After temporarily putting aside the matter of these angel souls, the Demon Eyes that Roy had released finally sent back news, so he brought Julia to the place where the Seven Deadly Sins appeared.
In fact, one of the reasons why he had agreed to help Fury of the Four Horsemen hunt down the Seven Deadly Sins was that Roy was a little curious about the origin of the power of the Seven Deadly Sins and what relationship they had with the Seven Deadly Sin Demon Kings of the Abyss.
Of course, Roy definitely knew that he had to act within his capabilities. It was precisely because Roy had observed the battle between Fury and Envy (fake) in Vulgrim's Purgatory Space that he was roughly certain that the power of the Seven Deadly Sins was only at the high-rank demon level, so he was willing to accept it. If the power of the Seven Deadly Sins exceeded the scope of Roy's abilities, he would not have accepted it no matter what.
However, even if the Seven Deadly Sins were only at the high-rank demon level, they were actually very powerful. Among the demon ranks, high-rank demons were actually very powerful demons. As the leaders and commanders of demon armies, once they encountered high-rank demons in various worlds, the people of that world would treat them as if they were facing a formidable enemy, and they would not even hesitate to send a large number of troops to encircle and annihilate them.
Especially in some worlds, if the locals did not know much about the strength of demons, they might treat high-rank demons as demon kings. In the history books of some worlds, when describing a demon king, they would often use all sorts of extreme words to describe the terror of the demon king. But in fact, the demon king they described might just be a high-rank demon in the Abyss …
If a more specific description was used to describe the strength of high-rank demons, it could be said that the power of high-rank demons could easily destroy an enormous city!
At the demon lord level, he could easily destroy a country. At the demon king level like Samael, he could easily destroy a world and a planet! The battle between Samael and the Destroyer caused the Earth's crust to change, the meteorological phenomena to be chaotic, and disasters to occur frequently. This was proof.
Roy was now a high-rank demon, so he also had the power to easily destroy a city …
One of the Demon Eyes he released found a strange figure. This figure had been wandering among the destroyed human buildings, seemingly collecting something. When Roy and Julia rushed to the area where the Demon Eyes were, they found that it was indeed one of the Seven Deadly Sins!
This was a … goblin-like creature. He was carrying a huge bag on his back. The bag was so big that it was several times the size of the goblin creature. It looked heavy, but the skinny goblin was able to carry the huge bag effortlessly. From time to time, he would throw some shiny things into the huge bag.
There was no need to think too much. When he saw this goblin creature, he guessed its identity. This was one of the Seven Deadly Sins, 'Greed'!
The shiny things this goblin collected were all gold and jewelry. Before the End War, these gold and jewelry might have been very valuable items in the human world, but after the End War, they became the most useless things. Firstly, they could not become food for the survivors to fill their stomachs, and secondly, they could not be used to bribe angels and demons in exchange for a chance for humans to survive, so they were naturally abandoned.
The ruins where Roy and the others were now seemed to have been a huge bank, but the bank building had been flattened, and the underground vault had been opened. Countless colorful banknotes were scattered everywhere in this area, but this goblin Greed ignored the banknotes and only kept searching for the shiny gold.
Just as Fury had said, these Seven Deadly Sins were indeed not demons. Among demons, there was no such existence like goblins. This goblin was just a 'vessel' after being possessed by 'Greed' …
"Strange …" Roy flew in the air and looked at the goblin. "Are there goblins in this world?"
"It should be a species of an ancient race!" Julia said. "The space bubble where the Charred Council is located is connected to all the alternate spaces in this world. When the Seven Deadly Sins escaped, not all of them might have found their bodies in the human world."
Roy nodded and did not pursue the matter further. He folded his wings and descended from the sky.
However, Greed did not care about the arrival of Roy and Julia, two uninvited guests. He simply ignored them and continued to pick through the ruins.
"Hey, stop!" Julia held her sword and pointed at Greed. "You're one of the Seven Deadly Sins, right?"
However, after shouting, what welcomed her was confusion and awkwardness. Greed ignored Julia as if he did not hear her at all.
Roy sighed. Why does Julia like to say a few words before attacking? Was this a bad habit that came from being an angel in the past?
"Don't talk nonsense. Just attack!" Roy summoned Frostmourne from space. With a flash, he suddenly appeared in front of Greed and slashed at him!
Only at this moment did this goblin finally discover Roy and the others. While being shocked, he quickly reacted and raised his hand to block Roy's slash.
Roy was too tall for this goblin. Looking down from above, Roy saw Greed's appearance clearly. Although he looked like a goblin, this goblin had a pair of demon horns, his cheeks were sunken like a skull, and his eyes were blood-red. He already had a certain demon appearance, and his hands were a pair of sharp claws. He was completely different from the goblins Roy knew.
In his huge bag, some items were revealed. There were human corpses, angel wings, and even demon limbs. It seemed that this guy's collection was not limited to gold and jewelry but everything valuable to him …
"Damn demon, who are you?!" the goblin shouted in a sharp voice. "Do you want to snatch my things?"
"No, I'm just saying hello to you. Hello!" Roy replied with a smile. Then he raised his right foot and kicked the goblin's abdomen. Under the tremendous force, he sent the goblin flying along with his huge bag!
Roy's kick was aimed at Julia. Seeing this, Julia raised her longsword and slashed at the goblin's waist, intending to cut him in half.
Unexpectedly, this goblin was exceptionally agile and actually adjusted his posture in midair, causing Julia's sword to directly slash at his huge bag!
With a crash, when Greed landed on the ground, everything in his bag spilled out.
"Ah!!!" Seeing this situation, Greed let out a shrill scream even though he was not injured. After he landed, he could not care about anything else. He desperately picked up the scattered things on the ground and stuffed them back into his bag.
However, the bag had already been cut by Julia's sword, and it could not hold it at all. It fell out after being stuffed in.
After discovering this situation, the goblin raised his head greedily and looked at Julia and Roy. He screamed coldly, "You damn demons and fallen angels! How dare you break my important bag! I'm going to kill you and use your skin to repair it! "
With that, he casually picked up a huge cement block with bent steel bars on the ground and threw it at Julia!
When the cement block flew over, it carried a loud whistling sound. The short body of the goblin Greed actually hid an enormous power that did not match it. The cement block smashed over quickly and in a parabola. Julia could not find a direction to dodge for a moment, so she could only grit her teeth and bear it. She slashed at the cement block with her sword. Although she split the cement block in half, she was sent flying by the immense force contained in it!
But then Julia was blocked by a hand halfway. Roy flashed behind her and caught her.
Roy caught Julia with his left hand and raised his right hand gently. A huge icicle suddenly pierced out from the ground where Greed was. The sharp front of the icicle hit Greed's stomach and sent him flying with a bang.
Greed screamed in pain. The icicle directly pierced through his skin and stabbed several inches deep. Fortunately, he was short and light, so he was sent flying and not completely pierced. But before he could jump out and stabilize himself, a large-scale ice storm attacked the area where he was!
Countless huge icicles fell from the sky and smashed into the ground. The hard black icicles pierced through the cement on the ground and stabbed deep into the ground. The goblin Avarice could not dodge in time and was immediately drowned by the ice storm!
Roy's magic did not stop. He continued to control these icicles to hit the ground for more than ten seconds before gradually stopping.
Under the high-quality magic power, the power of Roy's frost attacks was much stronger. Countless icicles did not disappear after falling. Instead, the cold air froze and connected with each other, forming an enormous ice cage.
The sharp icicles failed to kill Greed, but this guy was already drenched in blood. After the ice cage formed, he was sealed in it. The Magic Power Virus and the Desolate Virus contained in the ice immediately began to corrode his body. The surface of his body was bone-chilling, but the blood inside his body was boiling, hot, and uneasy. Even his magic power was constantly flowing away.
Greed immediately realized that he had encountered an iron plate this time. This high-rank demon in front of him was stronger than him!
Thus, he used all the strength in his body to shatter the black frost cage and jumped out. Then … he turned around and ran!
Greed was short, so he could go to his lair through the narrow underground passages. These underground passages extended in all directions. Once he entered, it would be difficult for the tall Roy to find him no matter what.
However, just as he turned around and ran a few steps, he suddenly heard clanging sounds behind him!
That's … the sound of gold falling?!
Instinctively, Greed turned around and saw a scene that made him envious. A large number of gold bars appeared out of thin air in the demon's hand and fell to the ground. The sound was the sound of these gold bars colliding …
Despite knowing that his life was in danger, the goblin's greedy body could not help but turn around and walk toward Roy.
Roy knew that Greed wanted to escape, but he could not be bothered to use Flash to chase after him. Instead, he let Greed walk back obediently …
