Chereads / During the Dark ages: First Holy War / Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Experiments

Chapter 18 - Chapter 18 Experiments

Mephistopheles divided seven of the islands that composed the Red Isles into Zones, ranging from zone 1 to zone 7. Each zone had monsters and beasts on the same tier, with zone 1 hosting tier 1 monsters and beasts, zone 2 hosting tier 2 monsters and beasts, zone 3 hosting tier 3 monsters and beasts, etc. Each zone is heavily enchanted with demonic runes and rituals, but their functions are very simple and have two main purpose. First, is to prevent monsters and beasts from leaving their zones and entering others or the sea and the second purpose is to teleport monsters to the next zone after they evolve, but this function hasn't been used since the monsters weren't able to evolve. Mephistopheles theorized that it was because they were too unstable or because chaos hasn't accepted them, either way, he needed to fix this issue and he hoped these undead thralls can help him with that.

Mephistopheles also enchanted the 7th ring, the ring where Asmodious, Beelzebub, Mammon and King Amon were on, the same way. They had seven zones and comprised of powerful barriers that most tier 7 creatures can't destroy, he also wishes to study the humans brought into the realm to see how they differ from the native demons of underworld. He also had special plans for Lucifer and the other angels. The coordinates of the portals that the four groups used to come to the underworld were specifically placed outside of the barriers so that the humans could adjust a bit before they were plunged into the horrors of the underworld. How nice of him.

*****************************************

On Asmodious' side, she was looking at her hand intently while using [Aura Vision] to look at her and her subordinates aura, she could see the abundant sea of red aura attacking her anf her subordinates mostly golden aura. She had fired off an attack made of pure holy energy with the smallest possible amount of holy energy she could use. The attack didn't even manage to hit it's target as it was slowly stripped apart and consumed until nothing was left.

'Well this is a head scratcher, our holy energy is severely weakened here and I have no idea what will happen if we run out of HP. Coincidentally, the portal that brought us here has disappeared and I can't contact lord Lucifer so he can create another one. That leaves us with one option, and it is not a good one.' Asmodious mentally groaned, she's having the worst headache she's ever had in the last 200 hundred years.

"Listen everyone, we are a long way from home and this realm is weird as fuck and we can't go home. The only thing we can do is advance forward and try not to die. I'm sure you have noticed that your aura is being affected by this strange mist and I wouldn't blame you if you're scared, but we can't stay here and die. So, if you encounter an enemy, try not to use your holy energy too much and mainly use physical attacks. Let's go." Asmodious said and her subordinates roared loudly as she led them towards a massive red barrier.

Mammon and her group had successfully evolved into tier 3s and due to all of them being cultivators, they didn't have the same situation as Beelzebub.

'I can work with this.' Mammon though as she took out a mirror from her storage ring and looked over her appearance. Unlike Beelzebub, she had the time to immediately look over her appearance and see how she has changed compared to before, she still had her black hair and devious golden yellow eyes, but now she was about half her old size and had pointed ears with pale skin.

'Now the only problem is whether these guys will stay loyal to me or not.' Mammon thought and her eyes narrowed, she didn't need to read her subordinates race description to know that they were stronger than her. She noticed that non of her subordinates were Leprechauns like her, which was a bit of a relief, but the problem still remained, they could easily killed her if she isn't careful and she needed to fix that...quickly.

"I'm curious what kind of skills did you get." Mammon went over to one of her subordinates and asked in a soft voice, which sounded childish. Her subordinate looked down at her and blinked his eyes a few times.

"P-princess?" The man said in an unsure voice, he was tall, muscular and had two short tusk like fangs sticking out of his lower jaw.

"Yes." Mammon replied, not really blaming him for his confusion and so she continued.

"I was wondering what kind of skills you had because I have a really weird one and I need your help testing it. Pretty please." Mammon said with a cute smile.

"O-of course princess, anything you want." The man replied and Mammons smile widened
