558. Episode 558
The whole situation was like this.
– The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, shrugs his shoulders, claiming that his contractor is stronger.
– The constellation, ‘The Old Man Riding a Crocodile’, is incredulous at the nonsense he spouts.
Yoo Seo-ah and Kang Han-cheol.
The two, who usually conquered trials separately, joined together as one to conquer the Demon World and the Eight Hells, and the confrontation between their constellations, Baal and Agares, also became more intense than usual.
The battle of pride over who is stronger than their contractor reached its peak in the final eight-legged hell.
– The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, shouts, ‘If that’s the case, why don’t we check it out this time?’
– The constellation, ‘The Old Man Riding a Crocodile’, sets up the board right away, saying that there will be no more trouble later.
– The constellation, ‘The Crowned Spider’, laughs at the thought of how old and weary it will be.
– The constellation, ‘The Old Man Riding the Crocodile’, laughs that it is finally time to dethrone the braggart from the top spot.
The two prepared the board in earnest.
Then, they twisted the power of the seal that was the reward for the Eight-Hand Hell and led Yoo Seo-ah and Kang Han-cheol to the plate they had created.
It was originally impossible, but coincidentally, this was the Demon World. Compared to other trials, it was the most optimal place for the two Demon Kings to demonstrate their power.
As the saying goes, when whales fight, the shrimp’s back gets broken, and that’s how the showdown between Yoo Seo-ah and Kang Han-cheol began.
‘Thanks to that, we were both able to grow tremendously.’
The outcome was good, but it was a situation where one of the two could have really died.
How dare you treat the contractor you cherished so much like a game piece.
It was an incident that reminded us anew that the two were ‘demons’.
And after a while.
– Welcome to the 80th floor of the ordeal.
– Topic: Asurado (the way of cultivation)
– You have arrived at the end of the demon world, in Asura, the true hell where war and fighting never cease.
– There is no escape.
– Survive in the fierce battlefield.
Everyone, including Se-un, finished resting and preparing at their residence and entered the final gate of the Demon World.
“I heard about it from Zenon, but it’s more than I expected.”
Yu Seo-ah’s expression hardened.
That is because, unlike other trials so far, a fierce battlefield unfolded as soon as one entered the trial.
“Kihihihi! Die, die, die!”
“Kuaaaah!”
Phew, phew.
“Idiot.”
Crunch-
“You’re the stupid one.”
Even if it’s just a dream.
An eternal battlefield where war and fighting never cease, as described in the description of the trials.
There were no allies, and all sides were filled with enemies.
Blood and flesh were constantly spurting before my eyes, and the floor was so red and wet that it was difficult to tell what it had been like before.
The only silver lining was that Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild were located on a hill away from the battlefield, perhaps as a minimal show of consideration for the players.
“This hill will collapse soon too.”
“I can already feel their gaze. I can see them targeting us even as we fight.”
“That would be expected. Humans would seem like easy prey among demons.”
Even if it’s considered consideration, it’s only temporary.
This safe zone lasts less than three minutes.
Players will have to figure out the ordeal in a short amount of time and prepare to enter the fray.
As the description of the ordeal states, there was no way to avoid it.
“Our Cheonghae also could not pass through here and ended up staying in Elheim.”
“It’s overwhelming.”
“Yes. In fact, I consider myself lucky just to have used the Return Stone properly and escaped from this battlefield.”
Even Sura, the wall that even Elheim, the most powerful guild in Elheim, could not overcome.
The Diablo Guild could immediately understand what Zenon was saying.
The battlefield before my eyes looked equally fierce and desperate.
“Master… … .”
“As I said, I will move separately.”
“All right.”
Se-un was the first to leave the safe zone.
Unlike everyone else, whose goal is to pass the trials, Seun’s goal this time is to find a demon that will make it into the top 10.
There was a time limit on the Surado, so there was no time to waste.
“We’re wondering how we’re going to survive during that time limit. As expected, the perspectives themselves are different.”
“Finding the top ten demons within the time limit? I wonder if they really went through the same ordeal as us.”
“We just have to do our job well.”
“That’s right. I just hope I don’t worry you unnecessarily and end up summoning Diablo’s Master.”
“I would never do that.”
“I think the same.”
Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild’s first goal was to prevent Seun from turning back.
If possible, they would have liked to help Seun fight the demon he had found, but they also knew that it would be impossible.
There is no need to crowd.

All you have to do is do your best in your position.
“It’s just beginning.”
“We will proceed as planned.”
“Yes. Down, Arum. Are you ready?”
“Yeah! I’m already ready!”
“Just hold on a little longer! I’ll try to do it as fast as I can!”
“Don’t worry, I’ve practiced it several times at my residence!”
“Please. You are the key to this ordeal.”
“I know!”
“Trust us!”
As planned, Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild set up camp around the twin sisters.
As if the time had come, the hill collapsed and the demons of Asura turned their heads as if they had been waiting.
“I thought I was going to die holding it in.”
“Would you like to have some soft skin for the first time in a while?”
“Yeah, I’m tired of gnawing on your hard leather.”
All the demons in the area were after Diablo and Cheonghae.
Even if it’s just a dream.
It was a nearly impossible ordeal to pass alone, as all the demons swarming here were enemies.
Before returning, Seun-do barely managed to get through by sticking to other guilds’ strategies and making the most of the travel guide.
However, Diablo and the people of the Cheonghae Guild were not the ordinary players that the demons had faced so far.
“I’ll start first. Skell!”
Phew-
With Zeno’s shout, his partners in the subspace, Whitebeard and Skell, powerfully spurted water.
The demons who had been approaching began to panic at the sudden baptism of water.
Although Zaratan was still young enough to be taken out, just spitting out water was enough to set up a board.
“I’ll take care of this.”
– Player Kang Han-cheol uses ‘Open War’.
Kwaaaaang!!
On the other side of Zeno, a strong iron fist struck the ground.
After finishing the Eight-Hand Hell and facing Agares himself, his fists were noticeably different from before.
“This power!”
“How can a human have this kind of power!”
“Ugh!”
The ground was twisting beyond shaking.
Demons that were quickly approaching with the intention of taking human flesh immediately were caught between the twisted ground and had their bodies torn and crushed.
The same goes for the other direction.
A stronger Yusua took the lead and swept away the demons while commanding her allies, while Baekhyun summoned an army of undead to confront the demons.
An overwhelming gap.
This would be enough to scare the demons, but the demons of Asura lacked the ‘survival instinct’.
“Hahahaha! This is it. This is it!”
“It’s been a while since I’ve seen such a thrilling battle!”
“Try harder! More!”
“A new wind has blown through Sura Island!”
As Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild became active, the demons became even more excited and ran wild.
They were all demons who entered the Asura of their own free will. They were demons who had gone mad, intoxicated by the battlefield.
For those demons, the intrusion of Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild was actually a great joy.
“Baekhyun! Could you please send some support to the left?”
“of course!”
“Mr. Hancheol, please guard the position. There will be ample opportunity to come forward later.”
“… … Okay.”
Harry was steadily controlling the entire battlefield while keeping his enemies in check.
Although he was excellent before, his conducting was even more advanced than before.
Harry wasn’t the only one who felt that way. Diablo and everyone in Cheonghae felt comfortable following Harry’s lead.
‘It works.’
Confidence came over Harry’s face.
While following Seun around on the 79th floor of the Mahae, he was able to learn the ‘path’.
That power has had a huge impact not only on finding your way, but also on finding your way on the battlefield, as it does now.
“Araum, Daun! Is it still there?”
“It’s almost over!”
“little bit more!”
But securing the position was harder than expected.
The situation would have been better if we had freely changed positions and advanced while exploiting the enemy’s gaps.
Even when a strong enemy swarmed and the balance was broken, it was almost like hardship to hold onto one position.
“You’re trying to keep your place in Sura Island? It seems you still don’t understand this place.”
“It can’t be helped, since I’ve just stepped into hell.”
“Then I guess I’ll have to show you the bitter taste of Sura.”
The demons here were not stupid, they were just battle-mad.
As soon as the demons realized that Diablo and the Cheonghae Guild were holding their ground, they began to devise a strategy in earnest.
Didn’t they say the enemy of my enemy is my friend?
The sight of them stopping the battle for a moment and moving strategically was like watching an army.
And against those demons too.
“Just hold on a little longer!”
Diablo and Cheonghae did not run away.
Rather, they stuck together even more and protected each other’s backs.
“Hahahahaha! You’re trying to protect that, aren’t you? I’ll crush that hope first!”
“Flying up!”
The demons didn’t just pressure us with strategy.
A giant demon flew towards their destination, understanding exactly why Diablo and Cheonghae were standing guard.
A demon so huge that it’s hard to tell how it flies.
Even if I didn’t attack, it seemed like if I fell to that size, all my plans up until now would go down in vain.
And, Diablo had one person waiting for just such a situation.
“That won’t do~”
“Hahahahaha! Can you stop this body with that thin body?”
Arcana raised her right hand towards the sky.
One card disappeared, and instead, a giant screen, no, a giant card appeared in the air.
“I’ll crush this thin barrier together with you!”
BANG!!
A huge crash.
However, the demon’s body did not crush Diablo.
The cards that Arcana displayed ignored physical power and perfectly defended against the devil’s fall.
“This can’t be… … .”
“Have a nice trip~”
Crunch.
Her scythe cut the giant demon’s body in two.
“They’re coming in!”
“What is that… … .”
“Haha, it’s going to be hard to stop now.”
Because such a huge commotion was occurring, all the demons in the area began to focus their attention on it.
Demons, beasts, and even a dragon-like monster that seemed quite high up in the hierarchy was opening its mouths and gathering its breath towards this place.
The biggest drawback of the Mercury War.
The problem was that it was difficult to block continuous long-range attacks.
In fact, the demons realized this and stopped blindly attacking, instead using long-range attacks to reduce Diablo and Cheonghae’s health.
If I had been hit by that breath here, I might have ended up in a really dangerous situation.
And at that moment.
“end!”
“It’s done!”
A lively voice came from the center, and a huge wind pressure rose throughout the area.
A strong wind pressure, as if a giant bird were flapping its wings.
The demons who had closed their eyes without realizing it due to the wind pressure opened their eyes again, and a huge castle had risen in that place.
– Player Hanareum builds ‘Inner Strength’.
– Player Han Da-un builds an ‘outer castle’.
– The power of the two players synergizes.
– The divinities of ‘Malpas’ and ‘Halpas’ are imbued into the structures of both players.
This was Diablo and Cheonghae’s original plan.
Sura-dora is the practice of building a castle in the middle of enemy territory.
In the middle of the valley like that.
– A unique structure, the ‘Demon King’s Castle’, is built in Sura Island.
A black fortress that fits perfectly into the terrain of Sura Island stands tall.
