631 Secretive (1/2)
The entire white Sacred Mountain turned black in an instant.
What kind of concept was this? To Demon Hunters, there was no doubt that the heavens had turned into hell!
This struck a blow to both their minds and faith!
If there wasn't a problem with the nature of the original power, why would Sacred Mountain change color in a split-second?
Although the low-grade Demon Hunters wouldn't think much about it, the high-grade Demon Hunters would think about this detail.
And this brought about instability.
”Impossible… Why did Sacred Mountain become like this? Could it be that we, the Demon Hunters, were wrong from the start… What exactly did we do in the past?”
An A-grade Demon Hunter had a mental breakdown after witnessing this scene and was instantly infected by the chaotic field. He went on to wildly shoot his partners around him.
To the point that, within the dark red light, scales began to appear on his body, and fangs grew in his mouth. He had degenerated into a demon!
As Demon Hunters that often used Sacred Water to train, they were, in fact, just one step away from becoming a degenerated demon.
Currently, with the addition of his mental breakdown, there was also the influence coming from Sacred Mountain's radiation, as well as the constant bewitchment of the Evil Demons. This amplified this possibility limitlessly.
”The Evil Demon army actually failed to invade Sacred Mountain that time, but they were successful in leaving a brand on the mountain's body. This time, with the blood offering of the city, they finally succeeded and reversed the nature of Sacred Mountain,” Urias said as he smiled and looked at Longinus.
After losing the support from Sacred Mountain, the original Sacred Spear was still glowing brightly but could no longer spread throughout the whole city.
On the other hand, the Evil Demons cheered happily and began to become arrogant.
”Wipe out all the Demon Hunters!”
”Destroy the Sacred Weapons!”
”Darkness will definitely rule the world and rebuild the Dark Empire!”
…
”Sir!”
In this situation, even the Titled Demon Hunters looked at Longinus with worried expressions.
”We cannot ruin the hard work of the first generation Evil Demon hunters and the contributions of the previous generations of Sacred Weapon holders with our hands!”
Longinus had a determined look, and his back was upright like a javelin. He raised his sacred gun high in the air and shouted, ”Kill!”
Buzz!
The spear point of the sacred spear shone with a blood-red light, and suddenly, as if it had stabbed through space, it went to the front of an Evil Demon.
Poof!
The spear point stabbed into the chest of the Evil Demon without any resistance. Brilliant sacred light exploded like a small sun. The Evil Demon within it instantly turned to ashes.
”No one can be a match for us!”
”No one can be a match for us!”
Even without the support from Sacred Mountain, Longinus's spear was still the rank 1 offensive Sacred Weapon. It attacked and killed an Evil Demon like it was as easy as pie.
Witnessing this scene, the morale of the Demon Hunters instantly rose.
Cosmo, Zoro, and Ainz, who appeared, bellowed loudly, ”Humans! You made use of our powers to go against us… That traitor's mistake must be corrected today!”
…
Large library.
As the center of the Demon Hunter headquarters information stockpile, Fang Yuan was a regular customer here.
Of course, due to his identity and rights, he couldn't enter some of the top-secret areas.
However, now was a golden opportunity bestowed to him by the heavens.
A large number of Titled Demon Hunters were mobilized due to the Evil Demon invasion. Even though there were still some members keeping guard, the defense was definitely much more flawed.
The main point was that the nature of Sacred Mountain had suddenly changed, and dark red light enveloped the entire mountain. It basically turned this place into hell!
Even Titled Demon Hunters who stayed on Sacred Mountain would be affected by it!
Many seals and traps, that were previously set up, made fragile sounds and were ruined.
”You're good!”
Fang Yuan looked at the brilliance on the ground and heard the agonizing screams of many Demon Hunters outside. Regardless, he acted as if a breeze passed by.
”Analyzing, this is only a large change, but this time it changed the Sacred Water's sacred power, into the Evil Demon's original power!”
As long as it was power, it could be controlled!
Based on the confidence he had in his body, and the many experiments he performed on changing the nature of power, he could also adapt quickly, even if he became an Evil Demon.
However, it was clear that other Demon Hunters didn't have such an ability.
”This is really fortunate…”
While he was invisible, Fang Yuan came to the large library. The public area had long become empty, and some books fell onto the floor, obviously in a complete mess.
”Level 2! Level 3!”
His steps didn't stop as he went straight to the entrance of the top-secret area on level 4.
At this moment, the two honorable stone statues and the guarding mechanism both lost their source of power due to Sacred Mountain. They were completely on strike, causing Fang Yuan to say out loud how lucky he was before he walked right in.
”'Legends of Titled Demon Hunters'!”
”'Secret of Hundred Years' Hunt of Witch's Movement'!”
”'Evil Demon Autopsy Study'!”
”'Degenerated Demon Hunters List'!”
