Chapter 815 The Demon God's Scheme (2)
“Phew…” Elena breathed a sigh of relief when Elysia’s team managed to get out of the collapsed realm safely.
She then refocused on her search for a hidden realm in a separate dimension. In this place, the third and fourth deities were hiding somewhere.
“Oh, you’ve come.” Xero raised his palm in greeting. He jumped down from the air duct and landed in front of Lifa.
“I found a sealed dimensional gate at the end of the corridor over there. I wanted to hit an entrance, but my power might crack that frail entrance.” Xero pointed in a direction. He wanted Lifa to do something for him.
“All right, I will make an entrance there.” Lifa nodded in understanding.
“Then, we must hurry. Tch, I hate this formation. My power is slowly being absorbed by this cursed trap formation. They will pay for all this lost energy of mine.” Xero clenched his fists. He felt highly annoyed that the power he had painstakingly recovered was wasted because of that formation.
Lifa then went to the end of the corridor with everyone. She just touched that sealed dimensional gate and did a bit of energy manipulation.
*Poof*
A dimensional gate gradually emerged, then slowly opened on Lifa’s gentle push.
“Hehe, they will pay for it!” Xero grinned evilly like a great villain about to commit a massacre.
*Swoosh*
Xero instantly shot into the Demonic Realm and caused destruction everywhere. His targets were the two deities, and he would defeat them as quickly as possible. Nothing could stop him.
“Oh my, he seems really annoyed. We need to help him then.” Lifa covered her mouth and invited Elena to enter that realm.
In a giant fortress in a valley near the red lake, a tremendous explosion had just occurred nearby. Hundreds of demons vanished in one fell swoop.
“My friend, we have been attacked. They can find our separated dimension easily.” The giant fiery demon pulled out his twin lava axes from his chest.
“Those two have also been eliminated in the game, huh… These executioners are moving really fast. If we can’t get the upper hand, we must stall for as long as possible. Our ultimate traps will defeat them in one go, no matter how much. they’re strong.” The skeleton armored knight with a thick aura of death stared calmly at the devastation approaching his fortress.
*Rumble!*
A violent earthquake shook the entire realm. It was like a land tsunami that destroyed everything in its path.
The vast and deep crater was created with a man in brown armor at its epicenter. Gio obliterated the demon hordes with one hit.
“Found you.” Xero raised his spear bomb and threw it at a specific spot within the fortress.
*Swoosh!*
The spear shot through the speed of sound like a missile, leaving several air ripples in its trajectory.
*Boom!*
A powerful explosion obliterated the great fortress. However, two entities shot out from within the explosion to strike back at Xero in the sky.
“Death!” The death knight drew his greatsword.
“Burn to ashes!” The fiery demon formed dual flame slashes with his twin axes.
“Perish! Judgment Slashes!” Xero summoned his divine-grade longsword and unleashed hundreds of slashes of darkness into the air. The separated dimension was even torn apart from the slashes.
He used his divine law and part of his full power in that attack because he didn’t want to linger in the fight.
Time was instantly ticking so slowly. The death knight and the fiery demon saw themselves slashed hundreds of times and received severe injuries in just that one strike.
At that moment, they finally realized the difference in their strength with the executioner was massive. It was like earth and heaven. However, they were God-level entities in this world. A high-ranking God also couldn’t defeat them that fast.
Or maybe, this executioner immediately released an ultimate attack in their first encounter?
The two deities vomited blood and groaned in pain as time passed back to normal. The executioner was merciful by not killing them, but he didn’t just let them go either.
“I told you, you will pay for it.” Xero gripped the heads of the two heavily injured deities. Blacklight shone on his hands. He began absorbing the two deities’ magic energy to recover his lost magic.
After that, he snatched their king pieces before landing on the ground.
“Look at the destruction you created. Apart from these two deities, you killed all the participants in the fortress.” Elena greeted Xero with a head chop.
“Ouch!” Xero held his head. He was still wearing his divine armor, but that simple head chop seemed to impact his spirit.
“Yeah, bad. You broke the rules in this operation.” Lifa folded her arms in dissatisfaction.
“Hmm, you’ve absorbed their magic power, huh… This way, they can’t recuperate or put up any resistance. Let’s give them a little help before imprisoning them.” Elena crouched down and healed the external wounds of the two deities with simple healing magic.
“What the catch? We must move quickly before our strength runs out. This trap formation disgusts me the more it absorbs our magic power continuously. We need to find the mastermind and deactivate it as soon as possible. I feel like they have a more complicated scheme than it seems. Maybe, they have already prepared an ultimate weapon somewhere.” Xero stated the reason reflexively.
“And that justifies your action to kill them all?” Elena stood back up.
“What’s wrong with you? You didn’t even bat an eye when the demons were annihilated. They are only insignificant humans who work for the demons. Nature spirits will give them the death penalty. Sooner or later, they will receive a much more heinous punishment in hell because of their mortal sin. Isn’t that the law in this world? Your precious disciple who said it, right?” Xero folded his arms. He didn’t feel guilty at all.
“Is that so?” Elena sighed and turned around. “Put them in your jail. We’re out of here.”
“…” Lifa just shrugged her shoulders. She invited Gio to leave that realm.
“???” Xero rubbed his head in confusion. He thought a heated argument would take place, but it didn’t. He was happy to involve Elysia in his explanation because it was effective.
He immediately imprisoned the two fainted deities and then left the separated dimension. That realm gradually collapsed.
“Sigh…” Elena heaved a subtle sigh as she gazed at the collapsed Demonic Realm.
It was like an apocalypse of the end. That realm crumbled into nothingness and disappeared into the void. The dimensional gate then gradually vanished.
Now, they just needed to find the last separated dimension, and they were done with this place.
Even though the four deities had been defeated, the trap formation was still there. Elysia’s team was currently tracking the last separated dimension.
“Are you all uncomfortable? You can feel a hidden catastrophe in the last separated dimension?” Lifa stroked the restless nature spirits hiding around her. They reported something to her, and it was about a bad omen.
“Then, we should catch up with Ely’s team.” Elena hurried off to return to Elysia. She was in a hurry and didn’t wait for Lifa.
“We’re going to the last separated dimension.” Lifa spoke briefly to Xero before taking Gio away with her to catch up with Elena.
Meanwhile, Nell’s team was also on their way to join Elysia’s group. They cleared the demons along their way to the deepest basement.
“Not only demonized soldiers but the real demons as well. This place is demon’s lair.” Nell pursed her lips after several types of monstrous demons were annihilated. Those demons turned to ashes and disappeared, unlike the demonized soldiers.
“We just need to exterminate those who stand in our way. The Demon God is being hunted right now. We need to hurry.” Vanessa beckoned everyone to get back on the move.
“Kuh, it’s only been a few minutes, and I feel like this formation is absorbing much of my magic. What can you see with your future vision ability?” Yuuki felt uncomfortable and then looked at Lynn. She wanted to know what might await them in the last separated dimension.
“…” Lynn paused for a moment and closed her eyes. Everyone is waiting for her for it.
Her face behind her shadow mask paled. She opened her eyes again. “It’s a catastrophe. They have prepared a catastrophe to annihilate us in the last separated dimension. This formation is prepared for that.”
“What kind of calamity is that? Are we going to lose here?” Nell frowned.
“It’s a tool of destruction created to kill the Gods. Their ultimate weapon. I can’t see its exact form because it’s still shrouded in a mysterious mist of shadow. However, I feel someone will rampage there and destroy everything. It’s still pretty vague. I may be wrong…” Lynn heaved a subtle sigh. She felt somewhat relieved the situation wasn’t too terrible.
“Oh, it must be him. Well then, let’s rejoin the others.” Nell felt Xero was the one Lynn saw in that projection.
*Bang* *Bam* *Slash*
Some fighting noises were heard approaching. A group of demonic beasts came from the other side of the corridor, and a group of people in unique costumes chased from behind.
*Swoosh* *Swoosh* *Crackle* *Crackle*
Yuuki released her ice arrows to freeze the approaching demons. The ice also blocked the path instantly.
“You are?” The man in blue armor spread his arm to the side, signaling for his comrades to stop.
“Oh, it’s you.” Vanessa put her hand on her waist.
“Have we met before, ladies?” The man in a flashy red costume pointed at his face.
“No, but our objective may be similar to yours. You should go back upstairs and clean up the remaining demons. There are still many demonized soldiers and demonic beasts.” Yuuki snapped her fingers.
The demons froze in ice, reduced to ashes due to deadly ice pressure. The ice blockade spread out and then sealed the path completely.
