Chapter 557 Divine Power
Noshil took the contract and signed his name on the side of the master. The moment Noshil finished writing, the hellfire engulfed the absolute contract that Gargos declared his complete loyalty to. Noshil also immediately sensed the effectiveness of the contract.
He felt like he had an invisible chain in his hand, and the other end of the lock pointed directly at the shield in front of him. Noshil knew in his heart that this chain meant his absolute dominance over Gargos. If Noshil wanted, he could use this invisible chain to tear Gargos' soul at will, order him to do anything, torture him forever, and even directly destroy his soul and kill him completely.
But Noshil would not do this. After all, it was too wasteful. Even if Gargos lost his divinity, he was still an out-and-out legendary deep hell demon. Such strength would always be useful.
Although his original purpose was to rely on the nine-ring spell on the Crown of Domination and Noshir's demonic form to turn Gargos into a soul gem, thereby separating him from his divinity and achieving the purpose of plundering divinity, Gargos is now willing to sign such a contract to sell himself in order to survive. Noshir, who has been stealing his voice through the crown, will naturally not do such a thing, after all...
"Ha... My master, I wonder if you are satisfied now-what do you want to do?"
Noshir did not respond to Gargos's question. He just suddenly got up from the chair, took Gargos' shield in one hand, and quickly rushed to the basement, and soon came to the former hell sacrifice site.
This room originally lined up statues dedicated to communicating with Zariel, but now it has been completely destroyed. Now there is only a large blank room built with black rocks. This space is also the largest blank space in this underground city.
Noshier came here alone, placed the shield in the middle of this space, and then took out a silver two-handed hammer from the space box on his waist, clenched his hands, raised them high, and then slammed down on the shield in the middle!
In an instant, in the ecstatic mind fluctuations of Gargos, a crisp, shattering sound suddenly sounded from the surface of the shield, and dense cracks covered the devil's face on the surface of the shield, and crimson light shone from the cracks! Then in the next moment, the shield shattered and exploded!
"Finally! I am free!!!!"
Along with the shattering shield, a scarlet and burning evil aura suddenly spread with endless energy! The storm caused by the energy blew up the luxurious cloak that Noshier was wearing, and the crimson evil aura swept the entire room in an instant, but Noshier just stood in the center of the storm and stood still.
He just quietly looked at the crimson storm in front of him, watching the storm sweeping everything around him, and then watching the storm slowly shrinking, and the huge evil spirits also shrank back, condensing into a scarlet energy body in front of him.
Until finally all the evil spirits shrank back into the energy body, accompanied by a sound like a beating heart, the energy body suddenly burst again, and this time it was no longer a storm, but a low sound.
"The damn shield finally broke, ah~~ This feeling of being completely unrestrained and able to stretch my body freely, I don't know how many centuries I haven't experienced it."
In the crimson blood mist, a huge monster was stretching its body wantonly, the huge wings were just folded together, and the top joint barbs almost reached the ceiling, which was more than 5 meters high. The wings were stretched out, and their width was enough to occupy 1/3 of the length of the room.
Gargos flapped his wings slightly, and the wind blew away the blood mist, revealing his majestic figure that was unique to the Hell Devil. He was a humanoid beast that was more than four meters tall when he stood up, wearing red scales, with ferocious fangs, horns on his head, and a six-meter-long tail behind him.
Gargos stretched out his claws and turned them in front of him. He snapped his fingers and turned into a huge fireball, tossing it in one hand, enjoying this rare free body.
"Have you admired enough, Gargos?"
Noshil suddenly knocked the handle of the two-handed hammer in his hand against the ground. The crisp sound and Noshil's words finally made the giant devil in front of him come back to his senses. He looked down at Noshil.
For a moment, his scarlet eyes, burning with hellfire, instinctively flashed with all kinds of inexplicable impulses, but in the end, Gargos still lowered his head obediently, knelt on one knee, and said to Noshir in a humble tone.
"Thank you for giving me freedom. My only master in this life, the great Lord Noshir, thank you very much for giving me freedom at this time and exempting me from the punishment of the Styx."
Noshir put away the war hammer and looked at Gargos at the same time, silently estimating how much powerful power he still had in his current demigod body.
It stands to reason that Gargos should not have much energy left even if he was not soaked in the Styx and weakened his power after just ending the long sealing period. In other words, Gargos is still in an incomplete posture. But even with such a Gargos, Noshir can still feel a strong sense of oppression on this body that can even threaten him and defeat him.
‘…This is divinity. Creatures on the path to becoming gods are a hundred times more powerful than any mortal creature. ’
Noshier looked at Gargos, and his heart couldn’t help but feel a surge of heat. On Gargos, he even felt a strong pressure similar to that of Zariel.
You know, when he first met Zariel, he was just a novice at level 4, so weak that he couldn’t even attract Zariel’s attention. Now he has become a powerful warrior at level 16, with four legendary equipment enhancements on him. But even so, Noshier can still feel that unique sense of oppression, which makes him feel itchy and want to challenge him!
‘No, I can’t do this, hold it back. ’
Noshier forced himself to suppress the corners of his mouth that wanted to curl up involuntarily, ignoring the burning mood of eagerness to try, shook his head violently, and spoke to Gargos in front of him.
"It's just because you made the right choice. I've seen that thing before. That contract is really a complete indenture. It can even be said that you have handed over all your control to me. I have to say that you are really courageous. Ah, come to think of it, is it because you don't want to be soaked in the water of the Styx that you wrote the contract so harshly?"
"You can say that, but the main reason is that I am afraid that after being weakened by the water of the Styx, my physical condition will not be enough to support me to take the initiative to strip off my divinity. In order to avoid a dead end, it is better to solve the matter in advance. It will be better for both of us."
