Invincible! This person has lived for a billion years-Chapter 783 The Triton Seal
Chapter 783 The Triton Seal
?Garen didn't enter the office just because Dexter had invited him,what if Mr. Johnson didn't have time to see him?
He stood at the doorway like a child who had done something wrong, looking somewhat nervously at William.
William felt it was inappropriate to let Garen stand at the door like that, especially now that he was a teacher at the school. With his commitment to whatever job he took on, it seemed excessive as a teacher to let the vice principal stand at the door.
"Vice Principal Garen, what do you need? Come in and talk," William said, always one to separate personal matters from professional duties.
He could guess why Garen was there, so he temporarily put aside his work and looked at Garen calmly.
Garen finally stepped into the office and glanced at the other teachers.
The teachers also tactfully left the office.
"Vice Principal Garen, you guys take your time, we're off to class."
Dexter tactfully left, thinking it awkward to stand around while those two discussed personal matters.
Without needing further prompting, the other teachers quickly exited the office.
Now, only Garen and William were left in the office.
"Mr. Johnson, I want to challenge the Pantheon Guild. Do you think it's a good idea?" Garen didn't beat around the bush or make excuses,he got straight to the point.
He knew that speaking in vague terms in front of William might only annoy him.
William raised an eyebrow and said, "You want to challenge the Pantheon Guild, then go challenge them. Why are you telling me this?"
"Mr. Johnson, don't you think this is just infighting?" What Garen really cared about was William's opinion.
Nothing else mattered to him at the moment.
In his view, his strongest sword was enough to intimidate the entire Pantheon Guild.
William said seriously, "Isn't humanity progressing through internal conflict? Besides, what does your infighting have to do with me?"
This left Garen somewhat at a loss for words,he had thought William might have some concerns.
Now it seemed that William really didn't care what he did,whether it was infighting or not, it was none of his concern.
Garen suddenly realized, "Right, with Mr. Johnson's level of ability, why would he care about these things?"
"Garen understands now." Garen slightly bowed his head and took two steps back, saying, "Mr. Johnson, you continue with your work, I'll take my leave now."
William waved his hand dismissively. He was growing increasingly averse to such obsequious behavior, but since it was meant as a sign of respect, he didn't feel the need to comment.
Just as Garen was about to leave the office, a loud shout came from the sky.
"Garen, aren't you challenging our Pantheon Guild? I am Ilias, here to meet you!"
Ilias's voice boomed like a great bell, his powerful presence overwhelming as it descended from above, having located Garen right above the office, taunting him.
William chuckled, "Your opponent has come to you, better go out and face him."
Garen nodded, slowly stepped out of the office, straightened up, and with a leap, flew into the sky to confront Ilias.
Ilias's words also spread throughout the entire base of Arcane Village.
Samuel and others were shocked. Was Garen here to provoke the Pantheon Guild?
Hadn't he said he was bringing members of the Emerald Lion Guild to the school at the base for learning?
If it was a challenge to the Pantheon Guild, that changed the complexion of things entirely!
With humanity already facing a major crisis, why would the two major Guilds engage in infighting?
This seemed utterly irrational to Samuel and the others.
"Pantheon Guild's Elder Ilias?" Garen, holding a wooden sword, spoke indifferently, "Ilias, you dare come alone? Didn't you think to bring your guild leader?"
Garen had already reported the matter to William, so he made no attempt to disguise his intentions. The challenge was out in the open now!
Ilias, hands behind his back, spoke disdainfully, "You're not worthy of facing our guild leader!"
Now that the challenge to their Pantheon Guild was clear, Ilias, known for his fiery temper, was not about to exchange pleasantries with Garen.
"Is that so?" Garen replied with a cold laugh, "It seems your Pantheon Guild is ready for a war of attrition?"
"That suits me fine, let me take you on one by one!" Garen tilted his wooden sword and declared, "If today I am fortunate enough to defeat the members of the Pantheon Guild, I ask that the Pantheon Guild withdraw from the prized land of Mount Olympus."
Garen had anticipated that the members of the Pantheon Guild wouldn't rely on the defensive barriers of the Guardian Guild to fend him off. After all, they were once the strongest guild, and a sense of superiority still lingered.
"Fine! If you lose, how about the entire Emerald Lion Guild comes under the management of our Pantheon Guild?" Ilias proposed crisply, sneering, "And we could even make Garen an Elder, which wouldn't be too bad!"
"Ilias, enough talk! Make your move!" Garen could sense that Ilias was powerful, but he believed that he was at least his equal in terms of strength.
But strength is one thing, and the main characteristic of a swordsman is their aggressive attack power.
Historically, in the world of Soulmancers, it's almost taken for granted that swordsmen have the strongest attack power.
A truly powerful swordsman challenging and defeating stronger opponents is nothing unusual, especially since Garen had learned secret sword techniques from William.
Ilias wasted no more words. Clasping his hands together, a small golden seal suddenly appeared in front of him.
The Triton Seal!
With a flick of his finger, the small golden seal expanded immensely and thundered down towards Garen.
Garen raised his sword, striking at the massive seal!
When the wooden sword touched the huge seal, a massive blast of air was unleashed, causing the trees of Mount Olympus to sway, some even snapping in half.
Some ordinary people were blown away by the blast, but there were many superpowered observers who could help save those around them.
As Garen and Ilias clashed for the first time, it seemed likely that innocent bystanders might be caught in the crossfire and killed.
"Hmph!" Ilias snorted coldly, his eyes slightly closed as he chanted a spell. Suddenly, a thick purple lightning bolt struck down from the sky towards Garen.
With the recent surge in Earth's energy, the spells of the Pantheon Guild, derived from natural forces, had become stronger. Even though the Cosmic Entity had left the thirteen universes, the original cosmic laws remained unchanged. The heavenly tribulations were gone, but these spells had become five times stronger than before.
Swordsmen are strong, but under these conditions, some spells had also been enhanced.
Garen quickly dodged, avoiding the purple lightning falling from the sky.
The purple lightning struck the school playground, instantly turning dozens of innocent students to ash.
"Let's see how long you can dodge!" Ilias wasn't concerned about the students at all. Seeing Garen dodge the first lightning spell, he gathered all his energy, his eyes tightly shut, and chanted again. Ten purple lightning orbs floated around him.
The orbs emitted a blinding light, and the sky thundered with the sound of lightning, the clouds dense and the lightning painting half the sky purple.
His aim was to attack Garen, but most of the lightning struck the base of Arcane Village.
The magic unleashed by a Lesser Deity was not something ordinary superhumans could withstand.
Garen was overwhelmed, barely able to defend himself, and many ordinary people in the base died under Ilias's magical lightning.
The frequency of the magical attacks was too high. Garen wanted to engage in close combat, but Ilias's various flashy spells blocked him, and even his wooden sword had turned to ash.
