Molas felt a heavy burden on her shoulders. She called Bandra over and sent a large number of Demon King soldiers to Heracles City to investigate.

She needed to figure out how many strong people there were in Hercules City.

“We must thoroughly investigate the cities in the east, west, north, and south of the city. We must find out how many ambushes they have set up.”

“If they want to bait us, they must pay the price.”

“Mhm, where’s His Majesty?”

Bandra pointed to a small room in front of him, “He’s moping in bed. No one dares to disturb him.”

Moras frowned, “His Majesty is throwing a tantrum again. Let him stay inside!”

“How long has it been?”

Bandra thought for a moment, “It’s been a day. He’s not eating or drinking. Aren’t we going too far? His Majesty the Demon King is just not smart. In fact, he’s still very strong. As long as you don’t provoke him, he’s a good person.”

Suddenly, Molas’s expression changed. “Wait, it hasn’t moved for a day? This isn’t His Majesty’s character. Could it be that he ran away?”

Their expressions turned ugly, “I don’t think I saw Serena today either. The two of them have always been inseparable.”

It would be in line with His Majesty’s personality if he really ran away.

The Demon King had always been very rebellious in his actions.

Sure enough, when they knocked on the door and entered, they only saw an energy body that dissipated as soon as they touched it.

Molas stomped her foot, “Chase.”

At this moment, Chen Deng and Serena were already walking on the streets of Hercules City. The people on both sides of the streets were sparse, and it was obvious that they had been dispersed.

In an open-air tavern, two elders were sitting there drinking alone, tasting the delicacies of the world.

A knight in golden armor stood at the side, very respectful.

Chen Deng walked over casually. He was carrying a Pekinese in his arms. It looked very strange, “It’s so boring for two people to drink. Can you add me in?”

One of the old men waved his hand, “Sit.”

“You are Chen Deng? Or Saar?”

Chen Deng chuckled, “Who do you think I am?”

The old man thought for a moment, “I don’t think it’s Saar. That silly child will definitely fight and kill when he comes up. He won’t be like you, willing to sit here and drink with us.”

Chen Deng picked up his wine cup and took two sips. His eyes lit up, “It’s still Moon Drunken. Your Holiness is really in a good mood.”

“Hey, isn’t this Miss Kyla? Why didn’t you greet an old acquaintance?”

“Come, sit together. Why are you standing at the side?”

Kyla frowned, “Humph, what right does a fallen person have to sit with His Holiness?”

Chen Deng’s face instantly turned sour, “I don’t like what you’re saying. Everyone is born equal. There’s no such thing as a degenerate or a noble person.”

“I practice dark magic, but I’m kind-hearted. I’ve never killed the innocent. Moreover, if it weren’t for me, a few of you would have died long ago. How could you have the right to stand here and bark?”

Kyla looked at him with disdain, “Everyone is born equal. Why do you have a maid?”

Chen Deng laughed out loud, “Serena is talented, but she has awakened a dark type of talent. If we let her wander around the kingdom, she will be purified by the Holy Church sooner or later.”

“I took her in because I saved her. Moreover, the so-called maid is only in name. I have never asked her to do anything.”

The Holy Pope looked at the black-haired man before him and felt that this guy was different from everyone he had seen before.

“You’re very interesting, but there are some things that I think you’re wrong about. No one is born equal. Those born from generals will definitely be generals in the future. Those born from slaves can only be slaves.”

Chen Deng shook his head, “Times change. One day, when people awaken, everyone will naturally know that no one is born a king, and no one is born a slave.”

“Whether it’s the Pope or the King, they’re just identities given by this era. Ignoring these identities, this person is not much nobler than a slave.”

“Alright, I’m not here to argue with you about equality. I’m here for two things. First, take Quinn away. He’s a good kid and has never killed the innocent.”

“The second thing is to hand this woman over to me. She’s my enemy. She has to pay the price.”

Kyla’s expression was gruesome, “How dare you, Chen Deng. Don’t even think about going anywhere today. You’re going to die today.”

Seeing her wave her hand, a large number of Royal Knights appeared near the street. Each of them had a crossbow and aimed at Chen Deng.

The old man beside the Pope also stood up with a calm expression, “I am the Holy Archbishop, Xue You. Demon King, you are too arrogant.”

A golden staff appeared out of thin air in his hand. It was inlaid with a Holy Light Crystal, making him look extremely solemn.

Chen Deng carefully sized up his appearance, “Pfft, he’s wearing a monkey hat. It seems like he’s not spouting nonsense after seeing it today.”

The Archbishop frowned, “What do you mean?”

Chen Deng laughed out loud, “It means that when a monkey wears human clothes, he thinks he’s human. Don’t you think it’s funny?”

The Sacred High Priestess was instantly enraged, “Arrogant! Today, we must suppress you in the name of God!”

The Holy Pope’s face twitched. He took a closer look at the Archbishop and found that he was actually quite decent.

“Cough cough, Demon King, I don’t know if you’re arrogant or something else, but this place has already been set up with an inescapable net. You’re not still thinking of escaping, are you? Have you forgotten how we suppressed you back then and caused you to lose your life?”

Chen Deng smiled, “Actually, I don’t have anything to be proud of. It’s just that I’m filled with anger and the demonic sword in my hand.”

Chen Deng extended his hand into the air, and a dark space appeared.

A terrifying demonic sword was slowly drawn out by him.

The terrifying dark power emitted by the demonic sword made everyone present feel an incomparable pressure.

The Holy Pope gently knocked on the table, “I see. I was still thinking about how you suppressed the Demon King Saar. I have to say, you are not only ruthless to others, but also ruthless to yourself.”

“But if this is your honor guard, I want to remind you that you’re underestimating me.”

Chen Deng shook his head helplessly, “Oh Satan from hell, the Demon God from the darkness, please grant me the power of the dead. I, the black-haired Chen Deng, resurrected the dead.”

One after another, stone coffins broke out of the ground, and powerful undead walked out one after another.

The Holy Pope was expressionless, but he was finally a little angry, “You shouldn’t have done that. It would be best if you hadn’t used death magic in front of me. It’s a taboo for all living beings. It’s a challenge to God’s right.”

“Kill him.”
