Custom Made Demon King Chapter 177 - Fire in the Hole!

Chapter 177 Fire in the Hole!
Although the makers were all powerful warriors, their true strength laid not in their combat power but their forging ability!
In fact, when Roy saw Ulthane and recognized him as the guy from the Darksiders 1 game, he became a little concerned.
If he did not remember wrongly, he would help War reforge the Armageddon Blade a hundred years later when War returned to the human world!
The Armageddon Blade was a powerful holy sword in this world! And Ulthane was actually the creator of this holy sword. He had forged this divine weapon! In the beginning, Heaven held this holy sword. However, when Abaddon secretly plotted to start the End War, he had used this holy sword to break the powerful force of the seven seals contract. After breaking six of the seven seals, the Armageddon Blade shattered. Finally, War retrieved the fragments of the sword and got Ulthane to reforge it to restore the original power of the holy sword.
It was through this Armageddon Blade that War could kill Abaddon, who had transformed into the Destroyer…
Since this holy sword could slay a demon king, what else could it be if not a divine weapon? If sparing Ulthane’s life could be exchanged for a favor from this divine artifact craftsman, why would Roy not do it?
If Roy was thick-skinned enough and asked Ulthane to help him reforge Frostmourne, he would probably not reject this favor, right? Even if Frostmourne could not reach the power of the Armageddon Blade in the end, Roy would make a huge profit as long as there was a big improvement!
Of course, this favor had not been easy to obtain. The key was that Roy had to be able to defeat Ulthane, and Roy’s ability just happened to be able to do this. As Ulthane had said, he hated everything that could lower the temperature. If Roy used flame abilities like other demons, Ulthane, a ten-thousand-year-old blacksmith who had been dealing with fire for a long time, might not have been the one to lose…
Roy achieved his goal. He struck Ulthane with a stick and then gave him a date to eat. However, Ulthane could not help but appreciate it because Roy indeed had the ability to kill him at that time, but he had not done so.
Even though Ulthane was released from his frozen state, the muscles all over his body were still very stiff. But under his powerful recovery, the necrotic cells in his body were rapidly changing. Of course, he would not be able to recover from this weak state for a while, and it was naturally impossible for him to fight. Fortunately, this frost demon did not seem to have the intention of attacking the human survivors. This did not conflict with the purpose of Ulthane’s trip, so he made a straightforward exchange.
Although he said ‘next time we meet’, Roy was not in a hurry. He knew that it was impossible for Ulthane to bring all the tools he used for forging with him. If he really wanted to find him to upgrade Frostmourne, he would probably have to follow him to the alternate space where the makers lived. Currently, Ulthane and his people were searching for human survivors and would not leave the human world in a short time.
Therefore, Roy could rest at ease to capture the Seven Deadly Sins first…
About two days later, Roy and Julia found another one of Seven Deadly Sins. This time, it was ‘Gluttony’ of the Seven Deadly Sins!
He was a ferocious-looking octopus-like monster. Most of his body was in the ground, and only his head was exposed. The shape of his head was like an octopus, with tentacles constantly shaking around its neck. Gluttony was much stronger than Avarice. Just as Roy had guessed, as time passed, the Seven Deadly Sins would become more powerful after obtaining the same power as the Deadly Sin they represented. At present, they were still at the high-rank demon stage, but it was hard to say what would happen if time dragged on a little longer.
Roy did not know how long this ‘long’ would be. After all, high-rank demons needed to accumulate a lot of power to become demon lords. But in any case, it was always right to hurry up.
Roy did not let Julia participate in this battle against Gluttony but instead had her hide far away.
During the battle, Roy discovered that the tentacles around Gluttony’s neck would spit out poisonous venom, and his mouth, which was full of sharp teeth like a meat grinder, would desperately try to bite Roy. This guy was indeed worthy of being Gluttony. He really ate everything. After trying to bite Roy, and Roy flashing away, he would often end up biting dirt, rocks, steel, or even the venom that he spat out and swallowed everything without hesitation.
Moreover, this guy could even move underground. He could devour the hard rocks underground to dig tunnels. He could even eat the ice wall Roy created. The Magic Power Virus, the Desolate Virus, and the corrosive effect of the dark power contained in the ice were of little use against him.
In order to prevent him from digging into the ground, escaping, and wasting time, Roy had been showing weakness in battle, but he had not allowed Gluttony to bite him. This made Gluttony unable to satisfy his strong appetite, so he opened his mouth to suck in the air, attempting to pull Roy over and eat him with the powerful pulling force.
However, what Roy was waiting for was this moment. In midair, he suddenly took out a tactical nuclear bomb from the system space. After installing the black technology detonator created by the system on it, he threw the missile like a javelin at the huge mouth of Gluttony below.
“Fire in the hole!” Roy shouted as he threw it.
Unfortunately, Gluttony did not understand what this meant and swallowed the missile in a daze. Because the missile was too long, he even raised his neck and swallowed again.
While watching the missile enter Gluttony’s stomach, Roy quickly used ‘Ice Block’!
Thick black ice stacked on Roy’s body layer by layer, turning him into a huge round ice coffin!
The next second, a dazzling light appeared in Gluttony’s mouth, and then the light rapidly expanded and exploded in his stomach…
Boom! As Gluttony’s body was torn apart, a huge shock wave swept out. The intense heat scoured the land in all directions, and invisible radiation penetrated through everything at the speed of light. Looking from afar in the sky, you would see a ball of sun-like light emerging from the surface of the city, and then a mushroom cloud slowly rising.
Half of the city was gone in an instant, but Roy, who was in the center of the explosion, was fine!
The yield of tactical nuclear bombs was small. The defense Roy created was the important reason why he was safe and sound. Not only did the thick black ice offset the high-temperature impact from the explosion, but even the explosion’s fatal radiation was mostly absorbed by the Desolate Virus in the solid ice!
After removing the protection of Ice Block, Roy landed on the ground and looked at the razed ground around him. He moved his limbs and checked his body before shouting, “Awesome!”
It could be said that Roy’s ability completely restrained this small-scale nuclear explosion. Precisely because of this, he dared to throw out a tactical nuclear bomb as a grenade at close range…
Hmm, speaking of using a tactical nuclear bomb as a grenade, he was probably the only one…
Unlike the time when he killed Envy, Gluttony’s soul was completely exposed because his physical body had thoroughly disintegrated and turned into ashes. And it was impossible for his soul to hide.
Roy took out the Talisman of Sin and shot a ray of light at Gluttony’s soul, pulling it into the talisman.
He had also obtained the soul of Gluttony, one of the Seven Deadly Sins…
