Chapter 76 The Devil's Dinner

Ka lay flat on the ground, feeling itchy and painful. He wished he could tear himself apart right there and then to get rid of this painful torture.
Then, he saw the crimson waves of fire that spread in an instant and heard the deafening explosion. He thought that this last moment would be long, and would allow him to recall all the beautiful scenes when his wife and children were by his side. He thought that he would feel relieved because he no longer had to endure this inhuman torture, but at that moment, he still felt great fear and a strong desire to survive in his heart. Before the so-called memories could flash through his mind, his mind was filled with severe pain and he immediately fell into deep darkness.
Boom!
The restaurant's windows suddenly shattered and flew away, accompanied by countless bricks and rubble and obvious tongues of flame that rolled outward.
The guards who happened to be patrolling this location were immediately knocked over, and those who were lucky enough not to be hit also had buzzing in their ears, their bodies swayed, and they either tilted or fell. They saw that most of the outer wall of the restaurant had collapsed, and they saw that the flames seemed to be floating in the air.
The people on the entire street and the police in charge of the surrounding areas heard the loud noise at the same time, and they were confused and frightened for a moment.
In the restaurant, Klein, wearing black armor and a black crown, stood there, bathing in the red flames and enjoying the strong shock waves, unmoved. The black air around him was melted a lot, and his spirit body itself was also damaged to a certain extent, but not seriously.
In the area opposite the fireplace, Heras, who was very close to the fire, was directly engulfed by the flames behind him. Even though he had a strong body and a strong physique, and the magical iron-black glove, he was now covered in blood and flesh, without a single piece of intact skin. He was charred and occasionally twitched like a convulsion. After inhaling a large amount of suspended flames, he curled up and died in pain.
As a result, all the Beyonders in the restaurant were wiped out.
Klein prepared to go to the underground area. He remembered that there was a Beyonder guarding the dungeon there with heavy weapons.
But at this moment, there was a burst of gunfire outside.
Klein raised his eyebrows in surprise and immediately disappeared into the darkness, floating high up like confetti in a hurricane, floating out of the hall.
Half a minute later, the remaining half of the door was kicked away by someone.
He stood on a high place and looked down. The fire in the hall outside had just been burned for a moment, and the fire had become much smaller. Another wave of disaster was brewing through the wooden stairs. However, because the main body of the explosion was limited by the extraordinary ability of "confinement", the aftermath did not rush outside. And the person who came in from the outside space could not break in. If he was not the same "Judge" as Heras, he should be a "lawyer" who distorted the law and controlled chaos.

Is that Miss Maria? She's been hiding outside. It seems my sudden action has disrupted her plans...
Klein stood far away on a spire and saw Maria rushing into the Kapin Villa with a machine gun. He was not surprised. But just as he was about to leave, he saw Maria check the situation in the dungeon and open the door. She came directly to the restaurant without taking a detour and seemed to be looking for something. Then she dug something out from a corner. Klein didn't see it clearly, but he saw that the thing had the same spiritual brilliance as other Beyonders... It was very likely Mr. A. Was he dead and was recycled, or was he not dead and was discovered by Maria?
Then, he saw Maria kneeling on one knee and beginning to pray. At this distance, he naturally could not hear any sound, nor could he see her lips clearly, so he had no idea which god the principal of this charity school was praying to.
Klein planned to continue to see what would happen. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his spine, and a chill rushed straight to his brain. Without thinking, he immediately disappeared from the top of the tower.
Before he completely disappeared, a huge claw that seemed to appear out of nowhere in the night sky fell from the sky and grabbed the spire with a bang. The stone bricks that were dozens of centimeters thick were easily crushed into gravel and rubble like plasticine. The sharp claws covered with scales and bone spurs were almost as tall as Klein, reflecting the dark light.
The giant claws released the completely destroyed spire and reached for the air where Klein was standing, as if they had eyes. Klein's scalp exploded, and he ended the ceremony immediately and returned to the gray fog.
His spirit body narrowly avoided the claws, and the place where it was scratched by the bone spur instantly turned a poisonous black color, accompanied by a sharp pain like a red-hot iron. Klein disappeared smoothly.
The pitch-black claws grabbed nothing again.
A light door opened, and Edward appeared on the damaged tower. He looked in the direction where Klein disappeared, and twisted the sand in his right hand. Then he patted his palm clean, lowered his head, and saw Maria, who rushed to the dungeon to evacuate the victims after receiving a response, and saw Capin with corpses all over the ground and a pool of rotten meat, and also saw Mr. A who was half dead.
"…Maria sought help from Sherlock Moriarty, but the helper who came was… the Black Emperor?"
"At first glance, the status seems high, but in fact, the strength is very weak. If it is a medium-high sequence "lawyer" path, at least one or two distortions or grafting will be used to help oneself escape, although it cannot escape. "
"The way he escaped was also problematic. There was no reaction from the door opening. He disappeared out of thin air... and my angelic status only sensed a little bit of subtle fluctuations and was unable to perceive it accurately."
"It proves that his methods are not my adjacent methods."
"secret?"
"There is indeed someone around me who is being watched by the Goddess of Night." Edward's voice was filled with some ambiguity. "Could this Black Emperor card be Klein Moretti?"

Edward fell to the ground, surrounded by flames. The demon confused the two bishops who came to investigate and asked them to circle around for a few minutes. This was their meal time and no one could disturb them.
Kapin was dead, dead for a short while, and the devil caught his soul and used it as an appetizer. The sky above this villa was filled with dark sins and blood debts, which was exactly the environment the devil liked best.
Edward ceremoniously took out a landline telephone model from the collection cabinet, found a table that was missing a leg but still standing, and put it down. Then he asked the resentment in the air: "Who do you want to accuse first?"
As if he had received an answer, Edward listened for two seconds, picked up the phone, and without dialing, he spoke directly into the receiver: "Hello, hello - it's connected. Is this the deputy director of the Backlund East District Police Department? Hello, you have been accused by wronged souls of forcing women, being involved in vicious gang transactions, kidnapping children, and secretly engaging in slave trading... etc. In summary, all these charges are established. I think you should die."
"Who are you?! Who sent you?!" Without a telephone line or a communication network connected, a voice actually came from the receiver, "Are you a cultist or are you intentionally blackmailing? Regardless, you are threatening the police! You are the one who should be arrested!"
"I'm not asking you, human, I'm asking you to die." He asked back in confusion, "Why is the food talking?"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sound of something heavy falling to the ground. Edward hung up the phone and made a chewing motion.
He glanced at the sky, listened for two seconds, and picked up the receiver again while eating: "Hello, I think you are Mr. Vadra, a member of the House of Commons. You are accused of large-scale human trafficking, pornographic industry and forcing women, as well as murdering political opponents, slave trading and dozens of other crimes. Please die."
The ability of the Whisperer took effect very quickly, and the dinner list had just reached the second one. In order to pursue efficiency and taste, Edward simply let them die directly, and was too lazy to debate one by one. "Actually, the environment here is really good. If possible, I would rather use this as a permanent dining table." Edward thought for a while, and then smiled, "But there are souls of great sins everywhere, I can't eat them all, why should I care about a small human trafficker?"
"You should be the Baron that Kapin mentioned..."
"Dear Senator..."
The devil was having a leisurely dinner, using words as a knife and fork to cut the souls on the plate. He enjoyed putting sins into his mouth, leaving black blood on the plate and around his mouth. The heavy black air hovering in the sky gradually became thinner and more erratic, although in the eyes of almost everyone, this dark cloud that was so dark that blood could be squeezed out with a slight squeeze did not exist from the beginning.
"Sir Luke, I'm sorry, you are a viscount." At the end of the dinner, the almost sated demon said to the food on the other end of the phone in a friendly and casual tone, as if chatting at the table, "Sir Viscount, why are you willing to participate in these dirty businesses? Aren't you afraid of being contaminated by sin and judged by God and the law?"
"Extraordinary?" The voice on the other side was different from before. It was sophisticated and calm, even a little disdainful. "You are a cultist, don't slander me. I am pious to God and loyal to the king. I have invested a lot of money in God and built churches to dedicate my faith. I have already obtained a posthumous pardon and can go to the ever-magnificent Storm Sea. Why can't I pursue happiness in my life?"
"What can your God promise you?"
"..." Edward laughed and said in a joking tone, "I promise desolation and pain, destruction and rebirth."
"Humph, the evil god I've never heard of is really just a threat that is not worth mentioning." The Viscount sneered and belittled mercilessly, "You chose the wrong person to threaten. I am now traveling with the Bishop of the Storm Church. If you reveal your identity immediately, you still have a chance of survival!"
Edward couldn't help but sigh after hearing this: "I have always been curious about what the ancient sun god was thinking and why the concept of "hell" was not widely spread."
"Or why is hell only associated with the underworld, and not the place of eternal life and torture after death as described in the legends of the old days?"
"Cultist, don't even think about spreading your ideas. You'd better surrender right now..."
"In the past, the legend of hell could not stop humans from doing evil. I am so sorry that you have no place to suffer, atone for your sins, and be tortured. As a result, you foolish people who have committed many evil deeds are confident that you can go to the kingdom of God and enjoy eternity through faith and dedication!"
The demon sighed: "Of course, you won't have that chance, you will be eaten by me directly. Thank you for your speech before the meal, Lord Viscount Luke. Since you think the Bishop of Storm can protect you, let's die together."

Maria came once to report to Him about the evacuation of the crowd, and then ran to the East District with the children, big and small.
Edward wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his thumb, looked up, and saw the moonlight in the sky penetrate the dark clouds. There were only 30 seconds left in the five minutes, and the demigods would be here soon. He picked up the phone for the last time.
"Hello, Lord Viscount Stratford—"
Suddenly, He pressed the receiver hard on the landline, then picked up the landline and threw it far away. The twisted laws and judgments exploded instantly, swallowing up the telephone model like a black hole, and then the twisted power was vented here unscrupulously, violently tearing up the grass, trees, marble floors, walls, concrete domes, and the men of Kapin who were not yet dead and the bodies on the ground, causing everything to gather at the center of the landline, collapsing into a huge stone ball.
In an instant, Kapin's mansion and the entire land where it was located disappeared, and the flat ground turned into a huge basin. Under the moonlight, in the center of the basin stood a huge stone ball more than ten meters high, formed by the crushing of broken limbs and stones by a huge force majeure.
Blood was oozing out of the surface of the stone ball very slowly.
At this time, the demigods finally arrived. A silver-white branch-shaped lightning tore through the sky. The Storm Archbishop, the "Singer of God" Ace Snake, and a man with golden eyes and a straight suit also appeared. When the two saw the huge stone ball standing on the ground, they fell silent at the same time and almost forgot to breathe.
…………
Edward appeared in the square of Maria's charity school. He left the spirit world and squinted his eyes to look in the direction of the ruins of Kapin's mansion. The torn wounds on his face and the mess of clothes were restored one after another. He was thoughtful and his expression was a little complicated. Maria in the teaching building saw him from the window and hurried downstairs to report.
“My luck is really good…” He was inexplicably happy. “At least two people acted at the same time. Angel-level distortion and judgment, although it was only a warning, well, it was still quite intimidating.”
"We actually caught someone related to the Black Emperor. Did the phone call just now go directly to the King of Loen?"
At this time, Maria also ran to Him. Edward raised his hand, preemptively stopped the praise, polite words and reports, and spoke directly: "Due to some accidents, Kapin's mansion was completely destroyed, and no clues will be left, so you and your men don't have to worry about being tracked down. You have exceeded my requirements, and I am very satisfied with the hospitality tonight. So in addition to the reward, you can also make a wish."
"My wish..."
Maria's train of thought was interrupted, but she immediately thought of a request: "Your Highness Vaughn, I beg you to save one of my compatriots. He is imprisoned in the basement of the Holy Wind Cathedral and is our only doctor."
"Good." Edward turned his head and looked in the direction of the Holy Wind Cathedral. "You are lucky. The archbishop is not here."
Then Edward opened the door and left in front of Maria. Ten seconds later, the ground suddenly shook again, and chaotic shouts came from the direction of Holy Wind Cathedral, such as "Fire!" "Hurry up and put out the fire!" "The prisoner escaped!" At the same time, the door opened in front of Maria again. Edward was holding a ragged, listless and frightened man in his hand. Although he was much thinner, Maria could tell at a glance that this was Dr. Blake who had been captured and tortured for a long time!
"Thank you, thank you!" Maria was overjoyed. Seeing Edward throwing the man over, she hurried forward to hold him and kept thanking him.
Edward threw something over casually, and Maria caught it with one hand, and found that it was a characteristic of Sequence 5 "Chaos Mentor"!
"You never put forward any conditions to me. I heard your heart calling for strength, so the reward should be the opportunity for promotion." The devil turned and left. Before leaving, he said something lightly, like a bucket of cold water poured over Maria's head, completely extinguishing her joy:
"Try to survive, the war is about to begin."
