Seeing the ruins of the High Heavens, Gabriel finally knew why there had been no response when he called the outpost of this world. This Heaven had been destroyed.
Did Demon King Osiris do it? Gabriel walked among the ruins while thinking.
This demon kings ability is very strange. It’s very likely that he can destroy a high-level Heaven, but he might have other helpers. He shouldn’t be the only demon king in this world… The Red Sea Egg! Another demon king is in the Red Sea Egg! Yes, the military forces of this Heaven were very strong. Perhaps during the attack on it, another demon king was heavily injured, so hes using the Red Sea Egg to recover…
There was no one in the empty ruins of the High Heavens, so naturally, no one could tell Gabriel the truth about the war. Everything was based on his own imagination, but his imagination… seemed to have gone astray!
The war between the High Heavens, the Burning h.e.l.ls, and Sanctuary was extremely complicated. It was impossible for those who had not experienced it personally to understand what had happened during this period. Gabriel’s body had always been in Eden, the Supreme Heaven, so how could he know the situation here in the High Heavens? Therefore, he could only rely on his past experience and intuition to make connections. It seemed normal for his thoughts to go astray…
Demon King Osiris wanted to trap me in the Void, but he definitely never expected that I could return with the help of the Book of Truth! Gabriel thought. So this time, I can take advantage of this to surprise attack him and kill him as soon as possible. Then I can think ofa way to cut off the energy supply of the Red Sea Egg, stop the other demon king in the Red Sea Egg from healing, and dig him out of the egg. Afterward, I can kill all the demons and take away this Legacy of the Creator and the half-body angel on Osiris’s shoulder. I can bring her back to Eden, and maybe there’s still hope… This is my next mission!
After sorting his thoughts out, Gabriel no longer hesitated and quickly flew away from the s.p.a.ce where the High Heavens was.
Although Gabriel felt that it was a pity that a high-level military outpost had been destroyed, he had seen too many similar things in the hundreds of millions of years that the Eternal War had lasted, so he didn’t feel too sad.
After leaving the High Heavens, Gabriel immediately sensed Roy’s aura on the moon, so he first restrained his angelic aura to prevent Roy from noticing. At the same time, he turned into light and flew to the moon at extreme speed.
Gabriel’s surprise attack had the desired effect. Roy only discovered him when he was close to the moon, but with the speed of light, this distance was very close.
Although Roy had been prepared for Gabriel to escape from the beginning, more than ten hours of waiting had still made his attention wander. When he first discovered Gabriel attacking, Gabriel’s sword was already stabbing at his heart.
Fortunately, Roy had set a pa.s.sive effect definition for the A.T. Field. Although he couldn’t react in time, it was absolutely impossible for a sneak attack to hit him. The moment the tip of Gabriel’s sword touched Roy’s skin, the A.T. Field immediately spread out and firmly blocked Gabriel’s killing move outside Roy’s body.
Ripples erupted from the golden force field. Roy looked at Gabriel, who was full of killing intent, and felt a lingering fear. This guy really ran out of the Void!
Sizzle. With his body as the center, Roy erupted with powerful black lightning.
These lightning bolts intertwined into a giant lightning field and tried to trap Gabriel in it. But although the speed of the lightning was close to the speed of light, it couldn’t reach the true speed of light and was still a little lacking.
Gabriel’s figure kept flas.h.i.+ng in the lightning field, constantly moving between the gaps of the lightning. Every time he neared Roy, he would swing his sword and try to break Roy’s A.T. Field.
Under Archangel Gabriel’s constant attacks, the A.T. Field suffered tremendous pressure.
Although there was no unbreakable s.h.i.+eld in this world, it was still an ability formed by Roy’s largest expenditure of souls, so it still played its due role. In just five to six seconds, it blocked hundreds of thousands of Gabriel’s slashes for Roy!
These few seconds gave Roy sufficient time to prepare mentally…
Just as Gabriel swung his sword at Roy again, he found that the strange s.h.i.+eld that had been blocking his attacks suddenly disappeared! The sword in his hand finally felt like it was stabbing into flesh and blood!
Roy took the initiative to remove the protection of the A.T. Field. In fact, under Gabriel’s rapid attacks, the A.T. Field was on the verge of breaking. But after removing the force field, Roy didn’t transform into his Chaos body to block Gabriel’s attack. Instead, he received Gabriel’s sword in his normal flesh body state.
Gabriel’s sword pierced through Roy’s chest and emerged from the gap between the roots of his wings. The moment he stabbed, a strong golden flash erupted from Roy’s back, forming a giant pillar of light that illuminated the dark s.p.a.ce.
This pillar of light spread far into s.p.a.ce before slowly dissipating…
Although he had successfully stabbed Roy, Gabriel was still a little surprised. This strike was not within his expectations, causing the explosive holy light power contained in the attack to deviate. The holy light power that should have erupted in Roy’s body finally erupted behind him. It could be said to have been wasted.
But Gabriel was not too concerned. The angelic sword in his hand was a weapon formed from the purest holy light in all of Eden. No demon could withstand the might of this sword! In his opinion, the outcome of the stabbed Demon King Osiris was already destined.
After maintaining his attack posture for a moment, Gabriel looked at Demon King Osiris, who was motionless in front of him, and wanted to withdraw the sword in his hand.
However, just as he was about to exert his strength, a demon claw suddenly pinched his wrist holding the sword.
Gabriel was stunned. He looked up at Roy, only to find Roy looking at him with a sinister smirk, looking as though nothing was wrong. Gabriel looked down and noticed that Roy’s stabbed chest had turned into gray mist at some point, and no demon blood was flowing out at all.
“Caught you, Gabriel!” Roy grinned sinisterly at Gabriel, who was close at hand, and grabbed Gabriel’s wrist tightly with his right claw. “Did you have a good time hitting me just now?”
However, Gabriel’s focus was not on his grabbed wrist. He looked at the gray mist gap on Roy’s chest in puzzlement. “What kind of demon are you? Why doesn’t holy light work on you?”
This was what puzzled Gabriel the most. During the two battles, he realized how troublesome Demon King Osiris was. But what was strange was that Eden had never heard of such a demon king before. The only record only mentioned a part of Roy’s true demon name, and Roy’s race and origin were completely unknown.
For such a powerful demon enemy to have grown up so silently, this was a dereliction of duty for all angels.
As for Roy grabbing his wrist, Gabriel didn’t care at all. No one could grab light.
“Guess?” Roy couldn’t possibly answer Gabriel’s question to him. “But I advise you not to ask first because next…”
Before Roy finished speaking, Gabriel’s expression suddenly changed (if he had a face), and his intuition suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis!
Gabriel instantly reacted. His wrist that Roy was grabbing suddenly turned into invisible light and easily escaped from Roy’s demon claw. But just as he was about to retreat, an intense cold aura erupted from Roy!
“Freeze in Time!!”
With Roy’s roar, with him as the center, the temperature within a radius of several kilometers plummeted like an avalanche and quickly reached a critical point.
When Gabriel realized that something was wrong, he wanted to escape. But even with his extreme speed of light, he couldn’t escape in a short time because the moment Roy’s frost power erupted to a critical point, the speed of light around him had slowed down!
For a moment, Gabriel even wondered if he had returned to the Void environment. The normal s.p.a.ce around him was like a powerful quagmire, firmly trapping him. His every move seemed to be hundreds of times slower. If there were bystanders at this moment. they would discover that the light
around Roy and Gabriel had first distorted greatly, and then this area completely fell into darkness.
Roy’s Absolute Zero Domain was his true trump card. This ability was the most suitable to deal with enemies with the speed of light like Gabriel. Under the ultra -low temperature of absolute zero, even s.p.a.ce would be frozen, let alone light.
However, because Roy couldn’t achieve this low temperature instantaneously, he had to sacrifice himself and let Gabriel stab him once in exchange for the chance when Gabriel got close. This way, when Roy erupted with extreme cold power, Gabriel wouldn’t be able to escape at the speed of light.
Moreover, they were above the moon, and the original environment already had a very low temperature, which invisibly accelerated Roy’s power.
When the motion of photons stopped, Gabriel’s entire body stopped moving. From moving slowly to finally stopping, this process was like a super slow-motion video, but in fact, this process was completed in less than 0.01 seconds. In this completely dark domain, no one could see this process.
Roy’s Absolute Zero Domain only lasted for two to three seconds. After he gradually withdrew his power, the pitch-black domain changed again, and the surrounding darkness disappeared. When the temperature returned to the condensate critical point, light appeared again in a distorted form. But the frozen s.p.a.ce had already collapsed, and a tremendous gravitational force was born. But this gravitational force didn’t last long before the collapsed s.p.a.ce was sucked into the Void and disappeared.
This was the first time Roy had used the Absolute Zero Domain to deal with any enemy in actual combat. This ultra-low temperature, which shouldn’t have appeared in the material world in theory, could appear briefly in the material world under the drive of Roy’s divine spark authority and cause immense damage.
A fracture appeared in the s.p.a.ce here and was replaced by a Void rift, and Void power overflowed violently. If Roy hadn’t dealt with it in time, an enormous Void leakage point would have formed here. At that time, the leaked Void power would corrode the entire moon and this universe.
After filling the Void rift, Roy had the time to look at Gabriel. At this moment, Gabriel’s body was floating in s.p.a.ce, and his body was grayish-white, looking like the only black and white photo in a world full of color. Moreover, his grayish body was disintegrating, and all the photons that formed his holy light body had completely lost all their energy and fell into dead silence. Without active photons, Gabriel’s body naturally began to disintegrate.
Naturally, the naked eye couldn’t see photons, so the disintegration of Gabriel’s body was very strange. All the parts of his body were quietly disappearing, and the scene of him turning into ashes didn’t happen as expected. He simply disappeared.
I actually killed Gabriel? Roy didn’t dare to believe it. Although he knew that the Absolute Zero Domain was terrifying, he still felt like he was dreaming when he saw the body of the famous Gabriel dissipating in front of him.
Am I that strong? Roy himself was a little unconfident…
He stared intently at Gabriel’s dissipating body and didn’t dare to relax.
Gabriel’s body was gone, but he couldn’t tell how his soul was. After all, Gabriel was one of the Genesis Angels, which meant that he was once at the Deadly Sin level. It was hard to say if his soul had any special characteristics.
Just as Roy was thinking this, Gabriel’s body had completely disappeared. And in Roy’s demon soul vision, he saw Gabriel’s exposed soul.
This soul was now grayish-white, meaning that Roy’s Absolute Zero Domain had also affected Gabriel’s soul.
But what was strange was that although the soul was frozen, it didn’t dissipate after being exposed.
Roy’s heart tightened. He remembered the scene when he seized Gabriel’s soul fragment in the Van Helsing world, so he quickly grabbed Gabriel’s gray soul. As expected, the next second, violent spatial fluctuations came, and then a new Gate of Heaven opened!
This Gate of Heaven was exactly the same as the Gate of Heaven when Gabriel descended. With the faint chants, endless golden radiance poured out from the Gate of Heaven. This holy light naturally came from Eden behind the gate and had a very strong holy attribute.
Just like before, this Gate of Heaven wanted to bring Gabriel’s soul back!
Whenever the body of a Genesis Angel like Gabriel was destroyed and his soul was exposed, he would be received by Eden. This was his privilege as a Genesis Angel. But just like how Roy had grabbed his soul fragment way back when, Gabriel’s soul was now in Roy’s hands. When the pillar of holy light that received his soul shone down, it couldn’t get Gabriel’s soul to fly back.
Now, this intense holy light could no longer burn Roy, so he grasped Gabriel’s soul tightly and didn’t let it fly away as he fought against the guiding pillar of light.
This was only Roy’s subconscious action. After all, he had defeated Gabriel’s body through careful planning, and he didn’t want Gabriel’s soul to return to Eden and resurrect again.
After a while, the gravity of the guiding beam of light suddenly weakened, seemingly having given up.
However, Roy was not happy, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat. Wait, the last time I grabbed Gabriel’s soul fragment like this, it seemed to attract one of Gabriel’s main bodies…
Roy raised his head and looked at the Gate of Heaven in s.p.a.ce. As expected, a new figure appeared from it!
It was a tall angel. Unlike Gabriel, who had worn an angelic robe and a hood, this new angel actually had a beautiful human face. His long fiery red hair was tied up on top of his head, and his ponytail was fluttering like flames. He was wearing a neat golden battle robe with several red gems inlaid in it, making him look like an incomparably heroic warrior.
And on the streamers and skirt of his battle robe, there were patterns embroidered with scales. In his hand was a red cross-shaped angelic sword, and a dazzling golden angel halo was s.h.i.+ning above his head.
However, this was not what surprised Roy the most. What surprised him the most was that this new Archangel had six pairs of angel wings behind him!
After recognizing the ident.i.ty of this Archangel, Roy gasped!
One who is like G.o.d, Michael!!!
Perhaps it was because Roy was holding Gabriel’s soul and refusing to let it go that he had attracted Michael. The moment Michael appeared from the Gate of Heaven, it was as though all the light in the world was focused on him.
It seems I went a little overboard… Roy’s mind buzzed when he saw the twelve wings stretched out behind Michael.
As the most dazzling and powerful combat force guarding Eden, the Supreme Heaven, Michael wouldn’t easily appear in the world. Just as Roy had seen through Uriel’s memories, Michael was probably the only Archangel who had never created a clone.
In other words, it was very likely that he still retained his original power!
Twelve wings, is this really the representation of the Genesis level, which is the Deadly Sin level?
Roy looked at the Red Sea Egg below bitterly. Lilith, you didn’t say that Michael would appear. I thought that Gabriel would be the worst… In this situation, can I really hold on?
After Michael appeared, this material world was affected by his ma.s.sive power and trembled violently again. If it was a world born naturally, Michael would have long suffered an immense repulsive effect. But the problem was that this was an artificial world, a s.p.a.ce created by a world-soul t.i.tan and combined into the universe like a puzzle. The repulsive effect of this material world was very weak. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for it to accommodate so many demon kings and Archangels. Thus, Michael’s appearance was not too affected.
After he appeared, he immediately saw Roy and Gabriel’s defeated soul in Roy’s hand.
Michael didn’t say anything. He just snorted coldly and raised his cross-shaped longsword.
A beam of dazzling light erupted from Michael’s sword tip and shot straight at Roy. Out of vigilance, Roy quickly let go of Gabriel’s soul and retreated out of the range of the beam.
But unexpectedly, Michael’s target was not him but Gabriel’s soul in his hand! When this beam of light shone on Gabriel’s soul, it seemed to infuse vitality into the gray soul again, and the gray soul regained its color!
Then under the continued illumination of the light beam, a new body of light appeared with Gabriel’s soul. Under a series of changes, this body changed to Gabriel’s appearance.
Michael’s power had resurrected Gabriel’s soul…
“Gabriel, what are you doing?” Michael asked after seeing Gabriel resurrect.
“Why did you fall into the hands of a demon king?”
“I…” Gabriel didn’t know what to say. In fact, when Roy’s Absolute Zero Domain erupted, he realized that he couldn’t escape. He never thought that Demon King Osiris would have the bloodline of a frost demon and had already used the ability of a frost demon to the limit. Under the extreme cold that could freeze s.p.a.ce and time, even light couldn’t escape.
Gabriel couldn’t explain it, so he just pointed at Roy and said to Michael, “He’s Demon King Osiris, a new demon king of the Abyss. He’s very powerful, and we have to eliminate him here. Otherwise, he will become a ma.s.sive danger to the angels!”
After hearing this, Michael didn’t say anything. He instantly arrived beside Gabriel and flew side by side with him. The two Archangels pointed the angelic swords in their hands at Roy.
This… Roy couldn’t help smiling bitterly. Do I really… have what it takes to make two Archangels attack together?
However, just as the battle was about to begin, the rhythmically beating Red Sea Egg on the surface of the moon below suddenly stopped its constant pulsations.
Roy’s eyes immediately lit up. Great. The time I fought for was not in vain. Lilith’s fusion ritual is finally complete!
Under Roy’s, Gabriel’s, and Michael’s gazes, the huge Red Sea Egg slowly opened.
Then a pair of wings so gigantic that it could almost cover the entire moon slowly stretched out from the Red Sea Egg as though it was rising from the horizon. Its colossal size was clearly visible even on Sanctuary.
However, this was not the end. Immediately after, another pair of equally ma.s.sive wings stretched out and rose. One pair after another, a total of six pairs of wings stretched out in s.p.a.ce.
Roy watched this scene in surprise.. Twelve wings! Lilith now has twelve wings! Lilith has returned to the Deadly Sin level!
