Chapter 124: Abyss Demon Hermes
Hermes is one of the most common demons in the Land of Chaos, he doesn't know how he was born, he was just an ugly-looking scaly reptile when he was born, and his strength was very weak, and this stage was not enough to be called a demon.
Over the long years, he instinctively avoided danger and devoured the weak, and his strength gradually became stronger, and his body grew larger and larger, and his body grew to a height of more than ten meters, and he gained all kinds of wonderful abilities and could become humanoid.
This threshold is divided in the way of the mainland, which is the sixth order.
There are countless demons in the Land of Chaos, some of them are incomparably powerful, and as the years go on, they are the embodiment of tyranny, called the Demon Lord, Hermes was originally under the command of a Demon Lord.
He didn't have a name himself, but through various ruins, he learned many languages, gave himself many names, and accidentally got a broken sword with the words "Hermes" engraved on the hilt, which he thought was very good, so he used it as his name, which has been used until now.
A demon like Hermes has no status in the Land of Chaos, and it is almost impossible for him to become a demon lord, and he learns that there is another peaceful continent in the world, with countless delicious flesh and blood to devour, and it is the place that all demons yearn for.
Historically, someone used a demonic ritual to summon Hermes's doppelganger, which made him truly appreciate the beauty of this world, and since then, he has been trying to find a way to truly travel to that world.
Countless demons want to come to the New Era Continent, but even the great demon lords have no choice, only the spatial cracks that appear from time to time can try their luck.
If you are lucky, the other end of the space gap is the New Era Continent, and if you are unlucky, it is the Endless Void.
When an unstable spatial gap appeared, Hermes did not hesitate to burrow into it, the spatial passage was full of destruction, his hard scale armor could not support it, and by the time he reached the other end, he was already dying.
Fortunately, there is still a breath left, the demon's vitality is tenacious, as long as he devours enough flesh and blood, he can recover quickly.
He, the demon Hermes, has finally arrived in the New Age Continent!
Hermes smelled flesh and blood, and instinct drove him, and the village was full of weak humans, powerless to resist the demons, and soon all of them were devoured by him.
However, the new continent is not as beautiful as he imagined, there are also powerful individuals in the human race, and when they heard the news, they wanted to kill him, Hermes was too weak to defeat the humans who came to chase and kill, and all the flesh and blood that he finally devoured was in vain, but he finally survived.
Fleeing all the way, looking for an opportunity to devour humans, slowly recovering from his injuries, he heard that there is a place called Sin City that is inaccessible, so he fled to this place that was spurned by the people, so that he could have a few days of peace.
Hermes was extremely cunning due to his weak background, and after coming to Sin City, he did not go on a killing spree, and only devoured one or two people a day, although the recovery from injuries was slow, but it was safer.
He hired humans to be his emissaries, to make deals with the rulers of Sin City, and to refine the humans he killed into puppets and half-demons, all in preparation for his own safety.
When Hermes spotted someone stalking his puppet, he knew that the pursuers were coming again, and maybe they had brought a stronger helper.
He is not strong enough, not when he has a hard time with these humans, he is not afraid of running out of firewood, pretending to be cowardly is Hermes's talent, he tried his best to confuse the public, and finally shifted all his attention to the half-demons under his command, and he could take this opportunity to leave Sin City and find a place to hide.
It was originally well planned, but Hermes didn't expect that why he would still appear here after watching the human assassin leave.
Su Yang always suspected that something was wrong with Tarion, and deliberately left under his nose with a mirror image, and the body always sneaked and hid in the shadows, seeing Tarion's weird smile, Su Yang immediately informed Roland in a private chat that the demon was fake, and it was really here!
The fifth-order advanced task is more important than chasing demons, Roland did not suspect that Su Yang would deceive himself, and immediately abandoned his current opponent and rushed towards Su Yang's side, and Su Yang also took the initiative to attack the real demon at the same time.
Even if he is not the opponent of the fifth-order mini-boss, he can delay a little time and drag it until Roland arrives!
Hermes was surprised by this sneak attack, the black knife stabbed him in the back again, causing more than a thousand points of damage, and was about to repeat the old trick and cry for mercy, Su Yang didn't spare his hand at all, and a set of skills poured into him by cutting his throat and cutting shadows.
"You disguise yourself as a fourth-order sword fighter, and the fourth-order can have so much blood to eat my entire set of skills without dying?" Su Yang had already confirmed his judgment at this time, an ordinary fourth-order NPC had two or three thousand blood, and his two swords and backstabs were more than two thousand, plus a complete set of death mark skills, the overall damage caused was four or five thousand, and the fourth-order knight couldn't bear it.
Suddenly, a thick tail was thrown towards Su Yang, and the human body suddenly grew a crocodile-like tail, Su Yang showed an expression that was indeed so, jumped back two steps to avoid it, and the tail smashed through the snow, splashing the fragments of the bluestone slab.
Hermes knew that he had been recognized, and finally tore off the disguise of his human appearance, opened his mouth and spewed out a foul-smelling gray mist, and the snow was corroded so that he sneered, Su Yang instantly stepped behind Hermes, and the knife slashed at the back of his neck, and the hard scale armor directly bounced Su Yang's hand away, immune to vertigo!
Abyssal Demon Hermes (Injured): Level 55, rare monster.
Su Yang's detection saw the basic information of the demon, he was not a lord-level big boss, but his strength was powerful among rare monsters, and his peak state was comparable to a fourth-order big boss like the Demon Wolf Lord.
System: Target confirmed, assist the Night Tavern investigators in killing the Abyss Demon Hermes!
The demon's tail is a part of their limbs, and it is very flexible to flick it, and after Su Yang found that the hand knife did not work, he used a hook to distance himself, and sure enough, Hermes flicked his tail and slammed it to the ground, which was even more fierce than before.
He grew bigger and bigger, and finally became more than five meters tall, his body was a little rickety, like a standing reptile, his eyes were glowing with blood, and his breath was filled with a poisonous gray mist, and he was the ugliest demon Su Yang had ever seen.
The Tavern of the Night was codenamed "The Grey Serpent" according to its physical signs, and Hermes was not happy with this title, he had great ideals in his heart, and he hoped that one day, he would be called "Hermes, the Great Demon Lord"!
"The lights are on, I'm here."
Roland carried the dark realm to descend, and the surroundings were suddenly plunged into darkness, countless dark fluctuation balls condensed in the field, Roland's right hand was empty, and all the fluctuation balls poured towards Hermes!
