Chapter 1208 The difference between entanglement and instant kill, Surtur stunned by the attack.

“It’s done.” Ark removed the Infinity Gauntlet from Thanos’s left hand. “It went very smoothly, much easier than I expected.”

Thanks to Odin's son, Thor, whose axe strike not only severely injured Thanos but also created the perfect opportunity for Barnes to fire his gun.

Adding to the backlash from altering the laws of the universe, he was barely clinging to his last breath to escape back.

“A madman, he’s a madman.” Ramon shook his head with a sigh. “In his dream, after his body had almost recovered, he snapped his fingers again.”

"Eliminating the other half of life?" Naga asked in surprise. "That's insane! Does this mean the universe has returned to a primitive state?"

"No, he destroyed the Infinity Stones, using their energy to destroy all six Infinity Stones."

The reason for doing this was actually because they were worried someone would try to steal the six Infinity Stones and snap their fingers to save half of all life that had vanished from the universe.

“His concerns are valid,” Naga said, pursing her lips. “Isn’t that exactly what we’re doing right now?”

"The mission is complete, but what do we do with this guy?" Ramon asked hesitantly. "Should we just kill him?"

“I think it’s a good idea,” Naga agreed. “Although it’s half-dead, the blood of the Titans might be a good raw material and has research value.”

"Research value? Can you even keep up with the research?"

“I don’t have that talent, but Jane does!”

She's a master of potions; she'd definitely like these unusual things.

“No, we can’t kill him directly.” Ark said with a meaningful smile, “The reason our master is now in such a troublesome situation is all thanks to him.”

Death was a gift to him, especially in the beautiful dreams he wove—it was a luxurious way to die.

So...do you have any good ideas?

Ark smiled mysteriously, then stroked Thanos's left hand, and a highly damaged Infinity Gauntlet was slipped onto his left hand.

However, all six Infinity Stones disappeared, leaving only six empty slots.

"I understand." Ramon gave a thumbs up. "As expected of you, killing someone is nothing compared to destroying their spirit."

Could you explain that?

"Ark's intention was to make Thanos believe that what happened in the dream was reality."

The perfect timing is that your illness is real, and your poor physical condition won't give him any reason to doubt you, especially since he snapped his fingers again in his dream.

"Oh!" Naga nodded, seemingly understanding. "Isn't it too kind of you to let him spend the rest of his life in a lie?"

"This transformation magic will expire after we leave this universe, at which point he will understand what happened."

But he was powerless to change anything, unable even to leave this planet. "This place he specifically chose for his retirement will be the biggest prison of his remaining life; every day from now on will be spent in agony," Ark said with a meaningful smile.

"Hiss!" Naga gasped. "That's so vicious, so ruthless! You really know how to play the game!"

“You may have forgotten something. I don’t think I’ve ever been a good person,” Yak added with a faint smile. “More importantly, it’s about the master’s attitude. If we kill him before the master decides what to do with him, wouldn’t that make the master feel bored?”

“That’s settled then!” Ramon said. “Let’s leave here first and report to our master; he must be getting impatient.”

......

Asgard.

Just as Aaron was locked in a fierce battle with Surtur, he suddenly received a message from Ark, which startled him for a moment.

They defeated Thanos so easily, and got the Infinity Gauntlet and six Infinity Stones? It feels a bit unreal!

"Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!"

After regaining his senses, Aaron threw his head back and laughed heartily. His joyful laughter, filled with happiness and ease, echoed throughout Asgard.

Surtur stopped swinging his sword and looked at him with a puzzled expression. "Are you crazy?"

No, no, no, don't misunderstand.

I just thought of something funny, something to be happy about, hahaha..."

Aaron couldn't help but burst into laughter again. The six Infinity Stones were just a snap of the fingers in Thanos's hands, but in his hands, the true Heavenly Father, they were the power of a single universe.

Besides that, his first system task can basically be declared complete, and the five thousand magic points are already in his grasp, easily within his grasp.

Surtur was completely bewildered and seized the opportunity to swing his sword.

when!

This time, Aaron didn't rely on his speed to dodge, but instead summoned Star Abyss to retaliate.

The silver-white longsword instantly expanded countless times in his hand, colliding with the Twilight Sword and causing Surtur to stagger back half a step.

Before he could regain his footing, the falling silver sword blade left a long black gash on his arm.

Unlike any of his previous injuries, this wound possessed a strange, devouring power, which slowed Surtur down considerably.

Surtur blinked blankly, a sense of foreboding suddenly shooting from the soles of his feet to the top of his head.

He could clearly sense that Aaron had changed. If before he was playing along with him, now he was determined to kill him.

"What? Surprised?" Aaron said with a half-smile. "From the moment this sword was forged, it existed to kill gods."

"However... you could be even more surprised."

As soon as he finished speaking, several enormous golden magic circles rose up from beneath Aaron's feet.

Bathed in intense golden light, Aaron's body grew to an enormous size, almost the same size as Surtur.

"No, no, that's impossible."

“Shape magic, giantification,” Aaron explained casually. “I’m tired after playing with you for so long.”

There's no need to continue playing this game anymore, so please prepare to die.

"Arrogant!" Surtur shouted in a fit of rage, swinging his sword. "I don't believe you can dodge like you did before, given your size."

Aaron desperately raised his sword to block, and the moment the two giant artifacts collided, a terrifying shockwave swept across the ground, making Asgard, which was already overwhelmed, even worse.

"trouble."

Aaron cursed under his breath, and with a little force, he forced Surtur to retreat repeatedly.

"Avada eats the big melon!"

The green curse struck Surtur squarely in the chest, and the decaying death extinguished the flames on his chest, leaving traces of petrification that spread outwards from his chest.

However, it only lasted for a few seconds before the death energy was stopped by the flames.

At the same time, flame veins appeared on Surtur's chest, and other parts of his body transmitted energy through these veins, reigniting the flames on his chest.

“It’s no use, your magic can’t kill me,” Surtur said, his voice trembling with fear. “As long as the prophecy hasn’t come true, I can be resurrected no matter how many times I die, and each time I will be stronger than the last.”

"I know, and I'm also very grateful for the existence of this prophecy."

"To kill you, you need a special method, and I happen to have one." Aaron chuckled and flapped his wings as he charged toward Surtur.

At the same time, his pupils turned dark gold, and the Rabbit and Ox talismans continued to glow in his pupils, allowing him to unleash sound-barrier-breaking speed and earth-shattering power with his giant body.

"Come on!" Surtur charged forward with his sword, not to be outdone, but he was sent flying by an incredibly powerful force the moment they collided.

The Fire Giant King retreated rapidly like a red-hot meteor, flying out of Asgard in the blink of an eye.

Aaron followed closely behind, simultaneously activating seven abyss-level elemental magic arrays of blue, red, yellow, green, white, black, and purple, representing water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, and lightning.

Each magic circle was the size of a planet, and the moment it appeared, it stirred up an elemental storm, illuminating the dark universe.

boom!

Seven elements, powerful enough to destroy a planet, lined up and coalesced into a colorful torrent that engulfed Surtur, who was flying backward.

The terrifying energy propelled the Fire Giant King across several star systems, far away from Asgard.

Wherever it passed, countless meteorites turned into cosmic dust, planets were pierced directly, and stars trembled violently, as if they were about to explode.

"The ultimate technique of slaying dragons," Aaron said calmly, red flames emanating from the corner of his mouth.

His body underwent further dragonification, his hands and feet turned into black dragon claws, his dragon wings on his back expanded several times, and a dragon tail also grew from his back.

"Shiranui Type: Crimson Phoenix Sword"

As soon as he finished speaking, Aaron unleashed all his magic, his entire body wreathed in golden flames, and charged towards Surtur, holding the silver Star Abyss upright in front of him.

Rumble!

A violent explosion rang out, like a supernova bursting forth with endless light.

A terrifying force swept across the land, causing countless stars to fall and the laws of the universe to collapse.

Many spectators gasped at the sight, truly experiencing the power of the God of Magic.

Are the God of Magic and the Heavenly Father really of the same rank? Why is the former able to overpower the latter?

Fortunately, Surtur was immortal during Ragnarok; otherwise, an ordinary God Father would have died countless times over.

With this in mind, many powerful figures at the level of Godfather silently suppressed their own ulterior motives.

Although Aaron seemed to handle the battles in Asgard and Surtur with ease and displayed a variety of abilities, it was still within an acceptable range.

Surtur is a lucky individual who temporarily ascends to the level of a Celestial Father thanks to prophecy. After completing the mission of destroying Asgard, he will gradually revert to his original form.

To put it bluntly, he was just a temporary Godfather, and his actual power was probably not that great.

Aaron was able to fight him for so long largely because his so-called Fire Dragon Slayer physique had a natural advantage over Surtur.

Even so, he failed to truly kill Surtur, instead engaging him in a protracted struggle.

This inevitably led many spectators to make some misjudgments. The God of Magic is indeed more powerful than the Heavenly Father, but this power has certain limits and is not particularly outrageous.

Gaius's enemies are not just one or two; even ants can kill an elephant if they fight together. There's no reason why they couldn't take down a god of magic.

But the current situation is far beyond their comprehension. The God of Magic 'fighting' with the Heavenly Father and the God of Magic 'instantly killing' the Heavenly Father are completely different concepts.

They can accept a 'close fight', but they absolutely cannot accept a 'one-hit kill', because no one can guarantee that they won't be the one who gets one-hit kills.

As the flames from the explosion slowly dissipated, the skeleton of the Fire Giant King burned fiercely in the void.

Surtur, who had been killed once again, slowly revived, and bright golden flames gradually ignited in his pupils.

Memories of his death surged wildly through his mind, and Surtur looked at Aaron with a renewed sense of fear.

The ability to easily kill himself and obliterate his very essence—combined with these two things, he could clearly feel a huge "danger" character imprinted on his forehead.

"He's awake. This time, his resurrection took a little longer than the last time."

Can it be the same?

Last time at least he wasn't completely dead, but this time not even a whole corpse was left.

Surtur thought to himself, then looked at Aaron and asked, "Why? You clearly have such great power, why..."

"Why have I been playing with you for so long?" Aaron added with a smile, "Because before I kill you, I have to accomplish something first. Only after I accomplish this can I kill you without any worries."

"what's up?"

"I can't tell you that."

Aaron grinned, revealing his dragon-like sharp teeth.

With a roar, five magic circles of red, blue, yellow, green, and purple appeared in the void.

Five chains of different colors emerged from the magic circle, sealing Surtur's limbs and neck, imprisoning him in place, unable to move.

"What are you going to do?" Surtur asked, his voice trembling.

"You know perfectly well what I'm asking." Aaron curled his lip in disdain. "But this level of sealing doesn't seem quite enough."

"All petrified!"

"The force is released and the energy dissipates!"

"Tie them up tightly!"

......

After applying a series of binding and weakening spells to the chains, Aaron finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although this level of seal is somewhat rudimentary, as long as it is not damaged from the outside, Surtur will not be able to break through it in a short period of time.

“One last step.” Aaron raised his black dragon claw and plunged Star Abyss into Surtur’s chest.

puff!

A cold, stinging pain shot through his chest, and Surtur couldn't help but scream.

But what's worse is that he discovered his original power was being continuously absorbed by the sword, greatly slowing down his resurrection process.

"Take a deep breath, dizziness is normal."

"What the hell is this sword?" Surtur exclaimed in shock and anger.

"It's my dearest friend, my brother!" Aaron said half-jokingly. "When it was forged, my blood was incorporated into it, and the energy it absorbs will naturally replenish my magic power."

But its effects go far beyond that; perhaps someone will be unable to resist coming over to try it later, and then you might have the chance to see it for yourself.

"Alright, then, with gratitude to all the ingredients in this world, I'll begin."

Roar!

Aaron let out a deafening roar, and his entire body transformed into a black dragon.

His imposing physique, crimson eyes, sharp fangs and claws, sky-covering black wings, and mysterious runes on his scales all imbued him with an aura of majesty and oppression.
