1061 The Fierce Demon
"Demon! Now tell me about your creator!"
Steve's voice was filled with calm power!
The power of the Crusaders never comes from anger, but wisdom is born from calm thinking.
And this power is the source of the power of the Crusaders!
In fact, if there is any group among the Nephalem that has the most favorable impression of Malthael, the Archangel of Wisdom, it should be the Crusaders!
It's a pity that this favorable impression was exhausted when Malthael chose the most extreme way to destroy all human beings!
No one with normal thinking would have endless favorable impressions for an existence that tries to destroy himself!
Although Steve has not yet realized the cruelty of Malthael, this does not prevent him from drawing the power he needs from thinking!
"Creator? My creator?"
There is a little doubt in the voice of the demon.
"It's the burning hell!"
The demon finally uttered this word!
Steve has nothing else to ask, although he has learned about the existence of the demon Ultron from Tony and others.
He also saw the metal body from this strange demon.
That's why Steve asked and tried to understand what the most noble existence in the heart of this demon was.
But now it's not necessary, this guy is a demon, and such an answer will satisfy both parties.
Such an answer will not prevent them from the next brutal fight!
"Then get ready to welcome the arrival of death. In fact, since I knew the existence of demons and death, I have always wanted to know whether the demons taken away by death can still revive from the burning hell."
Steve's tone became relaxed.
He was more like chatting!
The hammer of blessing that rotated irregularly in the air seemed to echo Steve's words, and sparks were rubbed out when they crossed each other!
These sparks added a lot of holy feelings to this environment blocked by Dr. Doom with dark green energy!
"No one can be above the burning hell!"
The demon roared, and the metal on his body turned into inverted scales!
This image made him look a little more hideous!
"No one can be above a free will!"
Steve said very seriously.
The tower shield was in front of him, and Steve charged while speaking!
The charge of the Crusaders rarely makes people feel the huge destructive power, but that feeling is definitely not pleasant!
If you have to describe it, it is probably like seeing a mountain constantly approaching you, and it may turn into overturned rubble and bury you at any time!
"Roar~"
A strange cry came from the mouth of the demon, and the ground emitted a weak vibration under his roar!
This demon is not weak. As the earliest creation at the time when Ultron is about to become the Lord of Hell, the strength of these demons is also elite in the Burning Hell!
They even have the possibility of going further and becoming a new legend among demons!
But now he is facing Steve, a Crusaders who can be called powerful!
"Sink into the arms of death with your self-righteousness!"
Steve rushed towards the demon with the blessed hammers!
The continuous heavy hammers disrupted the center of gravity of the demon little by little!
The demon kept roaring, and the heavy hammers rubbed out pieces of fire on his scales!
At this time, Steve finally arrived at the side of the demon!
The flail swings!
The arm holding the handle has dropped!
The hideous and huge hammer head fell on the demon at this time!
"I am a cruel demon. When will the Crusaders understand what cruelty is!"
The voice of the demon was up and down with severe pain, but the eyes facing the hammer head were full of smug smiles!
When the demons were born, the Burning Hell would give them the experience and knowledge they should have as demons!
In the initial confrontation, the demon doubted the experience he had gained!
But after being attacked by Steve, this doubt immediately disappeared!
At this time, according to his own experience and his own unique abilities, he did not hesitate to pay the price of his own serious injury and brought Steve into his own trap!
"Boom!"
"I am not the same as the demons you know, but you are exactly the same as the Crusaders in my experience!"
The demon's head was smashed by the flail!
But this did not affect his next move, and it did not even affect his speech!
The heads of most demons are vital points, but there are also many demons that need to be beaten to pieces before they can be killed!
At least this demon's body structure is not limited to the vital points in the normal sense!
The upside-down metal scales scattered and turned into a human-shaped cage next to Steve! ①
The next moment, the metal closed towards Steve's body with malice!
When the metal closed completely, a pool of blood seeped out from the bottom of the sculpture that looked exactly like the torture device!
"The Crusader is the most pain-tolerant Nephalem profession, but would you feel regretful if you only had pain to accompany you before death?"
The demon was left standing there, with only a small carrot-like figure left. He spoke slowly!
This new type of demon, no matter if it has no vital points in the normal sense, even if it is simply smashed, it will not affect its continued existence!
His real core is his consciousness, and his consciousness is as intangible as a ghost!
This is his trump card, which is useful for calculating those Nephalem who see this type of demon for the first time.
After all, not all Nephalem are good at detecting hidden souls in battle!
Not all Nephalem will destroy the soul of the demon as their first goal when fighting!
"Do you seem to want to hear my screams?"
Steve's voice became much lower when it came out of the cage.
"Your body was full of wounds the moment you were imprisoned by me, and life must feel pain, both mentally and physically!"
The demon laughed contemptuously.
At this time, he carefully observed the situation around him, and he did not forget Dr. Doom who suddenly appeared before!
From the energy that blocked this environment, the demon could roughly perceive the power that Dr. Doom had at this time!
Although that kind of power is still slightly inferior to the legendary, it is enough to deal with elite demons like him!
"Pain makes humans lose their minds, so we use pain as part of our practice."
There was no ripple in Steve's voice, and he said to the demon easily.
"And have you forgotten that I have come to your side, and you seem to have forgotten everything you think of when facing my charge."
There is still not much emotion in Steve's voice.
But the demon knows that this does not mean that the Crusaders will accept the existence of demons.
"Hero~"
A warhorse neighs!
A god warhorse with sacred fire all over its body appears beside the demon!
A golden chain is tightly wrapped around the core of the demon at some point!
The front end of the chain even directly pierces into the soul of the demon! Then it tightly wraps the heart of the soul!
"Since you said that you have gained the experience given by the Burning Hell, then I think you should also understand what you are about to encounter."
Steve's voice is still calm!
But the god warhorse has raised its front hoof!
"Warhorse charge·Warhorse drag?"
It's not hard to hear that the demon's voice is trembling!
He said the tricks used by the Crusaders with some difficulty!
Then he stared at the caltrops that Steve had scattered on the ground before!
Devotion·The ground is full of spikes!
The demon didn't want to endure the feeling of being dragged by the god's warhorse on such a ground!
He immediately remembered the pain when the spikes were pressed into the ground by the tower shield and then pierced his body!
Not all demons can regard torture as the value of all existence like Duriel!
"Although Dr. Doom has limited the scope of our battle, this is not necessarily a good thing for you."
Steve said slowly.
While he was speaking, a large number of wounds had appeared on the surface of the demon's body!
That was the fighting method that the Crusaders of Johanna's lineage were best at!
Thorns!
The damage they suffered will be converted into damage to the enemy!
They are willing to bear the damage that others should have borne for all other kind people, and these injuries will also turn into sacred thorns and entangle the enemies who caused the damage!
If you want to fight the Crusaders, you may not need a can opener that can pry open their heavy armor!
Rather, you need a will that can endure the same or even more pain as the Crusaders!
The Celestial Warhorse can't wait to start running!
As the Celestial Warhorse began to move, the chain holding the demon was tightened in an instant!
The demon tried to resist this huge force, but the chain linked to his core made him feel more pain with any movement!
The metal body was dragged to the ground fiercely!
Then it kept in contact with the caltrops on the ground, and then it began to become thinner little by little as if it was polished!
Screams began to come out continuously, and Steve still stayed quietly in the cage!
Steve didn't have any emotional changes, and he didn't show any normal reaction to the pain!
The demon's screams came one after another. Steve, who couldn't see the situation outside, could tell from the changing size of the sound that the demon was being dragged around the battlefield!
Steve did not pay a price, but for the strong vitality of the Nephalem, as long as he did not die on the spot, he would eventually be able to recover to a certain extent.
In order to create a disability, it must be a trauma caused by the power of some rules!
Elite demons are not incapable of mastering the power of rules, but such existence is regarded as the seed of legendary demons.
Such demons are not uncommon in the Burning Hell with endless demons, otherwise a powerful Nephalem like Bul-Kathos would not end up with scars all over his body.
But unfortunately, this newly born elite demon is still a long way from that level!
For a demon, the time required for this kind of growth will definitely not be short!
Not all demons are as lucky as Ultron, who set foot in the realm of the Hell Demon in a short period of time!
More of them are the most common kind of demons, who may not be able to cross over to the next level throughout their lives!
You must know that beings like Vidian, who have gone through countless years to become the Demon King of Hell, are also extremely talented among demons!
Although Steve has not yet come out of the cage, the battle is over at this time!
The celestial war horses summoned by the Crusaders of Johanna's lineage are somewhat different, although most of the time they can only exist for a short period of time.
But when the Crusaders suffer, the pain will be transformed into the power of the God's War Horse to continue to exist!
What Johanna felt when she dragged the demon around endlessly was the pain in her heart!
At this time, Steve was using physical pain to continue the power of the god's war horse!
Maybe Steve can't use this pain to make the god's horse run endlessly!
But it is more than enough to last until everything about this demon is completely wiped out on the thorny ground!
"If you really fully believe in the experience of the Burning Hell, then you should know not to try to compete with the Crusaders of Johanna's lineage."
These were the last words Steve said during this battle! That demon now only has the ability to scream!
Just have to wait for the dust to settle!
Dr. Doom, who is following Tony and the others on Vision's transformation, is also distractedly observing the situation on Steve's side.
Although both of them are on the human side, this does not prevent Dr. Doom from being wary of Steve!
Even though Steve is now Crusader Steve, the title of Captain America has been given to Bucky Barnes!
But Dr. Doom will never forget that Steve was once an icon of the country that wanted to harm La Tovilia!
When he "saw" the god's war horse dragging the demon on the thorny ground, he couldn't help but feel a hairy emotion in his heart.
To be honest, many of the Crusader's fighting methods can be considered severe torture for demons!
It's just that during those tortures, no one would complain about the devil. Instead, they would all choose to cheer loudly.
The original intention of the Crusaders is definitely not to torture demons. They just return the pain that humans have suffered from demons to demons in equal measure.
They don't have much malicious intent!
Even in the midst of battle, the Crusaders do not harbor any malicious intent!
These noble people who are exploring in the darkness with their backs to the light, all they have in their hearts is hope and the power born from thinking.
But this kind of fighting scene is still a bit exciting for Dr. Doom.
It was even more exciting than when he used prisoners for experiments...
"Victor, what are you doing?"
Tony noticed something unusual about Dr. Doom, so he asked.
Tony didn't like Dr. Doom very much, but at this time he also showed due respect for Dr. Doom's talent!
"It's nothing. We need to focus more on Vision's singleness. We need him to face Ultron."
Dr. Doom changed the topic. He did not want to discuss the performance of the Crusaders in the battle with Tony.
In his mind, he may have thought that Tony already knew how the Crusaders fought.
After all, Tony has definitely spent more time with Steve than he has with Steve.
