287 Devil Emperor

In a distant and parallel universe, the Devil State Universe.

This universe consisted of only devil races with a small part of humanity. The humans here were the lowest form of beings and usually, they were slaves to the devils.

In the palace, where the overlords of this universe, reside.

There were gigantic beings kneeling. They had two horns, with seemingly impeccable battle armors. One look and one could already determine that they could trample any worlds they passed by.

Then, there was a more massive being sitting on the big throne, that almost reached the high ceiling of this palace. It wore a jet-black aura armor with a big wand on its side. It has two red-dot eyes, capable of tearing the heaven and earth by just a look.

It was the current overlord of this universe, Devil Emperor.

This devil had reigned this universe for over a billion years now, and in fact, he was just a bit younger compared to Yanlu Rou and Lan Rou.

"It looks like everything is now set." The Devil Emperor said in a deep voice, "Thanks to the sacrifice of our two generals in the True State, all of the chips have been set."

Though it said thanks, the voice was filled with mockery and sarcasm. It seemed that those generals that had died didn't actually matter for the Devil Emperor.

Well, it was understandable. After all, the Devil Emperor had hundreds of generals of the same power under its banner. Losing one or two didn't actually hurt it a bit.

"Yes." One of the generals in the front kneeling, said, "The two selected generals that were tasked to infiltrate True State Universe has been killed. Their auras were completely gone."

It turned out that though the distance between these two universes were parallel of billions of miles, they still had a connection to the devils out there. And in fact, the devils in the True State Universe could communicate with the devils here without any disturbance.

Just what type of power did they get? Or to say, how massive their resources were to accomplish this deed? Take note, even the Rou Celestial Family didn't have the capability to pull this!

"As a payment for the lives of those who died in the hands of the villains, we will eat that whole universe alive!" The Devil Emperor shouted. The palace trembled as the ground shook, creating cracks all around.

After pausing for a moment, it continued, "After which, we will also eat the other universes. We will rule over this entire multiverse!"

This was devils' ambition. As they were always at the bottom of the rankings, being the weakest, they became the subject of humiliation and bullying of other universes. Some were even trespassing their place and giving the generals a beating. Of course, the emperor was an exception as it still stood at the same floor with the other celestial families.

And now, the plan went smoothly. All they needed to do was to give one final touch and everything would be theirs for grabs.

The generals and soldiers who have heard this couldn't help but be in awe with how intelligent their leader was. Truly, the emperor was the only one capable of leading them into victory! No matter how long it might take, as long as victory was assured, they wouldn't mind waiting and take the bullet.

"Prepare the dimensional gate that connects our universe to the True State. We will leave immediately after." The emperor ordered.

Activating a dimensional gate of a universe-level wasn't easy as it consumed a massive and blood-vomiting amount of resources. Actually, it would consume almost half of the emperor's treasury that it accumulated for over the countless of years.

However, the emperor didn't mind this as the returning result was more tempting than this. In fact, consuming all of its resources looked insignificant compared to ruling another universe!

The soldiers immediately got up from their knees and bowed and moved as fast as they could. Now, all the generals were left in the palace.

No one talked. So, silence permeated the area. The emperor also closed its eyes red-dot eyes, seemingly sleeping.

The generals didn't dare to open a conversation, as they knew where to stand.

This deadly silence continued for almost a day before the emperor spoke once again, "Though our chance of winning is big, there's this remaining fact that I am not 100% confident."

The generals raised their heads in confusion. What was their emperor trying to say?

"Truth be told, I am only 70% confident of our victory. And there's this 30% that the enemy might win instead." The emperor continued.

It turned out that even after all the planning and schemes, the chance of them winning was just more than half. Though the situation looked favorable for the devils, this was only the basic calculation for that as they didn't know what type of cards their enemies hide.

Of course, this didn't mean that the emperor would be afraid. The emperor then said, "So in order to increase our chance of victory, "I think, now is the time to use that."

"!!!" The generals were shook to the core. The emperor was thinking of using that thing.

"But Your Majesty..." One general wanted to say something.

"I made up my mind." The emperor said without leaving any negotiations, "If we want to win for sure, then stop thinking about this. What's more, that thing is created to be used, we couldn't just display it there."

The generals had nothing to say now. The emperor had taken all the variables into consideration. However, they were still feeling indignant about this. After all, once that item was used, it would automatically fade away, leaving now but dust.

"Now, go and prepare our legions." The emperor commanded the generals, "I want them to be battle-ready before the dimension gate opens."

The generals immediately got up and bowed, "As Your Majesty's wish!"

And they eventually left.

The emperor looked up and its eyes flashed with a hint of murderous intent, capable of slaying gods and said, "Finally, our time has come."
