Chapter 118 Demons and Deities Part I
The fierce onslaught ultimately failed to reach the demon’s location.
Just as the endless golden light was about to hit the black sphere, less than twenty meters away, and was about to blast through the condensed black fog, suddenly, they heard a dragon’s roar that echoed across the sky, followed by a violent storm that arrived instantly!
“Roar—!!!”
The roar was like a surging tsunami, stirring up dust and wind, spreading out from inside the black sphere like an explosion, sweeping across the darkened sky with unparalleled force, crashing into everyone’s ears.
“Ahhhh—”
The old priest, the monks of the faith group, and the few remaining knights still fighting the evil spirits covered their ears immediately. Some dropped their swords, others roared in agony from the pain in their eardrums. The world at that moment was filled only with the “buzzing” sound of bees. Amidst this noise, a pale giant dragon suddenly emerged from the black fog within the sphere.
Buzz—
It opened its mouth filled with fangs, its cruel blood-red maw spewing out a thick, blinding white beam of light. This beam instantly shattered the sky full of spears, followed by even denser rays of holy light!
Boom boom boom boom boom—!!!
The explosions echoed continuously in the sky, countless miracles were almost instantly shattered under the brutal energy of the dragon. The terrifying light column was unstoppable, striking the earth and the knights who had lost all resistance in an instant. Their bodies disintegrated in an instant, and they didn’t even have time to scream.
The terrifying energy column ravaged the scorched earth, sweeping through the ranks of the monks behind, blasting open a fiery chasm in the ground, carrying with it countless rising ashes, disappearing on the horizon.
“Deities…”
In the air filled with the scent of death, the old priest was knocked out of the sky by the roar, breaking his leg bone. He sat on the ground dazed, while a monk hit by the light column lay beside him, his remaining half-body oozing organs. The monk’s consciousness seemed not yet to have completely faded, his hollow eyes staring at the dimming sky, his mouth slightly open, but no words came out.
“Deities—!!!”
The old priest cried to the heavens, his hazy eyes filled with despair: “Are you even watching us… watching what is happening on this land…”
Rumble rumble rumble rumble…
Ahead, amidst the earthquake-like tremors, the endless tide of evil spirits completely engulfed the last few knights still putting up a fight, surging over them.
…
On the scorched earth where the mud spread, the wind gradually calmed down.
Rumble—
Crimson lightning streaked across the rolling black clouds. The black sphere below had vanished at some point, the terrifying torrent no longer flowing to the earth. The white dragon was long gone, leaving only the small demon, her wings spread wide, hovering steadily in the bright lightning.
“…There’s one more.”
She looked down at the black tide that had swallowed the First Knight Order but was still surging and spreading further, whispering to herself. Her face, delicate like a doll’s, showed no expression.
Only her eyes, the same red as the lightning, quickly searched for targets in the distance—soon, she saw the lone monk fleeing westward on a beast, in disarray.
“Hmm.”
” Hmm.”
The little devil chuckled lightly.
She did not rush to chase after, but instead swung her arm suddenly. As the black mist surged, the ghostly tide expanding below the ground instantly turned into endless gray fog. The gray fog floated upwards as if it would cover the entire sky. The fog rolled up into a massive whirlwind hundreds of meters high under the clouds, all rushing towards the girl and entering her body.
In an instant, the rampaging ghosts vanished as if they had never appeared. Only the boundless dark abyss left below remained, an endless sea of death replacing the once tranquil town. From that moment on, the place called “Mase” completely disappeared from this world, along with the simple faces of those who once lived there.
The girl slowly raised her head in the gray sky, closing her eyes.
Those faces seemed to flash through her heart at that moment.
But it was only for a fleeting instant.
In the next moment, when she opened her crimson eyes again, her body clad in black armor burst forth, the flaming bat wings behind her flaring violently. It flickered several times in the gray sky before plunging toward the barren land with a piercing wind howl. Her posture was like that of a雄鹰 hunting prey, but far more terrifying.
Below her field of vision, young Bishop Alersta heard the wind approaching. He hastily turned back on his beast’s back and saw the demon already swooping in from the low altitude behind him. White mist condensed around the black armor, and the sound of sonic booms echoed incessantly. The distance between them was already less than three hundred meters.
That distance was closing rapidly.
“Cursed hell—!!!”
Alersta’s scalp exploded in shock, letting out a scream that tore his voice. In his panic, he threw out a miracle towards the rear, golden light suddenly shooting out from the buzzing. The unicorn beneath him ran at full speed, and huge chains formed a giant net rising from the ground with a clattering noise. Several golden chains writhed like snakes, rising higher into the sky, attempting to block the terrifying figure charging towards them.
But in the next moment, as the figure approached with a fierce roar, the chains were swayed uncontrollably by the hurricane. The large net was disrupted by the airflow, and the chains couldn’t stabilize in the strong wind. Panicked Alersta turned back again and saw the demon seemingly swing a simple punch forward. That punch shattered all the swaying chains into pieces!
Bang—!!
Amidst the loud thud, golden fragments exploded across the sky. The air surged even more wildly, and the miracle he had fully unleashed was as fragile as paper in front of her, unable to hinder her in the slightest, dissolving into pieces and dispersing.
This wasn’t the strength she should have possessed…
But what good did it do to think about these things now?
“Go—”
Alersta’s face tightened, cold sweat soaking his robe. His body was shaking uncontrollably; he could no longer think about anything. All he could think of was “to die.” Family, honor, the flame of life, mission—all of these meant nothing compared to his own life at that moment.
麻木的逃窜,拼命催促着角马加速奔跑,耳边只剩下风呼啸而过的声音。等到第三次回头确认恶魔追到了哪里时,年轻的男子忽然发现,在那金色光影炸开又逐渐消散的过程中,少女那凛冽的身影早已消失不见。
完了…
He flashed this thought in his heart.
And in the next instant, the unicorn beneath him flipped over!
