37: Chapter 37
"As I thought, I should have killed that brat myself back then. That useless piece of trash who can't do anything right."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer furrowed his brows, clearly annoyed by Vali's pestering.
It wasn't that he couldn't kill this guy, it just took too much time.
By the time that Red Dragon really broke the final seal, who knew if Dragon Eater Samael would still be there?
His goal for coming here wasn't just to take the Red Dragon Emperor's life.
More importantly, it was to capture Dragon Eater Samael.
That was the true top priority.
Bang!
Another muffled sound echoed.
Rizevim Livan Lucifer kicked out, and Vali's Juggernaut Drive form was instantly forcibly dispersed.
But before he could even catch his breath, Vali re-entered Juggernaut Drive mode, blocking his path.
Gathering all his strength, he smashed fiercely towards Rizevim Livan Lucifer.
"You really are like a fly."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer shattered the attack with a single punch, flashed in front of Vali, and struck with his palm, aiming straight for his heart.
Vali had already sustained serious injuries by this time, but his reaction was not slow at all.
He concentrated all his power into his hands and met Rizevim Livan Lucifer's palm head-on.
He couldn't dodge, so he would fight.
Even if he died, he had to tear a piece of flesh off this old thing.
"Tch."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer spat.
He had no interest in playing a game of trading lives with this unfilial grandson.
Although Vali's attack might not necessarily kill him, it could very well severely injure him.
In the current situation, if he were truly severely injured, his Sacred Gear Canceller might just collapse.
If that happened, and Vali was lucky enough not to die, it would be a huge problem.
Rizevim Livan Lucifer immediately changed his technique, blasting Vali over a dozen zhang away with one palm.
"Zeus, how long are you going to keep watching?"
He suddenly roared in all directions.
"Will you only be happy when the Red Dragon Emperor wakes up and leads the Four Great Emperors to slaughter your entire Greek Pantheon?"
Cao Cao and the others' expressions changed instantly.
They had almost forgotten that a Super Devil like Zeus was still nearby.
If he really attacked at this moment, it would be a huge problem.
Three Super Devils attacking together was not something they could withstand.
But sometimes, fate is just that shitty.
The more you fear something, the more it happens.
Just like now—
The sky suddenly rumbled, and thunderous light fell from the sky.
The void shattered, and an ocean condensed from thunder surged out from the horizon.
The gods shook their heads, watching this scene unfold for the third time in a single day.
Three Super Devils, joining forces to siege and kill the Red Dragon Emperor.
This kind of treatment had only appeared during the ancient The Great War.
At that time, the ones the First Generation Four Great Demon Kings of the Underworld ganged up on were that very god.
"Master!"
When Tsubaki Shinra saw Zeus descend again, the shadow in her heart became impossibly thick.
Red Dragon Emperor...
Zeus gripped his spear tightly, the killing intent in his eyes as cold as ice.
Luo Yu kept his eyes closed, standing there motionless.
The first two times, because of the rules of the Greek Pantheon, he couldn't use lethal force.
But this time was different.
All three Super Devils were present; even if the Red Dragon Emperor woke up, they could still join forces to kill him.
The spear drew upon the thunder filling the sky, infinite electric light surged madly into the spear shaft, and an aura of destruction exploded in the air.
Cao Cao and the others wanted to rush over to stop him.
But their opponents didn't give them the chance at all.
Before, they were desperately dragging the enemies down, but now it was the opposite; the enemies were holding them back tightly.
"Go to hell, Red Dragon Emperor!"
Zeus roared, and the spear was swung down violently.
The world instantly lost its voice.
Everything seemed to have its color drained away.
Only an incomparably huge bolt of thunder remained, engulfing the entire villa ruins along with Luo Yu, everything crushed and vanished in the light.
The surroundings slowly regained their color.
Sona stared blankly at what was in front of her, feeling as if she had been emptied out.
There was nothing left.
The villa ruins were gone, that space was gone, and even Luo Yu had disappeared.
All that remained was a pitch-black void, where nothing could be seen clearly.
"Luo Yu..."
Sona's legs went weak, and she collapsed to the ground, her eyes fixed on that void, muttering to herself.
"It can't be... It can't be..."
Tsubaki Shinra and Akeno Himejima stood nearby, their eyes terrifyingly red, their gazes hollow, their lips trembling, just repeating the same words over and over.
"Damn it..."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer gritted his teeth, his face full of unwillingness.
He searched that void over and over again.
He couldn't even find a trace of the Dragon Slayer Curse.
This meant that Dragon Eater Samael had also disappeared along with the Red Dragon Emperor.
Completely wiped from this world.
Rizevim Livan Lucifer simply couldn't swallow this.
In contrast, Loki and Zeus breathed a sigh of relief.
They had no interest in Samael; their target from the beginning had only been the Red Dragon Emperor.
Especially Zeus.
The Red Dragon Emperor was dead, and the thorn in his heart had finally been removed.
The gods nearby had various reactions.
Some sighed and shook their heads.
No matter how stunning the Red Dragon Emperor was, hadn't he still fallen?
In the end, for the Three Realms, it could be considered one less piece of trouble.
But more people were secretly rejoicing.
With the Red Dragon Emperor dead, no one could unlock the shackles on the Dragon species.
The Dragon species were already enough to make the major pantheons wary, fortunately, there were a bunch of dragon-slaying weapons suppressing them.
If the shackles were gone, even if the Dragon species wouldn't become much stronger, just thinking about it made one's scalp tingle.
The expressions on Cao Cao and the others' faces didn't change much.
They simply didn't believe that the Red Dragon Emperor would die so easily.
There was no basis for it, they just didn't want to believe it from the bottom of their hearts.
"Ouch... that hurts like hell, Zeus, you really are ruthless."
"A mere Red Dragon Emperor, was it worth all three of you Super Devils attacking together?"
Loki, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, Zeus, and the various gods present all thought that the matter was settled.
As a result, a voice of pain suddenly sounded, and everyone was stunned.
In the darkness, a pitch-black giant dragon slowly revealed its form.
Nearly fifty zhang long, about the same size as the Holy Light Dragon when Luo Yu used his Balance Breaker.
The dragon scales on its body were rotten in many places, flesh and blood were blurred, and small electric arcs were darting about on the wounds.
Although this black dragon looked wretched, that pressure belonging to a Super Devil instantly enveloped the entire scene.
The expressions of Rizevim Livan Lucifer, Loki, and Zeus turned extremely ugly instantly.
Because they saw it.
The person protected behind the black dragon was none other than Luo Yu, who had just had no aura at all.
Luo Yu was still keeping his eyes closed; Zeus's terrifying attack had been borne completely by this black dragon.
Moreover, the Red Dragon Emperor didn't have a single injury on him.
When Sona and the others saw that Luo Yu was still alive, they were so excited they could barely control themselves.
Sona had lost control of her emotions several times today, which was unprecedented.
"The Dark Dragon of the New Moon, Crom Cruach."
"You escaped the siege of the gods back then, and now you dare to openly harbor the Red Dragon Emperor?"
"You are setting yourself against the entire Greek Pantheon."
Zeus was furious, his rage impossible to suppress.
Thunder surged wildly behind him, and ten thousand bolts of lightning exploded simultaneously.
The blow that should have taken the Red Dragon Emperor's life had been ruined by this damned Evil Dragon, the Dark Dragon of the New Moon.
Crom Cruach transformed into the appearance of a young man.
He shook his finger, then stared fixedly at Zeus, his tone very heavy.
"It is not that I want to set myself against your Greek Pantheon."
"It is your Greek Pantheon that insists on being enemies with our Dragon race."
As soon as he finished speaking.
From all directions, long and deep dragon roars resounded.
It wasn't one dragon, but a large group of dragons had arrived.
The Demon Saint Dragon Tannin, the Chaos Karma Dragon Tiamat, and the West Sea Dragon Child Jade Dragon.
These three Dragon Kings who possessed Super Devil King Class strength arrived first, directly surrounding Loki and Fenrir.
Loki's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly.
Immediately after, the Holy Light Dragon of the Heavenly Realm, the Ice Dragon of the Northern European Ice Kingdom, the Demon Dragon of the Underworld...
more and more Dragon species arrived, and not a single one was below Devil King Class strength.
The number was terrifying, almost a hundred.
Among them, there were over a dozen at the Super Devil King Class level.
With so many terrifyingly powerful dragons gathered together, even if some gods knew something in advance, their expressions changed now.
This power, even if the mainstream pantheons were to come out in full force, probably couldn't compare.
If the major factions were tied together before The Great War, perhaps they could clash with this formation.
"Loki, Rizevim Livan Lucifer, Zeus, if you three still want to fight, we old things will accompany you to the end."
The Demon Saint Dragon Tannin stared fixedly at the three, his eyes full of fighting spirit.
This time, even Rizevim Livan Lucifer couldn't keep a straight face.
With over a dozen Super Devil King Class dragons standing here, even if he had the strength of a Super Devil, he wouldn't dare act recklessly.
Zeus didn't say a word, his body shook, and he turned into lightning and ran away.
Loki and Fenrir swept a look at Luo Yu unwillingly, and could only retreat.
The Dragon species were all here; the Red Dragon Emperor definitely wouldn't die today.
Unless two or three more Super Devils popped up.
But looking at the whole world, whether they were on the surface or hidden, there were less than twenty in total.
Who would offend so many dragons just to kill a Red Dragon Emperor?
"Just because the Red Dragon Emperor can break free from the shackles doesn't mean you can too. Don't even count on him teaching you this skill."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer scanned the surrounding dragons, his tone full of mockery.
"Rizevim Livan Lucifer, when did you become so talkative?"
Crom Cruach's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
He was an Evil Dragon; although he hadn't caused trouble in the Three Realms for a long time, he still had a bloodthirsty nature in his bones.
"If you don't want to die here, get lost."
"Hmph."
Rizevim Livan Lucifer stared at Luo Yu behind Crom Cruach.
He would settle this account sooner or later.
With a wave of his hand, he tore open space directly and disappeared into the void.
The group of dragons saw him leave, but they didn't relax at all.
Instead, they surrounded Luo Yu in the middle.
This was the hope that could unlock the shackles on the Dragon species; there could be absolutely no mistakes.
Time passed bit by bit, and it got dark.
The residents of Kuoh Town were all knocked unconscious.
If they were to see dragons flying all over the sky, they would probably be scared to death.
Luo Yu was surrounded by the group of dragons, as if he was desperately trying to break through something.
Beads of sweat seeped from his forehead.
After a while.
A cracking sound.
It was the sound of chains breaking again.
But this time the sound was much more violent than before, as if the last stubborn base had finally shattered.
The dragon species aura on Luo Yu's body slowly became elusive.
The group of dragons could feel it; it was a fundamental metamorphosis, as if layers of restraints were being stripped away, approaching the most primitive origin.
The group of dragons all understood in their hearts.
The Red Dragon Emperor had succeeded.
He had severed the shackles on his body.
When Luo Yu opened his eyes, his pupils had changed color.
They were no longer his previous black eyes, but a pair of pupils glowing with a pale golden light, like the eyes of a saint, carrying a dignity that made people afraid to look directly at them.
