At this time, the sixth abyss.
Ever since all the gold-level and above great demons in the Sixth Abyss were wiped out due to unknown reasons one thousand two hundred and fifty-seven years ago, nothing has ever been worse than what is happening now.
At least that's how it goes for demons.
The 528th reincarnation in which the lava is extinguished and condensed, an ordinary and bloody day like the past, the little devils who were lucky enough to be born have just opened their yellow eyes, and the wandering devils are in every corner of the Sixth Abyss for energy. Hunting each other, the huge war beasts were raised by the lord, and leisurely chewed the corpses of one dead monster after another, but it was such an ordinary day that it was not surprising.
They received unprecedented bad news.
The demon lords' rule over this land is rapidly collapsing.
The city was destroyed, the fortified fortress was ravaged by flames and dragon claws. I don’t know since when, there was a destruction walking on the earth. It started from the Black Sea Plain, and then moved towards it with a rapid speed that was beyond the common sense of the demons. It runs towards the outside world, and then imparts death equally to all beings who are unfortunate enough to encounter it.
One, two, or more than a dozen demon fortresses were completely wiped out. From top to bottom, from the lords to the abyss worms, no life was spared. In just a few days, nearly 70,000 demons were slaughtered and burned. The black smoke from the corpse rose high into the sky, becoming part of the dim clouds.
Most of the demons that were killed did not even know what was going on. In fact, they were killed before they could react, because many demons did not actually have organs that could be used for rational thinking. Before becoming big demons, the thinking organs of many low-level demons are just slightly complex ganglia and chaotic souls made of countless fragments. This is why they can be easily controlled by demon warlocks, but except for those ordinary demons , and many demon lords received secret messages early.
They actually know the truth about destruction, and also know each other's course of action and purpose.
Unfortunately, arrogance made these lords not want to avoid each other. They chose to see each other's power and try to fight against it. This decision ultimately cost them their lives.
Now, on the fourth day when the nameless destruction began to spread, all the demon lords had to admit one thing.
That is, the Sixth Abyss, which has been invading other worlds wantonly in the past, is now being invaded by a powerful being from other worlds.
On the vast black magma plain, gray-black rock buildings are dotted all over, and tens of thousands of middle and low-level demons live in them. Although these rock buildings are poorly made and distorted in style, they are indeed a rare sight of civilization in the abyss. And just on the edge of this rough city, there are countless little devil peons digging black volcanic rocks under the whip of a winged demon overseer. , and then piled them into a hill. A dozen low-level beholders turned their giant eyes to screen, and then selected some fragments containing a small amount of magic power and put them aside. These fragments would eventually be transported to the center of the city by a whole team of violent demons. In a huge black thick tower, become a part of it.
A ferocious giant pupil emblem flashes an uncertain black-red light on the tower, and the entire giant tower is flowing with obvious magic fluctuations. This is exactly how the demon lord here shows his strength. In the abyss with poor resources, he wants to build Such a magic tower is not simple. If not a king, then at least a lord at the peak of the great devil has the strength to build it.
And now, in the core center of the Black Tower, in a dark room, a powerful thousand-eyed demon waved its tentacles inlaid with more than a dozen eyes, silently listening to the speeches of more than a dozen demon lords in the magic projection in front of it. quarrel.
The Forest of Corruption, the River of Fire, the Styx Port, the City of Fester... Around the Black Sea Plain of the Sixth Abyss, almost all powerful demon lords have joined this magic projection meeting. These daily encounters will definitely blow each other's brains out. The violent existence that came out was suppressing its desire for destruction, and was angrily arguing and talking with other lords.
The reason was to discuss how to deal with the alien being who was moving quickly to carry out large-scale massacres.
Demons are free and unorganized, and there are few meaningful exchanges between lords. There are only two possibilities for them to meet each other peacefully. One is to be summoned by the abyss lord at the same time, and the other is for one party to surrender to the other. This is a harsh communication environment. There is no doubt that they are extremely slow to respond to emergencies, especially those from outside invaders.
You know, how many years has it been since no one has been to the Molten Sea Hell? Demons are proficient in destruction and plunder, and are familiar with all matters related to conquest and destruction, but 'defense' and 'responding to invasion' are really beyond their abilities, not to mention that the powerful alien being moves so quickly , even in other powerful normal worlds, it is extremely difficult to prevent it.
"My elite troops were taken away by His Majesty the Lord to participate in the [Bloody Battle]."
In the dozen or so projections, most of the demon lords were arguing with each other or making meaningless roars, but there were still a few who were still having rational conversations and sharing information. In the projection, one was so huge that even The Bone Demon, which could not be completely illuminated by magic, said in a muddy voice: "Including several demon lords who cannot be contacted in the Black Sea Plains, the same is true for all the destroyed demon fortresses. Those of us who stayed behind can only There are less than 10,000 troops left. Facing a powerful existence, this army is simply meaningless, and it can't be done by delaying time."
What it says is true. In fact, because the Sixth Abyss is invading the outside world at this time and is also fighting a bloody battle with another abyss, most of the demon lords and their troops have been recruited by the Lord of the Abyss to participate. The fighting was over. The remaining lords just had a bye, but most of their troops were sent to the front line. At this time, the Sixth Abyss itself was weaker than ever.
"The opponent's route of action is a straight line without any corners." Another demon lord also said. It was covered in ice. It was an extremely rare ice-eating demon from the Molten Sea Hell. Its voice was sharp: " All the dead lords were destroyed because of provocations. In fact, the territory of the brain demon lord who corroded the quagmire was on the opponent's route of action, but because it was slow to react and did not take action, it is still alive now. "
Such conversations are rare in the entire environment, and there is not much actual content. The main reason is that all the demons who have seen that powerful existence have died without a burial place, and no information has been leaked. The old beholder listened again Yes, and then waved its tentacles in disgust. Its body is like an octopus with dozens of claws and feet, but the center is not a weird-shaped head, but a dark gem-like giant eye. The beholder has no The vocal organ can only communicate through mind fluctuations, so when faced with this magic projection meeting, it can only listen.
But it is precisely because it cannot communicate that it can pay attention to every change in the magic projection.
Therefore, when a strange change occurs in a certain magic projection that has also been silent, it is the first to discover it.
It seemed to be a real-time broadcast of a detection array. The perspective was from high altitude. The camera was very stable. The person holding the detection array should be a high-level winged demon. It was flying rapidly below the clouds, towards an unknown place. direction movement.
The beholder was not the only one who noticed this strange change. The voices of other demon lords arguing gradually became fainter. For some reason, perhaps because of instinct, their different ferocious faces stared at this silent one, as if it was just a demon holding a demon. A shot showing the daily patrol of the Winged Demon detecting the magic circle.
"This is the Gray Salt Mountains."
The previous Ice-eating Demon Lord suddenly said: "According to the course of action, the powerful being from the other world should be here now."
No demon answered it. All the lords frowned and looked at the camera. A vague premonition of danger echoed in the hearts of those present, but of course, no demon would admit to their heart palpitations.
The Winged Demon is still flying. Along the way down, the situation around the Gray Salt Mountains is very stable. From the perspective of the detection circle, there are no wandering demons fighting, nor any demonized beasts or other native abyss creatures wandering around. The entire The world is peaceful and peaceful, without any disputes.
It seems normal, but for the abyss, this is the biggest abnormality! There is not a single wandering demon or demonized beast in the mountains of Nuoda? How can it be!
Soon, something unusual appeared.
The detection array slightly twisted its angle, and all the demon lords could see that at the edge of the distant graystone mountains, a huge smoke column rose up and moved rapidly towards the other side of the mountains. Several lords left. Their seats were closer to the magic projection, and they seemed to want to carefully observe the situation in the smoke column.
There is no need to think about it. In that huge smoke column is the true form of the 'existence from another world' they were discussing intensely!
The lens suddenly distorted, as if the signal was blocked, but it quickly returned to normal, and the smoke column was quickly approaching the location of the detection array. Many demon lords present subconsciously held their breath, and they all knew , the other party's true appearance will immediately appear in front of him.
"Boom boom boom——" A low thunderous vibration sounded, coming from the smoke column. It was weak at first, but soon became deafening, and the camera began to become extremely unstable, and the trajectory of the Winged Demon's flight also changed. It began to distort gradually, seeming to be affected by a strong pressure, and subconsciously wanted to stay away, but the demon lord who controlled it naturally would not allow this. With a painful twisting in the air, this winged demon still Obediently, he took the detection array and flew towards the direction of the smoke column.
The first thing that caught the eyes of many demon lords was a ball of golden-red flames.
It was a balrog that was running rapidly. Its whole body was burning with pure flames that had no aura of the abyss. It dragged its long flame tail like a meteorite and moved at high speed on the earth. The fire coming from this balrog The coercion made the flying Winged Demon tremble, and most of the demon lords on the other side of the camera frowned - they noticed that, not to mention the opponent's strange pure flame, the speed of the Balrog had reached several Times the speed of sound, this shows that its strength has reached the peak of the Great Demon. You know, the Balrog is not a race that is good at speed.
But it was obvious that the other party was not the source of the smoke column, so the lords suppressed their emotions and continued to stare at the camera.
The next thing that appeared was a huge black dragon with a strange appearance.
At the forefront of the rising cone-shaped smoke cloud is a black dragon that is running rapidly. It has a huge body more than thirty meters tall. Its strong and smooth body reveals a kind of power and beauty. Its limbs are burning with flames like a nightmare war horse. , every time it sets foot on the earth, it will bring violent explosions and shocks, and this is also the source of the smoke column. Although the black dragon has two wings, the wings covered with bone spurs do not have wing membranes for flying. Rather than saying that they are flying organs, they are more of a structure used to stabilize the body, and the ferocious tail like a chain saw whips from time to time. The earth hits the solid ground of the Gray Salt Mountains into countless light blue sparks.
The Balrog and the Black Dragon were in tandem, moving rapidly in a straight line towards the central area of the Sixth Abyss. This scene made many demon lords feel extremely troublesome. A Balrog at the peak of a great demon was enough to destroy several powerful demons in a row. Insufficient fortress, coupled with an alien black dragon that is close to the level of a great demon, this is a combination that is very difficult for all the demon lords present to deal with together.
Buzz! The lens became more and more distorted, and the powerful energy fluctuations made the detection array unable to operate normally. The winged demon probably exhausted all its energy due to the forcible control of its lord, and fell from the sky. However, everyone present The demon lords are very satisfied. They already know the true face of the enemy - a powerful Balrog and alien black dragon probably from other abyss. Although such an enemy is powerful, it is much better than being completely unknown. At least they can prepare for it. means of coping.
The same goes for the old beholder, staring at the detection lens that is falling from the sky and spinning continuously in mid-air. The cortical wrinkles on the surface of its body that represent age are squirming layer by layer, which means that the big demon is in a good mood. Although it is not good at dealing with high-level demons such as Balrog, which have extremely high magic resistance, it is more than enough to deal with a black dragon. When the time comes, as long as it relies on the magic tower, it will be confident to repel these two enemies.
The meeting resumed, and noisy exchanges reappeared among the magic projections, but the matter was not over. Something surprising happened to the devil.
Following a violent distortion of the camera, the camera suddenly broke away from the presumably dead Winged Demon and flew rapidly towards the head of the black dragon. In the blurry snowflake screen, the old Beholder seemed to vaguely see a A figure wearing dragon head armor.
Buzz! Its energy core suddenly stagnated for a moment, and all the demon lords who were still looking at the lens were shocked.
The carrier of the detection array seems to have fallen into the hands of a certain being. At this time, the distortion has reached the bottom that is completely invisible. The distorted ripples mixed with crazy flashing snowflakes flash at the magic projection, but it maintains incredibly. Communication. The camera flipped for a while, and the unknown being seemed to be looking for which side was the observation port. In the next moment, two dim red lights appeared in the center of the already white communication lens.
Time seemed to freeze.
"You guys."
The owner of the red light, that inexplicable existence, seemed to be able to see through the image and project directly to the other side of the magic projections. He sneered, and then said indifferently: "Are you watching?"
The next moment, time starts to run again!
Click!
Click, click! Click, click, click!
"Hooah!"
"My eyes! My eyes!"
With the rapid sound of objects shattering, all the demon lords who participated in this projection meeting from all over the Sixth Abyss screamed violently, and black-red flames spurted out from their eye sockets, like pillars of fire. In the center of the Demonic City built on a volcanic rock mountain, a series of cracks began to appear in the outer layer of the huge black magic tower, and then suddenly collapsed. Along with the extremely unstable flow of magic power, countless magic items were destroyed by their own power and collapsed. In the process, there were violent explosions one after another!
In the crumbling control center of the Black Tower, the old beholder had already burned into a ball of fire. It let out a spiritual scream, shocking most of the demons in the city to death. The beholder was not dead yet, although it was full of magic power. It was all confused and spontaneously combusted because of the gaze of that inexplicable existence, but it protected the core of its life - but even so, it could not help but recall the scene that made even the devil feel scared.
The scarlet light spot was like a deep abyss. The endless darkness swallowed up all its will, and the sudden flame was the only light in the abyss. It ignited the darkness and ignited everything about itself.
It is a gaze that burns the soul, a fire that destroys the mind.
And on the other side of the lens.
Standing above the black dragon, crushing the obsidian communication circle in his hand, Joshua turned his attention to the system prompt that there had been no new news for a long time.
[Soul-burning Gaze]
