Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 877: Oh my god, Nero hit his dad!
This is an extremely dangerous mission that requires someone to go deep into the core area of ​​the magic tree, but it is also their only hope at the moment.

"I'll go there myself!"

Nero stood up resolutely, his eyes full of determination and resoluteness.

As the captain, he must shoulder this responsibility and lead the team to victory.

Under the cover of the deputy captain and other members, Nero headed towards the roots of the magic tree alone.

In the dim and twisted underground world, Nero walked on the rugged road made of rotten branches and twisted rocks. Each step was accompanied by an unstable creaking sound under his feet. It was the ancient forest telling the vicissitudes of time and the horror of the demon world.

All around, the roars and whispers of demons intertwined into an ominous symphony. They either lurked in the shadows or appeared openly, trying to block the progress of this brave warrior.

“…Oh my god, this smells.”

Nero looked around and grumbled quietly.

“The smell of a garbage dump…”

Nero muttered to himself once again. This was not only a disgust for the surroundings, but also a deep understanding of the nature of the demon world.

This pungent smell, like a mixture of rotten meat and despair, made people feel cold, but it also aroused an even stronger fighting spirit deep in his heart.

He knew that only by passing through this filthy land could he face the devil who was trying to subvert the world.

As the heart-shaking roar that seemed to be able to tear apart the soul suddenly sounded, the surrounding space seemed to be distorted by an invisible force. The earth trembled, dust flew, and a suffocating feeling of oppression filled the air.

This power comes from beneath the abyss, from the revival of an ancient and powerful being - the Demon King. It not only awakens the dormant fear, but also heralds the coming of a new catastrophe.

Nero clenched his teeth. Although he was afraid, he was more excited and looking forward to the upcoming battle.

When Luther assigned them the task, he said that the devil had resurrected, but he didn't know which devil it was. Nero volunteered to take on the task, but he didn't expect it to be so dangerous.

"The Demon King must be a very powerful demon, right?"

Nero pondered in his heart that the unknown made him nervous and excited.

He longed to fight such a strong man to prove his own strength, and he also hoped to take this opportunity to completely eliminate this threat to the world.

For him, the past battles were just warm-ups; the real challenge had just begun.

After a long journey and battle, Nero finally arrived at the root of the magic tree. A throne made of twisted roots and vines stood tall, and on it sat a huge and hideous humanoid monster - the Demon King Yurizen.

His body was tightly wrapped in dense root-like tentacles, as if he was a monster growing from deep in the earth. Those tentacles were like black cloaks, swaying slowly behind him, adding a bit of mystery and terror to him.

Yurizen's head was covered by a thick layer of tree roots, revealing only four eyes that were flickering with faint light. They were like deep cosmic black holes that could swallow all light and hope.

His big mouth revealed sharp fangs that seemed to be able to tear steel easily; and his claws were like sharp blades, flashing with cold light, ready to give the enemy a fatal blow at any time. Even more shocking was that Yurizen's arms were covered with red blood vessels, wriggling like a living thing, and the at least eleven round holes on his body that glowed blue were actually his extra eyes, which kept flashing and monitoring everything around him.

The blood that continuously flows from the throne is the source of his power and also the witness of the loss of countless innocent lives.

"Are you the demon king?"

Nero looked at the other person and said.

"You will regret being born a useless human being. You will see the most terrible nightmare. I will give you despair and death."

Demon Lord Yuri on the throne once said.

The power of the devil comes from human blood. The blood of countless humans is converted into magic power through the Evil Tree of Reverse Kabbalah, and is continuously supplied to Yurizen on the throne by the vines. It is in this way that Yurizen, who was separated from his body not long ago, quickly accumulated tremendous power.

Fighting broke out immediately.

Yurizen's power comes from the evil tree of Anti-Kabbalah. The blood of countless humans gathered into magic power, which was continuously transmitted to him through the vines.

This means that he hardly needs to move during battle, and can control everything just by sitting on the throne.

The floating red crystal in front of him was transformed from the Yama Sword, which could automatically block attacks for its owner. Without breaking through this shield, it would be impossible to touch Yurizen's body. However, the crystal would suddenly extend countless spikes and cause heavy damage to unsuspecting challengers.

As Nero pressed on step by step, Yuri finally stopped making threats verbally and began to show his true strength.

Moves borrowed from other demons in Red Grave City became more powerful and deadly in Yurizen's hands.

Artemis's laser bullet was like a ray of death, cutting through the darkness and heading straight for Nero; Goliath's fireball was like a falling meteorite, carrying destructive power; Geryon's time-deceleration barrier made Nero seem to be in another world, and time became slow and heavy.

He also has his own original attack methods.

He can summon blue pillars of fire from the ground to trap his enemies in a sea of ​​fire; he can also release powerful shock waves to knock his enemies far away; even more terrifying is that he can manipulate those root-like tentacles to pierce the enemy's body like a living thing, bringing endless pain and despair.

The third generation Scarlet Queen, this sword that has accompanied him through countless battles is now firmly held in his hand, with the tip of the sword deeply inserted into the ground, as if announcing the arrival of a challenger to this cursed land.

As Nero's low spell sounded, the sword of the Scarlet Queen began to vibrate violently, and streams of hot red flames gushed out from the blade, accompanied by a low roar, drawing gorgeous tracks in the night sky.

"Taste this!" Nero roared, all the muscles in his body tensed, like an arrow about to leave a bow, he suddenly burst out at an astonishing speed and rushed straight towards the devil.

His movements were swift and powerful, and every jump and every swing of the sword contained enough power to shake the mountains. The Crimson Queen seemed to have life in his hands, spinning and swinging with his movements, releasing the power of destruction.

However, the demon king did not panic.

On the contrary, a sneer appeared on the corner of its mouth, and the red crystals surrounding its body acted like a shield, easily blocking Nero's fierce attack.
