Chapter 413 Accident

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Regardless of how terrible Dante felt Urizen’s name was, when he truly faced Urizen, he realized how powerful this demon was.

Dante, Trish, and Lady attacked Urizen with all kinds of methods, but he merely sat on the throne that represented his identity and defeated all three of them without even moving

Urizen sent Trish and Lady flying and knocked them unconscious. They lay on the ground, and it was unknown if they were dead or alive. Dante could still hold on for a while, but in his human form, his attacks were completely ineffective against Urizen. He was sent flying again and again, and after a while, he was panting and covered in wounds.

After being knocked into the air one last time, Dante could no longer get up. Urizen sat on the throne, and the blood-sucking roots spread toward Dante, wanting to suck his blood away.

At this moment, Nero and V rushed over. Seeing that something was wrong, Nero shot the spreading vines and repelled them to save Dante. “Heh… Looks like this trip isn’t a complete waste of time…” Nero mocked before shouting at Urizen, “Hey! Idiot over there! Didn’t your mother teach you that stealing isn’t a good habit?”

As he spoke, Nero could not help but reach out his left hand to touch his bandaged right arm. Of course, he knew that this demon in front of him was extremely powerful. Didn’t he see how badly Dante was beaten? But no matter how powerful he was, Nero had to do it because this guy was the bastard who snatched his right arm!

He reached out and drew Red Queen from behind him. With one hand holding the hilt of his sword, he stabbed it into the ground, twisted the energy valve a few times, and then said to Dante, who was still struggling to get up, “Sorry, Dante. I’ll take care of this guy…”

“Wait… wait!” Dante, who was lying on the ground, hurriedly said. He was trying to stop Nero’s impulse, but it was useless. Nero had already rushed forward with his sword.

Then… then Nero was quickly beaten back!

Even Dante was no match for him, and Nero, who no longer had his demon right arm, was even worse. He could not activate the demon bloodline in his body and was currently only a slightly stronger human. Facing the defensive line that Urizen had set up with his stingers floating in the air, Nero could not even break through it. After a few exchanges, he was sent flying and slammed into a pillar in the hall before falling down with a bang.

Looking at the bloodied Nero who was unable to get up for a long time, V, who was still at the entrance, was at a loss.

Although he had found Dante and wanted to use his power to kill Urizen, he did not expect the demon separated from his body to be so powerful

“Aw! Owh!It’s over. It’s all over now!” the demon crow flying beside V could not help but shout when seeing this.

On the other hand, Urizen, who was sitting on the throne, seemed to feel bored. He raised a hand and aimed at Dante and Nero on the ground. A massive amount of magic power began to gather in his palm as he prepared to kill the two ants in front of him with this blow.

Nero naturally saw the fireball appearing in Urizen’s palm, but his entire body was in excruciating pain, and he could only watch as the fireball grew bigger and bigger…

Just as Nero thought that he was going to die, a gunshot suddenly rang out. A magic power bullet hit Urizen’s palm and interrupted his gathering magic power.

Nero turned around and saw that it was Dante, who had already gotten up. He was holding Ebony & Ivory and pointing them at Urizen. The faint smoke of gunpowder at one of the muzzles was drifting into the air and dissipating

“Time for the second round, bastard!” Dante said while panting heavily.

With that, Dante spread his arms, and magic power quickly surged in his body. The next second, his human appearance disappeared, replaced by a ferocious demon with red and black skin!

Nero recognized at a glance that this was Dante’s demon form.

He reached out his hand, drew Rebellion from his back, spread his demon wings, and flew toward Urizen. He instantly arrived in front of him and slashed.

Clang! Urizen raised his right hand and easily blocked Dante’s slash. Dante’s sword could not even touch Urizen’s body. Half a meter in front of Urizen, an invisible force field prevented Dante from moving forward. “Ahhhh!” Dante roared and stimulated all the magic power in his body, wanting to break through this force field. The magic power of both sides collided, and the entire hall began to shake violently.

No matter how hard Dante tried, he could not break through this force field. This made him realize that the difference between the two sides was too great, so he turned around and shouted at V, “V! Take Nero and get out of here! We made a mistake!”

Hearing Dante’s roar, Nero gritted his teeth, stood up, and shouted unwillingly, “No! I can still fight!”

“Nero, leave quickly!” Dante roared. “You’re only a burden here!”

“What?!” Nero wanted to rush forward angrily, but at this moment, a giant rock fell from above and was about to strike his head. Fortunately, V had sharp eyes and quick hands, and he pulled Nero back. After pulling Nero back, V pushed him, wanting to take him away from here. He knew that Dante was right. Everyone could not be buried here. If Nero left, there was still a chance of survival. They could gather strength again and come back to take revenge.

The shaking and trembling became more and more intense, and boulders kept falling from above. The hall was about to collapse. Although Nero was unwilling, V held him tightly and brought him out of the hall.

“Don’t be like this. Let’s go!” V pulled Nero. “We have to leave. He’s much stronger than we thought!”

“That bastard actually called me a burden… We’ve already come this far. We can’t waste all our efforts!” Nero roared.

The falling boulders began to bury the entrance. After pushing Nero out of the entrance, V held his shoulder and said, “Don’t be upset. Find a way to become stronger and then come back to help! If Dante loses, you’re the only one who can defeat Urizen…”

Perhaps V’s words moved Nero. He finally stopped persisting and let V support him as they escaped from the tree.

However, after Nero and V left, Dante, who had stayed behind to fight against Urizen, could no longer hold on. Urizen clenched his fist and punched Dante’s sword fiercely. A powerful impact suddenly burst out and shattered Rebellion!

Dante screamed as he flew backward. His demon form disappeared as he returned to his human form and smashed onto the ground.

Only the hilt of Rebellion remained. It rolled and fell beside Dante. Under Urizen’s cold and ruthless gaze, countless boulders fell and buried Dante and the others…

Devil May Cry’s operation ended in a crushing defeat…

Sitting on the throne, Urizen glanced at the collapsing hall and slowly stood up. The roots that connected to him on his back were also brought up. In fact, the reason why he had been sitting on this throne was that he was supplying magic power to the Qliphoth, which was also why the tree grew so tall. And before the fruit of the Qliphoth fully matured, Urizen had to maintain the supply of magic power and could not cut off his connection with these roots, so he could only sit like this.

But now that this place had collapsed, he naturally could not use it anymore. He planned to find another place to place his throne.

As for the life and death of Dante and the others, Urizen did not think too much about it. The difference in strength was too vast. To him, they were just like ants. So what if they died? So what if they were alive? He did not care at all…

On another side, Nero and V rushed out from the exit of the Qliphoth. Nero looked back at the massive tree behind him. He knew that Dante, Trish, and Lady were probably dead, but he still had some hope in his heart, hoping that they were not dead.

Hold on, Dante. I’ll be back soon… Nero thought before leaving with V.

Not long after Nero and V left, the Qliphoth became restless again. The roots buried deep underground began to hunt humans once more. Not only that, but spatial rifts opened up one after another inside the tree. Numerous demons emerged from these spatial rifts and spread around the interior of the tree. After the number reached a certain extent, these demons began to fly out from the tree under Urizen’s order. They went outside to hunt humans and then bring back the corpses to supply blood to the Qliphoth.

All of Red Grave City plunged into a horrendous disaster, and the cities around Red Grave City suffered the same fate, also becoming hunting grounds for the demons… Although panic was spreading on the humans’ side, they gritted their teeth and counterattacked. More fighter jets took off with cruise missiles to attack the tree. Unfortunately, the missiles they fired could not even detonate, because after Urizen relocated the throne, the area around the Qliphoth was under the protection of an enormous spatial barrier!

This spatial barrier was enormous, but it was mainly concentrated in the upper half of the Qliphoth because the tree crown had already borne a fruit. In order to prevent people from approaching it, Urizen used the barrier to protect it.

To be able to use such powerful space magic and power, this was the embodiment of Urizen’s strength as a demon lord…

With the protection of the barrier, human missiles could not attack the Qliphoth at all. After coming into contact with the invisible spatial barrier, the missiles either detonated in advance or disappeared without a trace. After discovering this problem, the human military was dumbfounded. They had thought of using nuclear bombs to attack this demon tree, but what could they do now?

With humanity’s current level of technology, it was impossible for them to come into contact with the profoundness of spatial laws… It had to be said that this was the greatest difference between mysticism and science.

The Qliphoth continued to produce the fruit, and the demons’ hunts continued. At this time, Sareth, who had been searching for the Demon Bible stele, finally returned…

Using his flame wings to fly, Sareth appeared in the sky above Red Grave City. At this moment, compared to before he set off, he had a giant bag on his back.

Inside this bag was the Demon Bible stele!

Sparda had not hidden this stone stele. The information V told Sareth was indeed correct, but Sareth did not know the exact location that V said, so he had searched a large area over the past ten days before finally finding it.

After finding the Demon Bible stele, Sareth sighed in relief. He finally completed the mission Roy gave him.

After returning with the stele, Sareth initially wanted to find Dante and the others. But in Red Grave City, he saw a scene of devastation. Numerous demons were moving in all corners of the city, but he could not see Dante and the others at all.

Did something bad happen? Sareth’s heart tightened as he spread his flame wings and flew toward the Qliphoth.

From time to time, the figures of flying demons appeared in the sky. In order to avoid them attacking him, Sareth could only transform into his demon form and use the cover of his demon form to move forward. This move was quite effective, and Sareth flew unimpeded all the way to the top of the Qliphoth.

Where… could they be? Sareth was in a dilemma after arriving in front of the Qliphoth. This tree was too enormous and occupied a vast area, so he did not know where to start.

Should I… start from the top of the tree and search to the bottom? Sareth thought as he scratched his head. Then he followed the path and quickly arrived above the enormous spiral-shaped tree crown. This place was already high in the sky, and he could not see any demons. He found it strange, but he did not think too much about it. He held the bag on his back and rushed down. However, when he was still a distance away from the crown of the tree, he suddenly felt that he had hit something. Strong resistance came, but before he could react, the resistance suddenly disappeared. With a slight pop, Sareth rushed in.

Huh? What was that just now? Sareth was dumbfounded, not understanding what had happened.

But after floating in place and waiting for a while, nothing happened. In the end, he could only continue moving forward.

When he finally flew to the top of the tree, he looked around at the empty scenery after landing. The ground was made of circular branches and was very solid, but apart from this, there was nothing else…

Oh, wait, there seems to be something! Sareth saw something that looked like a tree branch in front of him in the distance, and he ran over curiously.

When he came close, he finally saw clearly that it was an abrupt, upright branch. At the end of this branch was a strange little fruit hanging on it. This fruit looked a bit like an apple, but a bright net-like membrane wrapped around it, and the inside was bright red. This small fruit was not even ten centimeters large, and it was beating rhythmically like a heart.

The most ridiculous thing was that there were sticky, blood-like things dripping from the fruit from time to time… It should be blood because Sareth could already smell the strong smell of blood.

Is this… the fruit of the Qliphoth. Sareth’s eyes widened, and he could not help but reach out to touch the fruit. Then he quickly shrank back and shook his hand. This thing is disgusting…

However, despite feeling disgusted, Sareth discovered the extraordinary aspects of this fruit. Even just standing in front of it, he could feel the powerful magic power contained in it.

This fruit seems to be growing… Sareth suddenly had a thought. When it matures, it should contain formidable magic power. If… if I use this fruit as an offering, can I open a Gate of the Abyss and let Foster Father come here?
