BXBX NOVEL Chapter 5: Chapter 5: Come at Me Together ii
Although the current Wicked Demon\'s face is all bandaged up, making it impossible to see his expression, one could tell from Lordan\'s clenched fists.
Of course, no one among the apostles present paid any more attention to Lordan.
Their entire focus was on Reji, their new Demon King.
The true strong ones.
Battle?
The apostles were guessing Reji\'s intentions.
And then, Reji finally set his sights on the Great Demon Hektor
Among the nine great apostles, in terms of physical and combat power, the Great Demon is undoubtedly ranked first.
Capable of easily overpowering Wicked Demon Lordan even with one hand tied behind his back.
Seeing this, Eileen couldn\'t help but want to speak out.
The Succubus wanted to stop Reji; she was very aware of Hektor\'s strength. Reji had just been summoned, and starting a fight with Hektor was too risky!
Unfortunately, Hektor spoke before she could.
The Great Demon, seeing Reji\'s gaze on him and after hearing "the true strong ones," felt his demonic blood boiling all of a sudden.
Being so valued and chosen by the Demon King was an honor for him as an apostle, as a Great Demon.
Hektor immediately stepped forward.
The Great Demon\'s muscular body bowed deeply towards Reji on the altar, who looked very frail in comparison, as if apologizing for the upcoming battle with Demon King Reji.
But soon, when Hektor raised his head again, his eyes were filled with a burning desire to fight.
"To become a stepping stone for my king is my honor. I will not fail your will my king, and will give my all!" Hektor pounded his chest with his fist, and his words rang truly.
Seeing the Great Demon like that, the last bit of hope Eileen had that "Hektor could be smart and go easy on the Demon King" shattered into splinters.
Especially the "give my all", she found it totally naive. The words gave Eileen such frustration that she stamped her feet.
Reji wasn\'t too surprised at the display on the altar.
After all, that\'s just how the Great Demons are.
A straightforward clan.
A pure martial fighters.
And only Hektor among all the game\'s boss fights didn\'t summon minions to assist like the rest of the apostles. In every phase, it was Hektor vs. Reji alone in a one-on-one.
Of course, he was also the one Reji soloed and struggled against the most.
As the Great Demon, Hektor also had a supermodel attribute, but what even more troubled Reji in the game was Hektor\'s domain skill.
When strength reaches a certain level, illuminating a more complete life path, the strong can possess their own domains.
A domain is the power of rules.
After pulling an opponent into the domain, one can fight under rules that are favorable to oneself.
And Hektor\'s domain power is extremely perverse.
Its name is [Malice Bloom]
The effect is to judge based on both parties\' sin values and proportionally enhance their own attribute values. Of course, the extent of the enhancement can at most not exceed three times Hektor\'s own attribute values.
Reji clearly remembers when he used the detection skill to probe Hektor.
This Great Demon\'s sin value was up to tens of thousands!
What concept is tens of thousands of sin values?
In the game, stealing a passerby\'s vehicle ten times would only add one sin value.
Illegally entering someone else\'s residence and public areas ten times would add five sin values.
Even the most sin value-increasing thing Reji did, such as toppling the statue of fate or stealthily, cough, borrowing someone\'s religious and clan heirlooms, only added fifty sin values.
And after the sin value exceeds thirty points, it would trigger the warning of the Church of Light; surpassing fifty points, the Church of Light would send people to capture you; exceeding seventy points, the Holy Maiden of Light would personally come to kill you.
Reji\'s highest sin value in the game was only 845 points.
Later in the game, during the "Demon Invasion" main event, every ten low-level demons killed would offset one sin value, so when Reji fought Hektor, his sin value had already been reduced to zero.
This means, Hektor\'s Malice Bloom, could benefit from the domain effect brought by tens of thousands of sin values, making the already supermodel-dimensional Great Demon\'s attribute values nearly double, while Reji\'s zero sin value meant nothing.
This is the domain skill.
This is the power of rules.
It seems like both sides are under the same rules, but not really.
Pulling his thoughts back from that difficult boss battle in the past.
Now, Reji, looking at the Great Demon Hektor before him, full of fighting spirit and ready to duel him, felt a sense of kinship.
\'Just you with a hundred thousand sin values?\'
\'What goes around comes around\'
After being tormented in the game for so long, it\'s time for him to enjoy the full effects of the Malice Bloom domain!
Reji\'s billions of sin values could undoubtedly directly elevate attributes to the domain\'s limit, letting him experience what three times the Hektor feels like!
\'Hmm\'
\'No, that won\'t do!\'
\'Can\'t miss such a good opportunity\'
\'What I urgently need now is to establish my authority\'
\'Urgently need a strong and powerful proof to make the apostles believe I am not human\'
Crushing a Great Demon, Reji feels it is still somewhat lacking. After all, his real attribute, just like Lordan\'s unique "perception of the weak" as a Wicked Demon, is not even worth mentioning, barely a fight.
\'So I must achieve my goal in one step\'
\'A single punch to avoid a hundred punches\'
And with three times Hektor\'s attributes, not to mention a duel with the Great Demon, Reji feels he could take on another apostle without any problem.
This has nothing to do with combat skills, just a pure numerical crush.
\'However, just to be safe and avoid flipping the script, I cannot choose those apostles with weakening and control abilities\'
The best would be another one like Hektor, without any fancy magical abilities, purely a physical combat-type BOSS!
At this point, the choice is clear.
Reji ignored Hektor, who was eager to start fighting with him.
Instead, he turned his gaze to another apostle.
Sword Demon.
Pierre.
The blade of the demon race.
Reji\'s action left the apostles present puzzled and unclear.
What does it mean?
Did the Demon King change his mind, intimidated by Hektor\'s full commitment and wanting to switch combatants?
Even Hektor himself thought so.
The fighting spirit ignited by the Great Demon seemed to diminish a lot due to disappointment.
However, although Sword Demon Pierre is somewhat inferior to him in strength, he is also ranked second in combat power among the nine apostles.
Watching such a battle is also excellent.
Hektor could only comfort himself this way.
On the other side, Eileen sighed in relief.
She thought to herself, \'As expected the Demon King is sensible, not so rash\'
\'Although changing the opponent midway is a bit\'
\'But it\'s better than being messed up by Hektor\'s brute force!\'
Eileen was clear about Sword Demon Pierre.
Compared to Hektor, Pierre, although also very strong, is much more meticulous, being the edge of the demon race, an assassin. Even if the Demon King truly cannot win, Pierre would considerately go easy, never letting the king look bad or embarrassed.
\'Good!\'
\'Very good!\'
Eileen\'s beautiful Succubus face just showed a relieved happy smile, but then, the next second, her smile froze.
Because
Reji spoke again:
"Pierre, you too. Come up together"
