Chapter 47: The Demon (Part II)

The ability "Arrogance" is really easy to use, and the effect is also very magical, to some extent, it is not far behind the legendary spell "Wishing Technique". Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

However, it also has its own limitations, which are mainly reflected in the user.

Mephistopheles has always been a rational person, and no matter what, it is difficult for him to convince himself to give up the importance of his enemies, which is why he laughs at himself for having to be comparable to the strength of His Highness Io in order to use the ability of "arrogance" to the extreme.

In this way, it seems that a guy with no one in his eyes is more suitable for this ability, but this is not the case.

The arrogant mind cannot harness the power of power, so only the originally cautious and humble people can understand the true meaning of "arrogance" when they sink into the process of comprehending the rules.

Undoubtedly, Mephistopheles was the most suitable person, but he was reluctant to do so.

Unlike those who don't know the height of the sky, Mephistopheles has enough self-knowledge, and his long claustrophobic life in his early years has made his mind extremely tough, coupled with the protection of the "Book of Desire", so no matter what kind of abilities he comprehends and uses in his incarnation or ontology, it will not affect his consciousness.

There are pros and cons to such an outcome, the advantage is that he will not be corrupted and become a slave to "desire", and the disadvantage is that until the ultimate goal of "detaching the rules" is achieved, he can only master the rules to the extent that he can use them rather than integrate them.

He is unwilling to be a part of the rules, and the rules naturally cannot accept him perfectly.

If they are replaced by a demon or devil who has never resisted the integration of the rules, they may even become a monarch-level existence comparable to powerful divine power simply by deepening their understanding of "arrogance". As for whether they will develop an arrogant and unattractive character in the process, it is difficult to say.

Of course, such a way of becoming stronger cannot be recognized by Mephistopheles, so after his strength reaches a certain level, he will use the comprehension of rules such as "arrogance" to move towards the higher-level rules, and finally reach the level of detachment and mastery of a certain upper-level rule, rather than choosing which low-level and middle-level rules to go deep into, until he reaches the end of the road.

Mephistopheles chose this path was difficult, so difficult that since the birth of the material world, only one life had grown up - Io, the "King of the Gods".

But it is undeniable that if you choose to go this way, the road will only get wider and wider, not narrower and narrower.

For Flomo, Mephistopheles' incarnation is naturally extremely important. Nor can he convince himself to treat the other person as a mustard that can be played with like a degenerate. In this case, it is a little difficult for "arrogance" to hide the figure.

It's okay if it's Berserker or other demons, with their contempt for humans and creatures on the main plane, they are easily affected by "arrogance", rise to arrogance, and then subconsciously ignore Mephistopheles' existence.

Unfortunately, Mephistopheles' enemy is Flomo, and it's a bit difficult to expect a rabbit to look down on his opponent if he's a disguised deity. At least with Mephistopheles' current strength, it can't be done without deliberate preparation and advance layout.

Both of the uses of "arrogance" had little effect, and Mephistopheles naturally couldn't hide it.

Therefore, after he killed Bajoyf and attracted Flomo's attention, he could only reluctantly walk from behind the scenes to the front of the stage.

It wasn't just Flomo who noticed him, but other degenerates as well.

From the arrival of Flomo to the death of Bajoyf, the whole process did not take too long. Therefore, the minds of the other Fallen were still stuck on the provocation before Kohler's escape, intending to rush forward and snatch the Gathering Crystal placed on the node of the circle.

Then, Flomo descended, and "Bajoyf" was sent flying, and a nobleman appeared behind them out of thin air, next to his body that had been cut in half.

These unexpected things appeared one after another in a very short period of time, and the guys who were already a rabble fell into a stupor.

However, their wandering minds did not affect the others, and Mephistopheles and Flomo watched each other watch out for their flaws.

The first to strike was Mephistopheles, whose cold sword suddenly unsheathed, and slashed out a half-moon-shaped qi blade under the urging of Mephistopheles' fighting energy.

"Boom-"

The air blade did not attack Flomo, but was slashed behind by Mephistopheles with a backhand. The swift flying blade tore through the darkness and slammed into a stone wall somewhere behind him, sending up a puff of rubble and smoke.

With a single blow, the entrance to the escape passage that several of Kohler's men had worked hard for weeks to mine completely collapsed, and in a short period of time, no one else could think of escaping from it.

Mephistopheles didn't know how many people still knew about the passage, and he didn't bother to know, as long as it was destroyed, the degenerates in the entire cave would no longer have to try to escape, because the exit above was also manipulated by Mephistopheles.

Burying all the enemies, including Flodemon, here in one fell swoop is Mephistopheles' true intention.

"Uhhh

Flomo spread his wings and flew towards the crowd, his claws and hooktails sending a rain of blood.

As Mephistopheles had guessed, the cautious Flomo would not have ventured into a life-and-death fight with an enemy who seemed to be difficult to mess with while someone else was around.

Mephistopheles' act of killing the "Runaway" just now was also interpreted by Flomo as a warning to the remaining "subordinates" who were frightened by his arrival.

In order not to withstand the ensuing attacks, the best way is to strike first, completely defeat this group of undetermined guys, cut off the enemy's wings, and then decide whether to go or stay depending on the enemy's strength.

Otherwise, if your strength is really inferior to the other party, then with so many cannon fodder obstacles, you may not be able to escape unharmed.

Flomo's misunderstanding was deliberately caused by Mephistopheles, and he was quite experienced in dealing with such a cunning guy.

There is no need to say anything, and the other party may not be able to understand the lingua franca, as long as the external conditions and information asymmetry are used to guide them, and other things can be made up by the other party's own brain.

The calculation was hastily designed, and there was no follow-up plan to expand the results, after all, Mephistopheles did not know that Bajoyif would summon such a thing. Therefore, even if Flomo entered the urn, it was just a Mephistopheles murderous knife. It saved him a lot of effort to clean up the "degenerates".

"Alas," Mephistopheles sighed lightly at the thought of this, "The plan can't keep up with the change." ”

If John hadn't become Bajoyf's substitute, then with the help of the current opportunity, John, who had been planted with the "Seed of Wrath", could still cause some trouble for Flomo, so that Mephistopheles could have a head start in the subsequent confrontation with Flom. But now, this group of lamb-to-slaughter degenerates is not even qualified to be cannon fodder for Mephistopheles.

"Karma—"

The angry cry woke up Mephistopheles, who was a little distracted, and after seeing what was happening, he immediately suppressed his curiosity in his heart, and quickly ran towards Flomo who fell to the ground with his long sword in hand.
