Custom Made Demon King

Chapter 367 Cataclysm (3)

Chapter 367 Cataclysm (3)

Eeofol was the most barren and worst land in the entire world of Ashan.

In Eeofol, there were a total of sixty-seven volcanoes of various sizes, and most of them were active volcanoes. When the demons wanted to gain a foothold in Ashan, Eeofol was their ideal choice. Especially because they needed to build cities, they detonated many volcanoes, causing the magma to gush out and spread poisonous gas, thereby transforming the environment into one suitable for the demons to stay.

Overall, the entire geology of Eeofol was actually very fragile...

The reason why the demon camp chose Ur-Hekal as their headquarters was that there were six large volcanoes within forty kilometers of the city. These volcanoes erupted all year round, filling this place with the smell of magma and sulfur. Intense heat and poisonous gas continued to permeate here, and the environment here was the closest to the Abyss!

The moment Roy pressed the button, the six volcanoes around Ur-Hekal began to rumble.

Roy had not hesitated to create numerous destruction mushrooms (1. The author decides to change the name of nuclear mushrooms.). Before the alliance army entered Eeofol, he had arranged for people to place them in all the volcanoes in Eeofol, and he created a general control button so that he could detonate these destruction mushrooms with his magic power. A destruction mushroom had a yield of two thousand tons. What kind of concept was it when one exploded? It was an immense force that could flatten a radius of ten kilometers! And what would happen when all these destruction mushrooms exploded in the already boiling volcanoes?

A deafening bang spread throughout the entire battlefield. All of the alliance troops were shocked, and their movements stopped in unison. They did not know where this sound came from. At present, they seemed to be fine, but after hearing the sound, for some reason, they felt a strong sense of unease in their hearts.

“W-what happened?”

“Did the demon lord attack? But I don’t see the light of magic...”

“The direction of the sound seems to be coming from very far away...”

The alliance troops engaged in a flurry of discussions. At this moment, more than a minute had passed since they heard the sound. Just as they were nervous, an alliance soldier was the first to discover that the ground... seemed to be trembling.

Soon after, more and more people felt the ground trembling, which meant that the trembling was rapidly increasing. In just a few seconds, the trembling turned into violent shaking that was comparable to a magnitude 8 earthquake. Many alliance soldiers were panic-stricken and could not stand straight. They fell to the ground, and their entire bodies were dizzy from the shaking.

The warhorses of the Haven knights were frantically neighing. They, who had been domesticated to be obedient, shook off the knights on their backs after a few bumps. Then they broke through the crowd and escaped into the distance. It was not only the warhorses but also the animals that the other races had domesticated to be mounts. The battlefield became chaotic all of a sudden as everyone was in a complete mess.

In the sky, the birds living in Eeofol were flying in large groups and making all kinds of shrill cries as they quickly flew out of Eeofol.

At this moment, the tremors of the ground suddenly subsided. The entire battlefield suddenly became silent, leaving only the cries of birds lingering in the distant sky.

The soldiers of the various races looked at this scene in doubt. The trembling of the ground stopping should be a good thing, but for some reason, they did not feel relieved at all. They only felt that something was suddenly gripping their hearts tightly. In this strange calm, they felt their blood run cold as a terrifying sense of crisis was firmly grabbing them.

“Not... not good! Retreat!” One of the elven heroes was the first to react, but just as he shouted in panic, another deafening roar suddenly came!

This time, the sound was even louder and more terrifying than before. It was as though a frightening thunderclap had directly blasted in their ears. All the alliance soldiers turned deaf, and this instead caused their ears to quiet down, leaving only the ringing in their ears that kept reverberating. In this deaf world, the alliance soldiers were dumbstruck as they stared at the entirely dyed red sky... It was from volcanoes erupting tens of kilometers away. The six volcanoes burst at the same time. Scarlet magma and black smoke soared into the sky, going hundreds of meters into the sky under the tremendous pressure. Countless burning rocks flew in all directions like fireworks. At a speed of more than three hundred kilometers per hour, they streaked across the sky with thick billowing smoke, looking like flowers of destruction.

The dragons and angels flying high in the sky looked farther away. They were horrified to find that not only were the volcanoes around Ur-Hekal erupting, but even farther away, they could see magma flames soaring into the sky. From the east to the west, from the south to the north, they could see red-dyed clouds in every direction.

With the eruption of the volcanoes, a massive earthquake from farther away than before followed closely. Under Eeofol’s charred ground, it seemed as though some terrifying creature was stirring and churning, and the earth was undulating violently.

An enormous crack first appeared on the plain in front of Ur-Hekal. It tore apart the fragile or hard ground along the way and quickly spread forward while continuously diverging into branches. The appearance of this crack brought with it a bottomless crevice, and all the alliance soldiers in its path screamed as the crevice swallowed them.

The crack also spread in the direction of Ur-Hekal. It affected the southwest side, and half of the city sank. “Retreat!!!”

It was unknown which alliance hero burst out with a heart-wrenching cry on the battlefield. This time, the alliance troops, who had just recovered their hearing, heard it clearly. After returning to their senses, they immediately threw down their weapons and ran back without even thinking.

However, under such a massive geological disaster, how could they escape? Moreover, the alliance army was in dense formations during the war because of their advantage in numbers How far could so many people escape in a short time?

Screams and rumbles intertwined and echoed on the battlefield. In less than a minute, the cracked ground devoured more than 200,000 people.

What was even more terrifying was that no matter how far they ran, the ground was constantly cracking around them. This unimaginable earthquake did not just spread around Ur-Hekal, but... it spread throughout Eeofol!

The land creatures running on the ground were facing a catastrophe. Even existences like behemoths and titans were screaming as the earth swallowed them. Only the flying creatures were unaffected and relatively safe.

But... this safety only lasted until a volcanic rock from the eruptions smashed against the head of a dragon...

The volcanic eruptions brought about not only a doomsday-like earthquake but also a vast amount of poisonous smoke and rock cannonballs flying in all directions. These rock cannonballs of various sizes carried immense kinetic energy as they crossed tens of kilometers in a short time and splattered onto the battlefield. Therefore, the flying creatures also welcomed a catastrophe.

A griffin unfortunately ran into a two-ton flying rock. After the rock brushed past its body, half of the griffin’s body disappeared, and missing together was the griffin knight on its back. The remaining half of the griffin spiraled to the ground and crashed into an elven ranger who was running desperately, turning the other into a flesh and blood pancake.

A red dragon was incessantly flapping its wings and flying forward. He crashed into several smaller flying rocks one after another. Although he was not as miserable as the griffin due to the protection of his hard dragon scales, the immense kinetic energy still sent him tumbling in the air. Just as he adjusted his flying posture and was about to continue flying, a gigantic rock cannonball about one thousand tons slammed into him and smashed him down from the sky...

The angels were also fleeing, but they were smarter. They used holy light magic to augment their shields and then charged forward with the shields. In addition, they were relatively small, making them more agile, so not many of them were shot down. But at this moment, the spreading volcanic ash rolled in and covered the entire battlefield. In the thick smoke, the visibility was so bad that they could not even see their fingers. They could not see more than a meter away, so the angels lost their sense of direction. Many angels flew and hit their allies, causing them to crash down together.

Isabel, Céhirtazi, and Gadakos were also running away at this time. Isabel was better. Due to her colossal body, the Gold Dragon Queen, Céhirtazi, had been struck the most during her flight. Fortunately, she was powerful, so she did not fall. As for the Titan King, Gadakos, the sad news was that he could not fly...

Although the Titan King could also transform into lightning and fly, this transformation did not mean that he could directly fly out of Eeofol all the way. Instead, he would have to stop every once in a while before he could move forward again. This ability was a little like the flame teleportation of demons, while Gadakos was just lightning teleportation.

Technical limitations were one thing, but even worse, it was unknown what had given him stupendously bad luck. When Gadakos completed the first teleportation, he had passed over more than sixty kilometers away. But the moment he transformed back, an enormous hole happened to open up under his feet because of the ground tearing. He only had time to roar unwillingly before falling straight into the crack...

He was not going to die. With his incomparable physical strength, he would be fine no matter from how high he fell. But the problem was that the crust below was still squeezing due to the intense energy. If he could not climb back up before the crack closed, then the dignified Titan King might be buried forever underground...
