Chapter 890: Top-quality Ingredients, Boss Fang Personally Cooks New Orleans Grilled Chicken Wings!?

The wound was expanding continuously, and the Valkyrie Isabella had scarcely ever sustained such a grievous injury.

Though it healed unceasingly under the support of Isabella’s colossal divine power, the violently excruciating pain nearly drove her to madness.

At this moment, the Blade of Olympus was drawn once more; the power of the Blades of Chaos was not enough to harm her foundation, but this impending strike made her feel the threat of demise!

Indeed, if this blade had not appeared, she could have ensured the opponent possessed not the slightest chance of victory, capable only of suppressing her temporarily.

Yet the appearance of this blade meant any temporary suppression could transform into the final blow!

She already understood the opponent's intent; only someone truly wishing to slaughter a god would reserve power for this ultimate strike.

Furthermore, it appeared remarkably proficient, with the amount of remaining divine power calculated well in advance.

Under the lethal threat, the Valkyrie Isabella erupted with nearly two hundred percent of her power and potential, gathering her entire body’s divine might and unleashing it fiercely.

In an instant, an immense surge of divine power burst forth, like a blazing sun exploding or a planet dying; perhaps... she had reposed in comfort upon her divine throne for too long, but when an eternal and grand existence truly faced a mortal peril, their desire to survive was countless times stronger than anyone else's!

The power unleashed was likewise terrifying to behold.

The vast divine power erupted outward, and even with the Blade of Olympus blocking it, he was violently blown away, crashing into the mountain behind that had nearly collapsed into ruins, smashing countless boulders into dust!

A shrill, piercing shriek rang out, the sound nearly rupturing human eardrums.

Covered in blood, Isabella crawled up from the ground, the golden blood spilled across the floor flowing backward, and her two wings slowly rose, restoring her to her original state in a mere instant.

She knew in her heart that if she did not kill this mortal today, she would surely fall here; golden flames, like the raging wrath of a god, enveloped her body, and just as the opponent crawled out of the ruins, before he could stand firm, she crashed into him like a streak of flowing light.

Once again, she slammed him into the mountain.

“Haah—!” With a furious roar, countless sword lights slashed down, instantly cleaving the entire great mountain into a canyon crisscrossed with innumerable sword scars!

Her wings flapped, accompanied by a clear cry as she soared into the nine heavens, a sword plunging down from beyond the clouds, then piercing fiercely into the mountain burying Kratos with a force that could destroy heaven and earth.

Looking down from high above, across a radius of hundreds of miles, the earth cracked apart in patches, collapsing and sinking, like a world-ending calamity brought down by a deity, intending to destroy the entire continent!

The surrounding mountains, under the impact of this terrifying divine power, all collapsed and crumbled into ruin, smoke and dust dispersing as this range of mountains, beneath that terrifying strike, transformed into an incredibly vast basin.

And within these mountains, no matter how powerful the magical beasts were, at this moment, none left even bones behind; in the fissures of the cracked earth, lava spewed forth like the roar of the land.

There was no longer any sign of life in the surroundings.

A look of gradually settling shock finally appeared on the Valkyrie Isabella’s face: “He should be dead... right?”

Faced with the fear of death, there was also an extreme thrill in walking the edge of demise, a completely new sensation she had never experienced before; this feeling was simply...

“Splendid!” At this moment, she seemed to truly feel how beautiful the world was, how magnificent and majestic heaven and earth were, and how splendid life could be.

Regrettably, the dead have no way to witness it.

But in the very next moment, she suddenly felt the earth shudder violently, nearly knocking her to the ground.

Immediately afterward, a figure flew out from underground like a cannonball, anger spreading in all directions like blazing fire.

“How... is he not dead yet?!” Isabella opened her mouth wide, staring at the God of War before her who seemed to have returned from hell; why... why couldn't this man be killed?!

However... I cannot be killed either! Thinking of this, the Valkyrie Isabella settled her mind slightly: “He must be consuming divine power to heal his wounds, his divine power is already weakening, as long as I can endure longer, I will surely kill this human!”

Following that, she raised her sword and charged forward once more.

But... just as she slashed down with her sword again, an surging divine power like a vast ocean swelled within his body, and a terrifying thunderstorm instantly centered on him, sweeping across all directions!

Poseidon’s Rage!

“Magic...?! This damned human is actually proficient in magic as well!” The power originating from the Sea God actually deflected her sword, and immediately after, a golden thunderbolt condensed in Kratos’s palm!

Wings spreading, he flew into the high sky, the golden lightning turning into a massive golden thunderball around his body, with countless golden thunderbolts dancing wildly within its center.

“Ah—!” Accompanied by a series of shrill screams, thunder, fire, wind, ice... the Valkyrie Isabella seemed to receive the baptism of the twelve main Olympian gods in an instant, tasting them all.

“No... as long as I am not touched by that blade, I am immortal and indestructible!” She forced herself to rally her spirits, “One more time, I can definitely kill this human—!”

Her body, nearly charred by fire and lightning, restored itself once more; she actually broke through the magic of these deities, gathering all her strength, and stabbed her sword viciously toward Kratos’s chest.

“Clang!”

“Clang!”

“Clang!”

Accompanied by the deafening clash of metal, strike followed strike like a torrential downpour.

...

At this time, inside the shop in Canglan City.

“Huh...? Why is the owner nowhere to be seen?”

“Just saw Kratos fighting that powerful Valkyrie, why is there no news at all now?”

“Haven't seen anyone return either...” Several elves, while helping the knights guarding the city restore order, gazed toward the distance.

...

Meanwhile, on the battlefield at this moment.

“Again—!” The Valkyrie Isabella’s eyes flashed with a burning light, the injuries all over her body restoring once more.

“Again—!” Yet another time, she had just been pinned beneath Kratos, beaten until covered in blood by punch after punch, managing to crawl out with great difficulty.

“Again—!” Once more!

“I can feel the divine power within you gradually vanishing,” the Valkyrie Isabella said, “One more time, and you are finished!”

At this moment, the data streams in Kratos’s eyes grew faint and fitful, and his divine power was also dropping sharply.

“One more sword, the final dawn!” Isabella’s sword was entirely covered in infinite sword light, and then, she slashed down fiercely!

Boom!

The Blade of Olympus in Kratos’s hand actually grew faint under this strike, as if about to collapse; an item of single-use divine weaponry, this defective piece clearly could no longer hold out!

Synchronization about to end! Synchronization about to end!

“You are finished!” She actually saw Kratos’s figure becoming translucent, and without hesitation, she thrust her sword out again!

Both of their bodies were similarly covered in blood, but she saw that Kratos seemed nearly unable to maintain his form.

This battle would surely be her victory, because this bit of divine power was completely insufficient to support that divine blade!

“Hah—!” The Kratos before her used nearly all his strength just to push her away; his divine power had indeed reached its limit.

She was bound to win!

“You are truly strong.” Isabella was also breathing heavily, as if even her colossal divine power was insufficient to sustain such consumption, “If we possessed equal power, I would absolutely be no match for you; thank you for allowing me to learn so much.”

She held her greatsword high, looking at Kratos before her, who was completely unable to maintain his physical form and flickered uncertainly, seemingly intending to deliver the final blow: “So, do you have any last words?”

Although her combat capability was slightly inferior to Kratos's, by relying on her immense divine power, she had stubbornly endured until Fang Qi’s synchronization ended!

And the end of Fang Qi’s synchronization meant that doom had arrived!

“Do you have any last words?” Seeing the opponent holding the divine sword high, standing before him with majestic divine authority, Fang Qi merely pointed behind her.

“What do you want to say?!”

System Panel: Carrying Stone activated.

Immediately after, behind Isabella, a Kratos holding the Blade of Olympus lifted her up by her wings, just like picking up a little chick.

With a violent yank, the two wings were once again savagely torn away.

How is there another one?! And the divine power surging from his body is even more magnificent than the one before?!

"Ah—! Ah—! Ah—!"

As if she had seen a ghost, she shrieked repeatedly, fear drowning her like a rising tide! She could not fathom what was happening.

Could it be... that the one just now wasn't the true body, and now the true form has descended?!

Immediately following that, as she was hoisted into the air, the Blade of Olympus pierced straight through her chest!

"Ah—!"

Silence fell, and she stirred no more.

Only then did Boss Fang collapse onto the ground with a heavy thud: "Is she finally dead this time?"

If she still wasn't dead after this, Boss Fang felt that he might be the one to die.

"Slaying a god is truly difficult..." He wiped away his sweat, and at that moment, Kratos, summoned by the anchor stone, cast a cold glance over the battlefield before vanishing.

He seemed bewildered: Why is this god already dead the moment I came out?!

Meanwhile, far away in the heavenly realm, within a valley overflowing with pristine blossoms.

It was deep and serene, the very place... where a deity was born.

A bell chimed, and a golden flame ignited within the divine pool at the center of the valley; not a single soul was around, only a breathless silence.

Within the pool flowed a wondrous golden liquid, surging and swaying, akin to a cradle of life.

The divine fire blazed, burning fiercer and fiercer until, finally, a flawless body was born from the flames...

All elegant curves, winding like beautiful mountains, as spotless as the finest white jade...

Across endless eons, this primordial goddess had accumulated countless means to preserve her life, allowing a wisp of her divine soul to be reborn here.

Her face bore an expression of profound weakness as she collapsed into the pool, yet she did not forget to summon the very last speck of her divine power to look down upon the mortal realm.

This was her first defeat, and it was impossible to tell what she was feeling at this moment.

Back in the shop within the City of Canglan, Boss Fang was holding a pair of wings he had torn from somewhere.

"Huh?! Boss, what is this?!" A group of elves was the first to crowd around to watch, followed closely by a throng of Saint-level powerhouses and knights.

The pair of wings shimmered with brilliant light, clearly a remarkably formidable divine artifact.

"Premium ingredients. Everyone worked hard today, so this boss will personally cook and make you all some New Orleans roasted chicken wings!"

On the spot, Isabella's vision went black, and she fainted from sheer rage...
