Chapter 1089 Golem



To break the chains of the World of Darkness, it was necessary to exert tremendous strength.

It was unlikely that the beings on the God Stage possessed the necessary strength, only those who had reached the Transcendence Stage were capable of doing so.

In order to fight such a massive entity, one had to be different from this world and have their own way. Alucard fell under this definition, perhaps more so than the others.

However, only by activating First Gate, and striking at full power, had Alucard been able to destroy the chains that held Kraken back. Now, he found himself in a completely different situation.

"Hah, if the opponent is immortal, but there's no point in trying to kill him." Wain smirked as he crossed his arms over his chest, "Much better to just seal him up, forever."

Marlis glanced at him, "You don't seem worried about him at all."

Wain shrugged, "Don't forget, it's only a memory. In our time, or five hundred years after these events, Alucard is alive and well, he's the same as he was before. Obviously, he got out of that trap."

Sven frowned, "Well... Honestly, I'm not sure I could have done it alone. Maybe you or Liang could have done it. You, because of your destructive power that no barrier can resist... Liang could simply break even a million chains if he used his Form.

However... Is Alucard capable of that? His main feature is regeneration, but not physical strength."

Wain smirked, "Hah, you're wrong."

"Agh...?" Sven gave him a questioning look.

Wain pointed to the sphere of chains, "Immortality also means a virtually limitless amount of internal energy. It's somewhat similar to your ability, but you absorb energy from the outside, while Alucard, can take it from within."

Wain continued, "Sure, this method has its limits, but Alucard also has unique abilities like the rest of us. After all, his immortality isn't his trump card, it's a common thing for him."

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

At the same moment, scarlet streams of energy began to emanate from the sphere, passing through the gaps in the chains.

Then, above the sphere appeared the bloody number I. It was Alucard's First Gate, which he had activated earlier. Obviously, it was not enough to escape from such a powerful dungeon that the World of Darkness itself had built for him.

The chains shook slightly, but there was no damage on them, so Alucard had to use a more powerful tool to solve this problem.

From the blood, another symbol appeared, so now above the sphere hovered the sign - II.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The chains began to shake much more violently, and some of them began to break. The first to break were the chains on the very edge, as they were the most stable.

However, when the runes shone brightly on the chains, and several dozen more chains appeared, Alucard's attempts ceased to have any success.

The powerful aura, emanating from within made the chains shake, but no longer was it enough to destroy them.

"Well, well, looks like I'm going to see something that hasn't been seen in several hundred years." Gael uttered as a slight smile appeared on his face.

Ereg turned to him, "What are you talking about?"

"Gates, Alucard's special ability. I don't know exactly how it works, but one thing I do know for sure. Every time he opens a new Gates, he becomes significantly stronger. The Third Gates are the last ones he can use without activating his Form." Gael explained, with a slight look and a glare.

He was the only one who knew anything about Alucard's ability, so everyone else was puzzled, especially the audience. They thought that all Alucard was capable of was insane regeneration and that was enough for them to consider him one of the strongest.

However, Alucard was someone everyone considered a worthy opponent, only regeneration would be too little for such a status.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

The space trembled again, however, the aura stopped leaving the sphere. It seemed that Alucard had given up, but it was only the calm before a powerful storm.

Another symbol appeared above the sphere, turning into - III. Considering that Alucard hadn't used his Form, this was the maximum of his power at the moment.

Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.

Then, dozens of chains began to break into tiny shards from the invisible pressure that had not yet had time to escape from within due to its immense power.

"What is this...?" Nila muttered while her whole body shook in terror. She saw a dense, crimson aura begin to emerge from the chains, so dense that she could touch it and feel it.

She had never seen anything like it before, and neither had most of the spectators in the colosseum.

Nitra's eyes went wide, "Wait... If what he's using now is superior to the skill he used to save me and the Tree, then how much stronger has he become?"

Liang shrugged, "No one knows. However, I won't hide it. He's much stronger than you now, I can feel it from that creepy aura. In a fight against him, I'd have to use my Form pretty soon."

Nitra bit her lip. She wasn't happy with this answer, but she didn't say anything since she realized it was true. Liang had no reason to lie.

'Shit, even after everything that happened, I'm still not strong enough to stand on the same level as those monsters.' Nitra inwardly uttered with a great frown, 'What's wrong with this world? How is such injustice in strength even possible?!'

After hundreds of years of life, this day was the most important day for Nitra. In a moment, she was close to starting a war between the two Pillars, moreover, Liang had almost destroyed the main treasure of her world.

However, through these events, Liang's actions, and Alucard's intervention, she realized a lot of things.

Even though she was the strongest of her race, that didn't mean she had already reached her limit. There was always room to grow, even for someone who already seemed to be at the very top of the world.

Tremble. Tremble. Tremble.

Gradually, the dense crimson aura grew larger and larger, and with that, the chains began to collapse faster.

At first, only a few chains broke per second, then dozens, until it reached several hundred in one second.

After about a minute, there was almost nothing left of the chains as everyone saw Alucard's majestic silhouette again.

Outwardly, he hadn't changed in any way, except that the veins on his arms were swollen, and on the back of his palm was a mark - III of blood.

"Tsk. You made me use something so powerful. Come on, I'm sure you were ready for this! Show me what else you have prepared for me!" Alucard exclaimed with a great frown, staring into the void.

Kraken, watching this scene didn't know what to feel. He was simultaneously glad that Alucard was able to get out of the sphere, but Alucard's aura was actually frightening and even creepy.

He looked like he was ready to destroy the entire world with a single wave of his hand, and no one would be able to stop him.

For a while nothing happened, however, the most attentive noticed that the darkness in some places began to thicken. It was like a fog moving towards one point to reveal something.

Gradually, the darkness grew larger and thicker. It rose higher, becoming dozens of times larger than Alucard and almost as big as Kraken.

Alucard frowned as he clenched his fists tightly. Through his instincts, he sensed that this was the final measure from World of Darkness.

If he could handle this trial, World of Darkness would have nothing left to stop Alucard.

Several bright purple lights appeared in the fog, behind which something was hiding.

Then, as if in a current of wind, the dark fog slowly dispersed, revealing a tall silhouette behind it.

It was a huge golem made of an unusual black stone that seemed to be composed of the matter of open space and the energy of the World of Darkness.

However, none of that mattered except for the Golem's incredible aura. Everyone felt that this was a Transcendence Stage.

"What do you think?" Liang asked, turning to Nila, "Is this Golem's aura more powerful than yours?"

Nila gulped with a nod, "Definitely. If I were to find myself in front of this creature, I doubt I would be able to take even a step. Its aura just overwhelms me, even when I'm at this distance."

Alucard smirked, "Hah, do you really think pieces of stone will be enough to overpower me? Well, let's put that to the test!"

Whooooooooooooooosh.

At the same moment, several blood clots appeared behind Alucard. They were active and seemed alive. The blood clots shuddered and abruptly turned into long, massive spears with several desks around the base.

Then, at Alucard's sweep of his arm, the arrows tore forward, raining down on the Golem, whose violet-glowing eyes stared intently at Alucard.
