Chapter 289 Assault on Hell’s Gate - Final
After Daniel had stripped all of the valuables from all of the demons there, he quickly rushed toward the hell gate.
Seeing this, Mammon quickly realized what went wrong.
"Shit... his desired greed is all of my wealth! Stop him! Stop him!!" Mammon roars his command at all of his Hell guard that now is no different than a group of exhibitionists quickly running following Daniel while shaking their trunk around.
"Kyaaaa!" One of the female paladins quickly closes her eyes with her hand but still somehow leaves a gap between her fingers.
Penthesilea: "....."
Christopher: "....."
Daniel, at this moment, ran and laughed like a maniac towards the hell gate, with a large group of butt-naked demons pursuing him, attempting to stop him. Of course, any demon that came near him received a severe blunt trauma to the face, sending them away to who knows where by Hecatonchires.
"Idiot! Why won't you use your power to stop him!" Mammon roared at his Hell guard while still running naked, only having a small rag of cloth that Daniel didn't care about to hide his family jewels.
"We can't, Lord Mammon! We don't know what has happened, but we can't use our power at all!" One of the hell guards answered, distraught at their situation.
"Shit!" Mammon swore. Then he remembered that Lucian told him that his power was sealed by Daniel and can't be unsealed.
Subsequently, he recalled that Hecatonchires serves as Hades' sentinel, overseeing Tartarus, and should have the power to seal other people's power. Now, he's sure that Daniel somehow has a magic that allows him to use the power of Hecatonchires—not just any normal borrowing, but as if he is Hecatonchires himself.
This kind of magic should only belong to the category of ancient magic, as it is impossible for modern magic to achieve something like this. It's almost akin to a miracle of the gods. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/\bin/\
Meanwhile, any demon that dared to impede Daniel on his way to the hell gate got punched into oblivion by Daniel's Hecatonchires avatar.
In just a few minutes, Daniel arrived in front of the hell gate. Now, a gigantic gate of more than 20 meters high made out of human blood, flesh, and bone didn't seem terrifying at all. To Daniel right now, it looked like a gate to unimaginable wealth.
Daniel quickly produced a tablet and punched in some commands, but at this moment, the demon exhibitionist group caught up to him.
"Stop him! Stop Hiiiimmmmmmmm!!" Mammon screamed at his hell guard, and they quickly pounced on Daniel. However, they met with a fierce counter from Daniel's Hecatonchires avatar, which appeared and punched all of those hell guards to kingdom come.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Hell guards and archfiends, adorned in golden armor and bejeweled accessories, were rendered defenseless as the scarabs skillfully stripped them of their wealth. The air resonated with the hum of a trillion tiny tools at work, disassembling, rearranging, and collecting every valuable piece.
Mountainous piles of gold and jewels amassed over eons were swiftly reduced to barren landscapes. The scarabs, armed with micro tools, meticulously combed through underground caverns, extracting precious ores from the very heart of the demonic realm.
They showed no mercy, even to treasures submerged in magma or existing in a liquid state. Utilizing their micro tools, they cooled molten riches, solidifying and then picking them clean.
The scarabs' efficiency was unparalleled, systematically plundering Mammon's once-boundless wealth within a matter of days.
Moving as an unstoppable force, the trillions of scarabs left in their wake a hell realm devoid of its former opulence—a stark testament to the sheer power and resourcefulness of these tiny creations.
Outside the hell realm, Mammon profusely pleaded with Daniel.
"Lord Daniel, please don't! Anything but that! I understand; I'll close the hell gate, I'll bring all of my army back!" Mammon pleaded in a pitiful manner.
"HAHAHAHAHAHHAhAHA!" Daniel responded with maniacal laughter.
Then, another mountain load of wealth emerged along with another wave of the metal scarab swarm, a scene that ripped at Mammon's heart.
"Ahhhhhhhhh, I can't take it anymore! Daniel, either you or I will die today!" Mammon roared in anger, attempting to fight Daniel, but met with a punch from Hecatonchires, rendering Mammon unconscious and silencing his voice.
Meanwhile, Daniel continued to laugh like a cheap supervillain. Unbeknownst to him, this scene was witnessed by Penthesilea, Christopher, and all the people present who followed him out of curiosity about what Daniel did to Mammon that caused him to scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Hey, girl, do you know how many of those things you have in your base right now?" Christopher asked Penthesilea.
"I don't know; we stopped counting after it reached a trillion," Penthesilea answered.
"Why?" inquired Christopher.
"Well, I want some of those little scarabs. They seem very useful."
"Heh... You need to wait for our lord to regain his self-control first if you want to ask that from him," Penthesilea let out a small laugh.
The great plunder continued for more than four days as Mammon's hell realm is so vast, about the size of Earth, and its wealth is beyond imagination.
During this time, any demons or archfiend that tried to obstruct Daniel's great plunder were met with a swift end under the full-power punch of Hecatonchires or became a pile of minced meat under the blade of trillions of metal scarabs.
The metal scarabs, of course, met with some resistance and lost some of their numbers, but in one hour, the losses were replenished by their self-replicating function.
This made the demons in hell realize that they were fighting an unwinnable war and allowed these scarabs to plunder the hellish wealth, knowing that obstructing them would turn them into minced meat.
