Winged Skeleton's calculation method was simple. If Salin wasn't in his favor, he would find a way to kill him. Now, the Warriors who had seen him subdue the four Mages were basically all dead. Some were surrounded by demons and couldn't even take care of themselves. At this time, Winged Skeleton wouldn't save these Warriors. If he killed them all, no one would talk nonsense with Sephiroth.
When Sephiroth left, the four Mages had fallen. Sephiroth probably didn't know that they were still alive. After turning into Necromancers, their appearances would slowly change. Even his own son wouldn't be able to recognize them.
Winged Skeleton seemed to be happy, but he was very careful. After more demons swarmed in and all the corpses were contaminated, Winged Skeleton got up from the ground. Jade Skeleton and the four Necromancers were put into the undead space. Then, it flew up to the cave above with Raphael.
It wasn't difficult for Raphael to kill these demons, but there were too many of them. Raphael didn't have many AOE skills, and he couldn't bear to use them carelessly. Killing them one by one was boring.
Winged Skeleton didn't want to waste his undead here. The magic door behind him was already closed. If the demons wanted to break in, they would probably have to spend a lot of effort.
Although the four Necromancers were powerful, Winged Skeleton suddenly remembered that they had just been transformed. Their appearances were similar to when they were alive. Even if he used Undead Camouflage, there was no way he could fool everyone. Especially Sephiroth. If he saw the four Necromancers, he would definitely recognize them.
He had to wait until the Necromancers completely changed their appearances and bodies. In the undead space, the Necromancers weren't in a state of hibernation. They could still train their skills. This was very important to Winged Skeleton. Training in his undead space was very slow. There was no other reason. He was also learning, but he didn't have to use his mental power.
This was why Mages with the undead space were so powerful. Being able to summon undead at any time was a piece of cake. If he didn't have to put in too much effort, he could accumulate a large number of skills. Coupled with his long lifespan, advancing would be very easy.
Apart from not being able to use others to comprehend Laws, Necromancers were more magical than Elemental Mages.
In some planes, Necromancers were highly respected, and they were not called Necromancers, but Life Mages.
With the Scythe of the Underworld in hand, the Winged Skeleton rushed into the cave. Green light shot out from his eyes, purifying the low-level devils in front of him. Raphael, with his spear in hand, had not encountered a single enemy.
The length of this passageway was only a few hundred meters. As the Wing Skeleton moved its wings, the bone spikes that appeared at the tips of its bony wings borrowed strength from the cave walls. Its speed was even faster than flying.
After passing through the cave, there was a huge plaza above them. The cave was at the edge of the plaza, and the Winged Skeleton could see the center of the plaza with a single glance. There was a whirlpool of black fog that was spitting out demons.
The devils were spat out by the whirlpool, and they were all flustered. The whirlpool's power and speed were too great, and only devils of rank 9 and above could land steadily.
After the high-level devils landed, they urged the low-level devils to get into formation. When the Winged Skeleton appeared at the entrance of the cave, there were already powerful devils looking over. However, they did not make a move, nor did they come over. They only continued to command.
When the Winged Skeleton saw the demon's reaction, it knew that something was wrong. It was afraid that a stronger demon was about to appear. Those demons that ignored it were already as high as level 10. If a higher level demon appeared and the magic door was broken too early, it was unsure whether it would ruin its master's plan.
"Raphael, let's go deal with those devils." The Winged Skeleton changed his mind and rushed to the center of the plaza.
Troublesome Skeleton.
Raphael mumbled. She did not really want to fight these devils. Although she was a rank 13 Archangel, after the fall of the gods, if she wanted to use divine spells, she could only rely on the divine power stored in her equipment. She could no longer get help from the gods. This was also the reason why she was willing to follow Salin.
If she relied on herself to protect the metal angel, sooner or later, her divine power would be exhausted, and she would only be left with her combat skills.
Raphael hated it from the bottom of her heart and found it hard to accept what she believed in.
However, the Winged Skeleton was very important. Raphael could not just watch as this skeleton was dismantled. After thinking about it, she changed into a set of equipment that Salin had prepared for her from her own space.
First, it was a set of Demon God Decaying Armor. Then, she held a bladed shield in her left hand and a spear in her right. This spear was made from the spear of a rank 14 Silver Line Tuna. According to Nelis's gray memory, the quality was much lower.
However, a rank 14 Silver Line Tuna was already strong enough. Against a rank 10 devil, she could basically kill one with one shot. If the opponent stood in a straight line, it was possible to kill three or four with one shot.
It was not easy for Salin to put together this spear. He had a lot of materials for the Silver Line Tuna, but only this spear, with the six evil eyes on it, was intact.
Using this set of equipment only depended on Raphael's strong body. It did not consume any divine power. Salin was very generous and embedded a dragon crystal in the spear. Ever since he had formed an alliance with the Ironblood Grand Duke, all the experts around Salin had changed the magic cores on their equipment to dragon crystals.
Dragon crystals were rare and precious, but Salin was willing to use them. Items were dead. If they were gone, they could be made again. People were alive. If they were dead, they were gone. Salin's calculations were meticulous, but to the people around him, it was never a matter of price. As long as he could increase his combat strength, Salin would always take out the best things.
By the time Raphael put on the equipment, the Winged Skeleton had already rushed into the middle of a group of devils. His Scythe of the Nether God suddenly grew to more than seven meters. With a horizontal swing, the black blade danced wildly, directly cutting nearly a hundred devils into pieces.
This action immediately made a few rank 10 devils nervous. Six of them surrounded the Winged Skeleton.
The Winged Skeleton flew up, the blade of the Scythe of the Nether God slashing down madly, targeting rank 9 devils. Devils below rank 9 would be killed if they touched the Scythe of the Nether God. Moreover, devils also had souls. When these devils were killed, their souls would be absorbed into the Scythe of the Nether God.
The blade of the Scythe of the Nether God grew larger and larger, and the attacks it released were also getting farther and farther away.
Raphael arrived. With a thrust of her spear, the spear light pierced into the black vortex. The black vortex immediately exploded. Hundreds of devil corpses gushed out. Blood sprayed down like a red rain.
The black vortex was destroyed by the spear for less than half a second before it reformed. Raphael couldn't help but frown. Although this spear wasn't as powerful as when he used the Bloody Rose, the spear Salin had made for himself had a restraining effect on devils. The effect would be better.
Since the spear had failed, killing some devils was meaningless. After the black vortex recovered, it became even thicker, and the number of devils it spat out also increased.
Raphael felt helpless. If the gods were still alive, she would only need to use a prayer spell to borrow powerful divine power and destroy this evil vortex.
But not now. If she used this kind of skill, she would probably die immediately.
Since she couldn't destroy the black vortex, Raphael simply followed the Winged Skeleton and began to kill the devils around the vortex. Although she couldn't use divine spells, when she waved her spear, she was like a tiger in a flock of sheep.
But the devils that came out of the vortex seemed endless. No matter how she killed, the number didn't decrease.
The gods that Raphael served didn't like to attack other people's territories. But this Metal God's power was extremely special. Other gods coveted her, and her divine kingdom was always in a state of war. Back then, Raphael had only been a level-12 angel captain, but she had already fought with hundreds of god armies.
Just in terms of melee skills, Raphael was many levels higher than these devils.
The six eyes on the spear could also absorb the devils' energy. After these devils died, they wouldn't bring any power to the black vortex. This made it very easy for Raphael to fight.
But the Winged Skeleton didn't have it easy. His Scythe of the Nether God was also effective against devils. The problem was that his level wasn't as high as Raphael's. Although his physical strength was similar, he didn't have as much melee experience as Raphael.
Raphael had probably killed hundreds of thousands of angels with her own hands. Many gods had also died at her hands. A battle between gods was a clash of divine kingdoms. When Raphael was created, she was a battle angel. She was the perfect weapon of the Metal God. Her level wasn't high, but she could advance. Her combat skills and divine spells were the most powerful.
If the Metal God hadn't fallen, Raphael might have even evolved from an angel to a god and become a servant god.
The Winged Skeleton couldn't do that. Its combat skills came from a Necromancer that it had devoured. For some reason, that Necromancer had inherited too many memories from when he was alive. This caused the Winged Skeleton to mutate. It had high intelligence and was good at fighting mages.
But the Winged Skeleton's melee skills were a bit ordinary. The skeleton's instincts weren't high enough, so it couldn't sweep the devils. It relied on the power of its equipment.
The Winged Skeleton hadn't been injured yet. It relied on its golden heart and the green light of purification that shot out of its eyes.
If humans saw that the undead could use purification spells, they would almost go crazy. But in the Winged Skeleton's eyes, there were the souls of the two Oracles of the Goddess of Nature in the blood-colored soul tower.
Now that the Winged Skeleton was on fire, it simply began to release Necromancy magic. After all, its Soul Fire could communicate with the Undead Plane here. The powerful Soul Fire had already solidified, causing the Winged Skeleton's eyes to look like a human's, with black eyeballs.
Undead Healing, Undead Roar, Darkness Attack, Death Ray …
All sorts of Undead Skills were unleashed at the Winged Skeleton, leaving an empty space around it. In this area, the corpses of the devils were purified.
The Winged Skeleton saw that the Level-10 devils were only surrounding them from afar. They didn't want to enter the attack range of the Scythe of the Nether God. It made an insulting gesture to the devils.
