228 Strike hard and fas (2/2)
It won't be long before members of the Heavenly race come to this place to investigate and even if their injuries were healed, their energy pools were still depleted.
After an hour they landed on an uninhabited island and Zatiel did not waste time.
”Our current goal is to gain complete control over the Fornes continent. We have the Ten Tower Formation put in place. We will gradually expand the range of the force field that weakens the Heavenly race, and once the entire continent is ours, all the Rank 3 Fallen and one Rank 4 Angel of Supremacy can use the gate and travel to the Magi World.”
Nero understood very well that he will be the last of the Fallen who will be allowed to use the World Gate. But since he was set in leaving with all of his people, he had no problem with Zatiel's conditions.
”How the spoils of war will be divided.”
The goal of the Magi invader force in this world was to obtain riches and the Fallen also needed them to help their training.
”In the battles that your people participate in, they will obtain resources according to their contribution. I have a system put in place that is completely unbiased. If after seeing what you gain in our first battle together, you have a problem, we can negotiate again. You will not acquire any land but five percent of what we collect from the places your people helped us secure will be yours.”
The seven winged Fallen found no problem with Zatiel arrangement and after a moment he nodded.
”Ok, now I need you to tell me everything you know about something called Volcano Eruption.” Zatiel's face was serious as he asked the question.
Mr. Grey had told him that the plans of the Sage in this world were related to Volcano Eruption. Although the Neo-Demon did not trust him, knowing more was always better.
Sebastian and the rest of the Fallen were confused when they heard that question but Nero's eyes narrowed.
A smile appeared in the Neo-Demon face when he saw that. Zatiel was sure that Nero had people infiltrated inside the Heavenly race and it appeared their status was not simple.
”Volcano Eruption is a type of drug that the Heavenly race army used when they fought against the demonic horde. Only Rank 3 and below members used it but they were not told what they were or their origin, just that it will make them grow stronger for a limited time. It makes lava scars appear in your skin and the name of the duke who created them is Oliver, an Angelic Paragon with wings made of lava.”
When Zatiel heard those words, his eyes became void of any emotion while a black and vicious killing intent appeared around him.
Ezequiel aura also changed. The natural energy around the Supreme Neo-Demon grew cold.
Nero was surprised by the reaction of the two Neo-Demons. Sebastian and the other Fallen were happy they did not have the slightest connection to the duke of the Heavenly race. It was clear by the expression on the duo's face that they would not let Oliver have a fast death.
”Based on your description, Volcano Eruption also seems to work in Rank 4 life forms. When I fought the duke, he used it to defeat me.” The one who spoke was Zitra. The Magus clearly remembered to see Oliver take a drug that filled his skin with scars made of lava.
The expression of everyone became solemn when they heard that. If there was a drug that any Rank 4 member of the Heavenly race could use to increase their powers greatly, then the future battles will be much harder.
”According to my information, only Volcano Eruptions for Rank 3 and beneath life forms are mass-produced. Those for Soul Forging existences may be extremely rare.” Nero's words made sense. Drugs for Rank 4 life forms are hundreds of times harder to create than for those at Rank 3.
”That may not be true for too long. There is a high possibility the Heavenly race will obtain some mysterious help soon. In any case, my plans do not change much. We will strike hard and fast and butcher everyone in our path.” Zatiel's words were cold. He was determined to slaughter every member of the Heavenly race he finds.
