Shen You, of course, ignored Belial's reaction. To him, it didn't matter whether they were familiar or not; all he needed to know was that the other was a dark and evil villain, a walking experience point. Just take him down, that was the right thing to do.
He raised his right palm, conjuring a palm cannon. But then, a sinister shadow appeared behind the mobile armor, a twisted form creeping silently closer.
"Watch out!" That was the shout from Raven, who had followed him upstairs.
However, if he waited until she spoke before reacting, it would undoubtedly be too late. Shen You had already sensed something was wrong, and as if he had eyes in the back of his head, he fired a palm strike. Belial, who was trying to sneak up on him from behind, took the hit squarely in the chest, his smoking body crashing through the wall behind him and tumbling down into the outer corridor amidst a pile of bricks and dust.
At the same time, Belial, who had been standing with his hands behind his back in front of Shen You, vanished into thin air.
It turned out that what was left there was an illusion. The demon, of course, knew that there was no reason to hold back when meeting an enemy; his words were merely to attract Shen You's attention so that he could launch a sneak attack from behind.
Of course, it seems the plan isn't going very smoothly.
Seeing that his plan had been foiled, Belial roared, spread his wings, and soared into the night.
Shen You, relentless, activated his thrusters to the fullest and accelerated into the air to catch up.
Two sonic booms erupted, transparent shockwaves exploding twice in the night sky. The demon and the armored warriors broke the sound barrier one after the other, engaging in a supersonic attack and defense in mid-air.
At this moment, the comprehensive upgrade in mobility of the second-generation armor became apparent. Combined with Shen You's own superhuman reaction speed, the armor easily evaded the magical impact thrown back by Belial using various somersaults, short-range propulsion, and other special techniques, while launching a series of counterattacks from all directions.
In an instant, dazzling light effects crisscrossed the night sky, and missiles exploded one after another, turning into fireworks. The dazzling lights intertwined, and the sounds of artillery fire and magic created a deafening shattering sound.
"Get out of my way!"
Having been hit repeatedly, Belial was now covered in wounds. He roared angrily, spun around in mid-air, and flew backward in a backstroke-like motion, his wings flapping rapidly. At the same time, he crossed his palms, and a huge, intricately patterned magic circle opened in his palms, unleashing black flames like a jet-black fire dragon towards Shen You!
Shen You extended his left palm, and with a twist of his hand, the emanating light energy instantly formed a circular barrier, protecting him like a shield. A continuous stream of fire dragons surged across the light shield, while black flames licked at it.
A miniature version of the Ultra Barrier, it is also a universal skill. Shen You weaponized this skill when upgrading the second-generation armor. The armor has multiple output ports that can support the release of the barrier, and with a little more energy consumption, it can even cover the entire body like a force field.
Just like it is now.
The light energy accelerated, and a barrier rapidly formed, enveloping him like a transparent bubble. The black flames of magic continued to surge forth. Shen You raised his right palm, and the light energy converged, quickly transforming into a swirling halo of light, entwined with wisps of azure lightning.
Eight points of light!
The light wheel was thrown out with unstoppable momentum, splitting the black flame dragon in two!
Belial's pupils contracted, and he frantically flapped his wings, desperately trying to dodge. Although he barely avoided a fatal blow, his left black wing was still severed on the spot by the halo, turning into black smoke and dissipating into the night.
The wingless demon let out a low growl and fell helplessly, crashing onto a rooftop with a loud thud, shattering the top floor of the attic into pieces.
Shen You followed closely behind and landed lightly. A dark claw struggled to emerge from the ruins. Belial, panting heavily, crawled out inch by inch. He looked up and saw the arm pointing at him with a clenched fist, a bullet mounted on the gauntlet.
Belial froze.
Covered in wounds and with one wing cut off, he looked half-dead. Knowing that all was lost, he simply gave up, lay down, and laughed heartily.
"You think you've won? You know absolutely nothing. The door has been found, and ultimate terror is about to descend; no one can stop it."
boom!
The Specium warhead exploded head-on, and Belial was instantly engulfed in a burst of flames.
Shen You calmly raised his arm, and the arm armor was retracted into the hanger.
"So much nonsense."
Almost at the same moment, Laurie, who was left in the abandoned building, suddenly shuddered.
He could feel that the connection between himself and the great being he had summoned had been severed.
Laurie began to tremble uncontrollably.
isn't it?
Back when he was desperate, he sought refuge with a powerful figure in the underworld. However, all three of his former associates collapsed, earning him the nickname "Boss Killer."
He was quite dissatisfied with this at the time.
What boss killer? Those so-called big shots are just too incompetent. It's all coincidence; I was just unlucky!
He was determined to find a powerful patron to climb to the top and make those who had once mocked him look at him with new respect!
To his utter surprise, he found a powerful, otherworldly evil god to rely on, and now that evil god is presumably dead.
At this moment, he watched as the little girl named Raven gracefully walked up to him, her snow-white hand outstretched, fingers pointing at his face, a magic circle swirling in her palm.
Laurie stood there, stunned, staring at the strange magic circle.
Am I really...
Thoughts were interrupted.
The next moment, he felt himself being swallowed up by boundless darkness.
Chapter 72 Where are the people?
Raven slowly stood up and looked at Chris and his two underlings, who were fast asleep against the wall.
“I made them forget what happened today,” Raven said. “When they wake up, they’ll feel like they had a very long dream, but they won’t remember what it was.”
"Wow, that's amazing." Kara watched admiringly from behind. "Raven, are you a wizard?"
"It's a long story for me."
"It's alright, there's still a long night ahead."
The two turned around at the sound and saw Shen You, who had finished dealing with the demon, flying back and landing lightly on the floor in his armor.
“I’m fine,” Raven sighed softly. “Let me start from the beginning.”
It was indeed a long story, but Shen You already knew the general outline. However, the origins of the raven varied slightly across different worlds and versions, so Shen You still wanted to hear her elaborate.
To talk about the origin of the raven, we naturally have to start with the story of the Three Palaces Demon, the pile driver of the heavens. In the past, the Three Palaces Demon conjured up a handsome face that perfectly matched the way of heaven, and seduced a girl named Angela to spend a night with him.
After the girl became pregnant, she discovered she had been deceived. She attempted suicide by deleting her alternate account (Sangoku) but failed and was transported to a sacred dimension called "Azarath." There, Raven was born and grew up, learning to control her innate magic.
From a young age, she was told about her origins by the priests of the temple, and knew that she was destined to confront her father, and that she would be the last line of defense against her demonic father in front of the entire world.
So while Raven's origin story is a bit old, it does somehow resonate with certain trendy "filial piety" elements popular in modern works. In any version, it always ends with Raven brutally beating up his father in a "ready for a .JPG" style animation.
Geed listened in silence, while Bei Laohei wept. The neighboring Knight Shed, Shijima, had just sent a congratulatory telegram overnight on behalf of the Father's Avengers Alliance.
When Raven was in her teens, the goddess who protected Azarath died. The remaining nuns were all masters of rhetoric, but their combat record was zero to five. Even if they all teamed up, their combined strength would barely reach five. So, the priests figured that if the Three Palaces came looking for them, they would probably be in trouble, so they simply kicked Raven to Earth.
That's why she's here now.
“I could smell my father’s scent on that demon just now,” Raven said uneasily. “That means they’ve taken notice of this world. Sooner or later, they’ll be back.”
“But wasn’t he already killed?” Kara asked.
Raven shook his head: "No. Their true forms can't easily come to this world; it's just an avatar. If Sannomiya notices I'm on Earth..."
Kara patted her on the back, trying to comfort her new friend: "But you just said that demons can't come here easily?"
“Yes, but he will use me,” Raven said somberly. “I almost lost control when I was in Azarath. I had a nightmare and felt terrified and helpless. My magic was unconsciously activated in my sleep, and when I woke up, the priest told me that I almost summoned the Trinity to destroy Azarath.”
Kara froze, giving a look of surprise.
Then he immediately cast an inquiring glance at Shen You.
It's like saying, why not ask the amazing Ultraman?
At least so far, Kara feels like there's nothing he can't do.
“Perhaps there is a way,” Shen You said. “I know a very powerful wizard who might be able to solve your problem.”
Raven sighed and shook his head: "I grew up in Azarath since I was a child. For so many years they have tried to help me control my emotions and magic to prevent me from going berserk, but in the end I still ended up here."
Shen You smiled: "No offense intended. But the wizard I'm taking you to see is not on the same level as those priests."
Raven blinked, a look of confusion on his face.
Another world, a chaotic dimension.
Belial slowly opened his eyes, a fierce glint in them.
“You abominable being of light,” the demon gritted his teeth.
Another shadow appeared in the darkness behind them.
"How come you're dead again?" the man asked coldly.
“What do you mean ‘again’?” Belial retorted. “Watch your tone, Saraca.”
Saraca was also a son of the Third Prince. However, it is well known that the Third Prince's children did not get along well.
"Is there anything wrong with what you said? Aren't you zero-two now?" Saraca retorted.
"I...I was careless. Who would have thought my dim-witted follower would run into that strange Person of Light again? Otherwise, I wouldn't have been arrested the moment I stepped out."
"So you actually fell for the same person as last time?" Saraca frowned. "Did you find out who he was this time?"
"As soon as I went out, he started throwing spells at me. Then I flew away, then he chased me, and then... I came back here." Belial spread his paws. "What could I do?"
Saraca: "."
Belial: "."
Before the other party could show even more contempt for him, Belial hurriedly continued, "But! This time there was an unexpected bonus!"
He narrowed his eyes as he spoke and gave a cold laugh.
"Oh?"
"I've discovered a father whose offspring are completely wild!"
Saraka narrowed her eyes: "Are you sure?"
They all knew, of course, what it meant to have a child of the Third Prince. It would be the key to their father's arrival in a completely new dimension, meaning that yet another world would submit to the Third Prince.
“Of course,” Belial sneered. “It’s been so easy. I’ve already marked her magical characteristics, and now, by starting with her, a new dimension will fall into the hands of our great father!”
"Indeed, this is a great achievement."
Saraka's attitude also made a complete 180-degree turn, and his tolerance for his zero-bar teammates seemed to have increased.
The two demons exchanged a glance, then simultaneously curled their lips into a low, sinister laugh.
"Hmm, she really is Sannomiya's daughter. So powerful, and so evil, it's hard not to recognize her with these magical characteristics."
The old wizard stroked his long beard and frowned as he spoke.
"Oh? Is there no way to help her?" Kara asked worriedly.
