"Okay, this is not sounding too good..." Ud said, as he watched Xan Bie's body blow apart from the excessive Mana in the area...

...but wait...

If NeoZerdius paid attention, he'd notice that there were a few lights shining through Ud's clothing, from his chest... four of them, to be exact. The position was odd, but it was rather star-shaped...

"So, what do we do now?" Undine asked, while Wisp seemed to have a smile on his face.

"I think I get it... well, let's stick with the plan," he said, and Ud grinned.

"Hey, giant shrimpman! The bet is still up, you know!" he taunted, even as a block of earth as big as a house flew upwards, towards NeoZerdius. At the crater below, Land Umber prepared another attack.

The other God-Beasts, however, were waiting...

All of the attacks slammed against NeoZerdius and had absolutely no effect...

... huh? When Fiegmund collided into the shield, the shield glowed red and seemed to have static going through it, losing a bit of power...

... and then, in a flash of light, the thin layer of ice melted from NeoZerdius's armor and turned into pure energy. Soon enough, the shield was glowing yellow as the energy turned into an aura of electrical currents...

"Excellent... you have courage..." stated NeoZerdius, grinning. "... fine then. I shall unleash all of my power, now..."

The massive creature stretched his hands and...

FLASH!

There was a blinding flash of light as NeoZerdius shut down his shield... and turned dark blue from the sheer amount of pure, raw Mana flowing inside of him! It was absolutely crazy! It was as if the entire armor had turned into pure magical energy... and seemed not so metallic anymore...

"I will show you the limits of Mana... Come to me..." said NeoZerdius, stretching his wings and now floating above the ground, his aura so powerful that it would probably cause any being in a large radius to overload with magical energy just by standing near him.

The star of darkness in the sky grew closer... The sky... it has turned red...

"Forfeit?" Ud repeated, blinking. His voice had sounded... different?

He turned towards the others. "Hey, guys, is he saying you are too weak to fight against him?" he asked, and several angry expressions followed.

"WHAAAT?! I'll show him who's weak! I'm going to go over there, and burn his metallic body until it's nothing but scrap! Scrap I tell you! SCRAP!!!" Salamando roared, his body becoming ablaze. Xan Bie screeched, before doing another Explosion.

"That metallic shrimp is going to fear the day he messed with us! Summon Land Umber now, Ud!" Gnome told the boy, who began concentrating again.

"Nobody calls me weak! The power of Light is strong! We're going to prove it by beating you!" Wisp stated, a bright light flaring around him.

"You are arrogant. Even if that is believable, such arrogance can be the downfall of anyone. Yours especially," Shade said in a dark tone, the darkness around him growing stronger.

"WOOOSH! You're going to suffer for the destruction of the God-Beasts! Even if you destroy all of them, we'll just up the ante!" Jinn screamed, the winds around them picking up their pace.

"I... I'm not a quitter! Neither of us are! We won't give up... we'll fight to the end if we have to!" Dryad cried, her green aura flaring.

"We trust Ud with our lives... and he won't accept defeat just because things seem to be getting worse! We'll show you!" Luna told him, as Dolan tried to smash his body against his foe's.

"You will pay for your taunting, and quite certainly! Now attack him!" Undine finally screamed, as Fiegmund jumped at NeoZerdius, at full speed, before entering a wheel position, and colliding hard against his opponent.

After all that, a rumbling sound began coming from the ground, as the seventh orb shone and disappeared...

The shield's power errupted like a volcano, causing the explosion to be swallowed and to vanish. The radiations of this energy spike also caused the distorted image of the moon to be dispelled before it could take any effects.

With the power unleashed, the shield begun to change... and solidified itself. Intensely cold freezing winds now orbited NeoZerdius as the shield turned into a thin layer of frozen hydrogen...

"Not very good at identifying my shielding device's element, aren't you?" commented NeoZerdius, his three eyes locked on Ud's frame. "Maybe you should listen to Dryad and stop playing heroes. There is no shame in losing to a superior foe. I have no interest in destroying you... so if you forfeit now, I shall stop the world-destroying meteor I created and leave quietly." said the being.

The fear of his foes was to NeoZerdius the now obvious proof that his opponents were clearly no match for his ultimate form. Although he DID enjoy fighting... slaughtering foes who don't even stand a chance has no meaning to him. Besides... he already got the data he needs.

... although... it would be interesting to see if desesperation might make hidden powers reveal themselves. After all... considering that Ud is a being who wield the powers of the Mana Goddess, he must most probably have a hidden edge that would make him greatly superior in many ways...

Dangaard and Mispolm were destroyed by the attack, the earthquake being enough to harm them significantly... and, well, it didn't help that Mispolm was just below Dangaard, who didn't manage to avoid the atack in time. Fiegmund was sent flying away, but landed safely several meters away. In fact... he was already trying to run back again. Xan Bie was pushed back by the sound wave, but was fine.

"Oh no! He's right! What are we going to do?!" Dryad panicked, but Luna just held her, calming her down.

"Relax. I think we'll be okay. Just trust Ud, dear..." she told her, while Ud began focusing once again. It seemed like the barrier surrounding the Spirits, for now, held tight...

With a loud howl, the yellow orb cracked, and out came the huge God-Beast of the Moon, Dolan, jumping onto the fray. While still smaller than NeoZerdius, it by far was taller than all the other creatures... and, in fact, seemed to be as fierce as its height!

With another howl, the image of a moon appeared over NeoZerdius... before being spun into a spiral and twisted. Xan Bie fired another Explosion, as well.

All of the attacks disappeared when they came into contact with NeoZerdius's shield, inflicting strictly no damage.

"What a waste... well, I grow bored of this..." stated the giant as he made a gesture toward the speeding moon.

... the sky was beginning to change color and the moon was beginning to grow notably bigger...

"See? You have no time... especially not for... THIS!"

NeoZerdius moved so quickly that it caused a massive sound wave, a massive wind as tall as NeoZerdius (and he's pretty tall!) being sent foward as he moved so quickly he seemed to teleport right next to Dangaard before slamming his right fist, which was several times Daangard's size, into said God-Beast with enough strength to turn a sky scraper the size of the Empire State Building into a pancake on impact!

Of course, such a powerful punch, regardless of if it misses or connect, will cause a massive earthquake when it will strike the ground, causing a shockwave basically as tall as a five stories-tall building to sent in all directions with enough strength to break down a concrete wall.

As the punch was executed, the shield begun to fluctuate in a strange way, seemingly transforming into a stream of waves of sorts, all producing a strange wind around NeoZerdius... like a repetitive screech that no one could hear...

"Hey, I think we're doing something!" Salamando told them, and the others groaned at his obviousness.

"Yes, we are. We are trying to bring more God-Beasts onto this world. Now can you go and do something again?!" Undine snapped at Ud, who just laughed and focused. The other blue orb shone, before the God-Beast appeared from inside it. The monstrous two-headed bird, Dangaard, flew towards NeoZerdius' face, before emmitting a loud scream from both heads... loud enough to harm, even!

Xan Bie tried summoning the fire stones again, Fiegmund created a large copy of itself and sent it crashing at NeoZerdius, and Mispolm tried to whip him with a large, pointy and spiky vine.

The waterfall and pineapple disappeared as it came into contact with NeoZerdius's shield, seemingly causing no damage...

... but the fire stones, however, did seem to make the force field go a bit unstable after each stone struck, causing an explosion.

When the whole storm of fire stones finished colliding, the shield still seemed as strong as it was before... or almost. Looks like damage was actually inflicted!

The mechanical entity stood there, closing its eyes, and then, wrapped its huge mechanical wings around itself for some reason as it waited for who knows what...

The shield begun to change... and now, glowing in an eerie purple glow...

Ud looked upwards, surprised. "Hey... didn't we see something like that in the elvish land?"

The spirits blinked. "Maybe..." Wisp suggested, but then, Gnome blinked.

"Wait... a whole of two hours? That's too much time! We can't go off in a world-savin' quest in only about two hours!" he complained, and the other spirits sweatdropped.

"Great, he's on another bender..." Jinn considered, amused. Ud, however, turned towards NeoZerdius.

"Hey, shrimpman! I bet you can't beat all of my summon creatures faster than I can create them!" he taunted, laughing funnily, even as he concentrated on Dryad. Once done, a bright light emanated from the orb, and from out of it came the pumpkin-looking creature, Mispolm. It laughed evilly, before throwing a... pineapple?

Similarly, Fiegmund and Xan Bie, once they snapped out of the shock, went straight onto attacking; the ice wolf created a large waterfall that fell upwards instead of downwards, from right below NeoZerdius, while the fire serpent created dozens of large explosive stones, that collided right on him.

NeoZerdius closed his three eyes and...

FWOOOOOOOOOSH!

The MASSIVE amount of magic was sent into the sky, cutting its way through the clouds!

... and then, the energy slammed straight into something that became visible... a moon?

But then, the moon begun to glow red... and seemed to get bigger... and bigger... and bigger...

NeoZerdius, drained of the magic energy, now glowing in a faint orange light, like an infant flame, turned to his foes, smirking. "You got two hours..."

Ud blinked, as he saw NeoZerdius was fading. "Huh? Did we win?"

Undine slapped her head. "No! Of course not! He resisted a lot more than that - do you think he's going to fall just from that?"

"Well, he could," Ud explained, and the spirits sighed.

"Luna, will you please?" Wisp requested, and the Moon Spirit nodded, before energizing herself.

"Very well. AURA WAVE!" she chanted, before flaring a bright light around Ud, and then an aura surrounded him.

"Wow, thanks, Luna!"

Meanwhile, the God-Beasts stood on guard, as if awaiting...

The ice spheres slammed against NeoZerdius's shielding... but sadly, had the same effect as small pebbles falling on top of a tank ; very little if at all.

The explosion, it, was totally and entirely absorbed, doing strictly no damage.

NeoZerdius continued to cast his spell. The magic gathered was now absolutely unbelievable, his entire frame glowing in a faint, green light that flowed so slowly yet quickly at the same time, shining silently and quietly...

The arcane symbols on the circles around the massive armored being begun to fade... the spell was about to be casted...

Fiegmund howled, raising its neck up high... as dozens of small ice stones were flying, aimed at NeoZerdius. They collided against him hard, although dealing no extra damage yet. Xan Bie then used another Explosion, trying to harm him.

Meanwhile, Ud was just staring, eyes wide.

NeoZerdius said nothing, deciding to act instead.

Absolutely HUMONGOUS amounts of magical energy were being drawn to NeoZerdius! In fact, so much energy was being gathered that one could see the MASSIVE streams of glowing energy all gathering into NeoZerdius, which was now glowing in a blinding almost white blue light!

A MASSIVE arcane circle appeared near the massive robot, showing that it was casting a spell... and it was going to be something really, REALLY strong.

Xan Bie created a small sphere of fire around itself, as energy began surrounding it and the floor nearby. It was not close to NeoZerdius, and soon, the ground exploded, forming a small lava lake, about the size of NeoZerdius' foot. Diving as soon as it was done, it disappeared inside it, leaving the others to fend for themselves.

Lightgazer just made a loud screech, irate, and ready to strike again, but the missiles found it first.

A large explosion took his place, and as the smoke cleared out, not even the remains could be seen. It had pretty much obliterated it.

As for Xan Bie, the furnace absorbed every single missile aimed at it, glowing with magical power... and, when the last one struck it, it exploded messily. However, Xan Bie was still there, a grin in its wicked face.

While Ud laughed at that, Undine appeared in front of him. "Be serious, now! We need more help!" she snapped at him, and he immediately saluted.

"Sir, yes, sir! Hahaha!" he laughed, before focusing on the Water Spirit. Energy converged on her, and the blue orb shone, before out of it came the next creature. Ice crystals turned into one being... the ferocious Fiegmund!

Snarling, it glared at NeoZerdius, waiting...

NeoZerdius, seeing the summoned monsters getting tired of waiting, thrown away his cards and chess board. "Fine..."

The Saint Beam slammed straight into NeoZerdius and so did the explosion!... but strangely, there wasn't even a scratch. In fact, the shield didn't seem to weaken at all.

NeoZerdius held his hands... "All of you... let's see what you can do against... THIS!"

FWOOOOOOOOOSH!!!

NeoZerdius's shoulders opened and a MASSIVE cloud of homing missiles was fired from both shoulders. Hundreds and hundreds of explosive weapons were sent flying toward Lightgazer and Xen Bie at high speed!... but those weren't ordinary missiles.

Those were green energy missiles made of an unknown energy type that ignored most types of shields and resistances, striking for shockingly obscene non-elemental damage. The fact that they had advanced homing capabilities, flew at break-neck speed, and had been fired in a sufficiently high number to instantly clean up a crowded battlefield wasn't helping.

"Mock waht?" Ud asked, blinking. "I don't mock, I am mockery itself! My name is Udder Nonsense, for that is I!"

At that moment, all the Spirits sweatdropped, but then recovered easily. True, they were used to his antics, it was just... he caught them off-guard, was all.

However, both Lightgazer and Xan Bie were tired of waiting... and they attacked again! Lightgazer fired the Saint Beam again, while Xan Bie concentrated energy around himself, before exploding... and the damage was sent straight at NeoZerdius!

NeoZerdius stood there, patiently. "Good... so you mock me. Fine. I can play this game."

NeoZerdius winded up, aimed and then...

... took out a set of playing cards?!?

"So you want to play this game? Fine! I like games. What about a card game?... or maybe..." he took out a chess board (complete with pieces) with his other hand. "... some game of chess? Really, if you want to be stupid, then so be it. I don't mind. I'm THAT bored."

Ud listened to him with about the same attention a goldfish had.

Which meant very little.

"Hey, mister shrimpman! What are all your abilities supposed to be? Can you turn into a vehicle? A car? A boat? A plane? A spaceship? A carboat? A boatplane? A carplane? A carboatplane? A carspaceship? A boatspaceship? A planespaceship? A carboatspaceship? A boatplanespaceship? A carplanespaceship? A carboatplanespaceship? What are carboatplanespaceships, anyway? Can you drive them on regular roads? On rocky roads? On candy roads? Do they taste like candy? Does space candy taste like rocky candy? Do we have space candy? Are there aliens in them? I can't draw, can I just win already? What about..."

Surprisingly, this went on for quite a while... and could go on for even longer, even. However, if Ud hadn't droned him into some other state of mind, this ought to spark a suspicion.

Or... he could be just joking; who knew with Ud?

NeoZerdius smirked. "I am happy to see that you like the looks of my new form... and yes, I am a... superior... being. I am not a god... well, maybe I am... but I am unlike any deity you have seen before. I am not... bound... by the rules of your world nor any world. In fact... you could call me a... rule-maker..."

The creature remained there, waiting patiently...

"Also, yes, I went easy on you the whole time. You see... I am not exactely weak... and as such, I tend to defeat my foes very, verrrry quickly... which become tiresome and boring after a while. So... I left you chances... but now, considering your strenght, I don't see purpose into holding back anymore. If it is your desire, we might resume this fight..."

At this moment, his grin widened... "... but I would like to warn you. I am verrrry powerful and it is probable I will use attacks which might left you wordless... and in a pretty bad shape too! If you think you had enough, then I'll be willing to call it a draw..."
