Chapter 220 - Gate of Echoes

Chapter 220 Gate of Echoes
After Julia’s recovery flames healed Fat Tiger, and she placed him on the ground, Fat Tiger circled around Roy’s legs in doubt, his three noses sniffing.
“Haha!” Roy immediately understood his doubts when he saw this. He crouched down and touched his three heads one by one. “Fat Tiger, don’t you remember me?”
Upon hearing this familiar sound, Fat Tiger finally confirmed it. He immediately grinned widely.
“Aw!”
“Woo!”
“Woof!”
Seeing Fat Tiger’s three heads barking like a group of people, Julia could not help but burst out laughing. “Where did you find such a hellhound? He’s very interesting!” “He’s Fat Tiger!” Roy did not explain and only said to Fat Tiger, “Fat Tiger, this is your future mistress. Remember!”
Fat Tiger tilted his three heads together and sized up Julia. Then he stretched his heads and sniffed Julia’s scent carefully. Since Master Roy said that she was the mistress, Fat Tiger had to remember her scent.
Fat Tiger sniffed and once again smelled Roy’s scent on Julia so that he could confirm the identity of the mistress. But he felt that something was a little strange. Why was Master Roy’s smell richer in the lower half of the mistress…
While Fat Tiger was still wondering, Roy had already stood up and observed his surroundings. Of course, he recognized that this was where he and Fat Tiger used to live, and he even remembered where he found the demon gold mine. He happily rubbed Fat Tiger’s heads again. “Good job. Looks like you looked after the house very well!”
Fat Tiger was praised and joyfully circled around Roy before running toward the cave. He turned around on the way and barked at Roy, signaling him to follow.
“Let’s go!” Roy led Julia forward. When they arrived at the cave, they found that Fat Tiger had sealed the entrance of the cave and was already digging.
Soon, Fat Tiger dug the entrance open, and Roy carried Julia, bent over, and walked in. They went into the depths of the cave, and the space here was much larger.
Roy stretched out his hand and wiped the big stone used as a table. He found that there was already a thick layer of dust on it and could not help but sigh. “It seems like I’ve been away for a long time. I’ve stayed in that world for more than three years. I don’t know how long it’s been in the Abyss…”
“It seems like no one has calculated it.” Julia tilted her head and pondered. “The time of the Abyss is out of sync with the times of other worlds. Moreover, His Majesty Samael said that when a Gate of the Abyss opens, it connects to a certain time node in another world…”
“Oh?” Roy asked Julia with interest, “Has such a situation happened-a demon went to the same world twice, but when they went the second time, it was before the first time?”
“I’m not too sure…” Julia thought about it and shook her head. “But it’s very likely possible.”
Roy nodded thoughtfully and did not say anything. After going around the cave, Roy patted Fat Tiger’s heads. “Okay, let’s go. We can abandon this place and go to the deeper world! We need to find a new home.”
This was the problem that Roy had been thinking about along the way back. When he first came to the Darksiders world, he was only a middle-rank demon. However, the enormous harvest there gave him a tremendous leap in his strength. Not only did he break through to the high-rank demon level in one go, but he could already touch the threshold of demon lord. In that case, there was no need to continue staying in the middle Abyss after returning.
Although Roy was invincible in this middle Abyss, he could only stay for a short period of time. If this continued for a long time, it would probably anger the demon lords. Demons were like this. The hierarchy was strict and clear, and it was best for demons of every class to stay wherever they should.
After getting Fat Tiger, Roy needed to go to the Abyss level where high-rank demons were. It was a lower level of the Abyss, meaning that there were stronger neighbors and richer resources, far beyond what the middle Abyss could compare to.
Fat Tiger’s heart sank when he heard that the home he had worked so hard to guard was about to be abandoned. But when he heard that there was going to be a new home, he was immediately happy and could not wait to run out of the cave.
After coming out, Roy looked in the direction of the gold mine and hesitated about whether to get some demon gold. Although the humans in the Darksiders world were in modern civilization, Roy had not expected that the human world would be destroyed before he could spread the demon gold, resulting in the demon gold being useless. Speaking of which, the gold that Roy had spread in the Pirates of the Caribbean world, after continuously sending back souls for some time, had not had any movements recently. Roy did not know what had happened. After thinking about it, he felt that maybe the churches of the Pirates of the Caribbean world had confiscated the demon gold.
This was a little troublesome. After all, Roy had brought very little demon gold last time. As long as people had the heart to investigate, they could quickly gather all the gold and destroy it.
With this thought in mind, Roy went to the gold mine again. This time, he took away hundreds of tons of demon gold!
As long as the demon gold was engraved with Roy’s Osiris Mark and then circulated in the human worlds, it would be able to give Roy a large number of souls continuously. The more the gold spread out, the less likely it would be for people to be able to stop it.
Julia did not know why Roy wanted this gold, but she did not ask further and just collected it with Roy.
After getting enough gold, Roy went out of the mine. He would slowly engrave the marks when he had time in the future. Thus, a demon, a fallen angel, and a winged hellhound flew into the sky and headed northwest.
Just like when entering the middle Abyss, you had to find the entrance to the lower Abyss where high-rank demons were.
The flowing magma rivers had always been the best guides in the Abyss. They flew along a magma river for five days before finally arriving at a huge fissure.
Julia looked at the bottomless fissure and was very excited. When she was created, she had directly appeared in Samael’s demon king space, and she had never experienced this experience of entering lower into the world…
They flew down along the fissure for a long time. They felt that they had flown hundreds of kilometers, but they could not find an exit or the end. This puzzled Roy. If they were on a planet, such a deep depth might have even penetrated through the core of the planet. How deep was the lower Abyss?
There was no light in front, but at this moment, Roy and the others suddenly bumped into an invisible ‘wall’!
Even with the dark vision of demons, they could not see anything in front, but when they reached out to touch it, they could clearly feel a thick layer of something blocking their way. Uh, is this the Gate of Echoes mentioned in the inherited memories? Roy thought.
After middle-rank demons promoted to high-rank demons, there was no need for rituals such as bloodline awakening. Therefore, when demons headed to the lower Abyss from the middle Abyss, they had to go through the ‘Gate of Echoes’, which was something mentioned in Araniya’s inherited memories.
Roy stretched out his hand, pressed his palm on the ‘wall’, and began to output magic power on it.
Only through using completely compressed magic power could someone open this sealed ‘gate’. And the difference between middle-rank demons and high-rank demons was precisely the difference in the nature of their magic power. It could be said that only the magic power of high-rank demons could open this so-called ‘Gate of Echoes’… As Roy inputted his magic power, he could see the surrounding space shaking in his dark vision. The vibrations did not last long before suddenly disappearing with a bang. The Gate of Echoes in front of them suddenly disappeared, replaced by a fiery red light.
It was the exit to the lower Abyss…
