"Damn little insect! Do you know that you are facing a Demon Lord! One of the most powerful demons!"
"Little insect! I order you to stop! I order you to stop!"
"Insect! No, wait! Human! Let's negotiate, let's negotiate! I think violence is wrong! We should advocate for peace!"
"Human! I am returning to the Demon Realm! Please stop the attack!"
"My lord! Stop hitting me! Stop hitting me!"
Goliath's wailing spread throughout the entire block. He howled and shrieked miserably, lying on the ground like a dog.
However, DOOM's attack did not stop.
That gentleman holding the heavy weapon blew on the muzzle of his firearms and aimed at the battered demon on the ground.
"You are much more pathetic than the demons where I come from; at least they wouldn't kneel and beg for mercy." DOOM said with disdain. He hadn't even taken out his own executioner weapon—though, of course, his weapons wouldn't be able to exert their full power here anyway.
"What? Where you come from?"
Ignoring Goliath's confusion on the ground, DOOM pulled out a massive light cannon and aimed it at the demon's head.
"Wait! Wait! You can't do this! You..."
Goliath panicked. He no longer had the power to escape again. If he were blown to pieces this time, he wouldn't even be able to return to the Demon Realm to be reborn!
It was a pity that Goliath no longer even had the strength to struggle.
DOOM over there whistled a little tune and then pulled his trigger.
That massive beam of light sprayed down directly. The radiance was like a torrent, rushing downward, like a flood, flowing endlessly.
The giant demon's head was instantly pierced through, and his flesh began to turn to ash, subsequently disappearing from sight.
The monster's body gradually dissipated and then drifted away into nothingness.
DOOM also landed from the air. He pursed his lips slightly, looking at the vanished demon corpse, feeling it was a bit of a pity.
He had discovered this problem earlier when dissecting small demons: the demons here would turn to ash and disappear within a very short time after death. DOOM could use his special Dimensional Secret Energy to temporarily preserve the corpses of smaller demons, but for such a large-scale demon, even DOOM could not preserve it completely.
Moreover, even if he had preserved this guy's heart, DOOM felt that he would probably need to analyze it for a period of time to finish analyzing such a large piece of heart.
After finishing off this demon, DOOM looked back—he saw Victoria sitting on the stone steps at a glance. That lady seemed to have turned completely white at this moment, as if she had turned to ash.
And Zuo Si over there was comforting Victoria with some awkwardness.
"Um, Victoria?"
"I'm fine... I'm fine... I just lost a greatsword, that's all. I'm fine... I'm fine..."
"Miss Victoria? How about we head back first..."
"It's fine, it's fine..."
DOOM could visibly see Victoria's body slump.
This made the tough guy feel a bit embarrassed. He had seen the whole thing happen just now; when that demon was waving its wrists around, it had slapped the greatsword directly, and then the greatsword had flown away. He didn't know how far the greatsword had flown in an instant, and although he knew the direction, it would probably take a while to find.
Although this matter should, probably, maybe have nothing to do with DOOM, the tough guy still felt a little uncomfortable.
So he sighed, rummaged through his inventory, and then walked up to Victoria and threw a heavy Adamantine Gatling gun to her.
"Use this for now."
Victoria was stunned for a moment, then regained her color at a speed visible to the naked eye.
She was like a child who had received a new toy, and firefly-like lights seemed to flicker in her eyes.
"Wow! This heavy crossbow is so cool!"
"Heavy crossbow? This isn't... never mind, whatever you say it is, it is." DOOM wasn't sure how to explain this weapon to Victoria; after all, their worldviews were different.
Victoria tried it out casually, quickly mastered the weapon, and then put the thing on her back.
"Let's go!"
She said happily.
Zuo Si wiped his sweat slightly—this lady's mood swings were truly faster than flipping a book.
But come to think of it...
Zuo Si glanced slightly in the direction where the greatsword had flown.
There wouldn't be any problem with that sword, would there?
There shouldn't be...
Anyway, it was all demons here, so even if it flew out, it wouldn't hit any passersby.
Yeah, it would definitely be fine.
But he didn't know if it was Zuo Si's imagination, he always felt that the greatsword might cause trouble, so he coughed and looked at the two people in front of him.
"How about we... find the sword first?"
"Hey! V, we're almost there! Don't worry!"
"I hope so."
The man with black, medium-length hair was holding onto the legs of a bird. His voice sounded slightly listless, and he looked quite sickly overall.
His name was V.
The human part of Vergil.
He coughed twice, and an unattractive flush appeared on his face. His body seemed exceptionally weak, as if he couldn't even stand steadily.
The reason V was like this was mainly because Vergil's Devil Face had become too strong now.
Vergil possessed a weapon called the "Yamato". That sword could split dimensions and even split the Concept itself. It was precisely because of the existence of that sword that Vergil was able to separate his Devil Face and human side, and subsequently pursue even greater power.
However, V did not agree with the actions of his Devil Face.
Meaningless slaughter was not an excuse for becoming stronger, and furthermore, such large-scale slaughter was definitely not the path to true strength!
V had his own power; he could summon his familiars: a bird that could carry him while flying but was a total chatterbox, and a panther that could hide in shadows.
Of course, there was also a giant golem.
He wanted to stop his Devil Face from continuing to do such things, but relying on this alone would likely not be enough. The opponent's strength was simply too formidable; he could only rely on the demon hunters in the human world.
He sighed slightly. He had already made his calculations; when those demon hunters...
V was becoming more and more exhausted. He had no idea if he could hold on.
He hoped he could still manage.
But at this very moment, V suddenly saw a black shadow flying over from not far away.
"Hey! V! What is that!?"
A noisy voice came from above V's head. He felt it was a bit annoying.
"I don't know..." V narrowed his eyes, staring into the distance.
Gradually, that black shadow grew larger and larger.
"V... I have a bad feeling about this—ah! Fuck! Who threw that sword!"
At this moment, V finally saw clearly what exactly was flying toward them.
It was a greatsword as tall as a person!
