Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The light was so dazzling!
Armageddon descended from the sky and smashed into the Diamond Gates. The intense light that erupted after the collision flooded the entire battlefield like an ocean. The angels and demons near the city gate screamed as they turned into ashes in this light.
After the intense light, what followed was flames spreading toward the entire battlefield and immense tremors that were like a magnitude ten earthquake.
The flames were so fast that they burned the angels who survived. The tremors on the ground directly tore the ground beneath the demons’ feet, and countless cracks extended and devoured the demons who couldn’t stand steadily.
Amid the flames and the earthquake, there was a very crisp sound like glass shattering.
It was the sound of the Diamond Gates. The originally towering Diamond Gates looked so tiny in the face of Roy’s two-kilometer-diameter meteorite. Under the tremendous impact, the Diamond Gates couldn’t even resist for a second before being completely crushed.
The azure crystal at the top of the Diamond Gates turned into countless shattered crystal shards and scattered down. The boulders holding the crystal on both sides broke in the middle and collapsed. During this process, half of the meteorite shattered due to the massive force, and the remaining half, along with countless burning rubble, continued to crash down into the interior of the Silver City.
Without a doubt, this was a catastrophe of the High Heavens. All the angels who witnessed this scene could only watch in a daze, unable to stop it at all. It wasn’t until the last half of the meteorite crashed into the Silver City and set off a huge explosion and fires in the city that they finally reacted and rushed toward the Silver City crazily.
Perhaps they wanted to save something, but it was already too late. The Diamond Gates kept collapsing from top to bottom under the deafening explosion. Thousands of tons of boulders kept falling like rain, and the entire gate finally collapsed with a wail.
The Diamond Gates shattered, and a giant gap appeared on the city wall. The demons reacted and shouted excitedly. As they praised the name of Demon King Osiris, they surged toward the breach like a tide. A few angels wanted to stop them, but they were quickly swallowed by the tide of demons without even causing a splash.
Imperius flew up again and stared at this familiar scene in a daze.
Not long ago, the Diamond Gates had been shattered once. That time, it was by Diablo. When he escaped from the Black Soulstone, he had gathered the power of the seven demon kings, defeated Imperius, and destroyed the Diamond
Gates. This was the first time Imperius had tasted the humiliation of failure.
But he didn’t expect that in just a little more than ten years, the Diamond Gates would shatter again under his nose, and he tasted humiliation again.
Imperius turned his head and looked in Roy’s direction. Anger was devouring his heart, and he was so angry that he was about to explode.
But looking at the endless demon army pouring into the Silver City, he forced himself to calm down because he knew that he had to organize the angels to resist the attack of the demon army.
Therefore, he looked at Roy hatefully before turning around and rushing into the Silver City.
Just a little more, just a little more… Of course, Roy saw this scene. He grinned sinisterly and slowly lowered his raised right hand.
Many angels were born in the High Heavens from the beginning. The High Heavens was their hometown and their obsession. And Imperius’s obsession was even deeper than that of ordinary angels because he was one of the earliest angels. Although failure after failure was disintegrating Imperius’s pride and self-esteem, causing his anger to rise continuously, as long as the High Heavens didn’t collapse completely, the strings of his obsession would not break…
Roy leading a demon army to attack the High Heavens had the same effect as when Diablo attacked the High Heavens last time. But this didn’t mean that he was really stronger than Diablo, who had gathered the power of the seven demon kings. It was because the strategy he had planned from the beginning had taken effect.
During this attack on the High Heavens, he had brought the Archangel of Hope
Auriel into the Void, and the Archangel of Justice Tyrael was imprisoned in a Light Soulstone again. Now, the only Archangels left in the entire High Heaves was Imperius and Itherael, and Itherael was not good at fighting. It could be said that if the High Heavens wanted to turn the tables, it was only possible if the nephalem suddenly appeared to help them.
However, because of Roy’s strategy, the demons of Sanctuary were restrained, and the nephalem’s main target of conflict changed from demons to angels. The relationship between the two sides during their honeymoon period had been deteriorating since Tyrael disappeared, and Imperius’s pride had also played a catalytic role. Therefore, the final result was that Roy led an army to attack the High Heavens, and no nephalem appeared to help the angels…
Roy walked toward the gap of the Diamond Gates and followed the demon army into the Silver City. Countless demons carefully surrounded their king. After entering the Silver City, they excitedly spread out in all directions. Now, the explosions of magic fire could be seen everywhere in the Silver City. The roars of angels, the howls of demons, the sound of countless weapons colliding, and black smoke pillars all over the city indicated the intensity of this war.
After entering the city, Roy looked up at the tall peak in the distance. The Silver City was enormous. Not only was it a city where angels lived, but it was also a powerful fortress. The area here was even comparable to a human metropolis. About thirty kilometers away, among the countless spires, the tallest building stood. It was an arch, the Crystal Arch! It had countless diamond-like crystal faces. Under the illumination of the artificial sun of the High Heavens, these diamond faces were shining with an indescribable gorgeous halo.
This halo almost illuminated the entire Silver City. The colorful light intertwined with the harmonious and holy sounds echoing in the Silver City, explaining what ‘Heaven’ was!
This Crystal Arch was the legendary building formed by the spine of the God of Creation, Anu. It was the symbol of the entire High Heavens. It could be said that only by completely destroying the Crystal Arch could it represent the fall of the High Heavens.
Of course, this wasn’t an easy task. Even without the obstruction of countless angels, the ultra-hardness of the Crystal Arch was also an important factor that made it difficult to destroy. Last time, Diablo had rushed into the High
Heavens with irresistible force, but in the end, he couldn’t destroy the Crystal Arch and could only choose the stupidest method—use dark power to corrupt it.
This stupid method had consumed too much of Diablo’s time and bought an opportunity for the High Heavens. In the end, Tyrael led a group of nephalem elite warriors to stop Diablo.
Mephisto had told Roy these things bit by bit during his follow-up contact with Roy. In fact, although the seven demon kings in the Burning Hells knew about his plan to attack the High Heavens and expressed their support, they were actually wondering if he could really defeat the High Heavens.
The reason was that the Crystal Arch was a true holy artifact, which represented the power of the Creator. Roy alone might not be able to destroy it. Of course, Roy knew this, but this couldn’t stop his plan to attack the High
Heavens.
All the angels in the Silver City were currently gathered in the city. They formed defensive lines everywhere to stop the demon army’s attack. Roy didn’t do much to these ordinary angels and left them all to the demon army to attack. With the portals remaining open, the demons of the Burning Hells almost poured out in full strength and relied on their massive numbers to attack continuously, crushing the resistance of the angels bit by bit.
Imperius didn’t appear again but commanded the angel army from behind. Roy knew that he and Itherael would wait for him in front of the Crystal Arch, so he wasn’t in a hurry. He just followed behind the demon army slowly and stopped to rest from time to time.
This war lasted for three days and three nights. During this time, Roy was attacked by countless angel troops, but most of these attacks were blocked by the demons surrounding him. Now, he was the representative of the Burning Hells. In order to protect their king, the demons fought back and defended him with all their might. There were very few angels who could truly reach Roy in the end.
During these three days and three nights of attacks, the Silver City was almost completely destroyed. The war between the angels and demons had caused countless spires to collapse, and the golden sunlight in the sky above the Silver City was blocked by endless dark clouds. The sacred Heaven of the past no longer existed, and the hymns of holy harmony were gone. Only the ruins left behind after the flames of war were wailing.
The demons also suffered heavy losses. In the end, only hundreds of elite demons survived the war and followed Roy to the Crystal Arch. Here, Imperius and Itherael blocked this place with the last group of angels. Their bodies were full of traces of the flames of war. Their golden archangel armor was covered in blood stains, and there were also marks left by various weapons on them, making them look very damaged.
“If you want to enter this place, you have to step over our corpses!” Imperius held the re-straightened Spear of Valor and gritted his teeth as he looked at Roy. Itherael was silent beside him, and the Scroll of Fate was floating beside him, emitting a holy and dazzling light.
However, Roy ignored them and turned his head to look around.. He suddenly shouted, “Mephisto! Diablo! Baal! How long are you going to watch?! It’s already so late, but you still don’t dare to appear?! Has the Black Soulstone imprisoned you until you’ve become timid?!”
