Chapter 992
Asmodeus blocked most of the information about the blockade of the space of the main material plane, and the communication of the devil believers who were originally there was also blocked, and there was very little valuable information, if it weren't for Asmodeirstone Guò, a portal that didn't know how to open, sent troops there, I'm afraid some of the problems would not have been circulated.
But even if it's just a little bit, it's shocking enough.
Ancient Evil?
It was before the Devil of Batzu was truly formed, he had become a threat to this world, a mistake of chaos created by the ancient demons, and possessed the power to destroy the entire multiverse, and until now, the gods have not found a way to destroy him completely.
The thought in his mind caused Beria to pause, but he quickly abandoned all distractions and began to feel the changes in energy in the space he had just left—this was the core of the plane constructed by his power, and as a lord who still controlled the favor of the plane, even the slightest flow of energy could not escape the monitoring of his consciousness.
So, he 'saw' it.
Layers of energy were slowly rotating and converging in that space, the process was so slow, but there was a terrible leap, in Beria's perception, the castle seemed to float up layers of mist, or ripples on the surface of the water, all the scenes were constantly distorted, writhing, and no longer fully and clearly presented in his perception.
Even if it is an ancient evil, it is impossible for him to be unrestrained in his castle...... But as a great devil. Beria knew very well that enough impossible things had happened in this world.
He did not hesitate to give the order.
Reach out and wave. A three-pronged spear entwined with fire and darkness appeared in his hand, and the tip of the spear pointed far away, and the door of the study slowly closed with a click, and then, a layer of stone bricks three feet thick rose from the ground, covering the door directly! As the layers of core circles lit up one by one, they suddenly burst out towards that space!
A roaring roar expanded, and the space was a qiē. They all seem to be trembling.
The vibrating glare passed, and Beria's gaze refocused, scanning the mess behind the door, the tables and chairs. Bookshelf. The strange objects and scrolls on it were already scorched black by the huge energy, and only a subtle halo of energy flow was left in the huge space, and a strong smell of burnt burned burned through the cracks in the door.
That moment of magic exploded, enough to extinguish the most powerful magical guards, while sealing off the surrounding space, cutting off the enemy's ability to escape, and the magic that contained at least six energy changes made targeted defense impossible.
However, Beria's expression was not at all relaxed.
Through the magical connection with the castle. He could clearly 'see' everything in that room, but there was a hint of stickiness in his spirit. But it was as if subtle ripples were sweeping away from the space in front of him, more, finer and more viscous, washing towards him again!
What exactly is this thing?
Beria stepped back.
He could only retreat.
Magic has no effect on that feeling, it ...... Will make him stronger?
The Great Devil carefully felt the change, and the shock in his heart deepened, and he waved the three-pronged spear in his hand again, and a complex magic circle appeared in the air, and the dark red Deep Hell Purgatory slowly came out of a burst of sulfur flames. "Obey you, my lord. Filled with a thick and pungent cloud of dust, the giant shook its head with a huge spiral angle, and said with a loud voice.
The sluggish reaction of his men still displeased Beria. But there was no time for these little things now, "Stand at the door!" he commanded, but he stepped back a distance again, until the unpleasant delusion was gone again.
Time passed like this, and the surrounding qiē was so quiet that only the whirring breath of the demon refining could be heard clearly, but other than that, there was no change, and even the unsettling feeling disappeared without a trace—Beria finally took a few steps forward, and then found that the feeling was completely gone, as if it had never been there......
Is it all just a delusion, is it the enemy's trick to make himself suspicious?
He shook his head.
Yes, it's just a scroll, and the magic fluctuations in it have already been investigated by themselves, and there is nothing special about it, so why should there be such a guard.
Why on earth are you so guarded?
The question crossed his mind, but Beria frowned, unable to think of the slightest reasonable reason...... In the situation just now, whether it was doubts or orders, what he made was almost a direct reaction to the subconscious, and what drove this subconscious seemed to be...... Fear?
Fear?
Is the power of the ancient evil thing really so powerful that it cannot be matched?
The Great Devil pondered for something unexplainable, but he shook his head and stalled his thoughts—the danger was too great for the potential benefits of that power to be borne by him alone—Beria never denied his ambitions, but he was equally aware of the distance between ambition and hubris.
Don't touch things that you can't grasp......
It is necessary to expose this matter in order to do it properly. Such an action, which could threaten every lord, was bound to provoke public outrage, and Asmodeurs could not fail to make a certain statement, but before that, it was necessary to seize the evidence that Grasia and Filna had colluded with that ancient evil......
But, can you catch it?
For some reason, the idea popped into the plan that Beria had just drawn up.
This sudden thought froze him, and then some more sharp distractions pierced his mind—it was connected to him, the situation in the castle, and strong magical fluctuations were constantly spreading, bursting out from every floor of the castle. Let the whole space seem to be trembling for no reason!
As the ruler of the space, such changes feed back into the spirit of Beria. The sharp sting almost made him scream!
What's going on?
Beria snorted, and his whole body had turned into a shadow! But in an instant, he had passed through two corridors and entered another area of the castle! The crash sound mixed with the cracking friction sound came from behind, that the ground could not support the high-speed footsteps and cracked, and passed through the corridors layer by layer, like a low roar!
The Great Devil's body suddenly came to a standstill. There was a hissing sound on the ground, and his eyes filled with fire turned, already glancing aside from a small hall in front of him...... But here it seems to be normal. Outside the empty room, there were only two slender and stinging Maha demons guarding them, and the inside was even more empty, and the sudden arrival of the big devil made the two guards look full of surprise. It seems that he doesn't understand why the master's cousin is so panicked at this moment. And before they could see the salute. Beria had reached out and pressed the top of their heads, and the magic surged, snatching out all of their memories from a moment ago!
Pressing the memory will cause permanent damage to the soul, so the two guards have convulsed and fallen down in an instant, and their bodies twist and contract...... Although they were lucky enough to save their appearance, the loss was clearly worthless - Belia found nothing abnormal in their souls except for a normal memory!
But the anomaly had already happened, Beria was pretty sure - a moment ago. It was in this position of the castle that the spiritual connection with him was broken!
It was a short-lived feeling. It's like an illusion, but Beria knows it's not - it's like moving on the stairs and suddenly a staircase disappears, even if your feet will step on the next staircase to continue going, but that rhythmic gap can't be erased!
Lost control of his castle...... This has not happened in tens of thousands of years!
That sticky feeling didn't come again, so Beria could only carefully perceive the situation around her, trying to find a clue...... But after a while, it calmed down again. Allowing his spiritual power to sweep through the castle, not letting go of the slightest corner, that feeling never appeared again.
The mental wear and tear made Beria feel a rare tiredness, and he sighed, closed his eyes slightly, and reached out to rub his head. At this time, the entire castle had begun to be noisy, and the spirit demons of the lord began to spread in an orderly manner
- Since the way of tracking is not enough for Beria to find the invisible enemy, he must change his course as much as possible.
The premise is that the enemy will continue to attack him.
Is it possible?
But in an instant, the hollow pain had once again burst out in Belial's spirit! And it was far more intense than the first! The pain of the senses and spirit being forcibly torn apart made the great devil's body shake, and he almost lost consciousness!
"I ...... Found you!"
Flames surged around Belial's body, as if they were physically wrapped around his body, becoming one with it...... His eyes opened, a smile appeared on his hideous countenance, the flames erupted, then dissipated, and his figure appeared in another corner of the castle!
Inside a small hall, darkness pervaded. The original dozens of magic lamps in the room were like candles in the wind, only a faint dark red remained, but in the depths of the space, there were a few dazzling silver lights...... It does not penetrate the misty darkness, but deep in it, all the light seems to be attracted by the bright silver, flowing towards the darkness, being swallowed up by a steady stream, and the power of this devouring is slowly increasing, the silver luster expands like silk, hooks up with each other, and gradually outlines the human-like appearance in the space like a brushstroke
The fierce light of the fire tore through the darkness. The dark red glow was almost the same as the shadows, only with a more active vibration, and countless swirls churned through the space, swallowing everything in the subtle sizzle of the flames burning.
Beria strode out of the light of the flames.
The dark red eyes reflected a silvery moment, and the feeling of crisis in the heart of the Great Devil was already extremely strong.
His body was no longer human-like, but more than twelve feet tall, his hair completely covered in black-red flames, fluttering in the void, muscles swelling under his dark and smooth skin like pure gold, and even every nerve was throbbing and moaning. You can unleash the most powerful blow at any time. That terrible euphoria, like a fierce beast in estrus seeing another stronger kind in its territory, is destined to end in an endless struggle.
That's not acceptable...... It's your business that you're going to be in heat. But I'm not interested in a biting duel with you.
The tense muscles subconsciously trembled!
The whispers that seem to be talking and laughing are not words, nor are they words of the heart...... Rather, it is a thought that is engraved directly into the spirit. The thought that suddenly appeared in the spirit was like a one-man show in Belial's own spirit......
The voice is low, gentle, and unthreatening...... But a powerful devil like the Fourth Lord has long been tough and stable in his own mental defenses, and his mind is tightly guarded. The sensation caused by an abnormal thought that appeared in his thoughts was far better than a knife and an axe, and even more than burning the internal organs with strong acid. It's even worse!
"You...... You're Pandorian Ryan?"
"You think too highly of yourself, Lord Beria. ”
The other chuckled - his form was nothing more than a frame outlined out of thin air by a silver gloss, without a body, let alone a face. But in that moment. But Beria could clearly feel the way he played with the corners of his mouth, and that kind of arrogance and ridicule made the devil's heart blazing with anger, and he wanted to crush it again and again!
This is also caused by the other party.
Beria breathed deeply, forcing himself to calm down.
Anger, grief, fear...... All kinds of turbulent emotions are the most vulnerable signs on the spiritual level. It seems to be violent and tough, but in fact it is full of loopholes. The easiest to be taken advantage of—especially when the thought in his mind turned, he found himself in a disadvantaged situation—and no matter how much he summoned his power, he couldn't distort the space around him even a bit! let alone summon any of his men. You can't even run away as fast as you can!
This also means that before waiting for those cannon fodder to arrive on his own, Beria must face this terrible, incomprehensible opponent!
If there was anything more troubling than facing an unknown enemy, Beria's answer must be that his men would not arrive in time - the Lord of the Fourth Prison valued his so-called bravery when recruiting his subordinates, but he never showed even the slightest bit of bravery in any war.
And securing a way out is even more important for him...... Even if the enemy in front of him seems to have no chance of being a 'strong enemy' at the moment.
"What's the point?" Pandorian Ryan ...... Or, should I call you Lord Edward?"
Beria smiled suddenly, though the smile was barely closer to a muscle twitch: "Will His Majesty Asmodeus allow a person like you to stay in the Nine Prisons?or, do you think you are an ally with him? However, this pact doesn't seem to include you taking the initiative to make trouble, right? What you are doing now is undoubtedly destroying this ......"
By the way, the Lord of the Nine Hells would not allow such a being to remain in Hell, if he appeared here and Asmodeus did not react...... This monster doesn't have a huge threat to the Nine Hells! At least, it wasn't a threat before!
The sudden realization in his mind made Beria's thoughts start to run violently!
This monster is recovering, but why? Yes, if his power is the power of killing gods, then—those changes in the astral plane! The storm of distorted divine power, who else but Pandorian Ryan can create it? But that terrible effect, for the ancient evil creatures, is also not easy to create, if his power is lost in that battle, or even all of it, the situation in front of him can undoubtedly be fully explained!
That's why he needs to work with little guys like Glesia and Filna to come up with that series of things, ostensibly to help those two little girls compete for power, but in fact, his actions are just for him to accumulate power!
Strips of information appeared in Belial's mind, interspersed, like a series of strokes, gradually outlining the mystery more and more clearly...... It's just that the great devil doesn't feel any joy at this, but becomes heavier and heavier—
Of course, the reason for the presence of this ancient evil creature here is not the ridiculous assassination...... Or rather, arranging the investigation by himself, and the spies who intended to Glesia, caused themselves this great trouble in ignorance!
He coveted the great forces of hell - either Glesia, or Levistus, or even Filna...... But now, after weighing the pros and cons, he may have nailed his sights on himself - he could avoid a head-on confrontation with Astymoles' intentions, but he was far more powerful than a half-man like Filna!
Even, his own death will not upset the balance of power in hell,
However, it's not that easy!
Out of the flying molten stone, a huge palm four or five feet in diameter poked out, sharp as a knife, and the hook claw flipped to the ground, and then a large head with a slight sign of baldness poked out of the ground. Another giant palm also poked out from the ground, pulling its huge body out of the ground with a combined force.
The silver figure looked up, as if looking at the troll standing in front of him more than thirty feet. The upper body of this monster resembles a human, with almost perfect body proportions, except that the end of the arm is a huge blade, and the outside of the shoulders is also waving dozens of tentacles like an octopus, the surface of the body is faintly shining with a metallic luster, and the lower body is like an insect, supported by four multi-knotted supporting legs.
