Chapter 219: Ch 219: Attack (3)
After getting rid of the demon gods, Rein started to attack the nearby gathering where the demons were staying. But after destroying three suck gatherings, Rein was unable to find anymore spots where the demons were staying. It looked like Alcusus had evacuated all the demons to a different place when he started attacking.
Rein was still continuously getting attacked by the will of the world. Whoever Rein left the area where the vision spots or the spatial rift were destroyed, he was immediately attacked. It was very clear that the will of the world was extremely dissatisfied with Rein and was ready to do anything to bring him down. It even tried to self-destruct the area where Rein was a few times.
But fortunately Rein was able to stop all those attacks. Not only that but after searching for the vision points over and over again, Rein had become so proficient in this that he was now able to find all the vision points of an area in less than a few minutes. So he was now able to stop the spatial rift from attacking in a very short time.
That way Rein went deeper and deeper into the spatial rift while searching the area where he was very thoroughly. On his way he did encounter a few demons who were there for mostly scouting and killed all of them without any mercy. This was a time for war and blood needed to flow.
Among the scouts there were a few who were not able to maintain their courage any longer and started to spill all the beans. They told Rein\'s group about the plans they had met to get rid of him.
The two demon gods who had just attacked them were basically here as a sacrifice. They were sent here to Rein only to stall him for some time while the other demons were going to be using that extra time to run away.
Then Rein was told about the reason why Alcusus was not sending anyone else to stop their progress. It turned out that he had managed to discover a rate artifact and that artifact gave Alcusus a lot of confidence that he became existed again to kill Rein. That artifact must be extremely powerful if Alcusus was so sure of killing Rein after getting his hands on this.
After questioning the other people who were caught, Rein was even able to find out what that artifact was. According to the person who told Rein about it, It was not a secret for most of the demons who were not living under a rock all these times. So to gather more good will, he immediately told Rein about the treasure.
This was a race protecting treasure that could protect one whole race without much trouble. But it was useless for any other race. For this particular treasure, it was a castle which would become stronger and stronger the more of his targets of protection were inside it.
Currently Alcusus had brought all the demon race alongside him to this castle so the defense and offence options of the castle were perfectly in its maxed out state.
...
Rein understood from this information that Alcusus was ready for his arrival and had made plans to counter him. He was going to stay in that castle for as long as he needed and would wait for Rein to come to him. Then when Rein would attack that castle item, he would use the power of the whole race to crush Rein.
This was a very good plan and it would also succeed if it was Rein from before. With just his cultivation and two skills, he probably would have a lot of trouble dealing with that artifact especially when the spatial rift was also trying to get rid of him.
But after he made sure that his modified rain stones were working properly here, Rein was not worried about anything at all. Even in the worst case situation, he would be able to use the rain stone to break through any problems that he was facing with just pure brute force.
So even after knowing that Alcusus had made plans to stop him, it did not change what Rein needed to do and he continued his toward where the castle was.
...
Obviously Rein also told Lu Shi about this mysterious treasure and asked them to not go near it in any situation. The strongest card that Lu Shi\'s team had was actually Colinde but Rein was not sure if she would be able to utilise her demon slaying boost against it or not.
As demons were using that item, Rein would not be surprised if her skill would take effect against it. But at the same time he would also not be surprised if her skill did not consider the attacking castle as a demon and did not give her the boost. So fighting against the castle would be very dangerous for Colinde with that uncertainty.
Lu Shi understood that and promised Rein that she would strictly keep herself busy following the plan and would stay hidden for the time being. Everything was going well for the time being so there was no reason for her or her teammates to take unnecessary risks.
...
It did not take Rein much longer to reach close to the stronghold where the demons were waiting for him. He was able to see the large white Castle at the distance and from what Rein was able to feel, this thing was definitely powerful. Most probably this was also another help that the will of the world had provided the demons to increase their chance of defeating Rein.
Rein wanted to keep this grand item intact to do some research on it but at the same time he did not want to take extra risks with something unknown like this. So after thinking about it for some time, he decided to destroy it just to be safe.
So Rein started to sprint toward the castle at full speed. Obviously the castle already knew that Rein was about to arrive here and were ready and waiting for him because the will of the spatial rift had informed them beforehand.
So as soon as he appeared, many cannons and other powerful attacks were thrown at him. Rein endured all those attacks and arrived in front of the castle and then he crushed the modified rain stone in his hands.
Now what was going to be the outcome of this battle ?
