Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 440 The Only Surviving Ancient God

Hobert found that he was surrounded by seven or eight demons.

With their goat horns on their heads, they looked at Hobert and his companions who had fallen to the ground with playful smiles on their faces.

The blood type patterns and demon statues can be seen everywhere, making Hobert feel as if he is in hell at this moment!

Hobert smiled: "I didn't expect that the devil's ability to predict danger is so sensitive."

The smiles of the demons deepened, and a huge demon walked out from among the demons. He said with a smirk on his face, "Isn't this Baron Hobert? Did you sleepwalk and get lost at night?"

All the demons burst into laughter.

Seeing the other party's smirk, Hobert knew it must be Yarlin.

Hobert said to himself: "You guys are very good at this ability, saving me from searching for them one by one. Out of control!"

A "Runaway Stone" was thrown on the ground, and several Sequence 6 "demons" were motionless for a moment, trying to fight against the out-of-control.

Fortunately, they are now in a "demonized" state, and their control over themselves has been significantly enhanced. They are trying hard to burn the horns on their heads, trying to restore themselves to their state as soon as possible.

More than 20 blue fireballs suddenly appeared around Yarlin, who was not greatly affected. The fireballs were controlled by Yarlin's thoughts, and they hit Hobert one by one.

With a "flash", Hobert came directly to Arsen: "Holy..."

Halfway through using this ability, Hobert suddenly felt his heart beat twice suddenly, he felt uncomfortable all over, and became very restless, even interrupting his own ability.

This is the detonation of desire by the "Apostle of Desire". Hobert has always tried his best to restrain his desire, but just now he had the desire to kill Yarlin, so Yarlin seized the opportunity.

Fortunately, the "lawyer" path is also known for blocking mental attacks, otherwise Hobert's heart must have been greatly injured.

Yarlin couldn't laugh anymore, he didn't expect Hobert to be so fierce, and before all his fireballs were thrown, Hobert rushed over, wanting to fight him hand to hand!

hum~
Yarlin had a thick magma giant sword in his hand, and stabbed at Hobert, who was clutching his chest. Because the temperature was too high, his stab made the sound of cutting the air.

Unexpectedly, Hobart grabbed his magma greatsword with his bare hands, and sent his black knife towards Yarlin's heart.

Yarlin immediately let go of the hilt of his sword and quickly dodged it.

All of a sudden, Yarlin felt Hobert's aura suddenly soared, and he immediately felt a deadly threat.

Arlin then understood that Hobert had unsealed a certain sealed item.

This time, in order to deal with the possible dangers, Hobert brought two Level 1 Sealed Artifacts. One Sealed Artifact was a scepter that he kept on his body all the time, and the other Sealed Artifact came from a demigod of the "Rose School of Thought".

I dare not use the Sealed Artifacts of the "wrong" way indiscriminately. The fact that I didn't attract Amon when I used it for the first time doesn't mean that I will be so lucky in the future.

In order to facilitate the distinction, Hobert named this level 1 sealed item from the "Rose School of Thought" "1-103".

In fact, according to the naming convention of Sealed Artifacts, it should be named "1-003", but in that case, it is likely to reveal that the "creator" has very few Level 1 Sealed Artifacts, so it is simply named "103".

The appearance of "1-103" is a piece of human skin that moves around. Its ability is: "It can turn inanimate and spiritual objects into monster puppets. These monsters will undergo unknown mutations. Some can even have extraordinary abilities, some will be controlled by the holder, some will not be controlled by the holder, and some can even attract some powerful and evil gazes!"

The negative effect is: "As long as you wear it, you will become crazy and bloodthirsty, but you can retain most of your sanity. Only by killing a person can you release the state of wearing it. Wearing it for more than 5 minutes, there is a certain probability of suffering unknown curses. Some curses It turns the holder into a slug, some curses make the holder lose his mind, and some curses make the holder completely turn into a werewolf, but he can maintain the corresponding sanity. Even the Sequence 2 'Ancient Evil', there is no way to undo such a 'Transformation Curse'."

In other words, if you don't kill an opponent within 5 minutes, Hobert will most likely turn into a slug.

Just now, Hobert dared to "catch the white blade with bare hands" because he was affected by the sealed item, and his sanity was disconnected for a while. After the scorching giant sword escaped Arsen's control, it turned into a ball of orange-red of magma.

Hobert quickly withdrew his hand, but his hand was still severely burned.

But at this moment, Hobert didn't seem to know the pain. He only had one thought in his mind: kill someone!
Hobert's eyes were scarlet, and he rushed towards Yarlin with a knife.

At this time, the demons who were fighting out of control finally recovered gradually, but what greeted them was an army of monsters composed of some items.

There was a small basket that was suspended and placed on top of a demon's head.

The demon struggled to break free, but couldn't.

puff~
The basket imitated the "dragon's fart", allowing the devil to enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by farts.

A wall suddenly opened its arms and embraced a demon. The wall kept saying to itself: "I am a fossil, I am a fossil. Don't you believe it? Hehehe, there is something wrapped in me!"

A piece of clothing hanging in the yard suddenly "jumped" off the clothesline by itself, and soon it radiated golden light, entangled with a demon, and the demon screamed in pain.

The dress smiled and said, "You never expected that I am actually a sunflower, and the sun will follow me wherever I go!"

The devil who was scalded by the sun yelled: "Sunflowers always look for the sun, how can the sun look for sunflowers?"

A stick standing by the wall bounced to stab a demon in the ass, and the stick said slowly: "I, actually, am a shit-stirring stick!"

The tiles on the roof threw themselves at a demon, and they kept shouting, "I'm a dart! I'm a dart!"

slap~
The demon shattered a tile, and the tiles shouted: "Don't let the sacrifice of your compatriots be in vain! Go!"

The demon is covered in tiles.

Even the knife in Hobert's hand had life: "My friend! Your knife skills are too bad, look at mine!"

The black knife spun itself and slashed towards Yarlin.

Hobert quickly dodged back, the black knife's attack almost cut Hobert: "Chaos!"

Yarlin paused briefly, the black knife pierced his chest, and at the same time, he grabbed it hard, detonating Hobert's bloodthirsty desire.

"Twisted!" Hobart gradually regained more reason, and has been guarding against Yarlin.

He "distorted" the concept of himself and Yarlin, and made the other party bear half of the detonation of desire.

The veins on Hobert's face popped, his eyes became red, and he threw himself at the nearest demon.

The bloodthirsty desire defeated reason again, and he once again grabbed the demon's head with his bare hands!
The demon had a basket on its head, and it couldn't escape Hobert's attack at all.

Hobert twisted hard, only heard a "crack", and twisted the opponent's head 360 degrees: "Not one left! Cough cough cough, TMD, who farted? It stinks!"

He knew that the demon was not dead yet, so he continued to twist, once, twice, three times, and then pulled hard to pull out the demon's head.

The demon spraying dark red blood scratched his hands, as if he was looking for his head, but Hobert kicked his head out like a ball and hit another demon.

The headless demon stretched out his hand and grabbed it a few times before falling straight to the ground.

Yarlin was not much better, he was bloodthirsty and bloodthirsty, so he was no less affected than Hobert.

He punched what he thought was a fossil wall over there, and seeing a demon inside struggling to get out, he exclaimed, "It's really a fossil!"

As he spoke, a giant magma sword appeared in Yarlin's hand. He opened his posture and slashed across with the sword. Whether it was the wall that he thought was a fossil or the demon, they were all broken in the middle.

Hobert and Arlin, who each killed a life, have weakened their bloodthirsty state.

Hobert regained most of his sanity: "Corrosion!"

The dark souls of the surrounding demons were immediately corroded by this skill!The demon, who was defending against the strange monsters, immediately lost most of his sanity.

Some stand still and sing a song that no one has heard before, and let the monster poke his ass. At this moment, he is really crazy.

Some squatted on the ground and drew circles, letting the clothes that exuded the sun's breath wrap themselves: "Curse you!"

Even Yarlin hugged the demon's upper body, which he had amputated at the waist: "How about we have a dance?"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Hobert quickly took off "1-103" and sealed it again: "Why is this battle so weird?"

He hurried to pick up the black knife not far away, ready to kill the demons while they were temporarily irrational.

Hobert had long guessed that "corrosion" must be the most effective means of attack against demons.

So when he found himself surrounded, he began to corrupt the hearts of the demons.

It's just that Hobert was affected by the Sealed Artifact, and his IQ was occasionally offline. It wasn't until he recovered most of his sanity this time that he recalled his arrangement for "corrosion".

Before Hubert rushed to Yarlin, he felt a huge attack of malice.

It seemed that an invisible tentacle was entwining Hobert's emotions and desires.

Hobert immediately used "Flash" to recover the "Runaway Stone", and then took the demon corpse whose head had been twisted off by him, and used "Travel" to leave.

After Hobert's figure disappeared, three or four seconds later, an expressionless middle-aged man came out of the shadows. He glanced at the ugly "demons" and said, "Idiot!"

At this time, Yarlin was the first to regain his sanity. He left the half corpse he was holding just now, and returned to the state of an ordinary person: "Bishop Bowen!"

Although the power of the demons was passed down through the family, they formed a loose "Blood Worship Cult" together, so even if Yarlin and Bowen were related, they still called each other the Archbishop.

Bowen glanced at the "monsters" who had gradually lost their vitality, and turned back into clothes, sticks and ordinary tiles: "You were the one who summoned me just now?"

As soon as Yarlin felt that the momentum was wrong, he immediately summoned the demigod, but this convenient summoning could only be used at close range. Fortunately, the demigod did not leave Nankelsen tonight.

He said: "Your Excellency, the archbishop, before the battle started, I did not feel a fatal threat from the opponent."

If he sensed that Hobert was carrying a level 1 sealed item, Yarlin would definitely watch his companion being killed from a distance, and then design a trap to deal with Hobert.

Bowen took a deep breath: "His seal on the sealed item is very special, so you didn't perceive it in advance."

At this time, more and more demons regained their senses, and they ended their "demonization" state one after another, becoming ordinary people one by one.

Bowen glanced at the wound on Yarlin's body. He sneered and said, "This wound is unusual. If you don't want to die, don't move."

Without waiting for Yarlin's answer, Bowen scratched towards the wound, and a stream of thick magma emerged from Yarlin's body.

The magma cooled immediately after falling to the ground, and exuded a breath of death.

Yarlin felt that part of his soul had been grabbed out. He knelt down on the ground weakly, sweating profusely, trying to mend the wounds of his spirit body: "Thank you, Archbishop."

The demon, who was stabbed with a stick just now, asked, "Archbishop, should we go to the other side and kill that nasty baron?"

Bowen sneered and said, "He is the chosen one. Without our help, he will fall into the endless abyss sooner or later!"

……

Hobert was surprised to find that he did not return to his own territory, but came to the room of Knight Keton.

At this time, the Extraordinary characteristics in Keton's body have been precipitated, and it is an "arbitrator" Extraordinary characteristic.

Hobert knew that Keton was a Sequence 9 Extraordinary, but in order to attack one of the demons faster, he left without having time to speed up the precipitation of Extraordinary characteristics.

Hobert threw the headless demon corpse on the ground, and after a little thought, he understood what was going on: this is the negative effect of "1-104"!

“1-104”就是霍伯特一直带在身上的权杖，“1-101”是错误途径的1级封印物，“1-102”是另一件来自“玫瑰学派”的1级封印物。

Although Hobert didn't use "1-104" this time, he also lifted its seal, so he was naturally affected by its negative effects.

One of the negative effects of the scepter is that it will make the holder extremely greedy. Fortunately, "1-104" was re-sealed by Hobert using the power of "Nation of Disorder".

It will only become more greedy within 10 minutes of use, and will not be "abnormally greedy".

So Hobart will return to Keton unconsciously, wanting to pick up his Extraordinary characteristics, and by the way, see if there is anything valuable here.

It's all here, and of course he can't leave empty-handed. Hobert picked up Keton's extraordinary characteristics, and then used the "psychic wine glass" to channel the demon's corpse.

Coming to the psychic space made of gray fog again, a man about 30 years old stood in front of Hobert. He stared ahead with his eyes lost.

Hobert asked: "Why did the abyss give Hobert a gift?"

"..."

After asking seven times in a row, the gray mist in front of Hobert's eyes parted, and a sacrificial scene in a cave appeared.

There is a lot of magma gushing out of the cave, and there are bloody "sacrifices" still twitching on the altar.

A middle-aged man wearing a sacrificial robe with an expressionless face stood in front of the altar and said, "Our priest has finally pleased 'Abyss'! Grand Duke Lei Zhe's thoughts are correct! 'Abyss' is our 'Devil King'!
"He is trapped somewhere and needs our sacrifices to provide him with the strength to get out of the predicament, so as long as we insist on offering sacrifices to the 'Abyss', our king will be able to return to the earth!"

After the cheers of the demons, the demon asked: "Your Excellency, what instructions did the 'Abyss' give us?"

The archbishop said: "'Abyss' told me that tomorrow a baron named Hobert will come to the Viscount Teutonic's residence for a banquet, and we will give the 'King Ring' to Hobert!"

"'King's Ring'? My God, that's a ring that Kings used to wear!"

"That's right." The archbishop with no expression said with a sneer, "Hobert is the person chosen by 'Abyss', and he can help 'Abyss' get out of trouble."

Another asked: "Is Hobert a demon too?"

The archbishop sneered: "His spirit body and life are useful to the 'Abyss'!"

At the end of the psychic scene, Hobert folded his arms and thought about it: "They have been offering sacrifices to the "Abyss". If it is sex, then these sacrifices pointing to the "Abyss" are also tantamount to pointing to Farbouti.

"But why does "Abyss" know my movements so clearly? Is it just because of the effect of that oil painting?"

Then Hobert was a little strange, why didn't anti-divination or anti-psychic treatment be done for such an important plan?
After thinking for a while, after not getting the answer he wanted, Hobert asked the spirit body in front of him again: "What do you know about 'Abyss'?"

"..."

After asking seven times in a row, the psychic scene changed many times, and the scenes of the other party talking about "the abyss" with their companions flashed one after another.

Most of the demons don't know as much about the "Abyss" as Hobart, they only know that it is their god.

Through their talk about the abyss, Hobert learned some inside information about Blood Worship Cult. More than 1000 years ago, after the appearance of the "dark side of the universe", there was a huge disagreement among the top leaders of Blood Worship Cult.

Some high-level demons believe that it is the incarnation of the "demon king", and they should offer sacrifices to the "dark side of the universe" and show their allegiance to him.

And more advanced demons claim that they have been instructed by the "demon king" that the "dark side of the universe" is not him, so everyone should not believe in the "dark side of the universe".

This part of the demons later diverged, and some continued to believe in the "demon king" Farbouti, because the "demon king" would occasionally respond to their sacrifices.

Some began to believe in the "Abyss" directly, thinking that as long as their sacrifices pointed to the uniqueness of the Abyss, they could still get in touch with the "Evil King".Moreover, they believed that the "Demon Lord" had obviously encountered some kind of predicament. If they offered sacrifices directly to the "Abyss", they could effectively bypass the forces that plagued the "Demon Lord" and directly contact their gods.

Seeing that the demon's spirit body had begun to fade, Hobert immediately asked, "All the information about the Blood Worship Cult's Sequence 5 in South Colson and that demigod!"

"..."

After reciting silently seven times in a row, the appearance of Sequence 5 and that demigod appeared successively, as well as their names, or some information about them.

That demigod was called Bowen, who was the archbishop who presided over the sacrifice before.

In addition, instead of three Sequence 5s, there are five Sequence 5s. Three of them are Yarlin who likes to smirk, Sandy who looks a bit dull, and Gloria, a female demon with a voluptuous figure.

There are also two Sequence 5 demons whom I have never seen before. I only know their names are Wordsworth and Weitz.

The demon's spirit body was already very weak, and Hobert, with an attitude of not wasting it, asked the demon's "Abyss" path potion formula.

But only when the potion formula of Sequence 7 was presented, the spirit body completely dissipated, and Hobert was forced to quit the psychic.

Hobart sped up the speed at which the Extraordinary characteristics were precipitated, and then simply searched for it at Keton Knight.

When he was about to leave, Hobert had a thought, found a rope, hung Ketton's body on the so-called "sacrifice tree", and wrote "bad governance" on his body dipped in blood. "This phrase.

Then he used "travel" to return to his room. Hobert first took what he got tonight, a Sequence 6 "demon", an "arbiter" Extraordinary characteristic, and the "1-103" which is not usually used. "Sacrifice to the "land of disorder".

Then I went back to the real world, pondered the information I got from the psychic, and fell asleep amidst the thinking and guessing.

Asleep and asleep, Hobert clearly felt that some power had invaded his dreams. Since Hobert was polluted by foreign gods last time and almost died in his dreams, he would carry the "Order Crystal" every day to make bracelet to sleep.

The bracelet of the "Crystal of Order" will keep Hobart awake in his dreams, and he can use the power of the "Nation of Disorder" to wake him up at any time.

In the dream, Hobert was walking on a beautiful meadow. At the end of the meadow, there was a black hall that gave people a great sense of oppression.

There is a sea of ​​flowers in the main hall, and there is a stone throne in the sea of ​​flowers.

Hobert entered the hall and came to the throne. He recalled that this was the hall deep in the oil painting, and there was also a sea of ​​flowers and a throne in that hall.

The difference is that on the throne in Hobert's dream at this time, a thin middle-aged man with short hair and a short beard is sitting.

The middle-aged man was wearing a classical costume, and his two thin and long arms rested on the armrests of the throne.

He has the aura of a king, looking down at Hobart expressionlessly like a sculpture: "Freguera has divined you, descendant of Trensost! You will help me out of trouble, help me get rid of my Greatest enemy!"

Hobert smiled and said, "With my body occupied?"

He guessed that the other party should be "Demon King" Farbouti.

The tone of the middle-aged man on the throne is a bit like a magic stick: "Even if I don't take the initiative to find you, you will defeat my greatest enemy in the future.

"Now I take the initiative to find you, because I need you to do me a favor."

"What are you busy with?"

"Kill those nasty demons on the other side!"
