nThe Thule Society’s headquarters was a massive European-style manor.

nIn the surrounding open area, there were several machine guns behind piled up sandbags. These machine guns covered the front door of the manor, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

nAt this moment, perhaps the German troops here had already received the news, and they appeared very nervous. Even at four o’clock in the morning, they were still on high alert. The searchlights on the roof of the manor were sweeping the surroundings back and forth, and many German officers dressed in SS uniforms were loudly commanding the soldiers to increase their fortifications.

nAccording to the intelligence the Allies obtained, the Thule Society’s headquarters was underground, and this manor had a passage for escape, so after splitting up some people to guard the exit of this passage, the remaining people followed Roy and attacked the manor!

nAlmost instantly, the sounds of gunshots and explosions rang out. The defensive power of the German troops guarding this manor was formidable, but the Allies had a Gundam!

nRoy led Fat Tiger and charged toward the defensive points around the manor. When the German soldiers saw Roy’s demonic appearance, they broke down almost instantly! Since they were guarding this place, they certainly knew what they were protecting. Black magic and dark creatures were no stranger to them. In their impression, the Thule Society’s existence was for summoning supernatural creatures, mysterious and powerful.

nHowever, a supernatural creature was attacking them, so the German troops quickly lost their will to fight…

nUnder Roy’s lead, the defensive fortifications did not cause too much trouble for the operation team. Before long, they entered the manor.

nAfter entering the manor, a few people wearing black robes and cloaks appeared. Needless to say, these people were the believers of the Thule Society.

n“Damned sinners, the God of Darkness will punish you!” The believers of the Thule Society were full of anger as they shouted at the Allied soldiers.

n“Sorry, the God of Darkness is on our side now!” The operation team soldiers grinned and pulled the triggers.

nDadada. The submachine gun’s bullets entered the bodies of these believers, but something strange happened. These people were not killed. Instead, they were fine, as though they had never been injured. The bullets seemed to have passed through their bodies.

n“What’s going on?” The operation team soldiers were shocked, but before they could figure out what was going on, the believers took out their guns from under their robes and started fighting back.

nOn the stairs and in the corridor, there was so much gunfire that the operation team could not even lift their heads. They tried to attack, but without exception, none of them could kill these people.

nJust as everyone was at a loss, a strange force suddenly struck. The floor of the manor was rolled up by this force, as though a powerful shock wave was raging through, and debris flew all over the manor. The believers of the Thule Society who were attacking the operation team were swept up and sent flying by this force. Then they crashed onto the ground amid screams, half dead.

nThe lights in the manor also extinguished. In the darkness, a pair of shiny blood-red eyes appeared. People could vaguely see his tall figure and the shadow of the demon wings behind him.

nUpon seeing this, everyone, including the operation team, could not help but gulp. They only felt an unprecedented sense of fear spread throughout their bodies…

nFor collecting souls, Roy followed the operation team into the manor. As soon as he entered, he saw the believers of the Thule Society suppressing the operation team, so he had no choice but to help.

nHe discovered that the believers of the Thule Society had the ability to use simple illusions. It was precisely because of this that the bullets shot by the operation team could not kill the enemies; what they hit was merely illusions.

nRoy could not be bothered to solve them one by one, so he simply used Psychokinesis to turn the tables!

nWith the increase of his magic power, Roy’s Psychokinesis had become more and more powerful. Turning Psychokinesis into a powerful kinetic energy impact, Roy instantly blew up the manor’s hall.

nRoy reached out his hand and grabbed a believer from the mess. He held him in his hand and let Fat Tiger smell him. Sure enough, Fat Tiger smelled the same smell as the illusion demon César on this believer.

nFrom the looks of it, César had indeed used some of his demon blood to help the Thule Society develop its believers.

nDemon blood contained special powers that could cause ordinary humans to have unknown transformations. Dracula, the vampire Roy saw before, was an undead creature transformed by demon blood. However, César’s demon blood seemed to have a different effect. After receiving his demon blood, these believers of the Thule Society obtained a simple illusion ability, but they did not seem to have obtained anything like eternal life.

nAfter ripping off the other party’s robe with his claws, Roy saw a large area of festering and thick boils on the believer. Indeed, the demon blood had a price…

nAt this moment, the members of the operation team had already turned on their flashlights. Under the light, the believer being held in Roy’s hand saw Roy’s appearance clearly, and he said in disbelief, “God… God of Darkness?! W-why are you helping these heretics?!”

nRoy could not be bothered with him. These so-called believers of the Thule Society were just some fanatical demon worshippers. In fact, such people existed in every world. They were just some people who had dark minds and had been brainwashed.

nHe casually tossed the believer to the people of the operation team, who was currently shooting these believers…

nThey continued forward until they reached the garden behind the manor. A soldier of the operation team found the underground entrance, and they carefully entered the underground tunnel. Roy followed behind and entered the headquarters.

nThey found a huge iron door underground. There were some strange words and pictures of demons carved on it. Because it was underground, the operation team did not dare to blow it up to enter, so they could only look at Roy. Roy walked over and pulled the metal door with both hands, tearing it out.

nAfter entering, they discovered that this place did not look like the place of an evil cult but like a huge laboratory…

nAt this time, many people were already lying in pools of blood in the laboratory. From the looks of their clothes, these dead people should have been the scientists of the laboratory.

nAt the end of the laboratory, there was a huge glass culture tank with thick tubes connected to it. In the culture tank, a giant monster was soaking in a green liquid. This monster was about two meters tall and looked human, but its body was covered with long fur, had fangs in its mouth, and a pair of long horns on its forehead.

nA bald man was kneeling in front of the culture tank, and his hands were covered with blood.

nWhen the operation team entered, the bald man turned around and smiled smugly at the Allied soldiers.

n“Unfortunately, you’re too late! Lord César’s soul has already fused with this body!”

nThe operation team soldiers held their guns and looked at each other, not knowing what to do in this situation. The monster in the culture tank was obviously a terrifying demon, so they could only look at Roy, who was coming in from behind.

n“Fused?” Roy walked in and looked at César in the culture tank with great interest, “This is the half-human half-demon body he created?”

n“Yes!” The bald man was stunned when he saw Roy, and then he nodded. “You are the one who Lord César talked about, Lord Osiris, right? Since you and Lord César are both demons, why can’t you join forces? If the two of you work together, you can easily rule the entire world!”

nRoy did not answer him but instead asked, “Are you César’s contractor? You summoned César to this world?”

n“Yes, but the contract has been removed!” the bald man said. “With this demon-human body, Lord César no longer needs the contract to maintain his existence in this world.”

nRoy walked toward the culture tank and stood in front of it. He carefully looked at César’s demon-human body and then knocked on the glass of the culture tank. “César, don’t pretend to be dead. I know you’ve completed the fusion!”

nWith Roy’s words, César suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Roy with a hateful gaze.

nHe had a ventilator in his mouth, so he could speak, and he said to Roy in a muffled voice, “What advantages did Rogeros give you that you’re working so hard to kill me?”

n“Advantages? I don’t know, but if I don’t kill you, I’ll be in trouble!” Roy said. “As for you, what’s so great about this half-human half-demon body of yours that it’s worth your effort?”

n“Hmph, you ignorant fellow. How could you know the value of a half-human half-demon body?” César said.

n“Why don’t you tell me? I don’t mind listening to the story!” Roy said.

n“All right. Since you’re already here, I’ll tell you!” César said. “Do you know that in the Abyss, half-human half-demons have always had the title of the Children of Taboo?”

n“No!” Roy said honestly. “This is the first time I’ve heard of it!”

n“There are many reasons why they’re called taboo!” César said. “The body of a demon will be repulsed by the power of a world, but a demon-human body can come and go between the human worlds and the Abyss without any hindrance. Moreover, a demon-human body possesses the power of a demon, but it has the possibility of surpassing the bloodline of the demon. For millions of years, the Abyss has produced many demon humans, and all of them have been incomparably powerful without exception! However, in history, the demon humans born have often gone to the opposite side of the demons due to the influence of their human nature, and, in turn, use their demon power to kill demons. Therefore, many times, although demons know that demon-human bodies are very convenient and powerful, unless absolutely essential, it is impossible to create one without the permission of high-level demons. And for the demon humans who have gone to the other side, they will be hunted down and killed. This is the origin of the so-called taboo!”

n“That’s it?” Roy asked in confusion. “You’re an upper-middle-rank demon and about to become a high-rank demon. Can a high-rank demon not compare to this demon-human body?”

n“It’s not like that! Don’t you understand the benefits of being able to remain in a world forever? All the souls will be yours, and you won’t need to compete with other demons!” César was excited. “In this world, there won’t be any higher-level demons to order you around, and you can dominate the entire world!”

nRoy shook his head. “That’s not enough, because the premise is that you can obtain these souls! Let’s not talk about execution demons like me. Do you think those angels will tolerate the existence of a demon-human body with a demon soul that exists forever in a world?”

nRoy did not say a word about how he could not underestimate the humans of this world. Perhaps they did not have magic power or powerful bodies, but they possessed the power of science. Even if artillery could not kill demons, then what about missiles? Nuclear bombs?

nDid he really think that it was so simple to dominate and rule an entire world? In that case, why couldn’t those demon humans do it before?

n“Also, since you’ve said that demon-human bodies are so powerful, why don’t I feel any traces of magic power on this body of yours?” Roy pointed at César’s body through the glass. “Or is it that your newly-born demon-human body also needs to devour souls to increase your magic power? Let me guess. You must have prepared a large number of souls here so that you can immediately replenish your magic power as soon as you complete the transformation. Am I right?”

nUpon hearing this, César’s expression finally changed, and he shouted, “W-what do you want to do?”

nRoy ignored him and asked loudly, “Fat Tiger, have you found it?”

n“Aw!” “Woo!” “Woof!”

nWith Fat Tiger’s cheerful cries, Roy knew that he had guessed right…
