Armaments and Calamities

The spear suddenly appeared like a ghost only millimetres away from his chest—

none of the castle's defence managed to detect anything.

The mighty demon lord didn't have a chance to react at all, until he felt the tremendous pain.

"AAarrgh!!--"

--he has been living in the most vile environment for hundreds of years in the past, he only managed to escape hell after a stupid noble had fallen for his tricks and had summon him.

In that place, in order to gain a higher rank and evolve into a higher devil-- he had gone through a lot of agony and torture on his path to nobility.

But THIS pain, it's nothing at all compared to the seventh hell's nether swamp. The very foundations of his soul were currently being burned by the black fire,

--coupled with millions of wretched souls munching on it, as they further disintegrate it at a faster rate.

But the most dreadful thing is, he couldn't even touch and take out this spear.

Not because of the black flames, but because of the bizarre aura being radiated by it.

A primordial aura of an ancient Fiend god whose status is said to be on much higher level than the Dukes of hell and the mighty Archdemons.

Suddenly-- a pulling force emitted from the void and pulled the spear back with its prey.

Scanning…

Retrieving DNA…

Analysing Elemental particles…

Race— Red Devil frog (65℅... not enough data).

Danger rank— C-.

Level— 64.

Elemental Affinity— Fire and Earth.

A list of information appeared on Deus field of vision, as he examines this giant toad on the tip of his spear.

"[Cerebral probe Level 7]--"

Deus only used a lower level probing skill, since it can cause the lower level targets' brain to explode-- making their memories unrecoverable.

After retrieving Adreus' important memories--

"Mischief, take care of the remaining hostile entities inside that citadel."

--receiving her master's command, Mischief's little right hand conjures a giant hammer.

This hammer looks like those magical wand from those kid movies with some girly star design on it. The handle was only 1 meter but the hammer's head is larger than the brat's body.

"Nyaster, what about the prisoners?"

*sigh*-- "Retrieve them and bring them inside the secured chamber of the fortress."

Deus wasn't planning on saving them for free.

After receiving her master's instruction---

*siu!*

With her little body, she was still moving as fast as lightning while carrying her over-sized weapon—

flying towards the citadel while bypassing the field barrier.

"Now then--"

Deus shifted his attention back to that disgusting frog on his spear.

This frog died moments ago while being drag back with the spear. A part of his soul was burned while the others were devoured clean by the wretched spirits.

"[Armaments of Destruction Level 9--- Abominable Shaddoll!]"

A huge yet gloomy looking spell circle appeared on the sky, then a large rusty metal box appeared out from it.

Its old gears started to turn, blowing away the accumulated dusts.

With an eerie noise, the top lid slowly opens.

A metal hand reach out to grab the edge of the box, one hand then a second one followed by another one.

As the whole body managed to emerge-- a broken giant doll dressed in tattered queen's outfit while being surrounded by a depressing aura can be seen.

Its face is cracked open with one of its eye hanging outside of its socket. Each of its one-hundred hands contain a long invisible strings.

Abominable Shaddoll-- is a genuine Level 90 monster!

But for balance sake, this thing requires a lot of suitable <equip materials>, which needed time to accumulate.

Deus tossed the dead body of Adreus towards Shaddoll.

After confirming a suitable material (a level 60 and above, biological organism) two invisible treads pierced the corpse and forcefully invaded the host's body.

[Metamorphosis]-- one of shaddoll's skill.

Letting her upgrade a dead level 60-70 biological beings to level 80 by unlocking their full body potential and upgrading their body with high grade metal nanites—

giving them additional attack and defence.

Also, once the 100 materials were completely collected,

[Heart of the Abominable Queen] will be available.

This skill will be directly activated once she enters battle mode.

With [Heart of the Abominable Queen], as long as not every single one of her puppets died, her health points will never drop below 30%.

This passive skill lasted for two hours.

One of the criminal organization is currently trapped inside of their base,

--defending against bizarre monsters that suddenly appeared across this underground city a few hours ago.

"I received a message, the top organization <Ccapac Apu> had already sent people to the Lord's citadel to ask for help—

but it will take time."

"We can't wait for them, our base's defence is too weak."

"What should we do?"

"How about banding together with the other organization?"

The commanders were in panicked.

They were using long spears and crossbows to prevent the monsters from climbing the wall, but the enemies were gradually increasing in number.

Casper closed his eyes and thought hard--

The top level organizations were too far away from his base. This underground trading center is just too massive.

His men would be swept away by these monsters before they reach an allied organization.

These monsters are really bizarre.

A while ago, one of his men was dragged down from the wall and got bitten by these horde of monsters,

--then after receiving severe injuries, that guy still managed to get back on his feet and also started attacking the wall.

Now looking closely at this bizarre monsters-- most of them looks like the residence of this city.

It was at that moment—

"Everyone! It is serious!"

One of his subordinates came running up the wall.

"There's currently a massive attack on <Ccapac Apu>--

and the latest information said that their base has already fallen to the monsters!"

"What?!--"

The leader of <MonkeyHouse>, who had boasted as the top slave trader in this place, was petrified.

<Ccapac Apu>, one of the ten strongest organizations in Desire Grotto has actually fallen.

*Thud!— dum!* *Thud!— dum!*

--the ground started beating as the noise similar to a giant's footstep were sounded.

From the corner of a faraway building, a massive mass of flesh appeared.

Its huge form is made up of countess mangled bodies of dead people, some of them still have chains on their neck or on their feet attached to them.

The moment it appears, its massive head directly turns toward the direction of their base-- as if smelling something good.

"Awrooo!--"

that huge mass of flesh that doesn't even have a feet started crawling using its enormous arms toward them.

*Thud!— dum!* *Thud!— dum!*

By using the Legendary <Book of Disaster> of the lunatic alchemist Valafar,

--Deus has spent a quarter of an hour inside his Skypalace Babylon's laboratory to create—

< Calamity no.77 [ViralContagion] >.

This man-made disaster will last for 3 days and depending on the number of participants, a good amount of level 60-65 monsters can be harvested.

"Mischief, stay here to supervise this project, I'll leave Shaddoll with you to help guard against outside interference."

After observing that the initial stage of contamination is a success,

--Deus started giving Mischief instructions before leaving.

He wasn't planning on staying here doing nothing for the next three days.

"Nya understand, but where is Nyaster going?"

"The forbidden chasm, legends say-- that it was a burial place of a dead <Player>."

Based on the information he currently have, that player was either an <Entomancer> or an <Insect druid>.

It was widely known in <Yggdrasil> that the first player who managed to become a <World Enemy> using a <World Item> was likely of the insect-warrior race.

The chances were almost zero but if he could get another <Deadly Sin weapon>, then the barrage of attack from a group of Players against him

--will be more laughable.

Also the information he currently have were really lacking.

He needs to investigate the secrets of this world thoroughly, since from the looks of it-- mana is not the only power source on this world.

He already knows about <Wild Magic> that has something to do with spiritual energy,

--but now looking at this dark minerals on his hand which was taken from the demon lord's silo, he has a feeling that this <New World> might hold the key on breaking the shackles of the level-100 cap.

It was very loud outside, then a banging noise followed by the crushing of the building's rooftop.

A pitiful looking man came out of the debris and was currently running away from something could be seen.

Casper tried to catch his breath as he hides in a dark corner while still trembling from despair.

A bulging arm suddenly grabs Casper's neck from behind like grabbing a chicken.

The poor man didn't realize that he ended up going at the most dangerous section of the slave building.
