87. Edward the Confessor

Loud bangs rang out one after another.

The main building of the Duke of the Void's Mansion, an ancient building that was also quite famous in the history of the royal capital of Lane, slowly collapsed amid the continuous roar, stirring up a cloud of earthy yellow dust that was almost like a sandstorm.

"Poof—"

A faint voice sounded, and in the huge dust raised in the sky, a figure broke through the air.

This person is none other than Sean.

At this time, Sean had a bit of panic on his face that was difficult to hide, and the clothes that were worn out because he was knocked away and buried alive under the rubble looked even more dilapidated, and there were many new scars on his body - in fact, after Sean broke through the boundary of the silver realm before, all the injuries had healed automatically, so at this moment, these wounds were obviously caused when he rushed out of the dust just now.

"Poof-poof-"

Just as Sean withdrew from the dust rolling up in the sky, two other faint sounds that also broke through the dust and fog sounded one after the other.

Like Sean, the two figures, Rena and Shephaneo, also retreated sharply backwards.

And in mid-air, there was another figure that slid over a distance of more than ten meters in a leaping posture, and this person was naturally Marton who was standing on the roof before. Because Edward rushed into the house to fight, Marton could only wait on the roof in the series of confrontations just now, but he himself did not expect to encounter the current situation, so when the main building collapsed, he only had time to leap out in embarrassment.

But unfortunately, Marton doesn't have the amazing strength of Shephaño. Therefore, there is no way for him to land lightly in mid-air with the help of the power of gravel. However, perhaps because of the elves' unique balancing ability, Marton did not fall from a height of ten meters, and the moment he landed, he continued to roll one after another to remove all the possible force impact of gravity - even if it caused a few more abrasions. But at least it's better than being injured.

The earth is still shaking.

The shaking and destruction caused by the collapse of a four- or five-story building, with several annexes to the main complex, was by no means as simple as the dust of a sandstorm. The cracks caused by the shaking of the earth are constantly spreading, and as these cracks spread, the ground also reveals hideous cracks, like a monster that is devouring something with its mouth open. There's no guarantee of what will happen if you're caught up in these cracks; The stirred dust and fog were also continuously diffused in the shock air flow formed by the continuous collapse of the main building, affecting everyone's visual visibility. This forms an ingenious combination with the cracks in the earth, which is extremely dangerous.

No one dared to stay in such a dangerous range, and could only keep retreating.

When the earth finally stopped shaking, Sean and the others finally dared to stop retreating. It's just that the field of view is blocked by dust and fog. Therefore, they can only choose to wait and watch for the time being. In this case, no one dared to move at will, because the visibility was even five meters, and for all the gold powerhouses present at this time, it would never let people get close to the range of five meters.

I'm afraid that an attack will be launched from a distance of ten meters.

Therefore, rash walking at this time will bring trouble to your own side.

I don't know how long it took, maybe a few seconds, maybe a few minutes. At times like these, the flow of time is undoubtedly slowed down by mental tension. However, it can be confirmed. The dust mist that was rising from the sky was finally starting to thin out - although it had spread to the other noble mansions around the Duke of the Void's mansion, it was indeed beginning to thin out, so that the visibility of the vision would be improved and clear.

However, when Sean was finally able to see his surroundings clearly, his inner thoughts were that it was better to not see anything.

In the middle of the main building, there is a majestic figure!

This figure is undoubtedly Edward.

Edward, who has been thoroughly demonized!

The demonized Edward, the visual height has exceeded seven meters - according to the demon's theoretical standards, the larger the size, the stronger the demon's strength, although Sean doesn't know how to calculate the demon's size and strength proportional data, but judging from the momentum exuded by Edward at this time, it is obvious that this guy's current strength is definitely the strength of the real step into the Sanctuary.

Although it is only a lower-level Sacred Domain, in the Abyss Plane, a demon with the strength of the Sacred Domain-level is also a Commander-level existence, and the only difference is between a small Commander and a Great Commander. However, whether it is a small boss or a big boss, the form of the game is the boss level - this kind of boss wants to rely on individual strength, it is completely impossible for this kind of boss to rely on individual strength, after all, "Miracle" is a game that advocates teamwork from the beginning, not individual heroism.

The demonic Edward, who is over seven meters tall, has an eerie blue-gray skin - a very different color from the demonic skin normally recorded in literature. He has no wings on his back, which proves that Edward is not an agile flying demon, and looking at Edward's unusually strong physique now, it can also prove that he is not an intellectual and endurance demon, but a strength demon, and the destructive power of this kind of demon has always broken through the sky.

However, as a demonized form, there is still a big difference between Edward and Sean's impressions of those demons, at least to some extent, he still maintains a human-like form structure, which is very similar to the demonized Count Mario that Sean saw at the beginning. Moreover, Edward also has a single horn on his forehead, which seems to be contaminated with the blood of the horned demon, but his tail does not grow from his interthighs, and the surface skin of his body has a metallic luster.

He just stood here, and the powerful demon lord coercion made everyone around him feel breathless.

But in Sean's vision, Edward's destruction wasn't just that. There was also a crimson circle of light shining at his feet, which made Sean feel a little dry and manic, and there were even sounds of fighting in several aristocratic mansions around him.

No doubt. This is supposed to be Edward's unique madness aura, and after he has completely demonized, the power effect and area of effect of this aura have obviously been greatly increased.

At this moment, Sean seemed to have some enlightenment.

"A few days ago, the tragic battle in the Ryan Arena was caused by you?" Sean looked at Edward, who could be regarded as a behemoth in front of him, and asked in a deep voice.

If only the conflict is caused by old feuds between countries. Usually the first goal is to maim and not to create a blood hatred, after all, the former way can increase the burden of the enemy country, but the hatred between each other is also limited to national conflicts. There will be no personal family involved, and the latter will not bring any benefit at all, except for creating new enemies for their own family, and may even be scolded.

So all this. There are simply no tendencies that are in line with political interests.

Sean hadn't thought about it before. But now after seeing Edward, Sean can't help but guess in this direction: only under the influence of Edward's crazy aura, those who already have contradictions and have the purpose of conflict will turn the martial arts sacrifice into a Shura field.

"You're very smart indeed." Edward did not deny it, "Since you can guess that I did it, then you should know my motive for doing it." ”

Hearing Edward's voice, Sean was stunned for a moment.

At this time, the first thing he thought of was not what Edward's motives were, but that Edward was still sane?!

Demon. It's creatures that worship chaos, for them. The meaning of its existence is destruction. Although demons are also intelligent creatures, it only refers to high-level demons, and low-level demons have no will of their own at all. According to this law, once all the infidels who worship demons are demonized, the vast majority of them are unable to maintain their sanity, and only extremely rare and powerful individuals can retain a trace of self-consciousness, but this self-consciousness is relatively different from their situation as human beings, and the most significant characteristics are manic and irritable, and extremely aggressive.

However, Edward's situation was completely different from all the cases of human demonization that Sean was aware of.

He also maintains his absolute self-sanity and consciousness!

"I'm surprised that I can still keep my sanity, right?" Edward seemed to see through Sean's doubts, and he continued to ask.

Like Edward in human form, although the demonic Edward at this time seems to have a streamlined body, it still feels extremely hideous - of course, this is relative to the aesthetic perspective of normal humans, if it is from the perspective of a demon, Edward at this time should be considered strong and powerful, and for demons strong and powerful is equivalent to handsome - but his voice is still very melodious: a mature and deep voice full of magnetism.

"As I said, I didn't become a demon, but borrowed the power of the devil to embark on a new path." After Edward turned into a demonic form, his tyrannical aura decreased a lot, but to Sean, he felt that the danger increased dramatically, "You just need to give me that codex, then I can solve the current demonic form, return to normal human form, and I can also create a new bloodline!" ”

"You're challenging the authority of the creator!" Without waiting for Sean to respond, Shephaño retorted angrily, "Even the gods don't dare to say that they can be involved in the realm of bloodlines, even a heretic like you wants to be delusional!" ”

"Ignorant fanatics." Edward snorted disdainfully, "The reason why the gods didn't involve the realm of bloodlines is not that they don't dare, it's that they are incompetent!" Do you think that becoming a god is the ultimate in this world? It's ridiculous, the real strong are the travelers who tear through the barriers and shuttle between the planes, and only the cowardly will choose to become gods and take root here, so it's not that they can't get involved in the realm of bloodlines, but their sheer incompetence! ”

"Shut up, heretic!" Shefanio shouted angrily, "The splendor of the gods, how can you be allowed to blaspheme!" ”

"Huh." Edward chuckled, but the voice was filled with a refined contempt.

A strong sense of disobedience instantly arose in Sean's heart, if it weren't for Edward's size being too large, Sean would even feel that the man in front of him was an elegant High Elf. Because of that contempt. It's exactly the same as the pride of those High Elves in Sean's memory, but it's really hard to understand that a demon makes such an expression.

But at this time, Sean was still in the mood to think about this. Shefanio was directly angry.

Although she was indeed born as a village girl, after such a long time, it is natural that Shefanio can no longer be the simple person she was at the beginning, but has learned a lot of secrets about the gods. Coupled with Ace Winter's constant attention and guidance, Shephaneo is naturally becoming more and more like a true fanatic, and she will never allow anyone to laugh at Ace Winter, after all, in terms of blood. This goddess is also her ancestor.

So the next moment, Shefanio rushed towards Edward with his sword raised.

Her speed was extremely fast, almost reaching the limit of her strength. Sean saw such a Shephaño. scolded in his heart, it was absolutely too late to stop her at this time, so Sean could only quickly rush towards Shefanio.

If it was a demon known to Sean, then he definitely knew how to deal with it. But demons like Edward clearly shouldn't exist. Sean really didn't know what to deal with for a while, let alone where the weakness was. So instinctively, he naturally didn't want Shefanio to risk himself, so he rushed towards Xuefanio at full speed to stop Xuefanio's attack.

"I can't help myself." Edward glanced at Shephaneo and Shaun contemptuously, and at this glance he could see that Sephaneo could definitely stop with Sean's speed, but he didn't mean to stop, because he was indeed a little tired of such endless conversations. After all, he has now completely exposed his whereabouts.

As Sean had predicted, Edward would use the power of his madness to influence the Martial Arts Festival. The main purpose of turning the martial arts festival into a complete Shura field is to attract all the powerhouses of the Sanctuary of the royal capital to the Ryan Arena, so that the defensive strength of the noble district will become weak - of course, this weakness is relative weakness, as long as there are no strong people in the Sanctuary Realm, it is impossible to find Edward's infiltration with those palace guards.

Originally, it was indeed a seamless plan.

It's just that Edward didn't expect that Sean, who he regarded as a soft persimmon, was so tenacious, so tenacious that he had to transform into a demon to be able to deal with it. Naturally, this completely disrupted his overall rhythm, but now, it was pointless for him to retreat now, because he had sensed that several powerful forces were rushing towards him.

After all, his existence was discovered by those Sacred Domain powerhouses in the royal capital.

At this time, Edward, who had lost his way out, showed an unprecedented calmness, he leaned sideways slightly, and his right fist fell towards Sean and Shephanian. The impact of the powerful force was extremely violent, but this time there was no whistling sound, but a faint crimson air flow visible to the naked eye, and the temperature rose sharply, and it looked like a small fall smash.

Before Sean could give the order, Gollum was already heading towards the huge fist.

Golden and blue flames erupted in the air, turning into golden-blue raindrops.

The powerful airflow impact exploded from the air like a nuclear explosion, and with such a powerful airflow vibration, the physique of a non-gold powerhouse could not withstand it at all. Even if it is a golden powerhouse, under the impact of such an air current, he will definitely be injured.

Sean, who was directly blown out by this air current.

But fortunately, he had already rushed in front of Shefanio, so he was blown out directly with Xuefanio.

As for Gollum, this time he couldn't stop Edward's attack at all, and was smashed down with such a heavy punch that even Gollum didn't know where he was smashed in an instant. However, his soul connection with Sean has not been broken, which at least proves that he is still alive.

One punch failed to kill Sean, and Edward was not angry, but he took a step forward, and with another roar from the earth, Edward slammed down with another punch. This time, without Gollum's blocking, naturally nothing could stop Edward's punch, so its speed could be called a thunderbolt.

Rena let out a low roar, as clear and high-pitched as a dragon's roar, but there was anger in her voice. Clearly audible.

It's just that with Reina's distance at this time, even if she sprints with all her strength, she will definitely not be able to save the two of them before Edward's right fist hits Sean. But even if the situation in front of you is so desperate. But Rena is not one to give up easily, so she still chooses to rush forward without hesitation, no matter how tragic the final result, Rena must definitely have a clear conscience - at least, in the knightly belief she has learned, a knight can never die after his master.

However, when Rena rushed to a distance of several meters from Sean and the others. But there was a figure that was faster than Rena's - this figure was the first to get ahead of Rena, and it reached in front of Sean and Shephaneo, facing Edward's huge fist almost a meter square.

"Bang!"

A dull thrust popped.

A frenzied current of air raged wildly around the figure, blowing up the figure's hair and clothes. It looked like the man was having some trouble blocking Edward's punch. However, this is only the surface, and if you look closely, you will see that the man's legs are like ancient trees rooted in the earth, and they have not moved in the slightest. Of course, if the strength and eyesight are excellent. Then it can even be found that this person has blocked Edward's punch. But the unsheathed sword he raised horizontally didn't even touch Edward's fist.

The competition between the two sides is actually a hedge in the field!

Someone with this kind of strength can only be a veritable Sacred Domain powerhouse!

When the frenzied air currents finally finished raging, the flying dust finally settled, and Sean was finally able to see the person's face, he was still shocked inside. Because the powerhouse of the Sanctuary who saved him and Shefanio at this time was none other than the patriarch of the Shabo family, who was now in a hostile relationship with Sean. Known as the Sword of Lane, Davin. Söder. Elizabeth!

Dai Wen. Söder. Sabo stared at Edward, then let out a burst of snort. In this moment, Dewin. Söder. Sabo's body doesn't seem to have changed in any way, but for some reason, it gives people the terrifying illusion of muscles all over his body. I saw him take a step forward suddenly, and his right hand holding the sword swept out to the right, and an incomparably strong air flow instantly swept out of Dawyn. Söder. Sabo's front erupted, directly shaking Edward back a step, so that Edward's right hand was naturally withdrawn.

"I don't remember that our kingdom of Lane invited demons to the ceremony." Dai Wen. Söder. Sabo looked up at Edward, and said in a teasing tone.

"The promotion ceremony of a second-rate kingdom is not worth my attention." Edward sneered without showing weakness, "With only a few of you, you can't keep me, be careful that you will move the capital from now on." ”

This is Edward's naked threat!

How terrifying the destructive power caused by the battle of the powerhouses of the Sacred Domain was, as long as anyone who had studied the general history of the continent a little bit would not know. Therefore, the battle between the strong people of the Holy Realm will generally be carried out in the wilderness of no man's land, unless the two countries are at war to the point that they are no longer dead, otherwise the strong people of the Holy Land will usually try to avoid fighting in densely populated areas - a large reason for this is because of the threat of a group of crazy people like the Peace Association.

But Edward, as a demon, didn't care about that.

And judging by the fact that he is only a demon, he has already destroyed Sean's Duke's mansion, and it is conceivable that he will not have any worries now. Of course, from the moment Edward created a gap that could get close to Sean, and let dozens of gold powerhouses die, this is also enough to judge that Edward almost no longer has any humanity at all, so his threat at this time is not only very effective, but also very headache.

This sentence alone made several Sacred Domain powerhouses who rushed here from the Ryan Arena at this time throw a mouse.

Of course, they don't think that they can't solve Edward with their strength.

However, as Edward said, if they start a battle here, regardless of the impact and damage to King Ryan, at least the Seventh Avenue will be completely destroyed. By then, it's unknown how many of the nobles who live on Seventh Avenue will survive - but whether or not a few will survive in the end is not a good thing for Ryan today.

Because the nobles who can live with a property on Seventh Avenue are either powerful or powerful. As long as a third of these people are lost, Lane's national power will be regressed by at least twenty years. Moreover, most of the powerful nobles in this group also hold some high-ranking positions in the kingdom. If something happens to them, it will take at least a few months or even a year or two to recover from the chaos that may be caused by the subsequent chaos in the center of power.

This is what really makes people afraid to do it easily!

"Hand over Sean, and I'll leave." Edward said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words came out, the faces of several Sacred Domain powerhouses who had already arrived at this time instantly became ugly.

The powerhouses of the Sanctuary present were not just Devin. Söder. Shabo, the sword of Lane, was also present at the same time as the sword-wielding sanctuary powerhouse who had clashed with Sean at the Evergreen Suspension Bridge. Darona, even Vivien, the Sanctuary powerhouse of the Boulder family, and the powerhouse of Ryan's town, Wengers. Wilwalch was already there.

Hear Edward's words. Before the others could express their position, Vivian was the first to be upset: "Heh, if you let us hand over someone, we have to hand over someone?" Isn't it too inattentive to us? Or rather. Are you strong enough to take down so many of us by yourself? ”

"You can't keep me." Edward shook his head, his expression still as steady as ever, "I really can't handle your team-up." But...... What if so? Almost as Edward's words fell. He suddenly raised his head to the sky and let out a wild roar, and the sound waves visible to the naked eye spread out in circles above his head, and these sound waves continued to expand in the air until they covered the entire area of the Seventh Avenue of the Kingdom, and many buildings began to crack under the interference of these sound waves, and then shattered one after another.

The sky began to gather with lightning and thunder. Red firelight shone through the pitch-black clouds.

The apocalyptic scene has come to an all-time scene.

Screams of terror began to resound throughout Seventh Avenue.

The Sacred Domain powerhouse with a heavy sword was obviously an impatient. Seeing that Edward, the demon, began to attack with such no eyes, he was the first to attack Edward uncontrollably: after rushing out of several meters, he jumped nearly ten meters in one step, his hands grasped the hilt of the heavy sword in his hand, raised it high above his head, and then slashed down towards Edward with a vertical slash.

But!

When he was still a little away from Edward, this Sanctuary powerhouse suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if time had stood still.

The next moment, there was a sound of cannonballs exploding in the air, and this Sacred Domain powerhouse crossed the sky like a meteor in everyone's field of vision, not knowing where to fall.

Seeing this scene, all the Sacred Domain powerhouses present became solemn. With their eyesight, it was naturally clear that at the moment when the heavy sword fell, a barrier appeared on Edward's body, and it was this barrier that blocked his heavy blow. Moreover, this barrier was obviously not an ordinary barrier, and the reason why that Sacred Domain powerhouse flew out upside down was the result of that barrier rebounding back after absorbing his attack.

"My name is Edward!" Edward clenched his fists and let out a roar, and blue flames burst out from under his feet in an instant, like a huge blue lotus blooming, "My trumpet is the penitent!" ”

In the sky, a rain of fire fell.

The earth, began to burn.

At this moment, Edward didn't just look hideous and terrifying, but had an invisible superordinate coercion. It was a coercion comparable to that of the Demon God, although it was not obvious in the current situation, but this was indeed a momentum unique to the Demon God.

Then Edward was heard speaking again.

"I, I have returned from the abyss, born on earth! I am the one who defends the rules, I am the one who breaks the rules, I am the enemy of the gods, the enemy of the abyss, the enemy of hell, I am the demon god who controls the ice and fire! …… I am Edward the Confessor! ”

At this moment, Sean looked at Edward dumbfounded.

He always thought that Edward was just pursuing power, so he did not hesitate to borrow the power of the devil, but at this moment, hearing Edward's oath, Sean finally knew that he looked down on Edward! It turns out that from the very beginning, the path he took was not the path of a pagan, but had a huge ambition - determined to become the seventh demon god in this world! (To be continued......)
