Hunter’s Blade - Chapter 38

[Demon Hunter’s Blade Chapter 38]

boom!

Is there a demon beating the palace?

Such a shock!

Even the fire faces on the door swayed and trembled.

“You will become the most useful weapon for the Slaughter King.” One of the demon’s heads opened its mouth wide, and the huge flame ball slowly flew towards the Charr.

He didn’t dare to neglect, and hurriedly fled, the flame ball accelerated abruptly when it flew halfway, and hit the position where he was standing before. The thick stone on the floor was burnt red, swelling and flowing like dough.

There was a fire chasing in the corridor of the palace, and countless powerful flame demons were approaching outside. The projections of those demons in the sea of fire roared angrily. They did not hide their desire to kill at all, and they were able to kill a demon with their own hands. This will be their achievements worth boasting. , Ciel knew that these demons would never let him go.

Everywhere is melting.

The flame demons of different shapes and levels roared loudly, making Ciel uneasy, and at the same time spewing flames at the palace at will, the walls around Ciel melted like mud, in fact, he felt that he was about to catch fire.

But with the sizzling sound, the entire jade kumen is also rapidly melting, and these attached flame faces continue to burn and consume themselves and gradually disappear.

Ciel suspects that these are just clones, not the main body. If there is no supply of stable soul sources, they cannot burn for a long time.

He hurried through the burnt-out treasury, the world tilted before his eyes, the palace foundations melting, and the Ciel felt unbalanced.

There are countless pillars in front of you, each of which is hung with one or two exquisite treasures, of different colors and types, many of which have a very bizarre appearance, perhaps brought by demons from other worlds, Ciel has never seen.

There’s shimmering jeweled armor with buckles on the sides, supposed to be draped over some kind of animal; there’s a sword hanging high in the air, scattering indigo ripples all around, and feeling calm when approached; Is it an illusion…or does it really move by itself?

Ciel retracted his gaze and stroked a piece of skin on the pillar in front of him. This piece of skin had a glass-like appearance and was translucent. The colorful galaxy flowed in the translucent matrix under the skin. A pair of sad eyes were silently weeping on it, and it felt moist and warm to the touch. , completely different from this dry and barren hell world.

It seems to be pleading with me, hoping that I will take it away…

“Can you stop looking? This place is going to collapse, we have to run quickly.”

“What are you talking about taking away!” Ciel complained, “which are really useful.”

“I forgot, as I said, that I built too many palaces and then accumulated too many over the years…”

boom!

It seems that a certain pillar supporting the palace collapsed, and the entire treasury slanted to one side. Ciel was caught off guard, fell under his feet, and fell to the south side of the room along with a large number of scattered treasures. He was buried in several pieces. Beneath the heavy armor, jewels, and certain mechanical devices, he saw silver-white gear-like rings of dwarven craftsmanship, a sword chirping birds, and the long scrolls were dimly painted with multiple eyes of trees on their backs. beast.

“Take us back quickly!” Ciel grabbed a few treasures in a random manner, looked up and was surprised to find that the vault of the treasury was also burning and heating. If it also melted, this place would be harder to run and hide than the Armory Workshop.

“Stand still,” Gradius muttered.

Another huge explosion sounded, and the floor under Ciel collapsed suddenly, and Gladiu cut a huge gap, just for Ciel to fall.

His body fell downward, holding the treasure he had collected in a hurry in his arms.

“Look, we’re going back! Human world! Go away, hell, go away! This broken kid hatchery!” Gladiu cut a long gap directly below them, cutting the crack between the worlds, Ciel naturally fell into a free fall.

“Don’t worry.”

Ciel heard someone talking, why hasn’t he fallen into the crack and returned to reality?

He found that his body was stagnant in the air, and the flames and stones were silent.

Chapter 49 Fire Demon God

After a brief stagnation, time began to flow again, but the space fissure below them was covered by a burst of fire, and it was quickly burned down, burning the space?

Ciel was stunned, his body fell down, and landed heavily on a stone, the pain covering his body.

Seeing the collapse of the palace above, he quickly rolled left and right to avoid the stones falling one after another from above, but he still couldn’t dodge. A stone hit his shoulder.

Fortunately, the bodies of the little devils were constructed to be suitable for combat, and they felt shielded in pain. Ciel didn’t feel anything special, but he couldn’t move.

He opened his mouth, sniffing the burnt smell in the air.

Looking up at the top, the entire upper palace was tilted and gradually sank to one side into the molten magma. The dome above his head was also cracking, and the entire palace was fragmented, allowing him to see beyond the palace.

As far as the eye can see, there are still rock walls, stones, stones, endless stones.

This made Ciel feel strange. He remembered that he was originally located in an underground hatchery. Gladius broke through the underground passage and let him come to the palace connecting the hatching pool. Could the palace itself be located in another, larger underground hole? among?

He thought that the palace was built on an endless dry land, and the demons were fighting in a wide area… but it was not so, it was still underground.

Is the whole hell so barren, surrounded by lava and rocks?

So what is there above all these rocks and caves?

“Thinking so much won’t make your life better.” Gladiu said evilly, “Hell is full of stones, this is the most desolate place, there is nothing, only the little devils keep fighting.”

“It will be too late if you don’t leave.” Ciel lay in the collapsed rubble.

More flames emerged from the gap above, and the flames were raging, forming a long wall.

Open a pair of black eyes from the wall of fire.

“I never thought of reuniting with you this way, Gladius.” The voice reminded Ciel of a meteor streaking across the sky.

“Look, Ciel, this is another Demon God, Ignitz.” Gladiu introduced with little interest.

“You have made friends with mortals.” The flame demon’s voice sounded particularly friendly, “That’s good, tell me about him too, I like you, your taste, and the face of the new world.”

“See you next time, Ignitz.” Gladiu said casually, and Ciel felt that the Demon God of Blade’s Edge was particularly flustered.

“I said we could chat and exchange insights on why you’re in such a hurry to leave.”

“We’ve talked thousands of times, and it’s okay to have one less.”

“Once we clashed with swords and flames, fought over water, over plains, over a clump of flowers, we hated each other so much, but since your exile, the land has lost a tasteful, maverick Demon, without your witty words, hell becomes dull.” Ignitz whispered.

“You’re just jealous of me! You’re jealous of my ability to capture delicious souls in the mortal world. Haha! Exile will not destroy me, it will only make me stronger!”

Gladius pulled out their souls, took the initiative to get out of the demonic shell, degraded the demonic substance back into the original black sediment, and then wrapped the things they collected with their souls, redrawing the space cracks on the ground.

The firewall slowly spreads.

“Come on,” Gladius urged.

Ciel felt that the flow of time had slowed down in the dimness, and only the black eyes in the wall of fire looked at him affectionately.

He felt weightless, fell off a cliff, and immediately woke up from his dream.

Charles found himself in a beautiful palace. Several girls with plump breasts, slender waists, and long chestnut hair reaching to the waist supported him and led him into a hall. These girls were all wearing translucent veils and thin skirts. There are no more clothes above the navel, the ankles ring lightly when walking, all of them have high noses and deep eyes, beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and they look shy when they look at Xia Er.

They were smeared with fragrant honey oil all over their bodies, fresh, flowery and honey-like, and so smooth to the touch that Charles dizzy.

The size of the hall is like a vast arena, enough for a team of knights to practice here. Ciel looked up and saw a high platform in the center, surrounded by thousands of worshippers, all dressed in white.

If you want to get close to the high platform, you have to climb an infinite number of steps.

“Gladius isn’t a friendly companion, is he? He laughs a lot at you, Ciel, and what you do is always stupid to him.” It was the black-eyed voice.

“Where is this place?” Charles was puzzled, “Who are these people?”

“This is the corner of hell, my halls, where worshippers come from other worlds, looking to me for light, wisdom and protection. This is the power of fire, we drive away the darkness and the beasts,” Ignitz explained.

“I want to go back.”

“You don’t want Gladius to stay in your soul, do you? Gladius is a Demon God of Blades, and you are a demon hunter active in an underdeveloped world, you should hunt down demons and keep Gladius alive Your shame.”

“right.”

“Give me Gladius, and I will peel it from your soul, and you will never be bothered by it again, your hunting mission will be carried out, and you will no longer have to live with its sins. Rest assured. , after this, I will send you safely back to the mortal world. There is no need for me to hurt you or devour you, your thin mortal soul is extremely cheap to me.”

Ciel could feel his soul, part of him, part of Gladius, the blade demon robbed his soul, arrogantly lived in Ciel’s body, and wanted to occupy his consciousness.

That’s how things go, since I’m a demon hunter, I should get rid of the blade demon.

“You know I’m a demon hunter?”

“I’m well aware of this. You’re young and junior, but you have big ambitions.”

“…”

“I know what you’re thinking. ‘Gladius is helping me, it’s giving me power’. But it’s just a stopgap, think about it, Ciel, as time goes by, the Demon God of Blades grows, and soon its power It will overwhelm you, your soul will become it, your consciousness will become weaker and weaker, and finally be sealed in a corner by Gladius. And it will be unfettered from now on, and finally lead to the destruction of your world At the end of the day, do you really think you can control Gladius and prevent it from eroding your thinking? Don’t you accept its influence day by day, your nature is constantly changing? This is the only way you can get rid of Gladius If you refuse, I will not be surprised, but you must understand that from now on you will inevitably become the bane of the Blade Demon God, and will be held in the palm of your hand…”

“I……”

“Don’t you become more and more impulsive, under the influence of Gladius, you want to cut anything you see?”

“Yes,” Charles admitted.

“Instead of torturing each other with demons on earth, why don’t you come here and be my guest?” Ignitz invited.

In a trance, he saw the hall disillusioned again. He appeared on a balcony. In front of him was a hot city. There were temples that worshiped flames. There were many ethnic groups on the streets that he could not name. But they can live in harmony, trade, travel, chat and gossip.

“This is a city I’m not worth mentioning-Flame Bottle II. As long as the lives of all parties honor the name of Ignitz, they can live in peace and contentment and enjoy a good life under my protection. There is no respect or harshness here. There is no tyranny in taxation, no matter what profession you are engaged in, all are respectable and respectable, and craftsmen and officials are on an equal footing. Different cultures blend here, and both techniques and machinery are used. Extroverts can come forward to manage, introverts can study at home, and diligent people have Opportunity to realize himself, and the lazy to eat with peace of mind. Strife is arbitrated, interests are protected, and fire does everything justice. People like you deserve happiness here.”

“Is that so…”

“Your world is still a very backward place. It is full of blind and foolish opinions. You don’t know the power released by the collision and splitting of micromass, and you don’t even know how to apply steam and lightning.”

Is this place also hell?

Charles stared blankly at the city. There were even birds and the sun gliding in the sky.

The house is tall and the inhabitants are healthy. It is completely different from the place where he came. The first time he saw an enviable civilization, it was in hell.

“I’d love to.” Charles thought, “You say you can see my thoughts?”

“Your mind will evolve things into things you can understand, and the living soul is clear and full of records. I see your name, your past, the people you love, the people you hate, the people you’re proud of The things you regret, the things you regret, are clear in your soul,” Ignitz explained.

“I’ve decided to hand the Gladio to you.”

“You did the right thing,” Ignitz said.

“After that, can you send me back to the world?”

“It’s a breeze for me.”

“Everything must be very simple for a powerful demon like you.”

“Your opinion is very correct.”

“Then you should know that we are human, our soul is very strong, you read the surface, maybe you know who I am, what I do, what character I have, and you can even guess what I am going to do next Act. But you don’t know what I’m thinking, devil, you can’t read my mind. I was just testing you.”

“…I know, but—you, you, you want—”

Ciel suddenly realized that he was both deaf and blind, with nothing around him.

Before Ignitz could say more, the souls of Ciel and Gladius completely fell into the cracks in space, away from the manipulation of the Flame Demon King.

He leaves hell, sinks into the gap, and sails through the void, enveloping the treasures he finds.

It was a long process, and Gladius carefully manipulated their souls, and Ciel saw the turbulence of the gap beyond the ordinary scale, vast and terrifying, but it was also small compared to the whole transcendence. .

In the end, the soul passed through crack after crack, drifted back into the icy room, and slowly returned to Ciel’s body.

Consciousness and body are connected again.

Hands, feet, brain, Ciel opened his eyes and had a splitting headache.

In the cold and rigid place, there was no ignition in the brazier, it was freezing to death, dirty and outdated, Xia Er thought of the bright and advanced Flame Bottle II, and his thoughts went out.

I really made a big mistake, I should have sold the Gladiu and enjoyed myself there, surrounded by so many beautiful women.

“We are back! We escaped successfully! I violated the ban and went to hell again! Only the masters of the masters, the devils of the devils, and the most terrifying supreme cutter can have fun in hell!” Yell, proud of his abilities.

Charles sat up wearily from the bed, feeling uncomfortable all over. He saw a few treasures scattered on the bed, which he casually grabbed in the chaos.

“You don’t know how annoying it is to cross the cracks in space.” Gladiu continued to boast, “Only a genius like me can play with these complicated laws. Let me give you a preliminary introduction. First of all, between the world and the world…”

“The Fire Lord is willing to help me, strip you out of my soul, and send me back, or live in one of its beautiful cities.”

“…It’s a lie, you certainly won’t believe such a clumsy lie, Ignitz is an impeccable villain…” Glady said dryly.

“It didn’t lie.”

Chapter 50 Treasures

Ciel examines what they have brought back from the palace of hell.

“What did we get?”
