Chapter 1114 - 524: Mortal Cleverness?

Chapter 1114: Chapter 524: Mortal Cleverness?

He was still on his way to ascension, trying not to act recklessly without using his own power.

To be safe, he borrowed power twice this time.

"However, at the moment, it seems that dealing with this guy only with their help is already enough."

He thought to himself, raised his hand, and summoned the water elements in the sky.

Soon, in the Northern Lands where snow falls all year round, an unexpected cold raindrop fell.

That raindrop landed on the Sand Giant’s head, making a crisp sound.

Plink.

"Rain?"

The God of Sand and Stone snapped out of it and looked up at the dark clouds in the sky.

What greeted Him was a suddenly intensified downpour.

Crash!

The cold rain fell from the sky, beating recklessly on His face.

The torrential rain relentlessly showered over the Sandstone Giant’s body, drenching Him completely.

The giant’s body, condensed from sand and stone, quickly became heavy, and even began to collapse in some areas.

Faced with this situation, the God of Sand and Stone frowned.

However, this wasn’t because such a method was effective against Him.

It was because He felt insulted.

"Is this your method?"

The God of Sand and Stone looked down at the serious expression of the mortal, a nameless anger rising in His heart.

You dare to underestimate me?

It’s not that Herbert was delusional.

For an ordinary Sand Giant, such a method is indeed effective, and might even easily crumble them.

Ordinary Sandstone Giants are almost immune to most physical attacks; unless their core is destroyed, they remain unscathed even if their limbs are severed.

Conversely, their resistance to elemental damage, especially water elemental damage, is almost zero, easily turning into a mire under the scour of water elements, exposing their core effortlessly.

But, He is a Divine being.

Such childish mortal methods are utterly meaningless to Him.

"Trivial little tricks."

"Really, boring, utterly boring!"

The God of Sand and Stone let out a low growl; the initially collapsed sand and stone began to float in the air, quickly returning to their original position.

Rustle...

Simultaneously, as the body of the Sandstone Giant expanded, the liquid on its surface was instantly absorbed, like a sponge soaking up water, merging into the sand and stone.

Within a few breaths, all of the mortal’s previous efforts turned into nothing.

Moreover, this was not the end.

The God of Sand and Stone wanted to clearly demonstrate to the mortal the vast difference between them!

In the eyes of the mortals watching here, an alarming change was occurring.

Those raindrops, still in liquid form, rapidly solidified within the Sandstone Giant’s body, emitting dense, myriad sounds.

Crack crack!

When all the sounds of ice cracking stopped, the entire Sandstone Giant transformed into another form.

The previously somewhat loose body became extremely rigid, the surface shimmering with a layer of blue shine, appearing several times more powerful than before.

After being washed by the rain, the Sandstone Giant not only was not weakened, but instead greatly enhanced, directly evolving into an icy version of the Sandstone Giant.

An already powerful defense became even more formidable; now, even if a Legendary Warrior tried to pierce with a sword, it would likely only leave a white spot on the frozen surface.

This is the mighty power of the Divine.

Though perhaps foolish, in terms of power, He lacks not a bit, a genuinely powerful Divine.

"Now, what methods do you have left? How do you intend to defeat me?"

Having easily thwarted the mortal’s futile struggle, the Divine lowered His head, wanting to savor the mortal’s expression at this moment.

Unsurprisingly, He saw the mortal seemingly completely unprepared for the scene unfolding before him.

Although not quite despairing yet, it was enough to make Him feel pleased.

"Having lost His assistance, now that you realize your own weakness, how do you feel?"

Despite posturing before mortals being somewhat disgraceful, the pleasure at this moment was enough to vent the grievances accumulated within Him over this period.

Because He knew, at this moment, the audience wasn’t just this mere mortal, but the entire world watching here.

He would restore His image in the world’s eyes!

Just as the God of Sand and Stone, satisfied with His plans, prepared to perform to the end, the dazed mortal finally snapped out of it.

"How does it feel?"

He blinked, repeating these heart-stirring words, then... nearly failed to maintain his expression.

"You’re asking me how I feel now? Well, that truly is wonderful!"

At that moment, the Godslayer, who should have come to terms with reality, showed a reflective smile on his always tense face.

Herbert sighed deeply, his thoughts now aligning perfectly with the God of Sand and Stone’s - this guy truly was a nice person!

"I was still worried about what to do if you didn’t cooperate... but you just went ahead and helped me directly all the way."

Indeed, no matter how hard a villain tries, they’re still outdone by a fool’s spontaneous insight.

Today was certainly enlightening.

Encountered fools, encountered wicked ones, encountered those who are both foolish and wicked, but never met one like you whose heart is kind yet intelligence remains uncertain... uh, wait.

Herbert paused, stroked his chin, wanting to say more but stopped.

Have I really never met someone like this?

Hmm, it’s hard to say, overall challenging to evaluate.

"Hmm?"

The God of Sand and Stone watched Herbert after uttering an inexplicable sentence, fall into silence again, feeling His patience was about to wear thin.
