Chapter 74 Welcome to Hell
Everything was different from what Doom had planned.

His machine successfully helped him break through the barrier of space, but it didn't carry him straight to the underworld like a magical pumpkin carriage.In the first few hours, his consciousness was on the verge of laxity. He felt like a dust in a suction fan, and his soul was pulled out of his body uncontrollably.

Then he felt as if his consciousness had been accelerated to faster than the speed of light.He screamed and was launched out of the universe he was in, but did not arrive directly at the station.For a while, colorful colored lights flashed wildly around him, reminiscent of the nightclub in Hell's Kitchen in New York; He was writhing all around; for another moment he felt as if he had fallen into some two-dimensional space, he felt as if he had become part of some flat surface, it felt like a cartoon character, even funny
It was endless dimensions and spaces, and he was trying to find his mother's whereabouts from all these worlds, like trying to catch a drop of rain falling into the sea.

His soul kept advancing at a speed beyond understanding, piercing space after space like unstoppable bullets.It seemed to him that he had been wandering for weeks through the vastness and depth of the world, before at last he came to the point he had aimed at when he set out.

hell.

Doom landed on the jagged maroon rock, and in front of him stood what looked like the gate of Hades.The never-ending flames burst from every crevice in the rocks, and they burned vigorously, but they seemed to have no temperature.

Doom narrowed his eyes and began to walk down the rocky path.

When he came to the middle of the gate, a dark mass crawled out from both sides of the path.They clung to the rocks to meet in the middle of the road, and mingled together in front of Doom.The thing twisted and slowly stood up from the ground, gradually turning into a standing entity.

This looks like a reptile.In just a few seconds, it has grown as big as a lion.It has wolf-like sharp fangs, and several meter-long diamond-shaped patterns on its back. Its claws are constantly digging on the reddish-brown dry ground, and it looks like it is ready to go.

"Looks like you're the janitor."

Doom snorted heavily.He quickly sealed his hands and recited a long series of incantations. The gray-green light transformed into a long magic sword in his palm. Point to that hell beast.

It was the basic spell recorded in the black magic book left to him by his gypsy mother, forging weapons to attack or defend, and even the evil spirits of hell could be injured.

The hell creature roared like a demonstration, flashing its lion's teeth and charging forward.Doom managed to avoid his bite, and slashed hard at it with his sword.

But the beast was also very clever.It ducked away from Doom's sword, then opened its mouth and let out a long pillar of fire.There was a smell like an open burnt oven, the flames blasting straight at Doom.This time it wasn't without temperature, it was terribly hot.

Doom jumped away, flames blasting a hole in the rock at his feet.With a roar, he desperately raised his sword and slashed at the monster's neck.The magical blade cut open the monster's neck, and black blood spurted from the wound.

Howling in annoyance, the monster turned and headbutted Doom hard.Doom was not afraid at all, stepped forward, and thrust his sword straight into the monster's mouth.At the same moment, the monster spit out flames again.

The flame passed through half of his body, it was not the burning of the body but the burning of the soul itself.Doom's whole body was on fire, but he gritted his teeth and held on, trying to hand out the blade with almost stubborn perseverance.The magic long sword pierced deeply into the monster's throat, and pierced out from the back of its neck.The hell creature groaned vaguely with the long sword in its throat, its whole body unwillingly turned back into that mass of black matter, and disintegrated with a bang.

Doom half-kneeled on the cold rock, panting heavily.

The long sword gradually changed back to the magic wave and dissipated from his hands. He was exhausted, and his whole body was burned by the flames. It felt like he had been fighting with someone for a week.But he knew he couldn't rest just yet.He forced himself to stand up again with willpower, dragging his tired body forward.

The reddish-brown rocks formed a suspended corridor in front of him. Dum walked along this corridor for a distance of several kilometers, and finally heard the voice that haunted him.

"Victor?"

He raised his head following the sound in surprise: "Mother?"

Absolutely right, that was his mother, wearing the same robe as he remembered, and even her face was exactly the same as he remembered, without any aging.She was enclosed like a bird in a black cage suspended overhead from what appeared to be hundreds of meters above his head.

His mother, Cynthia von Doom, grabbed the bars of the cage with both hands, and instead of being happy, she let out a cry of despair.She yelled: "Victor? God that's impossible. Not here. How could you be here?"

"I'm here to save you, mother." Doom climbed up the rock. "Hold on."

"No! You can't come here, boy! Get away and forget me before it's gone."

too late.The thing that had terrified Cynthia so much had come.

The icy flames rolled in like a whirlwind, forming a funnel-shaped tornado beside the stone steps where Doom stood.The huge red giant gradually appeared in the dancing flame storm, with a huge red face poking out, yellow eyes looking at Doom with undisguised contempt.

Mephisto, the magical demon and ruler of hell.He was attracted by the breath of the living that Doom brought to hell.

The moment that face appeared, overwhelming power enveloped everything.Red thunderbolts shot down continuously from the invisible sky, and the rumbling and rolling thunder seemed to cheer him up.

"Cynthia," he began in a gruff, terrible voice, "this filthy little...wouldn't you have conceived it?"

"My lord, please have mercy, please" Cynthia broke down in tears.

Dum withstood the suffocating pressure and raised his head stubbornly: "I'm here to rescue my mother. No one can stop me."

Mephisto glanced at him contemptuously, then laughed loudly over the thunder that echoed under the endless red dome.

"Very well, very well, Cynthia, you have a very interesting little thing."

He grinned.Group after group of darkness crawled out from the crevices of the rocks, forming strange shapes in front of Doom one after another.There are reptiles like the mutant lions from before, standing creatures with fangs and claws, and even wings that look like vampires in hell.

A total of eight hell creatures surrounded Dum in the middle.And Dum just spent all his strength killing just one, and he hasn't even slowed down yet.

It seems that's all for now.

But Doom still showed no fear.He formed the Dharma seal, and the gray-green fluctuations gathered in his palm like surging water.His eyes shone brightly, like a soldier determined to die.

The monsters let out low growls.The first monster moved, it was a dog-shaped reptile, its whole body pounced up with all its strength, and there was a salty stench in its open mouth.

But it failed to bite Doom after all.

Its body was hit by the fiery light beams falling from the sky halfway, and it was smashed to pieces before it could even scream.

Doom froze.He looked up in the direction where the beam of light descended, and he saw the black and gold armor hanging high in the air, his arms were staggered, and the golden magic circle was held in the palm of his hand. Even the weight of the air is three points lighter.
