While Luke was lying on the ground, seemingly unconscious battles went all the way in the Hall number 14. Waves after waves of cosmic energy affiliated with different divinities gushed and clashed against the shrinking walls of the Hall. Rex was also unconscious from the serious damage he suffered from the ' finger flick' of Luke. Blood was pouring down from all over his body, and he was swimming in his own blood.
Regarding Luke, it was different. The earlier blood river, which gushed from him, had now disappeared as if nothing like that happened before. A few seconds after him falling flat on the face on the ground, a mysterious cosmic energy ball had covered him like a protective shell. No one could see what's going inside this barrier.
Some thought he had become some kind of monster after using forbidden techniques against Rex and become a cocoon of energy. Other hunters who were in different halls never even got an idea about what's going on in 14th Hall.
As Rex had crashed to the wall, which was right behind him where he was lying, the wall's function to move automatically had been impaired and gone to an irreparable phase. Even though this was somewhat disappointing to the spectators, the earlier power display of Luke had kept them interested. Even most of the minor gods had become interested in Hall number 14.
The battles continued in different areas, and finally, only 8 people were left except for unconscious Luke and Rex.
Of course, the others were eliminated previously by Luke single handedly.
After some time, Rex woke up and coughed continuously for at least 5 minutes. Blood was spat out from his mouth. His clothes were also painted by blood, and it seemed he was trying his best to keep his mind clear. The earlier glistening eyes of him were now had become smaller, and the light they eliminated was the light of a weak person who lost everything in this world.
He crawled for some disatance and then saw the energy cocoon
" What the hell is that?" He gasped. As he was a specialist in barrier made up of cosmic energy, from a single class, he could see thousands and thousands of energy barriers made up of mysterious cosmic energy.
Suddenly, Almos's figure appeared from the holographic screen.
He looked around the hall with a grim look on his face. Even he had no knowledge about the cocoon, which was emitting golden energy. Even looking at him gave him goosebumps.
But soon, he regained his composure and looked at the remaining contestants who were covered in various slashes. All of the remaining had suffered from severe injuries and were panting heavily in various corners of the hall.
" Since there are only 9 contestants remaining, I declare that the round 1 of the 14th Hall is -"
But before he could finish, the sound of breaking glass crashed in. Everyone in that hall, including Almos, turned towards the energy cocoon that had cracks on its surface. In the beginning, the cracks on the shell of the cocoon were small, but these small cracks began to spread all over the cocoon. Golden energy rays were leaking from those cracks as if they were eager to show their power to the entire universe. The entire hall was silent, and everyone present was now observing its every moment with fear emanating from their eyes. They felt goosebumps as if something like an apex predator was about to emerge from the cocoon.
That's the power of the Brahnian species. And then it happened.
A volcanic eruption of golden energy blasted all over the surroundings. The building blocks of the hall were shattered, including the remaining walls. The earth was split and waves after waves of golden cosmic energy spread as if a hurricane of cosmic energy had descended. Soon, the roof of the hall began to crumble. Tons of heavy tocks crashed inside.
Contestants who were still inside the hall screamed and began to run in different directions to save their lives.
" Shit! Why the fuck do we have to bear all of these tortures?"
" Why was that monster in our competition?"
Rex who had no strength even to crawl screamed non stop.
" Oh, Goddess Hecate! My lady, please help this innocent sole warrior of yours! Give your strength to survive this curse from the heavens!" He screamed a prayer.
" Yeah, you never help me whenever I'm in need for your power! Why did you choose a warrior even if this was how you were going to treat him, in the first place?" And then he began to curse his goddess.
" Help the contestants! Don't let anyone die here!" Almos yelled.
Since the communicator had been broken, Almos had to coe in person to oversee this situation.
A few royal guards wielding powerful cosmic energy immediately entered and started evacuating the remaining people.
" Interesting! I have never seen something so magnificent in this life!" Almos muttered while looking at the high sky.
The golden symbol of the god of origin; infinity mark inside a triangle, was up on the sky illuminating the whole world. Every living being on the earth saw this fascinating scenario, which made them forget breathing. The symbol was emanating power and authority of an ancient divine being, as if it was trying to claim Earth as its own place.
And then the bright golden light disappeared, and the dust began to settle.
" What? Is he dead now?" Kemal asked in the VIP observation hall.
Hearing that everyone looked at Sasha, who was looking at the screen as if she had seen a ghost. She was standing like a stone statue.
" Hey! You! Athena's bitch! Answer my question!" Kemal demanded.
And then they saw her eyes becoming brightened and a smile appearing on her face along with a satisfying sigh.
" He is alive! HE IS ALIVE! I CAN AGAIN FEEL THE CONNECTION TO MY POWER!"
Sasha screamed and jumped happily like a little girl who just met with her long lost father.
" No way!" Kemal roared.
" No, it should be Athena. I think Athena helped him. She must have used some of her slutty tricks to save him from the backlash!"
" No, she didn't." Arnold who was silent all in these times finally spoke. His face had a grim expression and it was clear that even he had become flustered by Luke's show down.
" What? So he survived on his own?"
" Yeah, it should be the case. As far as I know, this golden energy wasn't the power of Athena. It was always blue."
Kemal looked at Arnold. And immediately his expression became ugly as if he had drunken a bottle of urine thinking it was water!
" Yes, It should be an innate ability."
An innate ability was some kind of strange power a hunter could wield after getting chosen by a god or a goddess. Apart from wielding the specific cosmic energy of the divinity he was chosen, he could wield his own cosmic energy. As they could wield two types of cosmic energy, they had two energy, they were considered as the most powerful and most potential among the hunters.
" I can now see why he was chosen as her new saint. Though she is a whore, still she knows how to find talents!" Arnold murmured in a low voice.
And then a beam of golden energy shot out from the crumbled hall. And inside that beam was a being that no one had ever seen before.
The being was a...
" Fuck is that a robot? Why is there a robot inside the hall?" A hunter screamed while getting helped by the royal guards.
Even Almos was shocked to the extent that he didn't know his mouth was almost reaching the floor.
The being had six white wings with decorations made up of golden material. A ring made from golden cosmic energy was behind his head, and his head seemed to be made up of white mechnical material as if it were the head of a robot. He had golden coloured eyes with no mouth, and all of his body parts were mechanical. His joints contained joints that were using cosmic energy as power. His whole body was made up of strange white material with golden decorations.
Although it seemed like he was a robot at the same time, they felt he was not. How can a robot be so much beautiful and emanate an aura of a mighty god?
Luke muttered," System, you better get your ass here!"

Luke closed and opened his eyes twice at the gold coloured holographic panel, which was floating before him.
And after reading the last line of the panel, his facial expression got ugly. His forehead was full of bulged veins.
" You fucking son of a bitch!" Luke roared.
