Chapter 383 Hellfire

Heaven and earth can bear witness, Gabriel truly did not do it on purpose.

If Mammon were truly a spy planted by Heaven, she would have already riddled Mammon's back with holes by now, instead of waiting until now to make her move.

But it's no use saying anything now.

Facts speak louder than words. In her haste, she pulled Mammon aside to block the holy water. If she said it wasn't intentional, even she wouldn't believe it.

Du Mu was overjoyed to see Gabriel being kicked and sent flying. Without the slightest hesitation, he instantly transformed into a blur and pounced forward, thrusting out the Spear of Longinus like a sharp ray of light.

The Spear of Longinus could even kill Jesus, so Gabriel dared not be careless.

Ignoring the corrosive evil energy within her body, she forcefully channeled holy light to her severed right arm. Her bones and muscles rapidly reassembled and regenerated within the holy light, returning to their original state in an instant.

She conjured a lightsaber in each hand, crossed them in front of her, and blocked the spearheads that were thrusting towards her.

clang--!

The moment the spear tip clashed with the twin swords, a visible shockwave exploded outwards in a ring.

The clouds high in the sky were instantly torn apart, and the violent wind pressure pressed down from the sky, causing the exterior walls of buildings on the ground to crumble and fall, and dust filled the streets.

Gabriel felt her arms go numb from the shock, as an incredibly powerful force pressed down on her through the lightsaber, forcing her to retreat repeatedly.

She gritted her teeth, exerted force with both hands to deflect the spear tips, and the two lightsabers flashed with scorching white light, swirling towards Du Mu's right hand holding the severed arm, attempting to snatch back the Spear of Longinus.

Du Mu cleaved the light and shadow with a backhand thrust of his spear, then moved forward to engage in close combat.

A human and an angel crisscrossed at high speed in the sky, their white and gray-black light and shadow constantly colliding in the air. Each collision exploded into a dazzling ball of light, and a muffled roar traveled dozens of kilometers along the clouds, causing the surrounding air to be slightly distorted.

On the ground, Los Angeles police had already arrived at the scene after being alerted.

However, the battle between Du Mu and his men was too intense, and the citizens in the surrounding area suddenly left en masse for some unknown reason, so the police simply stayed on the perimeter and set up a cordon, and no one dared to approach.

A few fearless media outlets attempted to approach the battlefield in helicopters, only to find that their cameras couldn't capture any useful footage; they didn't even know where to shoot.

As it turns out, the idea that a passerby in anime can keep up with high-speed battles with the naked eye and even comment on them while watching is completely unscientific.

When the speed reaches a certain level, from the perspective of an ordinary person, at most they can see the aftershocks of various battles, and it is impossible to see the figures of people moving at high speed, let alone the battle itself.

Soon, Du Mu firmly gained the upper hand in the battle.

Relying on his immortality as an invincible buff, he simply abandoned most of his defense, only needing to protect the Spear of Longinus from being taken away, and unleashed all his firepower, overwhelming Gabriel to the point that he was almost powerless to fight back.

Having lost the Spear of Longinus, the power of the human realm's barrier has rebounded against Gabriel. Her power is steadily declining, and without the suppression of holy light, the evil energy within her body is taking the opportunity to run rampant. Her overall condition is deteriorating, and she is clearly at her last gasp.

Du Mu allowed Gabriel's lightsaber to pierce his body, and with a backhand thrust of his spear, he pierced straight through her left shoulder.

Gabriel grunted and abruptly stopped.

Immediately following, two golden bolts of lightning shot out from Du Mu's eyes, sweeping fiercely across her wing roots, severing large sections of her wings, which then drifted to the ground.

Seeing that he was about to collapse, Gabriel turned to Mammon in the distance and shouted, "Come help! Without me, your plan still won't succeed!"

Mammon had just taken a holy bath and his whole body was being eroded by a holy power. His condition was no better than Gabriel's. In addition, being used as a shield by Gabriel earlier made him wary.

Seeing Gabriel being beaten so badly, and considering the temptation to turn the world into hell, Mammon hesitated for a few moments, but still urged his dark energy to step forward and help.

Seeing this, Du Mu decisively abandoned Gabriel, turned around and pretended to attack Mammon, shouting at the same time, "Archangel, this fool actually believed it! Let's take him down now!"

Mammon was already feeling uneasy, and upon hearing this, he immediately stopped in his tracks, turned around, and ran away without looking back.

"Don't even think about trying to fool me!"

"Mammon, you stupid bastard, I'll fuck your bastard, you motherfucker!"

When Gabriel saw that Mammon had actually escaped, he could no longer suppress the negative emotions surging in his mind, and a series of encrypted telegrams burst out of his mouth.

It's clear that she's learned the local customs quite well during her years in the human world.

Ignoring Mammon's escape, Du Mu turned back to pursue Gabriel again, lowering his voice to say, "Archangel, good acting. Keep it up, trick him into coming back!"

Although his voice was soft, every word reached Mammon's ears, and he immediately ran even faster.

"Do you really think I'm stupid? I'm very clever, I won't be fooled by you!"

Seeing this, Gabriel suddenly smiled with relief, but in reality, he was at his wit's end.

She sighed, "I was wrong. I shouldn't have trusted a devil."

It really proves the saying: it's not the god-like opponents you should fear, but the pig-like teammates.

With his spirits broken, Gabriel's struggles weakened considerably.

Du Mu seized the opportunity, and two golden bolts of lightning shot into her eyes, striking her directly in the chest. The immense force dragged her from the sky to the ground, blasting out a bottomless crater.

Du Mu descended from the sky, stepping on Gabriel's chest and pressing the Spear of Longinus firmly against her throat.

"Gabriel, you've lost. It seems God isn't on your side."

At this moment, Gabriel was covered in wounds, his white robe was tattered, and his wings were either broken or charred. He was no longer the dignified archangel he once was.

She lay in the pit, having lost the strength to resist, and her whole being calmed down.

"This is fate, I accept it."

Pfft!

Without hesitation, Du Mu brought down the Spear of Longinus.

The divine light in Gabriel's eyes dimmed little by little, and his body quickly became still. Then, it transformed into countless tiny white lights that floated into the sky and eventually disappeared.

The number of angels in Heaven is fixed. Even if Gabriel is killed, he will at most return to Heaven and will not truly perish.

"Is that all?"

Mammon was stunned when he saw Gabriel disappear.

Even if it's acting, there's no need to put in so much effort, right?

Mammon's heart skipped a beat, and he belatedly realized that he might have really misunderstood Gabriel; the other party was not a spy from Heaven.

Instead of reflecting on his actions, he complained, "It's all Gabriel's fault for not explaining things clearly earlier, which caused me to misunderstand."

Gabriel: "@#%￥#@"

But by the time Mammon realized what was happening, it was too late.

With his only ally gone, he was now left to face Du Mu alone.

But his performance was even worse than Gabriel's.

Du Mu's light attribute naturally counters the dark attribute, and he also has the protection of the Fire-Repelling Pearl, which makes him immune to hellfire. Mammon's two ultimate moves are completely useless in front of Du Mu.

To make matters worse, he also had a powerful debuff on him, which significantly reduced his combat effectiveness.

The outcome of the battle was never in doubt from the very beginning.

Du Mu didn't even use any fancy fighting techniques; he relied purely on close-quarters combat, punching Mammon to the ground in less than a few dozen rounds.

At this moment, Mammon's two horns were forcibly ripped off, the trident in his hand was broken into three pieces, and the left and right horns were gone at some point, leaving only a lonely pole in the middle. Anyone who didn't know better would think he was holding a spear.

He looked at Du Mu, whose body had been cleaved into hundreds of pieces yet remained lively and energetic, with a look of disbelief at the existence of a demon.

Is this really a human being?

Why does it feel like it looks even more abstract than this demon?

Just as Du Mu was about to send Mammon back to hell with one punch, a voice suddenly came from afar.

"Spare the demon with your fist!"

I don't even need to turn around to know it's that Constantine guy.

As early as when Du Mu began to mock and provoke Gabriel and Mammon, Constantine had already quietly slipped away, found a safe place to hide, and planned to make his move when the time was right.

But to his utter surprise, Du Mu was far stronger than he had imagined, actually killing Gabriel and crippling Mammon with his bare hands.

It turns out that Du Mu's claim of absolute advantage was not just boasting.

Seeing that Du Mu was also about to send Mammon away, he had no choice but to jump out and stop him.

Constantine rushed over and said quickly, "This body belongs to Angela. If he dies, Angela, as the vessel, will also die."

Du Mu was a little surprised: "You scumbag, you actually worry about this?"

Constantine coughed lightly, looking a little embarrassed: "Actually, I still have a lot of feelings for Angela, but I'm worried that she'll be implicated and hurt because of me, so I'm deliberately keeping my distance from her."

Du Mu rolled his eyes.

Why aren't you worried that your friends will be implicated and harmed?

Mammon burst into laughter: "He's right. If I die, I'll at most go back to hell, but the owner of this body will die with me, unless I willingly leave this body, which is impossible. If you have the guts, then kill me!"

"Hahahaha...Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"

Mammon was laughing wildly, his mouth wide open, when Du Mu seized the opportunity and spat directly into it.

His face turned green instantly, and he started spitting wildly.

This saliva is poisonous, mixed with magic of the light attribute.

Constantine, who was standing to the side, turned green with rage.

He didn't even put his saliva into Angela's mouth; Du Mu beat him to it.

Du Mu looked at Mammon with disdain: "You really think I can't deal with you just because you're in a body? You probably didn't tell your father you were coming out this time, did you? If Satan finds out you've trespassed on Earth and are trying to set up your own new Hell, what do you think he'll do to you?"

Mammon trembled upon hearing this.

Whether it's the human world or hell, there's no more than one effective way to deal with your mischievous kid who likes to cause trouble.

That is to fight.

What's more, his father is Satan, and his methods of dealing with people go far beyond just physical pain.

If Satan knew that he had been causing chaos on Earth, breaking the rules of the game between himself and God, and losing face, he would make him wish he were dead.

Mammon never expected that Du Mu would resort to such a low-level tactic as calling the parents.

What's even more infuriating is that this trick actually works.

Mammon steeled himself and said coldly, "Do you think Satan is someone you can just summon whenever you want? Stop bluffing."

""

Du Mu chuckled and pointed to Constantine beside him: "Don't forget, I have a Satan summoner by my side."

That's right!

Mammon suddenly remembered that his father had long coveted Constantine's soul and had declared that he would personally come to escort him after his death.

Du Mu reached out and placed his hand on the back of Constantine's neck, his tone sinister: "If I were to kill him right now, do you think Satan would immediately show himself?"

"Calm down!" *2

Two voices rang out at the same time.

Mammon and Constantine exchanged a glance, and the two who had been at odds just moments before instantly stood on the same side.

Mammon pleaded, "He's your comrade. Won't your conscience bother you if you kill him?"

Constantine nodded vigorously beside him: "Yes, yes, we can talk things out. There's no need to resort to knives and guns."

Du Mu grinned: "Constantine, sacrificing yourself to summon Satan for the safety of humanity is a great act of merit; it might even guarantee you a direct ride to Heaven."

Constantine's eyes lit up; it seemed to make some sense.

He immediately changed his stance and said expectantly, "Hurry up and kill me! What does my life matter for the sake of peace on earth!"

""

"Madmen! You humans are all madmen!"

Mammon's lips twitched. There wasn't a single normal person in this world; they were all insane. The people of hell were much more honest and simple.

The next moment, the blackness in his eyes quickly faded, his gaze slowly returned to clarity, and he finally transformed back into Angela, his head lolling to the side as he fainted.

Mammon has logged off.

The quest "Child of the Demon" has been completed.

[Item: Energy Storage Gem (One-time use item; can absorb all energy; can automatically absorb or release energy once the limit is reached)]

take off!!

Du Mu stared wide-eyed at the mission rewards.

The rewards this time are extremely generous; not a single one is lacking.

First is the Water-Repelling Bead. This thing needs no introduction. It has the same characteristic as the Fire-Repelling Bead, making it a perfect counter to opponents who play with water.

Angel wings—they were clearly left behind by Gabriel during the battle just now, and the ruthless system used them on the spot.

However, he was also curious about what angel wings tasted like, as his favorite barbecue item was chicken wings.

As for the energy storage gem, it is also a good item. It can be used as a shield to absorb damage, or it can be directly refined, or even the damage can be reflected back. The effect is quite practical.

Then there's the Hellfire skill.

Du Mu was no stranger to this.

In Marvel comics, he saw a superhero named Ghost Rider who possessed this ability.

Not only is it incredibly powerful, but it's also incredibly cool.

Any weapon or vehicle in the enemy's hands is like having a Hellfire skin added, instantly boosting its coolness level to the max.
