Male demons were not bad, and female demons did not love. This was the view of choosing a spouse in the Abyss. Although Julia was a fallen angel, she was still from the Abyss, so she was no different from other demons.
The Lord of the Hollows would never have thought that Roy, a high-rank demon, would dare to casually agree to the conditions raised by a demon lord, but then go back on his word.
Perhaps it was because he had been in this world for too long and had served as the Charred Council for too long, causing the Lord of the Hollows to forget how to deal with a demon. All verbal promises without the constraints of a contract did not count!
It was not that the power of the Lord of the Hollows was not attractive to Roy, but that Roy felt that there was a pit in this job that he was unwilling to jump into!
Roy had never seen the demon named Abraxis, but since the Lord of the Hollows not only did not take action himself but also did not tell Roy the rank of Abraxis, how could Roy foolishly run to find trouble with him?
Roy perfunctorily brushed off the Lord of the Hollows. After he left, Roy turned around and forgot about this matter.
Of course, the Lord of the Hollows was a demon lord after all, and Roy could not openly disobey him, so the method he planned to adopt was one word: delay!
As for Julia, since she was following Roy, she would definitely support his decision unconditionally. So after the two of them left, they continued to hunt down the remaining two Seven Deadly Sins according to their original plan.
However, they did not go too far away from the Destroyer's Tower that was under construction this time. They could still vaguely see the enormous floating rocks because according to the information provided by Vulgrim, Pride of the Seven Deadly Sins was not far from here.
Not long after, Roy and the others found Pride …
Just as Fury had said, the Seven Deadly Sins were not demons, and the targets they chose to possess were different. The body of Pride they found this time turned out to be a four-winged angel!
Moreover, this was a female angel wearing a golden mask. Under the cover of the mask, Roy could not see what she looked like. But what surprised Roy was that this angel possessed by Pride was not a fallen angel! This was because her wings were still pure white!
Pride did not care when she discovered that a demon and a fallen angel had appeared with hostility. Just like the deadly sins she represented, she stubbornly believed that she was the strongest and most perfect of the Seven Deadly Sins. She did not look at Roy and Julia at all, completely treating them as ants, and kept belittling them with words.
Roy had always been speechless about this. He did not know where Pride got her confidence from. Perhaps this was the characteristic that the deadly sins gave her.
After killing several Seven Deadly Sins in a row, Roy discovered one thing. A few of the bodies possessed by the Seven Deadly Sins were talkative. For example, SE, whom he had encountered earlier, was a … humanoid creature that was neither male nor female. While resisting in battle, she chattered endlessly in an attempt to seduce Roy and Julia, wanting them to join her camp, and even tried to provoke Roy and Julia's fire control (homonym). At that time, Roy and Julia had almost fallen for it. They were partners now, and after eating the marrow, they could not withstand this kind of provocation.
But in the end, SE was the first to kneel because Roy had guarded against her before the battle started. At the beginning, he created a black snowstorm. SE did not know what was going on and fought with Roy and the others in this snowstorm. In the end, the Magic Power Virus drained her of her magic power. When she reacted and wanted to escape, she was locked by the Dark Hole Force Field created by Roy, and finally, Julia beheaded her with a sword.
Now, after encountering Pride, she actually began to use her verbal cannon mode.
Of course, Roy knew that the verbal attacks of the Seven Deadly Sins actually carried some of the power of the deadly sins. Every intelligent creature would more or less have some negative emotions. The Seven Deadly Sins used words to arouse the negative emotions of their opponents and step by step fell into the domain they were good at.
Therefore, as soon as they saw Pride use her verbal cannon mode, Roy and Julia surrounded her and attacked without saying a word!
However, Pride was indeed very strong. It could be said that she had the highest combat strength among the Seven Deadly Sins that Roy and Julia had encountered so far. After all, her body was a four-winged angel, which was more suitable for exerting her strength than the insect and goblin bodies that they had encountered before. Moreover, in the battle, Roy discovered one thing. The injuries that Pride suffered in the battle recovered in the blink of an eye, be it sword wounds or frostbite.
At first, Roy thought that this fellow had a powerful self-healing ability, but then he found that this was not the case. Once, Roy used Julia's attack as a cover to approach Pride, grab her with his hand, and freeze her. In just three seconds, all the ice on her body disappeared without a trace! There was no scene of her shattering, as though the ice had never existed.
This scene surprised Roy and Julia, so they became even more cautious in the battle.
Through continuous observation, Roy gradually saw some clues. He felt that Pride's instant recovery was a little … distorted reality!
It was as though she had suffered an injury, but she arrogantly denied this fact, thinking that she was not actually injured. Thus, reality was distorted by her arrogant power, making the injury disappear without a trace.
If Roy's guess was correct, then Pride was really too difficult to deal with. This ability to distort reality was simply invincible!
If Roy had not noticed that every time she recovered from her injuries like this, her magic power level would drop, and she would gradually start to pant in the battle, he might have turned around and left with Julia …
After discovering this situation, Roy summoned a large-scale black blizzard again. He had previously tried to activate Cryogenic Fate to completely freeze Pride at an ultra-low temperature, but unfortunately, Pride's special power still eliminated her frozen state. It seemed that her power to distort reality would not be ineffective because her consciousness was frozen, but it would passively exist and take effect with her body.
Therefore, he could only waste time in this battle. But in terms of a war of attrition, Roy had never been afraid of anyone. Black snowflakes the size of goose feathers fell with the Magic Power Virus that could continuously devour his opponent's magic power. The Cold Winter Armor Roy was wearing gave him powerful magic power recovery speed. If this continued, Roy would eventually kill Pride.
However, while the battle was continuing, the black blizzard triggered by Roy's magic power was noticed by someone …
It could not be helped. This blizzard covered a wide area. Within a radius of two kilometers, the climate above this area was completely different from the surroundings, so it was difficult not to notice it!
In the sky not far away, an angel army was wandering.
This angel army was the angel team that had come out to find Uriel not long ago!
The six four-winged angels leading this team of angels had turned into blood angels because they had used the Blood Oath. Coupled with the hundreds of low-level angels they led, they were a very powerful combat force among the remaining angel armies in this world.
But during this period of time, this angel army had been wandering this land, but they had not been able to find their revenge target. Demon Lord Straga, who had killed Abaddon, was currently missing. They searched countless demon gathering points but could not find any traces of Straga. Similarly, Roy, the murderer of Uriel, was mostly wandering in the underground world because he was searching for the Seven Deadly Sins.
As time passed, the six blood angels and the angel army they led became more and more anxious.
The blood angel state formed by the Blood Oath could not last forever. This was the greatest drawback of blood angels. Once the power of the Blood Oath weakened and disappeared, these six four-winged blood angels would immediately turn into bubbles and disappear from the world. Not only would their bodies be annihilated, but even their souls would completely dissipate.
The six four-winged angels had paid such a huge price in hopes of borrowing the power of the Blood Oath to take revenge. However, if they couldn't find the target of their revenge, it would be equivalent to them sacrificing their lives and souls for nothing. How could they be willing to accept that?
Earlier, they had sensed that a large number of low-level demons were gathering in this area. After some investigation, they found that the demons were actually planning to build the Destroyer's Tower here. Although the blood angels wanted to destroy this demon king's home, the one supervising the construction of the tower was actually a demon lord named Abraxis. The blood angels did not want to use the power of revenge on this demon lord, so they could only leave temporarily.
But after leaving, they spent a lot of time going around, but they found nothing. As the time limit of the Blood Oath approached, the blood angels felt a little desperate.
They discussed for a long time, made up their minds, and returned to the Destroyer's Tower.
They felt that if they could not find the hidden murderer, then they should try their best to use the power of the Blood Oath before they dissipated. Even if they could kill a demon lord and destroy the demon king's throne, it would be good.
Thus, they returned to the vicinity of the Destroyer's Tower …
In the end, before they could launch an attack on the tower, they unexpectedly discovered a region with a different climate in the distance. There was actually black snow drifting in that region!
They looked at each other, turned around, and rushed over to see what was going on …
Roy would never have thought that his biggest trouble was about to come …
