Chapter 168 - Cup of Fate, Successful Revenge
Chapter 168: Cup of Fate, Successful Revenge
At the south of Beast World, in a scorching desert, Vincent led everyone by foot through the sand dunes.
“I didn’t expect the desert here to be so magical. The scorching aura has the effect of tempering psionic power!” said Nabil excitedly.
Nabil’s face was full of sweat.
Vincent smiled and said, “This is the Holy Land of the beast cultivation. It’s a rare opportunity for us. Everyone must seize it! Is everyone tired? Do you want to stop and take a rest?”
“No! As long as we keep moving, the psionic power in our bodies will constantly be tempered. This is also a way of cultivation!” said Swire stubbornly.
The rest of the people also agreed with Swire’s decision!
Everyone could see Vincent’s strength. Although he was not considered powerful in Beast World, in the human world, a king-class superpowered user was already the top fighting strength of the Human Race!
Currently, there were only four kings in the Human Race, and the strongest Dragon King of the Human Race had reached the king-class. In other words, Vincent had the capital to establish a country in the Human Race too!
Angelina and Avril silently watched Vincent’s back. The determination in their eyes was stronger than the others.
That was because they were born stubborn. If they wanted to stand by Vincent’s side, they could just be a vase!
After seeing that everyone was full of fighting spirit, Vincent felt very gratified and continued to lead the way.
While no one was paying attention, Vincent took out a strangely shaped wine cup from his pocket. It was the treasure that had been left behind in Beast World along with one of Gajero’s arms.
Vincent still remembered the cup. It was like a bottomless pit that devoured all his World Cleansing Fire in the tunnel.
In addition to that, before Flying Snow Castle was turned into ruins, the cup had also devoured one of Gajero’s arms!
That was not an ordinary arm, but an arm formed from pure energy in the form of an energy body. It occupied one-tenth of Gajero’s body. This meant that it was one-tenth of Gajero’s energy!
“If only I could make it spit out Gajero’s energy! System, can you make this thing listen to me?” asked Vincent.
“Ding! Begin scanning the designated target. Please wait a moment!”
The system’s voice was heard. After a while, detailed information about the cup appeared before Vincent’s eyes.
Name: Cup of Augustus
Origin: After the death of the former high priest of the Demon Race, Augustus, Gajero refined his heart and all the demons loyal to the high priest into a divine artifact.
Level: S-Class special equipment
Attribute 1: Able to devour all psionic energy and convert it into the purest psionic energy.
Attribute 2: Able to strip the soul of the target. The target must be of a lower level than the user.
Attribute 3: Able to convert psionic energy into the power of a Black Hole. However, it cannot be reversed.
Attribute 4: Able to issue commands to all low-level demons. All low-level demons are not allowed to resist!
Current status: Has swallowed the arm of Gajero. Can choose to convert it into energy or continue refining the cup of Augustus!
Vincent looked at the attributes of the Cup of Augustus and could not help but be slightly speechless.
The wine cup was really too powerful. Any of its attributes were enough to defy the heavens, and it even carried four divine skills at the same time. It was truly worthy of being a treasure that Gajero carried around with him!
Moreover, the final smelting ability made Vincent’s eyes light up in an instant.
The cup that was originally made by Gajero after smelting many demons had another hidden attribute. It could continue to smelt more demons!
Vincent held the Cup of Augustus in front of his eyes and said with great anticipation, “Smelting!”
The Cup of Augustus instantly emitted a deep purple light, swaying in the air like a flame.
The surface of the cup soon started to melt and finally turned into a hand holding half a heart!
“This is really a clear reflection of the history of the Demon Race!”
Vincent could not help but sigh.
The hand on the cup came from Gajero, and the heart came from Augustus, the high priest whom he had killed. It just so happened to show the bloody incidents of the Demon Race killing each other.
As long as anyone who obtained the cup discovered its hidden ability, they would choose to continue refining the demons. It was equivalent to Gajero revealing a magical ability that could completely exterminate the demons.
A piece of equipment that was born from disaster could completely lead the demons to the end. This was probably the fate of the demons!
“Cup of Augustus, Cup of Fate!”
Vincent could not help but sigh.
“Ding! The equipment renaming was successful and is automatically bound to the host’s exclusive item!”
The system notification sounded again.
Vincent lowered his head to look at the hand again, and a description immediately popped up in front of his eyes!
Name: Cup of Fate
Level: X-Class special equipment
Equipment Skill 1: Devour
Equipment Skill 2: Soul Peeling
Equipment Skill 3: Black Hole Energy Conversion
Equipment Skill 4: Order of the Demon Race
Equipment Skill 5: Alchemy Furnace
Vincent looked at the Cup of Fate that had been given a new name and skill name. He shouted excitedly, “It’s too powerful!”
“Eh? Vincent, what are you talking about?”
The people behind him asked in confusion.
Vincent turned around and smiled at them, saying, “It’s nothing. I just found a way to deal with the demons!”
Everyone looked at Vincent curiously, expecting him to continue.
The Human Race was suffering from the Black Hole riot, and the root of the Black Hole riot had a lot to do with Gajero, who led the Demon Race. If there was a way to severely wound the demons, it would be a great thing for the Human Race and the races in the Black Hole!
Just as Vincent was about to introduce the Cup of Fate to everyone, black shadows suddenly appeared on the sand dune in front of them. Each of them held a long knife in their hands. They looked at Vincent and the others with murderous intent!
“Demon Race!”
Chris and the others saw that the people who came were not like the Beast Race with the head of a beast or the body of a human. They were instead similar to the Human Race, with only a layer of purple mist around their bodies. Chris and the others immediately thought of the description of the Demon Race that they had heard from the Beast Race. They could not help but remind Vincent loudly.
Vincent turned his head, and his gaze instantly turned cold.
Back then, when Gajero had defeated the Bear King, other than supporting the fox tribe and accepting the snow wolf tribe’s betrayal, he had only left behind a small team of demons to guard Beast World.
The team of demons had not participated in the management of the Beast Race. Instead, they had been stationed near the Black Hole of the Beast Race all year round, intercepting and killing the beasts that were trying to escape into the Black Hole.
Back then, the village that was exterminated in order to protect Vincent was massacred by those demons!
“It’s them!”
Vincent sighed coldly. At the same time, he placed the Cup of Fate in his left hand and pulled out the Purgatory Blade in his right hand. He glared angrily at the demons on the hill.
At that moment, the team of demons on the hill was also staring at Vincent and the others. They roared furiously, “Humans! They are indeed humans! You have destroyed Lord Gajero’s descending passage. You deserve to die!”
What happened in Flying Snow Castle had long spread across the entire continent along with the Bear King’s army, and the demons had ruled over the beasts for such a long time. Therefore, there were definitely many beasts who were loyal to them. The news had been sent to the demons even before the arrival of Vincent and his team.
At this time, when these demons saw their enemies, their killing intent immediately turned into furious psionic power. Their own aura kept rising and soon reached a level that made Vincent and the others scared!
The twenty-plus demons in front of them were all around level 25 creatures. Even among the Beast Race, they were experts that were rarely seen in a hundred years. Vincent and the others were less of a match for them!
“Vincent, we’re here to help you!”
Chris and the others felt the terrifying aura coming from the hill. They gritted their teeth and wanted to rush up to help Vincent.
“All of you, don’t go forward. I want to settle some grudges with them alone!”
Vincent shouted to stop the others from supporting him. Then, each of them rushed to the top of the hill with a knife.
More than twenty demons looked at Vincent who was gradually approaching. Their faces were full of disdain. They did not even raise the weapons in their hands.
“A mere human, you overestimate yourself!”
The leader of the demons sneered and mocked Vincent.
However, Vincent had already rushed to the top of the sand dune and raised the Cup of Fate in his left hand.
“Order, kneel!”
Vincent was extremely nervous and shouted with an angry expression.
He was not sure whether the demon soldiers in front of him could be considered low-level demons or whether he could successfully use the Cup of Fate.
Nevertheless, what happened next proved that Vincent had succeeded!
More than twenty demons, with an average strength of level 25 creatures, actually knelt down on the sand dune towards Vincent, who was only a level eight creature. Their faces were full of fear and grief.
“This, this is Lord Gajero’s Holy Grail. How can it be in your hands?”
“No, no, you are a human. You cannot use this cup!”
All the demons knew the cup’s magic. They were afraid of what they might encounter in the future, so they begged Vincent.
At the same time, Chris and the others had also arrived at the sand dune. After seeing the demons kneeling towards Vincent, they instantly fell into a daze. They could not believe what they were seeing.
Vincent silently looked at the demons in front of him. The faces of the villagers who had been massacred by them kept flashing in his mind. He said in a judgmental tone, “The demons invaded all the races, and massacred all the lives at will. Death is not a pity! You can end it yourselves!”
When Chris and the others heard this, they could not help but shout that Vincent had gone crazy. He had actually ordered a group of level 25 demons to commit suicide. They were not fools so how could they do it?
In the next second, all the demons kneeling on the ground raised their weapons and thrust them into their chests with force. Each of them had a ferocious look on their faces as they fiercely rotated their weapons. Only when their flesh and blood were torn apart did they fall heavily onto the ground. They died unwillingly.
Chris and the others were so shocked that they could not speak. However, they could not help but sigh in their hearts. What kind of changes did Vincent go through? Why did he become so terrifying?
Vincent did not bother to explain. He immediately raised the Cup of Fate and said to the corpses on the ground, “Refine the demons!”
Whoosh!
All the demon corpses were swept away and kept in the Cup of Fate. They turned into a faint layer of purple gas and refined the Cup of Fate.
