【Mission】Section 3 Salde (I)
"The abyss of darkness, the destruction of the seal, the appearance of the demon god, the chaos of the world, the son of the god, born of calamity, the holy weapons gathered, turn the tide. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Salde stood in the middle of a desert that had once been the peak of the Blacklight Castle, only to be reduced to nothing after the explosion the other day. He looked at the crack in the air - it was the door to Alcatraz Island that had been opened by summoning the demon god Dorag, and now that Dorag's body was destroyed, his soul was imprisoned, and his power was also in his hands, the passage connecting the present world and the other world was naturally under his control. He pulled a roll of parchment from the sleeve of his robe, which seemed to hold an infinite number of things, and unfolded it, and the prophecy he had studied for years appeared before his eyes.
Salder had been reading this prophecy for eighteen years, and in those eighteen years, he would always take it out and read it again every time he got a little closer to his ultimate goal. Eighteen years ago, he stumbled upon this prophecy in Vasilian, and although he no longer believed in the gods, he still had to admit that it was the arrangement of the heavens in the dark, and it was the heavens who wanted to help him complete the ideal of subverting the Sanctuary and overthrowing the gods. He began to decipher the message from the first day he received the prophecy, through which he was able to discover the legend of the Son of God. He noticed that the prophecy mentioned that "the holy weapons gather together to turn things around", so he believed that as long as he could get all the holy weapons of the son of God, then he would definitely be able to shake the holy realm, and even if he could not obtain all the holy weapons for a while, he could use the demon gods mentioned in the first half of the prophecy to achieve his own goals. He knew that the demon god existed as the opposite of the gods, the gods were for creation, and the demon god was for destruction, so he also wanted to take the power of the demon god for himself, because he wanted to destroy the numb and indifferent sanctuary as well. He spent three years researching ways to trace the energies associated with the gods, but made little progress, and then stumbled upon a clue that he found an obsidian stone in one of the catacombs of Vasilian. After possessing the Obsidian Stone, he finally discovered a way to trace the traces of the gods through the study of the Obsidian Stone, and he felt that his ideal was no longer a dream, and he believed that if he persevered, he would definitely achieve it. A few days ago, the son of God who had another holy weapon, that damn Bennison's son Joshua himself sent it to the door, his power had not yet awakened, and he was not his opponent at all, and when he thought that he could easily obtain another holy weapon, that guy appeared. Salder had him take Joshua with him, as a long-ago favor, and he warned the man that the debt had been paid and that he would never be left alive the next time they met. "Doesn't it seem like I'm not good enough?" thought to Salde, "that kid will definitely come to the door himself, but kill him a few days later, and get out of the way." He reassured himself.
Two days after Joshua was taken by the man, Salder came to the gate to Alcatraz that had been opened with the blood of countless warriors. The gate used to be in the courtyard of the castle's forbidden area, but now that the castle and the mountain had been reduced to ashes by the self-explosion of Gikos, the gate was now suspended above the desert.
"It seems necessary to use a few more demon gods. "Let me see the view of Alcatraz," Salde thought to himself, "and let me see the view!" he took the stone out of the container, and slapped it on his chest, and the stone entered his body, and he closed his eyes, spread his hands, and then the whole person slowly floated, higher and higher, and when he reached the same height as the crack in the air, he suddenly opened his eyes and rushed in.
It had been three days before for Salder to go to Alcatraz, and now he had just returned from that rift, and he had stood in the desert for the first time looking at the prophecy in his hand, and he didn't know that he had been on Alcatraz for three days, because he didn't feel that time had passed so long. "Sure enough, Alcatraz Island is actually another world? How could the demon god only succumb to a small island, but the so-called demon god is actually nothing more than that, if he really had the ability, he would not have been stopped by the son of God in the first place. When he had just stepped into the other world, he said to himself as he looked at the chaos in front of him, at the demonic monsters everywhere, and listened to the roars and wails.
Through that gap, Salder reached the realm of the Otherworld, which once belonged to Dorag, known as the "Soul Eater", but after being isolated on Alcatraz, he could only satisfy his soul-devouring needs through those unlucky ships that had strayed into the Otherworld. Salder noticed that the field was gray and misty, the ground was made up of countless blackened bones, and as far as the eye could see, it was surrounded by endless plains, with no peaks or buildings, only a few lonely dead tree trunks with no branches and leaves. There were several balls of light floating in the air, leaving a small tail-like trail behind them as they scurried around, and Salde felt the breath of life in them, which he speculated were the soul fragments of the hapless man who had been devoured by Dorag. He looked up into the sky and saw that the dark gray sky had a number of incongruous red dots, those red dots were the monster Yakika that Dorag and he had summoned before, and he also found goblins and Trol in various parts of the plains. These monsters had no intention of attacking him as a visitor at the moment, because Dorag's abilities were already under his control, and he was the new owner of these monsters.
"Looks like this realm is mine from now on?" said Salder with a smile.
"Then you don't have to be delusional!" The voice came from the sky, with its own echo, every word seemed to be amplified and repeated several times, and then a crack opened in the sky not far in front of Salde's eyes, and the vortex created by the spatial tear sucked in all the Yaquika circling around it, and when the vortex subsided, a figure appeared from the crack.
"Dare to ask Your Excellency?" said Salde with the same face he had flattered Dorag before, and smiled.
"I am the Seventh Demon God, Destry, and when Dorag dies, his realm will be under my control!" the figure said as he pulled out of the chasm, and he didn't seem to have any intention of coming out of the chasm to fully emerge.
"It's Lord Destry, it's disrespectful!" Salde bowed with a hippie smile, and then asked, "I wonder what I can do for you?"
"Don't be coquettish in front of me anymore! the way you fool Dorag won't work for me!"
"Really, what do you want to do to me, do you want to avenge Dorag?" asked Salde no longer smiling, but remaining calm.
"Revenge, you underestimate me and wait for the demon god!" the demon god seemed to be enraged by the words, and a gust of wind blew through the crack with every word he spoke, "Dorag's stupidity has brought him to his own destruction, and he has not learned from his last defeat. Just because you have his ability doesn't mean you can take his place in the Otherworld, now the Otherworld is just changing from the Twelve Demon Gods to the Eleven Demon Gods, and nothing else has changed, so don't think that our other Demon Gods will be as easy to deal with as Dorag and let you use them!"
"I really didn't think about it!" Salde began to laugh again, "I just wanted to work with you. ”
"Cooperation, how about you please hand over the obsidian stone in your body as a sign of sincerity?" the demon god asked.
"That's not going to happen. Salde said, his right hand subconsciously protecting his chest.
"Then we don't have anything to talk about. ”
"Why? Aren't you going to snatch my magic stone? Don't you really want this stone? Why don't you go after me? Didn't you say that Dorag's realm is already yours? Why didn't you dare to get out of that rift?" Salde suddenly became emboldened, and provoked the demon god, "You don't come out because you can't do it. After seeing that rift and the resulting wind, I understood that the realm between the demon gods is independent of each other, this is the realm of Dorag, and you can only let Dorag and those who have the power of Dorag move, you can only talk to me through this rift in your realm, and you can't break into this realm to affect me. In other words, you didn't own this realm at all, and you were just alarmist before!"
"Yes, yes, you do have two brains. "But I didn't come to grab your stone because I didn't need it, don't forget that I'm the Demon God of Destiny, and your fate is already in my eyes, so why should I interfere with an established fact?"
"I don't believe in fate, I have no faith, the gods will be at my feet sooner or later, and one day I will control your fate, so just jump on it!" said Salde, who was sure that the demon god could not touch him, said even more unscrupulously.
"Whether you believe it or not, your end is already doomed, just take it as my advice to you, don't be too self-righteous!"
"Thank you, Lord Destry!" said Salde, sneeringly.
"Did you kill Dorag?" Suddenly, a soft, neutral voice sounded from behind Salde, and he jerked his head to see a gate appear out of thin air above the plains of the realm of Dorag, the gate was transparent, only the concave and convex outlines could be seen, and everything else was exactly the same as the scenery behind the door. The gate gradually opened, and Salde saw that it was connected to another realm that was different from the seventh demon god, and that there were no cracks, no whirlpools, and no winds when the gate was opened, but it was still calm. Then, Salde saw a figure slowly emerge from behind the door, getting closer and closer......
"What?!Isn't this realm supposed to be the only one I can enter? You guys ......" Salde was startled, and suddenly panicked.
