Chapter 574: Doomed Fall

"I really can't imagine that in the sanctuary there is a being that is infinitely close to the 'primordial'...... As an outsider, it is shocking to be able to come into contact with the ultimate mysteries of this world in such a short period of time. Mephisto's voice not only did not bring the slightest sense of fear and ferocity, but was quite gentle and calm, unhurried, and sounded like a wise elder who had experienced many vicissitudes.

As the saying goes, "A gentleman's revenge is not too late for ten years." "Hatred and revenge have always been undertakings that require patience, faith and wisdom, and even more, they are as touching as a drama and as magnificent as an epic. Therefore, there are revenge allusions such as "lying on the salary and tasting the guts", "although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu", etc., which are passed down as good stories for the ages, and there are works such as "The Prince's Revenge" and "The Count of Monte Cristo" are cited as eternal classics. Blindly venting like crazy and fighting to the death is just a manifestation of hatred. Hatred and revenge in a broad sense can even transcend selfish desires in a certain way, and become a supreme pursuit that can make individuals, groups, and even countries and nations pay a huge price and sacrifice for it, and after several generations, they still have no regrets and only want to drink this cup of long-lasting and sweeter wine called "revenge and shame".

Therefore, as the Great Demon God who rules and abates, it is not surprising that Mephisto has this atmosphere.

"Because your world is too 'small'!" The other party was not in a hurry or impatient, and Wang Zongchao naturally dealt with it calmly, "In comparison, I just have a slightly broader horizon." ”

In terms of years of existence and experience, Wang Zongchao can never be compared with Mephisto. However, Mephisto was confined to the Dark World, a small and growing plane that was not yet a multiverse. Just like a 100-year-old man who has never left the remote mountain village where he was born, his vision and insight are often not as good as those of a person who has traveled around the world. A teenager who knows how to use the modern Internet. What's more, the demon god is also limited by his own attributes. It is inherently inaccessible to the source of chaos, and humans have this potential. But the history of civilization is still too short.

And Wang Zongchao was not surprised that Mephisto knew that he was an outsider. After all, the Middle-earth team has used all kinds of unheard of methods in the attack, and as a demon god born at the same time as the universe, it would be strange if he couldn't guess this. However, Wang Zongchao estimated that Mephisto did not know the relevant information about the main god and the reincarnation team.

Even between the three demon gods, they may not be really like brothers. After Diablo learned about the main god space and the reincarnation team information from the newcomers of the Zhongzhou team, the most likely possibility was that he wanted to swallow a piece of the reincarnation team alone, instead of sharing it - unless he found that he couldn't swallow it alone. After all, judging by the plot in the future. Diablo also has the ambition of annexing other demon gods and demon kings and realizing the unity of the seven demons. And when he began to implement the plan against the Zhongzhou team, Wang Zongchao and Zheng Zhe's counterattack was too urgent and sudden, which made him unable to inform Mephisto of the information of the Zhongzhou team after all.

So, for now, this is undoubtedly a big information advantage.

"Is this world ...... 'small'?" Mephisto muttered to himself, then sighed, "In that case, as outsiders, you have nothing to do with hell or heaven. And why are you standing in the path of conquering me?"

"Naturally, there are some reasons to come. Wang Zongchao didn't want to explain this, and added slightly mockingly: "In short, it's not because of 'hatred'!"

"I can see that......" Mephisto shook his head with some regret. The power of the Demon Gods and Demon Kings can be exerted to the maximum when the opponent has the corresponding situation. Diablo can even be ten times stronger when dealing with opponents who are afraid of him. Now Wang Zongchao does not have a grudge against Mephisto, but makes him have a headache.

"Still. Since it is not because of 'hatred', it is mostly a matter of interests. Since it is for profit, it can be traded. "But soon. Mephisto offered another proposal, "If you want Curast, the Eastern Continent, or even the entire Sanctuary, I can promise to quit the fight!"

"Oh......" Wang Zongchao was a little surprised when he heard this, and waited for the other party to continue.

"I have no doubt at all that the strength you have gathered can destroy the Radiant Realm, or that you can defeat me. However, it is impossible not to pay the price. Perhaps, the price you pay will be greater than you think. Mephisto explained with great earnestness, "But, if you and I cooperate a little, you can have a near-bloodless victory." ”

"So the condition is - I have to let you go?" Wang Zongchao laughed dumbly when he heard this.

"But I will still leave behind a body that can be accounted for, and a 'Soul Stone' that cannot be destroyed by conventional means, and it will still be a flawless victory for you. Mephisto continued, "Of course, you don't have to worry about causing trouble to your prestige as soon as I escape. For after abandoning Sakaram, my power has weakened to the point where I have to return to Hell in order to recover, and I will not be in the Sanctuary again for at least a hundred years. Of course, you can also have another option if possible. ”

"Another option?"

"That's to take me to your own world. Mephisto said with an indescribable melancholy, "Although I have enough patience, in the sanctuary world, it is always difficult to get anything. If I could, I would like to see the bigger world. ”

Wang Zongchao couldn't help but laugh when he heard this, this demon god really deserves to be the elder brother of the three demons, not only is he cunning, but also very decisive, and the two trading conditions he said are far better than the plan to the end.

Don't look at Mephisto who has now corrupted the entire Sacalam and even the Eastern Continent, and has controlled an unparalleled huge power, but he can't hide that he is just a caged bird trapped in the "Realm of Light" and unable to gain freedom. Only by simply abandoning the entire Eastern Continent along with the cage can there be a chance to break out of a new world.

Mephisto was the first demon god to realize the potential of humanity and the Sanctuary and to banish himself and his two brothers to the Sanctuary at all costs, and he was equally determined. When he gained insight into the extraordinary world behind them from Wang Zongchao and the Zhongzhou team. I had the idea of finding out.

"The latter condition sounds good. Wang Zongchao replied quickly, but added: "But I must be wronged to leave this world with me in the form of a pure soul stone." ”

"Sound. This is still a long way from what I expected. Mephisto sighed, "I don't want to bargain. Is it really not negotiable?"

The conversation between the two seemed to be gentle and polite, but in essence, no one was idle.

In less than a moment, the chains composed of thousands of twisted souls entangled with each other had already besieged Wang Zongchao in all directions, and they were connected to each other, forming an impermeable net that affected the whole body.

What connects every twisted soul is hatred!

I hate you, you hate me, entangled and biting each other. Retribution for injustice, endless death. Hatred has constituted a web of evil fate that is constantly cut and unreasonable, and once it is stained, it will be like a maggot attached to the bone, and it will never go away again. Who can smile lightly and detach from it?

The highly condensed Fallen Light rendered the Dao chains into sacred silver, and in a dazzling light, it even looked like the "shackles of order" in Heaven.

Yes, this is also an order. An order built with hatred.

And the one who controls this chain, in addition to the tall Mephisto, there are six unspeakable deformed and weird figures, and there is no symmetry on the whole body. The face is even more hideous, so that people can see a monster that can have nightmares for a lifetime, but it is strangely very majestic, like a big man who has been in the top position for a long time.

Seemingly. They were supposed to be former members of the Supreme Council of Sakaram, but now they were implanted with Mephisto's soul stone. Become a doppelganger of six puppets.

Looking at the twisted souls one by one, Wang Zongchao seemed to be able to see how they tended to fight among themselves, frame, beware of each other, and hate each other under the drive of extreme and extreme doctrines during their lifetimes—when they prayed with a little misdemeanor, when they sang hymns. If one is not pronounced correctly, his companions will scramble to report malicious blasphemy; when copying a sacred text, a little ink accidentally stains the angelic pattern in it, which is even more "evidence of crime" that cannot be argued; as for the understanding of the doctrine, there is a slight difference between them, and it is even more necessary to chase and fight each other until the other party's one qiē is completely eliminated and negated...... In this way, the whole of Sakaram, from top to bottom, from the high-ranking members of the Supreme Council to the ordinary citizens, from strangers to close relatives and friends, inevitably fell into this vicious circle of mutual suspicion, mutual vigilance, and even intrigue and framing each other in the name of sacredness, and fell deeper and deeper into the net of hatred.

In fact, Mephisto, who was always trapped in the "Radiant Realm", rarely killed people with his own hands. Therefore, almost all of the hundreds of thousands of victims in front of them hated each other, persecuted each other, and killed each other. These hundreds of thousands of twisted souls and the intense hatred they entangled with each other have formed a heavy shackle that binds the body and imprisons the soul, making it more and more difficult for Wang Zongchao to move.

Not only that, but the thick "Chaos Force" in his body continued to merge and assimilate with the massive amount of Fallen Holy Light, becoming thinner and thinner.

As the connection between them became deeper and deeper, Wang Zongchao also began to feel the various rules of the Radiance Realm, including its defense and sealing characteristics, the various containment, blessings, and attack effects of the Holy Light, as well as the opening of portals in the range of the Holy Light, and even the rules of Hate Shackles, Vengeful Spirits, and Forced Puppets derived from corruption. These rules basically belong to the effects of the god domain or the demigod domain, and they cannot be used alone, but for the "Middle-earth Martial God", they have considerable reference value.

But it's all mutual, and as he gets to know each other, it also means that the other person knows him better through the Fallen Light.

"It's obviously flesh and blood, but it seems to gather countless elemental spaces that interact with each other in series, each with its own rules and attributes, providing you with immeasurable energy, which is really quite amazing...... I will never underestimate any of the beings who have touched the 'primordial', if you dare to come alone, there must be enough to deal with this situation. Mephisto said slowly, not in the slightest complacent, "but even if you can win, it will definitely be very difficult to win, and I advise you to seriously consider my offer." ”

"But I don't think so. Wang Zongchao smiled and shook his head, "We can not only win, but also win very neatly." ”

"Really?" Mephisto didn't mean to be mad at all. Instead, there was an unfathomable calm, "I'd like to see when you see the heavy casualties of your comrades." Can we still put an end to 'hate' feelings?"

Between the dialogues between the two sides, the three floating giant mountains have continued to advance for dozens of miles. It was less than ten miles away from Fort Trivank, and many of the cannonballs, bows and arrows fired had even hit the ground in front of Fort Trivanke, but none of them could threaten the glorious field that enveloped the entire fort. And the battle line also moved as the three floating giants advanced, becoming more and more intense, reaching a kind of incandescence Cheng dù.

Below the three floating giants, countless powerful and fierce demonic beasts and dwarven natives who could not fly had already gathered. Kurast, once the largest and most developed city in the Eastern Continent, has a dense network of rivers and sewers, which are now the passage through which wild beasts and natives quickly gather. Although facing high-altitude targets, they can only roar and curse in vain for the time being, or blow and spray poisonous arrows and venom that cannot reach the target at all. But once the three floating giants were shot down. They will definitely drown their target like ants eating corpses!

In the sky, thousands of Sakaram berserkers fought to the death with frequent flashes of portals and wings of light blessed by the Fallen Light, all kinds of magic, magic, artillery, bows and arrows, and curses collided with each other. In addition, there are many flying monsters involved in the attack, but they are basically cannon fodder-like characters.

Every meter that the Floating Giant advanced in the air was accompanied by the fall of many demonic beasts, berserkers, and broken mechanical bugs. However, after the death of each berserker, he will turn into a vengeful spirit and fight to the death. While these vengeful spirits can be reborn in Mephisto's flesh pool by returning to the realm of light, they have chosen to fight to the death until their souls are completely destroyed, or to join their companions to continue the fight.

Gradually. With the vengeful spirits constantly gathering the power of the dead, the remaining hundreds of Sakaram berserkers are already masters. However, compared to the heavy casualties on the side of Sakaram, the casualties on the human side were still quite light.

It's just that so far, the basic participants in the war are ranged attack mages, archers, mechanical bugs, flying golems, summoning magic pets, and so on. The warriors basically attacked with the support of the magic circle when a few Sakaram berserkers attacked the floating giant. Casualties were limited.

In addition to the fact that there are no weak human professionals who participate in the war, there are hundreds of people at the master level alone, the key is also the miraculous work of the mountain array arranged by Saitoichi. However, under frequent attacks. The three floating giants are also constantly crumbling and shrinking, and their images are becoming more and more distorted and blurred. It doesn't seem to be able to support it for long.

Suddenly, the silver-gray sky rendered by the Fallen Holy Light suddenly sunk downward. It's like a piece of skin that has lost its elasticity and slowly falls!

In the next moment, the heavenly dome shattered, and the holy light that had originally shrouded the sky was torn apart by the furious elemental energy that fell from the sky, as if the entire world was directly exposed in front of the furious elemental plane.

A thick cloud of fire simmered above the sky, and a ribbon-like flame swept down.

A huge glass light shield formed by blue waves and water ripples was wrapped in countless flying hailstones and frost waves that slowly descended.

The giant black turbidity clouds formed a strange python-like tornado vortex, with crimson demonic lightning, mixed water and fire into a boiling energy tsunami, accompanied by a thunderous explosion, whistling and tumbling, all the way down from the sky.

A super-large magic system that combines a fire system, an ice system, and a wind power system, all of which are quasi-forbidden spell level!

The quasi-forbidden spell level is already the upper limit of the magic level summoned by the Sakaram Chanter Troupe, after all, the number of people alone cannot completely make up for the lack of magic cultivation height, even if they gather more people, they can't summon a real forbidden spell-level magic similar to the "Five Fire Cloud Technique". However, combined with three quasi-forbidden spell-level magic, the lethality is only slightly inferior, and it can't exert the effect of a pure element repelling and devouring other elemental powers, negating other magic, and covering an area that is several times larger.

This kind of super-large-scale elemental magic summoning can't be hidden from opponents with a large number of mages. However, Mephisto shielded and isolated the senses with a high concentration of depraved holy light, confusing the public, so that the human side did not realize what was going on until the quasi-forbidden spell hit his head.

However, this must be at least a concentration of holy light within ten miles of the "Radiant Realm" to meet this requirement, and Mephisto also endured it for a long time before he made this kill.

The elemental tides of rage and chaos are like flash floods. The chaotic space made an overwhelmed and strange sound!

The colorful elements are like huge and incoherent flowers, falling from the sky. Extinguish the brilliance of all things.

After only a little contact, it was already overwhelmed. The crumbling three mountain illusion barriers, like a soap bubble, completely disintegrated, revealing the three flying giant ships at the core, and then completely overwhelmed by the furious elemental energy.

At the same time, the remaining hundred or so Sakaram berserkers rushed into the elemental torrent desperately, pouring the strongest attack of their lives onto the flying giant ship while their bodies were also wiped out in the furious elemental torrent.

Every berserker who died unleashed at least dozens of swarms of vengeful spirits, thousands of which resembled beasts released from prison. Wildly unleash all their resentment, only to drag their enemies to hell with them! Due to the excessive consumption of energy to maintain themselves, their forms are also quickly annihilated in the torrent of elements.

The Vengeful Spirit's attack has the effect of copying the fatal damage and pain suffered in life to the possessed subject, and this kind of spiritual attack cannot be resisted by the elemental shield. In other words, everyone on the Flying Giant Boat is doomed to be doomed as long as there is a slight shortcoming in the resistance of the three series of elements and the spiritual resistance. And because of the shock wave of the ice and fire martyrdom. In addition to the damage of falling from a high altitude, those with slightly weaker physical resistance are also in danger!

Although legendary and titled master-level characters may survive with excellent equipment, it is absolutely inevitable that they will suffer heavy casualties after this catastrophe. And after falling to the ground, they will also face a fierce battle!

Sensing that the human alliance was in great trouble, Wang Zongchao's face changed. With a long roar, it was launched with all its might. It is necessary to break free from the shackles of hatred.

"Be annoyed, unwilling, sad, angry...... Then, hate!" Mephisto said in a long voice like an aria. "Witnessing the heavy casualties of your many companions and subordinates, you have every reason to hate, and you have reason to launch the most ferocious counterattack and revenge!"

Inflicting a heavy blow on the human alliance in one fell swoop, Mephisto's key purpose was to arouse Wang Zongchao's hatred. In the eyes of this demon god, it is far more important to control a visitor from another world who has set foot in the "primordial" than to completely annihilate the human alliance. This coincides with his brother Diablo.

But the next moment, Mephisto's voice stopped abruptly.

The Fallen Holy Light that originally filled every space, was as endless as a sea of prisons, and even fully penetrated Wang Zongchao's whole body, suddenly became an undercurrent surging, and countless colorful points of light were born out of thin air, and then rapidly grew by devouring a large number of fallen holy lights, forming countless gem-like energy crystals, illuminating the heavens and the earth, making the originally monotonous and pure holy light world suddenly become vivid.

Immediately afterwards, countless energy crystals with various colored halos, each according to their trajectory, wandered across the sky like the movement of stars, outlining the high-bright light that was dense in the vertical and horizontal directions, and everywhere they went, even the space was distorted and fluctuated violently.

After all, Mephisto didn't know enough about the Chaos Force, thinking that the Fallen Light had been completely corrupted and dissolved by the Chaos Force, but he didn't know that Chaos could also simulate the attributes of the Fallen Light, so as to be the same dust as the light, lurking in the dark, waiting for the opportunity to launch.

In the midst of chaos, there is all that comes into being.

The Chaos Force does not have any attributes, but it can derive energy from countless attributes.

"Mephisto, you want to grasp the mystery of the 'primordial', and now I will let you experience it deeply!" Wang Zongchao's voice did not carry any resentment at all, but only the calm of victory.

As the words fell, countless energy crystals derived from the Holy Light had already changed their tracks and collided with each other.

Boom, boom!

The energy of various attributes hedged against each other, and in the fierce explosion, it stirred up even more violent energy, and thousands of different sounds, or dull, sharp, sonorous, short-lived, or long-lasting, all kinds of shattering and disintegrating sounds sounded at the same time, converging into a vast and boundless, soul-shaking destruction ensemble!

At the most intense place of the collision, the entire void presented a kind of shattered nothingness, but in the void, there seemed to be countless things deriving and changing, and there were rushing roars everywhere, as if the legendary origin of water, fire, and wind, and even time and space were completely chaotic.

Trapped in the void before, the layers of "hatred shackles" were blown apart in the blink of an eye in the chain explosion. The vast amount of ruined energy spread, causing the entire Radiant Realm to be violently turbulent and on the verge of disintegration.

"Really...... Breathtaking!" Mephisto sighed as if he had discovered something, "until now, there is not the slightest hatred in your heart that can be used by me. In this way, your people should be safe and sound. ”

As if to confirm his words, a portal suddenly rose out of thin air before the realm of radiance. Immediately afterward, a magnificent pillar of light so bright that it eclipsed the most dazzling of fallen holy light, and was straight enough to cross the heavens and the earth, was the first to slash out from it, slashing straight towards the realm of radiance.

Under the internal and external attacks, the originally unbreakable glorious realm immediately collapsed. As soon as the source of the Fallen Light was extinguished, the original overwhelming Fallen Light was completely dissipated. All the people of Curast, as well as the dwarven natives and jungle beasts, who had been forcibly controlled by the fallen light of Mephistopheles, suddenly came to their senses, and then fell into another kind of leaderless chaos.

With the combination of the inside and the outside, and the blow that broke through the glorious realm in one fell swoop, many of the master-level warriors of the sharp armor, led by a few legendary figures in the lead, rushed towards the completely unprotected Fort Cuivanke.

The sheer agility and strength of each of them turned into high-speed afterimages, one after the other, like a galloping tiger or a hunting eagle, galloping towards the remaining monsters in Fort Trevank with a wild and unrivaled attitude. The momentum that emanated from them soared into the sky and even formed a whirlpool visible to the naked eye, which wanted to completely smash all the obstacles that stood in the way!

It turned out that the three floating giant ships and the mountain illusion were just bait for the golden cicada to break out of its shell, and at some point, all the humans in the giant boat had been transferred to the Bliss Spirit House, and they were disguised as ordinary cannonballs to penetrate the ground in front of Fort Cui Vanke, waiting for Wang Zongchao to counterattack in one fell swoop.

With Qi Tengyi's current mana, it may not be impossible to load all the human alliance forces into the Elysium Spirit House and transport them from the West Harbor to Fort Trevank across hundreds of miles, but the long-distance flight will inevitably cause a great loss of mana, and it is difficult to maintain the shrinkage volume and various effects of stealth and illusion, and once it is intercepted on the way, there will be no extra means to deal with it. That's why he adopted this strategy of saving consumption and confusing his opponents, and finally succeeded in one fell swoop.

"Beria should be ashamed of his clever disguise and deception before you...... It turns out that you also secretly colluded with Tyrell to get involved, no wonder you have this self-confidence......"

Seeing that the general trend was gone, Mephisto didn't make any unnecessary struggles, just nodded to Wang Zongchao, and then calmly waited for the final moment to come. (To be continued......)
