Just call me Thor - Chapter 297

Chapter 297: Calderon’s peak strength
“Have you lived long enough?”

Faced with Calderon’s arrogant opening line, the Archdemon didn’t even have time to respond. Suddenly, the fifth demon god erupted with astonishing power and even took the initiative to attack Calderon!

“Don’t get cocky!” the fifth demon god roared, “Today, in this First Abyss, I will fight you to the death!!”

The other demon gods: ???

The fifth demon god continued to roar, “I am the Archdemon! The Archdemon is me!”

“For the past three hundred years, I’ve hidden my identity as the Archdemon to catch you humans off guard at a critical moment. Didn’t see that coming, did you?”

“I am the left brain of the Supreme Demon God!!”

Faced with the fifth demon god’s sudden claim to the Archdemon’s identity, the other demon gods were initially shocked but quickly calmed down. As absurd as it sounded, considering it was the fifth demon god, it somehow made sense.

The Archdemon looked at the fifth demon god standing in front of him, feeling a mix of emotions, both amused and exasperated.

“I…”

Archdemon started to speak but was cut off by the fifth demon god.

“Fifth demon god, you don’t need to say more, I understand!”

The fifth demon god declared righteously, “Who says only humans are unafraid of sacrifice? The demon race can also lay down their lives for their kin!”

His words were passionate and grand. If it weren’t known that the fifth demon god had a few screws loose, everyone might have believed him!

Calderon swatted the fifth demon god away like a fly, disdainfully saying, “If you really are the Supreme Demon God’s left brain, then his left brain must be underdeveloped, or maybe not developed at all.”

After dismissing the fifth demon god, Calderon refocused on the Archdemon. During this time, his aura continued to rise. The death of eight false bodies had led to a massive surge in the power of his true form!

At his peak, Calderon would possess the strength of level 1000, or even beyond! Though it would be brief, a single punch would be enough!

The Archdemon, now locked onto by Calderon, slowly walked towards his throne. Wherever his massive body passed, nearby demon creatures dropped dead. His mood was heavy; today would not end well.

Each demon god fully controlled a large abyss. They would also build a Demon Emperor’s Hall and establish a throne. Sitting on the throne, a demon god would fully grasp the abyss’s source, reaching their peak power.

Both sides were tacitly preparing, not making the first move but secretly gathering strength. Everyone knew that at this level of battle, there were only two outcomes:

The first was a one-sided crush, a quick kill, resolving the fight swiftly and decisively.

The second was a prolonged, drawn-out battle, potentially lasting a century.

Clearly, Calderon was aiming for the first scenario.

As the two main characters prepared, the second demon god grew restless. He sneered, “Calderon, what a scheme!”

According to Maxen, the necklace around his neck was a gift from Calderon when he was born. Calderon had used this necklace to break through the spatial barrier and reach the First Abyss.

In the demon gods’ minds, Calderon had always been the epitome of bravery without brains. But no one had expected Calderon to hide so deeply! He had been planning for hundreds of years, precisely calculating today’s situation! What a grand scheme!

The second demon god’s words made Calderon frown. He shouted at the second demon god, “Motherfucker, what are you talking about?”

The second demon god: …

That day, the demon gods were once again reminded of Calderon’s foul mouth. He had greeted the Archdemon by asking if he had lived long enough, then kindly suggested the fifth demon god see a brain doctor, and now he was using the simplest words to deliver the most extreme insults.

Calderon was truly exceptionally rude!

Given that Calderon really had the power to kill him, the second demon god didn’t dare to retort. He even patiently explained to Calderon, “I mean, your move using Maxen’s Tercentia to reach the First Abyss fooled all the demon gods. Impressive! Respect!”

“Really?” Calderon snorted disdainfully, “Your brain must be as messed up as the fifth demon god’s. You should get it checked.”

The demon gods: ???

Could they have guessed wrong?

Maxen also looked at Calderon, not understanding his meaning.

Calderon, being straightforward, had nothing to hide. He looked at Maxen seriously and said, “That Tercentia is indeed part of the black coffin. But I never intended for you to use it as a locator. How could I have known you’d be mucking around in some godforsaken place hundreds of years later?”

Makes sense!

Maxen recalled that he was in the First Abyss because someone had asked him to be there. That person was Thor, not Calderon!

But then Maxen was even more puzzled. If Calderon didn’t intend to use him as a locator, why give him the Tercentia?

“In this life, I must kill the Archdemon,” Calderon explained. “I wanted you to witness his death.”

Calderon’s answer left Maxen in silence. The black coffin could use Tercentia as a locator to break through space and reach the First Abyss. This meant that when Calderon activated the black coffin, it could attract Tercentia from afar, bringing Maxen to the First Abyss!

Calderon’s original plan was to fight his way to the First Abyss and directly hammer the Archdemon to death!

Who would’ve thought that by sheer luck, using Maxen’s Tercentia, he saved time and effort, skipping other abysses and going straight to the First Abyss.

Thinking about it, this was more in line with Calderon’s intelligence and character.

Looking at the Archdemon sitting on the throne, Calderon sneered, hoisting the black coffin with his left hand, and took a step forward.

This black coffin was his SSS-grade armor! It was crafted by Morpheus and later modified by Calderon into the black coffin.

With each step forward, Calderon’s aura doubled in strength! By the time he passed the second demon god, his power had reached level 999!

In eight steps, Calderon, carrying the black coffin, stood before the Archdemon.

At this moment, Calderon had reached the peak of his life’s power.

Fighting the Supreme Demon God might be a stretch, but fighting the Archdemon? More than enough!

In this peak battle, Calderon once again demonstrated his knack for bullying the weak.

No fancy moves. Calderon raised his fist and smashed it down with all his might.

“This punch, Killing Coffin!”
