Chapter 576 - I Killed Them All!
GDK 576: I Killed Them All!
Demons previously under Leviathan and Manticole had made some interaction with Han Shuo along the journey, therefore they had a pretty good impression of him. Having witnessed what happened to that close-minded Demon, they quickly got hold of the actual situation.
“We are also willing!” declared the Demons without letting Han Shuo wait for too long.
Han Shuo remained silent as he occupied himself with getting the altar ready, not even batting an eye at those Demons previously under Golander and Cecrops. After obtaining that midgod’s Divine Soul, deploying such an altar posed no challenge to him.
This so-called altar was in fact just a type of unique magical matrix. By leaving a bit of his divine energy and his Divine Brand, the altar could be energized to release Baptismal Radiance. Once a believer opened up his spirit and accepted the radiance as it touched his soul, a contract would be formed and his power of faith would be offered to the god.
Han Shuo unhurriedly deployed the altar. All those Demons under Cecrops and Golander had hesitant looks even when the situation was very clear to them. No matter how the four Demons King lost their lives, Han Shuo’s might was not to be questioned. Given the current situation, they had only two choices – obey, or die!
The Abyss worshipped the strong. Only characters truly at the pinnacle of strength and whom were practically undefeatable could keep these Demons under control – and Han Shuo was obviously such a character! After the Baptismal Radiance of the four Demon Kings vanished from their souls, their reliance on the four Demon Kings also greatly diminished. Although even at this moment, they were still rather skeptical about the claim that Han Shuo had killed all four Demon Kings by himself, they could sense the lowgod energy of destruction and death from the avatars of Han Shuo’s. They came to realize one simple fact – Han Shuo indeed was stronger than any single one of the four Demon Kings!
Confronted with the threat of death, and abiding by the Abyssal law that the mighty were to be respected, they didn’t have a long time to hesitate. A rather cowardly Demon took the lead and declared, “I, I’m willing!”
No one would denounce this Demon for being a coward. On the contrary, some of those Demons previously ruled by Cecrops and Golander who had been on the fence let out an obvious sigh of relief to see someone else take the lead. They declared their positions in succession, wearing humble and respectful looks.
At this moment, Han Shuo had finally finished deploying the altar. His lowgod of death avatar raised his head and looked around before smiling to say, “A wise man submits to circumstances. Not bad, you guys are rather tactful. You know, it really is a thousand times better to follow me than to follow those four bastards that are now dead. What could those selfish and narrow-minded fellow provide you with? Nolan was murdered by Leviathan merely because she had been bestowed a piece of Divine Weapon of Light, all because he wanted to prevent the possibility of her becoming a god independently. To serve under those four, you were nothing more than puppets and pawns!”
Han Shuo noticed the changes in how the two addressed him and understood the place he now took in their hearts. The time they had in the Void before the stardust current was to return was limited. It was a matter of course that Bord and Zinia would give thought to Han Shuo after becoming Han Shuo’s disciples, hoping that Han Shuo could settle the matter here as soon as possible.
Han Shuo furrowed his brows and was about to say something when he suddenly sensed an aura of destruction approaching. Without thinking, Han Shuo understood that the last Abyssal Demon King, Bechymos, was coming his way.
Sure enough, shortly after, Bechymos, the last Great Demon King of the Abyss realm, wearing a green malevolent mask, suddenly landed before Han Shuo’s eyes.
This Bechymos was covered in a strange-looking green armor and the terrifying aura of destruction from head to toe. His face was completely hidden behind that sinister green mask.
“What’s the matter? You all have promised me not to fight in this place as not to trigger too many boundaries. Why didn’t you all listen?” Bechymos said coldly in his hoarse voice while looking at the crowd with his green eyes. After finishing those words, Bechymos seemed to be rather puzzled. He asked, “Where are the four Demon Kings?”
“Dead!” Han Shuo said calmly. He continued after a short pause, “They are all dead! I killed them all!”
