Chapter 220: Fuck the demon god
Three thick logs formed a simple campfire, the flames weakly crackling and popping.
The air was filled with a mix of fragrant and foul smells.
After lighting the campfire, Amari didn't linger and continued moving towards the mist. "Fire?"
The Abyssal demon creature following Amari didn't rush forward.
His name was [Ice Spike], from the Fifth Abyss.
Just a few days ago, Ice Spike was merely a six-tier Lord, living carefree in the Fifth Abyss.
His usual tasks involved bullying lower-tier demon creatures, getting bullied by higher-tier ones, occasionally checking out the human defense lines, slacking off in some corner, and then heading back to his lair to continue exploiting the lower-tier demons.
Wasn't this life as good as that of a demon god?
Ice Spike would never forget the day his boss called him over, excitedly telling him about a big job.
Ice Spike was deeply moved and then wanted to refuse.
Everyone knew the boss wasn't very bright, but no one dared to say it.
Or rather, those who dared to say it either got eaten by the boss or were sent to duel with Maxen.
In that case, it was better to be eaten by the boss-at least you'd leave a whole corpse.
Every time the boss mentioned a big job, it was a deadly job.
A batch of demon creatures would be born, and a batch would die, the cycle of life and death never ending.
Finally, it was his turn.
In front of the Fifth demon god, Ice Spike had no right to say [no].
At that moment, Ice Spike cursed in his heart, "Fuck the demon god!"
He had long known the Fifth demon god was no good!n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Sending his subordinates to their deaths!
Ice Spike sincerely wished the Fifth demon god would live for 10,000 years, dreaming 24 hours a day!
Back in his lair, Ice Spike, in extreme anger, ate all his subordinates, which calmed him down a bit.
But Ice Spike still couldn't figure out one thing: what kind of demon creature would send such a loyal follower to die!
Must be out of their mind!
Under the Fifth demon god's arrangement, Ice Spike was forcibly elevated by the Abyssal source, becoming a nine-tier Lord.
While gaining immense power, Ice Spike paid a heavy price-only seven days of life left! The power boost happened four days ago, meaning Ice Spike had less than 72 hours left!
According to the boss's introduction, Ice Spike had to find something called [Divine Seed] in the Suture Abyss.
By devouring the [Divine Seed], Ice Spike had a chance to break through to a higher level!
This was his only chance to survive.
Wandering aimlessly in the Suture Abyss for days, Ice Spike found nothing.
He had encountered [Divine Seeds] three times.
But each time, powerful nine-tier Lord demon creatures guarded the [Divine Seeds]!
Those powerful beings were beyond Ice Spike's reach.
They even greedily eyed Ice Spike, wanting to eat him to boost their strength.
Ice Spike fled in terror.
Ice Spike swore that once he broke through to a higher level, he would capture all those nine- tier demon creatures and eat them all.
In short, Ice Spike's only thought at this stage was to survive.
To survive, he had to find the [Divine Seed].
These three actions played out countless times in Ice Spike's mind. Even if the human's shadow hid a nine-tier Lord, Ice Spike had an 80% chance of surviving!
Moreover, Ice Spike felt clearly that the guy in the shadow wasn't a nine-tier Lord, only level
200.
No threat at all!
"Go!"
In an instant, thousands of shadows burst from the ground.
Ice Spike drove all the demon creatures towards the [Divine Seed], hiding himself among
them, using the mist as cover. The human couldn't possibly find him instantly!
"Gotcha!"
From Amari's shadow emerged a young man, while Amari merged into the young man's
shadow.
A faint black armor appeared on the young man, who pointed his staff forward.
"Thunderclap Strike!"
Boom-
Terrifying red lightning tore through the mist, striking Ice Spike precisely!
"Star Pluck!"
"Wind's Reach!"
In an instant, the young man appeared before Ice Spike, the terrifying lightning completely shattering Ice Spike's body. Nine Abyssal Pearls floated, spinning wildly, about to revive Ice
Spike!
"Now!"
Mike instantly reported the positions of the nine Abyssal Pearls.
The next moment, the campfire Amari had set up exploded like a grand firework!
The fire illuminated the mist, casting a giant shadow of Mike!
The shadow's range perfectly enveloped the nine Abyssal Pearls!
Bang-
Bang-
Continuous explosions followed, shattering the Abyssal Pearls one by one!
Even Amari was a bit surprised; this demon creature... was so weak!
Not at all the strength of a nine-tier Lord!
In just 0.5 seconds, he shattered all the Abyssal Pearls, and Mike immediately ended Star
Pluck, returning to his original spot!
The nine-tier demon race Lord, Ice Spike, was dead!
But it wasn't over!
Back at a distance, Mike left Cerberus in place, instantly took out the Magic Conch, opened a
portal, and jumped in.
One-hit kill, then vanish!
"Phew-"
Mike, wearing a mask, shadow armor, and with Amari, returned to Professor Gregory, patting
his chest, still shaken.
"That was close, almost died!"
