The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 408 Sea of Colossal Lightning Monsters

”Are those knights?” Klaus muttered, gazing up at the sky, which was filled with thousands of tribulation monsters, chains, and knights wielding swords.

”This is ridiculous,” Klaus said, unable to believe his eyes. The first level of the tower was unleashing monsters—thousands of them pouring out as if there was no end.

The second level was raining down chains that, according to the senior, were both lethal and full of energy. Of course, Klaus focused on the energy-rich aspect; he needed it to form more cores.

Two cores had already formed, and the third was beginning. Despite the continuous flow of monsters emerging from the tower, they stood no chance against the TPP. It was drawing them in like a magnet or a black hole.

In a sense, it did share similarities with a black hole, swallowing them while the second Paragon Star Diagram did its work. The formation of the third core was already underway, and Klaus felt a surge of happiness and strength.

His body was now filled with energy, and as the four spirit weapons continued to move at the command of his thoughts, more runes flowed into his body.

However, the third level, now raining down knights wielding swords, caught Klaus off guard. The last time the third level had taken action, it was chains that emerged. Yet today, these figures, although similar, appeared to him as knights.

[Brat, I have expanded the Tribulation Prison to 60 square kilometers; you can now extend the TPP to cover a wider area.]

Klaus smiled as he heard the senior use the abbreviation he had come up with for the Tribulation Prison Portal.

The senior, of course, ignored him. Klaus knew he was concerned about karma, but to him, karma was the least of his worries.

”I need to stretch my limbs,” Klaus said, forming a hand seal. The TPP expanded slightly, now covering half of the tribulation ground and leaving the other half for the spirit weapons.

The two 64-inch Void Piercing Needles were doing their job, piercing through the bodies of the monsters as if tearing through the void.

Naturally, this was how the needles were meant to work, or more accurately, it was the nature of the technique—the Void Piercing Needle. Klaus didnʼt know if he would ever fully master it, but for now, he needed it for the tribulation, and it was working wonders.

The Crescent Disc was the same, zipping through the monsters as if there was no tomorrow. Klaus wasnʼt using any technique for it; he was simply spinning it, and like the moon, it sliced through the monsters as easily as tofu.

The last one was also doing its job. The Razor Disc was similar to the Crescent Disc, but it moved in the horizontal direction, unlike the Crescent Disc, which moved and killed in a vertical format.

”Let me stretch my limbs a bit. Iʼll be back soon,” Klaus said to Queenie, who was encased in the Bell. Klaus wasnʼt concerned about her safety, considering she wasnʼt visible to the heavens.

However, covering her with the Bell of Harrows, which released sonic attacks, made him feel better inside.

His lightning wings burst open, and a spear appeared in his hand. Before anyone could blink, Klaus was in the air, slaying monsters. Trails of lightning and tribulation runes followed him.

”Iʼve seen many things, but this is just unbelievable,” Queen Lunara said, looking up at Klaus as he drove his spear through the monsters, bursting them apart as if they were made of balloons.

”You think I would fall in love with just anyone?” Ohema smiled, watching Klaus decimate the heavens like some kind of lightning god.

He was a bath of lightning, and monsters kept bursting apart everywhere he passed.

”How strong is his mental strength? How can he be controlling four spirit weapons and still fighting in close combat at the same time?” Queen Lunara just couldnʼt believe her eyes anymore.

”Like I said, Mother, if you donʼt want the moon race to perish, it would be best to seize this opportunity and form a strong alliance with the two down there.

”Queenie might recover from her situation if Klaus manages to pass the tribulation—of course, I know he will. So when it happens, you can form that alliance, which I know will be easy considering you are her mother and also his mother-in-law.

”Trust me, you donʼt want to listen to those grand elders who think they are above everyone,” Ohema said.

”You make it sound like he holds some influence in the human world. Werenʼt you the same person who said only your sister and her friends hold that much power?” Queen Lunara asked.

In truth, Ohema was sent to Earth to blend in and start building an empire for them while keeping an eye out for potential threats. Of course, knowing that her sister was the strongest on Earth, she knew she had to influence her somehow.

But that all changed when she set her eyes on Klaus. Back then, she was just curious, but after spending just a day with him, she started to fall for him.

Then it happened. Now, she doesnʼt want her people to fight with Klausʼs people, as that would be bad for both sides.

Of course, her mother can be easily swayed. The Grand Elders, on the other hand, are a different story. They donʼt want to ally with the humans; they want to rule them. So they planned to attack, which was a better strategy than a few months ago.

Even the queen supported it, but things are different now.

”Klaus doesnʼt have much power at the moment, Mother, but give him a few years, and you will see. That being said, Queenie will be on the same level as you once she breaks through, and knowing Klaus, she will become several times stronger than you in just a few years.

”So, Mother, use this tribulation as an eye-opener to talk to those seven. If they donʼt want retribution, they should start crafting a speech that would convince those two to ally with them.

”I hold enough influence down there to ensure our people transition to Earth without much difficulty. After all, that was why you sent me there in the first place,” Ohema said to her mother before turning to Klaus, who was moving through the air, killing lightning monsters like Craxy.

Her mother looked at her, then at Klaus, and then at Queenie, before sighing. If she was being honest with herself, she knew what her daughter said was the truth.

There are 500,000 of them on the moon, and if they were to go to war with the humans, they would incur too many casualties, which, in the end, would be disastrous for them.

After all, a moon-born can only birth one child, and thatʼs all—unless, of course, you manage to birth twins like she did.

She needed to be queen and make sure her people got the best. After casting a sidelong glance at the proud Ohema, she disappeared and reappeared beside the seven Grand Elders. It was time to make a decision.

Of course, the tribulation continues.
