640 Collection (1/2)
Demon Gorge.
Urias and Sauron walked together, side-by-side.
In this age, when the Night Family Clan is withering, day by day, and there's the occasional news of Evil Demons being killed, they're the only few surviving Evil Demons.
”Those humans…”
Sauron's voice was vicious and was accompanied by a slight hint of fear.
Even Sauron couldn't imagine that the humans, who were originally their source of food, were so frightening once they unleashed their potential.
Even though an ordinary Evil Demon Hunter definitely wasn't considered a worthy opponent against it, the people that Sauron is currently dealing with are no longer considered ordinary people. They're able to develop immunity against ”chaos” and the influence of the ”evil” domain, and they can operate different kinds of powerful weaponry.
On top of that, if you add on a hundred Elite Evil Demon Hunters, then even an Evil Demon will run away at first sight.
Even though it's an Evil Demon King, it'll be injured when blown up by a grenade inscribed with alchemy runes on it.
Simply using this and an unbelievable cardinal number, the humans were suddenly able to catch up. They pushed the demons to their limits, even if they had to suffer short-term setbacks.
Other than hiding in the darkness for eternity like rats, scurrying away at the slightest disturbance, the only other option that was left for them was this—Release the seal on the Mother of Reproduction!
At this moment, in the depths of the gorge, Urias detonated a piece of rock and suddenly saw a passageway paved with mithril. On both sides stood statues of human guards, raising their swords and facing forward.
”Found it, the mithril passageway. The final page of the Dead Sea Ancient Scroll is just inside.”
Urias nodded his head. ”This seal was personally constructed by Dante, especially to restrain Evil Demons. Even we will experience great difficulty breaking through it immediately….”
In reality, if it wasn't for them obtaining all the other clues for the remaining pages from the front page, the Evil Demons wouldn't have been able to gather all the pages of the Dead Sea Ancient Scroll so quickly.
”Isn't this just a bit of mithril!”
Sauron strutted forward one step, landing onto the shiny silvery passageway.
Whoosh!
Huge fumes of white smoke immediately erupted from the bottom of his foot, as though he was scorched. He inadvertently let out a loud scream. ”This is…. higher purity silver? Dante… I curse you!”
Crack! Crack!
On both sides, a loud sound erupted from the statues of the two sword-wielding human guards, and layers of dust were shaken off their bodies. Red light emitted from their eyes as they started to move.
Roar! Roar!
Originally being statues, their movements immediately became extremely aggressive after gaining a life of their own.
Even their strength and speed weren't within the range of an ordinary Demon Hunter.
”Damn it! This decoration…”
Urias instantly transformed into the form of an Evil Demon, releasing fumes of green flames.
”Dante, you can't stop me… You betrayed Mother, but as her most loyal offspring of darkness, I'll unseal her and release darkness to the entire world. I'm the nefarious Evil Demon Sauron, and this is my purpose in life!”
The Evil Demons who were surrounded and attacked, let out a roar. Ignoring the countless sword wounds on their bodies as they finally battered the guardian swordsmen into pieces after a bout of frenzied combat.
”Yes!”
Not long afterward, from the depths of the passageway, came Sauron's frenzied laughter. ”Finally… The page from the Dead Sea Ancient Scroll…..Mother can return quickly!”
”I feel that it's better if we leave immediately.”
Urias, on the other hand, was stiff from head to toe. He suddenly felt that there was some kind of danger around. ”We've wasted too much time here… The Evil Demon Hunters could appear at any moment!”
”You're right!”
A low voice suddenly rang out from behind them, and the head of a golden-haired werewolf was tossed out. ”It appears that the dog you own doesn't have the ability to guard the door well!”
Jock held onto a heavy saber and walked out with huge steps while he looked at Urias with a look of hatred. ”I thank Lady Luck for blessing me… allowing me to find you—Urias! Did you know that I've always been praying for you to not die at the hands of another hunter? That's because I must kill you personally!”
”Maria's father?”
Urias laughed indifferently. However, his face finally changed when he saw Almon walk out.
”Sauron, let's go!” He urged, once again igniting bouts of aquamarine flame.
”Tiger!” Jock roared, and he viciously slashed downward with his large saber as the shape of a large dark tiger seemed to appear in their surroundings.
Thump!
Gravel spewed everywhere.
A large hole erupted from the mountain's core on one side of Demon Gorge, and the shadows of an Evil Demon Hunter and an Evil Demon appeared.
”Damn it….It's just two titled. If I was in a flourishing and powerful state…”
Sauron roared loudly as dark red light shimmered on his entire body.
”This isn't good!”
Urias looked at the sky, and the color on his face changed. He knew the reason why Jock would expose them all to the sky.
Anytime an Evil Demon is encountered, the first step would be to summon a pile of alchemically refined shells onto the ground. The next step would be to use an Evil Demon Hunter, designated ”Area Being,” as the core and launch an all-out attack with countless people and horses. This was already considered to be the established protocol.
”Evil Demon!”
Almon also transformed into the form of a Half-Evil Demon, and her body lit up with aquamarine flames. ”The animosity I have against you for that year at Bay of Pig's harbor… You must pay!”
Although she's come across Urias in human form, it was the first time she saw an evil demon form such as this.
She felt that the flames on his body resembled hers greatly and had a profound feeling.
”Is that so? It's a little cute…”
Urias laughed, ”Sauron, you go ahead first. I want to play with her!”
”…”
Sauron didn't say much. He knew that, at this moment, collecting the complete Dead Sea Ancient Scroll was the most important task, so he immediately opened up his wings and flew into the sky.
If it had been ”Chaos” Evil Demon Cosmo, it would've run forward to attack and kill on impulsive. However, Sauron specialized in the evil domain, and it wouldn't attack without prior consideration.
”Don't even think about….” Jock shouted loudly, and he similarly grew a pair of Evil Demon wings.
Kaboom!
Immediately, half of his body was struck by a green fireball.
”I'm your opponent!”
Urias laughed out loud and instantly looked up at the sky. ”Tonight's starry sky is really brilliant… Exactly like that night….”
”You're courting death!”
