Chapter 134 Fallen Angel
Roy looked around as he flew in the air. After a while, his eyes lit up, and he dived down.
Below him was a s.p.a.cious street. Normally, it would be lively with people coming and going, but because of the sudden war, the street was already devastated. Human corpses were everywhere, some houses were burning, and the survivors were trembling as they hid in dark corners.
Bang! Roy broke the door of a store on the street and entered. He saw all kinds of books and magazines in a mess on the ground.
It was a bookstore. After Roy barged in, he immediately searched for what he wanted in these piles of books.
He found it, a world map-a world map of Earth.
However, Roy was disappointed when he opened the map and saw the design on it. This was because the land of this Earth was completely different from the one he had in his memory!
Even the names of the countries, the geographical locations, and the division of the oceans were different. It was a completely unfamiliar Earth.
Helpless, Roy could only sniff and find the bookstore owner hiding in a cabinet.
The bookstore owner was a fat white man. Fortunately, his pot-bellied body could fit into the narrow cabinet. When Roy tore the door off and grabbed him, this guy saw Roy’s appearance and peed his pants in fear.
Roy frowned and brought him to the map. “Answer my question, and I won’t kill you! Where is the most powerful country in the world? Show me!”
Upon hearing this, the owner quickly pointed at the map. “Here, it’s here! The strongest country is Mers!”
“Then, where am I now?
The owner identified it on the map and moved his finger a short distance. “Here!”
Roy was immediately depressed. He realized that he was actually in Mers!
The purpose of the demon army’s war this time was not only to defeat the angels but also to destroy the humans of this world. In other words, the strongest countries would definitely be the strategic targets because they represented the most flouris.h.i.+ng human culture and strength and had ma.s.sive populations.
The angels and demons had just descended and caught the humans off guard. Although humans looked weak in front of angels and demons, it would not take long for them to find a way to fight back, especially in such a modern civilized society, where they definitely had a large number of technological weapons.
Similarly, the stronger the resistance of humans, the more demon troops they would attract, and the more demons, the more angels. Once both sides gathered, this place would become the main battlefield.
Roy felt that if he were War, one of the Four Hors.e.m.e.n of the Apocalypse, he would definitely choose to descend on this main battlefield…
Now that Roy was in this country, when War descended, the chances of him encountering War were very high.
He had to find a way to avoid him and go to a neighboring country. Roy threw the fat bookstore owner aside and looked at the map while thinking about which direction to go.
If the plot after War descended was the same as in Roy’s memory, then it would not take long for the Charred Council to take away his power. Then he would be killed by a demon lord and return to the s.p.a.ce where the Charred Council was. Because the seven seals were not completely destroyed, the arrival of War was against the rules. He was summoned back to receive punishment, and it would be a hundred years later when he came to this world again.
Therefore, as long as he avoided War’s arrival at the beginning, Roy did not need to worry about encountering this Horseman of the Apocalypse for a hundred years.
Of course, avoiding the main battlefield was not only to prevent encountering War, but he also had the thought of avoiding the demon and angel big shots. Roy’s main task was to take advantage of the destruction of humankind to harvest a large number of souls. If he were to wander around on the main battlefield, not only would he need to compete with other demons for souls, but he might also encounter the big shots and attract attention. At that time, he would probably not be able to play happily. After making his decision, Roy chose to go east because after crossing about two thousand kilometers, he would reach a coastal country, where his frost power would be able to play its role well. As soon as he walked out of the bookstore, golden lightning flew at Roy. Roy flashed, and the golden lightning entered the bookstore. With an explosion, the store was immediately destroyed. Roy turned around and found the fat owner he had thrown away earlier buried under the collapsed rubble, revealing only his burnt body.
Roy shook his head slightly. He flapped his wings, dashed forward, and slammed his shoulder against the angel soldier who attacked him. He flew up with him and smashed him against a wall on the opposite side.
With a loud bang, the impact of their collision caused a huge pit in the thick wall. But before the rubble could fall, Roy’s frost power exploded, and solid black ice spread from his shoulder to freeze the angel soldier onto the wall.
After sealing the enemy, Roy flapped his wings and flew away. He had no time to deal with these angels for now.
Roy quickly flew east and encountered many demons and angels along the way. The demons ignored Roy, but a few angels would rush to attack Roy from time to time. If there were only a few enemies, Roy would kill them, but if there were too many, Roy would use Flash and break out of the encirclement.
After flying for about half an hour, Roy suddenly felt something and looked up at the sky.
In the sky behind him, a meteor that appeared brighter and larger, with billowing smoke, was crossing the sky and falling to the ground.
Incoming! It must be War!
Roy rejoiced that he had moved quick enough. In fact, he had already expected that War would descend after sensing the destruction of the seven seals. The same had been true for the demons, so it was foreseeable that it would not take too long for War to descend. If he had not made a prompt decision to leave immediately just now…
Roy kept watching War’s meteorite fall. Unlike the scene in the game, War created astounding momentum when he fell. The moment the meteorite hit the ground, a powerful light erupted! Even from hundreds of kilometers away, Roy could see the energy contained in the light, feeling as though he was seeing a nuclear explosion in a movie.
A few seconds later, a strong vibration came, and the ground beneath Roy began to shake violently.
In the sky, Roy stared at the area where War descended with his mouth agape. He knew that the area must have been destroyed.
War, who had just descended, was indeed quite terrifying. At this time, he should be at his peak, having power comparable to that of a demon king. The demons and angels still in that area were probably going to be very unlucky…
He turned around and continued flying forward. Although he knew that War would not be around for very long, Roy’s original plan did not change.
However, shortly after he started flying again, a black light suddenly flashed in front of him!
Roy slammed the breaks in midair to avoid the ray of light, but then he realized that the ray of light was not aimed at him but merely to stop him from moving forward.
In the air, a voice suddenly came. “Demon! Where do you want to go? The battlefield is behind you!”
Roy raised his head, and his pupils contracted when he saw a lithe and elegant figure slowly begin to descend.
This figure had the appearance of a female angel. But what surprised Roy was that not only was she not dressed like the enemy angels, but even her angel wings were black!
A fallen angel?!
Roy was slightly stunned. He remembered that when the demon army was a.s.sembling at the Abyss Outpost, he did see a few fallen angels in the formation of the high-rank demons from a distance. But he was too far away to see them clearly at the time.
And now, one unexpectedly appeared in front of him…
