The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God - #248 - 248 Abyss Tide
“Did you finish the registration?” Lor asked, seeing the pillar lit up.
“Hmm.”
“How about I show you around?” Lor suggested.
He couldn’t help but feel goodwill toward this talented junior.
Even under the bombardment of people stronger than him, he still remained undeterred.
As for Skye, Lor was also interested.
Throughout all the exchanges earlier, her face didn’t change one bit, as if it were just the wind passing by.
“Sure, we also wanted to have a place to live,” Maximus nodded.
“Then let’s find a place for you to stay first,” Lor invited.
Walking around, Lor talked about various aspects of the Eternal Ruin Outpost.
“You may already know this, but the Eternal Ruin Outpost is a moving stronghold.”
“As we are in the most dangerous part of the abyss realm, we need to be constantly moving; otherwise, we will be ambushed by abyss monsters.”
“The abyss monsters we encounter here are a bit different from the usual.”
“Some of them have frightening intelligence; some have overwhelming strength; some multiply quickly; some can’t be killed, etc.”
“There are so many types of Abyss monsters here that an encyclopedia of abyss monsters was produced.”
“Thus, besides the normal classification of abyss monsters as cannon fodder, normal, elite, and lord,”
“Abyss monsters are also divided into three types: Elemental types, Physical types, and Special types.”
“Elemental types are abyss monsters possessing the power of elements, whether it be thunder, fire, earth, or even space and time.”
“As for physical types, they exhibit various body modifications beyond common sense.”
“Like the humongous abyss monster there—” Lor suddenly stopped as his eyes bulged.
“Damn, another attack?!” Lor cursed.
The humongous abyss monster, multiple times bigger than their stronghold, was running toward them.
“Is this normal?” Maximus asked with a smile.
He already knew about different types of abyss monsters.
He just let Lor talk to become familiar with the place.
What he didn’t expect was an aberrant-humongous type lord-level abyss monster came attacking just as they arrived.
“Not always, just once or twice a month,” Lor said helplessly.
As the junction within the source layer and purgatory layer, they encountered abyss monster attacks from time to time.
However, it seems that this time they were unlucky.
This was already the third time they were attacked this month.
“You two are unlucky; you encounter this abomination on your first day,” Lor sighed.
“Hahaha, isn’t it just a warm welcome?” Maximus smiled.
“Hehe, an aberrant lord-level monster, what a feast,” Skye on the side also smiled.
“Anyway, you two do your best to survive.”
Bang!
As soon as Lor said that, the aberrant lord-level monster banged into the stronghold barrier.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
The continuous banging was quickly depleting the magic crystal power supply.
However, it seems that the aberrant lord-level abyss monster knew it was futile and came with a new approach.
Instead of banging indiscriminately as it previously did.
It concentrated its strength into a single point and tried to open a small gap in the stronghold barrier.
“Ready!”
“Iron Squad, assemble!” Lor yelled.
Soon, the people who seemed to be squad members of Lor gathered together.
Meanwhile, Maximus and Skye also got ready and concentrated on the abyss monster.
The gigantic weapons on the wall also finish charging and lock the abyss monster.
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
Unfortunately, there was not much effect.
Although the giant weapons made multiple holes in the abyss monster, it recovered rapidly.
The abyss monster seems to be annoyed by the barrage, as it becomes more manic attacking the stronghold barrier.
Soon under its effort, it opened a small gap in the barrier.
The abyss monster then spread a tentacle-like part of its body and put it inside the gap.
Then, like sand, it disintegrated, forming thousands of abyss monsters.
This lord-level abyss monster is an aggregation of abyss monsters.
So, as soon as it broke through the barrier, it broke into pieces little by little, sending abyss monsters to cause destruction.
Soon, millions of tier 8 abyss monsters flooded the stronghold.
Fortunately, after the aberrant lord-level abyss monster broke into pieces, it was only cannon fodder rank.
Otherwise, with the millions of residents of the stronghold mostly tier 7, there would probably be a lot of casualties.
As the abyss monster came close to them, Maximus tried one of his special techniques.
“Ice bolt!”
Focusing his strength on a single point, the ice bolt blasted the tier 8 abyss monster into particles.
“What a nice ability.”
He just concentrated milliseconds of his mana, yet it achieved such an effect.
He wondered what would happen if he concentrated days or years of his mana and fired it up.
‘It should be able to kill an apex sovereign right?” he thought
However looking at the special physique who was recovering the power of law, he dismissed his thought.
“Let’s try the other physiques…” Maximus smiled joyfully as he found new toys.
He didn’t worry a bit that he was too high-profile.
Looking around him, who is not more high-profile at this moment?
Like Lor on his side, who eliminated thousands of abyss monsters just with just the shockwave of his fist.
Even that insane Yuso, that stupid muscle head plugged into the hole created by the abyss monsters, defending with just his body.
Even Dart looked casually as he and his squad fired thousands of projectiles every second, talking like it was a normal day.
There were also those with almost full control of law and special physique.
It seemed that the aberrant lord-level monster was just a warm-up for them.
Soon, Maximus and Skye also started to show off.
Maximus tried the newly copied domain and physique one after another.
Pile and pile of abyss monsters automatically came to him like good test subjects.
As for Skye, she didn’t have such concerns.
Like a wild Amazonian, she burst through the center of the abyss monsters like it was her home court.
Looking at the two newcomers easily going through the motions.
Lor and the others who just come back from Purgatory City were a little shocked.
“You kid, you’ve hidden a lot of strength,” Lor said, coming to him.
“It’s nothing.”
“As you said, this abyss monster is really like a warm welcome to you,” Lor shook his head and insisted.
“Also, your friend is a bit wild,” Lor added.
Skye didn’t have it as easy as Maximus; her body was already riddled with injuries.
Even with the Origin Domain potent with regeneration, it can’t keep up.
However, Skye’s fighting intent seemed to become higher and higher as time went on.
“It’s just a little battle maniac,” Maximus commented.
“Oh, it seems to be,” Lor also understood.
After all, many of them were also battle maniacs.
Unfortunately, it won’t be long before they die or are seriously injured and quit.
Among all, Yuso seemed to be the toughest battle maniac he knew.
Just seeing him almost challenge the aberrant lord-level monster on his own, Lor sighed.
“Just be careful; this is the first wave of attack,” Lor reminded and came back to his squad.
“I know…”
The millions of abyss monsters causing chaos in the city are just the first wave.
Otherwise, it can’t be called a lord-level monster at all.
Looking at it slowly peeling away the stronghold barrier for its own entry, Maximus knew the real fight would begin.
Roar!
The abyss monster roared excitedly as it got inside.
Although it was a little smaller earlier, it’s still a thousandth of the size of the stronghold.
Tier 7 and weaker tier 8 individuals, like muscle memory, escaped to a safe place.
Houses, buildings, and different structures were destroyed as the abyss monster attacked.
Soon, tens of thousands of tier 8 individuals with their own squads attacked the abyss monster in a relay.
Every movement of the abyss monster seemed to be predicted.
As the group of squads parried the attack, and another attacked various weak spots.
Although they looked like ants compared to the abyss monster.
The abyss monster was like a fish trapped in a net.
Maximus was on the sideline, watching the fight.
As it was his first day, his performance earlier should be enough.
He also dragged Skye, who still wanted to fight, beside him.
As the fight went on, Maximus frowned.
After a few hours, the aberrant lord-level abyss monster is still alive.
As it gets destroyed and regenerated, the abyss energy around seems like a bug helping the lord-level abyss monster continue to struggle.
It seems that he underestimated the danger of these monsters.
While the fight was going on, he always scanned and copied the domain and physique of most of the people in the stronghold.
Regarding this, he copied over twenty awakened physiques.
Reading these people’s statuses gave him an idea of how strong people here truly were.
There were hundreds of people here who had 99 percent control of their law.
Thousands had over 70 percent control of law.
As for the rest who were still fighting the Lord-level Abyss monster, it was not lower than thirty.
Yet a few hours passed, and the abyss monster still showed resistance.
Maximus estimated that if he singled out this abyss monster, although he would not lose, he would not defeat it either.
“Abyss realm is really not easy…”
