Chapter 557: Three Levels of Great Hell (1/2)
Only a few demons knew that Zacharite had a family. After all, he hid them so well for many years. However, there was no secret that couldn't be kept. The time came that Great Demon Ball caught wind of this and immediately dispatched his people to confirm this.
Upon discovering the truth, the great demon immediately delivered a kill order for Zacharite's family. After all, it was a breach of law when Zacharite decided to keep his daughter knowing it wasn't allowed.
”If you want to take revenge on him, I can help you with that. We have to face him sooner or later, so let's do this.” Jin Rou could see the intense hatred in the demon's eyes, ”However, in exchange, you will be the forever guardian of the two friends I made here.”
”You mean that emperor and ancient king brats, Your Majesty?” Zacharite was elated when he heard Jin Rou would help him, ”Of course, as long as you can kill Baal for me, Your Majesty. My life is yours.”
Jin Rou smiled. Beings tend to sacrifice themselves in order to seek revenge and vengeance. It was a natural emotion yet it was scary when it got out of control.
The Great Hell had 32 great demons in the past. However, it was now reduced to 10 since the 22 great demons either died in battle or died of age.
Although the hell had only 10 top beings, they weren't to be underestimated as all of them were ranking shoulder to shoulder.
Furthermore, the Great Hell consisted of three levels which needed to pass through to reach where the portal going to the Upper Immortal was.
The Level 1 Hell was where Jin Rou and Zacharite currently were. This was the the place where poor demons were enslaved to make a living. It was literally a hell for demons with the lowest status. Every year, many demons commit suicide when they experience the true hell of this level.
The Level 2 Hell was where some of the great demons lived and made territories. It was a place that only those with status could roam around.
And lastly, the Level 3 Hell. It was the highest level of the Great Hell and this was the turf of the most powerful Great Demon, Baal.
”How can we get to the Level 3?” Jin Rou asked.
”We need to go to Level 2 first. There is no shortcut towards Level 3 as it was heavily guarded by great demons.” Zacharite shook his head.
”I see.” Jin Rou pondered for a moment, ”So we really have to take the trouble of going first to Level 2. Sigh.”
He couldn't help but let out a sigh. It would take more the time since they needed to pass one more level to reach the last level but he had no choice either. He wasn't familiar of this place and wouldn't dare to wreak havoc like a mad man.
”Where is the portal towards Level 2?” Jin Rou asked, ”We should get going so that we won't waste so much time.”
”It is a bit from here, but I can use teleportation since I left a mark there in the past.” Zacharite smiled.
