Chapter 422: The Second Form of the Pot of Greed — Two People Trying to Show Off

As everyone changed their fighting tactics, the Pot of Greed obviously began to panic.

No matter how many more tentacles he brought out, it was useless.

Because if Alice and the others couldn't win, they would choose to flee.

Although the tentacles were fast enough, if they focused entirely on escaping, tentacles with a maximum length of three thousand meters couldn't catch up at all.

One-Eyed Owl couldn't help but praise at this moment, "That whoever, the Goddess of War and Wisdom really isn't called that for nothing!"

"Indeed, now the situation has reversed, who wins and who loses is uncertain! Haha!"

Luo Ai'er also said with emotion.

Previously they all looked down on Athena.

Now, they very much agreed with her decisions.

Hearing this, Athena couldn't help but show a proud smile, "I'm not called 'that whoever', my name is Athena, Paris Athena! Goddess of War, Goddess of Wisdom, and also Virgin Goddess!"

At this moment she finally felt like she had stood up, gained recognition, and would begin a brand new legendary life!

Anyway, it was better than following Zeus and being scolded and blamed every day.

"Pfft, Virgin Goddess? You're over ten thousand years old, right? Still a virgin? Oh my god!"

One-Eyed Owl couldn't help but mockingly laugh.

This was the difference between how you see yourself and how others see you.

Athena thought she had just shown off successfully.

She never expected that this was what others would care about!

Immediately her face flushed red with girlish shyness, "Don't go too far! Whether I am or not is none of your business, this proves I am sacred and pure! Transcending the mundane and worldly! A truly spotless deity!"

"Tch..."

One-Eyed Owl just rolled her eyes.

Virgin or not, she definitely had no interest.

Instead, Georgia, Osius and others had their eyes light up.

Just hearing those words made their blood boil.

Georgia rubbed his hands saying, "Brother Tian doesn't seem interested in her, is my spring coming? I'll definitely go all out to pursue her!"

"Kekeke, I won't be merciful either, such a good thing... just thinking about it makes me want to take off!"

Osius chimed in.

At this time.

The Pot of Greed's expression twisted ferociously, "Damn it, if this pulling continues, my tentacle losses will be severe, looks like I need to end this battle!"

"Oh? Are you going to activate the second form, my lord?"

Zeus asked gently upon hearing this.

He had also witnessed the second form ten thousand years ago.

That form had directly crushed and killed Phoenix, the Sun Hall God King.

At that time Phoenix was the only top-tier God King.

The Pot of Greed didn't answer, but frantically retracted all his tentacles.

Conducting a flesh catastrophe inside his body!

The tentacles were growing palms and fingers! Until they completely became like arms!

"What's going on? Did that guy give up?"

One-Eyed Owl said in surprise.

Suddenly all the tentacles disappeared.

Only the huge teapot head remained in the distant sky.

After staring for a moment, everyone hurriedly averted their gaze, because of the heretical passive effect - looking any longer would cause sanity loss.

Of course tentacles were fine, you could look at them as long as you wanted.

Athena frowned tightly, saying warily, "Be careful, that guy is about to activate his second form!"

At the same time, Luo Ai'er also prepared herself.

She still had vivid memories of the second form's power!

She could never forget that force that killed Phoenix.

The Pot of Greed's eyes were cold as he laughed strangely, "Kekeke, prepare to die!"

"Swish swish swish!"

The next second!

All the retracted tentacles began surging out frantically!

But strangely, what emerged weren't tentacles but human hands!

Even with joints!

Covered in foul-smelling mucus, swaying in the air, incredibly creepy!

Most importantly.

At the ends of these thousand-plus arms, they held various weapons and magic tools!

The weakest were at least Radiant Sun level, the strongest even exceeded God-Slaying level!

These were the Pot of Greed's collections over tens of thousands of years, including native weapons from the heretical world as well as weapons from other planes.

"What the hell is that thing!"

One-Eyed Owl said with a disgusted expression, feeling very nauseated!

It made people extremely uncomfortable both psychologically and physically.

Alice looked warily at those strange magic tools, "Everyone be careful, this should be the second form we talked about, watch out for that magic tool that exceeds God-Slaying level!"

Among the dense mass of arms.

At the topmost position, there was a strange statue carried by ten arms.

It resembled the Easter Island giant statues somewhat.

Carved with unseen runes, it pulsed with faint light regularly.

This was that equipment that exceeded God-Slaying level.

It was a magic tool left behind after the Black Goat Mother God killed a strong being from a higher plane, seized by the Pot of Greed.

This allowed him to advance to become the second strongest evil god.

This statue was called the 'Petrification Totem'.

Actually the strongest part was the pair of pale white eyes on the statue - if illuminated at close range, one would be briefly petrified.

Petrification duration depended on strength - particularly strong ones would be petrified for at most a few seconds, weak ones for several hours or days.

Those too weak would probably be petrified forever.

This was far stronger than Olympus's lower deity 'Medusa'.

Medusa's eyes required close-range eye contact for one second.

At most it could petrify people through information gaps.

This petrification eye from a higher plane was different - it had area effect and didn't require eye contact.

Luo Ai'er instructed everyone at this moment, "Just as we said before, be careful of the totem statue's eyes!"

At about five meters distance, the user could inject magic power to activate the petrification eye.

Everything within range would be petrified.

It could be said to be extremely powerful.

Even God Kings would be petrified for days.

Meaning once illuminated, death was certain!

So it was called a weapon exceeding God-Slaying level - this wasn't just capable of killing gods, but killing them casually!

Besides this.

There were many other very powerful weapons.

The Dragon Slayer Sword, forged by the strongest craftsman in the heretical world, contained the soul of a heretical disaster source dragon.

Each basic attack had a range of one thousand meters.

It carried disaster source black flames - if burned, magic power would be continuously absorbed unless you quickly exhausted your own magic power, otherwise the flames wouldn't extinguish.

There was also the Sun Longbow, which could shoot attacks with huge explosion ranges without needing arrows.

Equivalent to casting explosion magic.

But it wouldn't consume magic power, and attack speed could reach ten arrows per second.

Also very formidable.

This was also one of Phoenix's former weapons.

Others included ray weapons, firearm weapons and more.

In an instant!

The entire area outside the bunker directly became a battlefield covered by firepower!

The intensity was comparable to the bunker defense battle back then!

But such an attack scene was all caused by the Pot of Greed alone, suffocating!

Various attack methods suppressed everyone so they could be described as scurrying with heads covered.

The firepower was simply too intense!

The explosion flames were even more brilliant and blinding.

"Rumble!!!"

In the middle of the explosions, Alice and others couldn't even see each other's positions!

Even just ten meters apart, it was as if they were in two different worlds.

Suddenly a blade wrapped in black flames slashed toward Alice!

As a member of the half-weapon race, she had awakened some abilities unique to the weapon race - abilities that didn't need to be learned.

'Attack Premonition'!

Any weapon attack could be sensed to some extent.

Alice immediately leaped up like a swallow, dodging that terrifying attack.

And seeing the opening, she prepared to sever the Pot of Greed's arm and forcibly store this weapon in her spatial ring.

In some sense, this counted as disarming.

Of course, these spatial rings were all enhanced, otherwise when forcibly storing others' weapons, the weapon imprints would instantly destroy the ring.

Just when Alice thought she had succeeded.

Through the blinding flames of war, intense danger was rapidly approaching!

The Petrification Totem!

The arm holding the Dragon Slayer Sword was deliberately showing an opening to lure Alice into attacking.

Then the Petrification Totem could hit its mark.

The Pot of Greed was currently observing Alice's movements closely through eyes on his tentacle arms.

He couldn't help but laugh triumphantly, "The most troublesome one, I'll fuse you into the strongest tentacle!"

In the previous phase, even using full power he couldn't kill the isolated Alice, couldn't even injure her.

This made the Pot of Greed maintain wariness toward Alice.

So he planned to take her out first.

"Really, remember to be more careful next time! In battles of this level, no one would be stupid enough to show such obvious openings!"

The Darkin's impatient voice rang out.

He was reluctant to let Alice die like this.

Otherwise, he would also lose value and be killed by Lin Tian.

"Swish!"

Immediately the Darkin rapidly enveloped Alice's entire body like venom.

In that instant, a small tuft of hair didn't make it in time and was hit by the petrification eye's light attack.

And that small tuft of hair cracked and fell like stone.

As for the Darkin, he was also petrified, but he had left a section of his body in the sword blade - he just needed to abandon the petrified body.

He could recover by reabsorbing flesh and blood.

Alice exerted slight force to break through the petrified Darkin on her body.

Then taking advantage of the petrification eye's temporary inability to activate a second time.

She prepared to seize it directly!

After the Pot of Greed's miss, he was only briefly angry, then suddenly thought of something - he just needed to lure Alice into the tentacle encirclement, and killing her would be much easier.

He quickly began retracting the arms holding the petrification eye.

Alice chased for just a few steps before stopping - having learned from the previous lesson, she would naturally be more cautious.

If she chased in, death would be certain!

Just being surrounded by tentacles was already nearly impossible to handle.

These were tentacles holding numerous weapons.

She would definitely be blasted to pieces.

Seeing that Alice didn't take the bait, the Pot of Greed wasn't anxious either, saying disappointedly, "Tch, then I'll play with you all a bit more..."

So many weapons were completely sufficient to kill everyone through firepower suppression.

After all, he had hundreds of millions of heretical armies within his body, and could use their flesh and blood to replenish his magic power at any time.

This was why he was the second most powerful evil god in the heretical world!

The Headhunter, the Forbidden Death God, the Smiling Angel.

None of them could match his versatility.

Regardless of whether the opponents were many or few, he could suppress them with absolute strength.

This was truly an unsolvable ability, a tremendously powerful and heaven-defying ability.

Unless you had stronger power, death was inevitable, with no way out.

As expected.

Soon everyone began to struggle.

They could only resort to hit-and-run tactics again.

"Everyone listen to my command!

Although we are scattered and cannot see each other, we just need to flee forward!"

Athena's voice rang out again.

She continued, "This situation is more favorable for us! Everyone scatter and flee separately. His tentacles have a maximum range of three thousand meters, so he can't pursue all of us simultaneously!"

Everyone who heard the voice immediately followed her instructions!

They even felt it made sense and could catch their breath.

But the Pot of Greed wasn't a fool either. With a sinister laugh, he said, "Keh keh keh, want to play this game with me again? Smart people don't fall twice!"

As he spoke, he locked his evil gaze on the fleeing Georgia and Osius!

They were running the slowest.

The second-stage Pot of Greed had acceleration magical tools.

He could completely catch up.

Once he caught up, he wouldn't fear the others not coming.

Because if the others didn't come to help attract firepower and disperse the attacks, with Georgia and Osius's abilities.

Death was certain!

"This is bad!"

Osius, who was fleeing, felt his heart tremble, and the hair on his back stood on end!

The sense of death's terror was rapidly approaching!

Pairs of giant arms surged toward him like hungry wolves pouncing on food.

Georgia prepared to directly transform into a Titan giant for a desperate fight.

Osius quickly said, "Don't! That would just be a sitting target, you'd be instantly beaten to pulp!"

Although the five-thousand-meter body size had overwhelming advantages before.

But now, that would be a convenient path to heaven.

"At least our deaths can provide tolerance for everyone, reminding them not to flee alone like this anymore!"

Osius gritted his teeth, his eyes shining with firm determination!

Because if everyone rushed in to rescue them in this situation, the death risk would be far too high.

Especially that person, who would definitely charge in mindlessly.

That was One-Eyed Owl.

Previously in the Dragon Slayer Guild town, she had risked everything for everyone and was nearly beaten to death.

They didn't want to see One-Eyed Owl bear such great risk again because of this.

Georgia's expression paused slightly, then she smiled with relief, "You kid, you really pulled off this act! Fine, then I'll act along with you!"

She was originally a madman, someone no different from the dead.

Doing such things was all too normal for her.

One-Eyed Owl, who had already fled to a safe area in the distance, clenched her fists and immediately charged up a third-level compression!

It wasn't enough!

Even after already reaching third-level compression, she was still forcibly adding pressure with her own strength!

The armor on her body continuously emitted scorching steam!

Making mechanical collision and distortion humming sounds!

"You two guys, don't die so quickly!"

"Sizzle sizzle sizzle!!!"

"BOOM!!!"

Instantly!

One-Eyed Owl shot forth, producing a thunderous roar!

The space behind her violently shook! Like water waves!

Cloud layers within a hundred-mile range were directly scattered!

At this moment, One-Eyed Owl's speed even made Zeus somewhat astonished! This was the fastest speed he had seen besides his own!

"This madwoman! Still carrying that god-slaying level axe, like a meat grinder!"

Zeus couldn't help but say in shock, his eyes widening.

Because wherever One-Eyed Owl passed, space seemed about to be torn apart!

The moment she contacted the Pot of Greed's arms, blood splattered!

They were severed on the spot!

And because the speed was too fast, the Pot of Greed couldn't even retract his tentacles!

He immediately had over a hundred arms brutally severed!

This wasn't even the important part - weapons were dropped!

When everyone rushed over, they immediately picked them all up.

"Big sister! Wuu wuu wuu! I really thought I was going to die!"

"Phew... saved by you again. By the way, are you alright!?"

Osius and Georgia both said with relief.

Just now, those hands had already surrounded them, and weapon attacks had begun charging up.

There was absolutely no way to avoid them.

One-Eyed Owl was breathing heavily, forcibly maintaining composure as she said, "I'm fine. You two idiots, if anyone's going to show off, I get to go first, understand!"

However, that level of pressure.

Under the armor.

Her seven orifices were bleeding, and all her bones were shattered!!

Fortunately, the armor had built-in significant pain immunity and injury recovery.

Otherwise, she would have already fainted from the pain.
