Chapter 391 - Fighting Demons Alone, Falling Into The Abyss
Vincent, who was about to head down the abyss, could not help but stop when he saw Andre"s demonized form. He decided to watch the intense battle.
Andre"s current appearance and voice had undergone an earth-shattering change. No one could treat him as an elf because he had completely transformed into a demon.
Myron, who had the upper hand, could not help but be on guard when he saw Andre successfully activating his demonized form. He did not dare to go forward.
As someone who had been defeated by Andre 20 years ago, Myron would never underestimate Andre under any circ.u.mstances, especially when he had an even more terrifying demonized form. Myron felt endless danger in his heart!
Andre strode in front of Myron and asked provocatively, "What? Are you afraid? Weren"t you very arrogant just now?"
Myron stepped back and said, "Don"t a.s.sume that you can defeat me just because you have entered the demonized form. I"m not afraid of you!"
Andre could not help but sneer, "Do you know why I didn"t enter my demonized form just now? That"s because I"m one of the twelve apostles of Devil King Gajero. I received the highest level gift from G.o.d Gajero. Once my demonized form is activated, I will never be able to return to the appearance of a Dark Elf again. Instead, I will completely evolve into a n.o.ble demon!"
Myron could not help but widen his eyes and muttered, "What did you say? You have completely turned into a demon? That is impossible, that is absolutely impossible!"
A proud expression slowly appeared on Andre"s face as he said, "Why is it impossible? All these years, do you know how many resources I have collected for the Demon Race? No, actually, it is more accurate for me to ask, do you know how many resources I"ve collected from Elf World for my own race? I"m not afraid to tell you that the resources in my hands are enough to open up a small world in the Black Hole world! This is the contribution I"ve made to the Demon Race. It"s enough for me to qualify as a demon!"
Myron narrowed his eyes and looked at Andre silently. He was extremely shocked. He became the City Lord of Devil Flame city 20 years ago. He must have done many things to collect resources for the Demon Race.
If Myron was in his shoes, he would only dare to provide some common resources from the Elf World to the Demon Race. Even if the Demon Race wanted the Origin Divine Earth, Myron would only play along and pretend to look for it. He would not actually give the most important resources that the elves relied on to the demons.
Andre was way crazier and more ruthless. Not only was he willing to become the eagle and dog of the demons, but he also sacrificed the treasures of the entire Elf Race in exchange for a chance to become a demon.
Myron sneered, "Andre! You are more ruthless than I thought. I am already ruthless enough, but I have never thought of abandoning the elf bloodline in me. Yet, you have completely abandoned your birth. I can feel the inferiority complex in your bones!"
Andre had already exposed his true thoughts, so he no longer hid them. He nodded and said proudly, "That"s right, I have an inferiority complex! I have always wondered why I am an elf, a race that was born to be slaves! With my talent and ability, I should have become a more n.o.ble demon and enslave all you low-level creatures! Therefore, I used 20 years to acc.u.mulate countless contributions in exchange for the opportunity to become a demon. Unfortunately, my final task has not yet been completed. Becoming a demon ahead of time would easily arouse fear in others, and this all happened because of your appearance today. You have disrupted my plan, so you must pay the price for this!"
Myron could not help but frown and ask, "A task that has not been completed? Don"t tell me you want to drain all the Origin Divine Earth and destroy this world?"
"Hahaha!"
Andre raised his head and laughed hysterically, revealing a neurotic sickness. With a crazed face, he said, "That"s right! Only by destroying the entire world can I complete the last mission that the Great G.o.d Gajero has arranged for me. At that time, I can officially become a demon and head to the n.o.bler Demon World! There is also denser psionic power and more advanced materials there. There is also the infinite possibility of increasing one"s strength. Even the air there is fragrant and sweet. Everyone who stands in my way must die, including you and that d.a.m.ned Fire Elf!"
Myron asked with a blank expression, "What Fire Elf?"
However, at that moment, Andre no longer bothered to answer any of Myron"s questions. He raised his demonized arm and shouted at Myron in a deep voice, "Belief shackles!"
The sound of chains dragging could be heard. A large number of chains formed by the aura of the Demon World suddenly surged out of Myron"s body and bounded all his major joints.
Myron suddenly realized that he had lost the ability to move and could not help but ask in surprise, "What is this?"
Andre said in a deep voice, "All the Dark Elves are able to advance their cultivation to level 40 and above because they have received the favor of the Great G.o.d Gajero. Even your demonized form is a gift from the Demon Race! Do you think that these powers can be used to deal with the Demon Race itself? You"re too naive!"
Andre continued, "To tell you the truth, only the Dark Elves who are above level 40 can pray to G.o.d Gajero for the demonized form. It seems like a method to increase their strength but in actual fact, it is a trap designed by the Demon Race to control the elites among the Dark Elves! When you enter the demonized form, you will become a subspecies of the Demon Race. At this time, any demon can control your actions at will. This is the suppression between the high-level races and the low-level races!"
Myron was trembling all over at this time. He gritted his teeth and sighed, "So all of this is a trap! Gajero did not forgive me but instead gave me a set of shackles to make me a slave! B*stard, we have not reconciled!"
"Then come back for revenge in your next life!" shouted Andre in a low voice.
He then clenched his five fingers and said in a deep voice, "Kill!"
As Andre"s voice fell, the chains on Myron"s body began to tighten. At the same time, the demonic aura began to devour his body. It was corroding his originally strong body until only skin and bones were left behind. The demonic aura that filled his entire body soon left his body and flowed into Andre instead.
Vincent, who was in the s.p.a.ce tunnel, was shocked when he saw Myron transform from a pitch-black muscular man to a dying old elf in an instant.
This was because he had just found out that the demonized form possessed by the Dark Elves above level 40 was actually a shackle that made them slaves. In other words, the demons guarding the Imperial City could kill any Dark Elf above level 40 at will!
This meant that those who were controlling the powerful Dark Elves were actually controlling the entire Elf Race in secret.
A single thought from Gajero was also enough to exterminate the entire Elf Race!
However, at that moment, Gajero was still greedy for the remaining Origin Divine Earth in the Elf Race. Once the world could no longer squeeze out any resources, it would usher in the doomsday that Gajero had long planned for them!
At that moment, Vincent knew that regardless of whether he acted or not, Myron would definitely die at the hands of Andre that day. This was because after Myron entered the demonized state, there was a suppression of life levels between him and Andre. It was impossible to remove this suppression by external forces alone.
Moreover, Andre was abnormally terrifying. If Vincent acted rashly, he would probably not be a match for him.
However, Vincent had just heard Andre mention the Fire Elf. This meant that he had not forgotten about the culprit who had just destroyed his formation. After Andre dealt with Myron, he would definitely continue to look for the Fire Elf. At this time, Devil Flame City may go into lockdown and be under extremely strict control, which would be very disadvantageous to Vincent and Dave"s future plans!
Therefore, Vincent could only use this opportunity to dispel the doubts in Andre"s heart!
Vincent held the s.p.a.ce token in front of him and drew a line. The invisible door instantly opened, and in a flash, he rushed into the pa.s.sageway on the ninth floor. Vincent had completely transformed into the appearance of a Fire Elf the moment he exited the door!
"The Descent of the Fire G.o.d!" shouted Vincent.
His Flaming Sun Divine Body and flame authority were activated at the same time. A giant towering fire rose from his body. Vincent waved his huge fist and smashed it behind Andre.
Andre, who suddenly heard the sound behind him, quickly turned his head and immediately saw Vincent under the fire giant. He recognized him as the Fire Elf that he had saw in the tunnel earlier. It was the same Fire Elf who had destroyed his formation. He had specially created the formation for the purposes of collecting the Origin Divine Earth. The Fire Elf was currently taking the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on him!
"Just in time. I"ll kill you today!"
Andre let out a cold snort and immediately released Myron. He turned around and opened his arms, welcoming the fire fist that was flying toward him from the sky.
A large amount of demonic aura surged out from Andre"s body and into his hands. The aura made his hands incomparably huge. He then grabbed the fire giant"s fist. Countless black tentacles that looked like loaches grew out from his black palms. They started to burrow into the fire giant"s arms like parasites. They then continued to burrow into the fire-like Vincent.
At this moment, Vincent realized that his control over the Fire G.o.d"s avatar had become much slower. At the same time, his fire fist that had been invaded by the demonic aura was no longer under his control. He immediately felt like he was in danger and quickly retreated.
"Fire tornado!" shouted Vincent as he pointed at Andre.
The Fire G.o.d"s avatar instantly turned into a surging tornado. It brought along the demonic aura that had mixed into it and swept toward Andre.
Andre strode into the fire tornado without any fear. No matter how the flames around him surged into the sky, his body was still safe and sound under the protection of the demonic aura. He was still able to continue walking toward Vincent.
At this time, Myron, who had become extremely old and weak, suddenly burst out with his last bit of strength and took the opportunity to escape. He raised his hand and pressed it on a wall behind him. In an instant, he opened the secret door and hid inside. Following that, the entire ninth floor began to shake violently, the sounds of countless mechanisms rotating could be heard from the surrounding walls. At the same time, Myron"s erratic voice could be heard.
"Andre, today I want you to die with me, along with the entire h.e.l.l"s Rose!"
Vincent and Andre, who were in a confrontation, heard Myron"s voice at the same time. They also realized that Myron must have activated the self-destruct mechanism on the ninth floor. The entire ninth floor was about to collapse. If they did not leave at that moment, they would only be buried hundreds of meters underground!
Even though Andre had successfully evolved into a demon, he did not dare to ignore such a threat. He could only speed up to finish off the Fire Elf before thinking of a way to leave the ninth floor.
Andre roared loudly, "Monstrous Demonic Flames!"
The vast amount of demonic aura around him instantly condensed into a black giant. It was almost identical to Vincent"s fire G.o.d spell. Under the control of Andre, the black giant that was created using demonic aura raised its huge foot and stomped heavily toward Vincent.
Vincent naturally did not dare to be careless. He quickly raised his palm that carried the Demon King"s Groan and said softly, "Devil World Heavenly Punishment!"
A dark cloud surged out from the Devil King"s Groan and instantly gathered at the top of the ninth floor. Countless black tentacles hung down and coiled tightly around the black giant"s foot.
"Are you Jacob?"
Andre looked at Vincent in surprise at first, but then he sneered and said, "No, you have already killed Jacob!"
Andre had once fought with the mysterious Jacob in the sky above the alley, so he naturally had a deep impression of the Demon King"s Groan. Later, he even guessed the ident.i.ty of the mysterious Dark Elf from Miller"s description. It was Jacob, a Dark Elf that he had hired 20 years ago!
After seeing the familiar magic spell again, Andre could not help but suspect that the Fire Elf in front of him was Jacob. However, Andre immediately dismissed the idea, because he knew that Jacob, who pursued power, would never change his beliefs!
Therefore, there was only one possibility left, and that was that the Fire Elf in front of him had killed Jacob and stole Jacob"s special equipment!
Vincent did not reply because he was trying his best to control the tentacles that were hanging down from the dark cloud. He wanted to restrain the black giant"s huge foot.
Although the corridor on the ninth floor had widened a little due to the great battle earlier, it still maintained its shape as a narrow and long pa.s.sage. If the black giant"s huge foot landed on Vincent, he would be crushed to death. He had two choices at that moment. He could either choose to be trampled to death on the spot or jump into the bottomless abyss behind him.
Vincent"s real goal at the moment was to investigate the bottom of the abyss. He thought of acting as if he was forced to turn around and jump into the abyss. After all, he was used to putting on a full-on act. However, he had to make things look more realistic. Therefore, he had to do his best to deal with Andre. Only then could the subsequent acts look more realistic.
After feeling Vincent"s resistance, Andre, who was anxious to escape, pointed at the dark clouds in the sky and softly said, "Reverse!"
Suddenly, the sound of rolling thunder came from the dark clouds above the tunnel. The tentacles suddenly stopped moving. The tentacles that were tied to the feet of the black giant also loosened one by one. They then turned around and wrapped around Vincent instead.
Vincent was greatly shocked after seeing this. He quickly retreated and dodged the attacks of the tentacles. He did not expect that this special equipment that could use magic spells from the magic world would be controlled by Andre in the end!
"Idiot, what an idiot! Even Myron who was in his demonized form is under my control. How can a mere magic equipment like yours do anything to a real demon like me? Go to h.e.l.l!"
Andre laughed as he rushed forward. At the same time, he controlled the black giant to kick forward instead of stomping downward.
Vincent, who was dodging backwards rapidly, soon arrived at the platform on the ninth floor. He looked at the black foot flying toward him. He had no choice but to control the flames to form a wall of fire in front of him.
Behind the wall of fire, Vincent activated his Hand of G.o.d and transformed it into a hemispherical s.h.i.+eld in order to protect his entire body.
"Dong!"
The black foot instantly pa.s.sed through the wall of fire and kicked the Hand of G.o.d in an extremely hard manner.
Following the sound of metal colliding, Vincent was instantly sent flying backward and fell directly into the abyss. Following that, a huge suction force from the bottomless abyss began to pull Vincent down violently, causing him to fall downward. He was completely out of control.
The aftermath of the violent collision directly shattered the elevator platform that had stopped on the ninth floor. It shattered it into countless pieces and fell to the bottom of the abyss.
At the same time, Andre had also rushed to the platform on the ninth floor. When he saw Vincent struggling and falling into the darkness at the bottom of the abyss, he heaved a sigh of relief.
He was still very familiar with the abyss. Other than the path that was made out of weapons that allowed for one to travel 300 meters below, any living creature that directly fell into the abyss would have absolutely no chance of survival. Therefore, he did not need to worry about the fate of the Fire Elf anymore!
Finally, Andre turned his head to look at the half-collapsed ninth floor behind him. His eyes were filled with hatred.
"Myron! Don"t even think about leaving alive today. I won"t let you off so easily!"
After letting out an angry roar, Andre suddenly jumped toward the stone wall above the ninth floor. He extended his sharp black claws, and his five fingernails instantly pierced into the wall. He was soon hanging on the stone walls.
He then used both his hands and feet to start smas.h.i.+ng a pa.s.sageway above the stone wall.
At this time, the lift platform to leave the ninth floor had already been destroyed. Andre did not know about the traps that Myron had left there. If he wanted to escape, he could only use this clumsy method to dig through the underground rock layer all the way to the eighth floor that had yet to collapse!
Unfortunately, Andre did not know that there was still an internal elevator in h.e.l.l"s Rose. At this time, Myron, who was seriously injured and on the verge of death, was using the internal elevator to rush to the eighth floor.
As the oil lamp was about to run out, Myron knew that there was no hope for survival. There was only one last thought in his heart, and that was to die together with Andre. No matter what method he used, he would not hesitate to destroy h.e.l.l"s Rose or Devil Flame City!
After arriving on the eighth floor, Myron stumbled into the supervisor"s office. He pressed the self-destruct b.u.t.ton on the eighth floor with ease. He then turned around and walked to the lift. He was preparing to continue to the seventh floor.
However, at that moment, the ground in front of Myron suddenly cracked. Immediately after that, a black shadow with a cold smile flashed out from the ground and blocked Myron.
Myron shouted with a helpless face, "Andre, you caught up so quickly!"
Andre shouted crazily, "Go to h.e.l.l!"
