With a slight sound, the shadow camouflage mask slowly sank into the magma and was swallowed by the heat, but there was no sign of melting.
The artifact symbolizes the authority of the gods and cannot be easily destroyed.
In the crater, the demon lord is still sleeping.
The corners of Enzo's lips raised slightly. The plan was going very well so far. With a thought, he turned himself into a shadow to hide himself, and at the same time turned his vision to a shadow crow.
"There!" Enzo's eyes flashed.
Below, on the desolate land swept by yellow sand, shadows like tides were surging rapidly, and they arrived around the floating islands in a moment.
"Hmph! Are you hiding?"
On the same spot, Lyles, the God of Shadows, revealed his figure, with a sneer on his face and said, "No matter where you are, the mark on the shadow disguise can never be removed!"
After saying that, Lyles turned into a shadow and stepped onto the floating islands.
"Very good, I took the bait!"
In the hidden corner, the corner of Enzo's lips raised. Since Lyles, the God of Shadows, has followed the mark on the shadow disguise, he has undoubtedly fallen into Enzo's plan.
Rumble!
When the God of Shadows stepped onto the outskirts of the Floating Islands, there was a sudden violent noise in the largest crater on the main island, and the Balor Balrog bathing in the magma seemed to feel something.
As a demon lord of the fourth-order life form level, even in a sleeping state, Balor Balrog still maintains absolute control over the floating islands.
Perhaps Enzo's arrival cannot revive him, but when a god of the same level steps into the floating island, it is impossible for the Balor Balrog not to feel threatened.
That's why Enzo had such a plan.
Take advantage of the hatred between the demon lord and the gods to deal with both enemies at the same time, and ultimately reap the full benefits for yourself.
However, there is only one flaw in this plan.
That is, when the God of Shadows comes to the main island and finds his own artifact in the volcano where the demon lord sleeps, he will inevitably understand that he has fallen into Enzo's trap.
And how will Lyles react then?
While Enzo was thinking, in the sight of Shadow Crow, the God of Shadows was already approaching the main island.
The next moment, a violent sound came.
In the crater, billowing heat waves spread in all directions. After sensing the threat, the sleeping Balo Balrog slowly woke up and let out a furious roar.
"Who is it? You have stepped into my territory!"
The demon lord, who was like a lava giant, stood up from the crater, raised his thick arms, and blood-like magma flowed to the ground.
All around, the little Balrogs and the Blade Balrogs, after noticing the Lord's resurgence, all moved away from the area in fear.
Demons are chaotic and cruel creatures. In their concept, there is not much emotion at all. Even demons of the same race are just food and slaves to the demon lord.
call!
Balor Balor stood up, with the ferocious fleshy wings on his back spread out, and his bones were clearly visible. He twisted his huge head and looked around, and suddenly stretched out his hand to grab a sharp-edged Balrog.
"Lord, no!!"
Amidst the horrified screams of the sharp-edged Balrog, the demon lord used his palms to force it and easily crushed it into a pulp. The blood was mixed with the minced meat and was thrown directly into his mouth, making a creepy chewing sound.
A powerful creature stepped into the territory and awakened the threatened demon lord. In order to face the next battle, Balor Balrog must recover as soon as possible.
Therefore, the little Balrogs and the sharp-edged Balrogs on the floating island have become the best food.
The Balor Fire Demon roared.
Then, he opened his bloody mouth, and the invisible attraction was like a whirlpool. In the surrounding area, all the little Balrogs screamed and flew into the huge mouth, becoming the food for Balor Balor to restore his strength.
"As expected of the demon lord who is famous for his chaos and cruelty!" In the corner, Enzo's eyes flashed, feeling repulsed by the behavior of the Balor Demon.
One of the reasons why intelligent creatures are called civilization is that they have systems that they will not destroy easily.
There are many evil people among humans, even fallen wizards who massacre mortals, but few people will eat their own kind.
At this time, the Balor Balrog, who had devoured a large number of small Balrogs, suddenly stopped moving and raised his head to look forward.
Not far away, a shadow floated.
Like some kind of viscous liquid, the shadow twisted and turned into a human form. Lyles appeared on the spot and looked around.
"Balo Balrog!?"
When Lyles saw the Balor Balrog standing on top of the volcano, his pupils suddenly shrank and his face instantly darkened.
"Damn wizard!"
Lyles gritted his teeth. He could feel the shadow camouflage of the artifact in the crater where the Balor Balrog was, but Enzo was nowhere to be seen here.
Obviously, this is all the wizard's plan!
He has thrown the shadow disguise into the crater and used it to lure himself here, hoping to provoke a war between himself and the Balor Balrog.
In the multiverse, wizard civilization has always been known for its wisdom, but in the eyes of gods, this so-called wisdom is also equivalent to trickery and cunning!
"Phew! The smell of gods!"
The huge Balor Fire Demon stood in the crater, looking down at Lyles and making a low roar.
"You dare to step into my territory, do you want to start a war?"
Lyles's heart moved.
Abyss demons are known for their chaos, but after reaching the level of demon lords, they also have a certain degree of self-control. The Balor Fire Demon in front of them did not attack when they saw them for the first time, which shows that this is a person who can communicate. Demon Lord.
"Hello, Your Excellency, the powerful Lord of the Abyss."
Lyles's eyes flashed, and after thinking for a moment, he said, "I didn't mean to step into your territory. I was just tempted by a cunning wizard. Please forgive me for any offense!"
The Balor Fire Demon spurted two flames from its nose.
"If that's the case, then get out of here! Gods are not welcome in my territory!" Balor Fire Demon roared.
Lyles frowned, suppressed the anger in his heart, took a deep breath, and said: "Since the Lord of the Abyss does not want others to enter the territory, then I will leave immediately."
"But before that, I have something that I left here. Please allow me to get it back! As long as you don't object, I can leave immediately!"
After realizing that he had fallen into Enzo's trap, Lyles decided to at least get back his shadow disguise and restore his strength to its best state.
"No! Leave immediately!"
The Balor Fire Demon shook his head and refused, ": Gods are not welcome in my territory. If you don't want to provoke a war, you must leave here immediately!"
Lyles's eyes turned cold and his face darkened.
The tidal shadows under his feet surged up, affecting the surrounding environment. Retrieving his artifact was Lyles's bottom line. If Balor Balrog couldn't agree to this, then Lyles could only do it anyway. Started a war with the other party.
After all, the artifact is Lyles' authority!
When the shadow was disguised in Enzo's hands, Lyles was confident that he could get it back at any time, but if it fell into the hands of Balor Balrog, it would be difficult to get it back.
"Your Excellency, Lord of the Abyss, are you determined not to return my things?" Lyles said in a cold tone as he issued an ultimatum.
Abyss demons have always been known for their violence. They will only compromise when faced with an absolutely powerful person, who must be at least one level higher than themselves.
As for beings of the same level trying to compromise, it is almost impossible.
Because of his familiarity with the Abyss Demon, Lyles no longer had much hope in his heart. He made up his mind to take back the shadow disguise and leave immediately.
However, at this time, Balor Fire Demon's reaction was a bit beyond Lyles' expectations.
After feeling the shadow power released by Lyles, Balor Balrog hesitated for a moment, then reluctantly nodded.
"Okay, you can take what belongs to you, but you must leave immediately afterwards, and you cannot stay in my territory for a second!" Balor Fire Demon made the final compromise.
In the corner, Enzo frowned slightly.
He was also very surprised by the reaction of Balor Balrog. Most demonic creatures had difficulty communicating. It was hard to imagine that Balor Balrog, as a lord, would compromise with the God of Shadows.
"Is it because of the injury?"
Enzo's eyes flashed, and he looked at the hideous wound on the chest of Balo Balo.
Not far away, Lyles was also stunned.
Then, he sneered slightly in his heart. It seemed that these so-called abyss demons were not as strong as imagined. They would also make some compromises when facing the gods.
However, Lyles remained calm on the surface.
He nodded slightly and said softly: "Thank you Lord Abyss Lord, I can guarantee that I will leave immediately after getting my belongings back."
"Then hurry up!" Balo Yanmo waved his hand impatiently.
Lyles stopped talking. After feeling the specific location of the shadow disguise, it turned into a shadow and appeared on the edge of the crater.
In the corner, Enzo frowned.
If he cannot provoke a war between the Balor Fire Demon and the God of Shadows, then for him, it will undoubtedly mean that his plan has failed. Not only will he lose an artifact in vain, but he will also allow the God of Shadows to regain his strength.
"No, we can't let it go like this!" Enzo made up his mind, planning to provoke a conflict between the Balor Fire Demon and the God of Shadows even if he took some risks.
But at this moment.
At the edge of the crater, Lyles felt the specific location of the shadow disguise, and when he was about to take it away, a strange smile suddenly appeared on the face of Balor Balrog.
The next moment, the volcano erupts in vain!
The scorching hot magma rose into the sky, and waves of heat that were enough to burn people rolled in. Then, streams of magma fell from the sky like meteors.
"Damn! You!!"
Lyles was startled, and suddenly found that he was surrounded by flames, and he quickly wanted to turn into a shadow and leave the place.
However, at this time, the Balor Fire Demon roared again, holding a thick and huge stick in his raised arm, and swung it towards the God of Shadows.
Bang!
Lyles was caught off guard and flew out after being hit by the devil's giant stick. The shadow power gathered around him shattered, and there were vague signs of dissipation.
"Damn it! You despicable devil!"
On the spot, Lyles barely managed to steady his figure and let out an angry roar.
"Idiot! Do you think I will compromise?"
The Balor Fire Demon sneered, then jumped out of the crater and let out an ear-splitting roar that shook the entire floating island.
In an instant, all the Balrog creatures in the entire floating archipelago were recruited by the lord and gathered towards this area.
"Shadow Realm!"
Lyles's face changed, and he saw the murderous intention of the Balor Demon against him, and immediately activated the Shadow God Realm, intending to draw the enemy into his home field.
It's a pity that the Balor Fire Demon will not rise easily.
I saw the demon lord swinging the giant stick in his hand, disrupting the surrounding shadows, and then roared, the volcano behind him erupted again, and a stream of magma turned into a fire dragon and attacked towards the God of Shadows.
Bang!
The magma fire dragon hit Lyles, but turned into a shadow and shattered. It turned out that it was just a fake body. The true body of the God of Shadows appeared in the air, and a round shadow appeared in front of him.
"Go to hell! Despicable devil!"
Lyles gritted his teeth. At this time, he could see that from the beginning, the Barlow Demon had not compromised, but was preparing to attack him secretly.
It’s just that Lyles’s impression of the devils of the abyss is too stereotyped, thinking that only devils are good at tricks, and that devils are all crazy fools.
In the sky, elliptical shadows turn into mirrors.
Shadow arrows shot out like raindrops downwards, and the entire floating island was enveloped within the attack range. One after another, the little Balrogs were pierced by the shadow arrows.
Roar!
The Balor Balrog roared and waved his giant stick, knocking away the surrounding shadow arrows. However, there were too many shadow arrows, and there were many arrows that fell on the body of the Balor Balrog.
With a skin that is harder than steel, shadow arrows cannot penetrate flesh and blood, but they turn into invisible divine power and corrode the Balor Balrog.
"Humph! Idiot!" Lyles sneered.
After resisting for a while, the Balor Fire Demon also noticed something unusual. His huge size made him invincible in melee combat, but at this time he became the target of the God of Shadows.
After seeing this, Balor Fire Demon immediately took action.
His huge body shrank rapidly, and soon became the size of a human being, but his aura did not weaken at all. The ferocious wings behind him vibrated, and the airflow blew away the shadow arrows attacking around him.
Immediately afterwards, the Balor Flame Demon roared.
The strong sound wave shattered the shadow mirror in mid-air, and even Lyles behind him groaned, steadied his body, and waved his hand to set off a huge shadow wave again, surging towards the human-sized Balor Balrog.
And go.
Now that the Balor Fire Demon has shrunk, range attacks are obviously meaningless.
The small Balrogs and the sharp-edged Balrogs on the surrounding floating islands, under the summons of the Demon Lord, gathered into an army of demons and gathered towards Lyles, but for this kind of war at the level of fourth-order life forms, cannon fodder can play a role
The effect is very weak, even to the point of being negligible. The God of Shadows just waved his hand casually and killed a large number of small Balrogs.
