Chapter 886: Chapter 492: Could She Be the Truth Mage?
If you think a Demon Lord is simpleminded and dumb, then the only possibility is—you’ve been deceived, just like you believe a swindler would do business at a loss. If he does business at a loss, he will certainly make it back where you can’t see.
The Molten Giant, seemingly at its last gasp, spewing ashes in disarray as if it could extinguish at any moment, suddenly stiffened its body, instantly grew by a third, and its surface became fiery hot, with waves of heat rolling off it.
Even a fool could see it was feigning stupidity, and thinking of the rapid approach of someone, the Wizard immediately shouted, “Attack with all your might, smash it to pieces, just don’t damage the Demon Heart.”
Even at this moment, the Wizard still didn’t want to give up a Demon Heart, and then he saw something that dumbfounded him.
“Fear me, foolish humans, and witness true terror!”
The Molten Giant, with a ferocious lift of its arms, spewed forth sand and stones from the ground along with its arms, though by the time they reached the air, they had melted into scorching magma.
Along with murmurs that seemed to come from the depths of the abyss, the Molten Giant clapped its hands down with a rumble, the very earth seemed to bounce, and from the center of where its hands struck, a massive crack spread outward like a spider web.
The cracks encompassed the spots where the Swordsmen stood, and with a whoosh, a spike of molten rock burst out, piercing through their bodies and impaling them into the air.
Those hit in vital areas died on the spot; those not immediately killed screamed in agony as the high-temperature of the molten spikes cauterized the wounds and prevented blood from flowing out.
About a dozen Swordsmen that surrounded and attacked the Molten Giant were thus impaled.
The Wizard stared in shock, trembling all over. From the moment the Molten Giant’s hands struck down, he felt the eruption of a presence, which was definitely not that of an ordinary Molten Giant, not even that of an ordinary Great Demon.
The Swordsman beside him, who held his sword in both hands, stood petrified, his sword slipping from his grasp and falling onto his foot, causing him to hop around in pain.
The dozen Swordsmen who had been hacking at it were wiped out in one move. With such strength, it had hidden its power, only playing around with them until someone approached from afar, and then it revealed its might.
“Why… why would you do this? You could have killed us yourself, so why toy with us?!” the Wizard asked incredulously and loudly.

“Hey, I was afraid you’d run away. There’s good stuff in your vehicle, I can sense it. Of course, good things should be left for my Lord to unpack. Otherwise, how would my Lord know about my hard work and accomplishments?” the Molten Giant said with a chuckle, speaking unhurriedly.
“Lord… you have a Lord?” the Wizard shuddered, his voice trembling. Such a cunning and powerful being, it actually had a Lord?
“Of course,” the Molten Giant said with a tone of acting like it was nothing out of the ordinary, “Without a Lord, who would protect me? Nonsense.”
Protect you? With that power, you still need someone to protect you? How powerful must that person be?
The Wizard, shaking, crushed a ring in his hand, and the energy waves under the flying vehicle surged. Seizing the opportunity, the Wizard asked, “Demon, what’s your job? Why are you in this desert?”
The Molten Giant replied somewhat sheepishly, “I am for fertilizing the soil.”
“Fertilizing the soil? You cunning Demon, not a single truth comes from your mouth. Even if we chopped you up and buried you, you would just pollute the land, not fertilize it. Goodbye, cunning Demon,” the Wizard cursed.
“Hehe…” the Molten Giant chuckled, without making any response.
Meanwhile, the Swordsmen who hadn’t passed away yet screamed miserably, “Lord, Lord, don’t abandon us! Don’t leave us here!”
Pfft—As the energy fluctuations of the flying vehicle peaked, it made a sound akin to deflating, and the energy quickly died down.
The Wizard was flabbergasted. He stomped on the flying vehicle conveying his urgency, “What’s going on? Move, why won’t you move? Why is the Teleportation Scroll not working?”
“Don’t waste your effort. I could have killed you, but I need to call my Lord. Isn’t it just because I fear you might escape? Hehe, leave the good stuff in the vehicle and then run. I promise I won’t chase after you,” the Molten Giant said with a seductive tone.
The Wizard’s heart tightened, and he hesitated for a moment. The flying vehicle had a defensive formation; if he didn’t run, he might be able to hold on for a while with it, but could it withstand an attack? Considering the Molten Giant’s might when it killed the Swordsmen, the defensive formation of the flying vehicle surely wouldn’t last many hits.
But to run… could he really escape? As he hesitated, all went quiet behind him. Turning his head, he saw the Swordsmen had already jumped off the flying vehicle and were sprinting into the distance.
The Wizard cursed inwardly and also quickly jumped down from the flying vehicle. He slapped on two speeding magic spells behind him and flew into the distance.
He had barely flown a few steps when a Magma Fireball flew towards him.
“Despicable! You are untrustworthy, breaking promises!” the Wizard roared, dodging to the side to avoid the Magma Fireball.
The Magma Fireball hit the ground in front of him, exploding loudly. Sparks and magma splattered everywhere, with several bits hitting him, making the Shield on his body crackle.
From where the Magma Fireball exploded, a smaller Molten Giant slowly emerged, looking puzzled, “Breaking promises? Do you have evidence? Did we sign a contract? Show me, if you have no proof, no evidence, don’t make false accusations.”
While talking, it shot out another smaller Magma Fireball.
