Online Game: I Started with Max Charisma and Caught the Goddess's Eye-Chapter 389: Enemies Meet, Anger Intensifies

Luca's familiar figure appeared not far from the evil dragon and Fuzzsir.

His timely arrival successfully blocked the evil dragon's fiery attack, thus saving Fuzzsir.

The evil dragon, enraged by its attack being intercepted by Luca, turned its fury toward him.

Its eyes gleamed with a dazzling light as it once again unleashed a stream of scorching flames from its mouth.

In the face of the evil dragon's attack, Luca appeared completely at ease.

He simply tossed the Starseeker in the direction of the evil dragon.

As the Starseeker flew, it completely neutralized the evil dragon's attack and absorbed the energy from the flames into the weapon itself.

"You're in no condition to continue. You should hide with Melania! Leave the battlefield to us!" Luca said with a smile to Fuzzsir.

It was at that same moment that Fuzzsir noticed large numbers of reinforcements had arrived at the outskirts of the battlefield.

These reinforcements had already begun engaging with the monsters.

Before Fuzzsir could respond, Melania arrived at his side.

She quickly helped him up, her tone full of concern as she said, "Luca's right! Leave it to them! Your only job now is to get some rest!"

Fuzzsir glanced at Melania and nodded indifferently.

Without another word, she led him away from the battlefield.

"You too!" Luca called out with a teasing tone to the others nearby. "If you don't want to fight, then get out of the way. I don't plan on saving any of you weaklings while I'm busy fighting monsters."

Luca had never held any respect for those around him.

The reason he looked down on them wasn't because of their lack of strength. Rather, it was because of how overly self-serving and shallow he found them.

The members of the Imperial Capital Guard were furious.

They felt that Luca's arrogance had gone too far.

Some of the guards even considered confronting Luca directly.

However, their commander swiftly intervened and stopped the soldiers.

"The priority right now is to defeat the monsters attacking the Imperial Capital! Let's not concern ourselves with anything else!" the commander ordered.

Following the commander's directive, the Imperial Capital Guard plunged back into the battle against the monsters.

Although they were doing their best, their performance was far from impressive.

On the other side of the battlefield, Zovland was feeling a bit hesitant.

On one hand, he wanted to throw himself into the fight like the Imperial Capital Guard, as that would demonstrate his resolve and effort to the higher-ups of the Federation.

But on the other hand, he also wanted to preserve his own strength.

After all, the conflict between Eastern Territory Morning Star and Northern Territory Morning Star had been escalating, and with Luca clearly targeting Northern Territory Morning Star, he had to think more carefully.

After hesitating for a while, Zovland finally spoke coldly.

"Since the others have already started their counterattacks, let's join in the fight against the monsters as well. But remember, do not engage in direct combat with the more powerful monsters. Leave those to others!"

The defensive forces of the Imperial Capital began to join in the counteroffensive against the monsters.

This made Luca view them a little more favorably.

"It seems these people still have some fighting spirit," Luca commented, before turning his gaze toward the battlefield not far away.

On the battlefield, Nova's artificially created monsters were wreaking havoc.

The performance of the artificial monsters far surpassed that of the real monsters.

This left Luca astonished.

If artificial monsters could perform like this, then if humanity gained the ability to mass-produce them, could the crisis that humanity faced be completely resolved?

Even if there were still certain nodes that allowed monsters to continuously arrive in the real world, humanity's overwhelming power would be able to quickly eliminate those monsters.

Luca even started to question his previous judgment.

Previously, he had seen the artificial monster technology as a very evil one.

Because it was uncontrollable, and in some ways, it required the harm of normal humans to create artificial monsters.

But it seemed like Zenith Technology Company had already solved the issue of the uncontrollability of artificial monsters.

Perhaps, before long, the other drawbacks would be solved as well.

As he was contemplating this, he suddenly felt the gaze of someone on him.

He looked in that direction and immediately saw Nova smiling at him.

Clearly, Nova had already guessed what he was thinking.

"Could this be another trap?" Luca had been wavering, but upon seeing Nova's expression, he quickly realized.

It was very likely that all of this was just an illusion created by Nova.

It seemed that Zenith Technology Company had only managed to make certain artificial monsters controllable.

"Forget about that for now! Let's just solve the monster horde problem first!" Luca finally decided not to dwell on his thoughts any longer.

He casually called the Starseeker back to him.

At this point, the Starseeker possessed immense power.

He directly activated the fire magic runes on his body. Under the guidance of the Starseeker, the fire magic runes immediately transformed the surrounding area into a fiery hell.

A large number of monsters let out agonizing cries.

Just a few seconds later, many of the monsters were reduced to ashes by the intense flames released by the fire magic runes.

Luca was very satisfied with his performance.

"It seems it won't be long before we eliminate all these monsters," he said, observing the situation around him. He then activated the shadow magic runes once again.

Of course, the Starseeker couldn't guide the power of the shadow magic runes, so he specifically used Obsidian to channel the shadow magic runes' power.

A wave of dark energy spread out from Luca's body, sending pulses of shadow energy outward.

As the shadow energy spread, Luca continued to move.

He hoped that by doing this, he could quickly wipe out all the monsters.

By the time he reached the front of Nova and the others, nearly all the surrounding monsters had already been exterminated.

Nova smiled at him and said, "Looks like we've solved the crisis the Imperial Capital was facing. We can return to the shelter now, right?"

"We can't say that yet!" Luca responded with a hint of concern in his eyes, glancing toward the distance.

Zenobia had appeared on the battlefield.

As soon as she appeared, she became the center of attention for everyone.

Zenobia's exquisite appearance stood in stark contrast to the evil power she wielded.

Everyone realized that the alluring woman approaching them possessed strength that should not be underestimated.

At this point, Luca was ready for battle.

However, he did not dare to take the initiative to attack.

He still didn't know just how powerful Zenobia really was.

Although the Sinful Divine Rank had nearly been completely destroyed, the power Zenobia had displayed not long ago still left Luca astonished.

While Nova also recognized that Zenobia wasn't someone easily dealt with, she believed that the strength on their side was strong enough to handle the threat.

When she looked at Luca, Nova suddenly noticed that his hand, which was holding his weapon, was slightly trembling.

"You look very nervous. Do you think we won't be able to defeat this woman?"

"Am I? Am I really nervous?" Luca instinctively denied it.

However, he quickly realized that his demeanor was indeed a bit tense.

"I just think it's strange for someone like her to appear on the battlefield. The power she possesses is probably beyond our expectations, so we absolutely cannot afford to let our guard down."

Luca quickly found a reason to convince Nova.

Nova slowly nodded, seemingly agreeing with him.

But in reality, Nova was even more confused. She felt that Luca must be withholding some important information from her.

While Nova and Luca were playing their game of subtle probing, Zenobia, who was steadily moving closer to Luca, finally recognized him.

She had finally confirmed that Luca was the one who had taken her divine rank from her, the one who had caused her to fall to this point.

"You've finally been found! I'll make sure you suffer a fate worse than death!"

Zenobia's voice came through with rage and madness.

Everyone was shocked. They had no idea who Zenobia was referring to.

However, some observant individuals instinctively turned their gaze toward Luca.

From their perspective, Luca seemed to be the most likely candidate.

Luca felt slightly embarrassed.

He couldn't possibly explain all the things he had done in the past.

So, he quickly turned to the others and said, "Get ready for battle! From the looks of it, she seems to have gone mad. She'll likely attack us very soon."

The group, filled with doubts, began to prepare for the battle.

However, what surprised everyone was that Zenobia didn't seem to take any of them seriously.

Zenobia immediately transformed into a massive human-headed serpent.

A thick purple mist surrounded the serpent's body, and numerous small snakes were constantly flicking their tongues on its head. From a distance, these snakes looked like hair.

"I will never let you escape again. I will make you suffer eternal torment!" Zenobia's eerie and terrifying voice rang out once more.

Luca, however, was not about to lose his composure due to her threats.

He had already made all the necessary preparations for battle.

As long as his allies fought alongside him, he felt confident that he wouldn't lose this fight.

However, Luca's allies were not as composed.

Even Nova, who had always been extremely confident, was now beginning to have second thoughts.
