Chapter 262: The Decimating Hero and the Jaws of Hell

Knowing his master, it was impossible to talk his way out of this battle. The only way was defeat and torture. Seeker could not afford to be questioned by the Realm King for too long.

He knew that if he had allowed the Realm King to take him and question him, it would be days and days after it happened. The Realm King would keep Seeker a prisoner and try to outdo what Seeker has built. In short, the Realm King won't ally with Seeker's armies.

The Realm King was so skeptical that even Seeker never heard of the fact that his master knew who the Lost Primordial was in his previous life. But now, Seeker deduced that his master was, in fact, one of the essential pieces set by the Progenitor.

With the Realm King's abilities, he could sense powerful entities' rough locations in this world. But because of the grim warning, the Lost Primordial left behind, and the orders to never seek each other out would make it hard for them to unite.

Slowly, Seeker was able to make a rough guess of what happened. Seeker joined the war roughly later when Charles had finally created the drugs to push normal humans to reach the impossible strengths of the Unlocking.

The Overcomers and the other Progenitors seeds were all entities that had a focused science left behind by the Progenitor. But as their science would be preserved into one body, it was impossible to pass it down to the another as the science belonged to a single person.

It must have been his master who immediately called and reached out to all of the Seeds and gathered them. Charles must have used various samples of these entities and created a drug that could turn a human to become Unlocked. And even though these only had a small chance of revealing who could be Unlocked, it allowed the rise of Ranked Heroes who replaced many of the Progenitors seeds who passed away when the Aragarian's first attacked.

But right now, Seeker was a very suspicious entity. He knew that to talk to the Realm King. He had to go to him unnoticed. If the Realm King sensed that Seeker or another Overcomer would be going to him, he would flee. If Seeker chased after the Realm King, he would not have succeeded.

For even in Seeker's future, the Realm King was known to be an "undefeatable" Overcomer. With his powers, it would have been impossible to get near him. With that in mind, Seeker crafted this plan to start a war and make a colossal distraction that would force the Realm King to undo his all-area sensing but focus on particular locations.

If Seeker were to be pushed and thrown far, far away, he would have to exert great effort just to get near the Realm King from his current location. And so Seeker immediately used three items that harnessed the powers of various Overcomers.

Desolation, Sound, and Lightning all appeared. The powerful desolation was placed on the back, and Seeker harnessed the two powers on the front to push the telekinetic powers.

It was clumsy and a very chaotic mess for an attack. The three powers' coordination was not efficient, and Seeker even had a lot of trouble containing all three. Nevertheless, Seeker moved and attacked with all three because it was the only attack he could do.

The sound was the pushing force that would deflect any telekinetic powers that might reject or redirect the attacks. The Realm King could alter energy blasts in the future, and Seeker guessed that his master must already have that ability.

So to combat that, Seeker created a large Wall of Jericho that pushed towards the Realm King. This was an offensive and defensive attack. Behind this wall is the Lightning that was ready to strike. And lastly, the desolation that Seeker created was divided into two. A portion of it enclosed the region behind the lightning and enclosed it. Another portion remained around Seeker and would be Seeker's shield to protect himself from the Realm of his Master.

As expected, the Realm King's expression changed as his entire Realm suffered from the desolation. The entire area around them was already part of his Realm. Lioncourt could feel the surroundings around them as if invisible, metaphysical hands and feet were there.

"Ouch." Lioncourt frowned. He immediately retracted his realm away from Seeker. The strange green powers could harm him and caused painful sensations on his extended 'arms.'

"Desolation that breaks the dimensions! How do you like the taste of that, Realm King?!" Seeker laughed as he drove his attacks towards Lioncourt. Sound and bolt compressed and created a large spiraling spear.

Lioncourt had a serious emotion and decided to meet the powerful attack with his powerful force. He took out a small capsule once more and placed it in his mouth.

Seeker identified what that item was. It was one source of energy that only a few Overcomers could harness. The Realm King had found a way of harnessing and compressing energy through his powers. And it is also by his powers that he could absorb that energy and convert it into energy. The pure compressed radiation that Lioncourt swallowed released all the potent energy, but the mini-reactor inside of Lioncourt quickly absorbed the energy.

The mini reactor was something that baffled scientists even in Seeker's future. This was because only a few Overcomers developed it. But this reactor became the reason why these Overcomers could maintain the heavy usage of energy. It was because of this energy field inside their bodies that the Chinese called the Dantian.

Lioncourt channeled the energy that could have blown up half of the city and released a small portion of it as a force that fought the approaching energies.

Seeker knew the name of this powerful psychic blast.

"Psychic Canon, eh?" Seeker muttered. He had seen this move countless of times in the future. It was a psychic attack that created a powerful explosive force.

A tremendous force that exceeded the force that many high-tiered explosive rockets could do was compressed and formed a spear that also rotated to counteract the spinning sound and lightning force.

BOOM!

An earth-shattering quake resounded all over the city with the force of these two clashing against each other.

A tremendous shockwave rocked outwards. But since the pair had fought several layers underground the selected factory, everyone else could only sense the powerful force vibrating out of the city.

To most, they only thought that a small earthquake occurred right in the middle of the city, but the Disciples and Git Godlike knew that it was something else.

Several members of Git Godlike couldn't help but glance at Misty Wedgers, who was the one who suggested to fight him on their first meeting.

Misty had a complicated expression as they continued to move at a very fast pace.

The soldiers were surprised and even began to move with more haste as they felt an earthquake. They feared that another explosion occurred somewhere within the city.

But Git Godlike had various tech sin their Exoskeleton. They could tell the size and power of that clash.

"We... We tried to fight that?" Paul Anthony cringed at the mere memory of his attack.

"This is the man who even Arthur respects and follows. We were really too arrogant." Cronus sighed.

The trembling throughout the city did not cease as the two powers that Seeker and Lioncourt sent out were forcibly pushing against each other. A loud rumbling sound that caused the entire factory to shake echoed out.

Lioncourt sneered as his force was directly moving closer and closer to Seeker. His control over the energy which he concentrated was just more superior to Seeker's. Seeker could control the sound, the lightning, and the desolation, but it was not as compressed and focused as Lioncourt's energies.

Seeker did not panic and expected him to lose in this bout. But his aim in this attack had met its purpose. He was able to gauge the power of the Realm King. And with that, he knew, his next attack could reach.

The boosters in his feet charged to full power as Seeker was preparing for a reckless charge.

The triune energy that he released was all compressed, and it gathered around the sword that Seeker extended. To the right of the sword was the white lightning, and to the left was the green desolation.

The sound energy was all compressed and was used to contain the power of the two. Seeker could not control all energy, so he used Richie's sound to help him contain the two rampaging energies.

And with a more focused and concentrated form, Seeker was able to remain standing as the psychic explosion passed through him. Seeker was like a small but sturdy and grounded rock that resisted the full force of a rushing river. He remained steady and concentrated on compressing the energy.

In addition to this, Seeker did his most powerful skill in the Surmounting series. Surmounting Strength and Surmounting Thought were small portions of his ability where he would forcibly use a large amount of energy to throw portions of his ability such as his strength, vitality, perception, and so on into the Ranked Hero stage. But now, Seeker did it to all.

Lioncourt felt a terrible premonition at the sight of Seeker's new form.

"I am the Seed of the Progenitor. I tread the Ancient's Path and within me is the truth of the Unlocking! These three energies are the powers of other Overcomers. So in a way, you're not fighting one guy, old man. Don't be embarrassed at losing at my blade! Decimating Hero: Form of Roaring Lightning!" Seeker grandly announced his form, which he knew would enrage the Realm King.

"Decimating Hero: Form of Roaring Lightning? How childish!" Lioncourt scoffed.

"It'll be quite a bummer that this childish form could kill you." Seeker taunted.

"Is this some kind of a game to you? You toyed with this city and even have the gull to make silly names for your attacks?"

"This isn't a game, Mister Lioncourt. I've already played the game and went to a game over." Seeker laughed.

Lioncourt's expression changed as he could not understand the words of the child.

What are you talking about? Oh, never mind. I'm wasting time again talking to a fool like you." Lioncourt raised his hands.

The rushing psychic attack disappeared. But then, Seeker could see through the dimensions and see that a swirling vortex of psychic energy was forming right in front of Lioncourt. Just like Seeker, Lioncourt began to compress the psychic energy around him to create the swirling vortex.

"What I'm saying is that I know you from the future! You are my master! How else could I learn your ability? Anyway, I know you won't believe me. And if I tried to block this attack, I would have been killed if I tried to fight that in my last playthrough!" Seeker smiled.

"That's an all-matter grinder. Am I right? I know this because this is one reason why no other Overcomer could claim that they could defeat you. Well, save for the Tyrant Empress and another."

Lioncourt's raised his eyebrow. Seeker was right.

"I'm guessing based on the size. You should have created about five hundred circular rings? Each ring would spin, and the next outer ring would spin on the opposite direction. And since you are using telekinesis, which reflects beyond the three dimensions, this attack crushes both the physical and the ethereal forces. Kind of like this triune attack I prepared!"

"Who are you?" For the first time, Lioncourt felt a sense of fear.

"Jaws of Hell. That's what I called it." Seeker ignored Lioncourt.

"Of course, you would chastise me if I would force you to shout that attack as they would do in games and anime. But luckily, this isn't just a game. No. This is a new game! This is a New Game+!" Seeker gripped the sword and blasted forward to meet the jaws of hell.

The Jaws of Hell began to spin with incredible speed. Sparks could even be seen appearing out of the invisible air.

Lioncourt roared as he sent the whirling vortex to meet Seeker.

But at the critical moment, Seeker changed the position of his boots and blasted off again but on reverse. A single inch later, and he would have fallen for the Jaws of Hell.

"Psyche!" Seeker taunted out and retreated.

The Realm king was confused at the sudden retreat and even the taunt. But then, he felt it.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

Five instantaneous attacks launched in different directions immediately occurred.
