Before coming to this Darksiders world from the Abyss, Roy had dug up a lot of demon gold and threw it into the system space. If he only took out a little, he could bury people! No matter what, the demon gold is still gold. The shiny golden color won't lie. Roy is now a new rich man among the demons. He used countless gold bars to pull back Avarice, who wanted to escape.
The goblin stared greedily at the golden rod that kept falling from Roy's hands. A sweet and crisp voice continued to hit his eardrum. He wanted to escape, but his body walked obediently towards Roy step by step. He was Greed, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, so he naturally could not avoid this natural weakness.
Just as Avarice was about to approach Roy, Julia suddenly appeared behind him. He raised his sword and pierced through Avarice's body from his shoulder, nailing him to the ground.
Greed screamed, but his eyes were still fixed on the pile of gold in front of Roy.
Roy notices Julia holding Avarice and stops releasing the demon gold. But unexpectedly, when the sound of gold falling stopped, Avarice shouted with all her might, “Don't stop! Don'tstop! More, I want more gold! “
Roy was speechless. This guy really wants money…
Julia held the handle of her sword with both hands and stomped on Avarice's body with one foot. When he heard this, he let out a cold snort and activated his magic power. A black flame suddenly emerged from the sword, and under the high temperature of the flames, Avarice immediately let out a blood-curdling scream as the flesh on her wound began to hiss.
But this isn't the worst. The worst part was after the meat in Avarice's wounds was burned, it quickly regenerated and then continued to burn, falling into a cycle of torture!
This is because Julia's hellfire has a very special ‘recovery’ attribute. Previously, Julia used this flame to repair her broken armor. Now, he's using it in Avarice as a kind of torture.
Seeing the scene of Julia using fire, Roy had no idea why, but a word suddenly came to mind-nirvana! Julia's flame felt very similar to the phoenix's nirvana flame. But this fire was a black hell fire. As Samael changed and shaped his body, did he use materials from the Black Phoenix?
Thoughts swirled in Roy's mind, but he did not stop the movement of his hand. With a wave of his hand, he placed the gold stacked on the ground back into the space system.
This gold might be useful in other worlds in the future, so Roy didn't want to throw it here.
What Roy doesn't expect is that his actions have unintended consequences!
As the gold disappeared, Avarice, who was still shouting, suddenly froze. In the next instant, her anger exploded, and a powerful force suddenly erupted from her thin body, knocking Julia over. Julia's infernal flame was still hanging on her shoulder, but her feet were stepping on the ground, and she pounced on Roy fiercely!
“Gold! Where did you put my gold ?! ”
Roy is caught red-handed as his face welcomes Avarice's punch. As Avarice shouted, she used her sharp claws to tear Roy's face in panic. But since Roy wears a Cold Winter Armor helmet on his head, Avarice does not hurt him. It just made Roy's hard helmet creak and sparks fly everywhere.
He seems to think of the pile of gold Roy threw away as his own, but when Roy took it back, he instantly exploded!
Roy, who regained consciousness, was also very angry. He reached out and grabbed Avarice's face, but then he discovered that Avarice was extremely powerful at this moment! Under the struggle, it was difficult for Roy to catch him.
With a slight crack, Roy breaks one of Avarice's demon horns!
After breaking Avarice's demonic horn, Roy still hasn't vented his anger. He looked at Avarice, who was constantly waving her claws to try to scratch her, and sneered. He stretched out his hand and broke the other demon horn!
In general, demon horns have a thick layer of cuticle that keeps piling up. The horns usually do not have too many sensory nerves, but this is only under normal circumstances. Roy's brutal actions in breaking Avarice's demonic horn also affected the horn's roots. Greed screamed in pain as black blood continued to flow from his forehead.
Seeing Avarice's miserable state, Roy finally felt relieved. After using Psychokinesis to strangle Avarice in mid-air, she released her hand and took a few steps back.
As she retreated, Julia appeared from behind. This time, he showed no mercy. The sharp sword in his hand shone with a cold light, and with a quick slash, he split the Avarice in half!
Julia was petite and light in weight, so she was often easily defeated when facing opponents with extraordinary strength. And it's not just him. Almost all angels are similar to him. In combat, angels usually use skill and magic power to defeat their opponents, and they rarely fight their opponents with power, so Julia was furious when Avarice sent her flying twice. He felt a bit embarrassing in front of Roy, his partner, so he instantly killed Avarice.
Roy has retreated and given up now that he has noticed Julia's thoughts and given her the chance to save her face …
After splitting in two, Avarice finally stopped struggling. However, his body was clearly dead, but his bright red eyes were still staring intently at Roy, as if to bring Roy, the enemy who had taken his gold, to Hell together.
Jesus, the gold is obviously Roy's …
Julia swung the long sword in her hand and released the black blood beads on her sword. Then he walked up to Roy and said, “Did you notice? The strength of this person fluctuates greatly .. “” Yes! ” Roy nodded. “It looks like I stimulated him when I got rid of the gold. “I don't know much about the Seven Deadly Sins, but..” said Julia while thinking. “From Avarice's situation, certain emotions seem to increase his strength?”
In Fury's words, the Seven Deadly Sins that escaped the prison of the Charcoal Council were not demons, but rather a certain collection of negative emotional forces, and they existed in soul form. After escaping from prison and coming to the human world, they chose different bodies to have. Greed has possessed these goblins, but because goblins do not know how to use magic power, which is the case in many worlds where goblins are located, in battles with Roy and Julia, respectively, these goblins did not use magic power to attack.
However, without the use of magic, he had tremendous power and agility, especially the last explosion that forced Roy to use Bloodlust to hold him back.
After a brief conversation with Julia, Roy soon understands that perhaps the source of the power of the Seven Deadly Sins are the seven corresponding negative emotions. Once they generate or absorb these negative emotions from elsewhere, it is possible to increase their strength.
“We have to be fast!” Said Roy. “Now that the world is at the End of War, the negative emotions born under the stimulus of war must be very strong. This was when the Seven Deadly Sins absorbed the power. No wonder they came to the world of men. If we ignore them or delay them for too long, their strength might increase to the point where we cannot handle them.
Julia agreed. He knew very well that as long as beings had intelligence, they would definitely produce all kinds of emotions. This point is the same for humans, angels, and demons. Happiness, pleasure, fear, greed, anger, and so on, without these emotions, intelligent beings cannot be called intelligent beings, and they can only be considered as puppets.
Precisely because of this, even though the human population in this world had been greatly reduced, the Seven Deadly Sins could still obtain and absorb these negative emotions from angels or demons, or from demons, thus increasing their strength and breaking through their shackles to become stronger existences. At that time, it will be troublesome.
After speaking for a while, Roy discovers that although the goblin is dead, Avarice's soul has yet to be revealed.
After thinking about it, Roy took out a Sin Amulet and activated it with magic power.
A dazzling light lit up and turned into a lightning strike that connected to the goblins. Under the power of this Talisman of Sin, Greed, one of the Seven Deadly Sins, was finally pulled out of the body!
It was a special soul that was constantly changing, and countless faces appeared. Every face that appeared on the soul had a greedy expression, but this scene only lasted for a moment before the Sin Amulet took out a soul.
“Ah-!” Roy did not know if it was an illusion or not, but the Talisman of Sin even let out a satisfied sigh.
Seeing this, Roy suddenly thought and stored the Sin Amulet into the system space. He wanted to see what Avarice's soul was like in the system…
