"Ato, you go give it a try."
"No problem, Queen. But this human's upgrade looks like all flash and no substance."
"Let me be the one to end this joke."
Ato raised the Flame Sword and slowly walked towards the Demon Claws.
Swish...
The tip of the Flame Sword dragged a long red mark on the ground.
This time, he wasn't fighting Lin Ye, so Ato felt no psychological burden.
"Are you ready?"
Lin Ye glanced at Ato, his palm pointing slightly towards him.
After Ato nodded, Lin Ye directly grabbed with his palm.
Whoosh—!
The Demon Claws flew directly towards Ato, transforming into two fan-like shapes that trapped him in the middle.
A mere parlor trick!
Ato's eyes turned cold, and he swung the Flame Sword with all his might!
He thrust, parried, and slashed!
Clang, clang, clang!
The collision between the Flame Sword and the Demon Claws sparked fireworks in the laboratory.
With each impact, fine cracks appeared on the surface of the Flame Sword, as if it couldn't withstand the force of the Demon Claws.
Lin Ye applied a little more force, and his palms slammed together.
Splat!
The Demon Claws followed Lin Ye's movement, swatting Ato like a fly!
Pfft!
Ato spat out a mouthful of blood and plummeted from the sky.
Blood seeped from his body, dyeing him red. Even his Demon Wings were broken.
With a bang, he crashed heavily onto the ground.
The surrounding demons stared in stunned silence.
Ato was a Demon Commander, yet he was so easily toyed with and defeated by the Demon Claws?
And it wasn't over yet.
Lin Ye gripped the Flame Sword, and with two whooshing sounds, the Demon Claws flew past it, one in front and one behind.
The Flame Sword, capable of cutting through anything, was shattered with just a light touch.
"Holy cow, I'm seeing ghosts in broad daylight!"
"Yeah! It feels like after just a few tremors, the Flame Sword was broken!"
The demons couldn't understand how the Demon Claws next to Lin Ye had accomplished this.
At that moment, the Demon Claws in Lin Ye's hands danced around him like two adorable pets, circling him joyfully.
Morgana watched silently, a deep puzzlement in her eyes.
What was this brat up to?
It was one thing that his reaction speed was fast, but it seemed like he had actually upgraded the Demon Claws?
No, no, I have to try it.
Thinking this, Morgana raised her hand and shot out a dark, obsidian Dark Silver chain!
The sharp chain aimed straight for Lin Ye's chest, flying at him fiercely!
Whoosh, a tearing sound!
Lin Ye's ears twitched, and without even turning his head, he reached out.
The Demon Claws flew out to meet the Dark Silver chain, and the two began to grapple in mid-air.
Lin Ye's own combat experience wasn't very extensive.
However, during this clash with Morgana, his combat experience was skyrocketing.
Like a rapidly growing robot, he mimicked Morgana's every move.
In his battle with Morgana, his attack techniques were rapidly improving, and his timing became increasingly precise!
Suddenly.
Lin Ye found an opening when Morgana adjusted her stance, and both his hands moved in unison.
The Demon Claws instantly flew out, grabbing the center of the Dark Silver chain!
Clang!
The Dark Silver chains writhed like snakes, suddenly stretched taut.
Intense sparks flew, making a grating sound!
No matter how Morgana manipulated the Dark Silver chains, she couldn't break free from the Demon Claws.
All she could do was leave deep claw marks on the surface of the Dark Silver chains.
"Is there any point in continuing?"
The battle in the sky had already been decided. Lin Ye withdrew his gaze.
A subtle, ferocious look flashed across Morgana's face.
This brat really gave it to him...
Did his Demon Claws get an upgrade?
Both the kinetic energy and precision had improved.
Even without Demon One's engine, this guy could still fight her to a standstill.
"You win, kid."
Morgana retracted the Dark Silver chains, unwilling to continue fighting Lin Ye.
She was a little worried that if they kept fighting, Lin Ye would grow to a terrifying extent.
During their previous battles, she had personally witnessed Lin Ye's combat skill evolve from fumbling around like a child to reaching a level comparable to her own.
He was like a black hole, capable of absorbing anything.
Not only could he absorb it, but Lin Ye could also digest it perfectly.
This guy was truly a bit terrifying.
"Then what about our prior agreement?" Lin Ye asked with a slight smile.
He was genuinely curious how Morgana would praise Holy Kaisha.
"What agreement? What agreement? I don't know anything about that," Morgana replied with a clueless expression, shrugging as if she knew nothing.
"That's right, our Queen didn't say anything!" the surrounding demons chimed in boisterously.
Lin Ye frowned slightly, "You're not exactly keeping your word."
Upon hearing this, the surrounding demons burst into laughter.
Promises? What are they worth?
You worked for free, and you still want more?
You want Queen Morgana to praise Holy Kaisha?
Dream on!
"Lin Ye, we demons don't need to follow rules. Agreements are meant to be broken, aren't they?"
Morgana gave Lin Ye a teasing look, as if she were about to teach him a lesson.
"Since that's the case, I will find a way to honor our agreement that you will willingly accept."
Lin Ye didn't react much. With a gentle wave of his hand, the Demon Claws flew back to Morgana's side.
Afterward, Lin Ye instructed a demon to bring Lingxi over.
The demon hesitated for a moment, but due to Lin Ye's pressure, it could only agree and nod.
At this moment.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk. I haven't even drawn up the blueprints for the new generation of Demon Claws, and this brat Lin Ye has already made them."
Morgana circled the Demon Claws, her gaze filled with satisfaction.
She tapped the Demon Claws lightly with her fingers, producing crisp clinking sounds.
It was clear from the sound that Lin Ye had put considerable effort into them.
"Queen, please demonstrate the Demon Claws for us."
A demon shouted loudly.
Morgana chuckled, "What are you shouting about? Since your Queen is in a good mood, I'll show you the correct way to use the Demon Claws."
As she spoke, she slowly raised both her hands, drawing a circle with her left hand and a circle with her right.
However, to her embarrassment.
The Demon Claws remained in place, completely still.
Huh? What's going on?
Morgana frowned and communicated with the Demon Claws internally using a secret key.
She discovered that the key she had set previously no longer worked.
Could this brat have done this?
Morgana turned around and saw Lin Ye's amused expression.
"Guess, the key is easy to figure out. Just think about which faction I belong to."
Lin Ye smiled. Just then, Lingxi also arrived.
"Everyone's here, so I'll be going now."
Lin Ye stood up and walked to Lingxi's side, placing a hand on her shoulder.
With a gentle wave of his other hand, a spatial wormhole appeared above Demon One.
"Goodbye, Queen."
Lin Ye smiled at Morgana and, with Lingxi, leaped into the wormhole.
"Stop that guy for me!"
Morgana seemed to have figured out Lin Ye's key, and her face turned completely red.
The surrounding demons heard her and jumped towards the wormhole.
Ato, carrying his greatsword, was the first to approach. He swung his heavy sword, but it passed through empty air.
The wormhole closed.
"Damn it, this kid is unbelievable!"
Morgana gnashed her teeth in anger and kicked Demon Claws.
What kind of stupid key was that?
It definitely had something to do with that bitch Holy Kaisha!
