The entire Seven Hells of the Hades were now embroiled in the flames of war. The chaotic situation made it impossible for anyone to predict what would happen next.
"How did he know …?"
When my clone informed me that Cavendish was actually in front of the Pillar of Ice, after a short moment of astonishment, I then felt that this was inconceivable.
The Four Pillars were the pillars and core of the Hades, as well as their only weakness. The reason why our undead and undead armies were able to maintain a stalemate on the battlefield against the Main Gods was mainly due to the support of the Hades' natural laws. Their simple and violent undying forms gave us the confidence to attack again and again.
However, being undefeatable obviously came with a price. The Hades's own support would also reveal the secrets of the Hades. But since I intentionally hid it, I didn't believe that anyone trapped in the Seven Hells of Hell would be able to come into contact with the foundation of this world — the Four Pillars.
The Seven Hells of Hell were the secondary planes of the Hades. Although they were an important part of the Hades, it was possible to abandon them and reconstruct them when necessary.
The Seven Hell Kings were incredibly powerful and incredibly difficult to deal with. They were doubtlessly the best fighters of the Hades. But on a strategic level, they were nothing more than targets to attract the Main Gods' attention.
The Four Halls were the operating systems of the Hades. They seemed to have many functions, and the Hades Gods and demons were the guards. They were also incredibly eye-catching due to being connected to the Seven Hells of Hell. But if they were lost, they could be reconstructed. Not to mention, the Four Halls supported and protected each other. They were the strongest fortresses of the Hades.
But the Four Pillars …
"… The Hades are still being constructed. The current Four Pillars are the four elemental (construction material) outlets. They're the source of materials for constructing the Hades, as well as the core of control. If the Hades are completed, it's possible to replace one of the Pillars if we lose one. But if we lose one now, the elemental balance will become unbalanced, and it's highly likely that the entire Hades will be destroyed."
Even without considering the additional chain reactions, if we lost the Pillar of Ice, our undead would lose their physical bodies, greatly reducing their combat strength. If we lost the Pillar of Death, we wouldn't even have our undying nature. If we lost the Pillar of Law, which represented space, the entire Hades would likely begin collapsing. Since this was a weakness, we naturally had to make up for it.
Out of the four Pillars, the Pillar of Light and Salvation was at the very top of the Hades. There were other arrangements for the Pillar of Light and Salvation. The Pillar of Light and Salvation seemed to be defenseless, but it was actually quite safe. I wasn't worried about it.
The Pillar of Death is the source of the death aura of the Hades. It is also the foundation of the Hades. Before the other pillars of the Hades are destroyed, even I don't know where the Pillar of Death is.
The Pillar of Law resided in the Four Halls. If it fell, the Four Halls and Seven Prisons would have already collapsed. There would be no meaning in persisting.
Only the Pillar of Frost … it's in the depths of the fourth prison, Heartless Purgatory, which I'm guarding. That's also the core of the Seven Hells. All the dead souls in the Seven Hells will be given new lives and bodies by the Pillar of Frost.
Each of the four pillars has its own function. The Pillar of Holy Light is located at the top of the Hades. It's the boundary between life and death, guiding the living and the dead. The Pillar of Law illuminates the Four Halls of Justice, making them impartial in enforcing the law. The Pillar of Ice grants life and bodies to the undead of the Seven Hells. The Pillar of Death creates the foundation of the Hades. They're like the pillars of a house. It's impossible to move them anywhere else.
Now, it can be seen that under my intentional arrangements, the other three pillars are all quite safe. However, the Pillar of Ice is destined to be exposed on the frontlines of the battlefield.
I placed the Heartless Purgatory, which represents Sloth, in the fourth prison so that I can personally guard it. This will reduce the chances of its weakness being exposed. I also moved the battlefield of my own volition in hopes of reducing the chances of Cavendish discovering its weakness. However, the Tower of Ice was mysteriously exposed, which naturally shocked me.
"… A traitor? That's unlikely. Only a few people know about this. In that case, is Cavendish capable of instantly analyzing the dimensional laws of the entire Hades? That's even more impossible. Where did he get his dimensional knowledge from? It even involves my knowledge from another world. How could he possibly know about it? "
Those who liked to scheme and scheme all had a bad habit of overthinking things when their plans went awry. And on the battlefield, overthinking would not only lead to doubts about one's comrades but also lead to conflicts. Overthinking would also weaken one's combat strength.
"Forget it, there's no time for me to worry about such things! Ilmisya, go to the Pillar of Ice! Stop that person! "
Apart from the Hades Gods and Demon Lords who were currently in hibernation and transforming, as well as the high-level combat strength that had yet to act, it seemed that the only person free right now was the Queen of all Lustful Demons, Ilmisya, the Queen of Temptations.
As the ruler of the Hades, I was the only one who had the right to freely teleport within the Hades. With a snap of my fingers, a dimensional door appeared in front of Ilmisya. As long as she entered the dimensional door, she would definitely be able to catch up to Cavendish.
However, I didn't have any hopes that she would actually be able to stop Cavendish. Perhaps the Hades had already finished transforming most of her aura into that of a Devil Lord. Unfortunately, she still hadn't finished transforming into a demon yet. If she died in battle right now, she would likely be forced to become an undead.
Devils had weak bloodlines to begin with. For devils, it was only natural that their power level would be reduced if they were forced to change their body and elemental attributes at the last moment. I didn't have any hopes at all that Ilmisya would be able to stop the devils for long. After all, this Devil Lord was famous for her ability to play both sides and double-cross.
"You can't rely on others. Hurry up and finish off the opponent before you … Omar, how much longer do you intend to sleep for!?"
My angry roar echoed in the skies above the Mountain of Putrefaction. The ice tower's danger was now on the countdown. At this moment, I was absolutely determined to kill the Lord of Putrefaction. I was also mentally prepared to pay the price of having the entire Mountain of Putrefaction destroyed. I had no time to waste on him any longer.
“Love and Peace！ That's my creed! "
What responded to me was a deep male voice and disgustingly oily muscles.
Stretching his biceps forward in the Hercules pose and exposing his chest muscles to the side, each of his bodybuilding movements became even more perfect. After receiving the bonus from Hell King's evolution, Omar's changes could be said to be the greatest, but also the smallest.
He had grown much taller, and his appearance had become much more handsome and elegant. He even wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and he now had the scholarly aura of a literary girl … But the only things that hadn't changed were his exaggerated muscles and his abnormal sense of beauty when he only wore underwear! Just looking at Omar's abnormal body-twisting calisthenics made me feel incredibly annoyed. I felt like I was going to go crazy.
I had always felt that the unlucky ones who were sent to this Hell were the unluckiest. After all, they had to receive double punishments. And seeing such a Hell King was probably far crueler than the Hell itself.
My stomach cramped up as I watched the King of Hades suddenly jump out of the mountain and sing about love and peace. I had to take two deep breaths to calm myself down. Only now did I learn that even the Lord of Hades had the ability to vomit.
"How is this possible?"
Ladvioka was quite astonished. Although his Dimensional Combination Sealing Curse couldn't compare to the Four Elemental Seals, it was on the same level. Omar's seal clearly hadn't been broken, so how had he come out?
"Kill him!"
Of course, I wouldn't tell him the answer. Ladvioka no longer had any subordinates, so this was a perfect opportunity to understand Omar while he was at his weakest.
Killing him would be ineffective, and sealing him would be ineffective. I might as well make him hesitate in his confusion.
"Ha, foolish mortals, this is my father's ingenious plan. He knew long ago that you fellows would use sealing abilities, so of course he made preparations. Right now, we're all part of the Infernos, and as long as we leave the Seven Hells for a short period of time, our physical bodies will automatically collapse and die. And, our new physical bodies will be reborn in the Infernos! We are eternal and indestructible. We cannot be stopped. We … are in pain! My father, why did you hit me? "
Alright then, if it wasn't for the fact that the situation wasn't right, I wouldn't have only hit him. I would have even wanted to kill him.
As expected of the incarnation of Pride, Ladvioka's ability to die from talking too much was a perfect example. Not only did he explain why he wasn't afraid of being sealed, he even exposed his weakness of being unable to leave the Infernos for an extended period of time.
But judging from Ladvioka's increasingly astonished expression, knowing the reason didn't mean that the problem could be solved. Since Omar's undying nature was impossible to seal, Ladvioka had been forced into a corner.
"Let's connect. Let this idiot know just how powerful you two brothers are."
Of course, I hadn't awakened Omar just to hear him reveal his weakness. Envy and Pride were unique Concepts. The former would steal from others to strengthen itself, while the latter would simultaneously strengthen itself and others by ruling over others. Their abilities didn't conflict with each other. In fact, they could even complement each other from the very start!
The bone giant lowered its head and instantly swallowed Omar. The next instant, the entire bone giant began to undergo a mysterious change. Envy the Titan evolved once again!
…
While Roland was going all out and intending to have Ladvioka appear first, Cavendish was smiling as he walked through the snow in the Infernos of the Lost Heart, the Fourth Hell.
"This time, I've finally tricked him!"
That's right, when Roland tossed out a teleportation portal to lure Cavendish into it, he hadn't actually entered it at all. He had only sent a clone into it, while his true body was searching for the Tower of Ice in the endless Infernos of Ice.
Roland was quite careful in hiding his items. The Tower of Ice was located deep within the snowy mountains, where the snow and ice were the densest. Even if he had an insider to guide him, finding the Tower of Ice in the vast Infernos of Ice would be a difficult and time-consuming task, especially since the rules here were incredibly unfriendly to finding the way.
The Infernos of the Lost Heart was just as its name suggested. It was a place where sinners who were too cold, lazy, unfilial, and neglected their loved ones would be punished. Roland's punishment for the sinners here was incredibly cruel — they would have to search for their own hearts in confusion.
"You people don't know how to love others, nor do you accept others' love. In that case, what's the point of keeping your memories and hearts?"
The entire Infernos of Ice was covered in snowy plains, snowy mountains, and hills. However, all the environments and sceneries were similar or similar. No matter where you looked, it was all snow white. This was a natural labyrinth.
And the sinners' hearts were cut into countless pieces. The demons randomly threw them somewhere, and the souls that lost their hearts would continuously lose their memories. Before they completely forgot who they were, they had to find the pieces of their hearts in order to recover a portion of their past memories.
As for whether or not anyone could find all of them? Probably not.
This didn't seem like a cruel punishment, but in the future, it would be named as the cruelest punishment in the Seven Infernos. Let's not talk about its sinister and cruel intentions for now. After all, that wasn't the main point right now. Just this natural labyrinth alone was enough to cause Cavendish, who wasn't very good at finding his way, to feel at a loss.
And before he could go berserk from the unchanging snowy scenery, Cavendish finally met the first person who took the initiative to greet him. The tall and slender Queen of Lust smiled and waved her hand. It was just a ripple, but it was enough to disperse all the snow and ice in this place.
"Ha, I've finally met someone. Beautiful lady, could you take me to the Tower of Ice?"
As a bystander, Roland's clone felt that Cavendish's smile was quite foolish. This seemed to be a provocation, and it would be quite easy to attract hatred. But what happened next made Roland feel like he was the greatest idiot.
The Queen of Temptations, Ilmisya's reply was quite direct. Her tall and slender body pounced on Roland and gently hugged Roland's small body. Then, she lowered her head and kissed Roland.
That lingering French kiss caused all the bystanders to be stunned, and Ilmisya's passionate reply almost caused Roland to choke on his breath.
"Of course I can. I'll show you the way. That's why I'm here. My prince, my closest lover, my most adorable lover."
