Chapter 21 Creation from Hell
Yes, there is absolutely no mistaking it. This unique mark can only be caused by wheels supported by crawler tracks, but how could there be such a thing in this world?
"What does that big monster they ride look like? Does it have any characteristics?"
"Well, black, long, spiky, buzzing, no legs, looks like It's made of the thing you took, it's flashing red, it's very fast, and it has a very scary scream."
This description...
"You're injured. Stay here and don't run around. I'll go see what's going on."
After Nohir comforted Mumu, he chased after the tracked vehicle. The traces made him feel uneasy, and the characteristics of the creatures described by Mumu reminded him of his old friends in the game.
Mind Flayer.
“Although the description is very similar, it is unlikely to be a mind flayer. The nearest mind flayer colony is under the Tower of the Moon, which is more than 50 kilometers away from here.”
It is possible to cross such a large distance only by teleporting through the Nautilus Winding Path. However, there is no place to hide such a large target, and according to the image of the vehicle described by Mu Mu, it does not conform to the bio-industrial characteristics of the Mind Flayer Empire. , but more like the Hellfire Soul Technology of the Nine Hells.
But if it was really the hell chariot of Baator Hell, how did they get here by bypassing the main fortress of the Lord of the Morning?
Is it the Dawn Fortress!
"Calm down and think about it, the situation may not be that bad."
Nohill shook his head to reject this terrible possibility.
“Mumu only saw three creatures and one chariot, which means that this is probably just a small team of devils that bypassed the Dawn Fortress, broke away from the large army of devils, and scattered to capture the fleeing refugees.”< br>
"Although it is still very troublesome for me, if there are only three people, I should be able to deal with it."
"The only thing I don't know now is what the three creatures on the chariot are. And whether the chariot is equipped with any dangerous weapons."
"Let's take off for reconnaissance first."
The traces of the hell chariot are very easy to detect. Those who escaped seemed to want to. By hiding in the forest and letting the trees block the chariot's progress, the devil's hell chariot is very flexible, but the density of the surrounding forest is not enough to stop them.
Looking down from the sky, several trees would fall down almost every distance. Flying along this trail, Nohill saw the fleeing refugees only two minutes later.
And the hell chariot chasing after them.
“Damn it, is the technology of Nine Prisons so advanced?”
Nohir happened to catch a glimpse of the description of this kind of tank when he was looking up information, but he didn’t remember the details. In detail, the only thing he knew was that the fuel of this chariot was the soul. In fact, it seemed that the fuel of any hell machine was the soul, so this knowledge was useless in the current situation.
When the chariot became visible to the naked eye, Nohir realized the most distinctive feature of this hellish creation.
It is not so much a car as it is a land boat.
"A strange design."
Nohir also saw the refugees. Only five or six of them are still running away. I don't know why they didn't choose to disperse and run away. It was obviously more organic...
Suddenly, among the refugees who were still running away, one person broke away from the others and ran wildly in the other direction.
Nohir thought he finally had a smart man.
"Peng!"
The two ballistae suddenly opened fire, and a capture net accurately caught the person at the back of the refugee team, and then quickly pulled him into the hole opened in front of the car body, and the refugee who broke away from the team...< br>
“Ahhhh!!!”
An iron spear covered with barbs pierced the man directly. Amidst the devil’s surprised laughter, the chariot passed him quickly. .
The poor guy was dragged awkwardly by the winch, scraping off a layer of flesh on the rugged ground and the hull covered with sharp blades.
Then a purple devil with more than a dozen snake-like tentacles on his face and wearing simple armor lifted him up and spoke to the tortured refugee. After a few words, he threw it directly into the pool behind the car body.
The man struggled to stretch out his hand, but then the arm was melted at a speed visible to the naked eye.
“…fuck!”
And in the forest.
A slender beast made of black and red hell steel is rampaging through the dense forest. The entire chariot is more like a narrow sailboat than a car, with a steel track as a wheel. , the whole body is covered with sharp blades, and there are four ballistae on each side, each loaded with nets and stabbing spears. Three steel masts stood upright on the chariot. The skin of an unknown creature was made into sails. There were more than a dozen red-glowing holes on both sides of the chariot. Every time it increased speed, There is blazing fire shooting out of the hole!
"Boom!!"
The steel land sailboat dodged flexibly in the woods, but as they went deeper into the forest, the denser and denser trees made their dodge more difficult, and from time to time they bumped into giant trees. The superior cut it off,
"Catch these annoying reptiles! After catching two more, we will go back! The chariot is already full!"
At this time, above the chariot There are three devils of the same type, one of which is in the middle. Their armors are similar, but this devil's weapon is two battle axes, which is obviously different from the other devils.
The devil who seemed to be the leader of the team said like giving orders to a devil in front of him.
"Don't talk to me like that! Yika! These souls are dedicated to Master Zariel! But we must also make some extra money!"
A devil at the front said angrily The devil who gave the order said, and at this moment he suddenly saw another person separated from the refugees.
"Hahaha, the extra money is here!"
He suddenly pulled down the control lever of the ballista, and a net and a stabbing spear were shot out at the same time. The devil didn't care about the one being After catching the prey in the net, he walked directly to the chariot and picked up the prey that was about to die.
“Give me your soul! If you agree, I will make you temporarily immortal! If you refuse, I will throw you into the fuel tank of the chariot and let your soul turn to ashes in the wail! ”
"Uh-heh, uh...go...die!"
These words directly angered the devil. He ripped off the iron spear from the man's body and threw him directly into the underworld behind him. In the water of the river.
This device will turn the souls of those who invest it into energy to replenish the energy consumption of the chariot, and the souls inside will burn in a very slow and painful way.
Ika snorted disdainfully. This guy Babu has no devil's wisdom at all. Souls taken by force through this method are the most despised by devils. But this guy not only doesn't take it seriously, but even more. It got worse.
"That's enough, bastard! Stop delaying us! This cat and mouse game has to come to an end, catch one more, kill the rest and throw them into the fuel bunker!"
"You!"
The demon named Babu grabbed the long-handled knife beside him. In his opinion, the soul reserve of the fuel pool is very sufficient, and the remaining people can be used as their labor snacks. , But this bastard Yika, relying on himself to be favored by adults, must even deprive him of this little profit! Obviously he is one of these souls!
"If you dare to move again, I will let you be demoted to a lemure!"
"You have no such right!"
Both demons drew their weapons , the tentacles on his face were fluttering, looking extremely ferocious, as if he would disembowel the other person as soon as he said a disagreement!
The remaining devil smiled sinisterly while leaning on his weapon as if he was just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
He was not worried about accidents. Although the situation seemed tense, each of them knew in their hearts that no one could hit anyone. After all, this was an order given by Duke Zarrell when he was marching.
They are just showing off to each other now. After all, if they really violate military orders, none of them can afford the consequences.
Hell is a place with strict hierarchies. High-level devils have absolute dominance over low-level devils. They can freely control the promotion of low-level devils, and can also control the promotion of low-level devils when they make even the slightest mistake. Demotes them for minor offenses.
Under this absolute dominance, there is an absolute order, the devil's order. No matter how much indignation they have in their hearts, they cannot express it and can only live among the same kind or low-level slaves. Seeking an outlet.
Seeing the two demons standing in a stalemate, the one at the back suddenly let out a hearty laugh.
"Hahaha, okay, okay, Yika, please forgive Babu. This guy's achievements have not been refreshed for too long. If he doesn't show some results, I'm afraid you don't need to take action against him. They will all be reduced to evil spirits.”
“Of course I know how capable this waste is!”
He took back his battle ax and looked at this bluffing man with contempt. Scum.
"You shouldn't have been promoted to this level at all. You shouldn't even have become a devil. Look at your devil-like stupidity! Stiff brain! Don't you* know that we were delayed here? The longer the time passes, the slower our merits will be calculated! ”
Then it's your merit that he *! You bastard, are you going to share the merits with me?
"Of course I fucking know..."
"Death!!"
With a flash of cold light and a rapid roar, the two beard demons were arguing. He didn't even notice what happened, and was cut in half. The bearded demon at the rear looked at the demonic figure whizzing towards him, and his laughing eyes were overwhelmed by fear for an instant. He was almost instinctive He generally raised the weapon in his hand to block this attack.
Then it was directly shattered by this violent slash!
