The Annihilator: Killer Of Gods-Chapter 270: A Tier 9 Mutant Appeared

"That’s one massive Tier 9 beast," Karsha grinned, charging his sword with Ice essence. With a swift motion, a Crescent Ice Arc shot from his blade, slashing through the 50-meter-long, 20-meter-wide Tier 9 lizard monster.

He and Khinux had been on a rampage for the past five hours, carving through the forest. Hundreds, if not thousands, of monsters, had already succumbed to their relentless onslaught.

Karsha cycled through his Fire Beam, Crescent Ice Strike, and Call of the Storm skills, delivering lethal sword strikes enhanced by his elemental powers.

Meanwhile, Khinux’s raw strength took down most of the monsters. His strikes, sometimes followed by blood arcs slicing through the air with deadly accuracy, made quick work of their enemies.

At other times, dark arcs of energy ripped through the air, cleaving several monsters in half with brutal efficiency.

The battle raged on as Karsha and Khinux moved seamlessly through the forest. Karsha shouted over the din of combat, "Another one down! These Tier 9 Lizard Behemoths are tougher than I thought."

Khinux grunted in agreement, his enormous sword swinging with effortless precision.

"Just focus on keeping them off me. I’m about to unleash my Earthquake Slash!" Within the five hours of battle, Karsha and Khinux have grown close, each countering the others’ attacks with perfect synchrony.

Karsha was shocked at the sheer brute power Khinux was using. He wondered whether he would have survived when he fought him back then. Just thinking about it sent chills down his spine. Khinux is somehow different now.

Khinux’s sword glowed a fierce mix of dark and orange, and he brought it down in a massive arc. The ground trembled as an Earthquake Slash erupted from his blade, sending shockwaves through the forest.

Several Tier 8 Calamity Mutants called Stone Crushers, known for their thick armor and high resistance, were blasted off their feet, their defenses shattered by the quake.

Karsha wasn’t idle; he used his Fire Beam skill, unleashing Two crimson Fire Arcs at a pack of Tier 9 Fire Drakes. The drakes, with their blazing scales and fiery breath, were momentarily overwhelmed. Karsha shouted, "Burn, you overgrown lizards!"

The Fire Beam burned through the drakes, leaving trails of scorched earth and crumbling scales in its wake. Karsha followed up with a Crescent Ice Strike, freezing the remaining drakes in place before shattering them with a flurry of rapid sword strikes.

Khinux roared in triumph as his Earthquake Slash cleared the battlefield of several monsters. "Nothing like the feel of crushing an enemy with sheer power!"

"Exactly, show this brutes who the real king of brutality is" Karsha added supporting Khinux’s remarks.

As the forest cleared, a new threat emerged—an enormous Tier 9 Thunderstorm Wyrm, its scales crackling with electric energy. Karsha narrowed his eyes, assessing the new foe. "Looks like we’ve got a storm to weather."

Khinux nodded, preparing his next move. "Let’s hit it hard before it unleashes its storm."

Karsha activated Call of the Storm, summoning a tempest of lightning and wind that hammered the Wyrm with relentless fury. The Wyrm hissed in pain as it was battered by the storm, its movements becoming erratic.

Khinux charged forward, his sword glowing with dark energy. "Darkness Arc, slice through!"

A streak of shadowy energy erupted from Khinux’s blade, cleaving through the Wyrm’s thick scales. The Wyrm roared in agony, its electric aura flickering as it struggled to defend itself. Explore more adventures at novelbuddy

Karsha took advantage of the distraction, channeling his Ice essence once more. "Crescent Ice Strike, "

The ice crescent flew true, slamming into the Wyrm and encasing it in a prison of frost. With a final, powerful strike, Karsha shattered the frozen Wyrm into pieces.

"This is the way," Karsha said, eyeing the shattered remains of the colossal Wyrm.

Khinux nodded, echoing, "This is the way."

They set their sights on the forest ahead, pressing deeper into the dense foliage. The further they ventured, the more intense the sense of being watched became. Karsha could feel it growing stronger, a sure sign that he was closing in on his goal.

The path was eerily quiet, with no monsters daring to confront them. After the brutal carnage they had wrought, it was no surprise that the remaining creatures were keeping their distance.

Suddenly, a deafening roar shattered the silence.

A powerful aura descended upon them, making Karsha’s expression tighten with concern.

"This aura... it’s a Mutant," he said, his voice edged with alertness. The air felt charged with menacing energy, hinting at either a Great Mutant or a Dark Mutant.

Khinux’s eyes narrowed, his muscles tensing as he scanned their surroundings. "Looks like we’re about to meet something truly formidable. Get ready."

The roar seemed to reverberate through the forest as if the trees themselves were recoiling from the power it signaled. The oppressive aura thickened, and a shadow loomed in the distance, gradually taking shape.

As Karsha and Khinux moved cautiously through the forest, the oppressive aura grew stronger, becoming almost tangible.

The trees parted, revealing a large clearing bathed in eerie, dim light. There, amidst the thick mist and shadows, the source of the menacing presence emerged.

A towering figure stepped into view—a massive Mutant, known as the Eclipse Behemoth. Its sheer size was intimidating, standing nearly 70 meters tall.

The Behemoth’s body was a grotesque amalgamation of shadow and sinew, its dark scales shimmering with an unsettling iridescence. Its eyes glowed with malevolent crimson light, and jagged spines ran down its back, crackling with dark energy.

The Behemoth’s limbs were thick and powerful, ending in claws that looked capable of rending steel. Each step it took caused the ground to tremble, and its roar sent waves of dark energy rippling through the air.

The beast had an aura of raw, unbridled power that made the fearless Karsha break into a cold sweat.

"What in the hell is that thing?" Khinux muttered, his voice a mix of awe and fear.

"That’s the Eclipse Behemoth, a Dark Mutant," Karsha replied, his tone grim. "It’s known for its devastating abilities and nearly impervious hide. However, I’d like to see just how thick its skin really is."

"I’ll take vanguard, you stay back and provide support," Karsha said. Khinux nodded, readying his weapon.

Karsha dashed forward, moving like a streak of lightning, his swords glowing golden. The monster’s claw glowed a dark, ominous gold as it swiped, sending a sharp golden arc toward Karsha.

He quickly sped up, narrowly evading the deadly attack, and countered by slashing his sword forward, sending a powerful fire arc at the monster.

BOOM!

The fire arc slammed into the monster’s side, pushing it back a few steps. The Behemoth roared in anger, its dark energy flaring as it steadied itself. Karsha’s eyes narrowed, focusing on the next move.

"Not so tough, are you?" Karsha taunted, his swords now crackling with Ice essence.

The Behemoth responded with another roar, this time summoning dark tendrils from the ground, aiming to ensnare Karsha.

With a swift movement, Karsha leaped into the air, dodging the tendrils and landing on the monster’s back. He plunged one of his swords into the Behemoth’s thick hide, ice spreading from the point of impact.

"Now, Khinux!" Karsha shouted.

Khinux charged forward, his sword radiating with a fierce orange glow.

"Earthquake Slash!" he yelled, bringing his sword down with all his might. The ground shook violently as the shockwave hit the Behemoth, causing it to stagger.

Karsha took advantage of the opening, unleashing a flurry of powerful sword strikes, each one glowing with elemental energy.

The Behemoth roared in pain, thrashing wildly to shake him off. Despite its efforts, Karsha held on, determined to find a weakness in its armor.

Meanwhile, Khinux continued his assault from the ground, sending arcs of dark energy slicing through the air.

"Blood Arc!" he called out, and a crimson slash shot from his blade, striking the Behemoth’s leg and causing it to buckle.

The Eclipse Behemoth, now wounded and enraged, summoned a storm of shadowy orbs. They hovered menacingly before launching toward Karsha and Khinux.

Karsha quickly raised a diamond wall, deflecting most of the orbs, while Khinux used his immense strength to shatter the remaining ones with his sword.

"Damn, this idiot has some tricks up his sleeve," Karsha shouted, watching the explosion from the dark orbs. He knew that a direct hit from one of those would leave nothing behind.

"Let’s see what you can do against my next attack." Khinux charged forward, clashing with the monster head-on.

Meanwhile, Karsha noticed a sudden mutation in his Fire Beam skill for the first time and began charging his sword with fire essence. He didn’t stop there; a golden aura appeared around the sword, and the tip turned dark golden.

He also activated [Sword Aura EX] and [Sword Intent]. "Khinux, move back!" Karsha shouted. Khinux landed one last attack before dashing back.

"Eat this!" Karsha grinned, bringing down his Enigma Sword.

BOOM!

A powerful fire arc shot out of the sword, slicing through the air toward the monster. As the fire arc moved, it twisted the space around it, distorting reality with its sheer power.

’Impressive,’ commented Elara from Karsha’s soul sea.

The fire arc slammed into the Eclipse Behemoth with a thunderous explosion.

The force of the impact sent shockwaves rippling through the forest, and the Behemoth’s roar of agony echoed far and wide. The fire arc seared through its thick hide, cutting deep into its flesh.

The monster writhed in pain, its dark energy flaring wildly as it tried to counter the attack. But the power of Karsha’s Enigma Sword was too much.

The fire arc continued to slice through the Behemoth, leaving a trail of charred and twisted flesh in its wake.

The Behemoth’s eyes bulged in horror as its body began to disintegrate under the relentless assault. Dark energy leaked from its wounds, and its once-imposing form started to crumble.

The ground beneath it turned black and cracked as the monster’s life force was consumed by the fire arc.

With one final, desperate roar, the Eclipse Behemoth exploded in a shower of dark energy and burning flesh.

The remains of the monster were scattered across the clearing, its once-mighty form reduced to nothing more than smoldering, unrecognizable chunks.

Karsha stood tall, his sword still glowing with residual energy.

"Well, that takes care of that." Karsha smiled, but before he could celebrate, two more monsters appeared from two different directions.
