Chapter 024: Crushed to Death

Wang Bo did not speak; he rolled his eyes and, as an answer, hurled the Gungnir in his hand with great force.

Once activated, Gungnir radiated boundless light and locked onto the Golden Man.

This was a spear that never missed—the moment it was thrown, it would strike the enemy, never failing to hit.

From the level of causality, Gungnir had already locked onto the Golden Man, leaving him no chance to evade.

The Golden Man's face darkened, but he did not panic. He knew he was locked onto by the divine spear. This kind of attack that reversed cause and effect was something he had faced before; though powerful, it was not hopeless.

With rich experience, the Golden Man faced this terrifying attack by swinging his shield with his left hand, blocking Gungnir's edge a second before the spear struck him.

With a crisp clang, the divine spear was deflected, but at the same time, the immense impact sent him flying.

Wang Bo raised his hands and clapped them together sharply. With a crack, thousands of sword auras burst from his hands, as fine as hair strands and radiating dazzling light, forming a vast net that spread across the entire hall.

In an instant, the Golden Man was bound.

The Golden Man sneered a few times and suddenly exerted force. In the void, sounds like snapping strings echoed, and the invisible sword auras were broken free by the Golden Man in an instant.

But Wang Bo did not mind, because from the moment the Golden Man exerted force to breaking free from the control of the invisible sword auras, it took a full second—a time that, for Wang Bo, was already quite long.

Wang Bo now had another Gungnir in his hand, a replica.

But its power had reached seventy percent of the original.

After aiming at the Golden Man, Wang Bo hurled Gungnir with force.

Like a meteor, Gungnir reached the Golden Man's chest within a thousandth of a second.

The Golden Man reacted quickly, instinctively blocking the strike with his scepter.

Ding!

The two powerful forces collided, and the resulting shockwave destroyed all the invisible sword auras in the air, sending Gungnir spinning away.

The Golden Man could not keep his footing and staggered back more than ten steps.

Before he could steady himself, Wang Bo pulled out another Gungnir, aimed at the Golden Man, and threw it with force.

Whoosh!

The Golden Man was horrified; he had not expected Wang Bo to have another divine artifact.

Seeing the spear about to pierce his throat, the Golden Man swung his scepter again, knocking the spear away, but the power contained in the spear, like a bursting flood, transferred into his body.

In an instant, half of the Golden Man's body went numb, and the scepter slipped from his hand.

Wang Bo smiled slightly and pulled out another Gungnir.

He didn't have much of anything else, but he had plenty of weapons.

Wang Bo had replicated too many good things like Gungnir. Though most were inferior to the original, they were not far off; calling them divine spears was no exaggeration.

The Golden Man roared, forcibly stabilizing himself, ready to counterattack.

But Wang Bo's doppelgänger was already prepared and immediately unleashed a flurry of punches.

Wang Bo's doppelgänger was currently a Superman—no magic, but with a few traits: immense strength and incredible speed.

In one second, it could unleash countless punches, each capable of blowing up a mountain. This was no joke but a fact, for the doppelgänger was a true Superman.

Unwilling to be pummeled by the doppelgänger, the Golden Man had no choice but to desperately block it.

But this gave Wang Bo a golden opportunity.

Under the Golden Man's despairing gaze, Wang Bo hurled the Gungnir in his hand once more.

This time, the divine spear met no resistance and struck the Golden Man's chest like a meteor piercing the sun. The Golden Man wore hard armor that blocked the spear, allowing him to narrowly escape death.

But the immense force sent the Golden Man flying.

With the upper hand, Wang Bo naturally pressed his advantage. He swung his hands and threw three or four Gungnirs in succession, precisely hitting the Golden Man's chest.

No matter how hard the armor on the Golden Man's chest was, it could not withstand the attacks of Gungnir and was eventually pierced through.

With a thud, Gungnir pinned the Golden Man to the golden throne.

Even in death, the Golden Man's face bore an expression of disbelief.

His armor and weapons, forged by the combined efforts of the gods, were the epitome of luxury, but Wang Bo's divine spears seemed endless, ultimately beating him to death.

In a sense, this was a contest of wealth.

Thanks to his cheat, Wang Bo had literally overwhelmed the Golden Man with Gungnirs.

His opponent had lost too unfairly.

Afterward, Wang Bo retrieved the Gungnirs scattered all over the floor. Gungnir was not a disposable item, so Wang Bo naturally would not leave them behind.

To be honest, today's battle reminded Wang Bo of Gilgamesh, the Hero King from the Nasuverse.

Every time he attacked, his method was extremely simple: open his Gate of Babylon and overwhelm the enemy with a pile of weapons.

His own actions in defeating the Golden Man today seemed very similar to Gilgamesh's attacks.

Perhaps he could also create a Gate of Babylon. When facing enemies, he would open it and overwhelm them with powerful weapons.

A whole bunch of divine spears aimed at you—wouldn't you be scared?

Though this kind of attack seemed a bit nouveau riche, it wasn't wasteful. Wang Bo remembered that the Gate of Babylon had the ability to automatically retrieve weapons, saving him the trouble of collecting them one by one.

Thinking this, Wang Bo walked up to the Golden Man and pulled out the Gungnir that had pierced his chest.

Then he picked up the shield and the scepter.

Both were good items.

The shield had blocked Gungnir's attack without leaving a single scratch, showing that it was also a very powerful divine artifact.

Wang Bo naturally would not let such good things go.

On the other hand, when Wang Bo picked up the scepter, he immediately saw the entire image of the pyramid. All the permissions and functions of this temple were laid open before Wang Bo.

Wang Bo instantly understood that the scepter was the key to controlling the pyramid.

With this key in hand, he could use all the functions of the pyramid, even to fight enemies or suppress them.

Good stuff, really good stuff.

Wang Bo almost eagerly claimed the scepter as his own, making it his. From now on, he was the new master of the pyramid.

As for the Golden Man, Wang Bo collected him and turned him into his puppet.
