42. Sir! This way
"Mason went all the way down from this palace to Mephisto's throne room, but the World Gate itself wasn't there, and the old devil must have hidden it.
But it's definitely here!
It's somewhere we have to go through a lot of danger to find it. ”
The alchemist, crawling on the ridge on the edge of the Devil's Castle, said to the rest of the group:
"That guy has two million star potions in his hand, he used one before, and he needs to wait until his body recovers before he can use the second one, which is the last resort to press the bottom of the box.
And according to his previous estimate of Mephistopheles' exceptional strength, he would hold out for fifteen to twenty minutes at most.
From this point on, time is not on our side. ”
"Then what are you doing all that nonsense? Find it! ”
The engineer, who was maneuvering an entire drone swarm to perform a high-precision parade nearby, scolded:
"Take out all your means, it's time to hide it anymore."
"It's not a question of hiding or not!"
The Queen of Justice, armed with a sword and shield and carrying a sharp axe, looked ahead, and she danced in the sulfur wind with a strand of white black hair, and said in a low voice:
"If the devil wants to hide something, he will not be found so easily, and he can use divinity to make a castle shield, so he can't guarantee that he won't use things of the same level to set up a labyrinth.
We have too little information. ”
"It's nice to have this way we are."
Wonder Woman in the couplet looked at the ticking in her hand, and the screen was like a radar wave whirlwind detection instrument, searching nearby like a lightning detector rod, she said:
"The Zombie K team on a special mission at least sent us back the energy characteristics of the World Gate itself, allowing us to locate the approximate location throughout the Hell.
If you don't even have this, then it's called a real needle in a haystack. ”
"Found it!"
Hal One, wrapped in green light, flew over.
He pointed to the rocky ridge ahead of him and shouted to the others:
"There's a hole over there that leads to the mountain, and it's from where the energy signal is sent out, and the old devil must have hidden the World Gate itself under his throne, and Hal Two and the Grey Bat have already entered.
Come here and don't waste any more time. ”
"Let's go!"
With a wave of his hand, the entire Mason family rushed over, and the other heroes followed closely behind and drew their weapons and entered the battle state.
If the old devil wants to hide a treasure that can change the situation, then it is impossible for him not to set up dangerous guards.
And as the group stepped into the natural cave leading to the castle's underneath, the members of the Ghost Knights, who were directing the army of Hell on the frontal battlefield to cause trouble and fish, sensed the danger signal almost simultaneously.
In addition to defending Mephisto, these Hell Knights are also given a very important mission, and it is their most important job to stop all life that is close to the World Gate itself.
It's a coercive order similar to the effect of a contract, making it impossible for them to turn a blind eye to it.
Including Johnny Skull, who was "exercising" with Dante the Witcher on the battlefield, they all felt the call of duty.
He spat out the flames of hell to force the decadent old man demon hunter back in front of him, and then whistled his cosmic evil spirit locomotive to roar through the chaotic battlefield and make a bloody path close to him.
Then he rode up and ran with the other knights to the guarded place.
However, as soon as his lazy opponent saw Johnny running, he was immediately interested, and the rebellious greatsword that had not been used was drawn, and almost cut Johnny Skull in half with the car's car in the slash of the black sword's blade wrapped in crimson streamers.
"Hey! What the hell are you! ”
The Grand Master narrowly dodged the blow with a coquettish bend, his overly expressive skeleton yelling at the witcher with an angry expression on his face:
"Didn't you say that you would meet friends with martial arts, and the point would stop? You came with that sword to kill me, right? You bastard who doesn't talk about martial arts!
If it weren't for the fact that Lord Ben is in a hurry to go back to work now, I would have to have a good fight with you! ”
"That's why you're leaving."
The decadent old man in a handsome leather coat scratched his white hair, and he beckoned Johnny Skull with a humming rebellious sword and said:
"It's the first time I've been involved in a big brawl of this scale, I don't have much experience and I don't know what I'm going to do, they don't assign me a task, but a witcher like me must do the most dangerous job.
This battlefield is your worst of all.
Pestering you to prevent you from causing trouble to others is what I want to do today, why don't you stay here, Skeleton Brother, how about we continue to meet friends with martial arts until the end of the battle?
I can see just now, you don't plan to work for Mephisto at all, everyone is a worker, why bother each other? Just put two shots in the sky to be worthy of the work given by Lao Mo. ”
"I want to!"
Johnny Skull slammed his burning head on his cool cosmic locomotive and whined:
"But that thing is a coercive restraint effect, the closer your people get to the World Gate itself, the stronger the effect of the coercive restraint becomes, look at them!"
The Grand Master pointed to the other ghost knights at the rear of the battlefield who had drawn fire in the air or on the ground and galloped towards the Devil's Castle, and he spread out his hands and said:
"They can't stand it! I'm better, but then my resistance will only get stronger, it's not that I want to do this, who the fuck wants to work?
It's just that the contract is so that it has to be obeyed.
You see, or else?
You came with me, and you pushed me down when I was really crazy, and I could see it just now, you fisher is a great guy.
If the true second stage transforms, it won't be a big problem to suppress us ghost riders, as long as you are careful of the salvo of the Eye of Judgment. ”
"Okay, let's go."
Without hesitation, the decadent uncle stepped forward and jumped on Johnny's space locomotive.
The two fish-touching creatures who had been pretending to be alive and dead just now roared into the dark and scorching sky of the Hell dimension like brothers, and arrived at the black mountain range where the Devil's Castle was located a few minutes later.
By the time Johnny Skull was piloting the flaming locomotive to the ground, the Ghost Riders who had arrived from behind were already entangled with the three Wonder Woman.
The Queen of Justice and Wonder Woman and the Queen of War form a three-person battle team, relying on the strong martial virtues of the Amazons to block the path of the five Ghost Riders, which will fight the soldiers on the ridge.
"Yo, that's cool."
The decadent old man who jumped off the locomotive The witcher smiled and took a picture of a camera that clicked over there, and then turned his head to Johnny Skeleton, who was also smiling and watching the fight beside him, and said:
"I like to watch women fight the most, and they fight so coolly, if it weren't for the wrong situation now, I would have the heart to applaud them or something, these Valkyries are really handsome."
"Who's to say it isn't?"
The Grand Master swore and patted the burning ribs and said:
"When Lao Tzu cancels this damn knight contract, I must find a girlfriend who is as chic as these girls and sisters in front of me."
"Fellow travelers!"
Dante laughed, and with a tacit understanding, he reached out and shook it up and down with the archmaster of the skeleton, and then grasped the hilt of the rebellious greatsword behind his back, and said:
"So here? Continue to meet friends with force? ”
"It's not going to work, it's too far away, we'll have to go to the cave."
Johnny said quietly:
"Don't you wonder why Mephisto would dig a hole in the top of his treasure? That guy isn't brain-dead, there's a big maze down there!
These guys think they've found their way, but that's just the devil's bad taste.
They love to watch the last minute of hope, and the warriors under my apprentice Mason aren't the first to rebel to try to snatch the Worldgate itself.
Over the past seventeen years, there have been a lot of people who have tried to destroy that thing to end the development of the Stellar Society, especially the ronins who are not used to seeing the way the Stellar Society does things.
No one can get out of that labyrinth. ”
"Hiss"
Hearing this, Dante, who was beside him, immediately gasped, and he thumped his head and recalled:
"Speaking of which, when I was wandering around the Dark Stars before, I did get invitations from some guys who were going to do something big, and now I think about it, they probably came here to do something.
Fortunately, I was busy fishing, and I didn't come. ”
"Let's go."
Grand Master Ghost Knight patted Dante on the shoulder, leaving an ugly scorch mark on the cool leather coat, and said:
"Let's go down and have a look, and help by the way."
"Help? How can it help? ”
The decadent old man asked curiously, and the burning skeleton shrugged his shoulders and said:
"You can't get out of the maze without a map, but it's different if someone leads the way, right? As guardians, we are occasionally sent to hunt down tenacious characters in the labyrinth, bringing their souls to the devil for his amusement.
After so many years, the road in there has been almost touched. ”
"But as you said yourself, the closer you get there, the less you can break the contract."
Dante narrowed his eyes and said:
"What are you going to do?"
"I have my own way, you can see."
The Grand Master snorted triumphantly, and as he rushed into the cave, he touched his vertebrae, and said:
"Count the third quarter from top to bottom, where there is osteoporosis and old problems, and it only takes a strong blow to make my head fall off, and of course, it doesn't mean you win.
Because I can also 'go our separate ways'.
Having your head knocked out means you're dealing with both my Eye of Judgment and the Immortal, which is basically the equivalent of a two-phase battle, unless you can banish my head.
Understand? ”
"Understood!"
The decadent old man blinked and nodded, and then drew the big sword behind him with his backhand.
The closer he got to the Devil's Labyrinth, the burning hellfire of Johnny Skull in front of him became more and more intense, and the crazier the creature's consciousness became, and the flames burning in his eye sockets became more and more fierce and cruel.
It wasn't until the moment he saw the black labyrinth that had almost hollowed out the mountain below, that Johnny Skull's mind was completely occupied by the spirit of vengeance.
With a snort, it turned into a vengeful flame soul and lunged at the witcher, only to be kicked in the ribs by a spartan kick from the white-haired Dante, who had been prepared.
Falling from a great height like a flaming meteor, it landed in the open space at the entrance to the labyrinth below, where Zhenglian and the Mason family were battling the remaining eight Ghost Riders, nine including Johnny.
They are stressed.
These ghost riders are like crazy here.
Their sanity had been dominated by the vengeful spirit of madness within them, and there was no retreat or compromise, and the battle was undoubtedly at its craziest heat.
And on the cliff above, the white-haired demon hunter uncle with the rebellious sword in his hand clicked and moved his neck, he knew that the happy fishing time was over, and it was time to do it with real knives and guns.
"Daddy."
Dante closed his eyes, and his hands gripping the hilt of the sword rattled with force, and he said in a peculiar language:
"You have seen what I have done, and it is your strength that is needed. Please, please don't get out of control this time"
The blood began to boil, the leather coat was windless, and the white hair fluttered strangely, and when the eyes opened, they had become heterochromatic pupils, not like demons but better than demons.
Black scale armor tore out of the skin, like an armor-like weirdness, and in the pain of torn flesh and blood, the alien's wings also spread out from behind.
Demonization!
Activation!
"If it weren't for the smell of this refreshing sulfur wind today, I would often forget that hell is my ancestral home."
The decadent old man smiled hoarsely, jumped up from the cliff, and at the moment of a cool superhero-like landing, the hideous demon transformation was perfectly opened.
There was no exaggerated fire or dark energy, just a hideous, exaggerated Spartan demon with a face covered in black scales.
The rebellious greatsword, which originally needed to be held with both hands, was not enough to swing with one hand at this time, and the claws of the other hand tore through the space with a wave of his hand, reaching into the dangerous black chasm and grabbing it lightly.
A slender war knife wrapped in a white strip of cloth was taken into his hand, and his wrist turned and slashed forward, and the powerful dimensional slash shot up, splitting the hapless Indian Ghost Knight in front of him into four.
"This is a war of evil spirits! Mortals retreat! No compensation for accidental injury! ”
The low announcement made the heroes of Zhenglian look at each other, but with a wave of the gray bat, everyone immediately retreated and handed over the battlefield to the demon in front of him.
He flickered forward to capture Johnny Skull, slicing the Enma Knife downward in his hand in the moment he staggered, slicing the edge of the third section of the Grand Master's spine with precision and slicing off his burning head with incredible smoothness, and stabbing the latter as the latter was struck by the Vengeful Spirit Master to strike the Eye of Judgment.
With a piercing scream, the flaming skull whistled out of the battlefield like a ball, tumbling and landing right at the feet of the gray bat.
The alchemist beside him quickly grabbed the potion to extinguish the dangerous skull, but was stopped by the gray bat, and the master of the other world glanced at the demon who was fighting with the evil spirit knight, and then at the skull head under his feet that was too accurate.
He narrowed his eyes and thought for less than a second, then reached out and took the hot skeleton in his hand, and then rushed into the dangerous labyrinth behind him without looking back.
The others hadn't reacted yet, but out of trust in Batman, they followed.
Once you enter the labyrinth, the world changes.
The devil's place of play is naturally no more treacherous than ordinary high walls, and the passages of the front and back, left, left and right are constantly changing, making the faces of this group of pioneers who must find the main body of the World Gate in the shortest possible time.
In this case, it is impossible to achieve tactical goals through this maze before Mason can resist it!
"Go to the right, that is the right direction that will lead you closer to the gates of the world."
The burning skeleton that was held by the gray bat in his hand gave a hint with a smile, and the gray bat turned to the left without hesitation, and the people behind him looked at each other, and the engineer, who had seen through everything, waved his wrench and shouted:
"That guy is under control here and only wants to kill us, so the hints he gave are all wrong, so just go the other way around and avoid the danger.
Mason was his apprentice, and the knights were all two-to-five.
They want to see the fall of Mephisto more than we do.
This guy is also his own person.
Walk!
Follow this leading party to go inside, although it is very risky, but now there is no way back! ”
