Soul of Burning Steel

In the endless world of the multiverse, there is such a myth circulating.

Legend has it that in the more distant past than the ancients, there is no difference between the sky and the earth, there is no life, no death, no light, no darkness, cold and heat intertwined, order and chaos blended, even existence and nothingness There is no way to distinguish between them.

Of course, there is fire born out of nothing, illuminating the void, distinguishing all things and concepts, so far, life and death, light and darkness are separated for the first time, there is the first life in the world, bathed in the bright firelight, and naturally has the first place The dead sank into the dark river.

If the scorching sun hanging above the sky is the source of life, then the river Styx that runs through the bottomless abyss is the representative of death. This dark and waveless river implies passing away and separation, life and death. Boundary, drinking its river water, is to abandon the world with colors and choose to fall into eternal sleep.

Of course, this is just an exaggeration. If an ordinary person touches the Styx, of course they will die in an instant, but if they are a professional, they can slightly resist the most extreme negative energy river. In fact, both the undead and the demons can withstand the power of the Styx in a short time and use this river that runs through all the abysses to go to other abysses. It is precisely because of the existence of the Styx that the abyss is a whole. Rather than countless loose pieces of the world.

The river in the mortal world has a source, and in mythology, the river Styx also has an origin and an end. It is said that its origin is the first world to die naturally, and its end is bred by a **** named'death'. When He was born, it was when the multiverse died out. Countless people or demons were attracted by this myth and tried to find its origin along the direction of the Styx. They explored countless levels and served every world. Numbered, the number of layers of the abyss is based on this, but for thousands of years, no one has succeeded.

The sixth abyss, molten sea and inferno, endless river of Styx.

The Styx of the sixth abyss is located in its center, a vast plain of black volcanic rocks. On the map of the demon lords, it looks like a straight line, splitting the black plain from top to bottom in two. Such a regular shape can be called a spectacle, but it is not its most dazzling time now. ——When the lord of the abyss who expeditioned to other worlds returned with thousands of troops and turned the plain into a boiling molten sea with endless souls as fuel, it was the most magnificent Styx in the center of the endless lava without changing anything. time.

At this time, at the right end of the Styx, a large army was gathering.

The sharp blade reflected the dim light of blood and cut through the darkness of the Sixth Abyss. On the flat sandy ground of the river plain, the scattered and heavy footsteps brought up the wind full of sulfur and blood, causing the dust to fly. The Styx flows quietly, while tens of thousands of demons and monster armies gather from all directions. These demons are different from their scattered and similar species in the marginal area. Even the little demons as cannon fodder have the same kind of shell waste. On the Berserker’s body, the solid armor made of black iron absorbed all the light. Under the command of the Wing Demon officer, they formed a uniform army and gathered under a black banner.

Demons have no loyalty, demons have no organization, demons only know killing and destruction. They are the most unlikely creatures in the world to cooperate, and they are also the species that can never form an army. This kind of life that consumes each other as a means of growth starts from the source. It will be self-destructive. Some scholars once proposed that at the speed of the demon killing and destroying each other, it only takes 600 years for the life of the entire abyss to be completely extinct, becoming a super-cherished species with only one or two in the world, incarnation of chaos. Even if it was purified into ashes by the Holy Light, it would never be possible to gather under the same banner.

The scholar is right, the devil is indeed such a creature, but his doctrine lacks a premise.

That is, there is no demon lord or abyss lord leading them.

The black flag is hunting in the fishy wind, and the flag stands at the forefront of the demon army. It has only one meaning, and that is the authority that represents the sixth abyss, molten sea inferno, one of the four great demon lords. .

Little Devil Engineers, Rage Demon Heavy Armored Soldiers, Eye Magic Array, a horrible army that can only be trained under the power of the Demon Maharaja is gathering, and the long plain on the right side of the Styx has been covered by black. Covered, accompanied by the heavy breathing of the devil, the originally dull and rotten air seems to be drained. The low air pressure sweeps the surrounding air, spreading the dignified breath to the distance.

Looking down from the top of the Castlevania fortress closest to the Styx, you can see the army of tens of thousands of demons surging like a black ocean. At the same time, there are many rivers coming in from afar to continue. grow. The acting commander, the great demon, the leader of the insect demon, Gwaganda, looked down at all of this, and he couldn't help but feel a little trance.

How long.

How long has it been that the demons of the Sixth Abyss have gathered together so solemnly, not for invasion, but for defense?

Three hundred years, four hundred years or five hundred years? Since the birth of an abyss lord and four demon kings in the Sixth Abyss, Molten Sea Hell has never encountered any provocations. Even kings from other worlds who came to this realm are cautious, lest they be attracted. They should pay attention to know that the relationship between the ruler and the four kings is different from that of the other kings in the abyss. Although they are not in harmony, they never internalize each other. Compared with cannibalism, they are more willing to invade other worlds.

When they join hands, any world will tremble, all things will forget to breathe out of fear, and the vegetation will wither out of fear.

But now, the Sixth Abyss is at the weakest moment in history.

The ruler and the four kings have already left the molten sea inferno. They either went to a new orderly world, plundering souls and lives, or went to another abyssal realm to engage in fierce and **** battles with other endless demons. This is not a rare situation. After all, for the demon in the abyss, as long as he can cope with the sneak attack in the surrounding abyss, there is no need to worry about the logistics being attacked. There are many demon lords staying behind, and the rear is not empty.

What's more, no one from the world of order will inexplicably come to the abyss to kill. Killing the devil is not good for them, but it will cause the kings to chase and kill in anger. There can be no one except the madman. Will do it, and it is absolutely impossible for a madman to become a king.

Therefore, this time destroying the existence of all the demon lords around the Great Plains of the Black Sea and the Grey Salt Mountains. There is no doubt that it is a king from other abysses. This is a temptation from other abysses, whether from the way of acting or the description of the surviving lord. So it is. The worm leader Gwa Gunda thought so.

And now, he is coming.

On the right bank of the Styx, the demon army suddenly heard a noisy exclamation. The originally uniform team was shaken for a moment, and Gwagangda also felt an inexplicable anxiety echoing in his heart, anxious. The enthusiasm brought back and forth on its long backbone, the worm leader knew that it was'that one' who came.

"That one" is the name of the unknown demon lord, because no one knows the name of that one, although there are demons who call the other person privately, because no monsters survived in the place he passed, even if he relied on it. The communication array is monitored remotely, and the opponent’s powerful power will burn the eyes and cause serious injuries, but the name has not been spread. This is the meaning of Gwagangda. It does not want its subordinates to be before the start of the battle. Touted the enemy as the existence of the demon king.

The mouthparts with countless inverted bone spurs opened, and a lot of air was inhaled. The worm leader calmed his anxious heart. It turned its four pairs of compound eyes and stared at the Stygian plain ahead. The devil could see the previous actions because of the army. The resulting wind is calming down, but not far away, another hurricane is flying towards this direction, carrying a long plume of smoke and dust.

A flame demon, a black dragon...and a demon lord.

They are coming!

"Niss——————"

--ready!

The screams of insects resounded across the plain. At the same time, the powerful spiritual power of the worm leader enveloped the entire battlefield. It began to issue different orders for each legion one by one, and the ultimate purpose of each order was very clear.

For the prince Helm who is rushing back from another world, they will use tactics, use numbers, use their own flesh and blood and lives to kill as much as possible, or at least drag the enemy in front of them!

Never let him cross this line of defense, never let him destroy the fortress! He must not be allowed to threaten the dominion residence in the center of the Molten Sea Hell! Thinking of this, the worm demon Gwaganda who stood at the top of the fortress issued a second instruction.

"Nazi————"

--begin!

The insect demon gave an order, and the black thousand-eyed banner immediately exuded a powerful pressure. That was the aura that the Lord Helm left on the banner, and following the instructions of this aura, this elite was instantly extremely sharp. A squad of horror troops that was enough to slay the dragon began to act. The little demon forwards roared with sharp voices and raised their swords and guns. Although they feared the pressure from the other side, they were even more afraid of the banner behind them They came to the position where the black dragon on the other side of the Styx must pass, and then they were ready to deal with the impact.

Behind them, an army of violent demons no less than half-blood giants wearing heavy and sturdy armor became the second line of defense. The black armors joined together, looking down from the sky, as if they were one. Block the Great Wall of Steel.

Thousands of beholders and another group of berserkers are behind these two walls, preparing spells and bows. The bows drawn by the berserkers with inhuman strength have destructive power beyond human imagination. The arrow made of the dark iron of the abyss can penetrate the rock wall a few meters away. If it hits it head-on, even if it is Jin Jiyi, the high-level demon will be injured.

They are the most elite troops of a demon army. They have destroyed dozens of worlds and survived **** battles. They are just a demon lord. They have not dealt with them, even if they can’t beat them. , Anyhow it can stop the other side.

All of them are now ready to go, just waiting for the arrival of the enemy.

But at this moment, in the distance, when all the demons were still preparing to deal with the impact, the huge black dragon took a deep breath. It straightened its chest, and the golden core crystal on its chest gleamed even though it was a demon. The scorching light that couldn't be seen directly.

squeak------

The next moment, a sharp buzzing sounded, and a flying star-like light pierced the atmosphere, shattering the silence!

boom! ! !

The huge flash of light hit the array of little demons on the other side of the Styx river frontally. Accompanied by deafening explosions and the hissing of high-temperature dissolving soil, dozens of scattered corpses of little demons were immediately abandoned by the shock wave. It was vaporized by high heat, turned into blood vapor and spread rapidly toward the periphery.

——It's Dragon's Breath!

Upon seeing this, Gwa Gunda, who commanded the army, immediately knew that the black dragon in the distance was probably some kind of abyssal distortion. It was obviously a black dragon that controlled negative energy, but it was able to emit such a hot long-range dragon's breath. Under its command, the blood from the tragic fall of the little demons was absorbed by the ritual held by the beholder behind, and when the next dragon's breath came, a huge shield of **** spells suddenly appeared completely. Blocked, this scene immediately attracted the cheers of the forward demons.

The attack was frustrated. The black dragon and the Balrog didn’t give up. They were still launching their own attacks. Gwa Gunda could see that the pure energy of the Balrog, which was not much like an abyssal creature, began to overflow. Countless golden and red fireballs came out. These blazing white fireballs the size of a human head slowly rose, and then swept toward the demon army at different angles, turning the bends as fast as an arrow. At the same time, you can see that the core of the black dragon’s chest is rapidly glowing and brightening. If the previous brightness was just an ordinary sun, and it felt dazzling, then the brightness is now almost equal to a supernova, and it is completely impossible to look directly at it. Even if you close your eyes, there will be light passing through your eyelids and eyelids, making your eyes feel dry and stinging.

But after an instant, a stream of pure flames, containing no impurities, was mixed with the fireballs of Balrog, like raindrops, and fell toward the demon army!

Boom boom boom! ! ! ! !

Successive thunders sounded in mid-air, and the gray-white shock wave became countless rings. The insect demon watched the enemies in front of him tensely. Its four compound eyes gave it extremely powerful perception and made it dynamic. With vision beyond human imagination, Gwa Gunda hurriedly used the spirit to communicate with every demon in the demon army. Suddenly, a blood-red energy shield appeared in the demon army’s position, under the control of the worm demon. Down, this huge shield easily blocked all the attacks of the Black Dragon and the Balrog at the cost of the lives of a few hundred little demons.

In the distance, seeing the attacks missed one after another, both the black dragon and the balrog seemed to have lost the desire to continue attacking. Both of them gave up the attack altogether, but ran towards the edge of the Styx river, and because of the previous attacks, the No demon can stop their approach.

Then ~www.novelmtl.com~ The Black Dragon and the Balrog stopped on the banks of the Stygian River.

The Stygian River of the Molten Sea Hell is not wide. On the contrary, compared with the real big river, it is actually very narrow, at most only nearly one kilometer wide, but the distance of nearly one kilometer is insurmountable. , Both the Black Dragon and the Balrog knew that without disrupting the opponent’s formation, he could not forcefully cross the Styx under the long-range attack of the tens of thousands of demon army. If strength was required, he would already encounter the most severe demon. Blow.

——It seems that it is correct to gather the army here. When the worm leader saw this scene, his heart was slightly settled. The power of the Styx surpassed everyone's imagination. Even the king could not fly over it, and could only cross the river honestly, and even the king wanted to be together. It is also impossible for the entire demon army to cross the river safely under the full firepower attack.

Thinking of this, the insect demon's heart settled a little bit, everything was under its control. This was seamless. His Majesty Helm would return soon, and the time in between was enough for it to drag on.

Gwa Gunda never thought that the Maharaja would lose. He was so convinced that it waited for another Wing Demon officer to remind him that the Insect Demon discovered that the situation on the other side of the river bank had changed.

It saw it.

The king walked down from the top of the black dragon's head. The terrifying king wearing the dragon head armor came to the Styx and bent down to pick up some of the Styx water. Then, he directly stretched out his hand to the flame demon beside him, and in the screams of the opponent, he forcibly turned it into a great sword burning with pure flames.

Qiao Xiu raised his head and looked at the other side of the river bank, the dense army of demons, and the city behind them.

He weighed the weight of the sword in his hand.

--enough. The soldier thought so, and then smiled.
