Omega Summoner

Chapter 1549: The God Shesmu is Defeated?

”As expected, the body of the Avatar of Shesmu is already starting to deteriorate.” Adrian muttered as he is actually invisible due to his skill called Universal Threat from the scythe armament.

Adrian immediately activated the Universal Threat skill when he summoned the five Anubis Warriors. He knew that he would be a big target if all five are summoned because if he dies then the summoned beings would be sent back to their own realm. He already lucked out by summoning five of them when he should only be able to summon one.

He also became invisible to see what the status of the God Shesmu is. He also did it to see if a godlike being could see through his armament skill and he is extremely pleased that the God Shesmu could not see nor sense him. The skill is literally a Universal Threat because even gods that descend cannot detect his presence.

Adrian also took note on how the Anubis Warriors fought because they fight better than his guild members. He is suddenly brought to the idea of having his guild members in Limbo. Somewhere in the world, a cold creeping feeling suddenly crept up on the members of the Pantheon guild which jolted them awake.

The Anubis Warriors made use of such fluid and structured attack patterns, but it is also unpredictable as well. If the Sword Anubis starts the attack, the Spear Anubis will follow it up with an attack from the back which is difficult to evade. The God Shesmu must either parry the sword or evade backwards to dodge but his back is also a danger zone due to the spear.

One might think that the sides would be a better way to dodge but that is also not a good way. Swords have a wide swing range as it could easily be shifted in motion if the wielder is incredibly skilled. The Scimitar Anubis is also guarding the sides as well since curved blades are better at redirection.

The other open side would be an easy way for the Mage Anubis to direct spells. In the end, the defense of any enemy that is fighting a squadron of Anubis Warriors is already deemed useless. The only way to defend against them would be to overpower one of them. The God Shesmu would have been able to do so if he was still at peak power.

The God Shesmu could already feel that his avatarʼs body is starting to break down. He also used almost all of the sacrificial energy given to him by his followers. He could no longer slow the deterioration of the Lebouʼs body as even his divine energy is starting to get diffused. He has spent too much time in the mortal realm.

The number of followers that sacrificed their lives for the God Shesmu to descend was less than a hundred. The Distorted God Apophis needed hundreds of thousands of lives in order to descend for a week. A hundred sacrifices could at most by a god of Shesmuʼs power about a few hours. This is also dependent on the situation of the God Shesmu not using divine energy.

The God Shesmu might not want to admit it, but he was already losing his grip on Lebouʼs body. He is also weakening as a result of using the forbidden spell that the Distorted God Apophis thought him. The law that the Gods of Pandemonium applied is starting to weigh down on the God Shesmu as his body movements became sluggish.

The God Shesmu could still repel the five Anubis Warriors but that is all he could do. He can no longer use large and powerful spells because that would spell his doom. The God Shesmu might not want to retreat as he is a proud god of blood and slaughter, but his avatar would die if he does not.

The God Shesmu suddenly roared out loud as a red aura shockwave is emitted. All the Anubis Warriors were knocked back as a result of the attack but that bought enough time for the God Shesmu to plan his escape. The God Shesmu immediately used all the divine energy that he could to enhance his hostʼs body.

”I see a way of escape.” The God Shesmu thought as he was about to leave the area and escape.

He did not care about the Followers of Apophis as all that were left in the area are just mindless serpent humanoids that were mind-controlled by the Distorted God Apophis. All of his followers in the area are already dead which means he no longer has any important being here except for Lebou.

”Peekaboo!” Adrian suddenly stated as he immediately slashed at the God Shesmuʼs body.

Adrian applied Chrono Shift on his body to make it faster while he applied Chrono Lag on the God Shesmu. Even if the debuff was effective against the God Shesmu, the body of a god is still faster than any mortal even if he is just possessing it. The scythe that was aimed at the neck was dodged but the God Shesmu could not control the body perfectly.

”Argh!” The God Shesmu screamed as his left arm that was raised reflexively was cleanly cut off.

The left arm that still has the divine energy of a god crashed to the ground, but it did not reach the sands. Awraka suddenly appeared from the shadow realm and grabbed the arm as per Adrianʼs instructions. She then descended back to the shadow realm so that the God Shesmu will not be able to retrieve it.

The God Shesmu looked at Adrian with great anger, but he prioritized his survival before the missing left arm. With all the remaining divine energy he could muster, the God Shesmu exploded with a red shockwave that knocked back Adrian several meters away along with the others that wanted to kill the god.

The Five Anubis Warriors also tried to follow the God Shesmu to finish him off or rather his mortal avatar, but they were unable to. The Five Anubis Warriors could not match the speed at which the God Shesmu fled but they were also unable to get away from Adrian that much. Adrian was still their summoner which means they are dependent on his presence in order to manifest.

Instead of following the fleeing god, the five Anubis Warriors cleaned up the remaining Followers of Apophis and the monsters that flooded to them. Adrian did not want to pursue the God Shesmu as well because he has far more important matters to attend to at the moment.

Adrian descended to the ground where the numerous corpses of monsters and Followers of Apophis could be seen. The smiles of success and exhaustion of the players could be seen. Some players still died but they did not get another death penalty. Those that survived managed to recover 50% of their lost experience points when they died earlier.

”The arm and the barrier stone, guild master.” Awraka stated as she rose from the shadows.

”Great job. Please assist the others on getting their loots and also in making sure that I am not bothered.” Adrian stated as he took the barrier stone and the left arm that he cut from the God Shesmu.

Adrian then controlled the left arm and the barrier stone via his gravity manipulation. Adrian held out his hand and suddenly curled it up into a ball. The moment he curled up his hand, the left arm that he decapitated was crushed into blood and guts. The blood that contained the energy of the Distorted God Apophis due to the God Shesmuʼs connection with it.

The barrier stone that has faded runes suddenly stopped glowing and turned to dust. Numerous lights suddenly appeared on the battlefield which made the players gathering their loot stop what they were doing. The players thought that the lights were pretty but soon learn the sad truth of such beautiful lights as the laughter of children echoed in the area.

”What is happening?” One of the players asked another as they were suddenly hearing the voices of children.

They suddenly looked at Adrian as he was glowing in a calm and peaceful light, but they thought it was just the effect of his current form. It was then when a member of the shadow unit answered the question of a player next to her. The shadow unit member explained what the origin of the barrier that trapped them was.

The players started murmuring that such a horrible thing it is as they suddenly realized that the lights around them were the souls of the children. They thought that the lights were an effect of purifying the darkness or defeating the God Shesmu but they were the pure souls of children that were sacrificed.

”What is going to happen now?” One of the players asked as she was actually a spiritualist and could see the forms of the children.
