No matter which time he fought against a god-level powerhouse, Thain would benefit a lot.
Even though Thane had activated the Balrog transformation, in the battle with the God of Fire Cricket, Thain was still impacted by the extremely powerful power of the Law of Fire.
The God of Fire Cricket is different from the God of Morning Light in that it does not have so many high-quality believers, nor does it have many temples to take care of.
Jiao Rong Valley is the base camp of the God of Fire Cricket.
If he wants to go deep into it and kill the God of Fire Cricket, the first thing Thane needs to face is hundreds of thousands or millions of densely packed fire crickets and other flaming creatures.
】
A purgatory demon army numbering approximately 200,000 participated in this operation at the same time as Thane.
Like Thain, these demons sneaked quietly to the outskirts of the Jiaorong Valley through the lava sea under the surface.
In addition to nearly twenty demon lords following Thane.
There are also five demon kings who left Purgatory as saints and led a million-strong army on the border of Purgatory to intimidate the Wings of Nature camp.
The demons who followed Thane to the Jiaorong Valley were all the most combat-savvy and bloodthirsty beings.
They crave blood and killing, and enjoy blood food extremely.
Rather than saying that the two hundred thousand purgatory demons came to help Thain, it would be better to say that they came to enjoy blood food.
200,000 versus 1 million!
The powerful purgatory demon directly turned the Jiaorong Valley into a place of ruins and death.
The average height of those fire cricket creatures is less than the calves of demons, so how can they fight?
In the battle with the Fire Cricket God, Thane did not borrow the power of those demon lords.
From beginning to end, only Thane and Yuri participated in the battle.
This is not about bullying the few, but Yuri herself, and it is also a manifestation of Thain's wisdom and strength.
The Flame's golem, which was badly worn in the last battle, has been roughly repaired by Thane.
During his apprenticeship at the Sky City Heavy Industry Laboratory, Thain was not working in vain.
Thain doesn't care about those ordinary model golems that have been damaged for the time being.
In a battle of this level, the help provided by ordinary golems is too little. However, compared to the help provided by Yuri, what really plays a big role in this battle is Thain's new upgrade.
The successful "Evil Eye" mask.
Since it already possesses the very powerful light magic of Penetrating Eye, Thain also improved the name of this mask.
This signifies that not only Thain, but also the magic weapon in Thain's hand is making continuous progress.
The Devil's Eye Mask combines different attribute powers such as sound waves, charm, and light. The mask itself does not have any specific image under the influence of the power of the succubus.
The God of Fire Cricket relied on the many subordinates around him, but after the purgatory demons trampled the Jiaorong Valley into ruins, the pressure brought by the God of Fire Cricket to Thane was actually not as much as that of the God of Morning Light.
But despite this, it took three days in total for Thane to kill the God of Fire Cricket.
The main reason why it took more time than the God of Morning Light is that the God of Fire Cricket is indeed an advanced creature evolved from insects, and its vitality is really tenacious.
Of course, the help provided by the demons in purgatory and the convenience of being able to quickly leave through the molten sea below the Scorched Valley also meant that Thane did not have to be as pressed for time as the God of Dawn when killing the God of Fire Cricket.
When Thane cut off the head of the Fire Cricket God with multiple compound eyes and held it in his hand.
Many purgatory demons in the Jiao Rong Valley paid their respects and obedience to this pure-blooded demon lord who maintained the transformation of the Balrog.
Including the demon lords, they also looked at Thain with complex and respectful eyes.
It is very difficult for even those demigod-level demon lords to kill gods.
Thain's success means that with the help of Yuri and many magic tools, he has the ability to kill top demigods.
In particular, the special mask inlaid with the Godhead of the Morning Light was worn by Thane on his face at the moment, providing unimaginable help in this battle.
The magicians in the wizarding world, with the improvement and increase of their knowledge, can explode with attack power that far exceeds their power level, which is unimaginable for many creatures in the world.
For example, at this time, Thain clearly has not reached the limit of mental power, magic power, and physical strength. Why can he burst out with such strong power? Why can he release so many terrifying magics?
And where do those special sound waves, charming power, and terrifying white beams that are comparable to those released by a demigod-level demon lord come from? All demons with the ability to think for themselves can't help but be confused.
Thane must be grateful to the Spider Queen. Without her, Thain would not have come to the special world of Faerûn and achieved a growth rate that far exceeded that in the wizarding world.
Thain must also thank the Succubus Queen. Without her full support in the purgatory space, those high-level experimental materials and precious specimens would definitely not be easily obtained by Thain.
Holding the body and godhead of the Fire Cricket God in his hands, Thane had a premonition that a more profound truth was beckoning to him.
…
After returning to the purgatory space, Thane once again entered a state of deep retreat and experimental research just like last time.
In this battle, Thane shocked and amazed the 200,000 demon legions. At the same time, he also suffered a lot of damage, but outsiders didn't see much of it.
Although Thain's body suffered extremely serious damage from the erosion of the law of fire, due to Thain's own body of fire demon and his strong physique.
Therefore, the level of injuries was not as intense as the last battle with the God of Morning Light.
However, other losses are also worthy of attention.
In the battle with the Fire Cricket God, the piercing eye mask that performed brilliantly was on the verge of being scrapped after the battle.
The main reason is that the instability of high-level energy bodies such as the Godhead is too strong. Although this Godhead was suppressed by the power of the special rules of Faerun, its inner essence has not changed.
It was the first time that Thain came into contact with this level of magic weapon material, and it was not easy to make the Demon Eye Mask last until the end of the battle.
In addition, the most important joint between the propeller and energy center of Yuri's constructed golem was hit by the fire cricket god's crazy counterattack.
If it weren't for Thain and others' luck, or it could be that the metal shield of the Yuli Flame's golem was thick enough and the most advanced materials from Sky City that were suitable for space fortresses were used.
This time their losses will be much greater.
High risks herald high rewards. Thain, who hurriedly returned to the purgatory space, rushed into the laboratory without even having time to say hello and thank the Succubus Queen and others.
For Thane, the body and divine personality of the Fire Cricket God have more attractions for him than the God of Morning Light.
Even the project of repairing the Demon Eye Mask was postponed indefinitely by Thane due to the temptation to explore the secrets of the Fire Cricket God.
