Chapter 183 Command Authority
Those who had not seen the Black Stone with their own eyes would definitely find the scene here unimaginable.
In this space, there was a sky that was always dim, and the entire world seemed to be shrouded in a layer of haze. The air here was like the Abyss, full of the pungent smell of sulfur and flames.
The ground was black. It was a land formed by cooled magma. In addition, there were no traces of plants. The Black Stone Throne stood on a lone island with a sea of red magma surrounding it.
But this was only in the past. Now, a bright ‘sun’ appeared in the Black Stone Space! It was a massive golden vortex. Compared to the dim yellow color of this world, it looked dazzling. It hung high in the sky of this space, and in the center was a deep darkness that could not be seen nor approached. This massive vortex rotated slowly, but it brought with it an unparalleled powerful gravitational force, as though the center of the vortex was a true black hole. All the matter in this world was torn apart, broken down, and then turned into rubble and dust that were sucked into the sky and then entered the vortex.When Roy and Julia entered this place, they saw this scene. Even standing on the ground, Roy felt that he was being pulled upward and could only lower his center of gravity to resist.
Julia had a surprised expression as she looked at the Black Stone Throne standing high at the top of the black mountain in the distance. She had not been here for a long time, so when she first saw the situation of the Black Stone, she found that the erosion had intensified. More than half of the Black Stone Throne, the city of the demon king, had been sucked into the vortex in the sky, and the damage was getting worse.
The two of them did not stay where they were long. After entering this space, they appeared on a wide road paved with black rocks. After exchanging glances, they ran toward the top of the mountain. Due to the Corruption devouring power in the sky, they did not dare to fly and could only run.
“Be careful. Don’t get caught!” Julia said to Roy as she ran. “Also, the flow of time in this space is different from the outside world!”
Hearing this, Roy stole a glance at the spatial channel, which was slowly closing, and asked, “Is it faster or slower than the outside world?”
“It’s faster. Ten minutes here is about one minute outside!” Julia replied.
“About ten times?” Roy sighed. “That’s bad. Can this channel close in time?”“It’s all right!” Julia said. “I brought you here because there are still a large number of demon guards left in the Black Stone Throne. Now that Lord Samael isn’t here, we can command these demon guards. With their help, even if those blood angels chase in, we might be able to deal with them without the angel army.”
The two of them did not say anything else and hurried along the path to the Black Stone Throne. After they had run some distance, six figures rushed into this space just as the spatial channel was about to close completely.
Due to the difference in the flow of time, although the six blood angels seemed to have rushed inside less than three seconds behind Roy and Julia, there was about half a minute between them when they arrived in this space. Roy and Julia had already run far away, so the blood angels could not intercept them immediately after rushing in.
After entering this space, the six blood angels were all stunned when they saw the scene in the sky.
Perhaps most angels had heard of the existence of the Black Stone, but there were very few angels who could truly enter the Black Stone. This extremely oppressive world was like a real Hell, making the blood angels very uncomfortable.
However, they were only stunned for a moment. After all, after making the Blood Oath, they were already determined to die, so even if they came to the demons’ headquarters, it was the same for them. After returning to their senses, they noticed the figures of Roy and Julia running ahead and subconsciously wanted to fly up and chase after them.
But the moment they flew up, they found that their bodies were being sucked up uncontrollably, so they could only flap their wings and fall back to the ground.
The six blood angels looked unwillingly at the massive vortex in the sky, but they could only follow on foot.
The path to the top of the mountain was not too long. Soon, Roy and Julia arrived in front of the Black Stone Throne. It was a huge city in the typical demonic style, and black was the main color of this city. The entire city gave off a ghostly feeling. It had solid city walls that were tens of meters thick, and the city walls were full of fierce, sharp sculptures that looked like demon horns. These densely-packed sharp sculptures pierced into the sky like a sword mountain, full of the meaning of rebellion.
A thick, fifteen-meter-tall gate appeared in front of Roy and Julia. On the gate was a three-dimensional pattern of a demon skull, and its dark eyes seemed to stare at everyone that approached the gate.
But Julia did not even look at it. She walked forward, inserted her longsword into the skeleton’s mouth, and injected magic power into it.
First came a loud click, then a loud rumbling sound, and the city gate slowly opened!
Before the gate fully opened, Roy and Julia rushed in through the gap.
After entering the gate, Roy saw a large number of demons holding weapons. These demons stared at Roy and Julia rushing in with their scarlet eyes, seemingly confirming whether or not they were intruders.
As Julia had said, there were many demons in the Black Stone Throne. Roy took a casual glance around and could not see any low-rank demons at all. The guards here were almost all middle-rank demons. Each of them looked strong and powerful, and even the weapons in their hands looked very powerful.
It seemed that the guards in the Black Stone Throne were all elites among demons…
“I am a personal guard of His Majesty Samael, the fallen angel Julia!” Julia drew her longsword and stabbed it into the ground. She shouted at the demon guards present, “Now, I’ll take over all the guards for the time being! Prepare to meet the invaders from Heaven!”
Logically speaking, when Samael left, he had taken away almost all the high-rank demons and demon leaders of the Black Stone Throne, so after Julia returned, she had the authority to command them. But strangely, after hearing Julia’s loud shout, these demon guards looked at her indifferently.
It was not that they were actually indifferent. The scarlet light in the eyes of these demons was flickering, but none of them moved in response to Julia’s command.
“Damn it! Are you deaf?!” Julia was taken aback for a moment before she flew into a rage out of humiliation. She drew her longsword from the ground and placed it on the neck of the demon closest to her. “Did you hear what I said?!”
The sword on the demon guard’s neck did not fluster him at all. He only said, “Your Excellency, you don’t have the authority to command in this city…”.
“Huh? Why?” Julia wanted to ask, but Roy stopped her.
“Don’t panic!” Roy whispered. “Let’s go in a little. It doesn’t matter if they won’t listen to your command. I don’t believe that they’ll remain indifferent when those blood angels rush in!”
Julia thought that it was indeed true, so she stopped talking and joined the group of demons with Roy. Behind them, the six blood angels were approaching the gate. The gate was still open, so they immediately saw the dense group of demon guards behind the gate. They could not help but stop and hesitate a little. But then they saw Roy and Julia, who had mixed into the crowd and were looking at them.
Under the power of the Blood Oath, the blood in the blood angels began to boil again, constantly reminding them that their revenge targets were right in front of them. Therefore, the blood angels no longer cared so much and roared angrily as they charged into the gate with their weapons!
As a result, as soon as they entered the gate, the demon guards immediately moved, as though some kind of stress mechanism had triggered them. They also let out low roars and rushed toward the blood angels with their weapons.
The battle between angels and demons unfolded in an instant. The six blood angels had their backs to each other, forming a small circle, as they fought against the demons. They continuously waved the angelic swords in their hands and slashed the demons.
Purple blood splattered into the air. It was naturally impossible for middle-rank demons to be the opponents of these blood angels, but there were too many of them. When the demons in front fell, the demons behind immediately filled up the gap, and even more demon guards poured out from the depths of the castle…
Previously, Roy was in the disadvantageous situation of being outnumbered, but he did not expect the situation to reverse so quickly, and now the blood angels were outnumbered.
Roy and Julia hid behind, allowing the demon guards to consume the blood angels’ magic power. But they did not just look on and do nothing. Roy raised Frostmourne, and an immense amount of magic power surged out, condensing a huge ice block weighing tens of tons above the city. Then he swung his sword, and the ice block went smashing toward the middle of the blood angels.
Of course, this huge ice meteorite could not hide from the blood angels, but they were powerless to stop it. When they saw the ice meteorite falling, they only had time to warn their companions to be careful before scattering
Boom!!!
Although the ice meteorite had not been that high up, it still brought tremendous force when it smashed down. Not only did an enormous pit appear on the ground, but the huge vibrations caused the ground to tremble a few times.
However, the purpose of this ice meteorite was not to injure these enemies but to separate the blood angels. With such a huge obstacle, the blood angels could no longer help their companions and could only fight separately. Under the siege of so many demon guards, they were at ease in the beginning, but it quickly became difficult. If they were not careful, the demon guards would cut them.
In a short time, the six blood angels were injured one after another. Although their injuries were not fatal, their blood was flowing out.
The blood angels also realized that they should not continue wasting time like this, so one of the blood angels launched a surprise attack at Roy. He ignored the siege of the surrounding demons, spread his wings, and charged straight at Roy! However, a black ice wall blocked him halfway! Roy had been guarding against this move!
The battle at the city gate was fierce. And in the depths of the castle, with the vibration caused by the ice meteorite, bubbles suddenly started appearing on the surface of a huge magma pool. These bubbles burst again and again, from the small amount at the beginning to becoming more and more concentrated, as though something was about to rise from the magma pool…
