Chapter 1677 - 784: God of Giants (Double-length, Part 3)
Soon, he entered the cemetery, and an ancient and profound aura rushed toward him.
Looking around, it was empty all around, with only countless debris. The ground was engraved with intricate patterns, indicating that a very great Giant was likely buried here.
"God of Giants."
The doll suddenly spoke.
"This is the cemetery of the God of Giants."
Rod exclaimed, "How do you know?"
"Look at these patterns; they are runic badges of the Giant Clan, a manifestation of the Giant Source Law in the designs, usually to signify identity. It has a special ring structure—the more powerful the Giant, the more numerous these structures. Ordinary Giants have 2 to 3, Elite Warriors have 5 to 6, Priests have 9, the King of Giants has 12 or 15, the Giant Ancestor has 25, but this one has 99. Such an extraordinary number can only belong to the legendary God of Giants."
Rod keenly noted the numerical issue: "Is the ring structure related to the strength of the Source Law?"
"It used to be, but later it degraded into a symbol of honor, representing only identity."
At this moment, the Book of Knowledge suddenly cried, "Master, there’s a line of text over there!"
Rod hurried over and quickly saw a line of text in Giant language on a peculiar trapezoidal platform.
"Protector of the Giant Clan, the great God of Giants, lies here in eternal rest."
"I, Ehaius, will lead the Giant Clan forward and shall defeat the twisted Law of Darkness."
Ehaius is indeed the Giant Ancestor. This suggests that the God of Giants and the Giant Ancestor were two different individuals. Ehaius likely inherited from the God of Giants, leading the Giant Clan to prosperity, thus becoming the Giant Ancestor.
Until later when he fell, his body was locked in the great mountain of time and was eventually dismembered for unknown reasons.
But it was evident that the body of the God of Giants had long met the same fate. The cemetery was empty, with nothing left. And from the soul of the Starry Sky Devourer Amidala, he learned that the body of the God of Giants was made into thirteen Destruction Weapons by the Supreme Will.
Rod slightly frowned, feeling puzzled. If, as Asa said, the Supreme Will is the source of everything, releasing the Black Fog to attempt world destruction and rebirth in darkness, when did the God of Giants die? Why did he die? Why did the Supreme Will wait until he died to take his body?
There must be some critical points he had not figured out.
Just then, Rod suddenly noticed a strange skull on the trapezoidal platform.
It seemed to be a human skull by appearance.
Why is there a human skull here?
Rod reached out, intending to pick it up, but at the touch, it crumbled to ash completely.
The next moment, a shadow dropped from above, and a booming voice echoed through the entire coffin.
"Who dares to disturb the eternal rest of the God of Giants?"
Rod instantly readied his Spiritual Energy, into combat state, but the moment he saw the shadow, his pupils vibrated.
Isn’t this Giant King Omir?
He had seen him in the Phantom of the Giant God Power and was quite familiar with his appearance.
"I am the True King from the Fire Kingdom Trolian, I..."
Rod attempted to communicate but quickly realized the chaos in the eyes of the shadow. Thick Source Black Fog corroded every part, releasing terrible pollution from its form.
The Book of Knowledge shouted: "That’s a polluted shadow, long since fallen into madness, cannot communicate!"
The shadow spread its arms, and level 17 Spiritual Energy surged, the Field of the Root Origin unfolded.
"Intruder, you shall face Divine Punishment!"
The battle began in an instant.
Rod was shocked to discover that the shadow’s Spiritual Energy strength was about 10 million marks, similar to his, but its Root Origin strength exceeded his by more than tenfold, nearly double his own.
"How can there be such a grotesque existence?"
Upon first engagement, Rod found the pressure far greater than expected. The shadow attacked fiercely, with extreme speed, gathering or bursting Spiritual Energy, more like a powerful human True King than a monster.
The most troublesome part was Rod suddenly realizing he couldn’t activate the Giant God Power.
The Book of Knowledge cried out: "Master, your Source Law is suppressed; his Source Law is also that of a Giant, and the Giant God Power is sealed in this Domain."
Rod had never encountered such a situation, finding it somewhat tricky but not worrying.
Because he had Destroying Darkness, while unable to defeat the shadow for now, the shadow likewise couldn’t inflict fatal harm. As long as it was a stalemate, the shadow’s defense would eventually collapse.
Moreover, with the presence of Bright Red Tears and Blood Contract Revival, his soul resilience was extremely strong, and his Spiritual Energy deep and inexhaustible, he could fight indefinitely.
However, unexpectedly, halfway through the battle, the shadow suddenly delivered a heavy strike that evaded him, then soared to the trapezoidal platform, raising its arms high.
"Oh God of Giants, please grant me the power to defeat the intruder."
A formless gray energy flashed across the space, and its Spiritual Energy strength instantly doubled, surging to 20 million marks.
"My brethren, please join me in defeating the intruder."
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Rod was appalled to find innumerable Giant corpses crawling up from the ground, their bodies heavily decayed, black putrid flesh hanging on their colossal skeletons, appearing extremely horrifying.
