Chapter Ninety-Six: The Meeting of the Demon Kings
Beside the boiling magma pool, dozens of demons of different appearances exuding powerful coercion gathered here. Not only were they wounded and nervous, but many of them were resentful or frightened, and some of them were even trembling, cautiously watching their surroundings, as if they were ready to flee for their lives.
If ordinary demons saw this scene, they would definitely doubt their eyes - the coercion on these demons proved that they were not ordinary people, if they were not demon kings, at least they were close to the level of demon kings. A strong man like this should be rampant in hell, and they would have gathered in groups and looked nervous—could it be that the Seven Monarchs would have joined forces to exterminate them?
But if it's a more well-informed demon, you'll understand what's going on.
These archdemons gathered together had one important thing in common - their territories were all located in the direction from the Hellforge to the Boiling Mountain.
The Furnace of Hell is the core and hub of the entire Hell, and the Boiling Mountain is the closest thing to Heaven in Hell. The reason why the gray mountain range was not very hot all day was precisely because the divine power from heaven and the evil power of hell clashed here, and the fierce collision of the two powerful forces made the rocks shake and become like boiling magma.
It has always been the main bridgehead for the Hell Legion to invade the world of goodness, but ten years ago, the Heaven Legion was assisted by the Inhuman Syndicate and breached the Demon Legion positions stationed in Boiling Mountain with a wave of surprise attacks. Since then, the Inhumans have always attacked from that direction, breaching dozens of Demon King Cities before and after, killing more than half of them.
They have endless stamina, fighting frantically every day, never flinching no matter how many enemies they are on.
They are powerful, each of them has a force comparable to that of a demon king, especially when they form a formation, they are even more lethal, often killing and injuring thousands of elite demons before they can successfully repel them once.
They will not die, even if they are killed on the battlefield, at most half a day later, they will come back in good spirits, not to mention weak, not even a little tired.
In the face of such an enemy, even demons can't help but be afraid.
What's even more terrifying is that as time goes by, the number of Inhumans who come to attack Hell continues to increase, and they are even getting stronger and stronger!
Now, there are about one hundred and thirty or forty Inhumans active in the war against Hell, and they have defeated thousands of demon legions, forcing the demons to withdraw their troops from at least a dozen world battlefields and defend them with all their might. But even so, the battle line of the demons is still slowly retreating, and every few months, a city or even a demon king's castle will fall.
Although as they got closer and closer to the hinterland of hell, there were more and more demon armies that could arrive from all directions, and the speed of their attacks became slower and slower, these guys completely ignored the unfavorable situation, on the contrary, the more enemies there were, the happier they became, and they laughed as simple and happy as children when fighting.
...... They are happy, and the demons are sad.
Therefore, the Demon Kings and Quasi-Demon Kings who have been beaten by them once in the direction of their attacks, or even reborn in the Hell's Crucible, are now gathering here to meet and discuss how to deal with them.
At the edge of the room, a short, skinny Heck lay lazily against a rock. He was wearing only a pair of short leather pants, and his black and thin body had many large and small scars, and he knew that he had experienced a hundred battles at a glance. Around him, there were four or five fallen angels with gray wings, all of them well-equipped, imposing, and ready to fight to the death as if they were facing a great enemy, much better than him.
There are not many demon kings like him, but all the demon kings who have suffered losses at the hands of strangers have become frightened birds, and they have to take a few guards with them wherever they go. In fact, their own force is strong enough, and when it comes to the critical moment, no guards are as reliable as themselves, but they have no confidence, and if they don't bring guards, they can't be sure in their hearts.
However, Hecker's situation is quite different.
He took these fallen angels with him, not to protect himself, but to cover up.
Angels fall for a variety of reasons, and the reason for the fall of these angels is that "goodness is not enough to maintain goodness" - they believe that to be a good person, to protect good people, you have to be more treacherous, evil and cruel than bad people, so that bad people are afraid of you and have to follow the rules you set...... And so they fell.
Although these angels are depraved, they are not completely cut off from the heavens, and they have acted as internal responses in the battle against hell in the game. And after the traversers hooked up with them, they easily agreed to the traversers' suggestion and acted as the guardians of the Erwuzai Demon King to help Heke disguise his identity.
With their cover, Heke played the image of the demon king who "had to leave the Demon King City to retreat as soon as he sat on the throne, and was in a very unhappy mood to sleep, so no one should bother me".
There are not many demon kings like him, and at least a third of the castles breached by the traversers are empty - among the demon kings, although many of them would rather die for the sake of honor, there are also many people who flee with the most valuable treasures and the most trusted subordinates when they see the Inhuman group breaking the castle gate.
The current twenty-second demon king "Terror Giant" Heck - no, it's the twenty-first, about two hours ago, the traversers broke through the castle of the "Heavenly Bull" Moragos, and the hapless Moragus was captured alive by them, and it is estimated that he will be purified like the previous demon kings who were captured alive.
The Demon King can still be resurrected after being purified, but his power will be almost lost, and it is obviously impossible to maintain his position anymore. So it was only natural that Heck, who was ranked 22nd, automatically rose one place.
Heck lay there lazily, not in the slightest interest in the discussion of the demon kings.
Such meetings have been held several times. When he participated for the first time, he was still nervous, and he was afraid that he would be attacked by a group if he revealed his identity, and he would lose the throne of the demon king he had just arrived, and he was afraid that these demon kings would brainstorm and really come up with a way to deal with the traversers.
But after a few times, he found out that in fact, the skills and brains of the demon kings are just like that, very ordinary, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all. They've met so many times, and they've just gathered more troops, and they haven't come up with anything to worry about against the traversers.
So now, not only is he not worried at all, but he regrets it a little.
(I shouldn't have been to this meeting in the first place!)
He sighed in his heart, looked at the demon kings who were nervously discussing, and secretly sneered.
(Let's discuss it slowly, discuss it for another twenty years, and when the dragon of doom comes out, I'll eat you first!)
Whether it is the plot in the original game, or the doomsday deduced by the god of Dongtu Haotian in Huang Tian's memory, the dragon of doom will first appear from the darkest and most evil places, and start to destroy from the dregs of these worlds.
Or rather, devour.
It doesn't make a difference anyway......
