Chapter 163: Chapter 135: Tracking Prey_3
However, just as this Hell Priest was trying to rally his spirits passionately, suddenly, the metallic door behind him was abruptly blown open. The heavy door panel whistled as it was flung out violently, smashing mercilessly onto the Hell Priest’s body. The poor Hell Priest was like a fly being pummeled by a fly swatter, sending him sprawling towards the wall, turning him into a mess of gore.
Seeing this, the other two Hell Priests were taken aback, they hurriedly gripped their scepters and tried to escape, but at the same time, a dazzling Magic Circle burst into being, pinning them rooted to the spot.
“You no longer have any chances, dogs of Chaos.”
Duanmu Huai gripped his Thunder Warhammer, striding in from outside the door. Behind him, Ann was humming a ditty with her right hand raised, forming a miniature Array of Arrest within it.
At this moment, looking at this terrifying figure standing tall before them, the faces of the two Hell priests turned pale. They were, after all, once Dea Monks of the Yajinian people before they were cast into Hell and were only too familiar with the history of their kind. However, this mysterious figure standing before them, dressed in a horrifying Armor with a skull and blood-colored cross on it, seemed like a demon god walking out from an ancient myth, leaving them in disbelief.
One of the hell priests raises his trembling hand to point at Duanmu Huai, but before he can finish his sentence, the next moment sees him clutch his chest mid-sentence and drop lifeless to the ground.
Seeing this, Ann’s face changed, and she quickly rushed over to Greiya and Lorena.
“Look, Mr. Knight really scared somebody to death!”
Hearing the bitter laughter and whispered comments from the girls, Duanmu Huai’s face turned icy. He forced himself to act as if he hadn’t heard anything and marched straight toward the last remaining Hell Priest.
As Duanmu Huai approached, the last Hell Priest stared at him, a look of unfathomable shock in his eyes.
“Astarte… I thought that was just a legend… If you had descended earlier to this world, then perhaps…”
“You chose to give up.”
Duanmu Huai stood in front of the Hell Priest, staring at him.
“In the end, you are just another pawn of Chaos. No excuse can cover your weakness and stupidity. There’s no place for those with weak wills or indecisiveness. Only with firm actions and beliefs can humans survive. No sacrifice is too great, no betrayal too small.”
But before the Hell Priest could finish, Duanmu Huai raised his fist and landed a heavy punch on the Hell Priest.
The next moment, the Hell Priest’s head was smashed back into his body by Duanmu Huai. He fell to the ground without a sound, lifeless.
Seeing this, both Lorena and Ann shrank back.
However, at this moment… a voice rang out.
“Your resistance is futile.”
Accompanied by these words, a flash of brilliance shone from the teleporter in front of them. Immediately, a robotic figure nearly ten meters tall, looking like a giant woman composed of machines, emerged. She stared at Duanmu Huai, her golden eyes devoid of any emotions.
“This is a chance for humans to repent and serve us; you cannot defy my will – the will of Queen Mek.”
“We shall see about that.”
Staring at Queen Mek, Duanmu Huai gripped his War Hammer tightly. Queen Mek also raised her hands, glaring at him angrily.
“We have existed for thousands of years! Others must make sacrifices for our prosperity, only then can they be redeemed! And you, a mere mortal, dare to openly challenge our tradition? Why won’t you, like them, kneel before me and beg for the right to live? Do you think you, with these commoners by your side, can challenge god? Challenge the envoy of the Father of Heaven – the envoy of the creator of all things?”
“You dare to boast in front of me, alien scum?”
Duanmu Huai stared at Queen Mek, a brilliant red light erupted from his helmet.
“You dare to defile the purity of humans, lure them into the dark abyss of chaos. Your sin is unforgivable. Only purification and destruction can put an end to your crimes! Sympathy belongs to the servants of The Emperor, and aliens only deserve our contempt. Die!”
At Duanmu Huai’s words, Queen Mek roared in anger. Then she spread her arms, and accompanying her action, a pair of golden wings appeared behind her.
“You can never kill me, I will bestow upon you unimaginable pain and judgement!”
“That sounds like something I should be saying, alien scum!”
Duanmu Huai raised his Warhammer overhead, lightning flashing and dancing over it.
“For humanity, I shall teach you the true wrath of The Emperor!”
