Viktor knew he was no longer a player in the game, nor did he have to act entirely according to the players' fighting style.
Therefore, he stood quietly in place, watching Zeus gather his strength, while the thunderous roars filled the sky.
Until the shimmering yellow lightning in the sky rapidly gathered, it quickly formed a deep abyss wave composed of pure lightning power.
But these forces did not flow toward Zeus; instead, they seemed to be blocked by some mysterious force, hovering above Zeus's head.
Soon, above his head,
A colorless magic circle with only a faint, hazy outline suddenly activated, revealing its vast and enormous form.
The lightning bolts thus adhered to the magic circle, circling the patterns of the magic circle and forming rings of electric light.
Instead of feeling the familiar power flowing into my body, I was floating in the sky.
Zeus's gaze suddenly sharpened, becoming serious and surprised, with a hint of crisis flashing in his eyes.
"What? Another magic array!?"
"When exactly did it happen...?"
Before his shocked words could even finish, Viktor's indifferent voice rang out:
"Zeus".
Do you really think I know nothing about your heavenly realm?
Upon hearing this, Zeus was taken aback and turned to glare at Viktor.
Nobody knows how boring players will be during the off-season.
The Celestial Realm, a map accessible only to players who have completed the second playthrough of the story, has had all its settings thoroughly explored by players.
Especially here, with its futuristic technological design,
It has attracted countless players to delve deeper into the city, trying to find hidden Easter eggs within this celestial city.
After all, all the players who could reach the Celestial Realm had already completed their second playthrough, finished the original storyline, and had almost nothing left to do.
Even after players dug deep, they still couldn't find anything particularly special.
This can only be interpreted as the game designers' intention to create a celestial realm with a style completely different from the main world in order to shock the player's vision.
However, some of them did discover quite a few interesting things.
In the story, all the buildings in the celestial realm rely on the 'electricity' within Zeus's body to operate.
This also explains why Zeus in the first playthrough is far less powerful than he is in the second playthrough.
However, players have not found an effective way to restrain Zeus through this setting.
After all, once they ascend to the celestial realm, they will have to fight against the gods, and players simply cannot be fully prepared.
But as I said before, Viktor isn't a player, so he doesn't need to follow the rules that players follow.
“I’ve been lying in wait on your turf for a whole year.”
“You haven’t found any trace of me all year.”
Viktor spoke slowly, his words revealing indifference and confidence, even with a hint of sarcasm.
At his level, his physical abilities have reached the limits of human capabilities.
Even without food or water, they can sustain life for more than a month simply by breathing.
Moreover, as a mage, he also possesses his own spatial magic.
So for the rest of the year, Victor stayed in the heavens.
Having become familiar with the map, he inscribed the entire map within his magic circle.
He had been waiting for such an opportunity.
Waiting for Zeus to unleash his power, thereby activating the entire celestial realm.
At this moment, more and more lightning bolts emerged from the surrounding collapsed and shattered buildings, and the electricity in the sky also rapidly fell.
Thousands of strands of lightning patterns climbed up the barrier and soon converged into a huge vortex.
Using this electricity, Victor activated more and more magic arrays.
Each magic circle interlocks and links with the others, radiating a dazzling light.
Buzzing—
The light and resonance conjured by the magic grew stronger, and in the blink of an eye, the entire celestial city was engulfed in light.
At the same time, the shattered buildings and the ground trembled and shook violently.
They were all activated by the power of Zeus.
Upon witnessing this, Zeus turned pale, his expression gradually turning to fear.
His voice trembled as he questioned Viktor.
"What...what exactly do you want to do..."
"I am the God-King, tell me your purpose!"
"We can cooperate!"
At this point, Zeus's voice cracked due to the intense fear surging within him, and his body trembled uncontrollably.
After all, Zeus, who could have used lightning to fight back, suddenly realized that he had lost control of his power.
Even his own power was stolen by others and used as a weapon against him.
This feeling is like a child taking a gun from an adult and pointing it at him.
Seeing Zeus growing increasingly panicked, even forgetting to resist, Victor shook his head in disappointment.
"I had always thought that you gods would have some differences from humans."
"But all I see is your arrogance, which even surpasses that of humankind."
Even on your deathbed, you couldn't let go of your pride as a god-king.
He suddenly raised his head, his eyes turning cold and indifferent, his gaze as if fixed on a dying man.
"Just as I thought, you have never been some noble gods."
"Just a few who were lucky enough to gain eternal power—"
"people."
The next second, a massive amount of lightning seemed to be summoned, spreading out from above Zeus's head and surging towards the magic circles surrounding the city.
One by one, the magic circles were activated by lightning. They began to rotate and twist, their patterns connecting tightly, unleashing unparalleled and boundless magical power.
