188.Chapter 188 – The Styx River Changes Course

Chapter 188 – Styx River Diversion
“What exactly does he want to do?”

Dagoth suddenly surged with an extremely absurd and unbelievably disturbing thought:

That red dragon, did he want to dig up the River Styx?
This may sound like a fantasy, but it seemed to be the only way for the other party to retaliate against his will and survive the chaos.

However, this seems to be an almost impossible solution, with the other party’s previous brutal style of almost using his own strength to cut through the battlefield of the bloody battle, it seems that there is really a slight possibility of success!
It was nothing more than chiseling through the battlefield once more.

Nothing? Oh, is that possible?

But once the other side succeeds, God knows what kind of uncontrollable and unpredictable terrible consequences will be caused to the battlefield.

This was something that every Devil who was an Order-Keeping Devil normally wouldn’t even think about, even if even Demons would actively avoid it.

Because the water of the River Styx wasn’t just a physical threat to mortal creatures, it also carried a strong negative energy and destructive power.

At the same time, the water of the River Styx was even more fatal to the inhabitants of the lower realms such as demons and devils, not only was it able to quickly erode their bodies, but it was also able to corrupt their souls and wills, and even erase their memories and personalities.

This is extremely frightening and unacceptable to any creature of the lower planes.

Their souls and personalities were the very essence of what they depended on for survival.

If these were forgotten, they would completely lose the possibility of recovery.

How in the world did that dragon dare!

It was also difficult to understand how the other party did it.

It was important to realize that on the complex battlefield of a thousand bloody battles, any mistake in decision or even reaction had the possibility of being killed and tipped over on the spot.

Even a battlefield experienced Demon General like him couldn’t do everything as he wished and be invincible.

The slightest carelessness could lead to the possibility of being replaced by a selected devil on the spot.

But that red dragon, not only did he know a ridiculous amount of magic, but every time he was about to roll over, he was always able to brush past the fatal blow with a fraction of a second as if he had known it beforehand.

He even saw the dragon’s soul train drill right through the crotch of a fiery Balrog, thus avoiding the poisonous clouds spewed out by the swarms of Flo demons behind him.

There was even a large group of unlucky Flo Demon head on the crotch and thighs of the Barrow Inferno, instantly transformed into an Orleans Roasted Chicken that fell from the sky, and was picked up by the demons behind them and feasted on it.

Several times in a row this could barely be explained by luck, but every time this happened, and even relying on this ability to cut through the battlefield twice in a row, it was a bit unbelievable.

That could only mean one thing.
This red dragon really did have an ability similar to [Precognition]!

It was also able to use it continuously!
This was by no means something that an ordinary character or even a five-colored dragon could do.

Could it be? The other party was really a family member of the Queen of the Five-Colored Dragons?

But without receiving a transfer order from the Lord of the Nine Prisons, how could this group of unprofitable five-colored dragons suddenly intervene?
“Ka Ma Thukas! Come back here!”

Mard, the damned Disorderly Ones! A bunch of assholes with muscles in their heads!
But David, who was in the middle of a noisy battlefield and had already moved away without hesitation, couldn’t hear what the other side was saying, but even if he did, he would have disdained it.

Sometimes reality is so absurd, he just wanted to escape through the devil’s defense line the other side does not allow, but when he saw that he wanted to lift the entire bloody battlefield here directly, the other side agreed to him to rush into the defense line to take refuge.

However, just as Dagoth had spread his wings of the Deep Purgatory Demon to try to catch up with the Soul Train that was rampaging all over the battlefield, his commander-in-chief, who was a Demon General, was immediately surrounded by a group of high-ranking demons and even a Demon Lord.

Compared to the several immature dragons, their desire to kill a Demon General on the spot was obviously even stronger.

That would certainly be a feat that would attract the attention and pleasure of Mother Abyss.

Or even be promoted to a new Demon Lord by the Abyssal Will in one fell swoop.

Dagoth, who was intercepted in the air, could only watch the red dragon driving the train of souls that looked like a prison iron monster, gradually disappearing under the interception of layers of demonic figures with the exhaust of black soul residue.

At this moment, Dagoth even began to hope that this group of former enemies could stop that red dragon madman.

Half a month later, contrary to the wishes of the demon general Dagoth, David, who had once again chiseled a hole through the battlefield of this bloody war, still did not stop running.

Only compared to half a month ago, this train of souls had almost fallen apart.

At the same time, Davy’s neck had a string of heads.

All of them were Davy’s dependents.

The big, grinning red dragon Lizlette was the first to die in battle.

A demon general’s great axe chopped, David avoided, behind Lizlette this teenage red dragon is split into two halves on the spot.

Just when the upper half of the body was about to be fished away by the demon as an object of occupation, it was pulled back in time by David’s tail.

Red dragon’s strong vitality so that Lizzie Lit did not die on the spot, but at that time is not far from the end of the day, this female red dragon looked deeply at the blood bath in the battle of David, want to open to express the heart for the year to take in their own gratitude, and buried in the heart of a long time in the wisp of adoration, but was David’s almost hoarse voice forcefully interrupted said:
“Call out the name of Pavla, the God of Power! Believe in Him with all your heart!”

“And I, myself, will send you on your way!” Lizlette’s gaze, which had already been somewhat determined and bleak, suddenly froze.

Yes, Davyutos’ mother had become a god, so as long as her own soul wasn’t captured and imprisoned by a demon, wouldn’t she theoretically be able to go directly to that Red Calamity Lord through the Pillar of Faith!

Although this red dragon’s brain wasn’t too bright, it was always able to carry out Davy’s will unswervingly at the first opportunity.

“Lord Pavla save me.”

Click.

Then the next second, the head of the red dragon Lizlette was wrenched off by Davy’s own claws in front of the horrified and inexplicable gazes of all the dragons, and then kicked her body straight towards a lunging demon.

“Will this this work?”

The black dragoness Viola’s entire dragon was dumbfounded, it was obvious that nothing was moving!

Then she spewed out a cascade of blood from her mouth.

Her luck was too bad.

The defensive magic that David had put on her had only just failed when a Demon Lord had crushed her heart through the air from several miles away.

“Viola!!!” Alphonse, one of the few of the five-colored dragons who valued kinship, was enraged.

This time, she didn’t have time to question it, she was more afraid of having her soul plundered as a plaything by a demon lord than a ‘death’.

Unable to speak, she instantly nodded stoically at Davy, and her head was once again kagged by Davy as if he were twisting a leek.

Not long after, her brother Alphonse also hung up.

The two siblings died too fast interval, so that David are some doubt Alvons this black dragon brother is not intentional, want to come out of an otherworldly version of the black dragon bone section.

Then there was the barbarian Loxinde and Drow Hiatus who died one after the other.

Being in the middle of the most treacherous bloodbath in the multiverse, trying not to die was almost tantamount to a fairy tale.

Especially in this kind of situation where they had been fighting for nearly a month and were all at the end of their strengths, a carelessness was the end of their lives.

That is, David relied on the [Greed] eye to be able to foresee the situation in advance.

But sometimes, even if you clearly see, can not be completely avoided, more often than not can only choose the lesser of two evils.

For example, he ended the life of his dependents, and then left his head behind, hoping to be able to realize the resurrection of his dependents through the resurrection technique and the souls stored in the [Hall of Spirits] borrowed by his mother Pavla.

But his mom is also the first time to become a god, but also in the God of War battlefield, the first time when the God of the second generation of David also do not know this in the end can be successful, so do not dare to be careless David directly despite the dragon father opposed to the dragon sister Tania to directly into the soul melting pot.

Only left a head and two paws, like a cat head like stay in David crotch crazy magic output.

This is a treatment that only Tania can enjoy, after being changed by David [Jealousy], Tania is able to immunize herself from the scorching heat of the furnace.

As for Papa Dragon?

Two dragons couldn’t be stuffed in a small furnace.

We’ll have to send him to his mother, Pavela.

Anyway, this silver dragon is already a believer of mom’s, so the bond between them shouldn’t fail.

At the same time, they had also discovered that as long as they succeeded in killing the demon, there would be a steady stream of magic and another kind of unspeakable power pouring into their bodies, allowing their long-dried out and exhausted bodies to always be able to squeeze out a tiny bit of strength and magic in that kind of limit.

It was also through this power that could always nourish their bodies like sweet rain when they were in desperate situations that they had persevered until now.

However, on this day, except for David, who was the most ruthless and fastest to kill along the way, and who could still mow down the weakest part of the field like a perpetual motion machine, the only ones left around were the bruised and battered father of the dragons, Atilicia, the green dragon Shadera, who was always able to turn dangers to her advantage if helped by the heavens, the best-protected sister of the dragons, Tania, the dragon descendant of the dragon, Yolanda, who was the one who had the most cards and could also be the most powerful, as well as the good luck of the White Dragon, Mephile.

As a matter of fact, it is unbelievable that this white dragon has survived until now, including David.

This white dragon’s luck is surprisingly good, interspersed in the bloody battle for nearly a month, even if it has already left the center of the most dangerous battlefield, compared to the bruised and battered many times on the edge of death of the many dragons, this white dragon was actually only broken a tail you dare to believe?

That is, was bombarded with I don’t know what vicious spells, I don’t know if the yet to be well developed balls to keep, all the way to scream to not yet to the voice change period of the voice are hoarse:
“Boss, just kill me, I can’t stand it anymore.” David is deaf, by this time, even he can not help but start to believe in metaphysics, with this good luck white dragon may really be able to some good luck.

No one knew when they would be able to successfully break out of this battlefield that seemed to have no edge in sight.

Nor did they know exactly where David was taking them.

There was even an inexplicable sadness.

They were responding to the call of the five-colored dragon post-dimensional war and wanted to take advantage of it to reap some benefits in advance, but they didn’t expect that the Evil Scale Fortress hadn’t even arrived yet, and as a result, they were first caught up in the most tragic and terrifying battlefield of bloodshed.

Is he going to die here?
I don’t know whether the soul is numb in this successive more than twenty days of killing day and night.

They seemed to see the vastness of the river Styx again.
Is this the God of Death beckoning to them?

But very quickly Papa Long was the first to react, they were now in Bato Hell!
With his excellent eyesight, he was even able to see the Ba Ba devils who were sailing their shell boats, which seemed to be full of holes, on the filthy waters of the Styx River, numbly salvaging the shells of their souls with their poles.

As they had seen on their way here, the River Styx was like a sea without boundaries, but with some bends, it hung almost above the earth’s level.

Like some large rivers with high sand content in the material world, it also diverts, and it happens extremely frequently.

In order to salvage the shells of souls more steadily, countless low-level devils, such as bad devils, would not stop building dams on both sides of the River Styx every day, driven by demons.

The tacit agreement was that generally there would not be any demons to do the thing of attacking the dam of the River Styx, because once the River Styx was diverted, it would greatly slow down their attack on Batou Hell, and once they touched the water of the River Styx, it was very likely that they would not be able to go back to the abyss with their remnants of their souls or even if they did go back, they would also be completely ‘cleansed’.

The nature of the creatures of the lower realms made them instinctively stay away from this ‘mother river’.

Pfft!
After nearly a month, they were actually stunned for the first time to realize that there were suddenly no more enemies in front of them, and the only thing left was an oceanic river of the underworld.

At this point, the dragon father, Attilicia, even if her brain was broken, she could still guess what David was planning to do.

The fear of facing the unknown made the scales of this silver dragon, who was currently wearing a red dragon skin, stand up:
“Son of a bitch. Are you sure you want to do this?”

“Or you can think of another way.” David gritted his teeth.

Along the way, he had already cursed that demon general named Dagoth a million times.

‘Mard, if you don’t give me a way out, you don’t want to die either!’

[Rage

Attilicia instantly didn’t dare to say anything.

At this time, the dragons also reacted, and Father Dragon even instinctively looked back.

Good guy. Just the Flo Demons that had chased them all the way were almost converging into a low dark cloud.

“Prepare for takeoff!” Dave ordered.

“Fly?!” Murphylle’s entire dragon was shocked, the fire streamers behind him were raining down, wouldn’t flying at this time turn it into a barbecue?

He was a white dragon that was also ‘out of order’ wow!
But not waiting for him to hesitate, the soul train was still half a mile away from the Styx River embankment.

“Jump off the train! Fly as close to the ground as possible!”

David instantly yanked Tania in the melting pot flying with his dragon’s tail as if he were fishing.

His chaotic red dragon had just lifted up into the air when the sky’s fiery meteors slammed one after the other, but Davy threw himself up into the sky and opened his huge mouth:

[Power – Eclipse]

A dozen or so fire meteors in a row were swallowed straight down by David.

Then a dragon’s breath that was extremely compressed and surging, towards the soul train that was about to hit the embankment of the River Styx spit out, and then let out a smoky belch.

Boom, a low rumble rang out.

The edge of the Blood Battle Battlefield fell silent for an instant.

The soul train that had long been close to being scrapped was blown apart under the dragon’s breath, along with the exploding soul furnace, and even more so, a deep crater was blown out underneath the Styx River embankment.

However, compared to the magnificent River Styx embankment, it was just like a nest that had been infested by ants.

Just as David, whose face was as heavy as water, thought he had failed.

Ka-ching.

Suddenly a crack began to appear in the berm.

At first, it was just a small crack, but very quickly, the water surface of the River Styx began to fluctuate slightly, slowly becoming choppy like it was alive.

Boom. It was as if heaven and earth had collapsed at this moment, a huge column of water shot up into the sky, and the black water flowed like a furious beast, breaking through the boundaries of the riverbank, and pouring down towards the demon army that had instinctively started to pause and retreat as it grew bigger and bigger and started to collapse at the mouth.

The pursuing demons behind them were caught completely off guard, those demons that were flooded by the water of the River Styx, their bodies were corroded and decomposed in the blink of an eye, and even their souls began to present themselves in the water of the River Styx, wailing and struggling like the drowned dead.

Huge waves of water began to sweep across the battlefield like a tsunami, and countless demons were devoured by the water of the River Styx as they screamed.

In the center of the battlefield, 30,000 miles away, Dagoth was still commanding his army to fight with the demons, roaring, screaming and the sound of weapons clashing resounded through the sky.

He was suddenly a little thankful for the red dragon that suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

That guy actually attracted away at least one-tenth of the demon troops in the center of the battlefield with his own strength, actually making the battle line that was originally pushing towards the hinterland of Avernus continue to have a subtle balance.

Demons were like that, they would always follow their own heart and form of desire.

It was thanks to this that the demons were able to achieve a far higher battle damage ratio than the devils with their excellent discipline and order.

However, for some reason, Dagoth always had an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness, a feeling that had also appeared nearly half a month ago.

Suddenly, he was alerted by an alarm from the edge of the battlefield:

“Dagoth, Styx! The River Styx has diverted its course! Hmm. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr. Ah! Who am I! Who the hell are you?”

The moment he heard the message, it was as if a ticking buzz started in Dagoth’s head.

Then a blatant order was given:

“Retreat! Abandon the second line of defense! All troops retreat!”

“The whole army retreats! Retreat to the high ground!”

The order didn’t last long before the earth vaguely began to rumble.

The demonic army that was immersed in the great victory was about to take advantage of the victory when it came to a startling halt, and all the devils and demons looked towards the east at the same time.

They saw a rapidly rushing wall, at least dozens of meters high, and even more so, it was coming at a tsunami-like speed.

The demons on the battlefield and those who failed to evacuate the heights in time were drowned by this sudden disaster, their bodies rapidly decaying and decomposing in the water of the River Styx, their screams drowning in the raging current, becoming part of the River Styx.

The River Styx was diverted and the black current flooded half of the battlefield, swallowing everything from this bloody battle in a dark abyss.

The battlefield that was originally filled with rage and killing was also so small and fragile in front of the indifference of the River Styx.

The River Styx continued its flow, bringing all this horror and despair to its next destination.

Using his wings to fly in mid-air Dagoth looked at everything in front of him with indifference.

They had won the bloody battle of this encounter in the hinterlands of Avernus.
The diverted River Styx had flooded and collapsed along with the mouth of the tunnel from which the demons had poured out.

But again, the losses, too great.

If an unexpected battle like this happened again anytime soon, it would be all over!

At least he’s done his time in this position.

“Gotta get that damn red dragon cub.

“Pay up!”

So muttered this ‘Arrogant and Contemptuous’ Dagoth.

He couldn’t be arrogant anymore.

Like a lost dog, he sped towards the bronze fortress.
