Chapter 176 A Title Isn’t Easy to Write
Not long after, Roy caught up to Julia. Seeing Roy coming so quickly, Julia was extremely shocked. She naturally knew how difficult Ulthane was to deal with, but it was precisely because of this that she was shocked.
However, she did not ask Roy about the specific process. It was not easy for demons to survive in society, so almost all demons, including her, would leave a trump card. She could not casually inquire, even though they had become partners.
The closer they got to the central area, the more low-level demons they encountered. When these low-level demons saw Roy and Julia appear, they all chose to follow them without exception, so the demon entourage that Ulthane had killed was replenished.
In this underground bunker, the living areas of the surviving humans and the armory were separate, so when the humans saw Roy and Julia bringing a large group of demons to the armory, the survivors both rejoiced and felt uneasy.
They rejoiced because Roy and Julia did not show any intention of attacking the survivors. But their uneasiness was because the survivors did not know whether Roy and Julia would come back after going to the armory…
They could only hide behind the steel door, waiting anxiously for the verdict…
OL
At this moment, Roy and Julia had arrived outside the armory. Since they could not find the control room, they could only use violence to break the door. Fortunately, this method had always been what demons were best at. The task of breaking the door was naturally left to the low-level demons. They rushed forward, scratched with their claws, spat out flames, and smashed their weapons with all their might, using all kinds of attacks on the door.
It had to be said that this nuclear defense facility could be regarded as a fortress in a certain sense. Under the continuous attacks of many low-level demons, the door made of special alloy only deformed but could not be broken. Humans did not have the powerful bodies and strength of angels and demons, so all they could rely on was technology. In the end, Julia grew impatient. She pulled out her fallen angelic sword, stepped forward, and directly cut through the alloy door with her sword skill. Then Roy and the others entered.
In the armor, there were a large number of boxes of different sizes stacked all over. Thick, dust-laden canvases covered most of these boxes. But when Roy lifted open these canvases and opened the boxes, he found that the weapons stored inside were well maintained and were usable at any time.
There were some traces on the ground of the armory and many empty opened boxes. It seemed that the survivors had taken away a portion of the weapons.
Roy went further inside and saw rows of tanks and armored vehicles. If Roy were still a little demon, he might have found some fuel for these tanks and tried to play with them, but it was impossible now. His tall body could no longer get into these narrow tanks.
Julia was quite curious. She had seen humans driving these war chariots to fight against angels and demons, and she had even personally destroyed these weapons. But she could not understand how these mechanical puppets moved.
Although this world was a high-magic world, the humans here had not embarked on the path of magic. They did not have any magic power themselves, and these weapons did not seem to be driven by magic power…
“Do you want the weapons of these humans?” Julia asked Roy as they walked. “But these things are very weak. One slash can cut them open, so they’re useless!”
Roy looked at her and grinned. “You’ll know if you follow me!”
It was no wonder that Julia looked down on them. To angels and demons, these human weapons were indeed too weak. Not only were they clumsy, but their attacks were simple, and they did not have much defense. It seemed that it was precisely because of this that angels and demons rarely paid attention to the progress of human science and technology.
But for Roy, he knew very well that whether it was the scientific development route or the mystical development route, they might both arrive at the same destination in the end. The intercontinental nuclear bombs launched by humans could easily kill high-rank demons, so who could guarantee that technology would not develop to a point where interstellar warships could eliminate a demon lord in one shot?
In this world, it was not without reason that humans were an important part of the balance… It was not only in this world but also in many other worlds.
He led the many demons deeper into the armory. After destroying a few alloy doors one after another along the way, Roy finally arrived at the core of the armory. When he entered, the Demon Eye hidden in a corner flapped its little wings and flew toward Roy for him to store. Since the Demon Eye appeared here, it meant that this was where the tactical nuclear bombs were stored.
After opening a bunch of long boxes, Roy found what he wanted inside.
Unlike the big intercontinental nuclear missiles, tactical nuclear bombs were much smaller and ranged from three to five meters long. These missile-shaped weapons were meant to be mounted on fighter jets, so they were naturally not that big.
Roy easily grabbed a missile with one hand, waved it gently in his hand, and found it very convenient to handle. He could use these missiles, which were about the same height as him, as javelins and throw them without trouble.
The yield of these warheads was about two to three thousand tons, but there were only twelve of them, not too many. Roy estimated that even the human survivors might not know about the existence of these tactical nuclear bombs. Otherwise, they would have carried them out long ago to deal with the demons besieging the bunker.
But now, Roy did not stand on ceremony and accepted all of them. Although he did not know the activation codes for these nuclear bombs, it did not matter. With Daddy System around, he could use some souls to create a special detonator specifically to detonate these nuclear bombs.
“Let’s go. Let’s leave this place and continue looking for the Seven Deadly Sins. I already have a clue!” Roy put the twelve tactical nuclear bombs into the system space and waved at Julia.
The two of them walked out of the armory, and the demons naturally followed them. After coming out, the low-level demons were stunned because they realized that these two high-rank demons were planning to leave the underground!
Did they not want those delicious human souls full of fear and despair?
For a time, there was a commotion among the low-level demons. They did not know if they should follow Roy and Julia or stay here to find a way to break the human fortress and plunder the humans’ souls…
However, Roy did not care about them at all. Low-level demons were everywhere in this world, and Roy could encounter many of them at any time. Roy did not regard these low-level demons as his subordinates. It did not matter to Roy if they were willing to follow him or not. They would just be a group of cannon fodder to break into enemy lines. And for enemies that Roy and Julia could not deal with, it made no difference no matter how many low-level demons came.
Just like that, they left. When they were about to walk out of the central area, a figure suddenly appeared in front of them.
It was the Black Hammer Ulthane of the makers…
Roy was not surprised to see him and only sized him up for a moment. “I didn’t expect you to recover so quickly!” “It seems like you did let me go on purpose…” Ulthane placed his war hammer on the ground and said somewhat unhappily, “How laughable it is that a demon actually spared the life of Black Hammer Ulthane one day!”
“If you really want to die, I can fulfill your wish now!” Roy spread his wings and revealed a sinister smile. “Stop! I’m not here to fight you this time!” Ulthane said. “I’m just here to confirm if the demons besieging the survivors really have nothing to do with you.”
“No!” Roy shook his head. “If you want to save those humans, you’d better hurry up. If it takes too long, I can’t guarantee what will happen.” Ulthane looked at Roy and remained silent for a long time before saying, “It seems like you’re really a different demon. Okay, I, Ulthane, owe you one. Next time, if we can meet again, I’ll help you do what I can!”
“Deal!” Roy nodded expressionlessly and continued walking forward with Julia.
After Roy passed by Ulthane, his mouth could not help but arch into a smile.
It worked…
