The spear suddenly appeared like a ghost only millimeters away from his chest, none of the castle's defence managed to detect anything. The mighty demon lord didn't have a chance to react at all, until he felt the tremendous pain.

"Uarrgghh! !" he has been living in the most vile environment for hundreds of years in the past, he only managed to escape hell after a stupid noble had fallen for his tricks and had summon him. In that place, in order to gain a higher rank and evolve into a higher devil, he had gone through a lot of agony and torture on his path to nobility. But THIS pain, it's nothing compared to the seventh hell's nether swamp. The very foundation of his soul was currently being burned by a black fire, coupled with millions of wretched souls munching on it, as they further disintegrate it at a faster rate.

But the most dreadful thing is, he couldn't touch and take out the spear. Not because of the black flames, but because of the aura that this spear emits prevents him to. A primordial aura of an ancient Fiend god whose status is said to be on much higher level than the Dukes of hell and the mighty Archdemons.

Suddenly, a pulling force emitted from the void and pulled the spear back with its prey.

A list of information appeared on Deus field of vision, as he examines this giant toad on the tip of his spear.

"[Cerebral probe Level 7]." Deus only used a lower level probing skill, since it can cause the lower level targets to explode, making their memories unrecoverable.

After retrieving Adreus' important memories...

"Mischief, take care of the remaining hostile entities inside that citadel." receiving her master's command, Mischief's little right hand conjures a giant hammer. This hammer looks like those magical wand from those kid movies with some girly star design on it. The handle was only 1 meter but the hammer's head is larger than the brat's body.

"Nyaster, what about the prisoners?"

*sigh* "Retrieve them and bring them inside the secured chamber of the fortress." Deus wasn't planning to save them for free.

After receiving her master's instruction.. *siu!*

With her little body, she is still moving as fast as lightning, flying towards the citadel while carrying her over-sized weapon, bypassing the field barrier.

"Now then.." Deus shifted his attention back to that disgusting frog on his spear.

This frog has died moments ago while being drag back with the spear. His soul was burned and devoured clean by the wretched spirits.

"[Armaments of Destruction Level 9.. Abominable Shaddoll!]"

A huge yet gloomy looking spell circle appeared on the sky, then a large rusty metal box appeared out from it. Its old gears started to turn, blowing away the accumulated dusts. With an eerie noise, the top lid slowly opens.

A metal hand reach out to grab the edge of the box, one hand then a second one followed by another one. As the whole body managed to emerge, a broken giant doll dressed in tattered queen's outfit can be seen. It was surrounded by a depressing aura. Its face is cracked open with one of its eye hanging outside of its socket. Each of its one-hundred hands contain a long invisible strings.

Abominable Shaddoll is a genuine Level 90 monster!

But for balance sake, this thing requires a lot of suitable 'equip materials', which needed time to prepare.

Deus tossed the dead body of Adreus towards Shaddoll. After confirming a suitable material (a level 60 and above, biological organism) two invisible treads pierced the corpse and forcefully invaded the host's body.

[Metamorphosis], one of shaddoll's skill. Letting her upgrade a dead level 60-70 biological beings to level 80 by unlocking their full body potential and upgrading their body with high grade metal nanites, giving them additional attack and defence.

Also, once the 100 materials were completely collected, [Heart of the Abominable Queen] will be available. This skill automatically activates once she enters battle mode.

With [Heart of the Abominable Queen], as long as not every single one of her puppets died, her health points will never drop below 30%. This passive skill lasted for two hours.
