Hearing Nero's question, Bainiya explained his confusion in a very proud tone: "That's because these demons feel the aura of the demon king! They are welcoming the new ruler!"
Dante was silent, of course he knew who the new ruler Bainiya was referring to was the demon lord Osiris in front of him.
Even the demon king like Yurizen has been killed. Who else can be called the king of the demon world now except Osiris?
Mundus, the original ruler of the demon world, has been sealed, so the demon lord is the strongest demon that can be born in this demon world. Although Roy is flying high in the sky on the back of Rafalo, the demons on the ground are
If you can feel his strength, you will naturally follow him involuntarily.
During this running process, some demons fell behind, but then more demons joined in. Hundreds of thousands or even nearly a million demons ran wantonly on the ground, and a huge, black demon gradually formed on the ground.
Looking at the wave of demons and the dancing demons below, even Dante and the others broke out in cold sweat.
It is unimaginable what kind of catastrophic consequences would be caused if so many demons broke through the space barrier and ran into the human world.
Now Dante and the others can only pray that the demon Osiris really has no interest in the human world here as he said. Otherwise, it will be a big trouble. I am afraid that it will really take their father Sparta to take action.
Confronted...
In fact, the reason why Dante and the others followed him was because if their father Sparta was really still alive, they could join forces with the old man to fight against the demon Osiris.
Just as the three of them were thinking wildly, they suddenly heard Roy ask Cerberus: "Cerberus, do you know where in the devil world we are heading?"
"Your Majesty Osiris!" Hearing Roy's call, Cerberus stepped forward, lay down in front of Roy and said: "The devil world is very big, and I don't know the specific environment of each place, but
I just took a look and felt that if we keep going in this direction, it might be pointing to Thesby Prison!"
"Oh? Prison?" Roy asked, "What is this place?"
"Thesbe Prison is actually just a name? It's not a real prison! Under normal circumstances, demons rarely imprison their enemies, they just eat them directly..." Cerberus explained: "Then
So it is called like this? Is it because that is the lair of the whipping demon? This kind of whipping demon is not a demon species from the abyss? It is a mutated demon race here in the demon world. These whipping demons have a very strong sadistic character. They do not hunt food.
They would often torture their prey until they died before eating it. It was precisely because of this character of the Flagellant that when His Majesty Mundus was in power, he would hand over some rebels to him.
How to deal with the whipping demons? So over time, the lair of the whipping devils was called a prison? Thesby Prison? It means 'prison of endless torture'..."
"Huh? So maybe Sparta was thrown into this place and imprisoned?" Roy pondered: "Isn't this easy to find?"
"Your Majesty, maybe it's not necessarily true!" Cerberus said: "In fact, Thesbe Prison is near the Demon King's City..."
"Demon King's City? Mundus' Demon King's City?" Roy asked.
"Yes!" Cerberus nodded: "Be careful. If you want to force your way in to rescue Sparta? It is very likely that you will alert the demons in the Demon King's City. Although Sparta sealed His Majesty Mundus back then? But
Over the years, the power of the seal has been weakening. His Majesty Mundus once broke through the seal and came out. It was that time that he launched a war of revenge against Sparta..."
Dante and the others listened carefully. What Cerberus said immediately brought back their memories. If it is correct, the time when Mundus broke through the seal to seek revenge was exactly what happened decades ago.
The time when Ding's family fell apart, it was also after that time that Dante's mother Eva died and their father Sparda also disappeared.
Perhaps it was at that time that Sparta was captured...
"Are the guards of Demon King's Castle strong?" Dante suddenly interjected and asked.
"They are all legions composed of high-level demons!" Cerberus said: "But this is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is that trying to rescue Sparta will most likely lead to Mundus awakening."
"No, that's not right!" Dante shook his head and said, "Mundus is not in the Demon King's City, is he? Many years ago, Trish and I entered Mundus' Demon Palace on the island where saints and demons blend.
Tracey and I worked together to seal him once again! (Devil May Cry 1 plot)"
"Hmph, do you think what you encountered is really His Majesty Mundus's Demon Palace? Is what you sealed really His Majesty Mundus?" All three heads of Cerberus snorted coldly.
Said: "Even your father Sparta paid a huge price when he sealed His Majesty Mundus. Why do you think you can seal His Majesty Mundus's body again?"
"That should be a clone, or a projection, right?" Roy took up the topic and said: "Although I also think that if Mundus is really a demon king, it will be sealed by a demon lord like Sparta.
It's a strange thing, but as Cerberus said, he should be very powerful. With your current strength, you can't defeat me, let alone the true form of Mundus! So, what you encountered
It's very possible that it's just a clone of Mundus."
"...Maybe!" Dante was silent for a moment and could only nod.
Roy turned around and asked Cerberus: "You have been in the devil world for so long, have you ever met Mundus himself?"
"No!" Cerberus shook his head and said: "In fact, let alone me, there are very few people in the entire demon world who have seen the true form of His Majesty Mundus, and Sparta is just one of them... In the legend of the demon world
, His Majesty Mundus suddenly appeared in the demon world. It is said that he is a white demon who conquered the entire demon world with extremely terrifying power! But he rarely appears in front of demons, he is very mysterious!"
"White devil?" Roy looked at Bainiya with some confusion and asked: "Among the devils, which race of devils is white?"
"No!" Bainiya shook her head simply: "I have never heard of it. Even if it is mutated, demons have never had white skin. White is an ominous color for demons. Such demons
Once born, it will be killed by other demons the moment it hatches!"
"It's strange that the demons in the devil world can still tolerate Mundus ruling here?" Roy asked Cerberus.
Cerberus felt a little confused when he heard this, and said: "I...I don't know, but the demons here think it is normal to be ruled by Mundus..."
"There is something wrong with this Mundus!" Roy said categorically: "Whether he is a demon lord or a demon king, I have never heard of a ruler who would not appear in front of the demons, but would just hide behind the scenes to control the demons..."
"Honey, what do you think will happen?" Bainiya asked Roy.
"...It's hard to tell now!" Roy shook his head and asked Cerberus: "What I find most strange is where are the angels in this world? Since there are such a huge number of demons, it makes no sense.
Will the angels show up here?"
"Angel? It's a long-ago word..." Cerberus thought, turned his head and glanced at Julie, and said: "Actually, I don't know exactly what is going on. For three thousand years,
When I came to the demon world from the abyss, I had never seen any angels. At that time, I felt quite happy. Without the obstruction of angels, this was a real paradise for demons..."
Julie interjected and asked: "Cerberus, before the connection with the abyss was severed, the demon king Samael came here once. Do you know about this?"
"Your Majesty Samael?" Cerberus was immediately in awe, but shook his head and said: "No, I don't know, I have never felt such a powerful aura coming, maybe it was a longer time ago,
I need to ask the demons who have been in the demon world for a longer time."
Julie and Roy looked at each other.
Samael never came? How is this possible? It’s impossible for Julie to have all her memories of her birth wrong, right?
Julie remembers her age very clearly. She is over two thousand years old. Even if there is a difference in the time flow rate between the Darksiders world and the Devil May Cry world, the deviation will not be too big. In other words, the time should be between two thousand and three thousand years.
between.
She remembered that after Samael came to this world, he found that a certain demon king was already ruling here, so he retreated. Normally, Samael would definitely attract the attention of the demons when he appeared, but right now
However, Erberus said that he had never felt the arrival of a demon king-level demon at all, and also said that at that time, angels would no longer be seen in the world... Then where did the angel soul used by Samael come from when he made Julie?
?
Unless...unless Samael hid his aura at that time? Then why did he hide it? Did he and Mundus meet?
I just feel that many situations are in a fog, and I can't see clearly at all. Even if Cerberus is here, I can't solve them for the time being.
Perhaps, only by meeting Sparta, or meeting Mundus himself, can we know...
"Is Mundus still in the seal?" Roy asked Cerberus: "This is a situation that must be confirmed."
"Yes!" Cerberus confirmed: "When Sparta fought with His Majesty Mundus, I don't know what kind of method was used to seal His Majesty Mundus. Now, although the power of the seal has weakened, but
But it has not really disappeared, otherwise, if His Majesty Mundus really escapes from trouble, the first thing he will do is to instruct the demon army to completely destroy the entire human world!"
"Well, as long as he is still sealed, there is no need to be afraid of him!" Roy nodded, he now has such confidence.
While several people were exchanging words, Rafalo kept flying forward. At this time, he could already see from a distance a fiery red rift valley on the dark land, and that was where Cerberus was.
