Chapter 3350 - Untitled
"Huhuhuhu, destruction is glory, death is home. Soldiers of Hell, charge! Kill!"
"Motor furnace above!"
"Maintenance! Maintenance! Maintenance!"
The Thousand Gates Mountain of the Blood Demon Sector was wreathed in smoke, venomous fog, and soaring bloody clouds. Countless devils were fighting each other like wild bees.
Black Jack and his harem were crouching on a high tube a few kilometers away, observing the situation of the battle carefully.
It was the first time that Theresa had seen a war of the demon race. More precisely speaking, it was the first time that she had witnessed the brutal, large-scale battles of the natives of the world of magic.
He could not help but widen his eyes. He stimulated his eyeballs with his magical energy and condensed an invisible 'telescope' in front of him with the laws of optics, not missing any detail.
Theresa had thought that the Thousand Gates Mountain was truly a 'mountain'.
It was not until he arrived that he realized that it was a giant pillar in the middle of a vast space.
The cone-shaped pillar shrank higher and higher, but it gradually expanded when it reached the tip of the cone.
Looking from afar, it seemed to be a giant hourglass, or a terrifying cave beyond description. Stalagmites and stalactites were extending toward each other, growing and hanging, and eventually merging.
Other than the main body of the Thousand Gates Mountain, a lot of crooked tubes were hanging down from the dome where the light sources were neatly arranged.
Looking at it from such a perspective, the Thousand Gates Mountain was like an enormous banyan tree. Other than its main body, its 'air roots' were even denser, forming a forest that covered the sky and the earth.
Whatever the materials of the Thousand Gates Mountain and the tubes used to be, they had been smeared with a thick layer of rust after thousands of years. Weird moss and fungi that fed on the rust had grown out, too.
Bright green, deep purple, crimson… The colorful carpet of fungi wriggled and covered the Thousand Gates Mountain and all the tubes, making them look like the internal organs of a certain beast in space. Weird 'eyes' were embedded on the 'inner organs', blinking every now and then. Every time they blinked, new devils would appear near the 'eyes'.
As it turned out, the 'eyes' were the short-distance teleportation arrays, or 'demonic gates'.
The fierce battle around the demon gate had entered the climax.
Theresa had thought that the so-called 'demons', like the 'demons' in the Pangu Universe, were the products of the genetic modification of normal human beings.
For example, the two harems of Black Jack, except for their bright green and deep purple skin, seemed to be no different from the ordinary human beings in the world of brightness. Therefore, after they disguised themselves, they could enter and exit the towns of the human beings normally.
However, most of the devils in the Blood Demon Sector did not seem so 'normal'. They were not as simple as the genetic mutations of the demon race.
Most devils were like… a combination of human flesh and metal.
Some of the devils had attached a pair of coldly shining giant axes or spiked clubs to their black bodies.
Some of the devils had been highly modified and melded with the hideous armor. When the enemy smashed his armor, the flesh behind would be torn apart, too.
Some of the devils only had the upper half body of a human being, while the lower half body was attached to some six-legged mechanical spiders. The left half of their body was still in the form of a human being, but the right half was now a bizarre-shaped war machine.
Theresa even discovered a troop that looked like a suicide squad of the demon race. All the members had heads made of pure flesh and blood, but their bodies were enormous creatures that looked like giant soldiers. They were crushing the enemy like moving castles.
All the blades, sabers, armors, machines, and war automatons were covered in a thin carpet of fungi, or rather, humus, which made them look like the skin of the devil race in the darkness. It was quite natural and not too weird.
However…
It seemed to be more than a competition of cold weapons.
The war automatons that had melded with the flesh and blood of the demon race were all spurting furious flames and surging steam when they were attacking with their full strength.
When the warriors of the demon race waved the hammer on their wrist, the hammer was like a super-mini boiler that would spurt out powerful air currents from the back to increase the speed and damage.
The gaps of the armor that grew directly on the flesh and blood would spurt out powerful air currents nonstop, too. The entire army seemed to be enshrouded in mist, adding to the weirdness and horror.
Not to mention the devils whose heads were made of flesh and blood but whose bodies were enormous fortresses. It was quite possible that powerful boilers were hidden inside their bodies, and what the surging steam was pushing were the squeaking tracks.
"Alright. It seems that the people of the Blood Demon Sector retained more advanced technology from the ancient times than the natives of the Glorious Mortal Realm did. They pushed their civilization into the era of cold weapons and steam again. No wonder the kingdoms and churches that are still in the dark and medieval era could not resist such an army of demons when they marched into the Glorious Mortal Realm.
Of course, they still have a long way to go compared with their common ancestor, the fleet of the Primeval Lord of Fleet, who has fled to this world.
"Do you see the flags that are sweeping crazily on the left side of the battle formation? There is a turtle shell embroidered on the flag with an umbrella. It is the army of the 'Prison Destroyer', or in other words, the army of Lord Cooper.
After hearing the introduction of the two demonesses, Princess Summer crawled back and bit Trisha's ear. "The Hell Exterminators are one of the two fighting species of the Blood Demon Sector, and they are the strongest. Before, we had to gather the strength of the other six demon clans in order to suppress the Hell Exterminators.
"But over the past few years, under the command of Grand Lord Kuba, the Exterminator Tribe has expanded exponentially. It has surpassed the limits of the other six tribes and fought against six of them at the same time.
"As you can see, the army of Hell Exterminator King is about to crush the coalition army of the other six demon clans!
Theresa saw it.
The battle formation on the left side of the Thousand Gates Mountain was indeed neat and disciplined. Besides, the war automatons were the largest in number, and the soldiers were the bravest and most brutal. One could tell that they were ready to kill at a glance.
She just didn't understand. "Why did Grand Emperor Kuba embroider an umbrella-like turtle shell on his flag? Is there anything special about it?"
"In fact, it is not a turtle shell but a relic of the Hell Destroyer Clan.
Princess Summer said, "It seems to be an ancient magical equipment passed down from the ancient ancestors of the Hell Destroyer Clan a long time ago. It's called… 'Orb assault capsule'."
