Chapter 504: Plan B
"Lilith is dead?!" The three eye-like horizontal lines on Manduth's forehead were almost cracking, and the disturbing dark red of these tiny swollen eyes terrified the low-level demons in charge of reporting the news.
After a few seconds of silence, the Demon King angrily lifted it by the neck and slammed it against the wide floor-to-ceiling window. The latter screamed and smashed through the bulletproof glass, and with the shards of glass falling like rain, fell from a height of five hundred meters into the street below. But at least it escaped being torn apart on the spot.
Shuji Tsushima, who was in charge of intelligence gathering, did not report the news himself, but instead found an unlucky guy to take charge of the acquisition meeting that was supposed to be presided over by Mandus - this cunning move made the furious Mandus want to use his real name to erase its existence in an instant, but reason still stopped him, and the formalities required to replace a high-ranking demon position were so troublesome that he didn't want to do it a second time.
He was furious right now and wanted to find something to kill. If only that rebellious son were in front of him right now. He would torture him to death by all the seven hundred and twenty-one methods he knew, splitting the bastard's soul into seven hundred and twenty-one pieces, and inflicting the most brutal punishment on earth and in hell...... Not only was he going to kill him, but everyone he knew, including every shop that sold him liquor, every prostitute he ever worked with, even the salesman who handed him hamburgers and friesβthe entire city he lived in would be reduced to powder in the roar of the Demon King.
Lilith is the demon who has been with him the longest, and after her death, even demons without a conscience will feel pain. The pain of being deprived of one's property. The pain of being trampled on your dignity as a strong man. He didn't love the succubus, but she was his possession. She will even give birth to her own future heirs, who will be an integral part of his grand plans. And now, like a dog, she died in a filthy underground club - he was angry, very, very angry.
The crimson gates of hell still swirled eternally, and he stood in front of them, the majestic power of hell constantly enriching his body and maintaining the vitality of his mortal body.
He was so angry that he didn't notice that something was flying towards his office. Until a bright red figure crossed the corner of his eye, Mandus quickly turned. Pupils dilated slightly.
A missile with atomic energy markings was slamming into his silver sack tower at supersonic speed, and a red figure stood above the missile, slowly drawing the sword behind it. Strange silver hair, a red trench coat, and a pair of black and white spears hanging from his waist, as well as the familiar fluctuations of magic on his body that made his teeth itch......
"Danteββ!!!
In an instant, a power as thick as a roaring ocean emanated from the Demon King's body. Even Su Jing and his party, who were more than a dozen floors down, felt a strong sense of oppression. The crimson world of Hell spread out in an instant, and in another plane, the Silver Bag Tower instantly twisted into a hell fortress. The angelic wings are covered in sludge and corroded, and the strange spatial structure spreads all over the block.
The nuclear warhead and Dante were pulled into the borders of hell in an instant, and the power of Mandus wrapped them in layers, two seconds later. The sudden eruption of small sun-like light and heat swelled the demon's power, and the three criss-crossing sword qi instantly pierced through the black sludge and flew towards Mandus, who was standing in place. The Demon King still retains his human form at the moment. It's just that there are three more eyes on the forehead.
"Seed!" Mandus roared and completely ignored the extremely sharp sword aura, which instantly tore through his body. But the next moment, it was restored unscathed. The unabated sword qi pierced through the wall behind him, piercing the entire one hundred and sixty-sixth floor. The high-rise of the Silver Bag Tower in reality also emitted a corresponding explosion. The sharp sword qi slashed through the reinforced concrete soil and the human body as if tearing through a layer of newspaper, and disappeared into the distant clouds after piercing through seven or eight layers of walls in a row.
"What's going on?"
Across the dozen floors, you can still hear the loud noise from above and the tremor of the building, and Shuji Tsushima, who was sitting across the negotiation table, changed his face slightly, he stood up with a frown, and said in a low voice: "The negotiation is temporarily suspended, please allow me to leave for a while." β
"Probably...... It's not that simple. The male butler with long hair and ponytail stepped forward, and a clattering sound sounded, and Shuji Tsushima instantly retreated at high speed, while all the civil servants around him turned into condensed ice sculptures, "There may be some personal matters that I would like you to ask for your assistance with." β
"Virgil, the plan has changed, let's go straight to it. Dante will assist you. The girl in the striped suit said into the Bluetooth microphone at the neckline.
"Who are you?" Shuji Tsushima was not too flustered, as a high-level demon who was promoted, he was confident that he would get out of these troubles in front of him, as long as he entered the border of hell and entered his home turf, these mortals with some natural powers would be slaughtered by themselves. What he was curious about was their identity, the young demon on the next gram? Or a surrogate of heaven?
ββ¦β¦ Conqueror. If you summarize a little. The pony-tailed man snapped his fingers, and more than a dozen ice sculptures of ice sculptures appeared with cobweb-like cracks, and then scattered into countless frozen fragments of flesh one after another.
"By the way, even if I go to hell, I can crush you with one finger." The tall girl with the figure of a devil unconsciously circled around his back, and a dagger that exuded a strange aura lay across his neck, "Reminder, I've eaten more demons than you've ever seen, it's not a figure of speech, it's a count." β
"Remind me of this the next time you kiss." The pony-tailed man said with a smile.
"Brother, shut up first." The dagger across his neck briefly left for a moment, swung twice at the ponytail, and then re-attached.
ββ¦β¦ Well, what do you want? Shuji Tsushima raised his hands and surrendered with a wry smile.
"We want you." The short-haired girl in the striped suit put on a monocle and looked at him for a moment, "According to our technical investigation, you are currently the big man of the Demon Group, and apart from Mandus and Lilith, you are the number three person. Resist the lack of the previous electronic demon. β
ββ¦β¦ Did you kill my ex? "Shuji Tsushima remains unchanged in his posture of surrender," he said. Thank you very much. However, it is a good move to put the beak on the lower side and take out Bob. But it's not that smart to take out Lilith. She has no ambitions and is very controlling. There's no point in killing her other than to anger my boss. β
"Wait, what do you say? Lilith was killed? The short-haired girl frowned, she whispered a few words to someone through the microphone, and her face was cloudy. Shuji Tsushima felt the dagger's strength increase a little, and the sharp edge had already sunk into his epidermis, and the blood he oozing was swallowed by the dagger without a drop. Using the wound as a bridge, this dagger even tried to suck his life -
"Her underground club was attacked by some kind of beast, and from the on-site exploration, it was the demon fetus inside her that sucked her power dry. Then he slaughtered more than 100 demons and humansβa thing I know. The demon, who was still holding his hands aloft, poured out the information as quickly as he could, "But this news has not been passed on to the boss yet, and I want to wait until he digests the news of his mistress's death before presenting him with a detailed analysis report." β
"Look at it this way...... Your importance has risen rapidly. The woman in the striped suit stood up, walked up to him, and looked at him with the same eyes, "Let's do a logical reasoning." If we need a new puppet who can master this demon army after taking out Manduth, who do you think would be a better fit? β
"If you succeed, I will present your real name to you." Shuji Tsushima grabbed the dagger with two fingers. Gently push away, then bend down and bow deeply to the girl in front of you.
"It's a pleasure to work with."
In the friction sound of Su Luo's dagger being unsheathed, Lu Mengyao patted his head.
ββββββ
"Damn ......"
Virgil's life story was not rich enough for him to understand that "plans always change". Dante's name caused him to rush straight out of the storage room on the one hundred and sixty-fifth floor, the Enma knife already hanging from his waist.
"You only get one chance, Mandus is on the border of hell. Dante will get his attention for you. If you fail this time, then the plan will be over after he reacts. Michelangelo, who remained in absolute seclusion, followed him unhurriedly. Virgil's high-speed run was like a leisurely walk for him, "I don't have a lot of frontal combat. So I can only provide you with some basic support. β
"Got it!"
The battle at the top had attracted a large number of demons, and in the borders of hell, a large number of low-level shadows grazed Virgil's side, and it was just a talisman that allowed him to shuttle freely among the demons.
The staircase to the top floor was instantaneous, and the two of them quickly skimmed by, and Manduth's office was in front of them. Virgil took a steady breath, the walls of this level were still being destroyed, as if two invisible forces were fighting here, and he took a step forward and entered the border of hell.
The power of the Demon King was so strong that it forcibly distorted the space, and the rune paper on Virgil's chest began to burn violently.
"It can't feel you until it burns out!" Michelangelo's voice became rapid.
Virgil stood in place, just a few meters in front of him, Dante was fighting against Mandus, the completely demonized Dante had the figure of the legendary demon Sparta, an illusion of a sheep's horn demon appeared on his body, and his magic power increased dozens of times. But this violent power is in the face of the opponent's endless power like the sea...... Nothing works.
"Damn." Michelangelo cursed in a low voice.
The reason why the building has not collapsed due to the fierce battle between the two is because Mandus has completely controlled the situation. With the coercion of infinite magic alone, Dante's strength was weakened to the point that he could barely stand up, and could only half-kneel in front of him with difficulty.
"I'm going to dig out your heart. Like I slaughtered your bitch mom......" The triumphant Three-Eyed Demon stretched out his claws and sliced through the leather coat and ribcage of the silver-haired man's chest, gripping his pounding heart.
"Mandus ββ!!!"
In the next second, Virgil's Enma knife was unsheathed, and his skill of high-speed teleportation could even be compared to Michelangelo's high-speed movement. The distorted space was cut through by two silver sword lights, and the Iai of Japanese kendo was the bone, and it was emitted with the wild power of a demon and an angel mixture. Virgil opened the limit of his power in an instant, and also entered the state of demonization, and the violently burning magic formed a clone, and he used the same power as him.
The ultra-high-speed double slash with multiple powers succeeded in severing the Demon King's arm, and the blue figure instantly swept by, rescuing Dante from the Demon King's claws.
The gates of hell were three meters behind Mandus, but Virgil's heart was sinking as he held Dante, as he had already judged the probability of success of his next plan.
It's zero.
But he did not regret the choice he made. Without saying a word, Dante stood up again, the two side by side, the light of rebellion and Enma illuminating the gloomy and chaotic borders of hell, red flames and blue flames, the resonant resonance between swords and swords drowned out the screams of ghosts and demons.
"Ah...... The Spartan puppies had two ......" Mandus laughed with fangs out as his human form faded into the form of a swirl of magic, "thanks to Hell, I can get double the pleasure of torturing you." β
Without communicating, the red and blue demons rushed forward at the same time, and the sword of rebellion and the demon sword slashed towards the demon king from both directions. The roaring mana formed a whirlpool of surging currents that broke through Manduth's dark blockade.
In the midst of a gloomy roar, the top floor of the Silver Bag Tower was lifted from the inside by an invisible shock wave, and the clouds in the sky were torn apart by the invisible rolling light flames, forming staggered cracks that spread for several kilometers, but the power belonging to the King of Hell did not disappear, but became more turbulent.
"It's too weak! You are as weak as two pigs compared to your father! β
In the midst of the ruins, Mandus's majestic body stood proudly, holding the neck of his Majin brother one by one, and the Three-Eyed Demon sighed with regret, "If you can't bring me more enjoyment, you will die." β
As his giant palm tightened, the whites of Dante and Virgil's eyes gradually rolled up. It's not just physical suffocation, but the power of the Demon King is invading their bodies, erasing the traces of their existence and annihilating their existence from the root.
As his consciousness blurred, Virgil knew that he was about to fall into the abyss of death. Several people came to his mind, and then his own life full of revenge. At least in the end, he died at the last step of revenge, with his blood brother.
In his final dying, he felt as if he was hallucinating.
"Hey."
A young girl stood behind Mandus, tall with rolled sleeves and a large sword and a Japanese sword in her hands.
Is that...... Rebellion and Enma? Virgil confirmed, and even now his right hand was holding his father's relic tightly.
Mandus's expression seemed even more incredulous than his.
"Thank you for your cooperation." The girl inserted both blades into the crimson swirling vortex at the same time, "It's not the original match in this world, but it should work." β
It worked.
Virgil's last consciousness was that he had been thrown far away by Mandus, floating in the sky, followed by gravity, falling, heavy impact. (To be continued......)
