Chapter 152 Cataclysm
Sure enough, clothes maketh a man. The amplification effects of armor aside, Roy felt that his essence, energy, and spirit were different.
After wearing the armor, Roy finally looked like a high-rank demon, and at this moment, he undoubtedly became the ruler of this city.
The low-level demons spontaneously gathered under his command, destroying and killing in this city, intending to wreck it completely. Sometimes, these low-level demons would also hand over some strange spoils of war to Roy, but after looking at them, Roy found that most of them were useless.
As the number of souls in this city dwindled, Roy began to consider whether he should go to other cities to collect souls.
In this End War, humans died on a large scale, but these casualties were mainly concentrated in densely populated large cities because these large cities were the main strategic areas for angels and demons. On the contrary, in remote places, there might still be humans who had escaped, and these places could all become very good sources of souls.
The appearance of the Destroyer had made Roy very vigilant. Although he knew that after the Destroyer appeared, he would definitely cause a fierce conflict with the angels, he did not intend to participate in the battles between these big shots. His goal had always been very clear-use this super war to gather as many souls as possible.
After all, it was very difficult to encounter an Armageddon War. Although the human legends of every world mentioned such words as Armageddon and doomsday, there were not many cases of where a true Armageddon War occurred.
After promoting to high-rank demon, Roy could continue to increase the total amount of his magic power. Now that the nature of his magic power had changed and became condensed pure magic power, correspondingly, every increase in magic power required more souls than before. Without the support of a large number of souls, it was easier said than done.
Perhaps, when Roy went to other worlds in the future, he would need to start a war to harvest souls like other high-rank demons...
After finding a world map again, Roy began to study where he should collect souls next.
However, before he could figure out where to go, a huge change happened!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOn the fifth night he returned to the city from the sea, around dawn, in the distant night sky, a group of strong sun-like rays of light suddenly shone, illuminating the entire night sky!
Almost half of Earth saw this strong flash...
Roy also saw the flash and raised his hand to cover his eyes in astonishment.
At first, he thought that humans had launched another large-scale nuclear attack, but then he realized that this was not the
case.
Roy could feel that the flash of light contained extremely powerful magic power! This immediately reminded Roy of the black dragon, the Destroyer. As soon as he recognized the direction, as expected, it was where the Destroyer had gone.
This strong magic power flash only lasted for a bit before quickly disappearing. But before Roy could put down the arm covering his eyes, another equally powerful magic power flash lit up again!
These flashes appeared in the high-altitude clouds. They were at least thousands of kilometers away, which was the most shocking thing.
Not long after the flash, an overwhelmingly loud sound wave came. It was an extremely powerful explosion that rumbled through the thick clouds like deafening thunder!
This phenomenon that happened in the sky and the abnormal movements on the ground that came afterward caused a major earthquake of at least magnitude ten!
When the vibrations of the earthquake reached the city where Roy was, the entire ground shook violently. The concrete ground began to collapse under these violent tremors, revealing the dark rock layer below. Deep, bottomless fissures formed, causing some demons who could not escape in time to fall in and disappear. The wreckages of the automobiles and buildings left behind by humans also toppled over and fell in.
Hovering in the air, Roy could see huge spiderweb-like fissures appearing on the ground all over the city, which were caused by the earthquake. The center of the city had disappeared, as though someone had smashed the tectonic plates of the Earth with a hammer...
The massive tremors quickly reached the sea, and a shocking low tide appeared on the coast of the sea, revealing the seabed hundreds of meters deep. It was foreseeable that an unprecedented, enormous tsunami would assault the city before long...
Of course, the tsunami would not affect Roy since he could fly. He only looked in the direction of the magic power flashes in bewilderment and doubt.
He was very clear that such powerful magic power collisions should have been caused by the Destroyer fighting someone. Moreover, his opponent was likely also a demon king-level figure. Only the collisions between two demon king-level powerhouses would cause such immense impacts!
Demon king-level power could easily destroy a world. This was definitely not a joke. Even the tectonic plates of the entire land moved. Roy’s city was by the beach, so it encountered a tsunami. Perhaps in other places, there would be apocalyptic disasters such as volcanic eruptions and mountain collapses!
Then here comes the question. Is it dry trash or wet trash... Wait, no. The question is, who is the Destroyer’s opponent?
Is it Demon King Samael? Or a leader of the angels?
Roy guessed that the chances of it being Demon King Samael were higher because the angels did not seem to have such a powerful leader. Their original leader, Abaddon, had already become the black dragon...
Has my previous misgiving really become reality? One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers. Did Samael really clash with the Destroyer?
But there seemed to be many questionable points. Roy swayed his tail while thinking. Logically speaking, the Destroyer had a demonic aura, so it was obvious at a glance that he had fallen because a demon had tempted him. It could be said that a demon had created him. And the problem was that since a demon had created the Destroyer, it must have something to do with Demon King Samael because only he had the power to create a demon king-level fallen, but why did Samael do this?
If he needed the power of the Destroyer to help the demons defeat the angels, then he should not have appeared in the human world but should have let the Destroyer do whatever he wanted. He only needed to hide behind the scenes and watch the show.
However, he had not appeared in the earlier stages of the End War, but after the appearance of the Destroyer, he suddenly appeared. Wasn’t it obvious that he would have a conflict with the Destroyer?
Or was it that Samael had originally planned to gather two demon king-level powers and complete the task in one fell swoop? However, he had underestimated the thoughts of the Destroyer and instead had a conflict with him?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmRoy thought for a long time and felt that there was nothing logically reasonable about it, so he felt confused.
The fierce battle at the demon king level was still going on. From time to time, the flashes of powerful magic power collisions would appear in the sky, causing the ground to shake. Roy had no choice but to hover in the air and wait for this battle to pass.
However, what he did not expect was that the fierce battle lasted for three full days!
During these three days, Roy was about to go crazy. He did not expect demon king-level powerhouses to be so terrifying. Their magic power seemed inexhaustible, and they had been fighting for more than seventy hours without stopping! The entire Earth, the sky, and the ocean were devastated. The seaside city below Roy had long disappeared. It had been destroyed by tsunamis and earthquakes, sinking deep into the seabed. There were numerous mountains missing and countless bottomless canyons.
What is this? This is a f*cking cataclysm!
After the sky no longer had flashes and the battle finally stopped, the drastic changes finally calmed down. But at this moment, the world map in Roy’s hand was useless because he knew that the territories of Earth had long changed...
Roy waited quietly for another day, confirming that the battle had truly stopped, before landing.
The low-level demons who had gathered under Roy had suffered heavy casualties, and only the few that could fly had survived this cataclysm. Most of them had been sent to the resurrection point, and not even a tenth of them was left.
The place Roy was now standing had become a vast ocean, and he could only use his magic power to form a big ice island to rest.
This situation made Roy speechless. He knew that the countless souls that he could have collected on this Earth had definitely disappeared after being tossed about by that huge battle...
While Roy was still at a loss, he saw a figure flying crookedly in the distance.
The radiation light rays from this figure did not look good, constantly fluctuating intermittently. Roy could tell at a glance that this figure was seriously injured.
After the figure continued flying crookedly and came closer, Roy saw the figure clearly and could not help but reach out and rub his demon horns...
He recognized at a glance that this figure was the fallen angel Julia he had encountered before!
At this moment, Julia’s situation was very bad. The armor on her body was even more damaged than last time, and when she flew over, her golden-black blood kept flowing out of her body. She looked like she was in grave danger.
After thinking about it, Roy spread his wings and went forward...
