Chapter 670: Pass
Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance
When the Molten Archdevil’s shadow disappeared from the outskirts of the First Mountain Range, Marvin had been baffled.
He had initially assud that this was a tactic of the Molten Archdevil used to catch him off guard.
But when the voice of the Truth Goddess echoed in his mind, he understood.
All the pieces of the puzzle in Marvin’s mind assembled as he suddenly revealed a playful smile. ’Surely my grandfather wouldn’t... right?’
’Is he preparing to unify the Nine Hells?’
...
Compared with the Molten Archdevil fleeing from a fight, the big event that just took place in Hell spread even faster.
Ever since the Millennium War started, the Scorched Hell Archdevil didn’t make any big moves.
People even wondered if Diross had lost his power as a descendant of an Ancient Angel after suffering the loss from the Cridland Clan.
But in the ti since the Great Calamity began, everything changed.
The Nine Hells faintly felt the killing intent perating the air.
The Scorched Lord ca back strong, re-organized the Scorched Hell’s power and swept away the gloomy situation of the Scorched Hell in the Nine Hells.
Even the quality and quantity of the Devils in the Scorched Hell had increased.
This point was clearly shown in the current Millennium War. The Scorched Hell’s Devils beca stronger than they were in the past, and not only did they have the advantage in the battle against the Demons, but they still had a rare superiority in the skirmish against the other Hells.
The na Diross, which hadn’t been ntioned for such a long ti, was once again resurging.
Many people thought like this. Just when you almost forgot about him, he sohow found a way to reappear in the forefront of everyone’s sight.
Such a huge crisis happening in Hell due to an internal invasion directly drew the attention of the entire Universe!
From what everyone was saying, along with the information he had in hand and the bit he gained after grouping up with Constantine’s group, he was certain of the reason that the Molten Archdevil didn’t fight.
Things first started when Marvin left for the Crimson Wasteland, where he found a Hell Familiar.
At that ti, he warned the Migratory Bird Council to be careful of Hell’s invasion.
And that Familiar actually ca from the Scorched Hell, from Diross.
After Marvin left, Diross sent capable subordinates to get in touch with the Migratory Bird Council.
Both sides apparently ca to so sort of a mysterious agreent.
After that, the Scorched Hell faked attacking the Supre Jungle while secretly withdrawing troops from the Millenium War. They were, in fact, consolidating their strength while waiting.
Because the Nine Fallen Angels had set up boundaries, the planar barriers between the Nine Hells were stronger than regular planar barriers.
Especially because of sothing like that, invasion between the different Hells was sothing rarely ever seen.
Devils paid attention to Order. Rules were sothing that couldn’t be infringed on.
But Diross actually cleverly shifted the attention this whole ti while picking out the weakest force of the Nine Hells to attack – The Molten Clan!
The Molten Clan used up a lot of strength after fighting continuously with the Humans. At the sa ti, when the First Generation Molten Archdevil fell, his Molten Spawn was actually divided in three. One third was passed on as an inheritance, and two thirds disappeared in the Molten Hell.
This led to the strength of the Molten Archdevil not being as great as one might expect.
From what Marvin had heard, the death of the First Generation Molten Archdevil should have been due to Diross’ plot. Not the Diross that was Marvin’s grandfather, but the original Archdevil.
And that was because those two thirds of the remaining Molten Spawn had been in his hands.
One was given to Marvin and the other one was in Diross’ hands.
How could Diross and the Great Druids co to an agreent? Marvin didn’t know.
But what he understood was that because of the help of the Great Druids, the Scorched Devils who were originally pretending to siege the Supre Forest had the opportunity to sneak attack the Molten Hell instead.
Especially when the Molten Clan was busy invading Feinan, tearing apart the defenses of mankind. After launching their attack on the Night Walkers’ northern headquarters, the Molten Hell was pretty empty.
Diross finally made a big move.
All the Scorched Devils that had been waiting in preparation finally flooded the Molten Hell.
It didn’t take long before the Molten Archdevil was left near death by Diross and forced to flee. The Molten Hell was now also under the control of the Scorched Hell!
Diross appeared in front of the Molten Devils and showed the Molten Spawn before taking it all over.
He beca the new Molten Hell Lord.
At that instant, the forces of the Molten Hell still opposing him amounted to 7831 Devils!
Three seconds later, they were all killed.
The rest of the Molten Hell gave its allegiance to him.
The Molten Archdevil was escaping, so he obviously wouldn’t dare to expend any energy to fight Marvin!
Everything happened so suddenly that even the Truth Goddess was startled.
In the ssage she left Marvin, the Truth Goddess made it clear that she was leaving to check on Hell.
She seed very concerned about Diross’ move breaking the millennium-long balance of the Nine Hells.
What made people even more bewildered by the move was that Diross, after just taking the position of Lord of the Molten Hell, used his own power to proclaim two things to the entire Universe:
1st – The Scorched Hell and the Molten Hell are one and the sa! Diross is the Lord of the two Hells.
2nd – Marvin is Diross’ grandson.
...
Compared with the first piece of news, the second was slightly more tricky.
But after that indifferent voice announced that information, all those gazes on Marvin changed.
In the end, what was that guy’s background?
The Truth Goddess was apparently supporting him. The Scorched Lord was his grandfather. Wasn’t all this too much?
Even if the two might not be blood-related, for Diross to send this ssage when at his strongest gave a "go ahead and try making a move on Marvin" attitude, making even the most savage God Descendants feel like remaining well-behaved.
For so ti, the surroundings of the First Mountain were quiet.
Everyone silently stood in place while contemplating the implications of these developnts.
The Azure Matriarch clenched her teeth, but didn’t try anything.
So confusion could be seen in Eve’s eyes, before hardening into resolution.
At her side, the son of the God of Dawn and Protection had a thoughtful expression on his face.
Everyone reacted differently.
As for Marvin, he was still smiling bitterly.
That really was a crazy move that Diross made. In such troubled tis, what was that guy thinking?
’Is he trying to show his support for in the fight over the Fate Tablet?’
But that would be a useless attempt.
In front of a Divinely powerful item like the Fate Tablet, everyone would risk their lives.
At that ti, background, fa, any of these kinds of things would be useless!
...
But fortunately, Marvin still maintained a proper attitude.
Whatever Diross’ intention was, he would find out in the future.
The Nine Hells were certainly worthy of attention, but the most important matter right now was the Sky Tower.
After "saving" Constantine and Sophie, he found a place for them along with Isabelle.
As for Wayne, he simply couldn’t find the slightest trace of him anymore, so he could only give up for now.
Marvin believed that when the pass from the Sky Tower started appearing, Wayne would definitely appear.
At that ti, there might not be anyone left that would dare to hinder Marvin!
But he would always be ready.
He held Sodom’s Blades in his hands as he circled around the Sky Tower with a casual attitude.
Whenever he approached soone, they would all feel an intense fear of the daggers in his hands.
They were all afraid of Marvin’s fighting strength and Sodom’s Blades.
A casual move from Marvin might be enough to cause others to yield.
Marvin didn’t know whether to laugh or cry about this.
Ti flew by.
A day later, in the evening.
The sun set under a rare clear sky.
Even though it was still bright out, the people staring at the Sky Tower saw a blue light at the very top!
In the middle of that blue light was a stone with runes engraved upon it.
Everyone knew that it was the pass leading to the Sky Tower!
