Chapter 469 In Heaven
The war between Heaven and the Demon World broke out. But because both sides were fighting in the Purgatory Space, the humans of the Bayonetta world did not know about this war.This strange power in the eyes of humans would further deepen their fear…
After entering Heaven, Roy led a group of demon lords to hold the lines and supervise this new Eternal War. Heaven relied on its geographical advantages to defend and counterattack. The vast war spread across tens of thousands of square kilometers, and angels and demons died at every moment.
There was no such thing as an intermission. Tens of millions of demons were divided into several waves and continuously poured into Heaven to maintain the offensive against the angels. Many angels on the battlefield did not die because they were weak but because of exhausting their stamina and magic power.
Although Roy had seen this kind of Eternal War once in the Darksiders world, he was one of those being commanded at that time, so he did not understand it very well. But this time, he was observing how demons warred from the perspective of the commander. The insights obtained from different perspectives were completely different. The terrifying and cruel way that the demon army advanced really renovated his understanding again.
What kind of concept was thirty-five million demons? It was an endless tide! In comparison, in Frostfire City, Roy had led tens of thousands of troops to fight against other demon lords, which could only be said to be a small, trifling matter.
As he looked at the angels\' defense lines being continuously broken under the attacks of the demons, their irresistible force let him realize what powerful influence was for the first time. Being able to command so many demons in wars, it was no wonder that the demon lords wanted to fight Mundus for the position of the ruler of the Demon World.
The Demon World here had existed for a long time, and many demon races that did not exist in the Abyss had evolved here. Although most of them were low-level demons with low strength, the battle success was due to the many races. On the other hand, since ancient times, although the angels had improved, they still maintained the appearances of ancient angels. The entire race had not actually developed much.
However… he had to admit that these ancient angels were indeed powerful. Although these angels born for war were a little ugly, even low-level angels were existences that could fight a few low-level demons. Although there was the influence of the holy light of Heaven, causing the demons to be suppressed, ancient angels definitely had the ability to crush demons in a one-on-one battle… If not for the fact that there were too many demons, and the angels were basically besieged, it was hard to say which side would have had the advantage.
The layers of defenses of the angels were constantly being broken. But if you were to look carefully, you would find that the progress of the demon\'s advance inevitably slowed down as they moved farther forward. This feeling was like a flood being stopped by a dam…
However, despite the demon\'s advancement slowing down, Roy had already achieved his initial goal. The demons now occupied dozens of floating islands.
These floating islands formed a part of Heaven. In the center of the islands, there was a special magic device used to construct \'paths of holy light\'. After all, although angels had wings, it was impossible for them to stay in the air all day long, right? They also needed to land and rest. These paths of holy light connected in series with the floating islands naturally formed the illusory ground for angels to land on. After occupying these floating islands, the wingless demons had a place to stay.
The angels actually wanted to destroy these islands. But firstly, the demon\'s offensive was fierce, and secondly, they did not have enough manpower. So, in the end, they destroyed only a few devices on the floating islands, causing some paths of holy light to collapse. The demons occupied almost all the rest.
Leading the wingless demons to push forward on the ground was naturally Inferno Overlord Berial. This big fire bull with a demon horn broken off by Roy had finally found a target to vent his anger on. Tens of thousands of flame demons brought from his homeland followed him. With a raise of his hand, countless Meteor Showers smashed into the angel camp, causing the affected angels to burn and scream. Every time Berial heard these screams, he seemed very happy.
Madama Styx flapped her moth wings and flew in the sky. Countless fluorescent powder shining with starlight spread with the wind. The poisonous powder was very lethal to angels. If the poisoned angels were unable to resist the corrosion of the poison, their flesh and blood would melt, their bodies withering in just a few seconds.
The demon lords attacked, and the opposing high-level angels did not idle either. Countless arrows condensed from holy light fell from the sky and plunged into the demon army. The demons pierced by the holy light arrows all screamed and twisted desperately. Finally, their bodies turned into flying ashes. In addition to the arrows, there were also huge blades condensed from holy light. These swords of holy light appeared frequently on the battlefield, and every swing would take away the lives of numerous demons.
Giant golden ships flew over from the distant sky, and the heads of these ships were actually human faces. They were also one of the ancient angels and were known as kinships, and in the cabins that formed their bodies, they were carrying a large number of angel soldiers. They were the support troops of the angels, and the ones escorting them were two-headed dragon angels with large angel halos on their heads and huge wings on their backs. These two-headed dragons had a large upside-down face on their abdomen…
These angels looked really strange. If you put aside the powerful holy light power on their bodies and said that they were demons, people would actually believe it… But no matter how strange they were, these angels were still formidable. Although the demons kept advancing, the casualties were immense.
The entire sky of Heaven was currently full of countless elemental powers—flames, frost, poison, holy light, and so on. These various elemental powers intertwined with one another and then erupted in both camps, sending countless body fragments and blood flying, creating a tragic scene of an Armageddon War. Just looking at this scene would probably cause ordinary people to fall into endless nightmares for the rest of their lives.
Roy was currently riding on Rafaro\'s body. Regarding the demon body left behind by the centipede lord, Roy had not had the time to modify Rafaro. But his nearly one-kilometer-long body was still massive. The Sky Dragon of Osiris hovered in the sky behind the demon camp. Everyone knew that this was where the command camp of the Demon World was.
Julia and Benia had already merged long ago and summoned Junia to fight on the battlefield. At this time, only Cassandra and Sparda were following Roy. This vast battle scene was too shocking for Cassandra, and it was not the time for her to display her strength. Sparda stayed here because he was a magic swordsman, and he would not be of much use on such a battlefield with large numbers. Moreover, he needed to help Roy coordinate and command. An overly large demon army was not something that a single person could handle.
After observing the battle for a while, Roy pointed at the distant sky and asked, "Sparda, that floating island should be the headquarters of Heaven, right?"
The floating island Roy was referring to was the largest floating island in sight. From where they were, they could only see a long horizon. According to his estimation, this floating island was probably thousands of square kilometers.
Sparda nodded. "That should be it. Do you see the enormous tree on the island? That\'s the Kabbalah, also known as the Tree of Life! Almost every Heaven established by angels has this tree planted!"
Sparda was talking about the enormous tree on the largest floating island. The crown of the tree almost covered the entire island. The height of this tree was equally astonishing, and it appeared lush and dazzling, as though every leaf was shining. It was a tremendous source of light. From afar, only through the gaps of the branches could they see a bit of the trunk.
"The Kabbalah? Is it the opposite of the Qliphoth?" Roy thought of the gigantic tree that Urizen had planted in the human world.
"Yes, the Kabbalah is \'bestowment\'. After planting it, it will continuously release life force and holy light power into the surrounding space. This is also why Heaven is always full of light. This is a plant that angels need to transform space!" Sparda explained. "And the Qliphoth is different. It is a tree of \'plunder\', and it will plunder all the life force in the surrounding space to strengthen itself. Originally, Qliphoths were a plant of the Demon World, but in the cruel environment of the Demon World, they wouldn\'t grow well and were malnourished, so you basically can\'t see such a tall tree in the Demon World."
Roy nodded. It was fine as long as he understood. Since Sparda said so, then this island planted with the Kabbalah was definitely the headquarters of Heaven.
Perhaps only that island could be regarded as a true \'Heaven\'… And Roy\'s goal was naturally to capture that place.
An entire day after the opening of the Eternal War, a small figure appeared. Sareth, who had transformed into his demon form, flapped his flame wings and rushed back. He carefully avoided the places on the battlefield with the most intense fights and circled around to find Roy from behind. He brought back all the information he had learned in the human world…
