Chapter 180 Trouble Comes
Female demons loved ‘bad boy’ demons. This was how mate selection worked in the Abyss. Although Julia was a fallen angel, she was still from the Abyss, so she was no different from other demons.
The Lord of the Hollows would never have thought that Roy, a high-rank demon, would dare to agree casually to the condition proposed by a demon lord. However, he immediately regretted it.
Perhaps it was because he had been in this world for too long and had been in the Charred Council for too long, causing the Lord of the Hollows to forget how to deal with a demon: all verbal promises without contractual restraints did not count!
It was not that the power of the Lord of the Hollows was not attractive to Roy, but Roy felt that there was a pit in this job and did not want to jump in!
Roy had never seen that demon named Abraxis before, but since the Lord of the Hollow not only did not take action himself but did not tell Roy Abraxis’s demon rank either, how could Roy foolishly run to find trouble with him?
After being perfunctory with the Lord of the Hollows and getting him to leave, Roy turned around and forgot about this matter.
Of course, since the Lord of the Hollows was a demon lord, it was not good for Roy to disobey him blatantly, so the method he planned to adopt was one word: stall!
As for Julia, since she followed Roy, she would definitely support his decision unconditionally. Therefore, after only the two of them were left, they followed their original plan and continued to hunt down the remaining two Seven Deadly Sins.
However, they did not leave the Destroyer’s Tower, which was under construction, too far, and they could still vaguely see the huge floating rocks because, according to the intelligence provided by Vulgrim, Pride of the Seven Deadly Sins was nearby.
Before long, Roy and Julia found Pride...
Just as Fury had said, the Seven Deadly Sins were not demons, and the targets they chose to possess were also different. Pride turned out to be a four-winged angel!
Furthermore, it was a female angel wearing a golden mask. Roy could not see what she looked like under the mask. but what surprised Roy was that this angel possessed by the Deadly Sin Pride was not a fallen angel! Her wings were still pure white!
Finding a demon and a fallen angel appearing with hostility, Pride was unconcerned. Just like the deadly sin she represented, she stubbornly believed that she was the strongest and most perfect of the Seven Deadly Sins. She did not even look at Roy and Julia at all, completely treating them like ants, chattering non-stop to belittle them.
Regarding this, Roy felt quite speechless. He did not know where Pride’s self-confidence came from. Perhaps this was the characteristic that her deadly sin gave her.
After killing several Seven Deadly Sins, Roy discovered one thing—the bodies possessed by the Seven Deadly Sins were all chatterboxes. For example, Lust, whom he had encountered earlier, was a humanoid creature that was neither male nor female. It was fighting while chattering non-stop, attempting to seduce Roy and Julia into joining its camp. It even attempted to provoke Roy and Julia’s lust. At that time, Roy and Julia had almost fallen for its trick. They were already partners and had had a taste, so they were nearly unable to bear this arousal.
But in the end, it was Lust who knelt first because Roy had been guarding against it before the battle. Roy had created a black blizzard from the beginning, and Lust fought Roy and Julia in this blizzard. But finally, it was drained of its magic power by the Magic Power Virus. When Lust realized this and wanted to escape, it was locked down by Roy’s Black Hole and beaten by Julia.
Now, Pride also began using her mouth cannon.
Of course, Roy knew that the words of the Seven Deadly Sins actually carried some of the power of the deadly sins. Every intelligent creature would more or less have some negative emotions. The Seven Deadly Sins triggered the negative emotions of their opponents through their words and led them step by step into the domain they were good at.
Therefore, as soon as they saw Pride using her mouth cannon, Roy and Julia immediately surrounded and slashed her.
However, Pride’s power was indeed very strong. It could be said that she had the highest combat strength among the Seven Deadly Sins that Roy and Julia had encountered thus far. After all, her body was a four-winged angel, which was more suitable for exerting her power than the octopus and goblin bodies that they had encountered before. In the battle, Roy discovered one thing—the damage that Pride suffered during the fight instantly restored, be it sword wounds or frost wounds.
At first, Roy thought that she had a powerful self-healing ability, but then he realized that this was not the case. This was because when Roy used the cover of Julia’s attack to approach Pride and directly grab her with his hand to freeze her entire body, after about three seconds, all the ice on her body disappeared without a trace! He could not see anything resembling shattering, as though the ice had never existed.
This scene made Roy and Julia very surprised, so they became even more cautious in the battle.
Through constant observation, Roy gradually saw some clues. He felt that Pride’s instant recovery was a bit like... distorting reality!
When she suffered an injury, she arrogantly denied this fact, believing that she was not actually injured, so reality distorted due to her pride, making the damage disappear without a trace.
If Roy’s speculation was right, then Pride was really too difficult to deal with. This ability to distort reality was simply invincible!
If Roy had not noticed that her magic power decreased every time she healed like this, and she gradually began to pant during the battle, he might have turned around and left with Julia...
After discovering this situation, Roy one again summoned a large-scale black blizzard. He also activated Cryogenic Fate to try to freeze Pride completely at the ultra-low temperature. But unfortunately, Pride’s special power still eliminated her frozen state. It seemed that her reality-distorting power would take effect even with her consciousness frozen because it was always passively existing and acting on her body. Therefore, this battle could only be one of consumption, but in terms of a battle of attrition, Roy was not afraid of anyone. The large black snowflakes fell, carrying the Magic Power Virus that could continuously devour his opponent’s magic power. And Roy’s Cold Winter Armor gave him powerful magic power recovery speed. As this continued, Roy’s sword would always be slashing Pride.
However, while the battle was continuing, the black blizzard brought about by Roy’s magic power was noticed...
It could not be helped. This blizzard covered quite a large area. Within two kilometers, the weather in the sky over this area was completely different from the surroundings, so it was difficult not to notice!
Not far away, an angel army was hovering in the sky. This angel army was the angel team that came to find Uriel not long ago!
The six four-winged angels leading this group of angels had turned into blood angels after using the Blood Oath. Coupled with the hundreds of low-level angels they led, they were considered a very powerful force among the remaining angel armies in this world.
During this period of time, this angel army had been wandering this land but had not been able to find their revenge targets. Demon Lord Straga, who had killed Abaddon, was currently missing. They searched countless demon gathering points but could not find any traces of Straga. Similarly, Roy, the murderer who killed Uriel, mostly wandered underground because he had been searching for the Seven Deadly Sins.
As time passed, the six blood angels and their angel army became more and more anxious.
The blood angel state formed by the Blood Oath could not last forever. This was the greatest drawback of becoming blood angels. Once the power of the Blood Oath weakened and disappeared, these six four-winged blood angels would immediately turn into bubbles and vanish from the world. Not only would their bodies be annihilated, but even their souls would completely dissipate.
These six four-winged angels had paid such a high price to use the power of the Blood Oath to take revenge. But if they could not find their revenge targets, it meant that they would have offered their lives and souls for nothing. How could they be willing?
Earlier, they had noticed a large number of low-level demons gathering in this area. After some investigation, they discovered that the demons were actually planning to build the Destroyer’s Tower here. Although the blood angels wanted to destroy this demon king’s residence, the one supervising the construction of the tower was actually a demon lord named Abraxis. The blood angels did not want to use the power of their revenge on this demon lord, so they could only leave temporarily.
But after leaving, they spent a large amount of time flying around but found nothing. As the time limit of the Blood Oath approached, the blood angels began to feel a little despair.
Finally, they discussed for a long time and returned to the Destroyer’s Tower once again.
They felt that if they could not find the murderers, they should use the power of the Blood Oath to the greatest extent before it dissipated. It would be good if they could kill a demon lord and destroy the throne of the demon king. Thus, they returned to the vicinity of the Destroyer’s Tower...
As a result, before they could launch an attack on the tower, they unexpectedly found a distinctive climate area in the sky, where black snow was drifting!
The angel army looked at each, turned around, and rushed over, intending to see what was going on.
Roy would never have thought that his biggest trouble was coming...
