Chapter 251 Inquire
"boom!"
The sky was filled with lightning, which gathered at the tip of the spear in the hand of the seven-star demon.
The dazzling lightning tore through the surrounding space cracks.
Then, he threw the spear in his hand directly at Ceres and others.
"Thunder Spear!"
Facing the attack of this seven-star demon, Ceres' mind moved, and in an instant, the movements of about three hundred people in the magic battle formation were completely synchronized with Ceres, and they pointed with one finger.
"boom!"
A blue beam shot out from the magic battle formation, colliding with the incoming thunder spear, causing a huge roar.
Ceres kept moving, controlling the other three hundred people in the magic battle formation and slashing out a beam of sword light.
"Chichichi..."
"Ah ah ah..."
Without any surprise, at least several hundred of the legion soldiers who followed the Seven-Star Demon and wanted to rush over to attack Ceres and others had their bodies cut off by Ceres' sword.
Although, with the abilities of god-level strongmen, such injuries do not have a big impact on them, and they can recover by consuming some divine power.
However, in this battle, these wounded soldiers were also considered "killed in action."
After all, if it was a real fight, Ceres’ attack would not be to cut them in half, but to chop off their heads directly, exposing their godhood.
However, the casualties of a few hundred people are nothing to a legion of more than 10,000 people.
"Boom boom boom..."
After approaching Ceres and the others, thousands of attacks came with brilliant light.
Although most of these intensive attacks are from three- and four-star demons, their large numbers can pose a certain threat to high-star demons.
"Raging waves!"
Facing these attacks, Ceres shouted loudly, and immediately, the divine power of more than 700 people in the magic circle synchronized with Ceres, suddenly activating the first effect of Ceres' magic battle formation.
"Boom boom boom..."
In an instant, a massive torrent of divine power erupted from the magic battle formation, sweeping away everything in front like the sea and sky upside down.
These thousands of attacks did not create any ripples in the huge waves and were eventually submerged by them.
This wave finally rushed through the bottom of the opposing legion and bombarded into the thick fog beside the Nether Mountains, destroying the mountains within a range of tens of thousands of meters.
In the legion led by the Seven-Star Demon, the soldiers above the waves also tacitly withdrew from the battle.
After seeing this scene, everyone began to think about the outcome of this battle.
Ceres can fully control the magic battle formation and use the power of the magic battle formation to enhance his attack range.
Although in terms of attack and defense power, the strength that Ceres' magic battle formation can exert is similar to that of the seven-star demon, the attack range of the magic battle formation is about ten times that of an ordinary seven-star demon.
Moreover, because he can fully control the magic battle formation, the magic battle formation controlled by Ceres is no weaker than the Seven-Star Demon in terms of attack, defense, and speed.
With this one magic battle formation alone, the damage that Ceres and his men could cause was equivalent to that of five seven-star demons.
Sure enough, in just a few breaths, the legion led by the Seven-Star Demon was completely defeated by Ceres and others.
The captain of the Seven-Star Demon Brigade, even with all his strength, was still helpless against the magic battle formation.
However, it is impossible for Ceres and others to defeat the Seven-Star Demon.
Finally, after a fierce battle that lasted for half a day, Oaks personally came out to decide the winner.
Because all the members of the Seven Star Demon Captain's team were killed, while Ceres and others were not injured or killed, therefore, Ceres's captaincy promotion battle was passed this time.
The captain of the Seven-Star Demon Brigade was also convinced by this.
Compared to the previous captain who was knocked unconscious by Figueroa, he was able to maintain the face of the Seven-Star Demons.
Here, the captain of the Lord God's Legion obviously selectively forgot that his opponent was just a team with a full squadron.
However, it can also be seen from here how strong Figueroa's talent in magic battle formations is.
If Figueroa had the strength of Ceres, then the magic battle formation army formed by Figueroa would definitely have the ability to hurt Lord Shura.
Although Ceres can fully control the magic battle formation, the nodes of the magic battle formation can only have an additional 300 people at most, reaching a full squadron of 1,000 people.
Any further up would be beyond Ceres' control.
A fully staffed squadron might allow Ceres's magic battle formation to be considered strong among the Seven-Star Demons, but it is still far from the level of Lord Shura.
"Ceres, from now on, you are the captain of the Fifth Squadron."
Inside the tent, Oaks personally pinned the badge representing the captain of the Lord God's Legion on Ceres' chest and patted him on the shoulder.
"I hope you will continue to work hard and dedicate your strength to the Lord God."
"Yes, Lord Oaks."
After bowing to Oaks, Ceres hesitated.
This was the first time he had seen Oaks at such a close distance. Should he ask Oaks about Locke now?
"Hmm? Ceres, do you have anything else to say?"
Seeing Ceres standing here without leaving the tent, Oaks looked up and asked curiously.
"Is such that……"
Thinking of Mira's hard training in the mist in order to meet Locke, Ceres sighed and said directly to Oaks: "Lord Oaks, I want to ask you about someone."
"Oh? Who do you want to inquire about?"
"I'd like to make it clear in advance that although my strength is not bad and I know some strong people from various planes, there are still many strong people I don't know."
"If I don't know the person you are talking about, I hope you won't be disappointed."
"Ah."
Ceres nodded. Even if someone knew him but didn't want to tell him, there was nothing he could do.
"Lord Oaks, the person I want to ask you about is called Locke."
"puff……"
As soon as Ceres finished speaking, the tea in Oaks' mouth that he had not yet swallowed was immediately spat out.
"Wait, wait, Ceres, what's the name of the person you said you wanted to inquire about?"
"Call Locke, Lord Oaks."
Seeing Oaks like this, Ceres was delighted.
It seems that Lord Oaks definitely knows Locke.
Moreover, the relationship between the two parties should be unusual.
Otherwise, Oaks would not have behaved like this after hearing Locke's name.
Oaks stared at Ceres with suspicion. Is the Locke this guy was talking about the Lord Locke he knew?
"Wait a minute, I do know a man named Locke, but I don't know if the Locke I know is the same person as the Locke you are talking about." Ceres was shocked, as he expected.
In front of the Lord God, Locke's status is higher than that of Ox, the commander of the Lord God's army.
Otherwise, Lord Oaks, who possesses the strength of the Lord of Shura Palace, would not have called Locke "Lord Locke" every time.
As for whether the Locke that Lord Oaks mentioned was the Lord Locke that Lord Oaks knew, Ceres had no doubt about it.
After all, this can allow the Lord God to help find relatives who have been dead for more than a million years from the world of the dead and restore their memories.
"I don't know much about Locke after he came to the underworld."
"However, after arriving in the underworld, a descendant of the Locke family and I met Locke's younger brother based on our blood connection."
Hearing what Ceres said, Oaks shook his head.
After following Lord Locke for so many years, he had never heard that Lord Locke had any younger brother.
"According to what Locke's brother said, we know that Locke is now living on the hillside of Nether Mountain."
"What? Living on the hillside of Nether Mountain?"
Oaks had just rejected in his heart that the Locke mentioned by Ceres was not Lord Locke, but after hearing what Ceres said, he was no longer sure.
Most people only know that there is a main god on the Nether Mountain, but no one can really determine where the main god lives.
Of course, there is no need to think about this question. Since he is the main god, he must live on the top of the Netherworld Mountain.
Besides his family, perhaps the only people who knew that Lord Locke lived on the hillside of Nether Mountain were Ryan Yanfeng and others.
Since Ceres knew that Lord Locke lived on the hillside of Nether Mountain, Oaks knew that the Locke that Ceres knew might really be Lord Locke.
"Uh, Ceres, right?"
"You should stay in the Lord God's Army for now and don't run around."
"I will go to Nether Mountain to meet Lord Locke and ask him if he is the one you are talking about."
"As for whether to meet you, it depends on what Lord Locke wants."
"Well, please, Lord Oaks."
"By the way, I am with a junior of Locke named Mira Locke."
"If you see Locke, please tell Lord Oaks about it."
"Just say that the child wanted to see him..."
……
“I didn’t expect that Lord Locke actually has a younger generation.”
After Ceres left the tent, Oaks was also very surprised.
From the information that Ceres said, Oaks could basically guess that the Locke they were talking about must be the Lord Locke he knew.
I just don't know why they have been here for so many years, but Lord Locke hasn't let them come to meet him yet.
Does he not want to see him, or is Lord Locke in seclusion again?
Since he met Lord Locke, Oaks has never seen Lord Locke rest.
Either they are practicing, or they are studying how to practice.
Even though Lord Locke has become the almighty God, he is still full of passion for cultivation.
Perhaps, it is because I lack the same passion for cultivation as Lord Locke that I ended up stopping here?
Shaking his head, Oaks didn't think any more about it.
The most important thing now is to go to Nether Mountain and tell Lord Locke about this matter.
Regardless of whether Lord Locke already knew that Ceres and Mira Locke came to the underworld to look for him, as Lord Locke's subordinates, since they knew the news about Lord Locke's descendants, it would be unreasonable not to tell Lord Locke.
Therefore, Oaks did not stay here for long. After giving a few instructions to his subordinates, he turned into a long green rainbow and flew towards the Nether Mountain.
After crossing the thick fog, he came to the foot of the Nether Mountain which was blocked by thunder chains. Oxs did not stop. A white armor emerged from his body and he rushed directly towards the Nether Mountain.
"Crackling..."
In the gap of the thunder chain, a purple barrier was broken by Oaks, and a large amount of lightning bombarded Oaks.
However, these lightning bolts were finally completely blocked by the main material defense artifact on Oaks' body and did not cause more damage to Oaks.
At the top of the Nether Mountain, the Lord of Death sensed that someone had passed through the thunder chains he had laid down, and his spiritual sense radiated. After seeing that it was Oxs, he withdrew his spiritual sense.
No matter how strong the thunder chains surrounding Nether Mountain are, they are only the power emitted by a main artifact.
It can kill the Seven-Star Demon instantly and severely injure the Lord of Shura Mansion, but it is useless to the Lord of Shura Mansion who possesses the main artifact of material defense and the great perfection of will power.
After all, this is just a barrier-type main artifact refined by the Lord of Death to prevent some unpredictable people from entering the Nether Mountain to disturb himself and Locke. It is not to kill all the gods who come to the Nether Mountain.
Oaks landed in front of the mist halfway up Nether Mountain and said, "Lord Locke, Oaks requests to see you."
"Oh? Oaks is here?"
Oaks' voice awakened Locke from his practice.
Although Locke was a little surprised why Oaks came to him at this time, he didn't let Oaks wait any longer.
After all, under normal circumstances, Oaks would not bother him without his summons.
Once Oaks comes, it must be something very important.
With a thought, the fog outside the water palace instantly dispersed and a passage opened up.
And Locke's avatar of the Lord of Destiny left his original body and went to the hall of the Water Palace to wait for Oaks.
"Ox has met Lord Locke."
Oaks entered the water palace hall through the floating bridge and knelt on one knee to salute Locke.
"Get up, Oaks."
"You suddenly came to see me this time. Is there something important?"
"Could it be that there are clues to those three wonders of heaven and earth?"
"Uh……"
Hearing Locke's question, Oaks smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, Lord Locke."
"Up to now, among the seven divine planes and the four supreme planes, none of the forces under our command have collected any information about these three rare objects of heaven and earth."
"Is it?"
Hearing what Oaks said, Locke frowned slightly.
It shouldn't be.
Given Hong Meng's preference for the Lord of Death, the Supreme God's Mirror for the first Supreme God mission was delivered directly to the Lord of Death. So these three Supreme God tokens should not be difficult to find.
Why, after so many years, has Oaks not received any news about these three rare treasures of heaven and earth?
Could it be that because the Lord of Death gave the Supreme Divine Mirror to himself, Hong Meng was afraid that he would miss the Lord of Death's things, so he made it more difficult for himself?
