Chapter 324: Gabriel's Invitation
If the coldest places on earth are the North and South Poles, the coldest place in the scorching magma-like hell is the Stygian Sea.
The bitter cold in the Stygian Sea is not like the icebergs in the North and South Poles, blowing a bone-chilling wind that makes people shiver. And the cold in the Stygian Sea is the cold that can freeze the soul. The boundless Stygian Sea, where there are no other creatures except Menma, who was punished by the fallen angel Lucifer. Because ordinary souls, even if they stay in the Stygian Sea for a second, they will be instantly frozen into ice palms. The origin of the Styx, even if Lucifer, the demon god of hell, is not cleared, only that the Styx Sea has existed since the day hell was born.
The boundless Stygian Sea reveals the vastness and dead silence. Countless humanoid ice statues floated on the sea, and these ice statues were frozen by the souls that had fallen into the Stygian Sea, as if countless humanoid ice sculptures were floating on the sea, with angry eyes and hideous faces, and desperate cries were frozen on the face of this humanoid ice sculpture. Occasionally, the ice pads floating in the sea collide together, break into pieces, and melt into the Stygian Sea. This represents the complete annihilation of a soul. Some of the ice pads collide and squeeze to form icebergs floating on the surface of the sea, and if you look closely, you will see that the edges and corners of these icebergs are more like twisted limbs.
A skinny skeleton wrapped in a human skin, curled up, shivering on an iceberg. The pupils were not visible in the sunken eye sockets, and the fingers like chicken claws were deeply clasped into the ice, and the mouth let out a hissing and lung-splitting roar and curse, "Ahh!!h Let me out!!! Lucifer!!! I am your son! Menma !! Let me out....one day, I must make the world my territory! One day, I will turn the world into my blood type paradise!!! ”
Menma's roar echoed across the endless Stygian Sea, seeming to breathe life into the dead silence. Trembling, Menma felt a faint warm current flow through her body, and her hideous expression stretched a lot, this warm current came from the soul that Posessa brought to herself. It's weak, but it's better than nothing. It seems that the half-blood demon of Posessa is still somewhat useful. Twenty-nine souls have been sent in this time. In vain, he let his henchmen hold half of his fingernails to give him the power of the demon god, and the silver coin condensed by that fingernail is the medium to transmit the soul.
"Hehehehe... Is a naughty child punished and confined by his parents? What a pity! ”
A voice that looked like a man and a woman echoed in the dark sea.
Hearing this voice, Menma's heart was shocked, and he roared angrily, "Who! Dare to laugh at the great demon god Menma!! Get the hell out of here! ”
"Oh... It turns out that the one trapped here is the great demon god His Royal Highness Menma... Hahahaha... It's really disrespectful," the male-female voice bit the word 'great' very hard. It seems to be a satire on Menma, who is trapped in the Stygian Sea.
Menma stood up angrily. A crimson flame ignited in the deep-set eye sockets, and the power of the demon god slowly erupted. In this dark dark sea, the magic power can only be filled by the soul sent by Posesha, and if it is consumed too much, it will not be replenished at all. And the human soul can be regarded as an excellent tonic for demons, not to mention replenishing their own magic power, it can also make demons more powerful, in the world of hell. The distribution of souls is in the hands of those powerful demons, and ordinary small demons can only share the scraps.
Why the fallen angel Lucifer to John. Konstantin's soul is particularly favored? Because back then, the fallen angel Lucifer was trying to feast on John. Constantine's soul, an inexplicable force snatched Lucifer's delicacies from his mouth, making John. Konstantin returned to the world. And this power, as a former angel, Lucifer is naturally clear. It was the power of God, the damned old man who was like a mountain on his head.
This kind of ending that makes the most hated person snatch away the food that takes him to his mouth. Naturally it was Lucifer vs. John. Konstantin had a soft spot.
Just as Menma was trying to tear apart the man who dared to laugh at him, a hurricane blew over the Stygian Sea of 'Huhuhu'....... A winged figure slowly landed in front of Menma.
The neutral appearance can not distinguish between men and women, with curly blonde hair casually on her shoulders, and a pair of white wings stretched out behind her back.
Seeing the faces of the people who came, Menma was surprised; "Gabriel?"
Heaven and hell. That was the sworn enemy of the beginning of the Book of Genesis, and the game between God and Satan lasted for I don't know how many centuries, maybe it started when Menma, the demon god, was born, and Gabriel, the archangel, was like Lucifer back then. See such a being in the deepest part of the hell of the Stygian Sea. How can Menma not be surprised.
"Hehehe, naughty little guy! It's not nice to be in this place, right? As he spoke, Gabriel looked at the vast and dead Stygian Sea as if in remembrance. In the original battle between hell and heaven, Gabriel led a group of angels to attack here. But that war, because of the intervention of God and Satan, the two bigwigs, had to be stopped in the end. But in the Stygian Sea, many former comrades-in-arms have fallen.
"What do you want to do!" Menma asked in a deep voice, the person in front of him, Menma himself knows, he has the same strength as his father, although he is arrogant, but he is definitely not the opponent of the other party, and just looking at the other party's ability to silently dive into the deepest part of hell, it can be seen how strong Gabriel's strength is.
"Me? I want to get you out! Let you be free again! Let you fulfill your wishes. Turn the world into your bloody paradise. Gabriel said calmly. It was as if he were saying something innocuous again.
Menma looked at Gabriel in disbelief, the barriers in the world are not so easy to break, whether in heaven or hell, in addition to a few demon gods, a demon god like himself who has been acquired cannot break the barrier of the world at all, otherwise he would not have exhausted his mind to obtain the body of the 'prophet' in order to pass through the barrier of the world. And the characters who can walk in heaven, hell, and the world at will, which one is not an ancient demon or god? And the person in front of him happens to be one of those few people.
"What is your purpose!" Menma asked in a deep voice.
"The purpose? Say it and you won't understand! Just know that I can help you fulfill your wishes. Gabriel said, waving his hand.
Menma frowned and weighed it, if he relied on his own ability, let alone go to the human world, even if he wanted to get out of the Stygian Sea now, it would be difficult. Not knowing how long his damn father wanted to trap himself here, Menma gritted her teeth and said, "Say it! What should I do? ”
"If you want to get out, or to rule the world, you need two things! The first thing you may have heard of is the 'Spear of Destiny'! Gabriel said.
I thought that Gabriel could help him get out, but I didn't expect it to come out of his mouth. It's actually the 'Spear of Destiny'.
'Are you kidding me?' Spear of Destiny'? Prophets appear at least once in hundreds of years! 'Spear of Destiny'? Hum! Why don't you say that God's beard is better? At least I know I'll be able to get him there! Menma said dismissively.
The 'Spear of Destiny' is a spear used by the soldier who stabbed Jesus to death, Longinus, and it is precisely because it is stained with the blood of Jesus that it is called a weapon to kill gods. This weapon, which had hurt Jesus, disappeared after Jesus was born again. It can be said that even Menma, the acquired demon god, has only heard the legend of the 'Spear of Destiny'.
Gabriel ignored Menmana's sarcastic words and said lightly, "In addition to the 'Spear of Destiny', you need a medium!" A spiritually powerful human being acts as a mother to help you get out of hell. Of course. It takes a little bit of something on you to get the project done. With that, Gabriel stared at the thin skeleton in front of him.
Menma saw that Gabriel was not annoyed by his sarcasm of God, but stared at him intently, and being stared at by Gabriel, a strong man whose strength was comparable to his father, made Menma's heart furious. "Is this damn guy really going to get me out? Otherwise, Gabriel wouldn't be bored enough to come to the Styx and laugh at me, would he? Menma said darkly.
"Do you have a way to get the Spear of Destiny?" Menma asked softly.
Gabriel smiled and said nothing, just looked at Menma coldly.
Seeing Gabriel's expression, Menma was even more sure that the other party knew the whereabouts of the 'Spear of Destiny'. He gritted his teeth and said, "Say it!" What do you want! ”
"Hehehe, smart kids are just pleasing. I want your heart! Your filthy heart can bend over the Spear of Destiny! When your heart beats again. It is your chance to escape the Styx. As for the Mother that can carry you to the world, you have to solve it yourself! Gabriel laughed.
Menma was clear. With Gabriel's strength, not to mention wanting his own heart, even if he wants to kill himself in the Styx, he can do it, but the consequence will be that heaven and hell will fight again. This is an estimate that even as the archangel Gabriel, he could not afford it.
Menman's deep-set eyes lit up with red flames, and his hands like chicken claws reached out in front of him, digging into his chest without hesitation. The skin that covered the bones was torn open by the claws, and a black heart the size of a peach pit appeared in the ribcage. Gritting his teeth, he endured the intense pain, and pulled his heart off.
Gabriel saw the resolute Menma with a faint smile on his face. "Sure enough, it's Lucifer's seed! Be ruthless to your enemies, and even more ruthless to yourself! Gabriel said darkly.
Without a heart, Menma's strength has greatly retreated, and at this time, even if it is an ordinary demon, Menma is probably not an opponent. Gabriel looked at the pitch-black heart shaped like a peach pit, opened his palm and grasped it in the void, and an invisible force sucked Menma's heart in front of him.
"Hehehehe, little one! Just wait patiently for the day when your heart will beat anew. I'm looking forward to your Bloody Paradise! With that, his wings fluttered. A hurricane blew up, and Gabriel followed the rising air and left the cold world of the Styx.
Menma watched Gabriel's figure disappear and muttered, "Humph! No matter what your purpose is, as long as you can let me rule the world. It doesn't matter! A spiritual mother? Hehehehe...I'll definitely find it!!! (To be continued......)
PS: Alas, the second watch is over, it's more than eleven o'clock, and the noodles are also in a ball. Dinner turned into a late-night supper. After eating, washing, and sleeping, I have to be on duty tomorrow!
