Chapter 414 - The Battle Had Ended, Goodbye, Enemies
Chapter 414: The Battle Had Ended, Goodbye, Enemies
When the golden figure appeared in the sky above Devil Flame City, the huge projection of Gajero began to gradually turn illusory. Gajero’s eyes were filled with fear and shock.
What he was afraid of was the characteristics of that golden figure. It was the legendary Protoss Race!
What was even more shocking was that Vincent had summoned Divine Might!
The higher the level of a creature, the more it understood how terrifying the Protoss Race was. Gajero, who was so powerful that he had invaded more than half of the Black Hole world, naturally understood the terror of the Protoss race. At the same time, he also knew that the Protoss would not associate themselves with any race. They would only make a deal after another as if they were joking.
And in those deals with the Protoss, there was usually no winner. Any creature could only obtain a short-term benefit from the Protoss’s deal. After that, they would either be cheated to death by the Protoss’s conditions, or they would be targeted by the Protoss to pay an even more terrifying price!
A trade that directly gave a low-level creature the ability to summon Divine Might was something that Gajero had never heard of. However, Gajero believed that this low-level creature in front of him did not actually obtain the ability of Divine Might through a deal with the Protoss.
Therefore, there was only one possibility in the current situation. Vincent was still in the state of trading with the Protoss. Therefore, he could use Divine Might without attracting the attention of the Protoss!
Just as the giant projection of Gajero was deep in thought, Vincent slowly raised the weapon in his hand and pointed at Gajero. He said in a deep voice, “Just wait! One day, I will rush in front of you and cut off your head with my own hands!”
As soon as he said that, the golden figure behind Vincent raised an arm and pointed at the projection of Gajero in the air at the same time.
“Bang!”
The huge face that appeared in the sky instantly dissipated like a brilliant firework. The majestic life force that had been absorbed earlier also fell back down into Devil Flame City like rain. They soon returned to the bodies of all the residents of Devil Flame City.
However, at that moment, everyone had forgotten to cheer and celebrate their new lives. They were all staring at Vincent’s back in the sky in a daze.
With a simple raise of his hand and a simple threat, the projection of Gajero instantly collapsed. Even some of the radical Dark Elves, who believed in Gajero because of his strength, could not help but feel admiration for Vincent. At the same time, they began to doubt whether Gajero was as powerful as they had imagined.
“Boom!”
When the fireworks in the sky dissipated, a violent explosion sounded from the ground once again. All the residents in the city looked toward the sound. The sound seemed to have come from the temple.
The temple that was used to worship Gajero had actually exploded from the inside and was reduced to ruins.
A few residents who were gathered outside the temple happened to see many clergies escorting High Priest David out of the temple in a panic. They even muttered, “What happened? Is it the end of the world? Why did the idol of our lord shatter by itself? Why did our lord destroy his own temple?”
All the civilians who heard the clergy’s crazy shouts were suddenly enlightened. It seemed that not only was Gajero defeated, but he was also afraid of Vincent’s strength. That was why he destroyed the idol of himself voluntarily. He had given up on Devil Flame City.
At that moment, Gajero’s high and mighty mysteriousness had disappeared. At the same time, Vincent’s status was gradually rising in everyone’s hearts. Some even saw him as a god and savior of Devil Flame City.
Andre, who was currently entangled with Horace and Harson, could not help but turn pale with fright when he saw that the array he had summoned was once again broken. This was already the strongest ability he could use after becoming an apostle. He clearly knew that once the blood sacrifice array was formed, it could summon a projection from Gajero’s main body. However, even if Gajero personally came to Devil Flame City, he was still not a match for Vincent!
“How is this possible? How can Gajero lose? The God that I believe in should be the strongest!”
Andre was in the air as he roared crazily.
Meanwhile, Horace and Harson, who kept appearing and disappearing beside him, did not say a word. They only focused on attacking him. At the same time, because of Vincent’s great victory, the two assassins could feel their blood boiling, causing their attacks to become even faster and fiercer.
Andre was not in the mood to fight anymore. He slowly fell into a disadvantageous position in front of Horace and Harson. At that moment, he only wanted to escape from Devil Flame City, the place where Vincent was. He wanted to escape to the Imperial City guarded by the demon oracles and seek help and protection there!
Andre muttered and sighed, “Yes, yes, yes! I want to go to the Imperial City. No matter how strong Vincent is, he will never enter the Imperial City. I still have enough Origin Divine Earth. I can totally exchange it for the chance to live in the Imperial City!”
He then turned around and flew out of the city. At that moment, he no longer cared about the attacks of Horace and Harson behind him. Even if their daggers could cause harm to him, he could still use the powerful recovery ability of his demon body to resist those injuries.
As long as he escaped from Devil Flame City, he would be able to find a chance to survive!
Vincent, who had dispelled the projection of Gajero, naturally would not forget the culprit behind all of this. When he discovered that Andre wanted to escape, he immediately turned around and flew down from the sky. He carried his terrifying divine might, raised his weapon, and slashed toward Andre.
Andre felt a bone-chilling killing intent coming from behind him. His eyes were filled with terror as he sped up his escape. At that moment, he did not even have the courage to retaliate because even the phantom of Gajero was defeated by that golden figure. Therefore, no matter how many magic spells Andre used from the demon world, it was unlikely to have any effect on Vincent. He might as well take advantage of the Demon Race’s body to escape from Devil Flame City as soon as possible.
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, the ground in Devil Flame City trembled, causing the residents who had just breathed a sigh of relief to once again be on tenterhooks. They did not dare to imagine that after experiencing a near-death ordeal, an earthquake had suddenly occurred in the city.
However, before everyone could react, the ruins that originally belonged to the entrance of Hell’s Rose suddenly erupted with white light. An incomparably huge spear pierced through the soil and straight toward Andre, who was in the sky.
Andre looked at the white spear that was about to fly in front of him. He realized that if he continued to charge forward, he would definitely be pierced by this terrifying spear. Hence, he quickly stopped and watched as the spear brushed past his head.
Immediately after that, the soil in the ruins of Hell’s Rose flew into the sky and scattered toward the surrounding streets. Amidst the soil that filled the sky, a golden light stood out. It flew straight into the air and blocked Andre.
When the golden light retreated, Andre saw Avril, who was nearly three meters tall, holding a crystal spear in her hand. Her entire body was covered in golden light like a piece of armor. She was staring at him with murderous intent!
Andre had quite an impression of this outsider in front of him. This was because Avril was beautiful and was also one of the weakest members of Vincent’s team. However, what surprised Andre was that Avril had raised her strength to become a level 30 creature. Moreover, with her physique that could conquer strength and speed, Andre had no choice but to be wary of Avril’s explosive power.
Avril looked at Andre and said coldly, “You will definitely not escape today!”
She then raised her spear and stabbed forward.
In Andre’s eyes, Avril had only stabbed once. However, when the tip of the spear landed in front of him, thousands of crystal spears had already appeared in the sky. Moreover, each spear carried a high-spirited battle intent and endless power!
Andre was unable to determine whether the countless spears in front of him were real or an illusion, but his instincts told him that he had to dodge all the attacks, or else he would definitely suffer heavy injuries!
Just as Andre began to retreat rapidly, Vincent had already arrived behind him from the sky. He raised his Return Journey of the Dead high. Countless flames and battle intent began to condense. At the same time, under the blessing of the Divine Might, Vincent’s weapon instantly transformed into a huge golden blade that was dozens of meters long. It carried an aura that could destroy the heavens and earth. He slashed it straight toward Andre.
The blade struck Andre’s neck, slicing through his chest and lower abdomen. It split his body diagonally from above his thigh.
Andre, who was suddenly cut into two, instantly stopped. His body began to slowly separate, and his eyes were filled with despair. This was because Vincent’s blade earlier had struck his demon core!
After killing Jessica, Vincent had gained some experience in finding the demon core. He knew that both Jessica and Andre would definitely try to store their demon core in the best position possible after becoming demons.
Jessica chose the head that was the easiest to protect. However, it was also very easy for others to find out which was why Jessica had died in Vincent’s hands earlier.
However, Andre chose to do the opposite. He placed his demon core at his kidney. Although it was easier for others to attack, it was hidden in the most inconspicuous area of his body.
Vincent had stabbed Andre’s chest several times before, but he could not find the location of the demon core. Andre did not show any strange expression when Vincent found out that Jessica kept her demon core in her head. This meant that Andre’s method of hiding the demon’s core must be different from Jessica’s.
Andre’s demon’s core must be in an organ in his lower abdomen!
Thus, Vincent slashed downward along his neck and successfully found Andre’s demon core!
After his demon core was destroyed, his body disintegrated into a large amount of demonic aura, and slowly condensed into a vortex in the air. A huge and terrifying single eye slowly appeared in the vortex. It stared at Vincent in horror and hatred.
Vincent casually took out the Cup of Fate and said to Andre in a deep voice, “Alright, time to die!”
He then waved his blade and shattered the Demon Race’s core. He then used the Cup of Fate’s function to store all the demonic aura into the cup, disintegrating it into the purest psionic power.
“I’m not reconciled!”
When the last wisp of demonic aura disappeared from the Cup of Fate, Andre’s unreconciled cry was suddenly heard. However, the cry slowly disappeared, causing the entire Devil Flame City to return to complete peace.
Just as Vincent felt a large amount of psionic power returning to his body, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be many stars-like liquids in the Cup of Fate. These liquids were on Andre’s body previously. However, it had not been digested along with the demonic aura. This meant that the composition of the liquid had nothing to do with psionic power, and the liquid’s rank probably exceeded the limit of the Cup of Fate’s ability to disintegrate.
Vincent was naturally familiar with this liquid. It was the Origin Divine Earth that Andre had stolen from Hell’s Rose!
If he were to hide this Origin Divine Earth, it would definitely be a rare treasure. However, Vincent ultimately decided to return it back to the elves!
“This is the evidence I’ve found on Andre. He is the main culprit for stealing the Origin Divine Earth for the Demons!” shouted Vincent loudly to all the residents in the city.
He then slowly tilted the Cup of Fate in his hand and scattered the Origin Divine Earth bit by bit onto the ground.
When the Origin Divine Earth fell from the sky, every elf could not help but stand solemnly, their faces full of devotion. Some of them even began to close their eyes and started to chant non-stop.
This was the Origin Divine Earth. It was a gift from the world to the elves. Every elf could clearly determine the aura of the Origin Divine Earth. Therefore, they could confirm that what Vincent said was all true.
Although Andre had died and disappeared, the evidence of his crime of stealing the Origin Divine Earth was irrefutable!
“What bullsh*t City Lord, he is a sinner of the Elf Race and a lackey of the Demon Race!”
“Gajero is also a b*stard, deceiving our faith and even trying to destroy our world!”
“You’re right, everyone who makes us believe in Gajero deserves to die!”
The residents of Devil Flame City began to curse Gajero with incomparable hatred. At the same time, they shifted their anger onto the clergy who had escaped from the temple. The first one to bear the brunt was the current High Priest, David!
After being severely injured by Vincent, David rolled back to the temple with great difficulty. He received the most efficient and fastest treatment. His injuries had mostly healed, but he did not expect the world to change so quickly. A second ago, he was still the revered High Priest of the temple. However, in the blink of an eye, he had become the lackey of Gajero and had become the most hated Dark Elf in the world.
David looked at the Dark Elves who were scolding him. He could not help but feel angry. He frowned and shouted, “Hey, please show some respect. The beliefs of the Dark Elves are all chosen freely. The temple only provides a place for you to worship the gods. It has never tempted any elves or forced them to choose a certain belief!”
However, the furious residents could not be reasonable. After hearing David’s explanation, they treated him as a traitor who still supported Gajero. The abuse was endless. Some of them even rolled up their sleeves in anger. They were ready to fight David.
However, the Dark Elves surrounding David were all ordinary residents of Devil Flame City. How could they be a match for David in terms of strength? David held a brand-new magic staff and swept it in front of him with all his might. He immediately struck a few ordinary residents who wanted to punch him. They laid on the ground and spat out blood. They were all unconscious in an instant.
The mad residents saw David committing murder on the street and could not help but denounce him angrily, “You, you still dare to hit people? You still dare to resist for Gajero?”
David ignored them completely. He narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, “You bunch of blind trash. You have become someone else’s lackeys and you don’t even know it. If anyone dares to say those dirty words to me again, I will kill all of you!”
The ordinary Dark Elves who had no strength or were weak could not help but calm down after hearing David’s threat. They all lowered their heads in fear and did not dare to quarrel with David again.
After seeing that everyone had finally calmed down, David turned to the clergy behind him and said, “All the soldiers are gathered at the North City Gate. We will leave Devil Flame City from the South City Gate immediately and go to the Imperial City to look for reinforcements!”
“Yes!”
The clergy replied in unison. They were prepared to escort David away.
Everyone knew what happened to Andre in the air, and after his death, his reputation was completely ruined. David also realized that Devil Flame City would eventually belong to Dave and Vincent. If he continued to stay there, he would definitely be suppressed. Therefore, he had to take advantage of the chaos to leave Devil Flame City!
However, just as David and the others were about to walk toward the South City Gate, an invisible door suddenly appeared in the middle of the street. Dave and Catherine walked out of thin air into the street and blocked David and the others.
Dave said with a cold gaze, “David, you must leave your life behind today!”
David looked at Dave with a wary expression. He did not accept the challenge. Instead, he said to the others, “Ignore him for now, let’s retreat back to the street and leave through the East City Gate!”
The clergy followed David’s instructions and were prepared to turn around and leave. However, at that moment, an invisible door had also appeared behind them.
Ebenezer and Daniel walked out. They waved their arms that had turned into sharp blades and smiled at everyone. However, their eyes were filled with coldness.
David was in a dilemma. However, the individual that he was most worried about was Vincent, who had just killed Andre. If he wanted to leave before Vincent arrived, he had to choose a direction to break out of the encirclement.
Ebenezer and Daniel were both foreign races, and because of Vincent’s existence, David had developed a genuine fear of foreign races. Therefore, he once again turned his gaze to Dave, whom he had never liked since he was young.
David looked at Dave and asked with disdain, “What, do you want to stall and wait for Vincent to come and kill me?”
This was because he was really worried that Dave was trying to stall for time and wait for Vincent’s arrival. Therefore, he had to do his best to anger Dave and force him to attack. This way, he could defeat Dave in the shortest time possible and break out of the encirclement.
Dave seemed to have fallen into David’s trap. He took out the knife from his storage ring and pointed the blade at David. He said coldly, “Don’t think too highly of yourself. You are not worthy of letting Vincent attack you personally, so your opponent today is only me!”
