Virus King - Chapter 248

Chapter 248: Conquering the 10th Layer of the Abyss! Profession Evolution?

TL: YYang

Submit or die! The Abyssal Demon Language seemed no different from any other language, and naturally, such words enraged Aodu, the lord who had reigned supreme on the 10th Layer of the Abyss.

“You’re courting death, human!” Aodu roared, charging at Chen Bai like a heavily armored tank, wild and furious!

“Demons, truly foolish creatures,” Chen Bai shook his head, especially the most inferior of the demon species, the Lesser Demon Race. It wasn’t that they lacked intelligence, but their capacity for thought was quite limited, unwilling to use their brains much. The Fallen Demons were slightly better, but the Lesser Demon Race was practically the emblem of the Abyss.

It seemed that trying to subdue this one, to make him one of the demon lords of the first ten layers of the Abyss, which Chen Bai planned to name the Abyssal Wilds, was unreliable. In that case, it was straightforward!

Watching the rampaging Aodu charge, the Biochemical Disaster reappeared familiarly in Chen Bai’s hand. Seeing this, a smile appeared on Chen Bai’s lips. Even though Aodu was a level 30 second-transfer demon warlord, his combat style was still quite predictable. Although he had the strength of level 30, aside from increased attributes, his methods remained the same.

However, Chen Bai never underestimated any opponent. This demon lord, after all, dominated the 10th Layer of the Abyss, becoming the leader of countless low-level Lesser Demons and Fallen Demons, naturally possessing some skills.

Close combat was exhilarating, but after becoming the Scourge of the Living, the development of various viruses had reached its peak utility, and the ability of Plague Sun was the truly effective and convenient killing move!

A point of dark green light burst forth, and the moment Aodu, with his exposed skin, was illuminated by this light, he felt as if something special had entered his body! An indescribable weakness spread through him! Black spots appeared on his body, though faint, they clung to him like a bone-deep affliction, constantly eroding his vitality!

However, this was a demon lord at least twelve levels higher than Chen Bai. In the judgment of the Cosmic Will, this was undoubtedly a BOSS-level entity!

Killing Aodu like any other minion was unlikely.

Of course, demons themselves were proof of powerful strength across all worlds. Any adult transferred demon in the God and Devil Trial Grounds was undoubtedly a BOSS creature.

But Aodu was a BOSS among BOSSES!

The Plague Sun instantly transferred from Chen Bai’s fingertips to his eyes. His eyes became two small suns capable of spreading deadly plague viruses at any moment. Meanwhile, a massive claw appeared on his hand!

The Biochemical Disaster erupted with light, and simultaneously, dark red hellfire blazed wildly on his body. Not only did it massively increase Chen Bai’s strength, but it also propelled him rapidly towards Aodu!

Aodu’s eyes turned bloodthirsty and frenzied. On his enormous axe, a phantom seemed to spread out once more!

Demon Warlord ability, Demon Battle Spirit!

It could immunize against many mental abilities and attacks!

With a thought, Chen Bai’s body exploded like thunder in the air. He had already applied all the debuffs to Aodu, and now it was time for Aodu to face Chen Bai’s full firepower!

Chen Bai’s all-attributes increased by 50%, plus the Tyrant’s Claw ability of the Biochemical Disaster added another 30% to strength and agility!

At this moment, Chen Bai’s strength and agility directly broke through the terrifying threshold of a thousand points!

The speed of his burst was like a flash of lightning in the air. Even though Aodu exerted all his strength, his giant axe was raised high but still a bit too slow!

The terrifying blade left a deep, bone-revealing wound on Aodu’s arm!

However, Aodu’s strength and speed slightly increased!

Demon Warlord passive skill, Death Frenzy, the more severe the injury, the greater the increase in attributes!

A peak second-transfer Demon Warlord was not so easily defeated!

However, Chen Bai’s objective had already been achieved once more. The dark red hellfire caused Aodu to let out an extremely pitiful wail, so piercing that it could be heard clearly for dozens of miles around the Abyssal Well. Countless demons began converging towards the area!

He needed to finish this quickly! Chen Bai gritted his teeth, pushing his combat potential to the limit. The sharpness and power of the Biochemical Disaster were already impressive for breaking through Aodu’s defenses! It seemed he really needed to find a way to enhance the power of the Biochemical Disaster soon! But now was clearly not the time.

The terrifying power left Aodu, covered in blood, like a broken rag doll! His body was riddled with wounds, the shattered flesh clearly visible. The eyes of the demon lord of the 10th Layer of the Abyss grew increasingly blood-red. His consciousness seemed greatly diminished and weakened!

However, his strength did not increase compared to before; instead, it seemed somewhat diminished. Demons were not immortal beings; injuries naturally affected combat power. Even with Death Frenzy, injuries still took their toll.

More importantly, there was another factor! The dark spots on Aodu’s exposed skin were clearly visible. They seemed to penetrate deep into his bones, growing darker and covering an ever-expanding area! With each move, the heavy breathing, clear coughing, and gradually wheezing and sneezing sounds made the demon lord finally realize what was happening!

In his frenzied and incredulous gaze, the demon lord of the 10th Layer of the Abyss finally collapsed with a thud!

This scene was witnessed by the countless demons that had gathered from all directions. At some point, Aodu’s frenzied roar had summoned them, some excited, some filled with battle intent, and others eager to join the fray.

Chen Bai ignored the demons. He grabbed the massive battle axe and then severed Aodu’s lifeless head, holding it aloft! In his other hand, dark runes began to communicate with the Abyssal Well!

The light of the Power of the Abyss enveloped him! The feedback from the Abyssal Will once again resonated in Chen Bai’s mind:

[The Great Abyssal Overlord has conquered the 10th Layer of the Abyss! Obtained the highest control over the current layer! Additionally, all attributes +10!]

[The Great Abyssal Overlord has completed the first step of the Overlord’s conquest. The power of the Abyssal Overlord profession has been enhanced! Gained a new ability: Edict of the Overlord!]

Feeling a surge of inspiration, Chen Bai’s thoughts moved, and in the next moment, the countless demons surrounding the Abyssal Well, who had been watching, seemed to hear the highest command. In a scene that even the gods could not have imagined, all the demons knelt in unison, loudly chanting in Abyssal Demon Language:

“Overlord!”
