Chapter 1478: Tristram

A single Nova Blast disintegrated the Hell Creatures around Abel, and the Firewalls that followed up created barriers that automatically burned them up.

It was too easy, almost like Abel was wasting spells, but still, Abel sensed a lingering sense of danger.

He looked around. He had barely made it out alive the last time he visited Tristram, so he had not had the time to observe the environment, but this time he did.

There was a red Portal door at a street corner, and the mana around here was just as dense as other places in the Dark World. It even had a river nearby, like the Rogue Encampment.

Still, there was something odd about it. Beside the screams of Hell creatures and the sound of water running, the place was dead silent.

There was no wind, and the air was stiff.

As the Hell creatures dropped dead one by one, Abel slowly moved forward.

There was an eternal flame of hell burning in the distance. It was huge, and Abel realized they were actually a few houses still burning as he approached.

Other than the concrete walls, everything had been turned to ash.

More Hell creatures charged out from all directions, but even the leaders were killed by Abel’s human body in an instant.

…

As he slowly approached the houses, he suddenly heard a crazy laugh. At the same time, the flames on the houses shot up.

The stench of Hell engulfed the place, and Abel felt his heart drop.

That crazy laugh was a laugh of arrogance, with the intent to kill any intruder.

Abel was no stranger to it. In fact, he had heard it from the Lord of Destruction in the Sanctuary. But why was the Lord of Destruction here?

Still, he was not too worried with his current rank, especially since he had all the World Stones. He didn’t even need to make a move with his angel avatar.

Abel pointed at the Hell creatures around and stated grimly, “Bound!”

To his surprise, it didn’t work. It seemed these Hell creatures were not recognized by the World Stone.

At that moment, a fully red hell creature stepped out of the burning house. It looked exactly like the Lord of Destruction, but was much stronger.

“Super Lord of Destruction!?” The name appeared from his World Stone.

“Man, why are you in my territory? I will kill you and stick your head on my spines!” the Super Lord of Destruction spoke clearly.

Abel was startled, and at the same time he saw a few human heads impaled on the spines on its back.

The angel avatar charged forward, and the Super Lord of Destruction did as well. Bang!

The two bodies collide and the angel avatar was knocked back by a few steps.

The Super Lord of Destruction only shook a little, and a red beam quickly emerged from its body. It was a Nova Blast.

Since Abel had his World Stone activated, he knew what to do.

He Flashed behind the angel avatar for protection and kept calm. The angel avatar could survive the blast, and Abel knew he was still in control of the battle.

But as soon as the Nova Blast ended, purple lightning shot out from the mouth of the Super Lord of Destruction. For a whole five seconds the angel avatar was blasted by lightning, but it was still too weak to do any damage.

The Super Lord of Destruction did not have any Curses like Baal, and its spell attacks were much weaker.

After its attacks failed, it cast a special spell called “Trick”.

It was normally only effective on low rank beings, so it made no sense to use it on Abel.

The angel avatar used this opportunity to use a shield strike on the Super Lord of Destruction, but to Abel’s surprise, it did not stun the creature. In fact, it merely angered the Super Lord of Destruction, and it started to attack with its claws.

The angel avatar held back its shield as the Super Lord of Destruction made a swipe with its left claw, right claw, and a flick of its tail.

It was at that moment Abel realized something. This Super Lord of Destruction’s fighting style was not bound by the World Stone at all. It was fully autonomous!

Still, it was too weak, and Abel’s human body casted a Static Field from behind the angel. The creature roared in pain, and with a look of fury turned to Abel’s human body.

Nova Blast, Purple Lightning, Frozen Contact, Firewall, and Blizzard shot out simultaneously from the Super Lord of Destruction. It knew its true enemy was not the angel avatar, but Abel’s human body!

However, the angel avatar blocked it all again, and all it took was a few Full Recovery Potions.

After ten more Static Fields, the Super Lord of Destruction had lost half of its health, and Abel began to try out other spells.

First was the Blizzard. It did not do too much damage, so Abel changed to the fire spell Meteoroids. It was still not good, so he changed to the Lightning.

It looked like this Super Lord of Destruction was very high in resistances. It was a wizard’s nightmare!

Abel scanned his Portal Bag with his Power of The Will and took out the Kepler Snare to strike.

But again, it didn’t seem to slow down the Super Lord of Destruction too much.

Abel shook his head. What was its weakness? He couldn’t figure it out.

His angel avatar struck back with its Angel Sword, but the Super Lord of Destruction was recovering at a spell he could follow with his eyes.

It seemed speed was the defining factor. If he let the battle drag on, he would be in a rough spot.

“How stupid am I?” Abel suddenly realized he had forgotten something and he thumped his own head.

His God Rank Summons were still in the Throne of Destruction after he had defeated Baal!

That battle forbade his Summons from entering, but for this one he could totally use their Auras to enchant his angel avatar!

He didn’t want his Summons to be killed by the Super Lord of Destruction, but he was confident that he could give them Full Recovery Potions in time with his World Stone.

As Abel waited for God Rank Two, his human body kept Casting spells no matter how trivial they were. After all, any slowing of the Super Lord of Destruction’s recovery rate was good.

After five minutes, God Rank Two charged through from the red Portal of Tristram.

The first thing it did was activate a Holy Aura. The damage of Abel’s angel avatar multiplied instantly. It was no longer making little wounds on the Super Lord of Destruction, but big ones!

The Super Lord of Destruction roared in pain and grew even angrier.

Suddenly, Abel sensed a threat. He wrapped God Rank Two in his Power of The Will and Flashed away without even thinking. At the same time, he injected a Full Recovery Potion into the angel avatar.

It was too dangerous, and the angel avatar had to step back.

If Abel’s angel avatar lost its defense, Abel’s human body and God Rank Two might be attacked.

Half a second after Abel and God Rank Two moved away, a giant lava ball landed from the sky and struck the angel avatar.

Its health began to drop as elemental fire burned it.

It was a spell called Destruction From Above and Below, a top level druid spell. However, it was much stronger when Cast by the Super Lord of Destruction.

Even though the angel avatar was surviving with a Full Recovery Potion every few seconds, Abel knew his human body and God Rank Two would be dead if they got too close.

Therefore, they had to step out of the battle for now.

Since he had mastered his intuition, he knew how dangerous the situation was. It was life-threatening.

The spell lasted for one hundred seconds and the angel avatar returned to fighting after using up twenty Full Recovery Potions.

Afterwards, Abel’s human body Flashed back in again, but this time he directly entered the angel avatar.

Since his spells were not doing much anyway, he focused all his attention on the angel avatar with his World Stone to give it even greater accuracy.
