Chapter 259: The Rainbow Dragon Scales of the Nine Layers of Hell
This is hell, a place of pity and resentment.
This is the home of the devil.
Here is the plane that interprets the nature of evil with the rules of orderβββ platinum dragon god Bahamut

Bato's Nine Layers of Hell
Sometimes it is also referred to simply as Bato Hell or Nine Layers of Hell.
This ever-war-torn plane best satisfies the imagination of travelers, the greed of treasure hunters, and the wrath of paladins.
This is the ultimate plane of order and evil.
Premeditated, cunning, cruel, contracted.
Compared to the other lower realms, the Nine Levels of Hell are known for their purity, variety and despicability.
The devil who dwells here is more treacherous, more cunning, and more dangerous than the bottomless abyss
The demons of the abyss indulge in coveted, crazy, evil powers.
In order to gain great power, the demons of the abyss are even willing to abandon their own race and contact the outer gods!
But the devils in hell are completely different from them.
As for the demons of the abyss, the devils always sneer at them as "brainless reckless men".
They always have a plan for attack, and carefully nurture the next plot for the necessary revenge.
If desired, the Devil could even offer loyalty to a family of the Material Plane for hundreds of years!
They then wait for the end of the contract, and then take advantage of the previous hidden terms to take all the treasures and souls.
Barto is made up of nine layers, one lower than the other, like a protrusion descending deeper into the deep hell.
Each of the lower levels gives the traveler a better view in general (although almost no traveler can enjoy it at all).
All the layers come together like a puzzle, and each new descent gives the traveler a deeper understanding of how the puzzle fits together.
Note! This is actually an evil temptation.
The Nine Hells are home to various low, high, and noble devils, as well as some evil gods such as the kobold god Kurtumak and the god of the Sava fishmen, Sekora.
Compared to these terrible beings, what is worse in Hell is the lord who exists in the ninth layer:
Each lord controls one of the nine levels of hell, and their status ranges from descendants of the Deep Hell Purgatory to demigods.
Of course, all the lords will eventually be under the orders of Asmodeus, the lord of the nine layers of hell
He rules over the lowest of the nine layers of hell, Nessers, and is the absolute master of the entire hell.
At this time
The first layer of the Nine Layers of Hell
A black river flows silently on the crimson earth.
There are no ripples on the calm black river, and no life exists, like a solid piece of coffee jelly.
This is the famous River Styx in the astral plane.
The Styx River flows through the very top of the nine layers of hell: Aphnanas, just as it flows through the very top of all the lower realms.
Each of the nine levels of hell has tributaries of the River Styx and waterfalls.
It is the messenger of death and the destination of life.
And some powerful divine powers can use its existence to go to the heavens and worlds.
Aphnath is the name of the first layer of the Nine Hells.
It's a charred, gravel-filled wasteland where mountains and sidewall sloping hills break up the monotonous landscape.
Legions of demons in armor are always guarding this place, always gathering for a bloody assault across dimensions.
The air was filled with blood-red light, and ownerless fireballs flew in the air, producing terrifying explosive effects from time to time.
Even more terrifying is the central land of Aphnas.
It was a blood-red river that crisscrossed and crisscrossed like the blood vessels of the human body.
Streams of blood flowed through Aphernas and eventually disappeared into the River Styx.
No one knows where the blood came from, though the devils claim it may have been the blood of all of Aphnath's previous victims.
Blood
This otherwise peaceful place seems destined for peace.
The choppy waves pushed the blood forward.
These waves bring with them a powerful force that seems to herald a gathering of unfathomable forces.
"Wow-"
The surface of the sea of blood was torn apart by huge ripples
A terrifying dragon claw that covered the sky and the sun suddenly stretched out from the sea of blood, and then pressed heavily into the scorched earth beside it.
As the black shadow in the center of the sea grew larger and larger, a behemoth slowly emerged from the bottom of the sea.
"Poof!"
With a loud roar, countless corpses rose from the bottom of the water, as if thrown from the palm of an invisible hand.
At that moment, an earth-shattering voice came from the surface of the sea, as if something was gradually waking up from the depths.
"Boom!"
The sea cracked suddenly!
A large dragon with five dragon heads and a two-legged wyvern-like tail erupted from the sea of blood.
Her head is covered in sharp dragon scale armor, and her body is huge and powerful, and every part of her body embodies the strength and beauty that is unique to a true dragon.
"Roarβ"
Tiamat let out a deafening roar, announcing the return of the de facto mistress who took control of Aphnernath.
After roaring, the five-colored dragon mother finally relieved some of the depression in her heart.
She slowly lowered her head and stretched out her paws.
A glittering rainbow dragon scale that refracted iridescent light in the sunlight lay proudly in the claws of the five-colored dragon mother.
Compared to her massive body, the scale was as small as a speck of dust.
But the burning eyes of the Five-Colored Dragon Mother never left the scale.
"Ron the Iridescent Dragon"
She muttered something.
The next second
The five-colored dragon mother spread its dragon wings, and the huge dragon shadow disappeared into hell in an instant.
And according to this, thousands of kilometers away
A huge bronze fortress.
"My lord, the dragon is back, and the five-colored dragon legion on the border is starting to move, and Mothra is asking for reinforcements."
A newly evolved Hell Demon knelt on the ground and reported the results of his investigation to the titular controller of Aphernas, the Grand Duke of Byer, who was hanging high on his throne.
While it was time to report, the Hell Alchemist quietly raised its head, trying to observe the master who had been in control of him.
As a high-ranking devil who has just been promoted, no hell demon is willing to submit to the knees of others forever.
It now longs for its own slave and . Throne.
however
No matter how wide it opens
There was only a shadow on the blood-red throne, and he couldn't see Bair's figure at all.
All it could see was a pair of blood-red pupils.
"I see, you go down."
Byer's voice was hoarse and breathtaking.
It didn't seem to notice the dissent of its men, and just nodded and motioned for them to stand down.
After the Hell Alchemist walks out of the bronze fortress.
suddenly
"It looks like it's time for the little ones to clean up."
An abrupt female voice came from behind Bair's throne.
Accompanied by the "click" sound of high-heeled boots stepping on the ground of melted stone.
A woman with the appearance of a human woman, armed with a spear, dressed in a pure white gown with a pair of white wings on her back, slowly stepped out from behind the throne.
The graceful gesture and pure white gown are involuntarily reminiscent of the beautiful scene in heaven.
Her long hair was draped over her shoulders, twinkling like stars in the night.
The beautiful face is perfect in terms of lines and skin, as if it had been carved by the highest artist.
And on that perfect face, there are a pair of deep blue eyes, shining with wisdom and mystery, as if able to see through people's hearts.
Her nose was straight, her lips were slightly upturned, and her well-defined face made it impossible to resist the desire to get close to her.
The angelic warrior walked up to Bail and looked at him with her beautiful face.
"He's already colluding with the front-line warriors, and even my kind."
Hidden in the dark shadows, Grand Duke Baier sighed helplessly in the face of the inquiry of the demon in front of him.
There seemed to be some sadness in his tone:
"This kid has been using it for hundreds of years, and I'm really a little reluctant to use it."
"And tomorrow?"
Bayer shook his head:
"Let's do it today, remember to be neat, and find out the next Minister of Investigation by the way."
The female demon nodded with a smile:
"Okay, my duplicitous lord."
Then, she twisted her seductive body and slowly walked out of the castle.
Just as he was about to push the door and leave, the demon suddenly stopped.
She turned and looked at the throne:
"That she-dragon has been becoming more and more reckless lately, and she is no longer satisfied with the territory of the Skull Pillar, and has begun to lead the army of five-colored dragons to invade my territory."
As she spoke, she licked her scarlet lips, and an incomparably fiery battle intent appeared in her eyes:
"Shall we advance that plan?"
Face your subordinates, a battle maniac who is always thinking about starting a war.
Bayer rubbed his forehead with a headache:
"Gabriel, stop your unnecessary and frivolous provocations!"
"Do you think I don't know that you secretly went to Tiamat's territory some time ago to kill a red dragon?"
Hear the words
Lust Gabriel pursed the corners of his lips and kicked the pillar next to him in dissatisfaction:
"Cut, I'm obviously very hidden, and the devil knows how that old woman found out that I assassinated her."
The corners of Bayer's mouth twitched as he looked at Gabriel, who was playing petty in front of him.
rushed into someone's territory and swaggered away with an adult red dragon.
Do you call that concealment? You call that an assassination?
Anyway, you'd better hide that famous face in hell!
Isn't it okay to wear a mask!
"So, fight or not!"
Gabriel rolled up his sleeves and looked at Baier with his hands on his hips, looking like I would hit you if I didn't hit her.
Apparently she was not satisfied with the usual workload of an executioner, and was preparing to find something to do.
Although lust and succubus may sound similar, they are fundamentally different.
Not only are they the most beautiful and conspicuous of all the demons of hell, they are also the most fierce and disciplined warriors.
They swept through the air, quickly killing creatures who offended their owners or defied Asmantis' edicts.
The image of the demon is a Peugeot humanoid creature with huge wings.
Most of them also wore distinctive armor and horned helmets, and carried elaborate swords and bows.
Some instances will even use the Rope of Entanglement to trap powerful opponents.
Legend has it that the first demons were angels from the upper planes who had fallen due to temptation or sin.
Lust Demons are often mistaken for celestial creatures during their quests for conquest and corruption, and they gain some benefit from them.
Compared to those ancient and powerful desires, the succubus clan has pulled their crotch more.
Even the specialized variety in the succubus: the battle succubus, is not an opponent at all in front of the fighting ability of the desire demon, and can only bow to the upper hand.
Bayer shook his head:
"It's not that you don't fight, but you can't fight now."
"Humph!"
Hearing this, Gabriel pursed his lips and turned his head, as if he didn't want to hear you chanting.
Bayer looked at his No. 1 general with some headache.
He understands that if he doesn't talk about the core things, this subordinate who is stronger than himself is afraid that he will rebel.
"Gabriel."
Beyer's tone softened, and he whispered the other man's name.
"Humph!"
However, Miss Lust said that she is very popular now and doesn't want to play with you.
Baier sighed and said slowly:
"Do you remember Asmodeus?"
Mentioning the name of the Lord of the Nine Hells, Gabriel also put away his wayward positive color:
"He? What's wrong? What's the fuss again? β
"Nope."
Bayer shook his head:
"It can even be said that in the tens of thousands of years since that battle in Hell, Asmodeurs has never interfered in the affairs of any of the lords of Hell, nor has he introduced any new regulations."
"Isn't that good? Without him, you can be free, and you won't be grabbed by the back of the head every day. β
Miss Desire, who is full of combat skills, is a little puzzled, why do these lords still like the way others take care of themselves?
"In normal times, it's great, and I'm eager to live now."
Bair looked at the starry sky, his tone was dark, and he couldn't hear what he was feeling when he said this.
"But now, look at this chaotic Bato hell."
Bair held out a hand and pointed in the direction of the ninth level of hell beyond the bronze fortress.
Amazingly, the hand of the Grand Duke, who ruled the first layer of hell, was unexpectedly white and smooth, like a human hand.
"Since the rebellion of the demons on the third level seven hundred years ago, the whole hell has begun to be in turmoil, and the residents like Tiamat have begun to expand their territory unscrupulously."
"At this time, Asmodeirs has not appeared to take charge of the overall situation, which is very abnormal."
"You're saying there's something wrong with Asmodeus?"
Miss Lust Demon obviously reacted at this time, the Lord of the Nine Prisons has been too peaceful all these years.
It's just like.
"Hmm."
Baier looked at Gabriel and nodded in satisfaction.
She was already very intelligent when she was in heaven, but her enthusiasm for battle occasionally overwhelmed reason, which was one of the reasons why she fell into hell.
Speaking of the Lord of the Nine Prisons, Baier seemed to be interested.
His eyes were gloomy, and he recalled the great battle of that year:
"In the battle of the fairy wilderness, the gods killed the last of the iridescent dragons, and that prophecy was annihilated."
"But even I didn't expect that in Bato Hell, there was actually a rainbow dragon egg in the hands of the Lord of the Nine Prisons who protected his life, which was also the origin of the battle of hell."
Hearing this, Gabriel frowned slightly.
At that time, she was participating in the invasion of the bloody war in a main material plane, and was not in hell, so she missed the grand divine war.
She raised her head, looked at Baier and asked curiously:
"What really happened in that fight? Why did Asmodeurs suddenly fall silent all these years? β
Bair was silent for a long time.
Eventually, he shook his head: "I don't know. β
"Huh? Weren't you in hell at the time? β
Gabriel stared suspiciously at Barr on the throne, his face full of the words I don't believe.
Bayer hesitated for a moment, but spoke slowly:
"Back then, there were too many gods, and the majesty of countless gods of the dragon gods, titans, order systems, and evil systems was almost filled with the entire hell."
"Asmodeus refused to hand over the egg, and as a result, he had to fight the gods."
Speaking of this, a flash of fear suddenly appeared in Baier's eyes.
The divine war almost destroyed the nine layers of hell back then, and the picture of Asmodeirs fighting the gods in blood also left an indelible impression on his heart.
It was the bloom of absolute power, the back of these hell lords who could not look up to for eternity.
From that moment, Bayer understood.
Even if all the Hell Lords from the 1st to the 8th Layer of the Nine Hells combined, they are definitely not the opponent of that Hell Lord!
After a long silence, he continued:
"That great war was fought very quickly, because no god was willing to intervene in this matter, and no matter how strong Asmodeus was, he would not be able to resist the siege of more than a dozen great gods and hundreds of gods of medium power."
"Me"
Speaking of this, Bayer gritted his teeth and finally said what happened back then:
"Before Asmodeirs was about to lose"
"As a precaution, I avoided the main battlefield of the ninth layer and went to the mezzanine plane of hell."
Hearing this, Gabriel suddenly glanced at Baier with some disdain:
"So, you ran away at the last minute?"
Beyer's face flushed.
"Ahem. It's not an escape, it's a strategic shift. β
Thankfully, shadow magic can keep the rosy on his face from being noticed by his men.
"Okay."
Gabriel shrugged.
Baier calmed down the embarrassment in his heart for a while, and then said:
"Those territories of yours should be used as sacrifices to appease the wrath of the Five-Colored Dragon Mother, and before the plan begins, we will need her as a shield to block those malicious eyes, anyway"
Beye's eyes were gloomy and he looked at the starry sky of the Nine Hells.
It was a blood-red sky, and countless blood-drop-like stars emitted a red light and dark on it, like a pair of bloody eyes.
"All transactions have long been priced under the supervision of fate."

Cullen plane
Horse Racing Town
Richard pushed open the door and walked inside.
The interior of the room was rather austere, except for a few basic pieces of furniture, except for a few thick books scattered on the table, covered with a thin layer of dust.
With the entry of Ron and his party, the small stone house began to be lively.
The blonde boy sat down on the only stone chair in the house and began to slowly recount his past:
"My father was a bard, part-time doctor."
"I came here with my father."
"When I was seven years old, I suddenly awakened an ability."
Speaking of which.
Richard paused, looking up at the crowd:
"That's the one. Strange abilities. (End of chapter)
