Chapter 320 - A Demon of Science
Chapter 320 A Demon of Science
The sword did not work after stabbing in. Roy immediately felt that something was wrong, so he quickly retreated.
The next second, an enormous wave of fire swept toward Roy, almost covering all the space he could dodge. Feeling the violent high temperature contained in the flames, Roy took prompt action and placed a thick layer of black ice on himself. The fire wave surged and completely enveloped Roy. It carried him hundreds of meters away before gradually disappearing.
Amid the smoke, Roy appeared. The ice on his body had totally melted in the fire wave just now. Kha-Beleth’s flame power was more powerful than he had imagined. Had he not continued to output magic power, it might have burned him after the ice melted.
Looking up, he found that Kha-Beleth was in a giant sphere of flames covering his entire body. The flames burned fiercely from bottom to top, giving off the feeling that they were soaring into the sky. He merely stood on the battlefield, but even the clouds above him illuminated. The intense heat spread across the battlefield, and together with the strong smell of sulfur, the temperature of the entire battlefield rose, forcing the alliance soldiers to retreat.
The change came so fast, so much so that neither Gem nor Zehir knew what was going on. But the sudden battle between Demon Osiris and Demon Lord Kha-Beleth finally made them see hope again. They began to gather their troops. Looking at the solid ground beneath Kha-Beleth melting into flowing magma under the high temperature, Roy finally understood. He asked with a sneer, “Flame demon?” Kha-Beleth did not answer him but laughed wildly. “Frost demon?”
Neither Roy nor Kha-Beleth had expected to encounter a demon of a hostile bloodline here. The extreme disgust for the other party’s bloodline made the two of them agitated. Black frost spread under Roy’s feet and quickly surged toward Kha-Beleth. When the frost arrived not far from him and encountered the melted magma, it immediately made sizzling sounds. While extinguishing the magma, the frost also turned into steam under the high temperature. Roy and Kha-Beleth could see the other’s image distorting through the steam.
In unison, Kha-Beleth and Roy both turned their heads and ordered their respective troops, “Kill them!!!”
The next second, the battlefield that had paused exploded!
The demons on Kha-Beleth’s side howled as they rushed toward Julia and the others. At the same time, Rafaro, who could no longer hold back, let out an earth-shaking dragon roar and flew into the air with a group of bone dragons behind him toward the demon army. Giovanni laughed sinisterly and rushed down with his vampires. Their target was the low-level demons.
Fat Tiger bit Kha-Beleth’s demon sword firmly. Although he could not use his mouths anymore, his enormous body was his biggest weapon. When this gigantic beast rushed into the demon formation, he immediately caused a bloody storm. The alliance forces of Gem and Zehir were the most unlucky because they were between the two sides on the battlefield. “F*ck, damn it!” Zehir gritted his teeth. “Let’s help Demon Osiris!”
Hearing this, Julia, who was flying over his head, praised, “A wise choice!”
Zehir and Gem looked at each other and smiled bitterly. If possible, they would actually be more willing to watch the two groups of demons tear each other apart. But the problem was that Osiris’s troops seemed to have schemed against them from the beginning. When the troops came, they were behind them. Now that the two sides were fighting, they could not even hide. If they were unwilling to be killed just like that, they could only take action. Compared to the even more terrifying Kha-Beleth, they would rather choose Osiris. At least he had not killed their people… The battle began again, but no matter which side the soldiers belonged to, they tacitly avoided the location of Kha-Beleth and Roy.
Because they knew very well that no matter how they fought and lived or died on the battlefield, the final outcome depended on which of these two demons won…
Kha-Beleth could not retrieve his demon sword, so he temporarily did not want to take it back. He stretched out his hand, and an enormous flame whip condensed in his palm. With a light swing, the flame whip twisted like a snake as it tore through the steam and lashed at Roy. Several black ice walls appeared around Roy, blocking the lash from Kha-Beleth. Holding Frostmourne, Roy slashed at the air and shot an ice blade at Kha-Beleth.
Facing the ice blade flying over, Kha-Beleth stretched out his hand to block it. The ice blade quickly melted under the high temperature of his palm and was unable to cause any damage to him. Roy’s attack inspired Kha-Beleth. He continuously swung the flame whip, and each swing would produce a half-moon-shaped flame blade that flew toward Roy.
Roy continuously slashed out ice blades that collided with Kha-Beleth’s flame blades. Both sides attacked each other like this for a while but found that this ordinary attack method could not produce any effect, so they began to change their moves in unison. Roy raised his hand into the air and created an immense Ice Storm above Kha-Beleth. Countless sharp black icicles fell like torrential rain, forcing Kha-Beleth to raise his protective flames to melt the icicles as they smashed down. When he found an opportunity, he immediately shot a massive pillar of fire at Roy.
This pillar of fire constantly twisted as it flew, spinning like a fire dragon charging at Roy. Then it slammed into the ice walls in front of Roy. Boom! A violent explosion spread, and the fierce flames instantly devoured all the ice walls that Roy created. Then, taking advantage of this opportunity, Kha-Beleth’s second fire dragon flew over and rushed straight at Roy.
Facing the flying fire dragon, Roy snorted coldly. He stretched out a hand and pressed it on the fire dragon’s head!
The next second, an extremely cold aura emitted from his hand and instantly froze the flying fire dragon, preventing the flame power in it from exploding. What did a frozen flame look like? It was an exceptionally beautiful crystal. This fire dragon turned into a fiery-red crystal shining in the darkness, like the most magnificent gem in the world.
Unfortunately, the moment it turned into a crystal, the fire dragon fell from the air and shattered into countless fragments and powder. No person and no demon dared to approach Roy and Kha-Beleth’s battlefield. Gem and Zehir only dared to look from afar with the Eagle Eye skill. After seeing the probing confrontation between Roy and Kha-Beleth, they heaved a sigh of relief. In their opinion, Demon Osiris was actually evenly matched with Demon Lord Kha-Beleth.
However, they did not know that although Roy looked relaxed, he was actually in a little trouble. After devouring the power of the Sword of Frost, Roy could now easily create – 250°C frost. Logically speaking, such a low temperature should be enough to deal with Kha-Beleth’s flames.
But when they were really fighting, Roy realized that the temperature of Kha-Beleth’s flames was higher than he had imagined. Unlike hellfire, which incorporated dark power, Kha-Beleth’s flames were still red, but these flames contained a very violent power. The slightest contact could cause an explosion, making the temperature of the flames increase dramatically in an instant, melting everything that came into contact with them. Roy had just tested it and found that the moment Kha-Beleth’s flames exploded, they had a temperature as high as seven to eight thousand degrees.
Although it was only a short moment, this high temperature had already exceeded the temperature of the sun’s surface! Originally, with frost temperature Roy condensed, he should have extinguished the flames first, making Kha-Beleth’s flame magic ineffective. But the outcome of the collision was that the two neutralized each other. Roy became slightly annoyed. Of course, he could activate Cryogenic Fate and make the frost temperature he created continue to decrease, but this meant that he would need to consume more magic power. Although Kha-Beleth had lost his weapon, his current strength was probably not his true strength. It was impossible for a demon lord to have so little strength.
Therefore, after thinking about it, Roy did not continue to persist in using frost power to fight against Kha-Beleth. With a wave of his hand, he pulled an iron longsword that had fallen onto the battlefield with his Psychokinesis. An alliance soldier might have left it behind since it was still stained with purple demon blood. Under the effect of Psychokinesis, Roy removed the hilt and handguard, leaving only a single blood-stained blade, and then he controlled it to float in front of him.
Of course, Kha-Beleth saw Roy’s actions and felt puzzled. He could not help but mock, “Do you want to use that inferior weapon to attack me? What a joke!”
Roy looked at him and shook his head. “Being uncultured is truly a frightening thing!” With that, he did not explain. He only raised his arms and placed them on both sides of the sword in parallel.
The next second, black electric currents arced all over his body, and then these black electric currents wrapped around his arms. He controlled the currents on his arms and began to spiral them in reverse and continuously extend the electric field he sensed forward!
Kha-Beleth could not make out the electric currents moving on Roy’s arms, but he saw the longsword floating in front of Roy begin to shake violently. Roy gritted his teeth, used Psychokinesis to restrain the longsword, and continued to increase the electric current output on his arms. Only when he felt that it was enough did he suddenly remove the Psychokinesis acting on the longsword.
The moment he withdrew his Psychokinesis, the entire battlefield heard a deafening bang. It was the sound of a sonic boom! That’s right! Roy used himself as the guide rail and temporarily created an electromagnetic railgun to fire the longsword… Before Kha-Beleth could even react, he was hit by a flying sword with a speed that exceeded Mach 10. Although the flame armor on his chest blocked the flying sword, it carried him flying, penetrating through the entire battlefield.
The originally dense crowd on the battlefield now had a straight line plowed through it. All the humans and demons blocking the path had been smashed into bloody fragments…
