Chapter 338 Seraphim
Holy light was a very active, high-level, high-quality energy. Normally, when holy light energy was released to launch long-range attacks, the form it manifested as was an explosive blast!
Although the ranks of the two thousand angels were different, and the amount of energy they released was different, the explosion caused by the energy of the same nature was incomparably terrifying. The moment the holy light hit Roy’s position, it was like several nuclear bombs exploding at the same time.
With a deafening bang, intense light radiation instantly illuminated the sky. The violent blast wave formed a ring-shaped ripple that spread out, resulting in a powerful negative pressure vacuum of at least millions of tons.
Even Roy did not dare to receive such a terrifying joint attack, so he immediately transformed into lightning and teleported away.
The strong explosions and light radiation also obstructed the angels’ vision, giving Roy a chance to counterattack. In the form of lightning, he moved past several angels in merely one second. Frostmourne’s sword light pa.s.sed through their bodies, causing a series of golden blood to spurt out.
Their attack did not work. On the contrary, Demon Osiris wounded many of their compatriots one after another. Enraged, the angels quickly responded. Hundreds of two-winged angels joined forces to release an enormous golden physical barrier that trapped Roy, wanting to restrict his high-speed movements in the barrier.
Roy quickly moved around this golden barrier and found that there were no weak spots at all. When he slashed, only sparks came out.
Seeing Roy futilely das.h.i.+ng back and forth in the barrier, the angels were delighted. Under the joint command of the four-winged angels, the two-winged angels who released the barrier carefully controlled their magic power output, making the enormous barrier shrink bit by bit.
Once they succeeded, they would enclose Roy in a small s.p.a.ce, completely sealing him… Noticing the intentions of the angels, Roy rejoiced inwardly. So many angels were truly troublesome. Fortunately, he had been prepared beforehand, or else he would have been in a bind. A dim light appeared on Red Dragon Emperor’s Gauntlet on his left arm. Roy activated the strength boost. In an instant, countless veins bulged on his arm under the vambrace. The dramatic increase in strength caused his muscles to swell violently, and his body expanded slightly. Then he raised his left arm, clenched his claw into a fist, and punched the golden barrier of light in front of him!
Thump! A loud sound reverberated, and the barrier of light trembled violently. The two-winged angels maintaining the barrier felt a strong shock from their magic power, almost breaking their magic power output.
This feeling was extremely uncomfortable and caused their minds to fall into a daze. Fortunately, they woke up in time and quickly maintained their magic power output.
After seeing that his doubled strength could not break the barrier, Roy waited for a few seconds, and the dim light flashed on his vambrace again. The second boost activated!
After this increase, Roy’s strength became four times his original. Compared to before, his body swelled at a visible rate. Anyone could tell how well-developed his muscles had become, and even the Cold Winter Armor could not hide them.
Roy raised his left fist, took a deep breath, and punched again!
Boom! An even louder sound came. After the punch landed, the angels maintaining the barrier spat out a mouthful of golden blood!
The destructive power of Roy’s punch was too terrifying. When this destructive power was fed back onto the barrier, it immediately transmitted to all the angels, knocking them back and jolting them into vomiting blood.
“Not… Not good!” A four-winged angel immediately stretched out his hand and output magic power into the barrier. The other angels nearby quickly made the same action and output magic power into the barrier to maintain and strengthen it. However, before they could maintain the shaky barrier, Roy’s third punch had already landed!
Eight times the strength!
Roy’s original strength was around 1,700. Now that it increased eight times, his strength was almost 15,000. When he punched out, his destructive power was even more terrifying than the explosion of a cruise missile. Moreover, this power was almost concentrated on one point, so the destructiveness was even more terrifying!
Before the angels who just joined in could output much magic power, the terrifying power transmitted by the barrier jolted their magic power. They could not even maintain their flying as they fell straight down from the sky. The golden barrier completely collapsed under Roy’s punch. With a bang, all the magic power condensed by the angels turned into golden light particles and disintegrated in the air. After breaking the barrier, Roy ignored the angels that fell, spread his wings, and rushed into the crowd of angels.
This time, he used the Dark Cold magic power. Although his magic power output was slightly unsmooth under the suppression of the omnipresent holy light, intense low temperature spread out and still formed an extremely low-temperature frost domain nearly a hundred meters around him. When the angels saw Roy rus.h.i.+ng over and wanted to fight back, due to the low temperature, their movements were slower, and they reacted half a beat slow.
Brandis.h.i.+ng Frostmourne, Roy quickly shuttled among the angels. Every time he swung his sword, he either cut off the enemy’s wings or cut through the opponent’s waist. Frostmourne exuded the thick auras of death and cold as it harvested the lives of every angel he slashed. Even angels who luckily avoided getting cut at their vital points would be corroded by the formidable curses of Frostmourne and instantly lose their combat strength and fall from the sky.
Wherever Roy rushed, angels collapsed like dumplings. Some unlucky ones even fell through the Gate of Heaven that he opened and entered the main s.p.a.ce of the Ashan world. And waiting for them here were the tens of thousands of demons waiting for the ritual to end. They would happily pick up any Roy leaked… Perhaps these angels that fell through would only end up without a corpse.
Even on the main battlefield of Heaven, there were numerous two-winged angels, but they could not form any effective resistance against Roy. When facing these two-winged angels, he simply mowed them down and carried out a ma.s.sacre. Only the four-winged angels could join forces to stop him. But Roy knew that these angels working together posed a threat to him, so he was unwilling to fight them for the time being. Seeing them rus.h.i.+ng over, he immediately avoided them and continued to charge into the crowd of two-winged angels to kill.
These angels could not keep up with Roy’s speed at all. They could only lag a few steps behind him and eat his dust. Hearing the screams of the two-winged angels, and watching the two-winged angels spilling blood into the sky one after another, the four-winged angels’ eyes turned red with anger.
They knew very well that even if they could stop and kill Demon Osiris here, Heaven would suffer heavy losses because of this battle, and it would be a long time for new angels to be born…
“His Excellency Claudio and the others… are they not here yet?” a four-winged angel asked anxiously.
He had rushed forward with his sword and wanted to stop Roy just now, but after Roy grabbed his longsword, he kicked his abdomen and sent him flying nearly a kilometer away. The immense force made him feel as though his abdomen had been about to be kicked through. Such a ma.s.sive difference in strength made him realize that without the help of high-level angels, they could not cause effective damage to Demon Osiris.
“His Excellency Claudio has arrived. Hang in there!” another four-winged angel replied.
Roy could naturally hear such loud voices. His heart stirred. He knew that the ones the four-winged angels pinning their high hopes on were definitely first-order seraphim, but he did not know how many there were.
To be on the safe side, Roy started to attack the four-winged angels while killing the two-winged angels. There were about a hundred of these four-winged angels. If he left them alone, they might cause Roy a lot of trouble when the seraphim appeared, so he had to reduce their numbers.
SH
With a flash, Roy appeared behind a four-winged angel. Frostmourne pierced through the angel’s chest from the back, and then he punched with his left hand, directly smas.h.i.+ng the angel’s head. He pulled out his sword and flew toward another nearby four-winged angel. The four-winged angel hurriedly defended, but just as he blocked Roy’s sword, the enormous force on the sword directly cut through his angelic sword. After breaking through the four-winged angel’s defense, Frostmourne’s remaining momentum was inexhaustible as it directly chopped the angel’s shoulder and split him in half!
“Die, demon!” Another four-winged angel nearby swung his sword at Roy with red eyes, and a golden sword beam flew over.
Holy Light Slas.h.!.+
However, an ice wall appeared out of thin air in front of Roy. The Holy Light Slash and the ice wall perished together. As the ice fragments fell, Roy stretched out his hand and pointed, and a black bolt of lightning shot out from his fingertip!
Finger of Death! Sizzle. The lightning struck the four-winged angel who attacked him. Under the high voltage of more than a hundred million volts, the four-winged angel immediately turned into a pile of humanoid charcoal, and his soul was directly annihilated the moment the lightning hit him.
Roy’s Dark Lightning could cause tremendous damage to souls. In game terms, the attack methods of Dark Lightning were true damage…
It had only been around six minutes since the angels rushed over to kill Roy, but hundreds of golden angel souls were floating in the sky. Roy did not have the time to collect these souls, but the sight was indeed spectacular.
Just as Roy attacked and killed the four-winged angels one after another, four golden streams of light suddenly flew from the distant horizon!
The four golden streams of light moved extremely quickly. In the blink of an eye, they crossed several dozen kilometers and arrived on the battlefield.
The moment the four streams of light stopped, they turned into four angels. These four angels were wearing clothes completely different from the other angels. Gorgeous and spotlessly white gold-inlaid streamers drifted slowly around them, and three huge pairs of angel wings stretched out behind them, as though they could cover the sky.
Seraphim! Finally came!
Not only did Roy see them, but the other angels also saw them. They immediately cried out in joy, “Your Excellency Claudio! Your Excellency Orfina! Your Excellency Cecily! Your Excellency Ista!” These four seraphim were not wearing hoods and did not hide their faces, so Roy could see them clearly. The four seraphim had the appearances of two men and two women. Two male angels were blonde, and two female angels had black hair. All of them had beautiful and extraordinary appearances without exception.
However, when they saw the flying b.l.o.o.d.y feathers and golden souls on the battlefield, the expressions of the four seraphim sank. They stared intently at Roy, as though they could not wait to tear him apart.
The two male seraphim drew their angelic swords burning with golden holy flames and rushed at Roy without a word. The two female seraphim put their palms together and floated on the spot while chanting softly.
Clang! Clang! Clang! The sound of metal colliding like a storm rang out. Roy used Frostmourne to block dozens of attacks from the two male seraphim. During this time, the two female seraphim completed their chanting.
A golden angel halo appeared above their heads, and in the next moment, powerful golden holy light engulfed the entire sky. “Return! Warriors of Heaven!!”
After being illuminated by the holy light, all the golden souls floating on the battlefield gradually began to reform the bodies of the dead angels!
After the reformation finished, all the angels whose souls still existed after their deaths actually revived!
This was not an attack but the Resurrection spell! It was the Ma.s.s Resurrection spell…
Seeing this scene, Roy had a headache. He almost forgot that the magic that angels were most proud of was Resurrection. With power at the seraph level, it was simply too easy to resurrect hundreds of souls at once. In other words, Roy’s previous attacks were completely in vain, and he still needed to kill those angels he killed earlier again…
This was the most troublesome part when dealing with angels.
It seems like I have to use that move…
