Chapter 396 - The Encounter Between Sareth and Dante (1/2)

Following the numerous low-level demons and monsters, Sareth plunged into the jagged rift. The moment he entered, he felt endless light flooding his vision.

However, this light came and went quickly, disappearing in the blink of an eye. After the light disappeared, Sareth found that his environment had changed.

He looked up and saw the starry night sky above, but below the night sky was a wide street. On both sides of the street were various buildings with their lights off. The entire street was a mess, and many vehicles were either overturned or trampled on. There were also some that were on fire, making popping and roaring sounds and illuminating the street with blazing flames.

The entire street was full of demons and monsters, who had rushed out of the rift before Sareth. They were currently reveling on this street as they crazily chased after the fleeing and frightened humans. Screams, gunshots, and the roars of demons and monsters were resounding all the time.

Is this… the human world? Seeing this apocalyptic scene, Sareth could not help but be stunned. But before he could recover, a strong sense of strangeness spread throughout his body.

What’s going on? Sareth stretched out his hand in puzzlement, only to find that his arm, which had been full of cuticles, was gradually fading and turning into a white and smooth human arm.

Sareth was a little scared. He hurriedly took a few steps back, only to bump into the wreckage of a car. On the driver’s seat of this car, there was a shriveled human sitting motionless with his head drooping. It was a corpse that had its blood sucked dry.

From the rear-view mirror of the car, Sareth saw his body’s tremendous changes.

His brow bone, which had looked like demon horns, was shrinking at this moment. His dark and deep eyeballs gradually turned white, and the blood-colored iris in his pupils turned blue. Even his body shrank a little. Only his hair did not change, and it was still his wild long red hair.

Is… is this my human form? Sareth was shocked. It was the first time he saw this appearance of his, and he immediately remembered what Roy had said.

When he entered the Purgatory World from the Abyss, Sareth had not felt any obstruction. But when he entered the human world from the Purgatory World, he changed from his demon form into his human form. Had Foster Father really guessed this change correctly?! He could feel that after transforming into his human form, besides his appearance changing, his strength did not change much. This should be the so-called world repulsive effect, right? But because he was a demon-human hybrid, the world repulsive effect did not have any suppression on him and did not affect his strength at all. It only allowed the human bloodline in his bloodline to have the upper hand and reveal the human form.

No wonder Foster Father said that those with a demon-human bloodline could travel unobstructed in human worlds. As long as I become a human, I won’t be treated as a foreign object in this world… Sareth understood a little.

While he was still looking curiously at the changes to his body, he suddenly heard a clicking sound next to him. He looked up and found an ant-like monster staring at him. It stood upright, with two pairs of short tentacles on its chest. Whip-like appendages covered its bald head, and the tail of its lower body was a large lump of bulging sacks. It was a dense tissue formed from red blisters, and it looked absolutely disgusting. This monster was staring intently at Sareth with a look of greed in its eyes, and saliva kept flowing out of its pincer-like mouth.

Sareth suddenly realized that the monster had mistaken him for a human because of his human appearance.

Creaking sounds kept coming. The nearby monsters with the same appearance gathered one after another, all of them staring at the human Sareth.

Facing these monsters, Sareth could not explain to them that he was a demon, so he decided to strike first to gain the upper hand. Fortunately, the spatial rift he rushed out from just now had already closed, and no more monsters emerged from it, so he could use his weapons without any reservations. Bang! He pulled out Calamity from his leg and injected dark magic power into it. He shot at the head of the ant monster that rushed at him first! A ball of black light instantly shot out from the muzzle and hit the ant monster. The ant monster only had time to scream before black smoke began emitting from its entire head from the corrosion of dark power. With just one shot, Sareth killed the ant monster. Then without giving the other monsters time to react, he aimed Calamity and fired continuously. Dark bullets and flame bullets alternated as he quickly cleared the monsters surrounding him. After being killed, these ant monsters left small soul balls where they died. Under the principle of not wasting, Sareth collected these souls, but then he remembered that he did not seem to have a soul storing method, so he could only devour these souls on the spot.

After inserting Calamity back into the holster, Sareth looked at the distant street. Farther away, he could hear fierce gunshots. It seemed that humans were fighting the demons and monsters that had just flooded out, so he thought for a moment before rushing toward the gunshots.

At this moment, at the end of the street, several light armored vehicles were shining with red and blue lights. Not far in front of the armored vehicles, there was a temporary bunker built with sandbags and a human army of about dozens of people wearing uniforms, tactical helmets, and holding assault rifles in their hands. They relied on the bunker to open fire frantically at the demons and monsters that were constantly rushing over. The noisy gunshots covered the sound of the shells hitting the ground. “Hold on! Hold on! Don’t retreat!” A commander roared orders while pulling his trigger desperately. The flames from the muzzles illuminated his ferocious expression.

However, even with such powerful firepower, the distance between the demons and monsters was still shrinking. These human troops did not have magic bullets, and ordinary bullets could only cause limited damage to demons and monsters. No matter how accurate their marksmanship was, it often took dozens or even hundreds of bullets to kill a monster.

Moreover, it was the lowest-level monster, not even a low-rank demon…

They were powerless to stop the monsters from approaching. When the monsters reached a certain distance, they jumped up one after another. Facing the bullets, they trampled down on the human soldiers. With the cries of despair and fear of the human soldiers ranging out, the monsters lowered their heads to bite through the soldiers’ clothes and protection and began to devour their flesh and blood.

Soldiers died one by one as they screamed helplessly…
