The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2540

Chapter 2540 What It Feels Like To Be A God Karsten could feel an obvious change in him after he reached Level Nine. It was as if he had everything under his feet, and he saw everyone else as nothing but maggots. I feel like I am in control of the entire world. That was what it felt like to be a deity. It was the same sensation the Gods in Restricted Area 76 experienced. They were too strong, and it created an illusion of them being holy beings living among mortals. That was how Karsten felt at that moment. He was no longer interested in Dark Emperor and the others anymore. Before powering up, he wanted to challenge himself, but reaching Level Nine made him feel as though he would be facing three ants. He lost all enthusiasm and passion. Lab of Gods got in touch with Karsten immediately after the latter left Restricted Area 76. The former insisted that Karsten shouldn't be bothered by social cues and must kill Dark Emperor and the rest despite their generous gifts. Karsten answered, “Don't worry. I will deal with all three of them. Their blood will signal the birth of my newfound power, and I will make a ritual out of it. I have emerged a new man, and I must kill a few people to celebrate the occasion.” Lab of Gods sighed a breath of relief after hearing Karsten's affirmative response. That would save them the trouble of cleaning up the mess. Karsten walked away slowly. He held the crystal tightly in his hand and sighed before saying, “What is this? The energy it contained is simply too great. I only managed to absorb a quarter of its energy even though I have been working hard these past three days. It will take me some time before I can finish absorbing everything in it!” The news of Karsten leaving Restricted Area 76 was shared everywhere. The entire world cheered once more, and the focus was mostly on World Summit. Everyone got excited, and their spirit was lifted. That caused a ruckus and woke Levi up. “What's wrong? Did something happen?” asked Levi. “Karsten has left Restricted Area 76, and the rumor is that he has reached Level Nine of the Divine Extraction Technique,” replied Zoey. “The annoying thing is that everyone thinks that my master only gave Karsten that crystal to butter Karsten up. They say that my master is scared and wants to make it difficult for Karsten to attack,” added Zoey. “You know, I actually think that makes sense. Why else would someone help their enemy become stronger? This is way beyond a friendly boost.” “That's right. The Dark Emperor is strong, but I don't think he is that strong.” “Yeah, he must be scared of Karsten and is bowing down to the latter.” Kirin and the others shared their opinions on the matter. Zoey was the disciple, but she couldn't defend her master either. “Oh, puh-lease. That Karsten can't scare anyone. Come help me up. I'd like to see how much he has improved,” said Levi. He was starting to get a little excited. If Karsten absorbed all of the energy in the crystal and the resources in Restricted Area 76, his Divine Extraction Technique should be at its best... That would be almost on par with Level Nine of the Iron Golem Technique, and that would at least pique Levi's interest. That was why Levi was excited. “Everyone is saying that Dark Emperor and his friends are still too scared and will continue cowering in the dark.” “Honestly, I agree with their statements. Dark Emperor and the others will never show up and will put Karsten on the top of the Divine Leaderboard without a fight. That way, everyone can leave unscathed.” Everyone started discussing the matter. Levi ignored all of them, though. He simply exited the room. Everything was already in a mess outside the room. Karsten was approaching the place as well. He had kept his aura contained, and it was no longer as intimidating as it was earlier. However, his posture suggested that he was much stronger. He had truly grown exponentially. It was as though he had changed into a different person. The power from Level Eight of the Divine Extraction Technique was completely different from Level Nine of the same technique. At that moment, Karsten was considered a skilled fighter. He saw everyone as a lesser being. “Hmm!” Karsten had constrained his aura, but everyone could still sense the pressure. It was almost as strong as the pressure they sensed three days ago, and it was so overwhelming that some were having a hard time breathing. It was as if Karsten had turned into a black hole, and his mere presence threatened to absorb the spectators' soul. They could feel an inclination to walk forward. That got their expression to change sharply, and they sweated nervously. Karsten had truly frightened them. Astonished gasps filled the place. “That's it? That's all you can do?” A man with a different opinion blurted his thoughts.
