Chapter 326 Deprivation of Authority (Please order the full version!)
At this time, Russell no longer has the need to retain the divine power.
Under his control, the sacred power from the Gate of Heaven turned into a giant ax that opened up the world, and struck hard at Mephisto's power that was not a physical thing but existed in real life.
As the giant ax fell, Mephisto felt an extreme pain that could not be described in words.
Authority was forcibly taken away.
For Mephisto, it was no less than having his soul torn apart directly.
The only difference is that if the soul is torn apart, Mephisto will most likely die directly.
Being deprived of authority will only cause him to lose relevant authority and be weak for a period of time.
Although the consequences are not particularly serious, it does not mean that Mephisto can bear such losses.
As a hell lord who has lived for tens of thousands of years, this is the first time Mephisto has encountered a crazy guy like Russell.
Whether it is opening the door to heaven in hell, using an island of divine power to accommodate the power of the devil, or now forcibly depriving the lord of hell of his authority.
Nothing in this is ordinary madness.
However, in fact, Russell not only did this, but also accomplished everything.
The giant ax turned into sacred power, carrying a thunderous momentum, forcibly cut off part of Mephisto's hell lord's handle.
Although the power that was cut off was not much, only about one-third, it was still an unbearable and extreme pain for Mephisto.
This kind of pain originating from the origin of the soul cannot be resisted by a strong body.
At this time, Mephisto couldn't help but think of the souls that he had burned with the fire of hell.
He felt like he was now the poor soul burned by hell, experiencing pain that could drive someone completely crazy.
However, unlike the human souls he usually tortured with the fire of hell, the pain of having his authority forcibly taken away did not last long.
In order to ensure that the giant ax transformed from divine power could 100% cut off part of Mephisto's authority, Russell used all the divine power in his body.
This also means that he only has this one chance.
The power that was cut off by the giant axe of divine power quickly came to Russell's ocean of divine power under the pull of the divine power of the sun.
Then, it began to merge with his magical island that had undergone changes.
After incorporating the power of the devil, Russell's island of divine power has turned into a scene of doomsday.
When Mephisto's Hell Lord authority began to merge with the Divine Power Island, his Divine Power Island began its second round of mutations.
First, his island of divine power began to expand rapidly visible to the naked eye.
If his previous divine power island was only ten square kilometers.
So now, his island of divine power begins to expand rapidly towards one hundred square kilometers.
Then, his magical island, which had become grotesque and bizarre, as if the end of the world was about to come, began to undergo more complete changes.
The volcano on the island began to erupt wildly.
A dark thundercloud gathered over the island.
Silver-white lightning struck towards the island like a roaring beast.
The strange plants on the island that had turned red seemed to suddenly have life, and began to grow rapidly, and started to show their teeth and claws like animals.
Finally, the ocean of divine power that originally glowed like a rainbow began to look like blood.
No matter from which angle you look at it, Russell's current divine power island and divine power ocean are very wrong.
In fact, Russell's current state is indeed very wrong.
Although he had just used the island of divine power to forcibly fuse the power of the devil.
But the power of the devil is not divine power after all.
The power of the devil not only polluted his island of divine power, but also polluted his ocean of divine power.
Fortunately, the devil's power he just integrated was not too much, and the pollution on the divine island and divine ocean was still controllable.
But when he began to use the island of divine power mixed with the power of the devil to carry the authority related to hell, the situation developed in the most serious direction.
To put it simply, his current behavior is a bit like pouring oil into an already burning oil pan.
If Mephisto suffered the ultimate pain caused by the forcible deprivation of his authority, then Russell is now experiencing the terrifying sense of tearing caused by the conflict between divine power and authority.
Neither the power of the sun nor the power of the devil will obey the other.
Neither the authority of the sun power nor the authority from hell can tolerate the existence of the other.
So, they started an endless battle using Russell's divine island and divine ocean as the battlefield.
Although Russell is the master of the Divine Power Island, he currently has no way to completely control his Divine Power Island.
Since the Divine Power Island merged with the devil's power, his control over the Divine Power Island has declined at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Now his authority over the Sun Divine Power has begun to loosen, let alone the Divine Power Island.
However, that doesn't mean he can't do anything.
No matter what, this is his magical island.
He cannot prevent the power of the devil and the authority of hell from contaminating the island of divine power, but he can provide enough energy to the island of divine power.
Under normal circumstances, the island of divine power will automatically absorb the energy in the ocean of divine power, thus continuously expanding itself.
But passive absorption is far inferior to conscious and active absorption.
What Russell is doing now is to actively control the island of divine power to absorb the energy in the ocean of divine power.
As for whether the ocean of divine power is now polluted and no longer pure, it is not a question that he should consider at all.
The only thing he needs to consider now is to use his solar power to suppress the demonic power snatched from Mephisto as much as possible, and at the same time use these demonic powers to carry the hell authority stripped from Mephisto.
Use Mephisto's demonic power to carry Mephisto's hellish authority.
I have to say that this is quite a situation that the enemy will create for us without weapons.
Although there is no other way, at this time, this is all Russell can do.
Time passes little by little.
With Russell's active control, the efficiency of the Divine Power Island in absorbing energy from the Divine Power Ocean has been greatly improved.
The power of the sun, which was originally equal to the power of the devil, began to gain the upper hand.
The authority that had begun to loosen was firmly attached to the power of the sun again.
Russell is busy suppressing Mephisto's demonic power and using Mephisto's demonic power to carry the authority of hell.
And dozens of kilometers away, Doom was blocking the devils who tried to intervene in the battle.
These demons who responded to Mephisto's summons came here with only one purpose, which was to assist Mephisto in defeating Russell and obtain the reward given by Mephisto.
As for what kind of reward Mephisto gave.
Very simple.
Mephisto promised them that as long as they help him defeat Russell, all the devils participating in the battle will have a chance to be promoted.
Regardless of whether they are low-level devils or high-level devils, as long as they participate in the war, Mephisto will personally preside over their promotion ceremony.
For the devils in hell, promotion is second only to life.
In order to gain valuable promotion opportunities, these devils would not even mind devouring their own kind to gain that slim chance of promotion.
All along, Mephisto has been deliberately controlling the number of devils in hell, while balancing the rough proportions between various levels of devils.
This is not Mephisto's intention to strictly control the devil's qualities, but it is something that cannot be helped.
Hell is so big. The more high-level devils there are, the greater the consumption of the power of hell will be.
If the will of hell is awake now, it won't be a big problem.
But the problem is, the will of hell is sleeping now.
Otherwise, there is no need for the Will of Hell to choose Mephisto as its spokesperson to help manage Hell.
In order for the will of hell to truly awaken as soon as possible, Mephisto must strictly control the number of high-level devils.
As for lords like him, they are the ones who need to pay more attention to.
Mephisto is not the only devil in hell who has reached the level of lord.
But only he has the title of Lord of Hell.
The reason why he has the title of Lord of Hell is that in addition to being stronger than other lords, there is also a very important point, and the most critical point, that is, he is the spokesperson of the will of hell.
Otherwise, other lords would not recognize him as the only lord of hell.
You know, the devils in hell are a race that is keen on committing the following crimes.
As long as they have a chance, let alone Mephisto, there is nothing these devils dare not do even if they replace the will of hell.
Mephisto once had the idea of replacing the will of hell and making himself the true master of hell.
But after trying it for a while, or in other words, being taught a lesson by the will of hell, he decisively gave up the idea.
It is indeed tempting to become the master of hell, but compared with life, living is better.
Doom knew Russell's plan very well, so at this time he was desperately trying to buy time for Russell.
Although there were many demons coming, and they came from all directions and from different directions, Doom proved with practical actions what it means to fight one against ten thousand.
Doom cast a spell like a clone spell, forming an absolute line of defense around the battlefield where Russell and Mephisto fought.
Although there were many demons attacking, including many high-level demons, Doom and his clones had no intention of giving in.
This journey to hell was originally intended to take back his mother's soul from Mephisto.
If he still refuses to sacrifice his life under such circumstances, he will no longer be the filial son who fought against the hell lord Mephisto in order to free his mother.
Doom is indeed not a good person.
But his respect for his mother is unquestionable.
In order to save his mother's soul, he did not mind sacrificing his own life.
Although Russell is now working hard to suppress the power of the devil in the island of divine power, and doing his best to integrate the power of hell that was taken from Mephisto.
But at this time, he did not lose his sense of the outside world.
He could clearly sense Doom's mad burst of magic power.
Although he didn't know exactly how much magic Doom had mastered, one thing he was sure of was that Doom's magic level was definitely not weak.
To be precise, Doom's magical power is no worse than anyone else on Earth, except for the Ancient One and the future Doctor Strange.
Even compared to Loki and Queen Frigga, Doom's magical strength is not inferior in the slightest.
If it were a fight, Doom could even defeat Loki and Queen Frigga together.
Russell is busy fusing Mephisto's infernal powers.
Doom was desperately trying to buy time for Russell.
At this time, the great devil Paris, who was a hundred kilometers away, was caught in a tangle.
He also felt the strong magic fluctuations emanating from Doom, and knew that Doom was using his own power to fight against the devil who came to assist Mephisto.
Although he doesn't know what stage the battle between Russell and Mephisto is currently at, Paris knows that Russell hasn't lost yet.
After thinking for a moment, the great devil Paris made the most important and craziest decision in his demonic life.
He's going to assist Russell and Doom!
From a racial perspective, he undoubtedly betrayed his own race.
But the great devil Paris didn't think so at all.
Devils are originally a race that respects the strong.
Hell is a world where survival of the fittest is taken to the extreme.
In such a world, the great devil Paris certainly has a strong desire for promotion.
However, he thinks differently from other devils.
He is indeed eager for promotion, but what he wants more now is the promotion opportunity given by Russell.
Russell told him before the battle even started.
As long as he can win, he will help Paris get promoted.
Although Mephisto also gave opportunities for promotion, compared to Russell, Mephisto's sincerity is undoubtedly much less.
More importantly, the great devil Paris' intuition told him that the battle between Russell and Mephisto would most likely end with Russell winning.
This can be seen from the fact that Mephisto has not yet solved Russell and Doom, and even needs to summon other devils for help.
After taking a deep breath for a few seconds, the big devil Paris flew towards Russell and Doom at high speed.
The worst case scenario is that he will become a hellworm!
Bet on it!
The big devil Paris made a decision and decided to assist Russell and Doom in the form of a devil.
One hundred kilometers, whether it is far or close.
When Paris rushed to Doom's defense line, he saw devil corpses everywhere.
At this time, Doom was like a demon god whose magic power would never be exhausted. He was frantically venting the magic power in his body, throwing out magic spells one by one like a Gatling gun.
After sensing Paris' aura, Doom frowned slightly.
He knew that Russell had a good impression of Paris and even promised to give Paris a chance to be promoted after the war.
However, after sensing Paris' aura, his first reaction was that Paris had joined Mephisto's camp and planned to assist Mephisto in attacking them.
Just when he was about to throw a high-level magic to kill Paris, the traitor, Paris's voice came over.
"I'm not here to attack you, I'm here to assist you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Paris waved his bat wings, faced an intermediate devil, and started fighting with him.
