Chapter 179: What is Tanabata? Bah! I want to update!
"Oh, no, no, no, Lord of the Desolate Soul!" Roy bowed slightly and said, "I think you must have misunderstood, the task of hunting down the Seven Deadly Sins was given to me by the Apocalypse Knight's Fury, not that I deliberately wanted to cause trouble, you should have also heard of the furious temper and character, in the face of the Apocalypse Knight, how dare I, a high-ranking demon, refuse?" ”
Roy lowered his head, but at this moment, his eyes flashed with the cunning that a demon should have.
Roy wasn't quite sure of the Lord of the Desolate Soul's intentions, but listening to his tone, it felt a little like he had come to Xingshi to ask about his guilt.
Roy used the words of the void power from the World of Warcraft to draw the attention of the furious, and the fury went to investigate what was going on with the fallen forces of this world, leaving the mission of the seven deadly sins alone, which was bound to attract the wrath of the Scorching Council, but the stinky temper of the Froth was not easy to submit, and if the Scorching Council insisted on punishing her, then it was likely to make the Fury go down the path of breaking with them.
This promoter should be very much in line with the intentions of the two masterminds behind the scenes, the demon king Samael and the mad queen Lilith, and Roy did this to leave a good impression on Samael's side.
There's no way, the demon king who currently appears in this world is Samael and the Destroyer, if the Destroyer guy is not unexpected, he will definitely be killed by the Apocalypse Knight, and there is no future with him, on the contrary, the chess game directed by Samael and Lilith has shown unfathomable wisdom, even if Roy is now acting alone in a neutral attitude, but in essence, he is still on Samael's side.
However, it is important to note that changing the original plan of Fury will definitely hurt the interests of some people, who may have intended to use Fury as a pawn as well.
The Scorching Council must be the one who has been hurt by the interests, and if you are not mistaken, the Lord of the Desolate Soul in front of you may also be one of them.
Therefore, in the face of this kind of questioning, Roy simply didn't admit it, and pushed it all on the head of the fury, anyway, it is estimated that the Lord of the Desolate Soul will not be able to confront him......
Of course, this kind of sophistry may have the possibility of angering the Lord of the Desolate Soul, in the face of a demon lord, Roy and Juliel have no chance of winning, so while he said this, he secretly prepared to launch his [Teleportation] skill, as long as he saw that the Lord of the Desolate Soul had the slightest possibility of making a move, he would not hesitate to return to the abyss world with Juliel, and let the fat tiger stay in the abyss to prevent this situation.
However, to Roy's surprise, the Lord of the Desolate Soul did not show the slightest sign of anger after listening to Roy's defense, and then suddenly sighed slightly: "It seems that I am really old, you are a high-ranking demon, you dare to participate in this chess game, use fury as a pawn, and pursue your own interests, while I can only hide in another space and pin my hope on others......"
"......" Roy looked at him with some confusion, not knowing why he had come up with this exclamation, but he didn't agree with what the Lord of the Desolate Soul said, he didn't think he was much of a chess player.
In fact, if Roy's intervention caused the plot to fork in the road, the Lord of the Desolate Soul would also find the wrath of the Apocalypse Knight, and then he would use the rage to let the fury discover the truth that she was deceived by the Scorched Council step by step, so as to counter the rage.
In other words, the ultimate goal of the Lord of the Desolate Soul is actually to point at the Scorching Council!
In his opinion, in the hundreds of millions of years, the Scorching Council has become corrupt, and the Scorching Council used the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to suppress various races in order to maintain the so-called balance, which was understandable, but the point is that the more you go to the back, this "maintenance of balance" begins to turn sour, when you realize that maintaining balance is just an excuse, and the real purpose of the Scorching Council is only to maintain their rule and authority, This is a departure from the original purpose of the Scorching Council.
The Lord of the Desolate Souls believes that the current Scorching Council has actually been corrupted and degenerated, so he also begins to oppose the Scorching Council.
In the same way, there are many people who are dissatisfied with the Scorched Council, angels, demons, lords of the desolate souls, and even some ancient races...... Perhaps the Council itself did not realize that their use of the might of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to suppress the various races was nothing more than a constant accumulation of resentment among these races.
Now, the battle of the Doomsday Judgment set off by angels and demons is an opportunity for all those who stand on the opposite side of the Scorching Council to jump out and contribute to the flames behind the scenes.
To dismantle the Scorching Council, you must first cut off their limbs, and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse are their limbs......
Originally, when the fury descended on the human realm, the Lord of the Desolate Soul had his eyes on the Fury, but unexpectedly, Roy appeared in front of the Fury first, and let the Fury drop the task and leave, which made the original plan of the Lord of the Desolate Soul not be implemented.
Naturally, the eyes of the Lord of the Desolate Soul were focused on Roy.
He was very curious, what did Roy, the high-ranking frost demon, want to do, you know, although the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse have always remained neutral, but in essence, their chances of scaring demons are much higher than the chances of scaring angels, but Roy not only did not fight with Fury, but let Fury throw all his tasks to him, which is indeed a bit incredible.
During this period of observation, he found that Roy, a demon, has a strength far beyond that of ordinary high-ranking demons, not to mention, and is also very smart, he actually knows how to use human weapons to fight.
Powerful, smart enough, and cunning enough! Although he put the blame on Fury, the Lord of the Desolate Soul intuitively realized that this demon might have the same purpose for the Knights of the Apocalypse......
But...... The Lord of the Desolate Soul looked Roy up and down, and whispered to himself, "Not enough, not enough, not enough strength......"
His words were very vague, so Roy couldn't hear them too clearly, he just thought that this old man was chattering, it couldn't be because he was too old and a little demented, right? So I immediately thought about how to find an excuse to leave here and stop entangled with this demonic old man.
However, before he could come up with an excuse, the Lord of the Desolate Soul pointed to the huge floating objects in the air in the distance and said, "Did you just want to go there?" ”
"yes!" Roy nodded, thinking, just interrupted by your presence.
Juliel took over from the side and said, "Your Excellency Lord of the Desolate Souls, you said before that that we had better not go, what do you mean by that?" ”
"There's the Destroyer Tower!" The Lord of the Desolate Souls opened his mouth and explained, "That is the home he ordered the demons to build for him, and he wants to build a demon king city there, and then completely rule the whole world, whether it is demons or angels, they will all succumb to his terror...... Of course, he is now attacking the Pure White City, but because the Forger Clan and some people from ancient races have also appeared in this human realm, it may not be long before he returns, if you are not his subordinates, then it is best not to throw yourself into the net. ”
"Really, Destroyer Tower?" Roy looked thoughtfully at the huge structures floating high in the air, no wonder he could see some radiation sources flying there, thinking that they were demons building towers, right?
However, if it was the Destroyer's Tower, was it Samael's Sealed Land, not far from the Tower? The Destroyer can't kill Samael, he can only seal him, and he should also be afraid that Samael will bring trouble to him after he gets out of trouble, so wouldn't it be better to build his residence near the sealed place?
Of course, Roy wasn't sure, so you can ask Juliel later, and see if the direction of the tower is near the direction of the previous battle between Samael and the Destroyer......
"But ......" At this time, the Lord of the Desolate Souls, who was still persuading Roy and Juliel not to go to the Tower, suddenly changed his words and said: "Just because you can't get close to the Tower doesn't mean you can't go near the Tower, there is a demon called Abrasis nearby, he is the Overseer of the Tower of the Destroyer, the demon Osiris, if you can find Abrasis and kill him, then I can give you a special reward!" ”
"Oh? What kind of reward is it? Roy asked curiously.
"Strength! A self-inflicted and self-inflicted strength! The Lord of the Desolate Soul said: "Although you are much stronger than the average high-ranking demon, but you are still just a high-ranking demon, in this game, your strength is still too weak, if you are not careful, you may be crushed, and if you have this part of the power that I reward you, you can reach the height of the demon lord in a short period of time, even if this power is only one-time, but it can also make you experience what kind of existence the demon lord is, which is very beneficial for you to impact the level of the demon lord in the future!" ”
"Oh, really?" Roy's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise.
"Kill Abrasis and bring him back to me, and I will give you this power!" The Lord of the Desolate Soul.
"Okay, deal!" Roy was very dry.
The Lord of the Desolate Soul was satisfied, and a magic array appeared under his feet, sinking into it and returning.
After he left, Juliel asked Roy, "Are you really going to the Tower?" ”
However, what she didn't expect was that Roy spat on the ground and said, "the fart!" Let's go to the Seven Deadly Sins! ”
Juliel was stunned: "That...... Then you made a deal with him just now? ”
"That's just hanging around him, let him leave quickly!" Roy sneered and said, "You think that Abrasis is so easy to kill?" If Abrasis is something we can deal with, then why doesn't the Lord of the Desolate Soul take matters into his own hands? Listen to me, and ignore this old fellow! ”
"That'...... So what if he finds us again? Juliel couldn't turn a corner.
"Afraid of what? We just said we'd kill Abracis, but we didn't say when! Roy stretched out his finger and poked Juliel's head and said, "Besides, he doesn't even have a demon contract, he has empty white teeth, he can control when we go?" ”
When she came to her senses, Juliel's gaze changed when she looked at Roy, and she became a ...... Starry Eyes!
She said to Roy with a look of adoration, "Osiris, you are so treacherous! ”
Well, there's nothing wrong with that, in the abyss world, treachery is the best compliment to a demon......
Juliel felt that she was falling more and more into Roy's charm, and she couldn't help herself......
