, don't hold back! Arachne, Lucifer, Jonathan, behind me!"
"OKAY!"
"ALRIGHT!"
"VERY WELL!"
Arachne, Lucifer, and Jonathan unleashed all their latent powers as they rushed behind Maria, who quickly started to summon thousands of Undead, mostly all the sea monsters the King of the Depths had sent to the Aquarose Kingdom.
"Go, stop him at all costs! Distract him! As long as I am in this form, you can't die!" Maria commanded her Undead as her Aura spread like a fog underwater, the clear green and blue colored fog emanated an endless amount of necrotic essence everywhere.
[You have activated the {Demonic Abyssal Fog Cloud Of Death} Divine Ability!] [Summons a Cloud containing Chaos, Void, Death, Moonlight, and Demonic Elements swirling together, which will summon any Soul or Undead you possess and temporarily transform them into {Divine Tomb Guardians}, whose Stats will increase by +300%. Whenever an Undead dies, it can revive through the fog endlessly. You can use the Souls contained within it to further enchant your Undead as well as your own Stats, temporarily.]
This was one of the trump cards of the Anubis transformation, and Maria was going to abuse
it!
