Becoming a Saint Seiya since the Age of Mythology

Considering the unpredictable nature of the sound waves' attack, Degel decisively chose to launch a preemptive attack, hoping to disrupt his opponent's playing rhythm.

He knew very well that if a musician were allowed to play a complete piece, the consequences would be unpredictable.

At the same time, by launching the offensive first, he can attract the opponent's attention as much as possible, creating an opportunity for Carlodia, who is hiding in the shadows.

"Diamond Star"

He threw a powerful punch, and an extremely cold beam of light shot out immediately.

Wherever the beam of light passed, the moisture in the air instantly condensed, turning into sharp ice spikes, which, under the sweep of the extremely cold beam, poured down like a torrential rain.

A Specter blocking the way was caught off guard and struck by one of the ice spikes. His Surplice shattered instantly, but before the fragments could fall to the ground, he was frozen solid by the extreme cold light and turned into an ice sculpture.

But that wasn't the end. Another ice spike struck the unfortunate man, shattering the entire ice sculpture and leaving him with no remains.

Sensing the immense power of this attack, Pharaoh dared not block it head-on. He retreated rapidly while gathering his cosmos power and the strings of his harp.

"I don't know how you found this place!"

"But now that you're here, don't leave!"

"Leave your souls to repent before Lord Hades, you despicable Saints!"

"Screaming of Fear"

As he spoke, he plucked the strings forcefully, and the harp immediately emitted a piercing sound, as if someone had seen something terrifying and screamed, and a purple sound wave rushed towards the extreme cold light.

Bang bang bang!

The force of their collision shattered the ice cone in mid-air, sending countless ice shards flying in all directions.

Although it is just ice shavings, its hardness is comparable to that of diamonds.

Such high-speed splashing also possesses considerable destructive power.

Some Specters who were nearby were hit by the splashing ice shards, and their Surplice was immediately riddled with visible holes. One of them was even pierced through the body and died on the spot.

The other Specters were not idle either. While keeping their distance, they all launched their own attacks, preparing to cooperate with Tian Shouxing to besiege the Gold Saint who dared to break into the enemy camp alone.

In an instant, all sorts of attacks from the Specters converged into one, sweeping towards Degel like a colorful storm.

Chapter 236 Destruction Failed

Seeing that all the Specters were focused on him, Degel had finally achieved his goal.

He immediately retreated and quickly set up a defensive barrier in front of him.

Ice Shield

As the cold air was released from his hands, it quickly condensed into a thick, semi-circular ice wall, trapping him inside.

Rumble!

The attacks of numerous Specters landed on it, but they failed to break through it at all, only shaking some ice shards off the surface of the ice wall.

"A bunch of useless trash!"

Upon seeing this, Celestial Beast Star Pharaoh couldn't help but curse angrily.

With so many people working together, they still couldn't break through the opponent's defenses; it's utterly incompetent.

"Get out of my way!"

After dismissing his numerous subordinates who were blocking his way, Pharaoh plucked the strings once more and played an ancient melody.

He was prepared to break through Degel's defenses in one fell swoop.

Meanwhile, taking advantage of the fact that many of the Specters were being held back by their friends, Cardia concealed his aura, bypassed the edge of the battlefield, and accelerated toward the magic circle in the center of the cave.

Unfortunately, for the average person, this underground cave is large enough to hold tens of thousands of people without any problem.

However, if we consider it a battlefield, a battlefield for extraordinary individuals, then it seems too small.

In an area of ​​just over a thousand square meters, even a Bronze Saint could run back and forth several times in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, it was not easy for Caludia to avoid other people and enter the center of the cave in such a 'narrow' space.

He had only sprinted halfway when he was spotted by another Specter not far away.

"Oh no, there's another Gold Saint here!" the man shouted a warning and immediately launched an attack.

"Rancid Breath"

He took a deep breath and then exhaled a stream of black gas toward Cardia.

A foul stench wafted from afar, and Caldia was immediately disgusted. Without any thought of resisting, he sped up and left it behind.

Upon hearing the warning, the other Specters who were besieging Degel were immediately startled.

Following the sound, a golden figure landed in the center of the cave, at the core of the magic array.

"Oh no! Stop him!"

At that moment, Pharaoh could no longer deal with Degel and immediately turned around and rushed over.

"Your ambitions end here!"

Cardia shouted, locked onto one of the nodes of the magic circle, then burned his cosmos and slammed down with all his might.

boom!

With a deafening roar, the entire ground trembled violently, and a powerful shockwave spread out from Cardia.

Some of the Specters who were relatively close rushed forward, but before they could even touch Cardia, they were blasted away by the impact.

However, as the fluctuations subsided, Caludia witnessed an incredible result.

The magic array node that he punched with all his might remained intact, and even the ground itself was undamaged. Only the ground outside the magic array cracked open.

"Damn it, it's a barrier!"

Sensing a protective shield enveloping the magic circle, Carlodia immediately understood everything.

It must have been his punch that triggered the protective mechanism of the magic array.

This also means that the entire magic array is nearing completion and will soon be put into use.

At this moment, Pharaoh of the Celestial Beast Star had already arrived at the scene.

The panic from before was gone from his face. Instead, he sneered and said, "Don't waste your energy! This magic array is powered by a sacred object bestowed by Lord Thanatos. Ordinary people simply cannot destroy it!"

As he spoke, he plucked the strings forcefully, producing an extremely piercing sound, almost like the scream of an ordinary person after being frightened.

"Screaming of Fear"

In an instant, a purple sonic wave surged forth, engulfing Cardia.

Scarlet Needle

Sensing the danger behind him, Cardia did not hesitate and pointed a finger at the Celestial Beast Star.

The sharp red needle instantly pierced through the sonic wave and struck the Heavenly Beast Star behind it.

"Ah-"

The Heavenly Beast Star let out a miserable scream and involuntarily staggered back several steps.

In fact, the actual lethality of that needle prick wasn't very strong, but it seemed to amplify his pain, increasing the agony of the needle prick by hundreds or thousands of times.

This also caused him, who had already awakened the seventh sense, to be somewhat overwhelmed.

On the other side, because the needles failed to completely block the opponent's attack, Cardia was also hit head-on by that sonic wave.

"Um--"

Caludia groaned, involuntarily taking two steps back and quickly clutching his chest.

He felt that the music from the Heavenly Beast Star had a special kind of magic, as if it could target a person's heart.

His heart suddenly started racing, and a wave of fear and unease washed over him.

"Damn it, have I run into another opponent who has a great ability to restrain me?" After regaining his footing, he looked at the Heavenly Beast Star with a more solemn expression.

At this moment, Pharaoh also noticed the strangeness on Cardia.

Because he has a deep understanding of the human heart, he can judge a person's physical condition just by looking at their heartbeat.

"It seems you're not feeling too well, Scorpio!" Recognizing that it was the Gold Saint of Scorpio, he said with a forced smile, and tentatively plucked the strings again.

Hey~

As the music began, he could clearly feel that the heartbeat of the Scorpio opposite him was also affected, and his expression became very unnatural.

"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony!"

"Leave your heart behind, Scorpio!"

Having definitively confirmed that Caludia had a heart problem, Pharaoh decisively began to pluck the strings and play.

Ding Ding Ding ~

As the strings were plucked, an ancient melody resounded across the battlefield.

Upon hearing this, one of the Specters felt his heart pounding so hard it felt like it was about to jump out of his chest.

Deliberately targeted by Pharaoh, Cardia, who already had a heart condition, could no longer hold on and immediately clutched his chest and collapsed to his knees in pain.

He felt like his heart was about to explode!

"Do not--"

"How can I collapse here!"

"I also need to protect everyone, protect everyone!"

"At least, I can't just die here in such a miserable state!"

He gritted his teeth, then raised his trembling right hand and pointed his sharp red index fingernail at his heart.

Just then, a golden figure shot in from afar.

Before Cardia could react, a cold hand landed on his shoulder, and a chilling aura flowed into his body, quickly calming his feverish and wildly beating heart.

Aquarius Degel arrived.

"Now is not the time to fight to the death, Cardia!"
