Chapter 301: Ultimate Token
Calderon's fist loosened slightly.
Turning his punch into a slap, Calderon swung his right hand fiercely, leaving afterimages in the air, and struck the second demon god's face.
The second demon god flew out like a cannonball, his aura plummeting, and in the blink of an eye, he was gravely injured!
Calderon snorted, spat on the Archdemon's face, and cursed at the second demon god, "Fuck you! The name Nathan, you are never to mention it again, understand?"
Second demon god: ???
Are you using me as a stepping stone to back down!?
Calderon was still at the tail end of his peak period. Although he didn't throw that punch, in terms of raw power, Calderon was still above the second demon god. With Shadow Nine's help, it seemed quite possible to kill the second demon god on the spot!
The key point was, they wouldn't even need to die to achieve it.
Thinking of this, Calderon's eyes sharpened, and his fist hardened.
Shadow Nine placed his left hand on the hilt of his blade, Maxen gripped Dorakos, and Cedric's sword behind him seemed eager to move.
In an instant, the four top human fighters simultaneously locked onto the second demon god. The second demon god, who had been a mere spectator, suddenly became the main focus. This sudden change in attitude left Mike in awe, thoroughly enjoying the spectacle.
So, the top human fighters were this 'shameless'? Mike felt reassured!
Calderon's gaze fell on various points in the space, all potential escape routes for the second demon god, preemptively blocked by Calderon, forcing him back.
Calderon asked in a deep voice, "How confident are you?"
Shadow Nine first nodded, then shook his head, "100%, but we can't kill him."
Shadow Nine explained, "Cedric is reluctant to draw that sword, and Maxen hasn't broken through to level 990 yet."
The sword in Cedric's case had not been drawn for many years. The power of a sword nurtured for so long was unknown to anyone but Cedric. Using it to kill the second demon god would be a waste.
As for Shadow Nine himself, he needed to maintain peak strength for his journey to the Supreme Abyssal. If he killed the second demon god here, his trip to the Supreme Abyssal would be ruined.
With all these factors combined, the second demon god miraculously got a reprieve.
Lying in the black coffin, the Archdemon let out a bitter smile. He knew he was in this position because he was too strong.
If Calderon really wanted to trade his life for the Archdemon's, from a purely pragmatic standpoint, humanity would gain more than they lost.
Fortunately, humanity didn't disregard emotions.
The second demon god survived because he was too weak. The top human fighters didn't see him as a threat to humanity.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Humanity's true enemy had always been the Supreme Demon God.
"First Battalion, Second Battalion, follow the corps commander to the outskirts of the First
Abyss!"
"Yes, sir!"
Hurricane Corps headquarters.
Bob Emberclad had just finished a battle and was leading his team back to base, with nearly everyone wounded. When the Ultimate Token exploded overhead, Bob Emberclad's hand trembled, causing him to fail in wrapping his bandage properly and tearing his wound open. Even so, he looked up at the sky, muttering in disbelief, "Ultimate Token... it's Master
Calderon's token!"
Urgent alarms interrupted Bob Emberclad's daze.
"We must reach the outskirts of the First Abyss within half an hour!"
"Everyone, assemble and prepare to move out!"
...
Similar scenes played out in all the abysses. Normally, when a Ultimate Token appeared, only the forces associated with the Ultimates needed to act. But there was a small issue here.
Calderon had served in nearly every human corps! This meant that, in a sense, every corps considered themselves associated with Calderon!
While leaving enough forces to defend their bases, they rushed to the assembly point as
quickly as possible!
This led to the exaggerated response from all the human corps.
Above the First Abyss.
The Archdemon still lay in the black coffin, while Calderon looked somewhat fatigued.
Feeling cold, his body trembled slightly.
Maxen took out a cloak and draped it over Calderon. Then, Maxen retrieved the base of the Archdemon's throne from the ruins, a large stone block.
Calderon sat on the stone block, looking out with a frosty expression. The Ultimate Token above his head gradually dissipated.
Meanwhile, waves of elite corps arrived before Calderon, standing outside the First Abyss. Waves of strong fighters arrived, countless powerful auras appearing outside the First Abyss. In plain terms, Chiefs are as common as dirt, and you can't swing a cat without hitting a Lord!
This scene was even grander than any battle Mike had seen before! Sitting on the stone, Calderon looked at the new and old faces before him. He wrapped
himself in the cloak, exhaled a breath of cold air, and muttered to himself.
"Nathan, our human race has finally become strong and prosperous..."
"Can you see this?"
