Chapter 536 - 354: On Becoming Light Through the Power of the Demon (Part 2)
This is the power of the Demon King Level! Although outwardly he appears as a handsome human with a monocle, he is one of the culprits behind the world’s destruction.
And now, it seems that all of Hell is in an uproar because of this; as though aside from the Demon Kings, all the demons have gathered here to completely resolve Xue Dili.
The demonic frenzy surged like a black tide, surrounding the Doomsday Warrior. Though a moment ago, they were filled with fear, now their eyes flickered with a crimson light in the darkness, like countless burning coals—greedy and cruel.
The Doomsday Warrior silently gazed at the Great Demons in the distance. He tore off his cloak, making a makeshift fixed device to bind Susu onto his back.
"Do you still feel okay?" Xue Dili asked.
"Mmm... is it... almost over?"
"Yes, it’s almost over..." Xue Dili whispered, yet despite this, the demons dared not advance another step.
"Brother... I’m sorry... I misunderstood you before..."
"Brother, thank you, and I’m sorry..."
"Sssha!" The Snake Demon was the first to break the atmosphere.
It was a giant nine-headed serpent, each head a fierce poison. In any mythology, snakes aren’t that strong, but in Hell, the Snake Demon is the complete superior substitute for the Dragon Demon!
Because the fear of snakes far exceeds the fear of dragons among humans.
The deadly venom sprayed towards Xue Dili, encompassing other demons within its range. Some weaker demons were instantly engulfed by the poison and erupted with shrill screams.
In the pupil of Xue Dili’s eye, the ice-blue eye rapidly spun.
In the next moment, a robust man draped in golden lion skin immediately swung the lion skin in his hand to block the toxic mist, drawing back his massive bow, nocking an arrow.
"Old friend, let me borrow your strength!"
This skill is called "Shooting a Hundred Heads!"
"Buzz!"
The arrow shot upwards, piercing through the nine heads of the Snake Demon effortlessly; the arrow’s momentum unaffected, penetrating nearly a hundred heads before it stopped.
"Kill!"
Under the speech of the human demon, the other demons’ intent to kill and greed surpassed their fear, and they all came forward.
His shattered cloak swept over the demon heads at his feet; the surging demons were like a tsunami.
The Dragon Demon hurried to attack, but in that instant, the demon originally wielding the Bow and Arrow transformed into a Holy Knight in red, raising the short sword in his hand, yelling, "You are a dragon too!"
This is named, Dragon Slayer Sword!
The dragon’s head soared to the skies, but the surrounding demons, like tides, soon saw a creature resembling a sewn-together insect monstrosity roaring and attacking.
Yet in the next moment, this red-clad Holy Knight slapped his waist belt, shouting angrily.
"Henshin!"
The green-black intertwined Masked Rider stood against the wind, his scarf fluttering like a great flag, striking against the storm with his attack.
Rider Kick!
The fierce wind infused into his foot; this strike landed heavily on the insect demon, whose eyes immediately burst, and in the next instant, the knight stirred by the whirlwind completely penetrated its body, killing the demon behind it too.
The insect demon exploded instantly.
"Damned, just what kind of demon is he, to possess so many abilities!"
The terrifying sewn-together creature appeared, hundreds of meters large like it could cover the sky. Its large fist struck powerfully at the ground where the small figure of Xue Dili stood, hammering him hard.
However, the feel was wrong!
The massive mechanical body gripped tightly onto its patched-up arm; a sound of muffled thunder came from below, stones rolling as suddenly a steel fist broke through the earth, the Dangerous Wanderer with armor seams smeared with lava debris bursting with dark red light, hydraulic joints emitting a piercing metallic grinding noise.
"This..."
"Boom!"
A terrifying punch slammed onto its head; the other hand sliced with its combat knife like a hot knife through butter, easily chopping off the demon’s head.
"What exactly are you..." The flying patchwork head looked fearfully at the giant mecha in front of it.
However, its answer was the sound of the combat knife piercing its head.
[Demon’s Eye · Hero Demon (A+ Class): A special eye-type Treasure possessing the Hero Demon’s power, born from the fear demons have of heroes, as long as demons fear heroes, he shall not die nor extinguish.]
[Demonization (Sub Skill): Can instantaneously transform into a conceptual unit matching the "hero" concept, and this transformation ability doesn’t affect overall power, merely impacting demon-specific attack and defense.]
This was now Xue Dili’s power, also the strongest artificial demon after the entire world-saving team exhausted all means to get in touch with World Consciousness—Margaret.
Despite failing, they did not become the true "Hero Demon," instead becoming "Ghost Demon," those twisted evil ghosts, whether it’s the crow with a billion eyeballs, or Kaidou who transformed into a human-shaped balloon, or Susu’s mother who became a giant whale, everything they did was part of this experiment turning humans into demons.
Among them, they themselves were experiment subjects, merely initial experiment subjects.
And the ultimate outcome realized was actually Susu this "Witch," who became clergy at age six in a living dead posture, is both demon and human.
Thus, she became the cocoon of the world, likewise, the one who should wield this power can only be her.
