Levin felt a frenzy from Sains. It was a very strange feeling. Originally, he still thought that this facial paralysis girl had permanently lacked the emotions that humans should have.
That fervent gaze of worship overturned Raven's inherent perception of Sains.
Sains didn't say another word, but every glint in his eyes was saying he'd go through fire and water for Raven, as if saying "Command me!", "Who do you want me to chop? Him? Her? Or it?"
This feeling is like a high-cold beautiful cat alien suddenly turning into a sticky and tired dog alien.
Lei Wen is very unaccustomed.
The treasure is in hand, it's time to withdraw. The things obtained cannot be counted here. After all, let the Holy Warriors know that they fought hard on top, but except for "eradicating evil", nothing else was gained, while Raven took the lead in the palace below, which is not good.
"Let's go!" After confirming they hadn't left anything good behind, Raven swiftly led Saiens away.
After leaving the treasure house, a small accident occurred.
Melissa is fighting two Chain Golems outside the treasury.
As a demon who lost his backing after Gaggs' fall, he had originally agreed to find Gaggs' treasure and use it as capital to offer to Mammon, the demon king of the third layer of the nine-layered hell, in exchange for Mammon's protection.
Melissa was forced to pledge her allegiance to Raven and also had a change of heart.
The two Chain Devils who had unexpectedly tracked her down here sensed Melissa's change in allegiance. Colleagues could be enemies, let alone devils with different allegiances?
Chain devils are fiendish creatures that retain a humanoid form, their most distinctive feature being the dozens of metal chains wrapped around their limbs which they can manipulate at will to attack their enemies.
When Raven arrived, Melissa was at a complete disadvantage. Originally, the Chain Demon was slightly weaker than the Desire Demon, but first of all, it was two against one, and secondly, the Desire Demon's combat style was very similar to that of the Fallen Angel, requiring a large space for her to maneuver and utilize her high agility advantage.
This is the underground palace, and although the space near the gate of the treasure house is not small, it is still too small for flying soldiers.
On the other hand, the Chain Devil, which excels at close-range combat over short distances, has the upper hand. Looking at those two Chain Devils with their eyes glowing red and their furious expressions, if Raven is even a little late, Melissa, the future Demon Queen, will be defeated and forced to retreat.
A cross-shaped vein bulged on Raven's forehead, and suddenly his eyes caught a glimpse of the eager Sains.
"Up! To live!"
What would happen if a legendary Phantom Sword Saint were to duel two Chain Mages who are only level 28?
One word: seconds!
After countless flashes of sword light had passed by. At the same time, all four limbs and chains were cut off, leaving only the miserable chain demon struggling on the ground.
"Thank you, Master!" The demoness Melissa bowed her head down.
"I have a task for you to do, and it just so happens that these two are yours now." Under Melissa's puzzled gaze, Raven drew out the Conqueror's Sword. Under the puzzled gazes of the two women, Raven used this serrated, ornate shortsword to pin the Chain Devil to the ground like a voodoo doll.
After one sword passed through. System prompt:
"You obtained the Devil's Blood of Chain Magic and 2% Soul Power. You launched [Conqueror's Sword] special effect [Conquest] on Chain Magic... Willpower check succeeded, consuming 56 points of Soul Energy to launch a willpower strike with a difficulty coefficient of 35 on Chain Magic. Willpower check failed, Chain Magic suffered 56 points of damage."
Leiwen blinked his eyes.
Failed unexpectedly?
Levin stabbed again, and this time the Chain Devil was hung... The Chain Devil died very strangely. It wasn't the disgusting magical energy that ordinary devils turn into when they die, but rather it completely disappeared. As if the Chain Devil was just a projection of a non-existent main plane.
Only Raven knows where the Chain Devil went. Because just now, the system prompted that Raven's 【Conqueror's Sword】 received 28 points of soul energy.
If I'm not mistaken, Raven should have intercepted the devil's soul that was supposed to be returned from the ninth layer of hell.
The two women didn't know what Raven was doing, anyway they stared at Raven.
Another Chain Devil looked at its companion's bizarre death and suddenly fell into a panic, begging in a hoarse voice: "Don't kill me, I surrender!"
Lei Wen doesn't care, continues to stir up trouble.
One sword, unsuccessful, yet still alive, the Chain Devil is on its last breath.
Two swords, still unsuccessful. Chain devil on the verge of death.
Three Swords, finally succeeded.
System prompt: Raven spent a total of 168 points of soul energy, attempting to conquer the chain demon three times, and finally subdued it.
"Chain Magic, Kagerou. Awaiting Lord Raven's instructions." Still covered in bloodstains, the Chain Magic struggled, using its broken body to pay respects to Raven, its raised skull revealing eyes that shone with a fervent devotion almost indistinguishable from Sain's.
Melissa standing beside him was shocked. She didn't know how Raven did it. Devils were supposed to be cunning, deceitful and selfish. Logically speaking, devils were formed from fallen, corrupted and polluted souls, so it was impossible for them to have such fanaticism. Yet Raven had managed to do just that.
This is a more exaggerated control than using River Styx oath.
He made a vow to the Nether River, and what Raven got was forced loyalty. But this is now wholehearted and fanatical loyalty. The two are not on the same level at all. The former is like Melissa, Raven's orders she will definitely do, but how much passion, to what extent that is another matter. The latter is like Chain Demon, Melissa absolutely believes that even if Raven now orders this Chain Demon to launch a single-person charge against an ancient giant dragon, the Chain Demon will go and do it without hesitation.
Levin pointed at Chain Devil, pointing at Melissa with his finger: "From now on, she is your superior. Before I give you new instructions, listen to her orders, even if she tells you to go die."
"Yes, my lord!" The Chain Devil bowed his head devoutly.
Mid-tier or higher devils mostly have strong regenerative abilities, putting their hands and feet on the wound, after a while they can connect themselves. In two days, they will be alive and kicking again.
Lower-ranking devils obey higher-ranking ones, which is almost instinctive. For a middle-ranking devil like Melissa to have another middle-ranking devil as her subordinate is extremely rare.
As a succubus as clever as she is, of course she understands how to perfectly utilize this point.
"Melissa, come here, I have a few things for you to do."
"Yes."
Levin quickly finished his orders and then sent Melissa away with the Chain Magic. He felt that the Holy Warriors had already begun their charge downwards.
In a short while, in the middle layer of the underground palace, a team of more than thirty saint warriors with killing intent rushed into a large hall, and suddenly the opposite door was slammed open.
A mid-tier devil reaper was knocked into the hall, and the holy warriors immediately gripped their weapons tightly. The next second, a slender figure flew in closely behind, and with a flash of a magnificent blade light, the reaper's head was harvested.
"Are you... Lord Saiens?" The leading Holy Warrior recognized Saiens.
Sains didn't respond, casting his gaze in the direction she had come from.
Lei Wén's majestic figure appeared before the Holy Warriors with an air of elegance and poise.
"Hello, Raven!" The Holy Warriors simultaneously raised their weapons and slightly bowed their heads to Raven. For the Holy Warriors, Raven had already proven himself multiple times as a friend of justice. So they didn't hesitate to show Raven the respect he deserved.
"Hello. Oh, just in time, I not only found a batch of devil's records that can expose several devilish conspiracies, but also discovered an underground treasure trove. If I'm not mistaken, it should be Gargos' treasure trove."
The holy warriors' hearts suddenly became fervent upon hearing this.
As messengers of justice, the beliefs of Holy Warriors are simple and pure. They do not have many demands for external things, as long as they can satisfy their living and training needs. However, justice also requires money, at least their thick full-body armor and weapons require a lot of money, in addition to other miscellaneous necessary expenses, which is not a small amount. Relying solely on donations from believers is far from enough.
The holy warrior does not mind using wealth collected from evil forces to forge a sword of justice, eliminating even more evil.
The purge of the demons has entered its final stage.
After much coordination, over a hundred holy warriors, clerics and wizards were gathered together to follow Raven to the treasure trove of Gorthok.
Levin would never tell them that this was a fake treasure house. Saying it's fake isn't entirely accurate either. Because inside, there were also monsters and demons guarding, as well as valuable gold coins and treasures.
This is the second treasure house of cunning Gaggs, made to deceive his enemies. Those who do not know the true wealth of Gaggs will think that these piles of gold coins, comparable to the imperial treasury, are all that Gaggs has. In fact, the total value of the treasures in this treasure house is less than one percent of the real treasure house below.
The holy warriors expressed their deepest gratitude to Raven for his generosity. They vowed in the name of justice that they would not embezzle even a single copper coin, and after carefully calculating the total value of the goods, they would divide one-third of the spoils to Raven according to their previous agreement when attacking this place.
Occasionally, there are also fallen holy warriors. On the whole, the integrity of holy warriors is infinitely better than that of demons.
Levin wasn't worried that the Holy Warriors would cause any trouble, and after instructing them to send the goods to Goldeus' royal city, Levin left with Sains.
As they walked along the road, Raven asked Sains: "What's your opinion on hiding the truth about the treasure from me?"
Sains shook his head, his eyes still radiating a fervent glow: "No way! Maybe it's precisely people like you who can lead us out of the depths of despair. Whatever you do, Layla and I will accompany you to the very end."
“……”
"Raven, where are we going now?"
Lei Wén smiled freely: "Of course I'm going to forge a semi-divine artifact that belongs only to me."
