Magicless Extra: The Villain’s Survival Method – Chapter 152.2

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝟏𝟓𝟐.2: 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐲 𝐨𝐟 𝐓𝐫𝐮𝐭𝐡 (6)

As all the demons united their efforts in defense, the enemy’s attack finally struck.

Kugugugugung!

Dddddddddd!

The colossal Infinity Shield trembled violently, and the atmosphere vibrated. The bright light illuminating Rome City was akin to creating multiple small suns.

Even the mere exposure to the light caused skin to burn. . . It was practically equivalent to the sun itself. . . If the heat could penetrate the defensive barrier, it was questionable whether flesh could withstand a direct hit.

But the problem was that these attacks were occurring sequentially.

As the size of the sun diminished, another explosion occurred, causing it to expand further. The growing sun then absorbed other smaller suns, unleashing an even more potent force.

【Kugh. . . 】

An immense pressure began to weigh down on Solomon. Another explosion erupted, causing the sun to swell even larger, and cracks started to appear on Solomon’s vaunted Infinity Shield.

【Uaaaaaaaaaa! 】

Solomon let out a roar, expelling more demonic power and pouring it into the defensive barrier. At that moment, a golden beam of light pierced through the sky, striking Solomon and passing through his body.

Crack!

【Kugh! 】

Something golden had instantly pierced his chest. . . Sensing the foul energy spreading from the wound, Solomon turned his gaze forward. There stood a being enveloped in golden lightning, none other than. . .

【The Champion of Jupiter, I see! 】

The champions of these nine gods existed in every world, and they always interfered with their plans. While not all of them had defeated them. . . they consistently delivered unexpected blows at crucial moments, making them a considerable nuisance to Solomon.

Furthermore, Jupiter’s lightning possessed greater power to vanquish evil than the holy power of any other gods. Hence, the previous strike had dealt a significant blow to Solomon. His physical heart had been destroyed by that single attack.

Of course, he could prevent his body from collapsing by using demonic power to create a heart of demonic power. . . but with attacks raining down from above, it was difficult to finely control his demonic power.

【Uaaaaaaaaa! I am Solomon, The Archduke Demon of Truth! 】

Solomon’s brain rapidly processed information, allowing him to perform two tasks simultaneously. First, he began constructing a new heart by drawing upon a portion of his demonic power to replace the lost physical one.

During this process, his concentration wavered slightly, causing a momentary interruption in the demonic power flowing into the Infinity Shield. The consequences were catastrophic.

Kujangchangchang!

Shuaak! Kugugung!

One side of the shield momentarily collapsed, allowing three of the meteor-like objects to fall through. The damage was immense. The sun that had originated from the northeastern part of Rome City erupted into a colossal mushroom cloud.

The mushroom cloud collided with the defensive magic circle midway, and the combined impact from both inside and outside caused the Infinity Shield to crumble in multiple places.

Although there were smaller shields cast by middle and upper-rank demons, they were instantly pierced and shattered upon contact with the meteor-like objects, rendering them futile attempts.

Ultimately, the nuclear warheads that descended through the breached areas engulfed the city, obliterating countless demons.

【Kukukuhahahaha! 】

Solomon stood amidst the ruins of the city, laughing maniacally. His vaunted Army of Truth had been utterly annihilated. The twenty aerial battleships and over 200 chaos tanks had been completely eradicated.

Even the 500,000-strong army had been incinerated and banished back to the chaos world, leaving only around 20,000 high-ranking demons and a few noble-class demons.

【If only I had the Eyes of Truth. . . 】

A few years ago, Cardga had thrown the Eyes of Truth to eliminate a certain individual. However, that individual had absorbed the Eyes of Truth without suffering any harm, resulting in Solomon’s weakened state upon his manifestation in this world.

Naturally, Cardga, who had lost the Eyes of Truth, was confined. Despite his exceptional magical knowledge, which had propelled him to the rank of Earl-class demon in a short time. . . he had been defeated, banished, and his soul wounded. As the one responsible for the loss of the Eyes of Truth, he was imprisoned within the Eternal Library.

All beings who entered the Eternal Library had their knowledge forcibly extracted until their death. This was the most severe punishment for those who sought and coveted truth. The pain of having their knowledge stripped away in real time was excruciating.

【Aaaaagh! 】

At that moment, he noticed enemy forces gathering on the outskirts of Rome City. Among them, he sensed the presence of beings who had attained the level of transcendence.

【The champions and absolute beings of this world have assembled. . . Very well, let us see who is stronger. 】
