Chapter 271: Abyssal Blood War (Part 4) - Wade Wilson's Crazy Operation: Nuclear Blast
Amidst the rustling of feathers and the vibration of scales, there were occasional rumbling sounds like muffled thunder.
These were the flames generated by the self-destruction of Iron Soldiers whose ammunition was depleted and whose Arc Reactors had reached their Energy Alert Threshold. The firelight engulfed Winged Demons within a radius of several hundred meters, while the strong shockwave also shattered the dark clouds above the Volcano Crater.
The moonlight of the Blood Moon shone on the Volcano Summit, unobstructed by volcanic ash, drawing the attention of many high-grade Demons to this inconspicuous corner of the blood-red battlefield.
"Humans! To think they'd appear in the Fifteenth Abyss! Do mere humanity also want to seize the Authority of the Fifteenth Abyss?!"
The Abyssal Demon Overseer, following the radiance of the Blood Moon, noticed Wolverine Logan on the Volcano Summit, who was almost swallowed by the Demon Army. The pair of large, scale-covered leather wings on his back couldn't help but vibrate.
Unlike ordinary low-grade Demons who covet human souls and flesh and blood, pure-blooded upper Abyssal Demons like him clearly knew the terror of humanity's top powerful ones.
In the long history of the Abyss World, there were many Human Black Wizards who rose to power, gained the Authority of the Abyss World, and became Hell Lords.
Moreover, these Black Wizards who became Hell Lords were formidable characters even within the nine hundred and ninety-nine Layers of Hell.
Among them, the most famous were the Ancient Evil God Chthon and the Dimensional Evil God Dormammu.
Seeing a Human suddenly appear in this Abyssal Blood War, the Abyssal Demon Overseer subconsciously thought it was another Human Black Wizard causing trouble.
The Demon Overseer was very clear that the Big Boss he served greatly valued Mephisto's Territory and the Authority he once controlled.
After all, Mephisto was once one of the Seven Lords of Hell across countless Dimensions, alongside his master.
If the Big Boss could truly grasp Mephisto's Authority, perhaps he could suppress the other Hell-Lords and leap to become the King of the Hell Dimension.
Now that these Humans had appeared here, it wouldn't allow anyone to disrupt its master's Plan.
"I want his Soul!" (Abyssal Language). As the Abyssal Demon ordered, moonlight from the Blood Moon above his head shone down, and a Hundred-Armed Giant, over three hundred feet tall, appeared on the battlefield.
This big guy had fifty heads and one hundred arms. Its entire body was covered in deathly white skin dotted with large and small festering boils. Strange, half-open, half-closed eyeballs dotted the places where these boils oozed yellow fluid.
He charged towards the Volcano where Wolverine Logan was located, crashing through everything. Along the way, any Demon that blocked his path was either trampled into paste or crushed into pulp by him.
"It's the Hundred-Armed Giant Gogus," someone exclaimed. "I saw pictures of him in Asgard's Library. He is the son of Gaea, the Mother of Earth, and Uranus from the Olympian Pantheon. But he should have died at the hands of the Titan Gods long ago! How could he appear in Hell?"
The crowd guarding the Mirror of Circular Light also saw this Hundred-Armed Giant charging straight towards the Volcano Summit. He was like a giant road roller, directly flattening a path of blood and mud on the Abyssal Blood War battlefield.
Compared to the Hundred-Armed Giant sent by Beelzebub's side, the Demons sent by the Blood Hell Abyss and Demonic Dragon Abyss, ruled by the Blood God, paled in comparison.
The Blood Hell Abyss directly sent out a massive amount of Vampire Legions. The Vampire Legions, transformed into Bats, formed dark clouds so vast they obscured the sky. The Demonic Dragon Legion's several thousand Demonic Dragons, tens of thousands of Demonic Wyverns, and hundreds of thousands of Flying Dragons were like a drop in the ocean compared to the number of these Vampires.
"This Hundred-Armed Giant is undead," Thor exclaimed. "Damn it, these Hell Creatures dug up Gogus's corpse! They refined him into an undead. They desecrated the corpse of a Warrior!"
Thor watched as the Hundred-Armed Giant's fifty heads spewed out thick, pale gas. The thousands of eyeballs on its body opened, and the Demons that came into contact with its eyeballs all transformed into undead creatures.
Thor finally understood what this group of Demons had done.
"The graveyard of the Olympian Pantheon?" Tang Song asked, looking at the angry Thor with some curiosity. "I remember in Greek Mythology, after a Demigod dies, their soul goes to the Underworld. The ruler of the Underworld is Hades! Don't these Hell Demons care about him?"
In the Marvel World, the Olympian Pantheon doesn't have many appearances.
The only one Boss Tang was familiar with was Wonder Woman, who was a pillar of the neighboring DC World.
Thor shook his head. "The Olympian Pantheon left Midgard a long time ago," he said. "Gogus was a powerful one of my grandfather's generation. According to legend, the Hundred-Armed Giants were three individuals: Briareus, Gogus, and Cottus. They were all sons of Gaea and Uranus. However, according to the records in Asgard, they died a long time ago!"
"Can Gods also die?" Gu Zi Yun asked, looking at the Demons in the Mirror of Circular Light. Seeing those "cute" Demons in the Mirror of Circular Light, she felt a strong desire for destruction, a desire to tear these guys apart.
Unfortunately, Boss Tang wouldn't let her go to Hell. Facing Uncle's strong authority, she could only sullenly cut the steak in front of her. Hearing Thor's words, she asked with some mockery.
Thor looked at the enslaved Hundred-Armed Giant in the Mirror of Circular Light. Thinking of a powerful Warrior in life, whose corpse was reduced to being toyed with by a group of Demons after death, he wished he could immediately rush into Hell and let that group of Demons witness the power of his Stormbreaker.
Hearing Gu Zi Yun's question, he shook his head. "Nothing in the world is eternal," he said. "Just like us Aesir, our normal lifespan is five thousand years.
Compared to you Humans, we are undoubtedly a long-lived species. Unfortunately, even my Father, the great King Odin, will have a day when Ragnarök arrives!"
...…
Low-grade Demons coveted human flesh, blood, and souls, while high-grade Demons, meanwhile, acted according to the orders of several Demon Overseers.
At this moment, that inconspicuous Volcano, as the gaze of several Demon Overseers shifted, had unknowingly become the center of the Abyssal Blood War battlefield.
As countless Demons surged forward, Wolverine Logan's pressure instantly increased by hundreds or thousands of times.
Those Golden Warriors, claimed to be indestructible, had very sturdy bodies, and their greatswords carved with sharp runes were very sharp.
Unfortunately, the number of these Demons was simply too great. The tide-like Demons completely filled the Space around the Golden Warriors.
It was ten times more crowded than the space on a rush hour bus…
Every time these Golden Golems swung a sword, the next moment, even the Space to swing their arms was filled with the flesh, blood, corpses, and bones of the surrounding Demons.
In the sky, the muffled thunder gradually subsided, only occasionally sounding once or twice. That was because the Iron Soldiers responsible for blocking the sky were gradually being depleted.
Logan had just released the last Metal Storm from the Five Yin Pouch. His hand had just pressed the switch.
A Winged Demon descended from the sky. Its sharp, scale-covered, hooked claws scratched and tore his scalp!
"Chh! Ding!"
The Winged Demon looked at its bent claws. Before it could react to why this Human's skull was harder than steel.
A katana swung past, directly splitting it in half.
The sharp katana was like cutting through a block of tofu, so smooth that Deadpool almost continued the cut downwards, splitting Logan's forehead.
"Hey, be careful, you guy!"
Logan's scalp felt cold. He glared fiercely at Deadpool. Using the Electronic Chemical Gas Ignition Technology, the Metal Storm fired sixteen thousand Enchanted Silver Pellets within one second, pouring out a Metal Torrent and instantly clearing a large open space in front of the two of them.
Deadpool swung his Twin Blades, the Ten Thousand Spirits Immortal Slaying Blade, which had absorbed the souls of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine normal Demons and used a high-grade Demon as the main soul.
The blade emitted a misty, grey-black Blade Qi. Within the Saber Light, countless ferocious Demon phantoms could be faintly seen flickering, emitting painful roars.
The Blade Qi slashed out nearly a hundred meters. The Demons struck by the two streams of Blade Qi were pounced upon by the residual souls of their former kin within the Saber Light, instantly turning into skeletal remains that could be easily shattered with a light touch of the hand.
The Twin Blades in Deadpool's hands spun, actually clearing out an open space in the surging tide of climbing Demons.
"These blades are good, I should have gotten two myself!" Logan kicked the Metal Storm, which had lasted less than two minutes before depleting, down the mountain. After it smashed and killed two Scythe Demons, he looked at the Adamantium Claws extended from between his fingers and glanced enviously at the Twin Blades in Deadpool's hands.
"Don't even think about it, these two Blades are indeed good," Deadpool said. "But those Vampires in the Weapon Manufacturing Department, the price they quoted was astronomical. They charged me two hundred million US Dollars for the two Blades. And they still said it was for experimenting with the Twin Blades' characteristics, giving me a seventy percent discount, ."
Deadpool shattered a Lizard Demon with one slash, while continuously sending out a stream of complaints towards the guys in the Weapon Manufacturing Department, led by Ivan Vanko.
At Lake Heart Island Manor, Ivan Vanko, sitting at the long dining table, directly bent the silver fork in his hand into a clamp.
A sinister smile appeared on his face that made Ant-Man Scott beside him tremble.
"However, those guys in the Weapon Manufacturing Department are researching technology to integrate these magic weapons with the human body," Deadpool continued. "You could give it a try. It's said that Boss provided a new technique called the Seven Killings Blood Transformation Blade...
Imagine if your Adamantium Claws could be like my Blades..."
Logan listened to Deadpool's words, then looked at the Blade Qi swung by the katana in his hand. His heart was somewhat moved.
But he instantly became alert. "Wade Wilson, did you take money from those Researchers in the Weapons Research Department..." he asked.
"Shhh shhh~"
Deadpool directly blew a whistle at a Harpy Demon with eagle wings and a human body in mid-air.
This look of a guilty thief made it clear that this guy definitely received benefits from the Weapons Research Department to coax him into human experimentation.
"Oh right, what did you just do at the Volcano Crater?"
Logan looked at Deadpool, who was completely unbothered, and asked while frantically throwing Enchanted Holy Water Grenades into the piles of Demons.
"Oh, nothing much?" Deadpool replied. "Before coming to Hell, I took a Tactical Nuke from the Weapons Research Department's warehouse. Those * guys, they actually charged me one hundred million US Dollars for a ten-thousand-ton yield Tactical Nuke and said it was the cost price. But luckily I put it on Johnny's tab!"
Deadpool complained repeatedly, sending out his "telegram".
"Nuclear Bomb?!" Logan was startled by Deadpool's words.
"How long until it explodes?"
"Ten,"
"Ten minutes?" Logan said. "We need to leave here as soon as possible. I remember the Weapon Manufacturing Department gave us a batch of Jade Slips that can fly..."
Although during the WWII Period, Logan had experienced the kiss of the Nuclear Bomb named Little Boy in Japan, he didn't want to experience this terrible feeling a second time.
Logan had just dumped out everything in his Five Yin Pouch when he heard Deadpool's next words.
"Nine..."
"What the Fuck!" Logan looked at Deadpool with an idiotic gaze and cursed fiercely.
"Eight..."
After Deadpool successively cut down dozens of Winged Demons, he firmly stuck his two precious katanas behind his back. At the same time, he tied shiny chains around his waist and the knife hilts of the two katanas, to prevent his two Big Guys from leaving him.
"Seven..."
"Six..."
"Five..."
"Jump!" Deadpool suddenly jumped up and grabbed the neck of a diving Harpy.
His hand fiercely grabbed a handful at the Harpy's chest.
Startled, the Harpy immediately flew towards the sky…
Logan, beside him, having no other choice, also grabbed the claws of a winged demon. His Adamantium Claws extended and fiercely stabbed it.
The two pained Demons carried the two of them less than a hundred meters when they were surrounded by more Winged Demons and densely packed Vampires.
Thirty layers inside, thirty layers in the middle, thirty layers outside, the dense, black mass of Demons almost wrapped the two of them into a several-hundred-meter demon ball.
Before these greedy Demons could take a bite of something warm, they heard a barely audible countdown sound.
"Three..."
"Two..."
"One..."
Tang Song, President of the Earth multinational company, Tang Group, and a great philanthropist, had a doubt a few years ago.
Whether Earth's top firearms, Nuclear Weapons, would have any effect against Hell Creatures like Demons.
A Mushroom Cloud rising in the Mirror of Circular Light told Boss Tang the answer.
Under Nuclear Weapons, all beings are equal.
The Nuclear Bomb Explosion directly tore apart the two-thousand-meter-high annular Active Volcano. The firelight of the Nuclear Bomb Explosion and the lava erupting horizontally from the annular Volcano instantly swept across a hundred-mile area.
The densely packed Demons, as numerous as ants, that were originally climbing up the Volcanic Cliff, including:
Hellhounds, Scythe Demons, Fallen Demons, Naga Demons, Winged Demons, Vampires, Gargoyles, Fire Giants, Stone Giants, Headless Horsemen…
Regardless of type or quantity, even the Hundred-Armed Giant that had just reached the Mountainside, the one who once fought alongside Zeus.
Under the tens of millions of degrees high temperature at the center of the Nuclear Blast, these Demons near the Volcano were even more fragile than Underworld Money burned in a ritual fire.
They were directly turned into ash in the blazing flames, in the firelight that was several times hotter than the sun's core temperature.
The tongues of fire from the Nuclear Blast that shot into the sky covered the high altitude for dozens of miles. Those densely packed Winged Demons, Vampires, and Harpies directly turned into pieces of charred remains falling from the sky…
The Nuclear Blast completely detonated this Hell Volcano that was originally flowing gently. The Hell Volcano, entering a berserk mode, completely erupted its lava, accumulated for tens of thousands of years.
Without the obstruction of the rock walls, this Volcano was like a giant lava fountain spraying outwards. The boiling lava sprayed out two or three hundred miles…
Everything around was covered by lava, completely turning into a Lava Sea.
