Chapter 172 Ambush
The tactical nuclear bombs Roy saw through the Demon Eye were the kind that launched from vehicles. They were not too big, so their yield was probably relatively small. It was unknown if it was because the humans did not know the activation codes or because they were not ready to perish together with the demons, these tactical nuclear bombs were stored in the armory and not taken out.
However, no matter how small the yield was, they were still nuclear weapons. Roy still clearly remembered the scene when humans launched nuclear attacks against angels and demons. He knew that these nuclear weapons could even kill high-rank demons. Now that he saw them, he naturally did not plan to let them go and wanted to take these nuclear bombs for himself.
This thing should be very useful to deal with the Seven Deadly Sins, right? Roy thought...
After spending some time, Roy and Julia entered the city’s underground hub. In the narrow underground space, Roy’s tall body caused him a lot of trouble, so he could only expand the passage through violent destruction many times.
Such big moves naturally attracted the attention of the survivors in the bunker. There was complete industrial equipment in this underground bunker, so there was still electricity supply. When the survivors saw Roy and Julia walking toward the bunker through the surveillance system, they inevitably panicked.
Even though the humans in this world did not know much about the societal structure of demons, they could tell at a glance that Roy was not an ordinary demon from his appearance. His tall body, two pairs of demon wings behind him, and domineering black armor showed how powerful this demon was, not to mention the rare fallen angel beside him.
The reason why the humans in the bunker were still able to persevere was that only low-level demons were attacking them. These low-level demons had no organized actions and were all acting independently, so the pressure on the survivors was not too much. But if this clearly powerful demon came, would the situation change? Would this powerful demon organize the low-level demons, break through the bunker in one fell swoop, and then massacre them?
This speculation seemed to gradually be confirmed because, through the surveillance cameras, they saw some low-level demons who encountered him being very respectful as they made way for him. After he walked forward, the low-level demons would follow behind him. In less than half an hour, hundreds of low-level demons gathered behind this powerful demon and followed him.
Upon seeing this scene, the panicked survivors were almost in despair before Roy even reached the bunker...
However, how could they know that Roy’s target was not them at all? These low-level demons were only following him out of respect for the superior.
However, Julia secretly told him that these low-level demons had most likely already surrendered to the Destroyer!
It was not that Julia felt the mark or aura of the Destroyer on these low-level demons, but purely based on her intuition. After the battle between Samael and the Destroyer, it could be said that 80% of the demons in this world had already changed sides. Julia did not think that they would be lucky enough to encounter the remaining loyalists to Samael.
Roy did not care. In any case, to him, it was all the same regardless of who these low-level demons submitted to. Ever since he roughly figured out what these demon kings were thinking, Roy understood that this kind of internal camp change was probably not a betrayal in the eyes of the big shots. The true betrayal of demons was either damaging the interests of their bosses, like the illusion demon César, or directly betraying their people, like the Dark Knight Sparda that Julia had mentioned.
Only these actions could be regarded as betrayal. Otherwise, this kind where a big shot lost his ability to command, so the demons under him followed the orders of another big shot was not considered true betrayal at all.
On the contrary, Julia’s diehard loyalty to Samael was completely unnecessary in Roy’s view.
Fortunately, Julia seemed to have gotten over it through his persuasion, so she did not reject these low-level demons of the Destroyer faction and did not fight them.
This underground bunker could be said to be a city built underground. The paths were intricate and complex, and the scenes observed by the Demon Eye did not show the route in detail. Now that Roy had these low-level demons, it saved him a lot of effort. After finding a few demons who were familiar with the route to lead the way, Roy and Julia began to quickly approach the central area.
His target was the armory, but the survivors did not know. After seeing Roy lead a large number of demons toward the central area, the survivors felt that their guess was being increasingly confirmed. This powerful demon was coming for them.
Therefore, before arriving, Roy and the others encountered an attack from the human survivors.
This wave of human soldiers attacking them was like a suicide squad. They knew that it might be a wasted effort, but in order to stop Roy, they still launched a suicide attack on Roy and the others!
Relying on their familiarity with the terrain, they went around the areas where the demons concentrated, came to the route that Roy and the others had to pass through, and set up booby traps.
Caught off guard, the low-level demons leading the way stepped on these booby traps and exploded into pieces!
Then the soldiers emerged from their hiding spots, loaded their machine guns and rocket launchers, and attacked!
Roy did not expect these human soldiers to take the initiative to attack him, but it was futile. Seeing dozens of rockets flying toward him, Roy did not even move and let them bombard him.
In the end, Roy was still standing intact after the violent explosion. The Cold Winter Armor blocked all the impact of the explosion, and the armor did not even have the slightest damage...
With a wave of his hand, Roy dispersed the smoke in front of him. The pungent smell of gunpowder made him feel a little uncomfortable. As a result, the low-level demons behind him regarded this action as a signal to fight. They screamed and rushed excitedly toward the ambushing human soldiers, intending to tear their bodies apart and snatch their souls.
“Retreat! Quickly retreat!”
Seeing that the target of their attack was not the slightest bit injured, the human soldiers were terrified. But they still kept their mission in mind. Since the attack had not been effective, they would use their lives to lure this demon away!
The human soldiers got on their motorcycles and quickly withdrew according to their planned route. As they retreated, they also fired at the low-level demons chasing behind them. Weapons such as rocket launchers could cause large damage to low-rank demons, so they had eliminated many demons while escaping. However, even if they were low-level demons, their speed was not something that the motorcycles could shake off. The demons chased closely behind these human soldiers, and the distance between them began shrinking
What made the soldiers even more depressed was the report from the control room in their earpieces. The powerful demon did not follow them but instead found another demon to lead the way and continued toward the central area.
The survivors realized that the demon seemed to have seen through their goal...
Seeing that the demons were about to catch up, the fleeing soldiers gritted their teeth. Just as they were about to stake everything on fighting the demons, a sudden change occurred!
A loud whistling sound came, and an enormous black shadow flew through the air. With unstoppable momentum, it slammed into the demons behind. In an instant, the demons hit by the black shadow were immediately torn asunder, and before they could even scream, they were killed!
The human survivors were stunned. They saw the black shadow that suddenly smashed into the demons was a huge and heavy war hammer!
This war hammer flew straight, stirring up a storm of blood among the demons along the way. As countless amounts of purple blood splattered through the air, the war hammer smashed open a straight passage and hit a wall on one side, creating a large hole on the wall and continuing to fly.
On the other side, Roy, who had just walked a few steps, suddenly heard a loud noise, and the thick wall on his left suddenly exploded!
With a bang, a hammer that was as tall as Julia slammed down in front of him, creating a big pit in the ground...
Looking at the huge war hammer, Roy finally stopped...
