Chapter 217: Olympus


    Adam flew toward the heavens, quite literally, at top speed, not fearing for a single second he would be attacked. He was sure the gods of Olympus were aware of him, but he couldn''t care less.


    As Adam was in the middle of flying toward Olympus, a bolt of lightning suddenly appeared of seemingly nowhere above Adam, striking toward him.


    Seeing this, Adam only looked up with disdain. This wasn''t even real lightning, that bolt was far from a real lightning bolt in term of speed and power.


    Actually, conjuring a real lightning bolt asked a great power and deep understanding of the Advanced Concept of Lightning or Sovereign Concept of Wind.


    From the look of things, Zeus'' understanding of the Advanced Concept of Lightning was very shallow as Adam had absolutely no problem following that bolt of lightning and reacting to it. Inparison, he himself was able tounch a lightning bolt that had the speed of a real lightning bolt, with a slightly lesser power.


    As the lightning was falling toward him, Adam waved his hand once, sending another lightning bolt toward the falling one.


    Zeus'' attack was pierced through and barely offered any resistance as Adam''s attack went right through it and zigzagged toward the sky at a breakneck speed. The lightning bolt disappeared in the clouds as it made a loud sound, as if it had hit something.


    And indeed, in the next instant a few pieces of rubble began falling from the sky. A single attack of his had damaged Olympus, they had been quite cheap when they built it


    Annoyed by the clouds above him, Adam clenched his fist as mes appeared around it, and Adam punched toward the sky.


    The fire fist quickly erged itself as it flew up and it hit theyer of clouds. In front of the powerful fire first, the clouds dispersed in an instant, finally revealing the pce of the Greek Gods, Olympus.


    It looked quite majestic, as it shined in a golden color with precious gems here and there. However, Adam''s fire fist had also hit the pce, and it did quite some damage, melting theyer of gold below the pce as well as some gems.


    The pce suddenly turned a little uglier, and Adam as well as everyone within Athens heard a cold growl "Puny mortal, how dare you behave so atrociously!"


    Adam rolled his eyes and opened a portal next to him and entered through it.


    The moment he did, he extended his right hand and caught an arrow. He had appeared in Olympus, the pce of the gods. Adam could see several tables with aplenty of food on them, and a group of people were staring at him with different expressions.


    He turned toward one of the women who was looking at him in shock, and said "I guess you must be Artemis, Goddess of the Hunt." As he said that, he crushed the arrow in his hand and sent a powerful mind attack at the goddess.


    The moment she was hit the goddess'' face turned pale as she cried out in pain and fell to the ground.


    Adam sneered as he looked at the rest of the Olympians and said "Honestly, I expected more than that. Since you have to courage to call yourself gods I thought you would all be Golden Idols, but you turn out to be so disappointing."


    Indeed, the majority of them were only Nascent Souls, or Heroes! But on second thoughts, it wasn''t that surprising, the strength one gained from the power of faith depended on two things, the strength of the user before they took the power for themselves, and the amount of faith they gathered. Not all the gods could receive as much faith.


    Disappointingly, out of the Olympians, the only Golden Idols were Zeus and Poseidon.


    Lightning surged around Zeus as he said with clenched teeth and fists "How dare you attack my daughter in front of me!"


    Adam met the cold gaze of Zeus and said "An example needs to be made, and a rapist like you would be the best."


    As he said that, lightning also appeared around his body, but it was much more powerful than Zeus''. Before the god of the sky had the time to attack, Adam disappeared from the spot as he appeared in front of Zeus, a trail of lightning behind him.


    More importantly, Adam''s fist, which was covered in fire, was a few centimeters away from Zeus'' face. Zeus'' face turned into shock as he tried to defend himself but he wasn''t quick enough, and the fist smacked his face.


    Zeus'' silver eyebrows and beard were burned as he was sent flying backwards, a tooth and some blood falling off his mouth as he flew backwards. He smashed against the wall of Olympus which offered almost no resistance as he smashed through it and appeared in another hall.


    At the same time, Adam protected his right side with his arm, just in time as a trident was about to pierce his side.


    But most to everyone''s disbelief, when the trident was about to hit Adam''s arm, it''s tip seemed to distort and itpletely missed Adam, going past him. This, in turn,pletely opened Poseidon''s defence to Adam who grabbed his by the throat and crushed it.


    But Poseidon was a Golden Idol, and he could survive from such an injury, although it heavily injured him. As Poseidon tried to stab him, Adam threw him in the direction where Zeus was sent flying, just in time to shield Adam from a bolt of lightning as thick as a human.


    The Space Concept was really a rare one, and few knew of it''s effects. When he defended himself from Poseidon, Adam had used a skill he had created using the Space Concept which distorted the space around his body.


    Moreover, this was the real world where a single error could lead to one''s death. Were they in Epoch, since Poseidon would have been protected by the system, Adam would only have been able to deal a limited amount of damage.


    But here, on Earth, the damage Adam could deal and receive was very different, if the vital points were hit then killing the other wasn''t difficult.


    The only reason Poseidon had survived was thanks to his great vitality. But taking Zeus'' full powered attack had made his condition even worse and he was truly on the verge of dying now.


    Adam appeared next to him and kicked him with great force toward Zeus, who was flying in the sky behind him. As he kicked the god of the see he felt his ribs break from the impact and the god was sent flying toward Zeus.


    Zeus didn''t even try to catch his blood brother, barely looking at him with disdain before focusing back on Adam.


    Adam raised an eyebrow but said nothing. First he sent out a powerful spirit attack toward the other Olympians who were hesitating whether to attack him or not, sending them all to the ground crying in pain.


    On Earth, the effects of the Spirit Concept were much more potent than in Epoch as it wasn''t restricted, and it was of great use to Adam.


    Now that he was sure the other Olympians wouldn''t bother him, Adam flew toward Zeus and the falling Poseidon, and activated [Inferno], creating a dome of incredibly hot mes in a radius of 100 meters.


    Zeus, who was in a rtively good shape, put up a barrier using arge part of his power, but his barrier began melting at a visible speed.


    But Poseidon, who had his neck broken and his body still flooded with lightning, couldn''t even put up a protection as the mes covered his entire body and burned arge part of his body. Poseidon, the great god of the sea feared for hundreds of years had died a miserable death, not even able to put up a fight.


    Adam extended his hand toward the corpse of the god, attracting it toward him. Zeus tried to stop him, but Adam sent a fire fist toward him. In Inferno, all fire skills were twice as strong, so Zeus had to use his full power to defend from that attack, before he took a hard decision and let himself get hit.


    While the attack hurt him deeply, it allowed him to fly away from the dome of fire that had been destroying his barrier at a scary speed.


    Meanwhile, Poseidon''s corpsended in Adam''s hand, who confirmed he was dead by trying to put his corpse in the Blood Tower. When he felt the corpse enter, he understood the god was really dead.


    He couldn''t help but sigh at their weakness. They were much weaker than he had thought they would be. Even though they were the equivalent of Legends, they were actually weaker than Tazolos. Zeus would be second to Tazolos only, but Poseidon


    Any of the Higher Demons above Level 190 could probably defeat him if no one had any equipment on. This time, they had really disappointed Adam.


    However, it also had to be said that the element of surprise was what had really killed Poseidon.
