Chapter 45: Encounters
"The color of the sky is really weird. Raven sat on a rock and looked up at the sky and said, "I didn't expect the night of hell to be like this." ”
"It's rare to have time to take a break, and I don't know where we're going now. Ye Xiang looked around with a wary gaze.
"Without a map, it looks like we're going to have to rely on our own senses. ”
"I can really feel a very powerful force, I don't know if Shore is where that force is, and now there is no better way but to act like this. ”
As soon as Raven wanted to answer, several black shadows suddenly burst out from behind them, Ye Xiang and Raven reacted in an instant, they avoided the attack of the black shadows and were ready to fight back at the same moment.
"Found it. The leading demon looked at the two people in front of him and smiled, "Then there is no need to say anything more, human, your time of death has come!"
"Looks like they want to fight us. Ye Xiang said to Raven, "How about it, Raven, it's enough to rest, right?"
"It's been prepared for a long time. Raven said, "It's just that I'm bored right now, let's see what they're capable of!"
The battle ended very quickly, these demons were obviously not Ye Xiang and Raven's opponents, it was only a few rounds of fighting, all the demons fell to the ground, and after confirming that none of the demons escaped, Ye Xiang and Raven breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's not as good as we thought it would be. Raven said, "I thought they could at least do two more tricks with us." ”
"These are just demons. Ye Xiang inspected the corpse and said, "At best, they are just the most ordinary soldiers in hell, and according to this standard, the strength they show can be understood." ”
"But it's not safe here. Raven glanced at the corpses of the demons around him and said, "This must be just one of their search teams, since they have already arrived here, it means that the other troops will be coming soon." ”
"That's true. Ye Xiang agreed with Raven's opinion, "It seems that tonight's rest will end here, and we have to travel overnight." ”
The two packed their bags and set off again, and only ten minutes after they left, the demon's forces arrived quickly, just as Raven had just said.
"It's unimaginable that the search team has been wiped out!" said the demon who had examined the corpse with a look of disbelief.
"It's not a big deal, they killed Beelzebub's guys, and they can't be treated as ordinary humans, but judging by the bloodstains on the scene, they shouldn't have gone far. The demon who appeared to be the leader of this army spoke.
"Master Pate, what are we going to do next?"
"Keep tracking them, we are much more familiar with the environment here, and if we keep chasing them, then we should be able to intercept them in the middle of the road soon. Pate replied, but his eyes were hollow.
"My lord, there is something my subordinate wants to say to you. A demon standing beside Pate finally couldn't help but speak.
"If there's anything you want to say, just say it. ”
"We should go and join them now, right?" and your subordinates really don't understand why you disobey the order, but your subordinates really don't understand?"
The question immediately caused a commotion in the crowd, and it seemed that he was not the only one who was puzzled by Pate's behavior, and Pate just stared at the demon who asked the question, until the discussion stopped for a while, and then finally spoke again.
"You're questioning me, aren't you?" said Pate's words without any warmth.
"My subordinates just want you to give us an answer. The demon who had just asked hurriedly said, "I didn't mean to question you!"
"My order is absolute. Pate leaned closer to the demon in front of him, "You are not qualified to question me, if you do that, then you will only end up thinking of you!"
As soon as Pate's voice fell, he directly pierced the chest of the demon in front of him with one hand, and the blood stained Pate's hand through the demon's body, and the demon's body that was suddenly attacked twitched slightly, and then fell to the ground with a bang under the gaze of other demons.
"Did you see them all?" Pate glanced at his men in turn, and the gaze made everyone shudder.
"The subordinate understood. After a moment of silence, the rest of the demons all replied in unison, their voices tinged with a chill.
"That's the right thing. Pee nodded and said, "Then act now as I order, go after the fleeing humans, and annihilate them all for me!"
"Yes!" Alegus gave the order, and the demon immediately took action, and Pate put his finger to the position of his temple, and at the same time, the nameless man far under Hagrid received all the information.
"That's right. The Nameless Man muttered to himself, "Then it should be time to send them, but before that I need to tell Mammon." ”
Mammon, who was walking somewhere, suddenly stopped his steps, looked around warily, and made sure that there was no one else before speaking.
"Is there something going on when you come to me at this time?"
"The puppet I released has found the remaining two members of Team X, and now Pate, who I control, is leading a small force chasing them, but I don't think he alone is a match for those two, so I want them to be dispatched. ”
Mammon knew of course who the Nameless Man was referring to, and he frowned and thought for a while, before finally making a decision.
"Alright, I'll let them go. "But remember not to surprise me, for they are the ones I have used to deal with Mephistopheles, and to promise me that they will be wiped out as much as possible." ”
"Don't worry, as long as the two of them go out, those humans won't be able to win at all, let alone have any accidents. ”
"That being said, no one could have imagined that Beelzebub would lose to them until then, so it's better to be careful, you can manipulate Pat to get to the bottom of those two humans thoroughly, and then let the two of them act. ”
"Then do as you say. The Nameless Man agreed to Mammon's course of action.
"Well, I've got a few things to deal with now, so you'll be in charge of Hell until I contact you next time, but don't let anything go wrong with me. ”
"Absolutely not. The Nameless Man replied, "I promise I'll take care of everything, and the most important thing now is to deal with those two humans first, so I'll prioritize this matter for now." ”
"I'll leave it all to you. Mammon cut off the communication.
The nameless man on the other side stood up very leisurely, and he walked straight into a room, and now it was finally their turn to send them.
"They caught up. Ye Xiang said to Raven, "I can feel their breath, it should be said that they have no intention of hiding at all, it looks like we have to prepare for battle." ”
"Come on, then. Raven suddenly stopped, "No matter how many comes, we'll be waiting here." ”
"That's right. Ye Xiang pulled out the "dawn" behind him, "We have declared war on the entire hell, how can we be afraid of them, then use this place as a battlefield." ”
As he spoke, Pate had already led the troops to the two of them, and at least hundreds of people surrounded the two of them, while Pate, the leader of the team, walked in front of them unhurriedly.
"Looks like you're going to be their leader. Ye Xiang looked at Pate and smiled.
"That's right, I'm one of the Thirteen Lords of Hell, 'Blood Skeleton Demon' Pate, and I'm here to take the lives of both of you, and this will be the tomb where you will be buried. ”
I've heard this kind of thing many times. Ye Xiang waved his hand indifferently, "Don't talk too much, demon, and never underestimate us as human beings." ”
"I still know what you're capable of. Pate smiled, "After all, Beelzebub died at your hands, and you also fought against Master Mephistopheles, so I naturally can't underestimate you, but that doesn't mean you will definitely win!"
What's going on?Ye Xiang looked at Pat in front of him and had doubts in his heart, the power of the soul seal actually didn't sense his soul, this kind of thing couldn't happen at all, could it be that this guy in front of him didn't have a soul at all?
He seemed to have noticed that Ye Xiang, who was manipulating Pate, felt the strangeness of Ye Xiang's gaze. It's no wonder, after all, the man in front of me is the equivalent of the military division in Team X, how could his incomparably sharp insight not be perceived?
I didn't feel any emotional fluctuations in those eyes, and something was really wrong. Ye Xiang clenched the "dawn" in his hand, yes, there is indeed a situation that may allow people without souls to still move, but is that situation really possible?
"Raven, leave the one in front of you named Pate to me to solve. Ye Xiang shouted to Raven, "The other demons will ask you!"
"Just give it to me, vice-captain. Raven smiled slightly, "I'm still worried that I didn't have enough fun just now, you have to be careful, vice captain, although I can't tell, but the guy you are going to fight makes me feel very uncomfortable." ”
Raven, you also feel it, Ye Xiang thought in his heart, it should be said that the demon in front of him who called himself Pate was like a corpse, and that uncomfortable feeling should be the breath of death and corruption, but this is hell after all, and the truth has to be explored by yourself.
"Then there's no need to talk nonsense. Pate waved to Ye Xiang provocatively, "Give me all the real skills together!"
"As you wish. Ye Xiang stared at Pate in front of him, "I also have some things I want to figure out, so please take out all your skills, only then will the truth of the matter completely surface, isn't it?"
