Chapter 150 - The Destroyer Appears (1/2)

To be honest, Gasric’s words gave Roy a reminder.

Now that he had promoted to high-rank demon, he was bound to go deeper into the Abyss after returning. It was a world occupied by high-rank demons, and with the fewer high-rank demons, the chance of encountering Xeron would become quite high.

Although Roy’s current appearance was completely different from when he first met Xeron because of his promotions and modifications to himself—and even if he met him, Xeron might not necessarily be able to recognize him—the problem was that when demons distinguished people, sometimes it was not entirely based on appearance but maybe also based on their magic power, aura, soul, and so on.

In particular, the true name of a demon took root in their soul, and there might be some kind of magic that could trace the demon through their true name.

Of course, Roy was now also a high-rank demon. Even if he really fought Xeron, Roy would not be afraid. Moreover, Xeron was someone who played with fire magic, and Roy’s frost power would be able to restrain him.

In fact, Roy guessed that Xeron would have never thought that he would advance from low-rank demon to high-rank demon in such a short amount of time. If they really did meet, he would definitely be shocked…

After they chatted for a bit, a sea demon suddenly came to the surface of the water and said to Gasric excitedly, “Your Excellency, we’ve found traces of humans! Their ship that can sail under the water is about fifteen kilometers away at the seabed. It’s a big one!”

Upon hearing this, Gasric was energetic and immediately spread his wings and flew up. The sea demon led him on the sea while he flew toward the human nuclear submarine.

Roy followed closely behind. Not only him, but all the demons nearby who heard the news also gathered. There was a lot of hubbub as a dense mass moved forward, looking like migrating birds…

When Roy and the others were about to arrive, an enormous wave suddenly rose from the water as a huge object broke out of the water. With a loud bang, the tail of the thing emitted a giant flame.

But there was not only one such item but three in total!

The demons gathered around were shocked and could not help but give way. They were not too sure what these things were.

Roy was the first to react, and he immediately shouted, “Catch up and stop them! Those are human submarine-launched missiles!”

The nuclear submarine at the bottom of the sea must have been surrounded by the sea demons. After realizing that it could not escape, it made the decision to perish together and recklessly launched all the remaining nuclear bombs! Hearing Roy’s words, the high-rank demons reacted and immediately flapped their wings to catch up. These submarine-launched missiles were currently in the initial acceleration phase, so the speed at which they rose was not too fast, and the high-rank demons soon caught up.

Gasric was the fastest flyer. After catching up to a missile, he swung his claws!

With a click, his sharp claws easily cut the steel shell of the missile into two. The bottom half continued to ascend a distance, while the top half fell because of the loss of thrust.

A high-rank demon took a deep breath and spat out an enormous black fireball from his mouth, wanting to burn the top half down!

Seeing this, Roy broke out in cold sweat. Without even thinking, he immediately waved his hand, and a black ice wall formed in midair to block the path of the fireball. After the fireball hit Roy’s ice wall, it immediately exploded violently, and then the fireball and ice wall perished together. The top half of the missile continued to fall. Some flying demons reacted quickly and swiftly flew forward to catch this half of the missile.

The high-rank demon who spat out the fireball was taken back for a moment before looking at Roy. “Why did you stop me?”

“Damn it! Do you want to bury all of us here?!” Roy could not help but curse at him. “That’s the section that carries the bomb! The high-temperature impact might cause the warhead to explode!”

Hearing this, the high-rank demon broke out in cold sweat. He knew that he had made a mistake, so he stopped speaking.

In fact, they had witnessed the horrors of the human weapons during the first nuclear attack. They were able to survive because they were not in the center of the explosion, but if they were not careful and accidentally detonated a nuclear bomb here, it would really be over…

The flying demons flew over with half of the missile and respectfully awaited for Roy to handle it.

Roy stepped forward and pressed his claws on the missile. With a clink, black ice immediately spread and froze all of it.

Roy actually knew that high-tech weapons like this were usually equipped with safety devices, and they would rarely detonate due to collisions or high temperatures. But the problem was that he did not dare to bet that the safety devices would be effective against the flames of hellfire. Furthermore, there might be something like remote detonation.

Therefore, he had to handle this warhead. With the temperature of his Dark Cold, it was enough to freeze the electronic components inside the missile, making it no longer work.
