I have an Apocalypse City
Chapter 1154 - Chapter 1154 Chapter 1156 Lord of Hell_1

Chapter 1154: Chapter 1156: Lord of Hell_1 Chapter 1154: Chapter 1156: Lord of Hell_1 As the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation condensed in an instant, a smile appeared at the corner of Song Jian’s mouth. Even a Sovereign-level boss couldn’t break free from the fully-formed Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation, let alone these Abyss players in their sixties. The moment the Sword Formation manifested, the death of these five Abyss players was sealed!

To destroy the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation, one must demolish the Spirit Swords with the utmost speed before the formation takes shape. Once the number of Spirit Swords falls below a third, the formation can no longer be sustained, and the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation could not be conjured thereafter.

That might be considered the only weakness of the Thousand Swords Art, but alas, with the current strength of the players, even if they knew this weakness, it would be impossible for them to destroy the Spirit Swords in such a short amount of time.

The previous Sigh Wall skill had, at most, destroyed a hundred and ten Spirit Swords before its defense was breached. To fully withstand this attack, all five Abyss players would have needed to possess and execute similar skills.

As for the Chaos Light Curtain on the surface of the five Abyss players’ bodies, the moment the Karmic Fire Red Lotus Sword Formation arose, this curse-like defensive curtain might as well have been non-existent.

In the control room, there was a “crack” of shattering, as Manager Mar’s glass cup was crushed into dust in his hand. His face turned ashen, his dark aura roiling uncontrollably, and a phantom Great Demon of the Abyss emerged behind him, emitting a silent roar toward the monitors.

“I want him dead!” Manager Mar let out a low growl, but in the next instant, his body suddenly stiffened. The swirling black Abyssal energy, as if encountering something terrifying, rapidly retracted back into his body.

“Mar, you have found a very interesting human soul!” A grand voice resonated throughout the control room. Everyone inside immediately kneeled on one knee, bowing their heads low.

“Master, I am deeply sorry…” Manager Mar spoke with a face full of terror, trembling all over, with cold sweat incessantly breaking out.

That voice was an unstoppable presence for him; in front of it, Mar was less than an ant, and if the other party wished, they could have Mar’s soul roast in the flames of Hell for ten thousand years.

“You’ve found this soul, yet you lack the power to claim it, which disappoints me greatly,” the voice continued.

At the word “disappointment,” Manager Mar’s body violently shook like a sieve, seemingly drained of all strength, ready to collapse to the ground at any moment.

Behind him, Fox’s eyes narrowed, a smile unconsciously creeping across his lips. Although there had been a small hiccup in the process, wasn’t the current situation precisely what he had hoped for?

However, in the next moment, it was Fox’s turn for his face to twist into an ugly expression, while Manager Mar’s face showed a hint of relief, as if he had narrowly escaped a calamity.

The grand voice continued in the control room: “Mar, you must obtain this soul, by any means necessary, no matter where. If you can present this human soul to me, then you will be granted the complete Demon Bloodline of Abyssal Hell, and at that time, you will become a true Lord of Abyssal Hell!”

It must be known that every Lord of Abyssal Hell is a noble. If Mar could truly ascend from being a mere manager to a Lord of Abyssal Hell, it would be like sky-rocketing to the heavens, a reward that everyone hopes for but cannot obtain!

“Master, I will definitely follow your instructions and dedicate this human’s soul to you!” Mar’s face showed a fanatic expression.

The crowd kneeled on the ground for a long time, but the voice never appeared again. A quarter of an hour later, everyone stood up, and the looks they directed at Manager Mar were filled with envy and jealousy as well as a touch of flattery.

“Manager Mar, what do you think we should do next?” a man in the surveillance room asked respectfully.

Mar could clearly feel the change in how people treated him, with much more respect than before. Even as their direct superior, he was not accustomed to such reverence on a regular day.

“Hmph, next, we naturally put all our efforts into killing this human left. Is there even a need to ask?” Mar scoffed, then began to give orders, “Have the Abyssal Destroyers and the Stranglers prepare for battle, and announce a reward among the other demonic beings of the manor. Whoever can kill this human will be granted freedom in the East Sea Mirage!”

“In addition, invite the Great Demon Dumar to join the battle. I promise that once we kill this human male and secure his soul, becoming the lord of the Abyssal Hell, I will grant his family the title of knight and bestow upon them a manor of five hundred acres as their fiefdom!”

At this moment, Mar bore an arrogant expression, as if he were already a lord of the Abyssal Hell.

Fox’s brow furrowed, and he couldn’t help but say, “Sir, do you mean to violate the rules set by Flame Manor itself and forcibly kill this human right in front of us?”

“Indeed, Fox, can’t you see that compared to a manor, being a lord of the Abyssal Hell is far more consequential?” Mar glared coldly at Fox as he uttered a dismissive snort.

Seeing a few others also showing signs of hesitation, Mar immediately said, “Once I become the lord of the Source of Life Hell, all of you will become my staff and vassals, and each of you will have the chance to acquire the genuine Demon Bloodline!”

Upon hearing Mar’s words, those who had been hesitant quickly sided with Mar, as his will was supreme. It was known that almost everyone present possessed only a trace of the Abyssal Demon lineage; obtaining a complete Demon Bloodline and becoming a true Abyssal Demon was what they had always desired.

Most importantly, becoming a vassal to a lord of the Abyssal Hell would be an enormous honor for their mixed-blood families.

Seeing that everyone had sided with Mar, Fox sighed inwardly, realizing he could not contend with the situation. His plans had been going well, but with just a small bait from the master, they were thoroughly disrupted. At that moment, alongside despair, Fox also felt a strong sense of unwillingness.

Gazing at the Karmic Fire Red Lotus burning on the surveillance screen, and the five Abyssal players struggling painfully within the Sword Formation, Fox’s face darkened and his eyes flickered. Eventually, his gaze settled on Song Jian, focusing on the figure holding the Sky-breaking Sword on the screen. A smile involuntarily crept onto the corners of Fox’s mouth.
