Chapter 385 Ascending the Throne
The top layer of the Well of Chaos.
Feeling the obvious chaos below, as well as the warp energy communication sent by Vashtor that clearly contained questions and anger, Doilos naturally chose to ignore it.
Just as naturally as it had sent the girl favored by the cursed into the well not long ago, it seemed as if the contract it had signed with Vashtor did not exist.
Even though the girl had the power to kill him with just a wave of her hand, she did not resist at all; this also confirmed Doilos's conjecture.
All of this is under the control of the will of the cursed.
Doilos shuddered, and the feathers on his body, which were constantly changing color like flames, stood up.
Since coming to this world, this Lord of Change, who possesses infinite cunning and eternal wisdom and can make countless humans and slaves of darkness live or die at his whim, has gone from "playing a game with the cursed to please the Lord of Change" at first, to "trying to hinder the plans of the cursed", and now to "trying to bring some information back"...
"He who knows the times is a hero", Doilos felt that this sentence was the most appropriate to describe his current mental state. He even recorded this sentence in the "information" he was going to bring back.
"You seem to be afraid, God."
A low sound rang out like thunder, accompanied by the raging storm of a creature's breathing.
The demon looked displeased as he watched the giant forge in front of him being ripped open from the inside by a black, hot metal claw, the air rapidly heating up with the heat pouring out of the furnace, the fine white threads in the distance like a spider's nest were stained with a layer of fiery red, quietly burning into nothingness.
A figure slowly walked out of the torn crack, and the flames of sin reflected its mountain-like burly figure.
Although the process was difficult and tortuous, and even looked as ridiculous as a clown - it doesn't matter anymore;
Herzog finally completed the evolution he had always dreamed of in his life.
Unlike the ugly humans who were crazily biting and devouring the flesh on the remains of the White King not long ago, the transformation that Herzog has undergone is incredible:
The fusion of multiple different evolutionary forces has magnified its physical existence dozens of times. A set of black super-heavy armor with blood-gold trimmings worn on it makes it look like a terrifying, towering statue. Countless blasphemous chaos symbols are carved on the surface, linking it to the entire armor into a living whole.
A white scale cape, completely different from the black, was draped over its shoulders, like muddy snow covering a mountain. The dragon head biting the shoulder armor, or being pierced by the hideous spikes of the shoulder armor, seemed to be not yet dead, staring at everything around with a resentful look;
The human face that used to belong to Tachibana Masamune or Herzog has disappeared, covered by a scale armor that seems to be made of black gold. Dozens of twisted horns proliferate from both sides of the head like Medusa's snake hair; a pair of eyes that seem to be flowing with lava flash with a dangerous light, even covering up the sinful flames in the furnace behind him.
Dragon King, Dragon King Herzog!
Herzog felt the vast ocean-like power in his body. Every breath he took seemed to force the heaven and earth to resonate together. The different elements that made up the world flowed before his eyes. With consciousness alone, he could stir these elements at will, thereby triggering tsunamis, earthquakes, hurricanes and other horrific natural disasters that humans feared.
It raised the pitch-black giant claw in its left hand that seemed to be able to tear apart everything, and danced it gracefully and powerfully like a conductor; while the pitch-black bone giant sword in its right hand, which was engraved with chaos symbols in four different colors: blood red, emerald green, bright pink and dark purple, rested on the ground carelessly.
Outside the Well of Chaos, the earth seemed to be flowing with fiery red blood; magma illuminated the dark rainy night in Japan. The Kuril Islands, Mount Aso, Mount Kirishima, Mount Fuji... Japan's volcanic mountains rhythmically erupted with red smoke columns following the notes conducted by Herzog, like a salute for the new king's coronation.
It grinned with delight, such was the supreme power it now possessed.
No, it's even more powerful!
There was also the powerful force from the dark gods of another world, and the enthronement gift from the mechanical god! Not to mention the White King, I guess I have now surpassed even the so-called "ultimate world" Black King, right?
Herzog puffed out his chest proudly, and a white object hanging in the center of his armor that was like a steep mountain peak swayed and let out a painful and angry scream.
It was a slender body with severed limbs, covered with white scales and with obvious feminine features. Two hot and pitch-black hooks pierced through its shoulders and hung it on Herzog's breastplate, while two other twisted tentacles entangled its lower body; white hair hung down and covered the head of the body, making it impossible to see its face clearly.
Perhaps it was the power of a certain dark god that magnified the dark nature in Herzog's heart. When the sublimation was completed, it left behind the last remnant of the White King and shaped it into its current appearance, just like a hunter showing off his hunting trophies by hanging them on his breastplate;
At the same time, the White King's spirit will not die immediately, and the remaining supreme bloodline maintains its existence, just like the dragon embryo used as a sacrifice on the Lenin. The White King will also exist as a sacrifice to be tortured forever by Herzog. As for the power absorbed, it is just incidental.
"I'm glad you've completed the coronation ceremony, Doctor. Then according to the agreement, you should now share the knowledge from the Great Library with us."
Doilos spoke slowly, gazing at Herzog today with interest.
One thing was beyond its expectation: Vashtor, the Lord of the Forge, designed an image for Herzog that was similar to the "rebellious" Horus Lucapel.
Was it deliberately provoking the damned? Or was it trying to anger the new Primarch, who was once the offspring of angels?
Doilos was delighted, with his beak raised in a human-like manner. He had never expected that the seemingly old-fashioned mechanical Vashtor would have such a unique design.
However, Herzog's sublimation was not a free gift; it was part of his and Vashtor's plan. If the alien refused to hand over the authority of the Great Library, Herzog, the obedient servant, would take its place and usurp the authority.
Unlike the contracts of the Lords of Change that were filled with obscure riddles, Vashtor's contract was clear and explicit: in addition to fulfilling his contract to serve Vashtor, Herzog also had to bear the additional responsibility of the contract that the White King had violated.
As for whether Herzog would fulfill these two contracts... Doilos's beak opened even wider.
"contract?"
Herzog let out a creepy laugh, as if even the air was shaking with fear. "Of course I remember the contract... and the Great Library."
"But the problem is..." Herzog raised his giant claws, and the somewhat lazy bird-headed demon instantly disappeared from the throne;
When it appeared again, it was like a chicken whose neck was grabbed and unable to resist, unable to move in Herzog's huge claws, and the remaining heat from the flames of the hell furnace was still burning it.
"How can the contract I made to that human being in the past constrain me as the new king?! How dare you, half-wasted and incomplete souls, order me to ascend the throne and become the new god of this world?!"
"The fragile human being in the past might have been submissive to you... but now I have become a transcendent being! Don't expect me to be grateful to you. You are just stepping stones for me to ascend the throne!"
Herzog's ferocious face approached Doiros's bird head. His pupils seemed to flow with golden lava. His voice was as loud as a giant bell that shook the entire space. His words were full of arrogance and conceit, as if he was announcing the birth of an emperor not only to the devil but also to the entire world.
Doilos, whose throat was strangled, did not show any emotion, no anger, no panic, no fear; after the pair of eyes on its huge bird head stared at Herzog with interest for a while, it raised its head and laughed wildly with excitement. If it had not been caught by Herzog, it might have laughed so hard that it fell backwards and pounded its body.
A flame of anger rose in Herzog's heart. He remembered that when he was fooled by the Source Girl's Word Spirit before, this damn demon also treated him as a clown and made fun of him.
With a "pop", Doilos's laughter stopped abruptly.
Herzog crushed the demon's disgusting crow head, threw the headless corpse aside, and shook off the black flesh and feathers left by his giant claws.
"After all, you are just the incomplete souls and data that stay in this world for a short time, and I am the eternal king. All time after this world will be ruled by me," Herzog said coldly. "When both of you are defeated, I will seal the passage to that dangerous universe and chop up the low-level creatures that resist me one by one."
As it spoke, it became excited again, and stretched out a sharp claw to pierce the pale body of the breastplate, while the two tentacles entangled with it below began to tighten:
"You are right, my noble White King... We have a long time to spend together..."
The pale body could only scream in pain in response.
A golden flash fell from the wellhead like thunder, and Herzog's huge figure disappeared on the spot, avoiding the attack range of the golden thunder; but it was not the target of the attack.
It was a giant sword burning with blazing golden flames, which smashed Doilos's headless body with perfect precision. Flesh, blood and feathers splashed and silently ignited golden flames and turned into ashes.
It was only then that a deafening roar resounded in the well.
An even brighter golden meteor broke through the fog blockade at the wellhead. With another loud bang, a warrior wearing gold and red armor and with golden wings behind him emitting strong propulsion airflow, landed on the ground, and the golden giant sword returned to his hand.
"Where's that demon!?"
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath. Before he arrived here, he decided to attack and kill Doiros as soon as possible - he could no longer let this Tzeentch demon escape. He had to solve it here once and for all, along with the other enemies.
However, the Sword of Revelation did not emit energy fluctuations that could completely destroy the devil.
"Killed by me."
Herzog said triumphantly as he tortured the pale body on his chest, gazing at the angry face and the shining golden eyes with interest, as more memories, memories and knowledge came flooding back to him.
"you……"
Lu Mingfei immediately realized that Doilos deliberately "died" at Herzog's hands in order to avoid being truly destroyed by himself, but when he saw the current appearance of the heretic Herzog, uncontrollable anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and he almost roared out the name of that treasonous crime.
Although he knew that this was a deliberate trick by the devil, Lu Mingfei immediately shifted his primary target to Herzog.
It's not just because the other party has some similarities with the leader of the rebellion who killed Saint Jarles and seriously injured the Emperor... but also because of the extremely dangerous aura emanating from the other party.
"I remember who you are," Herzog said with a terrifying smile, "You are Zero... No, you should be a copy of Zero. But I smell the ultimate scent from you... I actually ignored and missed this point in the past years."
It pulled out the pitch-black giant sword stuck in the ground, and the four different colors of chaos symbols on the surface of the sword lit up at the same time. "But it doesn't matter. I have plenty of time and power now. I can cut you into pieces and study you slowly."
"You will only be destroyed along with those demons."
Lu Mingfei gritted his teeth and growled.
