Crossover Anime: Offering Myself as a Sacrifice to the Sword? I Choose to Be the Great Demon King

Just as Sheila was about to take out the Shangri-La to escape, a wind blade swept past and neatly severed Sheila's arm.

Perhaps it was Yanxin's dying wish, or perhaps it was the Imperial Arms' desire to avenge its master, that made Moli wield the scimitar with particular ease, and the wind blades he fired were much faster than before.

"How could that be? I won't lose! I absolutely won't lose!"

Sheila went into a frenzy. Just as he was about to pick up Shangri-La from the ground with his other hand, the Vacuum Blade struck again, severing his other arm as well.

The immense pain caused Sheila to howl in agony; having lost both arms, he was no longer able to fight.

Mo Li slowly stood up, jumped down from the tree, and walked to Sheila.

Picking up the Shangri-La that had fallen to the ground, Mo Li's eyes were filled with contempt. How could such trash be ranked among the top few of the forty-eight Imperial Arms?

Just as Mo Li was about to destroy it on the spot, the system's voice appeared in time to stop Mo Li's actions.

"Ding! Special item detected, recyclable, worth 10,000 Demon King Points!"

The system's voice startled Mo Li. This kind of trash was actually worth 10,000 Demon King Points? That was too illogical.

"Hey, System, where were you when I obtained the Imperial Arms?"

"Only special items can be recycled. The items you obtained before were just ordinary items and have no recycling value. Shangri-La is a space item and can be purchased from the system shop."

Wow, now even the system is picking and choosing the goods? They don't even want the ordinary ones. 820, that's so user-friendly.

Mo Li couldn't help but feel curious about what exactly constituted a special type of prop.

"For example, Esdeath's Ice Imperial Arm, Bulang's Demon Possession, and Nishimiya's World Encyclopedia: Longo Longo are all special-type items!"

"Wait, I know Esdeath can stop time and space, so why is being possessed by demons included?"

"Possessed by Evil Spirits is an unrestricted evolution type Imperial Arm, which can adapt to any environment as it evolves."

"Wow, it's that good! Isn't it a bit of a waste to give it to Brand?"

Mo Li couldn't help but think of Tatsumi's performance in the original work, and silently nodded. His value was even higher than Esdeath's Devil Essence.

Should I ask Brand's Teigu for it back before I leave? At least it would be some kind of income.

The value of a special Imperial Arm is already comparable to that of a goddess.

Right, Mo Li suddenly remembered the last Imperial Arm that the system mentioned, which he seemed to have never heard of before.

"Who is that Xigong? And what is the purpose of the World Encyclopedia, Longo Longo?"

"The book-shaped Imperial Arms contains maps of the world, especially within the Empire, detailing everything from products to locations. It even includes prophecies of massive natural disasters that may occur in the future on the last page."

Mo Li stroked his chin. This was practically a simplified version of the Confession Manual, only much less advanced in terms of functionality.

Seeing Mo Li deep in thought, Sheila, who was lying on the ground, had a glint in her eyes. This was a golden opportunity.

Sheila bit the dagger at her waist and swiftly slashed it towards Moli's neck.

The next moment, Sheila's head was hung from the treetop, her unwilling gaze fixed on her own corpse.

At this point, all members of the Wild Hounds are dead!

Chapter 289 Prince's Battle Strategy: Smoke Without Injury

After Mo Li sold the Shangri-La to the system for 10,000 Demon King Points, he was about to go back to pick up Hei Tong and the other two when a sound of explosion suddenly came from the palace.

Looking up, lightning bolts were falling from the sky from time to time, striking the very spot where the battle had taken place.

Mo Li frowned slightly. The only person he could think of who could manipulate lightning was probably General Bude.

However, the old man's appearance at this particular moment, rather than earlier or later, made Mo Li suspicious of his purpose—whether he was using him to eliminate Sheila and the others.

Thinking of this, Mo Li no longer hesitated and ran quickly towards the battlefield. He couldn't let Bud disband the hunters that he had finally managed to gather.

Inside the palace, Bud was manipulating a lightning ball to attack Black Eye and Will.

The ground was riddled with craters and charred black, clearly indicating that it had been struck by lightning.

Lan flew in the sky, providing cover for Black Eyes and Will, and occasionally shooting feathers at Bud.

Even with the three of them working together, they were at a disadvantage against Bud. After losing the puppet from the Eighth Chamber, Kurohime's abilities returned to their peak, but Bud's constitution was also terrifying.

"You wicked villains who oppose the Empire, accept the punishment of my Imperial Arms [Thunder God's Wrath - Admirer]!"

"Uncle, your blind loyalty will one day ruin you!"

"It's a pity you won't live to see that day, Will. Go to hell along with the name 'Hunter'!"

Bud used all his strength to punch Will in the stomach. The impact of the lightning sent Will flying back against the palace wall, creating a large hole.

Bud originally admired Will's talent. He had only ever thought highly of two people in his life, one of whom was the former "Kazuma Sato," but unfortunately, he heard that Esdeath had let him go.

The other one is Will, who fits Bud's criteria for choosing people perfectly in terms of both strength and personality. However, after Esdeath's betrayal, his talent became a threat.

Faced with a threat that could endanger the Empire, Bud only had one thing to do: kill him.

Will felt as if his internal organs had been struck by a heavy blow. If it weren't for the protection of the noble chariot, that punch would have been enough to render him unable to fight.

"Oh, you've been blocked? It's a pity your talents cannot be used by the empire. Since you dare to oppose the empire and His Majesty, you must be eliminated!"

"Hmph, this corrupt empire, along with its blindly loyal general and the culprit minister, I have no intention of being loyal to it whatsoever. I'd rather it be destroyed more thoroughly!"

Upon hearing Will's words, Bud was instantly enraged, and the blue bricks on the ground were shattered by the waves.

Just as Bud was about to unleash a thunderbolt to deliver a fatal blow to Will, Black Eyes and Ran arrived in time to rescue him, one attacking from behind and the other launching a shot from the sky.

Sensing the danger behind him, Bud had no choice but to temporarily abandon his plan to kill Will. Instead, he crossed his arms and unleashed lightning to block Black Eye's sneak attack and Lan's feathers.

"You were all brave and skilled warriors who once served the Empire. Why did you choose to betray us, just like Esdeath!"

"It's because he's been in the Empire for too long and witnessed too much darkness that he made this choice!"

Lan calmly observed that after taking his revenge, he seemed to have undergone a spiritual transformation. He would never have felt this way with the hunters. Perhaps this was the charm of that lord.

Bud looked at Lan, who was flying in mid-air, and decided to start with him. He put his arms together and fired a laser beam from the cannon on his gauntlet.

Lan quickly flapped its wings and flew upwards, dodging the several cluster shots fired at it.

"Hmph, don't think you're the only one who can fly. Traitors should stay where traitors are!"

Bud controlled the surrounding electromagnetic field, causing himself to slowly fly into the air. Although he was not as agile as Lan, he at least closed the distance between the two.

Will's noble chariot, which also had the ability to fly, rushed over to provide cover for Lan.

Lan himself is not a combat-oriented person. He mainly relies on Will and Black Eyes to distract Bud's actions so that he can take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack on Bud.

Black Eyes looked unhappy and pouted. It seemed like she was the only one among them who couldn't fly.

Just as Kuroko was sulking to the side, Will's anxious voice suddenly came from the sky.

"Kuro-touch, watch out!"

It turned out that Bud had just realized that Kurohime's attention was not on him, so he immediately turned around and, taking advantage of her momentary lapse in concentration, launched a lightning ball at Kurohime.

By the time Kuroko realized what was happening, it was too late. Her body instinctively covered her head with her hands.

Just as the lightning ball was about to touch Kurohime's body, a figure appeared in time, blocking Kurohime's path and deflecting the incoming lightning ball, which then struck the ground.

The newcomer was Mo Li. He lightly stroked Hei Tong's head, then turned to Bud and said mockingly:

"Hey, General Bud, it's been so long, how come you're still such a useless piece of trash!"

"You utterly wicked person, the root of all evil, Mo Li, you have finally appeared!"

Of course, Bud knew Mo Li. Although he didn't recognize him on the arena last time, the two had fought several times on other battlefields, and Mo Li had won every time.

For this reason, Bud has always regarded Moli as the root of all evil and one of the reasons for the destruction of the empire.

"This is not a sacred place for an evil person like you. Accept my punishment, Mo Li!"

Upon seeing Mo Li, Bud's anger intensified, and in his rage, he unleashed the Prince's Battle Technique without hesitation.

Countless lightning bolts were recklessly thrown downwards, exploding on the ground and kicking up huge clouds of dust.

Lan and Will, still shaken, looked down with concern. They wondered if such a powerful attack would cause any harm, but they could see nothing but smoke and dust.

According to the "smoke-free" principle, this type of attack may seem extremely lethal, but it doesn't have any significant effect.

Bud also looked down with a tense expression; the attack just now had consumed most of his strength.

As the smoke and dust gradually dissipated, Mo Li and Hei Tong slowly appeared in front of Bud. Not only were they not injured, but their clothes were also spotless.

"What? That's impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible, sir. Your aim seems a bit off!"

Mo Li shielded Hei Tong behind her, stretched her limbs, and rushed forward to fight Bud.

As their fists clashed, Bud grew increasingly alarmed. He clearly sensed that Mo Li's strength was not on the same level as his own. Could it be that Mo Li had been holding back all along?

"What a joke! I will never accept this kind of charity battle (paid for)! Mo Li, I demand that you fight me with all your might! I swear by the title of Grand General bestowed upon me by the Lord, I will slay you!"

"Oh? You're the first person who dares to make me unleash my full power. Are you ready to witness hell?"

"Hmph, even if it's hell, I'll drag you down with me!"

Bud's veins bulged, lightning was gradually gathering on his gauntlets, and his eyes were filled with the will to die.

Mo Li waved her hand, signaling Hei Tong to step aside so that she wouldn't be caught in the crossfire if a fight broke out.

Seeing this, Will and Lan also retreated quickly. It was better for people of their strength to stay away from the clash between two top experts as soon as possible.

Mo Li smiled slightly, and his magic surged. The sky darkened instantly, and dark clouds churned in the air, as if the entire sky was about to collapse.

The powerful pressure from the Demon King forced Bud to take several steps back, his eyes filled with disbelief.

The heavens and earth changed color; there was such a powerful being in the world.

However, for the sake of the Empire, for His Majesty, I absolutely cannot lose this battle!

Chapter 290 Since ancient times, the left side of a match has always lost; the death of Bud.

The two stood facing each other. Even though he felt immense pressure from Mo Li, Bud wouldn't allow himself to back down. Anyone who dared to provoke the Empire would face his judgment.

Mo Li slowly rose into the air, raising the Blade of Rebellion in his hand, its tip pointing directly at Bude.

"I originally intended to leave you to Esdeath as her opponent, but it seems I'll have to deal with you for her first!"

"Hmph, whether it's you or Esdeath, you are both subjects of my trial. After I eliminate you, I will go find Esdeath myself and wipe her out along with the damned Revolutionary Army!"

"Trial? Hahahaha, no one can judge me, Bud, you think you're worthy?!"

"Then I'll finish you off now. Savor the power of my Imperial Arm [Admirer]'s ultimate technique!"

Enraged, Bud was enveloped in exaggerated arcs of electricity, and under the influence of the electromagnetic field, he too was propelled into the air.

Countless dark clouds gathered together, and lightning flashed within them.

Bud preemptively struck, his gauntlets activated to full power, aimed at Mo Li, and roared:

"Thunder Emperor summons——!"

Countless bolts of lightning transformed into sharp swords and shot towards Mo Li, as if the sky and the ground had been stretched into a straight line by the lightning at that moment.

Mo Li, who was in the center of the lightning, remained completely calm. If you looked closely, you could see that the lightning passed right through his body and struck the ground, without affecting Mo Li at all.

When Budo saw that the lightning had no effect on him, he was also surprised, as his Imperial Arms had never failed him before.

Although I know it might not cause much harm to Mo Li, it shouldn't be as easy as 820.

"Second Bloodlust, Word of Power: Monarch's Flame!"

Burning flames erupted from Mo Li's body, carrying extremely high temperatures, and rushed towards Bud.

Before the Junyan got close, Bud had already sensed its temperature and immediately fired cluster cannons in an attempt to stop the Junyan's advance, but to no avail.

A fierce glint flashed in Bud's eyes as he formed an electric grid around himself, which blocked Jun Yan's advance, but this also consumed a lot of his energy.

"Hey, don't be such a spoilsport, Bud! I haven't even used my full strength yet, and you've already collapsed!"

"Tch, you little thieves, do you think I'm afraid of you? Thunder God Impact—!"

Using the power of lightning from nature, Budo combined it with his Imperial Arms to create a massive ball of lightning, on which he placed all his hopes.

The blue energy ball instantly illuminated the dark sky and continued to grow larger.

Mo Li raised his head with interest, looking at the ball of lightning in Bud's hand, then shook his head.

It wasn't that he didn't acknowledge its power, it's just that Bud's position was somewhat unfavorable.

As the saying goes, the left side always loses in a match, and Bud's fate seems to be sealed. Let me see this blindly loyal man off on his final journey.

The blade of Rebellion began to glow, gradually transforming into the shape of Excalibur (ajfc).
