April 28, 10:40 pm.
The small town of Fortuna has long been silent. The people here are just like other cities. No one dares to go out at night. They hide in their homes and seal the doors and windows, but turn on the lights. , hoping that these lights can dispel the frightening darkness in the night and allow dawn to arrive earlier.
But some people are not afraid of the fear in the silent night... At this moment, in the woods not far from Nero's office, several figures are gathering here.
Although Silas had been coaxed to sleep by Ji Liye, they were worried that their discussion would wake Silas up, so Dante, Nero, Tracy, Letty and Nicole set the location of the discussion. here.
During the day, what Silas said really shocked everyone.
Especially Tracy, she is a demon, and she was created by Demon Emperor Mundus to confuse Dante. She has a very similar appearance to Dante's mother Eva. Although she looks human in appearance, she is actually completely different. Demons... Even if they are created demons, in her understanding, the demon world is the hometown of demons. She has always thought so.
However, everything Silas said overturned all her perceptions.
From Silas's words, she learned that the so-called Demon Realm was just a so-called outpost. Behind the Demon Realm, there was a world called the Abyss, which was the home of all the demons in the world. She originally thought that Demon Emperor Mundus was the most powerful and terrifying demon, but through Silas's narration, she discovered that there might be many demons like Mundus in the abyss world...
Every time they thought about this, everyone felt a deep sense of powerlessness and a faint sense of despair, because they really couldn't imagine what it would be like if a group of demons as powerful as Mundus appeared together.
Perhaps, that can be considered the real doomsday...
Nicole smoked silently, Tracy and Letty said nothing, Dante and Nero walked around in place, everyone's minds were in chaos.
Fortunately, this weird atmosphere did not last long. Dante broke the silence first, spread his hands and said: "Hey, don't be like this, are we going to keep doing this until dawn? Let's all express our opinions on how to deal with Serra. This little devil!"
"Do you need to think too much about this?" Tracy said: "Behind that child is a powerful demon lord who is as powerful as Sparta. No matter what he wants to do by letting Silas come to this world, but It will definitely not be a good thing, so my opinion is to nip it in the bud and arrest Silas directly! Or kill him directly! In short, we cannot let him wander around in this world."
"Hey, he's just a child!" Nicole immediately retorted: "Maybe he was just used by his adoptive father, the devil. Can he use such extreme methods?"
But Trish said tit for tat: "It is precisely because he may be used by the devil that he must be stopped decisively. Just because he is a child, should we let him go? You have also seen that Silas is basically a person who is being used by the devil." The child he raises, his worldview and cognition are exactly the same as that of a devil, he is just a devil in human skin!"
"Hey, it's like you're not a devil in human skin!" Nicole's mouth was also poisonous and she retorted: "You are a devil yourself, are you also on the side of the devil?"
"This is not the same!" Tracy said weakly.
At this time, Letty said from the side: "I think Nicole is right. Even if Silas has a devil's world view and cognition, just like you, Tracy, this concept is not irreversible..."
Tracy looked at Letty and shut up angrily.
Although Trish and Letty often compete tit-for-tat when it comes to Dante's affairs, in fact the two women are actually a pair of very good best friends in private. What Letty said at this moment is actually biased towards Trish. , so Tracy couldn’t say anything.
Seeing that the three women had stopped arguing for the time being, Nero quickly said: "Actually, I think we seem to have missed the point. Although Silas's adoptive father is a powerful demon, this is true, but don't you remember? ? Silas said before that it seems that his adoptive father will not be able to come to our world for the time being!"
"That's right!" Dante said: "The more powerful a demon is, the harder it is for it to appear in the human world. I have also discovered this after fighting demons for so many years, and it seems that this rule is not only effective for demons in the demon world, but also for Cypriots. The abyssal world Lars mentioned is equally valid."
"So, we don't actually need to worry about Silas for the time being!" Nero concluded: "What we should really care about is the demon Bible tablet he mentioned. Although we still don't know what the use of this thing is. But we can prepare for the worst: that this Demonic Bible Stele can help Silas's adoptive father, the powerful demon lord, enter our world! In this case, we can find this Demonic Bible Stele before Silas Isn’t that enough?”
"This is also a way!" Letty nodded: "No matter what the devil behind Silas wants to use him for, we just need to destroy his attempt."
"But the biggest problem is..." Dante smiled bitterly and spread his hands: "We have no idea what the stone tablet looks like or where it is..."
"This is actually not a bad thing!" Nicole exhaled a puff of smoke and smiled: "Since even our locals don't know about that thing, it should be difficult for Silas himself to find it, right?"
"That's true..." Tracey nodded and said, "However, we should be afraid of anything. I think that no matter whether Silas can find it or not, we should find a way to get this thing in our hands. As long as we can get it by then." Only by hiding something can we absolutely prevent Silas from succeeding."
"That's what you say, but we don't have any clues!" Dante said, spreading his hands.
"No, maybe someone knows!" Leti said this, staring at Dante closely. Others gradually came to their senses, so all eyes turned to Dante for a while.
Of course, Dante understood what Letty was referring to, and he walked around in confusion.
Dante has indeed never heard of such a thing as the Devil's Bible, but there is one person who may have heard of it, and that is Dante's brother Vergil!
When the demons retaliated and attacked Dante's family, Dante's mother Eva hid Dante and died protecting Dante. Although the events of that year caused trauma to Dante, Eva But it made Dante feel the deep maternal love deep in his heart, so when he grew up, although Dante was rebellious on the surface, he was passionate in his heart, and he could feel more humanity in him.
But Virgil was separated from Eva Dante due to an accident, so that he struggled to survive by himself in the end, and by chance, he went to the devil world, where he could only fight the devil alone, lonely. The difficulty of surviving led Virgil to form a perception that power is everything, and only those with strong power can survive. Especially after learning about the death of his mother, he realized even more Only strong power can protect important things.
It is precisely because of this understanding that Vergil can be said to be very cold when he grows up. The values between him and Dante are thousands of miles apart...
Vergil, who is extremely thirsty for power, has been pursuing the power of their father Sparta everywhere. From the demon world to the human world, Vergil has been following his father's footsteps, so there are people in this world who are interested in Sparta. If Sparta knew the most, then it was definitely Vergil. If Sparta had really held a stone tablet like the Devil's Bible, then the only person who might know its whereabouts would be Vergil.
However, this is where Dante is troubled. He has lost news of Virgil for so long that he has no idea where Virgil is.
The weapon Vergil had always carried with him, the Yama Sword, was now in Nero's demonic right arm. The time when Nero obtained the Yama Sword was during the Demon Sword Order incident five years ago. In other words, It has been at least five years since Dante lost the news of Vergil. If we want to trace it back in detail, it should have been ten years ago that Tracy appeared and led Dante to the "Island of the Blending of Saints and Demons". At that time, Dante met a dark knight holding a sword. At that time, Dante didn't know who it was. Only after defeating him did he learn about it from an identical necklace left by the dark knight. Maybe it's his brother Vergil (Devil May Cry 2 plot).
So over the years, there has been no news from Vergil, and suddenly you want Dante to find Vergil and ask about the Devil's Bible, how is that possible...
"Let's do this!" Dante finally had no choice but to say: "Let's go back first and try our best to investigate some things about Sparta back then. Even though it's a long time ago, we might be able to find something. In addition, the intelligence agent Morrison also has You can try to ask him for help. He has many sources of information, so I don’t know whether he might make any unexpected discoveries... As for Virgil... I don’t think I can count on it..."
"It seems like this is the only way..." Trish turned the gun in her hand. The two guns in her hand were actually one of Sparta's relics, named "Light and Shadow". In addition to Da's gun, there is also a sword of power, but this sword was used to seal Terminig, the high tower in the demon world. There are only a handful of relics left by Sparta. If you want to find the Devil's Bible For the stone tablet, we can only think of solutions from all aspects.
"Silas will stay with you for now!" Dante said to Nero: "You and Nicole take good care of him and don't let him run around. If he really wants to leave, then knock him out and tie him up. !”
Nero shrugged and said: "Let's talk about it when we have to! Anyway, if we really do this, the trust relationship we have finally established with him will be ruined again..."
"But it's better than letting him attract a powerful demon, right?" Dante patted Nero's shoulder and said, "Leave it to you!"
After saying that, he greeted Tracy and Letty, and the three of them drove back to the city where the office was located. Nero and Nicole watched them leave.
Tracy was driving along the way, and Dante was in the passenger seat, resting his head on his hands and saying nothing.
"Virgil, where are you..." Dante thought to himself.
He didn't know if Dante had the attribute of a crow's mouth. What he didn't know was that not long after he left this time, a shaky figure appeared in the small town of Fortuna...
April 30th was the beginning of another incident...
