The picture displayed in the center of the lightning ball held in Mephisto's hand was exactly the scene where Beria handed the "Ten Thousand Souls Pendant" to Arahant Helin not long ago!
Moreover, it can be seen from the angle of view in the lightning ball that the King of Hatred observes Beria's every move through that high-level holy object.
The King of Lies' layout and plans in the first world are far-sighted and have brought huge disasters and troubles to the entire first world and the Demon Fortress Council.
But what it doesn't know is that while it is still obsessed with invading the world of sanctuary to find a way out for its future, the three demon kings of hell have already broken free from the occupation and plunder of the individual world and have begun to try to defeat other people.
The demon god and demon king gave birth to the only source of all evil in hell.
This is an advantage in the overall situation. No matter how much Beria jumps and jumps, it still fails to escape from this game of chess and its fate of becoming a pawn and victim.
The high-level sacred object "Ten Thousand Souls Pendant" is a hidden move that Mephisto has buried under his nose for a long time. However, this hidden move is not used to deceive it. To be precise, there is not even a chess piece.
The qualifications to let Mephisto go to great lengths to trap him.
In the eyes of the Three Demon Lords, since the disappearance of Andariel, the balance between the major forces in hell has long since disappeared, and Azmodan's demise has accelerated this process.
The three demon gods all saw that a new enemy was secretly devouring them, devouring the original power of Chaos Purgatory.
But the emergence of this new enemy not only did not allow them to put aside their previous grudges and work together, but instead inspired the deepest ambitions in the hearts of all the demon gods.
They are all racing against that opponent for time, hoping that they can swallow up enough power to become the source of all evil in one fell swoop and dominate the entire Chaos Purgatory.
Then, the master will have the opportunity to dig out what is hidden in the dark and devour it, turning himself into the most perfect ancient evil.
This ambition gradually evolved into a competition, until Diavolo tried to use the time difference to devour Baal, and the last fig leaf of this competition was completely torn away.
The three demon gods began to try their best to absorb all the power they could, hoping that one day in the future they would have the opportunity to become the master of purgatory.
In this, every demon has its own little calculation.
Just like Diavolo, the King of Fear, concealed his own secret, Rakanos, the King of Despair, Mephisto also has his own trump card.
It can feel that soon, its other brother, the reckless and powerful Baal, the Lord of Destruction, will begin to try to devour the power of Duriel, the Lord of Pain.
It will not go to compete with Baal for this power, because it knows that in the battle for the source of all evil, its biggest opponent has never been the "second brother" who can do everything recklessly, but is deeply scheming and extremely evil.
The ferocious "third brother" Diavolo, the King of Fear!
In order to deal with this "youngest" "brother" among the three demon gods, the King of Hatred laid a trap on the King of Lies, Beria, a long time ago.
It deliberately neglected to allow Beria to steal the Ten Thousand Souls Pendant, one of the most precious collections in his treasury, and then used the Ten Thousand Souls Pendant to monitor Beria's every move.
It knows that the King of Lies will not be captured no matter what, and will definitely use all its strength to struggle like a living fish on the chopping board.
But the King of Hatred was not prepared to eat this "fish", because this "fish" was prepared for his "good brother" Diavolo...
Mephisto was almost certain that when he was monitoring Belial's every move, Diavolo must also be monitoring it.
This scheming brother had deliberately left his well-hidden right-hand man on the front line of the second world to die in order to take advantage of the time difference between devouring the King of Despair and catch it off guard.
Which one is more difficult to deal with, the seriously injured King of Despair or the King of Lies who will fight tooth and nail, I believe it goes without saying that everyone knows. Therefore, if Mephisto goes to find trouble for Beria step by step, he is very likely to be in trouble.
At the last moment, he was intercepted by the King of Fear, who had just swallowed the King of Despair and gained great strength...
Once things develop to this point, there is no need to fight the final battle.
Diavolo will definitely not miss this opportunity, it will swallow Mephisto and Belial together with their bones!
With the last Baal left, there was naturally no room for struggle.
This is Diablo's conspiracy. Unless it gives up the opportunity to devour Beria and chooses to go directly to trouble Diavolo, with the destruction of the Purgatory Fortress, its plan has actually been more than half successful.
.
But if it deals with Diavolo directly, it would be equivalent to giving Baal an excellent opportunity.
When it and Diavolo come to an end, Baal's power will probably surpass both of them again.
Mephisto would not do such a stupid thing of "sacrifice oneself for others", so faced with this dilemma, it chose to find another way and decided to use the method of "friendly gift" to teach its insidious "brother" a lesson
, what is "Ginger is still spicy when old".
There are many treasures in Mephisto's treasure house, and the Ten Thousand Souls Pendant is one of the more outstanding ones, but it is by no means the best...
It naturally had a profound intention in choosing to "gift" this treasure to Beria.
You must know that the ten thousand souls stored in the Ten Thousand Souls Pendant are of extremely high quality, and few demon kings can resist their gluttonous appetite for these souls.
But Beria is very tolerant, at least until it thinks its plan is completely successful, it can resist the temptation of these souls.
However, once it feels that its plan has been completely successful and that it can rest easy from now on, it has no reason and no possibility of being able to endure the "seduce" of those ten thousand high-quality souls.
As long as Beria swallows this bait...
Thinking of this, a very cold smile appeared on the corner of Mephisto's mouth, as if it had seen the heroic figure of himself leading the entire Chaos Purgatory after becoming the source of all evil...
...
Just as the battle between the three demon gods of hell became more and more dangerous, in the high-level heaven of another world, the relationship between several archangels was also undergoing subtle changes.
Since the inexplicable disappearance of Marcel, the angel of wisdom, Imperius, who has always been a good friend with him, has begun to try every means to find his traces.
For this reason, he even called back his heroic angel legion from the front line, and began to investigate the vast sea of stars surrounding the high-level heaven.
Imperius's explanation for this is that he does not believe that Malthael caused the shadow explosion due to his corruption. He believes that there is an insidious enemy hidden in the darkness of the high heaven, and this enemy is trying to eat away at their sacred power.
.
The basis for his judgment is that no new angel bearing the mark of the Angel of Wisdom has been born in the Crystal Arch until now.
This obviously means that Marcel is probably not dead yet!
