A buzzing sound came from all directions.
"Lu Li, look around!" Erica warned Lu Li.
Lu Li looked up and around, and saw that black fog had somehow spread around the entire city.
Upon closer inspection, it was not fog at all, but a dense swarm of locusts.
"Go forth, my kin! Devour the enemy to ashes!"
Countless locusts rushed towards Lu Li, completely covering him in the blink of an eye. These locusts were Mercator's retinue, capable of devouring even steel-reinforced buildings in an instant.
Not to mention people.
"Young man, to have forced this old man, the King of Gods, to this point is truly commendable. You have something to be proud of..."
call----!!
A towering flame shot up, and the terrifying heat instantly vaporized the tens of thousands of locusts.
"what?!"
Mercato was taken aback by what he saw.
Lu Li's figure reappeared in front of Mercato.
At this moment, Lu Li's body was covered in raging flames and also wrapped in golden lightning.
Crack!
Lu Li's figure appeared in front of Mercato in an instant.
Mercato's pupils contracted sharply; he hadn't even seen how the other person had gotten there.
However, Mercator's divine fighting instincts prompted him to immediately launch an attack.
"Drink!!"
Mercato roared and slammed the Exile in his left hand down at Lu Li.
boom----! !
Lu Li caught the exile steadily with his right hand.
Upon seeing this, Mercato immediately swung his right-hand pursuer at Lu Li.
boom----! !
Lu Li caught the pursuer steadily with his left hand.
"Crush!!"
Lu Li whispered a command.
“————!!”
Click, click—!
Mercato's weapons cracked and then shattered completely.
Mercato stared wide-eyed in disbelief: "How is this possible?! The Pursuer and the Exile are divine artifacts crafted by the god of craftsmen, Kusava Hassis, and possess the divinity of that god. How could they possibly be destroyed by magic?!"
Whoosh!
A honeycomb-like magical shield enveloped Mercator's body, trapping him inside.
Mercato sensed something was wrong.
He swung his fist and attacked the magic shield with all his might, but this was a shield that Lu Li used when he was using all his magic power, and it was not something that Mercato could break in a short time.
Lu Li took a deep breath, gathering his magic power in his lungs. 193
"The Dragon God's..."
"roar!!!"
Lu Li spat out a massive thunderous flame that combined the attributes of lightning and fire.
The flames were accompanied by massive bolts of lightning, and the ferocious attack instantly engulfed Mercato's figure.
"Ughh ...
Mercato let out a painful scream, and wherever the lightning and flames passed, skyscrapers were instantly vaporized.
boom-----!!!
Thunder and flames fell on the sea.
The entire sea was split in two by thunder and flames.
A short while later, the thunderous flames slowly shrank and eventually disappeared.
Mercato, who was standing in front of Lu Li, had disappeared.
Just then, the scene before Lu Li shifted, and a familiar space appeared before him.
There's nothing here; everything is painted grayish-white.
Not far in front of him was a girl with pigtails wearing a white dress, none other than Pandora.
“My son, we meet again? You have actually killed a god again. You are truly your mother’s pride.”
Pandora ran over and hugged Lu Li as she spoke.
Lu Li pressed his hand against Pandora's forehead to keep her from getting closer: "Stop! If you don't want to become the third god I kill, you'd better be serious."
Chapter 104 Regaining Power
"scare---!!"
Pandora was startled by these words.
"How annoying! Even without the reincarnation ritual, I am still the benefactor who transferred the power of the God of Generals, Vereslana, to you. Even if I'm not your mother, I can still be considered your adoptive mother, right?"
Crack! Crack! !
Golden arcs of electricity appeared around Lu Li's head.
"I'm not going to talk about it anymore!"
Pandora quickly waved her hand.
"Honestly, you have such a bad temper. It's a wonder that someone came all the way from the realm of the immortals just to meet you today."
"She's a legitimate goddess! Don't humans generally have great respect and faith in gods?"
Lu Li curled his lips: "Sorry, I'm a born atheist. I only believe in myself. I've already killed two disobedient gods. Gods are nothing special to me. In fact, they're just a bunch of troublemakers."
"Hahahaha!! Interesting!! Very interesting!! Pandora, it seems you're not well-liked by this powerful god-slayer!"
Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded.
Lu Li looked in the direction of the sound and saw that the disobedient god Mercato, who had fought with him before, had appeared out of thin air.
"Lord Mercato."
Upon seeing Mercator appear, Pandora bowed.
"Mercato, you're still alive?"
"I can be said to be alive, or I can be said to be dead."
"What do you mean?"
Pandora explained, "Gods are born from mythology. As long as the divine realm exists, gods will never die. Furthermore, each god actually has multiple identities."
“For example, Lord Mercator was the king who ruled over the ancient Phoenician gods. Later, his myth spread to Greece and became the prototype of the hero Hercules.”
"In the questioning of Christ, he is still the devil of gluttony, one of the seven deadly sins."
"Milton's Paradise Lost portrays him as a devil on par with God."
"Also known as Beelzebub, the Dark Emperor Baal, the leader of the seventy-two demons."
"However, it would take an extremely long time to be resurrected, and we don't know in what form the gods will appear next. This is what makes gods gods."
"So complicated."
He seemed to have heard these names before, but also seemed not to have.
“Normally, it is difficult to determine a winner between god-slayers and god-killers, because many gods or god-slayers have the ability to resurrect. But I never expected that you would kill me outright, without even giving me a chance to resurrect.”
Mercato's words seemed to carry a hint of resentment, even though gods could be resurrected and didn't care much about death.
But even gods feel pain!
He had just endured a double attack of fire and lightning; his powerful vitality allowed him to completely withstand how he went from a strong man to ashes.
He still feels lingering fear when he thinks about it now.
resurrection?
Do I want to experience that kind of pain again?
Whoever wants to be resurrected can be resurrected, but he was determined at that time never to be resurrected.
"Why did you call me here this time?"
"Of course it's for my darling..."
Lu Li glanced at Pandora.
Pandora quickly changed her tune: "This is a reward for my dear little Lu Li. You are the demon king who killed Lord Mercator, the god king."
"For a god-slayer, each time a disobedient god is killed, he will be rewarded with a portion of the power that was killed."
"Power?"
Lu Li pouted.
"Hey! Kid, why do you look at me with such disdain? Are you looking down on my power?"
Mercato felt a surge of displeasure upon seeing Lu Li's appearance.
"No."
Lu Li turned his head to the other side.
This infuriated Mercato, who jumped up and down in anger: "You brat, you're underestimating my power!! Come on! Let's fight again!"
"Forget it! I'm not interested in my defeated opponents."
Although they haven't started fighting yet, Lu Li doesn't have a good impression of this disobedient god.
He is a human being, perhaps stronger, but he always considers himself a human being.
He disliked the arrogant attitude of these disobedient gods towards people.
They even wanted to destroy the city before, completely disregarding human lives. How can we respect such a deity?
It was already merciful of him not to kill him outright.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu""
Mercato was furious when he heard Lu Li's words. He was the God King Mercato, and yet he was being looked down upon by a brat.
"You brat, this time I'm the one who descended to earth as a dragon hunter. If I had descended to earth under any other identity, I would have shown you how powerful I am!"
"Oh, oh, don't be angry, Lord Mercato. I'm just a child and don't understand your greatness."
Pandora stopped Mercato and tried to dissuade him.
"Then you'd better hurry up. Today you might be able to catch a glimpse of my back, but soon you won't even be able to see my back."
"Ooohhhhhh!"
"Calm down! Calm down!"
"Dragon God - Giant Spirit God Mode!"
Lu Li's body rapidly grew to an enormous size, estimated to be at least a thousand meters tall. The god-king Mercato, who was about fifteen meters tall, was no bigger than a child in front of Lu Li.
"Old man, I don't care if you're a god-king or a demon-king, if you want to fight, then let's fight!"
"..."
Mercato fell silent.
