chapter 43

“There is a health bar!”

“It’s Ullr! It’s really the boss of the story!”

Seeing the message from the system, the players’ eyes shone.

And when they saw the task rewards and the line [The player’s state: Unlimited Resurrection] in the system bar, they removed all their worries.

They took heart. When they looked at the giant again, their expression was not of fear anymore.

In their eyes, the energy giant was no longer a horrible boss, but a lovely bunch of experience points and shining contribution points!

The task rewards of this boss of the story were not less than the previous goblin world boss!

Moreover, they did not have to worry that their level would decrease!

In an instant, all the players were motivated to the max.

Seeing all the elves looking at Him like a pack of hungry wolves, somehow, Ullr’s avatar felt uneasy.

Once again, He let out an angry roar and sent a slap at the elves, smashing two careless players to meat pies.

But this time, no one escaped.

Demacia glanced at the system bar in excitement and shouted,

“What are you waiting for?! Come on! Let’s destroy Him!”

Saying so, he rushed towards the giant cheerfully.

Glancing at him coldly, Ullr’s avatar stepped on him.

“Boo…”

Demacia was smashed flat on the ground. Even his equipment did not survive…

Li Mu, “…”

Box Meal, “…”

Little Salty Meow, “…”

Seeing this, the players calmed down their excitement.

They looked at each other, nodded, and turned to run outside of the temple.

“You want to escape?”

The avatar chuckled, moved His cumbersome body and chased after them.

However, when He came outside the temple, He froze.

The elves surprisingly didn’t continue to flee. On the contrary, they walked towards Him threateningly with their weapons.

The only thing different from before was that now they did not bring any equipment with them except for the wooden knives and wooden staffs in their hands. This was especially true for the close combat elves.

In a distant place, more elves were still passing their equipment to the lower level players who watched the battle from afar for safekeeping.

At this time, a holy light covered the whole of Florence.

But different from the previous holy light, the holy light this time was dim and gloomy with vague hints of the breath of death.

Eve created it with Hela’s divine force. He deliberately exaggerated the breath of death in order to cover His own breath of nature.

Seeing a group of elves shining with the breath of death, Ullr’s avatar stopped.

His blurred face looked doubtful.

“Hela?”

He could not help but wonder.

Among all true gods, only two were quite knowledgeable about souls.

One was the World Tree–Euktrahill, who had high-grade divine force, and was in charge of nature, life and elves, but had already fallen.

The other was the God of Death and Lord of the Underworld–Hela, who had intermediate-grade divine force!

Ullr could not perceive the breath of nature in these “elves”, but He could smell the vague sense of the breath of death!

The answer to his doubts was obvious.

Now, Ullr was almost sure that this group of strange “elves” were created by Hela.

However, instead of clearing his confusion, He felt even more confused, as He did not understand why Hela’s followers would appear in the secular world.

But as he was thinking about the reason why Hela would send Her followers to him, the players couldn’t wait any longer.

The elves in front of Him let out a cry of excitement,

“Come on!”

“For elves! For the goddess! Destroy Him!”

“Defeat Ullr!”

“Go!”

After shouting, dozens of elves of the strength system rushed towards Him, their bodies flashing with numerous skills.

In a distant place, another dozens of elves walked towards Him while chanting. Flashy magic constantly fell on Him.

They had no respect for a deity!

They had no fear of death!

Ullr’s avatar could not feel emotions. But as the elves continued to blatantly disrespect Him, He got absolutely furious.

Although He feared Hela’s power, it did not mean that mortals could profane the dignity of a true god!

He didn’t care whether they were Hela’s followers anymore! Those who dared to disrespect the dignity of a true god must die a horrible death!

He roared.

With the angry roar, the avatar of divine force drew out His battle-axe.

Now, He got serious.

Since they dared to attack a god’s avatar, they must pay the corresponding price!

With a swing from the huge axe made of divine force, a horrible fissure instantly appeared on the earth, which was so deep that no one could see the bottom of it.

All the players hit by the swing were sliced in half.

“Damn! The boss got stronger!”

“Go behind Him! Let’s go behind Him! The giant is slow!”

“Let’s kite Him!”

The players first let out a cry of shock, but they were not afraid. Instead, they continued to attack around Him like flies.

Ullr’s avatar got more irritated.

Although the elves’ attack was weak, He knew He was not in a good state…

He couldn’t afford a protracted battle. He must exterminate them quickly!

The eyes of the divine-force avatar flashed as He let out a howl. His attacks became more fierce.

After He intensified His attack, the elves quickly suffered heavy casualties.

However, while Ullr’s avatar was still under the impression that He would soon exterminate this group of awful worms, dozens of holy-lighted elves with the breath of death were shouting and rushing towards Him from afar.

The divine-force avatar looked at them subconsciously and instantly froze.

It was because He discovered that these coming elves were actually the ones He had just killed!

“Immortals?!”

The deep voice of Ullr’s avatar sounded sober.

At this moment, He realized something.

Elves lost their true god, so the souls of dead elves would go to the Underworld.

But these elves’ souls seemed hidden.

They were immortal beings like the undead whose souls were hidden!

Could it be…

“They are Hela’s elite ghost army?”

He said in disbelief.

But how could Hela’s elite ghost army appear in the continent of Sagas?

They were a true god’s household troops, having the solemn duty of guarding the Kingdom of Death and the Underworld!

But, how could they be so weak?

At this moment, Ullr was more puzzled than ever.

But the players did not care about His thoughts. Their eyes lit up as they saw that the energy giant seemed to be lost in contemplation.

“He is stiff! The boss is stiff!”

“Quick! Take the chance to attack Him!”

“Attack Him with more long-range magic! This way, His health bar will reduce quickly!”

In an instant, countless magic and sword skills were used to attack Ullr’s avatar.

The giant’s expression slightly dropped as He felt the divine force inside Him gradually getting more unstable.

He roared angrily,

“Get out!”

He wanted to retreat.

It was unnecessary for Him to stay here any longer. If they were really Hela’s elite ghost army, He could not defeat them unless He sent His true avatar or the guard of His totem here.

Hela must be plotting something in the forest of elves.

But it seemed that Hela did not follow the events here closely, which indicated that Her plot was not a priority.

Ullr didn’t need to stay here any longer. He would have His believers secretly investigate the matter in the forest of elves.

Now, the most important thing was to send back the divine blood crystals in the avatar!

Thinking of this, Ullr’s avatar wielded His axe again to force the elves back, while preparing to retreat secretly.

“Ha ha, now He wants to escape?”

Eve, who saw the change of divine force in Ullr’s avatar from the perspective of the players, sneered and used divine force again.

Suddenly, below the players’ eyes, an orange bar appeared below the health bar and an alert from the system followed–

[Ullr’s avatar is preparing to retreat. The retreat will begin after the orange bar is empty!]

The players’ eyes turned red when they read the alert.

“No! He is going to retreat!”

“We cannot let Him retreat! We have fought so hard, and we already reduced a quarter of His health bar!”

“We cannot lose our rewards! We have been fighting for so long!”

“Hurry and stop the orange bar from emptying!”

“Hah!”

They let out a loud cry and stopped maneuvering around the energy giant. Instead, they charged desperately towards Him.

And as for those players from the magic system, they stopped preserving their magic power and wantonly used all their skills. If their magic power was drained, they would commit suicide, rush back from the spot of resurrection quickly and continue to fling magic at the giant.
