Chapter 224 - The War of the Realms: Light [Part 2]

The fist was swung at such a fast speed that it left an afterimage in the air. The four arms looked like dozens of them, completely covering the delicate figure of the Queen of Heaven.

Bang bang bang!

The dense and dull sound of the blows sucked the Queen of Heaven from the ground to the sky little by little. Her body was like a puppet controlled by some invisible force, trembling constantly under the fists of Light Luke, and from time to time, broken flesh turned into blood mist and exploded in the air.

The barrage of punches continued for nearly a minute. It felt as if she were being held aloft by some force. Finally, under Luke's fists, she transformed into a cannonball, plowing a nearly one-hundred-meter-long gully in the ground behind her. The soil on either side of her was lifted up, burying the Queen deep underground.

Everyone who witnessed this powerful and violent scene couldn't help but swallow twice, standing still and not daring to move forward. Even Malekith and Odin, who were fighting fiercely nearby, felt a sense of absurdity at the scene.

It was beyond their imagination that a strong man representing the priesthood of war could be beaten into a bloody mess on the battlefield with just fists.

But neither Odin nor Malekith worried about the Queen of Heaven being hammered into the earth. As long as the war was not over and the opponent was still breathing, she would not lose her fighting power. Instead, she would continue to increase her strength with the frenzy of war until the current war could meet her strength limit.

Just as Odin and the others thought, in just a moment, a big bulge appeared in the ground, and then the slender and tall figure of the Queen of Heaven, wrapped in powerful energy, exploded the ground and returned to the battlefield.

Compared to her previous neat and composed appearance, she now looked somewhat disheveled. Her long, neat hair was now disheveled, her skin still fair and tender from the new growth, and her delicate body and limbs now had some streamlined muscles, giving her a sense of lightness and strength that blended harmoniously.

"war!"

The Queen of Heaven raised her sword high. Just like Gungnir, the Eternal Spear to Odin, the Aether Particles to Malekith, and the Ice Box to Raul, she naturally also had a divine weapon that suited her priesthood.

High-dimensional energy surged from the void, madly immersing itself in the Queen's body and sword. Her aura steadily climbed. Powerful forces and magical elements converged before her, creating an energy storm. Vast energy, seemingly tangible, transformed into a whirlwind around the Queen. Standing at the center of the energy storm, the Queen unhesitatingly unleashed her accumulated strength upon Light Luke.

The various magics of the Heavenly Kingdom descended like a torrential energy storm. The powerful energy fluctuations even affected the battle between Odin and Malekith. They each cursed him inwardly, calling him a madman, and used their abilities to teleport themselves a great distance away. They didn't want to be affected by such a storm. The madwoman, frantically extracting and releasing elemental energy, no longer cared about the fate of the planet.

Facing the torrent of elemental magic and energy threatening to engulf him, the golden energy flowing through Luke's veins shone brightly once more. The energy core of the light gem in his chest surged with energy waves that rivaled even those of the Queen of Heaven. Luke extended his hand forward, and a powerful force of restriction and prohibition, with him as its boundary, spread endlessly forward.

Guang Luke's figure was submerged in a torrent of colorful energy.

The Queen of Heaven had a ferocious look on her face as she madly absorbed the divine power on the battlefield and the magical elements of this planet and the Nine Realms. Without caring about damaging her own body, she converted the absorbed energy into attack methods and released them. With just her own strength, she created a high-energy version of the saturation-type mopping-up attack.

From someone else's perspective, such a vast and powerful energy, used to attack a single person, would likely render them completely annihilated in an instant. Even a top-tier God King like Odin, without full armor, couldn't guarantee he could survive this frenzied onslaught.

This wasn't Asgard. Although his body was powerful, it couldn't compare to the Queen of Heaven, who was at the center of the battlefield. The other party could do this recklessly and without regard for the cost, relying on her endless self-healing power.

The core of this planet has not exploded yet. Apart from the fact that the attack is not directed outward, it is all due to the strength of the World Tree and the planet itself.

Suddenly, the energy torrent that continued to scrape off a thick layer of the ground was interrupted, as if the subsequent energy was cut off. After being interrupted several times, it completely died down.

The Queen of Heaven felt a jolt of emptiness throughout her body. Just a moment ago, the energy threatened to burst her, but now, it was completely empty, a rushing river reduced to a trickling stream. This instantaneous change left her with a peculiar sense of loss and confusion. However, she didn't have the heart to dwell on it for the moment. Her gaze was fixed on the area where the energy torrent gradually dissipated and the smoke and dust cleared. She wanted to see the three-eyed stranger's powerful body utterly destroyed by the energy torrent.

However, as the energy tide began to subside, and all senses disrupted by the torrent of energy resumed their function, the Queen of Heaven suddenly detected a still-strong aura within the dust region. Her expression changed, and her eyes widened in disbelief. The dust dissipated, revealing a scene where Light Luke stood silently, his arm extended forward. A shield of light, shimmering with tiny specks of light, vanished into thin air.

Behind him, with Guang Luke's body as the boundary, the ground on both sides was washed away by the torrent of energy, leaving a deep crack. A large V-shaped terrain took shape almost instantly. Deep in the crack, even flowing lava could be vaguely seen.

The Queen of Heaven was filled with shock and fury at the nearly unscathed Light Luke. If even this level of energy attack couldn't effectively harm the enemy before her, then she should completely reconsider abandoning it and employing other methods. An attack of that magnitude would have been a tremendous burden and risk even for her. If it weren't for the divine power she had accumulated from previous battles and the fact that she was currently at the center of the conflict, she wouldn't have been able to easily unleash this level of elemental energy.

She subconsciously tightened her grip on the sword, took a deep breath, and began once again to absorb the battlefield's divine power to replenish her somewhat depleted body. But this time, the absorption was exceptionally slow. Before, she only needed a breath to draw a large amount of divine power from the battlefield to replenish her consumption, but now, even though she absorbed with all her might, the divine power that converged on her was much less than before. Clearly, in her perception, the battlefield was filled with the familiar divine power of war that she could control with ease.

But she just couldn't absorb it.

She seemed to be surrounded by a thick layer of insulation, blocking the outside energy from entering. As she subconsciously speculated on the reason for this situation, she suddenly remembered the strange energy fluctuations released by Guang Luke before he was engulfed by the energy torrent.

"What did you do?"

The Queen of Heaven looked at the light Luke ahead with fear. She hadn't paid close attention before, but now she realized not only that the speed at which she absorbed energy had slowed dramatically, but also that many of her skills and magic had become inoperable, as if she'd been brainwashed and forgotten how to use them. She felt like she was stuck in a bottomless quagmire, sinking deeper and deeper with every moment.

Without sufficient power to attack, and having temporarily lost the use of a large number of magic and skills, the only thing she can rely on now is her pure fighting skills.

As a queen of the war priesthood, she certainly had great confidence in her fighting skills, but facing an enemy who had inflicted severe damage on her with just her fists, this confidence was a bit vain.

Of course, Luke Guang would not answer the Queen of Heaven's questioning. He was just a silent being. The Luke who created him did not give him emotions or soul consciousness. He just appeared in this world as a pure weapon of war.

His only thought was to complete the instructions and tasks given to him by his maker, Luke. Other than that, he didn't have any extra thoughts.

As for the changes that befell the Queen of Heaven, they were due to Light Luke's limited abilities. As the bearer of the Stone of Light, he naturally possessed the ability to control most energies. Especially with the intelligence provided by Asgard's Odin, it wasn't impossible for him to develop targeted sealing abilities. Furthermore, Light Luke's own design drawings contained similar technology; it would only require minor modifications to adapt it to the energy of this universe, or rather, the Nine Realms.

Golden light filled Luke's entire body, drenching him in a divine glow. The Queen of Heaven instinctively sensed a sense of danger within this golden energy. She could sense that it was somewhat similar to the energy of Heaven.

Nearby demons from the Hell dimension were affected by the golden light emanating from Luke's body. A pall of white smoke immediately rose from their bodies. They screamed and abandoned their opponents, abandoning them and escaping in a sprint, stopping only when Luke's energy could no longer reach them. A single encounter sent some demons struck by the golden light into a searing pain, as if they had been doused with sulfuric acid. It was a kind of agonizing pain, unlike the excruciating pain the demons were familiar with.

They didn't know what that golden energy was, but their perception and bodies told them it was best to stay away from it, otherwise they would be as vulnerable as a human facing a high-temperature flame. It was a force that was the opposite of the power of the Hell Dimension, a force even more disgusting and fearful than the power of Heaven.

Holy light!

The weapon of light that was as solid as a substance was shaped by Light Luke and held in his hand. His dark palms clenched tightly, and his body rushed forward. He appeared in front of the Queen of Heaven with an unstoppable and violent posture. The weapons on his four arms were swung tightly and smashed down on the Queen of Heaven from above.

The queen also swung the sword in her hand tightly. As a divine weapon, the sword has the ability to cut everything. However, the frequency with which she broke the energy weapon in Luke's hand could not even keep up with the speed of his reshaping.

The opponent's skills were no less impressive than hers, and he seemed to be constantly absorbing and adapting to her techniques. In just half an hour, the Queen of Heaven felt like a thousand years had passed. The pressure from Luke alone was too great, so great that she felt a little afraid. However, as soon as the thought arose, she forcefully suppressed it, pushing it to the back of her mind. While the priesthood of war would undoubtedly bring her immense strength, it would also temporarily abandon her due to her fear.

She tried her best to display all her fighting skills, hoping to break free from Light Luke's attack and catch her breath. However, the opposite happened. The pressure she faced became greater and greater. Before, she could still fight with Light Luke on a relatively evenly matched basis, but now, she has been completely suppressed. The opponent has thoroughly grasped all her skills in a short period of time and analyzed her weaknesses, making her currently resisting in a clumsy and awkward manner.

Perhaps in the next moment, she would be stabbed by Guang Luke's weapon, causing her fatal damage.

Ten more minutes passed, and the Queen of Heaven, surprisingly exhausted in such a short period of time, felt her energy supply running out. The mental and physical strain and shock she endured strained her movements. Ultimately, her impenetrable defense inevitably gave way. Her heart sank, and she tried to salvage the situation, but Luke offered her no chance.

Two spears pierced her body, the searing holy light searing her flesh and tormenting her spirit. Even Guang Luke coldly detonated the vast amount of holy light infused within her. Her skin beneath her armor instantly seemed to be stained golden. Under the intense holy light, she felt as if her life form was being forcibly twisted, transforming into some kind of energy creature. Simultaneously, her spirit and consciousness were being purified by this energy. In that instant, her mind was filled with thoughts and ideas she had never before experienced.

"Don't even think about controlling me!" The Queen of Heaven desperately summoned the remaining energy in her body to protect her mind, stubbornly resisting the onslaught of holy light. To this end, she even gave up her body's defense.

Light Luke unceremoniously fixed the limbs of the Queen of Heaven with four holy light spears, and the light energy core at the core of his chest stirred up a brilliant light, covering the opponent's face from top to bottom at close range.

The Queen of Heaven's desperate cries of pain gradually faded as her figure faded into the light, eventually vanishing completely. When the light faded, only a broken sword and fragments of armor remained on the ground.
