Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 36

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 36]

It seemed to be the voices of the little ghosts. He followed the noise to the lower floor of the palace, and saw the huge armory at a glance. Countless little ghosts were running around in it. From time to time, the big devil picked up one of them. The little ghosts were dancing and struggling, but He was soon thrown into a burning furnace by the big ghost.

They screamed, their bodies melted, their souls floated out, and black demonic substance oozes from the bottom of the furnace.

There are several large flame demons waiting under the furnace for a long time. They burn and melt the collected demons in their bodies, and reshape them into demon weapons of various shapes, swords, spears, bows and crossbows… There were many more weapons that Ciel could not name, and they were all piled aside.

Some sturdy big ghosts ran back and forth, moving these forged demon weapons out of the palace.

The whole process is noisy and rigorous, and the wailing of the goblins resounds throughout.

“Weapon Workshop?” Ciel was confused, “Why do you make so many weapons?”

“Nature is war, used for evolution, and the survivors can absorb the souls of the dead demons.” Gladiu explained, “After each war, the air is filled with scattered souls, so the surviving little devils will become Big ghosts or low-level demons, the low-level demons survived the battle and became demon pioneers, demon warriors and the like, and then the surviving warriors and pioneers would turn into powerful demons and demon generals, and eventually there would be enough Strong demons are favored by their lords and are promoted to princes of demons, second only to the immortal demons. The princes are very cunning and ready to replace their lords at any time.”

boom!

Ciel wanted to talk to Gladiu about the situation in hell when suddenly he heard a loud noise.

He looked at the sound, and a flame demon threw out his lava fist and forged a ring. The ring was beaten on the anvil-shaped rock. First, a dazzling golden light appeared, and then the light faded, leaving behind Amazing burnt black profile.

“Look, Ciel, look!” Gladius urged, “that’s the real treasure, the scorched black ring, a powerful treasure that is very popular in the Fire Lord’s army, which can summon an amazing fire-breathing , melt everything in front of you.”

“Oh.”

“‘Oh’? You guy, what’s the matter with your attitude. Of course we’re going to steal it, even the big devil will fight for it, go, go!” Gladius shouted.

Ciel’s eyes widened, and he walked through the vast workshop to the furnace at the other end, and got this charred ring from a flame demon blacksmith?

It’s easier said than done!

“The charred ring… the charred ring…!” Gladiu repeated repeatedly, “Only if we get such a good thing, we will not be able to make this trip in vain.”

Ciel stared at the ring in the distance, and the flame demon lifted the scorched black ring into the air with flaming hot air, slightly stimulating its power, and a large group of dazzling giant flames roared out, with a mighty force, dozens of them were still in chaos. The kid who ran melted instantly and turned into a large pool of fan-shaped ashes. The kid next to him absorbed the soul and immediately grew bigger in place, and surrounded himself to compete for the ashes of his companions.

Indeed…very powerful, Ciel stared at the ring.

So, how do I get there?

Chapter 46

Ciel walked down the corridor cautiously to the little ghost square at the bottom of the workshop. They ran around aimlessly, making high-pitched noises, making people feel disturbed, and the big ghosts were flying everywhere in the sky. , grabbed the kid at random and threw it into the distant melting pot. Ciel had to pass through this huge square while avoiding being discovered by the flying ghost in the air, otherwise he would become raw material.

He dived down, and one after another little demons about his size swayed around, shoving each other, bumping into each other, most of them aimlessly, and some tried to find a place to get out, but were quickly blocked The big ghost pushed back and could only keep running in the square, venting his energy, and sometimes beating each other.

Just be careful, don’t get caught by these little bastards.

While thinking about it, Ciel saw a strange kid.

This little devil doesn’t run around the square or collide with each other like the others, it just sits on the ground alone, holding its head in both hands, staring straight ahead.

Such a bizarre performance could not help attracting Ciel’s attention, he walked over to the kid and squatted down like it.

“Why don’t you just wander around like the other brats?” Charles asked.

“Huh.” The kid turned his head and stared at him.

It seemed that he was a kid who didn’t have time to develop the ability to talk and couldn’t communicate. Ciel had to look around, and immediately saw a particularly ferocious kid. Using his companion’s limbs as a weapon, he smashed and knocked everywhere, very arrogant, and beat other brats. It has to scramble, and if the little ghosts run too slowly and stop in its path, they will be kicked away by it.

The ferocious kid also noticed Ciel and the unmoving peculiar individual next to him, waving an arm and rushing over, smashing at Ciel and them.

Ciel hurriedly dodged, the kid beside him was smashed, and then lay on the ground like that, staring motionless at the slate on the top floor of the armory.

“Gah!” The murderous kid aimed at Ciel and attacked, and without hesitation, Ciel reached out and grabbed the kid’s arm that he used as a weapon, grabbed it at once, and punched it hard, hitting the kid in the face.

It felt like a child fight, and Charles seemed to be back in his childhood when he was fighting in the village, his muscle memory was awakened, he jumped up, straddled the kid, and punched it until it fell silent. A strand of soul floated out of it and was swallowed by Gladius.

Ciel ate the murderous kid, and felt that his body had grown bigger. That’s it, violence, victory, and becoming stronger.

He saw the chaotic scene around him. The little ghosts drilled out of an underground passage in large numbers and fought each other here. If they grow big enough, they will have the opportunity to be carried by the big ghosts to the training place for soldiers. If you are unlucky, you will be thrown into the furnace and burned.

And most of them failed in the fight and died at the hands of the same kind.

“There’s a war going on outside.” Ciel heard vibrations and explosions in the distance.

“Yeah, the big battle between the demon gods, every minute, every second, all the time.”

“You keep killing each other like this? There will never be peace?” Ciel was a little strange. He thought that the demons were hiding in hell, sharpening their knives and preparing to attack the mortal world. Unexpectedly, they were constantly slaughtering each other.

“Fighting keeps us hungry, let every kid know the beauty of victory, let all demons strengthen their determination to kill, let all my kind know how to devour souls. In this way, when the door opens, the demon opens the door. To the door of another world, we will ensure a sure victory.”

“Open the door demon…” Ciel knew this demon god, who was responsible for opening the way for hell.

“I can feel the countdown to the next invasion here. There is less than a century left. If someone in the mortal world responds, the time will be shortened. The invasion is aimed at your world. The moment the demon who opens the door successfully opens the door, you It is clear that hundreds of millions of big ghosts, little ghosts, low-level demons and high-level demons are ready for the greatest conquest, greedy, violent, eager to try, eager to swallow up all the delicious beings. You think you are powerful, but you have nothing in the face of hell. We are not of the same order of magnitude.” Gladiu described cruelly.

“It’s amazing. Although living in a body like a little devil, you can say such a righteous thing.” Ciel looked down at his short hands and feet. Although he grew up, he could only describe it as insignificant.

“Bah, it’s because your efficiency in collecting souls is too low. Hurry up and bring new souls up.”

After thinking for a while, Ciel walked over to pick up the kid who had been knocked down before. Its body regained its balance, but it still sat on the ground, not participating in the surrounding noise.

“Look, this kid is very peaceful.”

“This is a strange species in hell, without a longing for a soul, destined to be small and unfulfilled, and we despise the weak, let alone the unmotivated scum. Is it qualified to do nothing here? It should fight desperately! Let Become stronger yourself! Give your lord an advantage in war!”

“If all the imps were as peaceful as it was, the demons wouldn’t attack other worlds.”

“It was born in the wrong place, Ciel, go eat it and take its soul.”

Ciel stared at the dazed kid for a long time, and then looked around the armory. There were probably two or three little ghosts in the main square like it, and their behavior was quite negative.

They have a hard time surviving, and because of their non-resistance nature, they will be eaten by violent brethren in one fell swoop.

“It looks like an opportunity for the demons to become peaceful.”

A hell crowded with peaceful little devils, never to invade everywhere, Ciel thought of this, and felt that he had seized an opportunity.

“Don’t be like a pustule trying to find some kind of bridge for peaceful coexistence.”

“what?”

“You humans should fight to death with the demons, racking your brains and doing your best to fight until the race is completely annihilated and the world is crushed into a gap. Only the strong smash the weak here, hatred and violence are endless. Thousands Don’t think that your world and hell can find a peaceful coexistence ending, that humans and demons have finally resolved their hatred, and the demons have found a way to live without eating souls. In the end, everyone lives peacefully together, or because of the emergence of humans. With a third party other than the demons, leading us all to unite against the outsider threat…don’t dream – show your blade! Slice its husk and eat its soul!” Gladiu roared.

“…” Ciel looked at his claws, Gladius reorganized the demonic substance, and it turned into a sharp knife.

Hunt the demons.

He walked over to the stranger, and the kid was still looking at him harmlessly.

I am a demon hunter, Ciel stabs the deformed blade of his right arm, and draws it out. The soul is scattered from the wound and becomes the food of Gladius, while the shell of the goblin is eaten by Ciel, forming the basis for him to strengthen the body of the demon.

I was getting familiar with this group. Ciel ran to the smelting table at the other end of the workshop, thinking constantly, this is a group of terrifying monsters. A large number of soul fragments from unknown sources floated here and turned into demons. The little devils are powerful. Under the control of the demon gods, they fight each other and evolve, becoming stronger and stronger, and their ultimate goal is to conquer, invade other living worlds, and plunder a large number of souls to maintain their own existence.

The more powerful the demons, the more things will be consumed when crossing the world, so generally low-end demons can enter our world by tricks, all we have to do is to try to hunt them down and prevent them from harming the public. Find a way to stop the big invasion of these high-level demon organizations.

These things cannot be done by me now. After returning to the real world, I must gather more people and collect more intelligence.

“Gah!” A big flying ghost fluttered its wings and grabbed at Xia Er, interrupting his thoughts.

“Go to hell!” Ciel showed it the blade in his hand, the big ghost bullied the soft and feared the hard, and hurriedly ran away.

He bullied other imps recklessly on the way, taking advantage of being taller, bigger, and having sharper weapons than them, slaughtering the imps along the way, Ciel fell many unfortunate little monsters, demons and souls along the way. are absorbed.

When Ciel climbed to the vicinity of the smelting platform, he was not far from the shape of those big ghosts, and his body became more vigorous and gradually approached the shape of a human.

The flame demon craftsman put the forged charred ring on the rock next to it, stretched out his flame fist, and slowly condensed a golden arc in it, as if preparing to forge the next one.

Ciel hid beside the stone pillar, waiting to see if there was an opportunity.

“To fool it.” Gladius urged, “Say that a demon lord named Kakut of Magma sent you to get the charred ring.”

“Who is that?”

“I made it up, there are so many flame demons, there must be one with this name.”

“Too dangerous.”

“No one knows hell better than I do, just tell it that, and it promises to hand you the charred ring.”

“Then your management is too chaotic, shouldn’t it be assigned by the demon lord?”

“What, you fool, it’s reasonable to be chaotic to the extreme. We forge tens of millions of treasures of this level every day. If all of them have to be dispatched, investigated and researched, and sent to the hands of the demons that should be sent to them, how could it be? It’s not too much trouble, everyone is looking at the configuration, and there has been no trouble, and there is an invisible hand.”

“I believe in your evil.” Ciel waited and watched, Gladius was the high-ranking demon god in hell after all, and Ciel felt that what it said should be reliable.

He emerged from his hiding place, walked to the flame demon who forged the ring, its body sank in the fire, and leaned against the charr, and the heat wave hit the face.

“Where’s the ugly bastard, get out of the way.” It scolded.

“Kakut of Magma…” Ciel was about to speak when suddenly the entire palace shook.

There was a crack somewhere, and there was a loud sound of rocks collapsing. Ciel followed the sound and looked, and the attention of all the big ghosts and little ghosts in the armory was also attracted by the movement.

There was a brief silence, and then it was earth-shattering. The roof of the armory burst open abruptly, and the rocks flew down, killing countless goblins. A giant gaseous hand formed by flames opened the crack, and a terrifying head protruded from it. Fan, he noticed where Charles was.

“Gladius!” is the burning demon guarding the hatching pool!

Chased so soon?

It took a big mouthful, and an astonishing column of flame slammed towards Ciel.

The flames were gorgeous, and the temperature was high, and Ciel couldn’t care less and rushed towards the scorched ring.

Chapter 47 Melting

The flame column blasted by the burning demons was terrifying, and there were countless aftermaths of flames along the way, pouring and burning a large number of imps, their screams resounded everywhere, and the cries and cries were endless, and Ciel could only endure it desperately.

He stretched out his hand to grab the charred ring, but the flame demon craftsman stretched out his flame claws at a faster speed and grabbed it in his hand.

boom!

The flame column burst on the forge, and Ciel felt the stones under his feet heat up rapidly.

“You want to steal something?” The flame craftsman laughed, “How do you defeat the flame, you little devil who has not yet grown up?”

Ciel looked at it nervously, and a chaotic scene couldn’t help but emerge in his mind.

Flame…flame!

Fire is burning.

Confused thoughts rose in Charles’ mind.

Fire brings heat, fire brings light, fire burns things, fire changes the way things exist, it evaporates water, it melts everything, it can fly and dance, it can scream and sing, it can purify everything.

I should also be a flame so I can blend into them…

In an instant, Ciel’s heart was full of swords, lights, and swords. The most effective battle is slashing, and the most powerful weapon is the blade. Go fight and kill!

Go and cut all obstacles in the way!

Is this Gladius exerting influence?

Wait a minute-!

Ciel’s body trembled, don’t give me your psychological hints!

“Then you cheer me up!”

Ciel found that his skin was emitting blue smoke, and it had begun to burn black, as if it had been roasted at a low temperature. If he had sunk in the flame phantom for too long, he would have turned into a little flame demon.

How to beat the flames…

“Die! Little one!” The flame craftsman swallowed the scorched black ring into the heart of his flame, and then released a terrifying flame, sweeping towards the Ciel. He tried his best to jump up and down, looking for suitable cover everywhere, surrounded by stones and furnaces .

More demon craftsmen of similar level found Ciel who was fleeing, and they all gathered around, ready to destroy him together, he was finished!

Fire… fire everywhere!

Ciel is terribly anxious, and the shadow of death hangs over him, he will die, he will be burned to death at any time.

Can’t die, don’t want to die-

But he couldn’t escape, no matter what he did, he couldn’t escape, there were fewer and fewer places for him to stand, he desperately hid, and the more powerful burning demon in the distance threw a flaming projectile again, without hesitation. Bombing the location of Ciel, he saw that a tall furnace was attacked by fire bombs, and the demonic substance on the surface melted and subsided in an instant, turning into a pool of melted black mud.

How much chance would he have of surviving if that kind of flames drenched him?

No way – no way – damn it –

Ciel leaned against the wall at the end of the armory, where there was no way to retreat, and the flame craftsman came towards Ciel

Flames…how to beat a living fire…Charle racked his brains.

“It’s time for us to go!” Ciel urged Gladius, “Take us away!”

“It’s not that easy, don’t be arguing.” Gladiu responded impatiently, “You are responsible for surviving, and I’ll think about the way to go back.”

“Easy to say!” Survive?

How can I survive!
