Chapter 343: Chapter 343 Sixth Apostle, Black Plague Deregi!

As the figure in the poisonous mist vortex became clearer, an extremely evil and terrifying aura grew stronger.

Within moments, it had inflated beyond the King-level!

Gorandis’s pupils contracted as he nervously said, “King-level! It broke through to the King-level!”

Bain looked horrified: “Even the Saint-level Yuris is so troublesome, how strong must a true King-level demon be?”

The Half-Elf maiden Celia was also tense, staring firmly over there.

After all, this was a King-level master, and a King-level from the Demon Race at that!

Before coming with Li Haotian, Celia never imagined that they would encounter a King-level enemy just from investigating a plague.

One must know that on the Arad Continent, King-level is almost the pinnacle of strength!

Only Li Haotian remained relatively calm, his gaze fixed tightly on the massive poisonous mist vortex.

Unlike the trepidation of Bain and the others, there was even a hint of doubt in Li Haotian’s eyes.

“Is it just King-level?”

Li Haotian felt something was off.

Judging from the Demon Envoys he had encountered, the power of a Demon Envoy should be at least above the Lord-level.

While King-level is strong, it doesn’t seem worthy of a Demon Envoy’s status.

For instance, even the slaves or demon commanders under the command of the Eleventh Apostle Ozma are King-level.

Outside, Aganzo had already retreated back into the War Fortress, vigilantly watching the massive poisonous mist vortex not far away.

Li Haotian’s controlled Terminator had also returned, holding the fused Magnetic Railgun, awaiting Li Haotian’s command.

Suddenly, a strong wave of air burst forth, and the poisonous mist vortex shattered instantly, revealing a massive figure to everyone.

Li Haotian’s pupils contracted slightly, muttering, “Is this… the Demon Envoy Deregi?”

It was a massive dark purple monster, long and narrow, over ten meters in length.

It appeared similar to a wild boar, yet also like a giant rat, with a pointed snout and fangs, red eyes staring coldly in their direction.

The bristles on its back seemed composed of smoke, resembling flames from the Netherworld, restlessly flickering.

What concerned everyone was the continuous dripping of dark purple liquid from this terrifying creature.

As soon as this liquid hit the ground, it made a “sizzling” sound, seeming to contain strong toxicity and corrosiveness.

Gorandis’ eyes were heavy as he quietly said, “The liquid on this guy feels exactly like the virus infecting those plagued individuals. It’s indeed the source of this plague!”

Xilan said in a deep voice, “This creature is full of viruses and plagues. Although the aura is at a mid-level King, even slightly weaker than me and Aganzo, if it truly fights, it might be more troublesome than an experienced King-level.”

Aganzo nodded slightly, “Indeed, unless they’re a Light attribute or a King-level master with the Power of Nature.”

“Otherwise, once infected by its viruses and plagues, it can easily lead to weakening.”

“In such a case, it won’t be long before they’re doomed.”

Gorandis hesitated slightly and spoke, “How about I try? With the Holy Attribute protecting me, its plagues and viruses shouldn’t affect me.”

Xilan gave her a glance, then shook his head, “No, you’re only at the Saint Realm, too weak compared to it.”

Li Haotian calmly said, “The plagues and viruses carried on it can only pollute biological entities, but machines don’t get infections.”

“Let me handle it. Without the plague, it’s just a King-level after all!”

Xilan and Aganzo couldn’t help but twitch at the corners of their mouths, remaining silent.

It’s just a King-level… that’s all…

On the Arad Continent, the pinnacle of power has degraded to being described with “that’s all” in front of him…?

Li Haotian’s thoughts moved, and the Terminator outside the War Fortress, eyes flashing, suddenly looked up.

A cold mechanical voice emanated from its mouth, “You’re called Deregi? What number Apostle are you in the Demon Realm?”

That dark purple creature, like a mutated wild boar, heard the words, and the red in its eyes fluctuated slightly, a voice full of malevolence sounded, “Interesting, human, you seem to know quite a bit, huh?”

“What, dare to plot against Arad Continent, yet afraid to even state your name?” The mechanical voice was full of mocking tone.

“Roar!”

Deregi seemed enraged by this comment, roaring fiercely, “You insignificant human, dare to be so arrogant!”

“I am the Sixth Apostle of the Demon Realm, the Black Plague Deregi!”

Inside the War Fortress, everyone looked to Li Haotian.

Xilan’s face was grim, “Little brother, you guessed it right, this guy is indeed a Demon Envoy!”

Aganzo’s eyes flashed with worry, “Our Arad Continent, it seems, has caught the attention of those demons again.”

Upon confirming Deregi’s identity, Li Haotian murmured, “Black Plague… It seems this is Deregi’s power attribute.”

“Haha, what a pity, this guy’s plague, however, happens to be restrained by me!”

Outside, after Deregi declared its identity, the malice in its eyes seemed irrepressible, and suddenly it roared, spewing dark purple venom in their direction.

The Terminator flashed and dodged quickly before the venom arrived.

With a “puff” sound, the venom splattered all over the War Fortress.

The sizzling sound of corrosion came from outside, yet it couldn’t touch the people inside.

With the fused War Fortress defensive power, these highly corrosive venoms couldn’t possibly erode through in a short time.

As for viruses in the air, with Celia and Gorandis present, they posed no threat to the group.

After Deregi launched an attack, without pausing at all, its ten-meter-long body leaped up, roaring and pouncing forward.

It swung its claws forward, and a massive dark purple claw shadow shot out, fiercely striking the War Fortress.

A dull “boom” resounded, shaking the ground.

Just then, a muffled cannon sound echoed from the sky.

Magnetic Railgun fired!

Deregi gritted its teeth, a layer of green light quickly enveloping its body.

An air vortex appeared suddenly, violently converging on Deregi’s body.

But the next second, this shot was rebounded, and Deregi was unscathed.

Li Haotian was not surprised, muttering, “As expected, this guy also has the ability to freely switch states, deflecting melee and ranged attacks.”

The next second, the Terminator’s attack arrived with a boom, with its right hand’s liquid metal quietly transformed into the form of a giant sword, slashing down!

The light on Deregi’s body shifted once more, seemingly with no delay.

With a thud, the Terminator’s attack was rebounded by the red light on Deregi’s body, sent flying!

But at the same time, the Magnetic Railgun suspended in the sky fired again, almost simultaneously striking down on the red-lit Deregi.

Boom!

Deregi’s massive body was slammed to the ground by this shot, dust rising!
