Apocalypse Forecast

Chapter 1167: Chapter 893: Don’t Forget There’s Still the Dog

The collision between Seishui and the dagger happened in an instant.

There wasn’t even any loud noise.

Only a subtle sound like the bursting of a bubble.

Upon realizing the surprise attack wasn’t effective, both sides didn’t pour more strength, entering a stalemate instead.

Having witnessed the other’s speed again, they both understood the other’s tricky nature much better.

Whether it was the Extreme Intent · Symphony, which allowed effortless power exertion from any direction without blind spots, or the Nameless Oath, which could compress multiple powerful attacks into a brief moment, both were truly unpredictable techniques.

Missing a strike, if one does not change tactics and respond timely, the opponent will surely seize the opportunity for a swift and decisive breach.

Huai Shi retreated, opting for defense.

Meanwhile, Hercules’s figure had vanished from the spot.

Only a sharp wind sound arose at the back, but Hercules moved even faster than the wind.

With Hermes’s blessing, the dagger became increasingly swift, launching an offensive from the right rear without any gaps.

Huai Shi seemed to have eyes on the back of his head; the Sword of Virtue lifted, the heavy blade blocked the killing sword. But before he counterattacked, Hercules’s figure mysteriously flashed from the front.

In the instant his hands were too busy to defend, aimed at his face, the sword blade descended!

Huai Shi’s eyes widened, watching the sword blade inch closer.

Suddenly, he opened his mouth, gritted his teeth.

A metallic glow emerged between his teeth, the fire of the Axe of Anger blazed fiercely, and unflinchingly collided head-on with the dagger, roaring with the loudest steel clang since the battle began.

Hercules returned without success.

Huai Shi’s vision blackened, feeling his teeth might all fall out, but the Death Perception still loomed intensely in his mind. Instinctively, he raised his hand, and the Sword of Virtue slashed to the right side.

It felt like he was striking a speeding truck, an immense force erupted again, and instantly his fingers could hardly grip, the sword blade was dropped.

Yet Hercules didn’t stop.

He even accelerated!

Even a momentary gap didn’t exist, Hercules’s phantom reappeared behind Huai Shi, but this time... he simultaneously appeared in front of Huai Shi.

In mid-air!

With the real dagger in hand, simultaneously aimed at the critical points of Huai Shi’s back and head, slashing down!

This was the terrifying move that instantaneously decapitated all the Hydra heads, the true form of the Oath!

In a hurry, Huai Shi managed to reverse grip Seishui, turning with all his might to block the sword aimed at his back, but the blade towards his neck was already close at hand.

Having walked by the Sea often, the moment of capsizing finally came...

This was when he was about to be beheaded!

Amidst the approaching murderous intent, Huai Shi opened his mouth helplessly, but his loosened jaw could no longer grip any weapon against this strike.

But, it didn’t matter!

At least he could give his opponent a radiant smile, showing how delightful he was feeling at the moment...

Because before Huai Shi, behind Hercules, the dog also smiled.

This was his genuine counterattack!

How terrifying was the power of the legendary hero Hercules in full swing, even though Huai Shi hadn’t experienced it firsthand, he was already endlessly vigilant in his heart.

With the user’s status enhanced after completing the three-strike Oath, the limit naturally surged.

Four strikes? Five strikes? Six strikes?

Without experiencing it personally, who could know to what exaggerated extent Hercules could reach? Remember, the mythical Hydra had nine heads!

Opportunities must be created to restrain this move.

Preparations must be made specifically for this move.

At the same time, the opponent must fall into his calculations...

Thus, using himself as bait, when Hercules was closest to success, Huai Shi’s counterattack finally arrived!

Now, right below Hercules in mid-air.

——Incarnation of Pain · Behemoth, opened its mouth.

The light of flames surpassing the furnace’s temperature gleamed from its throat, molten steel surged forth!

Uncaring that Huai Shi was also within the attack range, the melted steel steam transformed into sweeping molten flow under terrifying heat, rapidly expanding and spreading, covering the entire region!

For Huai Shi, it was entirely like a gentle breeze.

Manipulating the source substance transformation of the same origin, converting the steel steam back into source substance, meanwhile retrieving the high temperatures with the Casting Furnace, was practically mana replenishment in disguise!

But for Hercules, it was nothing short of a White Phosphorus Incendiary Bomb dropped by a fighter jet, even worse than that. The reapplied metal steam component by Huai Shi was already vastly different. Its burning temperature surpassed White Phosphorus, and its adhesiveness far exceeded any strong adhesive.

Especially the source material transformation attached to it, combined with the power of the Axe of Anger.

Once sprayed by it, Hercules’s combat capability would likely need to sustain a blazing state.

But Hercules’s response was beyond what Huai Shi could imagine.

Even in a full-force strike, he could instantly change tactics, then, the falling trend in the air abruptly transformed into a roll with a twist of his body.

Agilely scraping past the edge of the fiery molten flow.

Only a huge clang of metal rang out from thin air.

Before hitting the ground, Hercules’ forehead suddenly trembled, a crack appeared on his helmet, and then the dagger in his hand swung repeatedly, as if fighting an invisible weapon.

He almost fell to the ground.

Because, indeed, an invisible hammer was fiercely pounding on his skull, continuously emerging from the void with Behemoth’s gaze, smashing down, making him fully feel the weight of this pain!

But before he could stand firm, blazing flames lit up behind him.

The flaming bull, clad in heavy armor, was already prepared there, lowered its head, spewing fire from its mouth and nostrils, roaring and rushing forward!

Yu Step Shock!

The ruthless axe chop, carrying its own terrifying mass, formed a dreadful impact sufficient to pierce through steel, causing the Hercules who had just landed to be sent flying backwards.

In mid-air, Hercules opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood-tinged spittle, suddenly flipping over and landing on the ground. Immediately, it was as if a torrential rain had come, leaving hundreds of piercing marks upon the surrounding ground, from which countless flowers and plants grew, under the gaze of the White Deer.

The dagger and the sharp antlers of the White Deer collided for an instant, and the flaming giant bull was already beside Hercules.

When Huai Shi waved, a vast swarm of crows appeared from the shadows, hovering in the sky, the sharp blades of grudge stalking his every flaw and weakness.

Hercules roared mightily, the armor from the Fire God flared with brilliance, suddenly shaking off the armed incarnations entangled around him, finally creating distance.

"Apologies."

And there, Huai Shi finally caught his breath and smiled at him: "As a Great Priestess, it’s quite reasonable to carry my own swarm, right?"

If it were an ordinary opponent, by now, they would probably be enraged beyond words, wouldn’t they?

They would probably go mad, or cower in fear, or their expression would turn gloomy, silent.

But when Hercules raised his head, what he revealed was...a delighted smile!

"Quite reasonable, Huai Shi, very good!"

He nodded, sincerely admiringly his opponent, without any reservation: "This power is indeed astonishing. As expected of a powerful incarnation, even though I was long aware, only by experiencing it personally can one truly feel its dread."

Huai Shi was slightly bewildered in his heart, but then saw Hercules’ increasingly cheerful expression.

"Originally, I was worried about the victory being unworthy—"

With his words, from the void came a roaring outburst, like...a cavalry charge!

The sacred light descended from the sky.

Transformed into countless gigantic and sinister warhorses!

Not sure what kind of swarm bloodline they inherited, their muscles were exceptionally developed, their bodies emitted a faint black mist, like flames.

And in their mouths, their teeth are stained with a bloody hue, sharp as blades.

Countless hell swarms descended here, following Hercules’ will!

Huai Shi felt a chill.

—Miracle Imprint · Heaven Queen’s Horse Herd!

That was one of Hercules’ twelve labors, where he subdued the mad King’s man-eating horse herd cultivated with all national strength, and presented this substantial gift to Heaven Queen Hera.

After receiving Hera’s blessing and grace, the transformed hell swarm had turned into war machines without equal.

Even without a tamer, relying on their sharp teeth, hardened iron hooves, and terrifying speed, they rampaged through the battlefield.

But it wasn’t over yet, Hercules raised his hand, striking the relic in his hand like a bronze gong, causing a piercing shriek to burst forth, sending Huai Shi into a daze.

Immediately, the sound of countless wings flapping echoed from the sky, shadows covering the sky appeared from the other side of the sky, and huge strange birds resembling pterosaurs with odd wing films swooped down, directly targeting the rising swarm of crows.

Finally, he took off the cloak he was wearing.

The resplendent cloak, as dazzling as gold, fell to the ground and began to roll on its own, swiftly expanding and transforming into a golden giant lion over ten meters tall, with sharp claws and teeth, its edges formidable.

It challenged the grinning Behemoth!

As if, the scenes from myths were reenacted.

Diomedes’ man-eating horse herd, the strange bird tamed by Athena’s gong, Nemea Giant Lion...then, there were deer covered with cold moonlight, soaking in red and dyed with blood; the Tricka Bull from the Sea God...

With the blessing of gods or outright as incarnations of miracles, the Owners of the Great Mob unveiled here, battling against Huai Shi’s great mob.

The tragic yet magnificent scene caused Huai Shi to inhale deeply.

Couldn’t even suck in warmth...

He suddenly felt a bit afraid.

"You wouldn’t whistle and call out the Hydra too, would you?"

Hercules shrugged helplessly, "I indeed once considered that, but the child seems a bit afraid of me, always unwilling to help..."

"Then... Cerberus?"

"That’s Pluto’s pet, Huai Shi," Hercules answered seriously, "how could it possibly obey my command?"

Even without the three-headed dog, this is already ridiculously outlandish, isn’t it!

Is this the greatest hero of Greece?

Huai Shi’s scalp began to tingle.

For the first time, realizing that even gathering people couldn’t compare to the adversary, felt a blow to his worldview!

Who between us is really the Great Priestess?
