Chapter 1079 Kill all the way

According to Deckard Cain's description, after the angels and humans defeated and sealed the seven demons into the soul stone, the human world did live in peace for hundreds of years.

As Duanmu Huai said before, if there is no means to completely eliminate subspace creatures, then it is better to imprison them with a life sentence. At least if nothing happens, these guys can be locked up until the end of the world.

The premise is that no one robs the prison.

But be afraid of anything unexpected.

Hundreds of years later, a royal named Leoric brought his men and came here to rule under the orders of the Holy Church at that time.

However, Leoric did not know at the time that this unclaimed land was not a good place, and there was a ruin underneath it. And within the ruins, Diavolo, the King of Fear, one of the three demon gods, is sealed.

Is this a coincidence?

This is certainly not a coincidence. In fact, this is a conspiracy from beginning to end. At that time, a member of the Demon who believed in the Demon God infiltrated the Holy Cult and followed Leoric to this territory as an entourage. His purpose was also very simple, which was to relieve Leoric from his fear. The seal of the King becomes its incarnation in the human world.

After all, if subspace creatures want to appear in the real world, they must have a possessed host. At that time, Leoric, who was smart, brave, and strong, was taken in and became the demon's sacrifice to Diavolo. Taste.

The plan went well, and when Leoric came here to rule, he was quickly smitten by the King of Fear. The King of Terror initially planned to completely possess Leoric's body, but Leoric's determined will prevented his plan. But this does not mean that the King of Fear's plan failed. After all, no human being can resist the thoughts from the King of Fear all the time. So soon, the once kind, noble, and brave Leoric's temperament changed drastically and he became lonely. ,

Fueled by the Lord of Terror's mental contamination and the demon lurking on his side, Leoric began to believe that everyone else was plotting a rebellion, so he launched a brutal massacre, even his wife, the minister and his subordinates are no exception. He even listened to the devil's slander, launched a war against neighboring countries, and sent his eldest son to the front line.

Although the King of Terror failed to possess Leoric's body, everything the mad Leoric did greatly enhanced its power. During the Great Prince's campaign, the Dread King and the Daedra turned their attention to Leoric's second son and kidnapped him.

On the other hand, Leoric's frontline troops were defeated as expected. When his guard captain returned to the palace, Leoric, who learned of the defeat, was furious and wanted to execute his cronies. The captain of the guard also rose up to resist, and finally killed Leoric completely with his men.

But this was not the end. At the moment he was killed by his cronies, Leoric's remaining sanity was also destroyed by anger, and he completely dedicated himself to the dark power. At the same time, the King of Fear, who successfully resurrected with the help of the second prince's body, also used his own power to transform Leoric into an immortal king, becoming its pioneer in killing and spreading fear in the human world.

The entire territory has completely fallen into darkness and evil. At this moment, Leoric's eldest son also returned from the front line. Faced with all this, he could only shoulder his own burden and fight with several brave men. The adventurers went deep into the underground cave together to eliminate Leoric, who led the undead creatures to kill the people. They also successfully defeated the King of Fear who was possessing his brother and trying to resurrect him, and sealed him again.

"......But after that, the prince's personality changed drastically. He successfully defeated the evil, but he became withdrawn, silent, and unwilling to contact others. He often locked himself in the room. At that time, we only I thought that the prince had received too big a blow. After all, he killed his father and brother with his own hands, and his mother had already been killed by his father... But now that I think about it carefully, maybe at that time, his soul had already Occupied by Diablo..."

According to Deckard Cain, just a few years ago, the great prince lived in this small town called Tristram, but in the end he disappeared quietly and no one knew where he went. All I know is that he seems to be heading east... Now it seems obvious that the great prince has become the incarnation of the King of Fear, and it is he who has successfully lifted the seals of other demons.

Of course, this is just history, and there are still the most pressing questions.

"The arrival of Andariel reawakened the evil souls in this once traumatized and cursed land, and the king who had been sleeping in the tomb was also resurrected. It was its army that destroyed this small town. Town, Iron Warrior, we must defeat Leoric and put him into a deep sleep!"

"I know."

Duanmu Huai answered casually, raised the war hammer in his hand and swung it forward, directly smashing the skeleton army blocking the way into pieces.

"That's why we're here, isn't it?"

That's right, Duanmu Huai didn't just sit idle on the roadside and listen to Deckard Kane's chatter. After that, he asked Deckard Kane to take him to the lair of the Immortal King, the nearby Tristram Cathedral. , as for the background story just now - just listen to the radio and tell stories on the road to pass the time.

"But the key to defeating the Skeleton King is his former crown. Without the crown, we can't open the seal..."

"I said it's not necessary."

Duanmuhuai once again had no choice but to interrupt Deckard Kane's thoughts. In fact, Deckard Kane had said this before, but Duanmuhuai felt a headache when he heard it.

He hated this kind of ridiculous mission the most. To put it bluntly, there was a seal in Leoric's necropolis, which could only be unlocked with his crown. So Deckard Cain first wanted Duanmu Huai to find Leoric's crown, but then Duanmu Huai refused decisively. He hated this kind of stupid mission the most. When the time comes to waste time to find the crown, will he still look for the crown? gem? You find the gems, and then you have to repair the crown and have to find a blacksmith? So that's fine if the blacksmith is easy to find, but what if it's hard to find?

After the crown is repaired and then taken back, will it be the year of the monkey and the month of the horse?

Isn't it just a seal? Are you kidding me, is the God of Destruction a fake? No matter what kind of seal it is, can it be more powerful than my destructive magic?

If that doesn't work, I'll just put a melta bomb down there and blow this whole place up!

Who is bored and has the time to go through the process? I just want you to die!

"This is it, Iron Warrior."

After killing the undead creatures blocking the road, Duanmuhuai arrived at a church under the leadership of Deckard Kane. In the church, a thick stone door was tightly sealed and stood there.

"As you can see, the door to Leoric's cemetery has been completely sealed, and Leoric is now the body of the undead. We must use the crown to fix it on Leoric's body. Only on the corpse can we defeat it completely..."

Although Deckard Kane was sincere, Duanmuhuai didn't care at all. He directly blocked Deckard Kane's persuasion, moved his wrist and walked forward. Facing the thick and tightly closed stone door in front of him, Duanmu Huai raised the thunder hammer in his hand and smashed it down with all his strength!

"boom!!!"

The moment the thunder war hammer hit the stone door, the thick and huge stone door was smashed into pieces as if it were made of tofu. Then Duanmu Huai didn't say a word, just held the war hammer in his hand and strode forward. Went in.

"……………………"

Looking blankly at Duanmu Huai disappearing into the stone door, Deckard Cain's whole body felt bad. His eyes widened and he simply couldn't imagine what he had seen.

You must know that Leoric's seal is not a small fish or shrimp. Although Leoric is not the devil of hell, in order to completely seal him, humans also used a lot of power. Logically speaking, if the crown is not used, unless the Hell Demon God comes in person, it is absolutely impossible to lift the seal so easily!

Who is that man?

"boom!!"

Soon, the roar from inside the door brought Deckard Kane back to his senses. He no longer hesitated and hurriedly walked into the door in front of him.

"Go to hell, you filthy undead souls, there is no place for you in this world!"

Duanmu Huai's roar shook the entire tomb like thunder. He strode forward, completely ignoring the siege of ghosts, skeleton guards, and fat and tall rotting stench coming from all directions. He raised his war hammer and moved forward. With a sudden sweep, before the war hammer could hit the monster in front of him, the air wave it brought up was like a roaring flood, whizzing through the corridor in front of him, blasting everything that dared to stand in front of it into pieces. .

For Duanmu Huai, dealing with these bastards was a piece of cake. He didn't even need to use skills, he could kill them all by just leveling A.

But for Deckard Cain, the only thing he can do at this moment is to doubt life.

As a member of the Horadrim, Deckard Cain has been studying demons all his life. Although he is somewhat boastful, he believes that there are not many people in this world who can understand demons better than himself.

However, the scene Deckard Cain saw now completely subverted his common sense.

Deckard Cain is naturally familiar with undead creatures. For example, skeleton guards are not just ordinary skeletons. They must be crushed with magic or magic weapons or holy power to kill them completely. Otherwise, even if you break it into pieces, it will recover again.

And for ghosts, physical attacks don't work at all. After all, ghosts are spirits rather than entities - that's how it should be.

But.........What the hell is going on! !

Seeing the wooden locust tree in front of him sweep across with a hammer without hesitation, and then the undead creatures in front of him were blasted into pieces and completely broken, Deckard Kane felt bad all over. Just watching Duanmu Huai's battle made Deckard Kane feel like his decades of research on demons had been completely overturned.

Are the undead so vulnerable?

Why was this Iron Warrior able to destroy so many undead souls so easily with just a few swings of his hammer?

Is there anything I haven't researched thoroughly enough?

Deckard Cain just followed Duanmu Huai all the way forward. Not only could the undead souls on the road be unable to stop him, but even the sealed gates could not resist the footsteps of this terrifying warrior. More than once, Deckard Cain saw Duanmu Huai not even looking at the tightly closed iron door in front of him, and just slammed into it like a crazy bull.

You must know that it is a door made of meteorite iron and magic gold! Even Duanmuhuai can't hit it!

Then he heard a "boom", and Duanmu Huai continued to move forward against the door, while the door frame that was originally connected to the wall had been lifted up by him... and then Duanmu Huai casually lifted it up... Throw it aside.

Is this really something humans can do? !

"Leorric, come out and die!"

Duanmu Huai kicked open the last door, and at the same time, a figure appeared in front of Duanmu Huai.

"Stupid mortals! You will never defeat me!!"

Staring at Duanmuhuai, Leoric's undead let out an angry howl - but the next moment, Duanmuhuai suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed it by the neck.

He actually grabbed the soul with his bare hands!

Seeing this, Deckard Cain was completely dumbfounded, and even Leoric was confused. Although there was no expression on its skull head at the moment, looking at the beating soul in its eye sockets You can tell from the flames. Obviously Leoric never thought there would be such a development...

"That's it, dirty undead, your existence itself is a stain on this world, just die obediently - your soul will be completely annihilated, and you will never be able to stand out again!

As Duanmuhuai spoke, he raised his right hand and grabbed Leoric's right hand, and then shook it hard!

"No-------!!!"

This was the last cry of the unlucky Skeleton King. It only had time to let out this scream, and the next moment the blazing black flames completely erupted, swallowing it completely in an instant. Immediately afterwards, the flames surrounding the Skeleton King suddenly expanded, and then exploded like a ball. Then there was only a "ding" sound, and something flew out and landed on the ground next to it.

"……………………"

At this moment, Deckard Cain's jaw dropped to the ground. He looked at Duanmu Huai and didn't know what to say for a moment.

In fact, at this moment, Deckard Cain really wanted to rush over and grab Duanmuhuai to see what kind of species he was!

That's Leoric! The King of the Dead! Even the hero Aidan back then had to put in a lot of effort to defeat him, but how could it be solved so easily by you?

Is this scientific?

Is this reasonable?

What the hell is going on here?

Just when Deckard Kane was roaring in his heart, Duanmuhuai had turned around and stared at him.

"Okay, let's consider it done."

"Ah...yes..."

Hearing Duanmuhuai's inquiry, Deckard Kane nodded a little distractedly. With Duanmuhuai eliminating Leoric, the source of all evil, the originally gloomy necropolis seemed much calmer now, and even the undead running around before had disappeared...

"Who are you? Iron Warrior?"

At this moment, Deckard Kane stared at Duanmuhuai, his eyes becoming nervous. Deckard Cain has never seen anyone who can catch evil spirits with his bare hands, not to mention the dark flame at the end - it is not the holy flame from heaven, but is filled with some kind of coldness, terror, and death. A condensation of strength.

Could it be that the Iron Warrior in front of him is also a demon?

No, but if he was a demon, why did he come to destroy Leoric?

"I said, I am the Grand Inquisitor of the Inquisition."

Duanmuhuai said this calmly, then walked forward and came to the place where Leoric exploded. He saw a big sword lying there on the ground.

"Hmm...this big sword looks pretty good."

Duanmu Huai picked up the sword and shook it. He didn't think much of the sword's power. The main reason was that the shape of the sword suited Duan Muhuai's liking.

Well, a big sword, paired with his armor that is covered in skulls.

Duanmuhuai took his sword and found a mirror nearby to make gestures with, then walked to the throne, swept away Leoric's corpse which had become a pile of broken bones due to the loss of his soul, and then sat on it. . I saw him sitting on Leoric's stone throne with a golden sword, holding a big sword in one hand, and raising his head to look at the mirror in front of him.

"Let me see, eh...it's not like the ice toilet doesn't smell that bad..."

Duanmu Huai made a few poses and started mumbling.

"Steel, Iron Warrior?"

At this moment, Deckard Cain also cautiously came over.

"If you want to identify the properties of this sword, I can help..."

"Oh, I'm just playing with it."

After posing a few times, but it didn't feel right, Duanmuhuai also lost interest in the sword and threw it directly to Deckard Kane. The latter took the weapon thrown by Duanmu Huai and was speechless. Based on Deckard Cain's experience, he can naturally see that the weapon in front of him is an excellent dark gold-level weapon. Generally speaking, for adventurers, this is the most powerful equipment after the ancients. However, Duanmuhuai just threw it away casually?

This is Leoric's weapon! Even though he's dead, why don't you show him some respect?

Just when Deckard Cain was speechlessly complaining in his heart, Duanmu Huai's voice came to his ears again.

"Okay, I'll go back if nothing happens."

"Hey? Iron Warrior, wait for me...!!"
