Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
Chapter 843 The Power Of Faith [Part 1]
Lux's Deus Gigantia had two forms.
The first form was its regular form, where he would summon a Skeleton King that would always be a Rank Higher than him and would always be a World Boss Monster.
Currently, Lux was a D-Ranker, so when he summoned Deus Gigantia, a Skeleton King with the rank of a Dreadnaught-Ranked World Boss, would appear.
But that was only its basic form.
Deus Gigantia's second form would allow all of Lux's Undead Legion, Named Creatures, as well as members of his Covenant to merge with the Skeleton King, absorbing 20% of all of their Maximum Stat Points. Compared to Leonidas' Unique Skill, Power Assimilation, this was no doubt the better skill.
However, this skill had its drawbacks.
Once Lux had used this skill, he wouldn't be able to summon his Undead Legion and Named Creatures, except for the members of his Covenant, to aid him in battle for an entire day.
He would also not be able to use Deus Gigantia for that same amount of time.
Simply put, this was an all-out attack, combining all of Lux's forces into one powerful creature that could even transcend the might of a Supreme once the Half-Elf became a Saint.
Leonidas looked up at the Gigantic Behemoth in front of him, which was wielding a giant spear in its hand.
When he told Lux to use any remaining tricks he had in order to fight him, he didn't expect the Half-Elf to be able to summon a Giant Skeleton King, whose current Rank was in the middle stages of the Empyrean Rank.
Not to mention, the monster was a World Boss, which meant that it was strong enough to take on a group of several High-Rankers before getting defeated.
Despite being faced with such an opponent, the Mercenary leader firmly held his ground.
He then raised the spear that was given to him by the event's organizer and pointed it at the Monster before him.
"Brothers and sisters, tonight, we dine in Hell!" Leonidas declared with a fearless smile on his face.
He had faced death many times already, and this would just be one of those moments where he once again bets with his life and the life of others, putting everything on the line for the sake of a miracle.
The spirits of the Rankers who were also with him roared in agreement, for they understood that their chances of defeating such a beast were very slim.
Even so, just like Leonidas, all of them held firm and faced the Skeleton King with determination.
The Mercenary Leader's body then glowed gold, as his hair fluttered from the powerful aura that he was releasing.
He gripped the Legendary spear in his hand and assumed a fighting stance, preparing to unleash one powerful attack that would smite the foe in front of him.
Lux, who was commanding Deus Gigantia, also took a fighting stance and pointed the gigantic tip of the Spear of Longinus at the Mercenary Leader.
The Half-Elf was very impressed by Leonidas' unwavering determination even in the face of his most powerful ability.
"Brace!" Leonidas shouted, and several round shields appeared around him, forming the Phalanx Formation.
250 shields stood firm behind Leonidas, and all of them glowed golden with immense power.
The maximum limit of his skill was absorbing 300 people. However, only 250 Rankers remained, which made his formation fall short of its maximum potential.
Even so, Leonidas wasn't bothered and simply pointed his spear towards the blue crystal on the Skeleton King's chest, where Lux was currently located.
The Mercenary Leader's show of courage had touched the hearts of Agarthians who were watching the battle, and before they knew it, all of them started to cheer for the Gladiator, who was an Agarthian, just like them!
"""Fight!"""
"""Fight!"""
"""Fight!"""
"""Fight!"""
Just like the beating of a war drum and the battle cries of countless warriors, the Agarthians all stood as one against a common foe.
It didn't matter if Leonidas was a criminal.
It didn't matter what he had done in the past.
For this moment in time, he was just like them, an Agarthian.
His Win was their Win.
His Loss was their Loss.
Lux, whose senses had been heightened after becoming a Heaven's Necromancer, noticed faint tendrils of white light flying towards Leonidas from the spectator's seats.
'The power of Faith,' Lux thought as his expression turned solemn.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl.cοm The power of Faith was also the power that gave birth to the Gods.
Normal people wouldn't be able to see them, but those who did understand how powerful Faith could be.
It was the power that helped manifest miracles, and right now, Lux could tell with his eyes blessed by Heaven that Leonidas' power was steadily rising at a rapid rate.
Countless prayers and wishes of the Agarthians all merged into Leonidas' body, granting him unimaginable strength, which he hadn't felt before.
Leonidas, who suddenly noticed the changes in his body was surprised, but deep in his heart, he had an idea of what was happening.
For that was the nature of his power.
Power that grew stronger the more others placed their complete and unwavering trust in him.
As the Mercenary Leader's strength continued to soar, the 250 Golden Shields behind him also glowed brighter.
'Do not be afraid, young one.'
The Skeleton King spoke directly inside Lux's head.
'He's not the only one who has the power of Faith,' the Skeleton King said through telepathy. 'You also have it in you. The Undead may not have hearts, and you will not be able to hear their heartbeats, but they are very much alive. Feel them with your heart, hear them with your soul, and tap into the power that became exclusively yours after your Rebirth.'
After hearing the Skeleton King's words, Lux felt like he was enlightened.
A moment later, he sensed it.
Diablo's, Ishtar's, Pazuzu's, Orions, Asmodeus', Lazarus' wishes…
All of the members of his Covenant's determination…
And his Undead Legion's unwavering loyalty…
They were the creatures who would always be on his side, even if the entire world became his enemy.
His steadfast allies through thick and thin.
Warriors who would fight on the front lines for his sake, and sing his songs of glory.
Calypso, who had taken the form of the Spear of Longinus hummed, and the sound of an angelic hymn spread across the Gladiator Coliseum.
The Agarthians were countless, and the power of their Faith was strong.
Lux's Undead Legion was nothing compared to them, but that didn't matter.
Even if he were against the entire world, he would never be alone!
"Together!" Lux declared as his green eyes turned gold, gathering the power of Faith from his companions who were fighting alongside him.
Leonidas, who had also gathered the power he needed, also roared as he prepared to unleash his strongest attack.
"Devastate!" Leonidas roared. "Son of Hercules!"
"Pierce the Void!" Lux shouted. "Spear of Longinus!"
The Giant Skeleton King thrust the Divine Spear towards the Mercenary Leader, and Leonidas, in turn, thrust upwards, meeting the attack head-on.
A clash of Will.
A clash of Faith.
And with it, a battle that would be remembered in the Kingdom of Agartha for centuries to come rocked the entirety of the Gladiator Coliseum to its very core.
