The blood pool in the center of the altar was boiling with bubbles, and red blood mist was steaming and spreading everywhere.
The passage in mid-air has expanded to nearly twenty meters in diameter.
Behind the entrance, a huge light group is expanding. All the demons looking up at the passage know that when this light group finally expands to a certain extent, it will be like a huge magic cannon, suddenly blasting open the abyss.
and the prohibition of the outside world, opening up a passage to the outside world.
"A thousand years ago, I was still a level four demon living on the second level." In the silence, the voice of the red demon Banksal rang.
"At that time, I only knew instinctive killing. Killing my own kind. The warmth on their bodies attracted me, and I couldn't help but want to devour them."
"I don't know how long it took, but I was finally promoted to a fifth-level demon and reached the third level. One day, I suddenly woke up from my confusion, got to know myself, and got to know the world. I knew this place was called the Abyss.
You also know that we are called devils."
As he said that, Banksal frowned, "I hate the name devil."
Thousands of demons gathered around the altar, all watching Banksal quietly and listening to his words.
"This name was given to us by those guys who came in from the outside. I don't like it. However, I can't object. I can't give us a nice name again, because everyone calls us that, and our tribe also calls us that.
If you change your name, they won’t know who you are referring to."
"I told a demon that we called the Abyss Man. It was confused and annoyed. It thought I had a strange name and kept roaring at me. Then I ate it."
"Then I thought of a nice name, Yuan Ling, and told it to another demon I met, but it didn't like it either. So I had to eat it again. It didn't taste as good as the last one."
"There are many times... these guys are all idiots. They all think I am a demon with a sick brain. They roar at me and want to take my heart away. But they can't beat me. I always
I can kill them easily, even if some of them are stronger than me."
"Do you know why?"
"Because I'm smarter than them and I like to think."
"Those foreign races are very smart and like to think. They have many things that only smart people can make. Weapons, armors, and magic scrolls. Even their clothes are so beautiful. More importantly,
They taste great. I love eating them."
"I've been thinking why we can't go to the outside world and have to be imprisoned in this cage. I think there must be many demons who have the same idea as me. They would rather fight for the person who summoned them than stay in this cage.
In the devil's space, it's like staying in a transparent bag and looking at the world. I don't want to come back."
"Finally, I determined that this is our instinct. We are a race that longs for the light." At this point, Banksal seemed to find it a little funny and let out a strange laugh.
"I remember that ever since I was a confused little devil, I liked to stay at the entrance of the abyss and look at the hazy light coming from the outside. As time went by, I saw many devils rushing past where I was hiding.
, rushed towards the door. But those terrible restrictions will turn these not-so-smart guys into a ball of black energy."
"Our instincts push us up, but our bodies push us down. It makes me uncomfortable."
As he spoke, Banksal opened his arms and spiked wings and spun around: "Later, when I was promoted to a sixth-level demon, I discovered this place. At that time, I came here to escape the clouds and storms.
Then, as you know, I was captured by the magic circle and sent here.
I walked around this place and then left through the passage opened by the central platform.
This was a very boring experience, and I survived here. But I got nothing. But I don’t know why, but I can’t forget this place.”
"Later, I followed Master Sabonis. I remember that when I met him, I was just a level 10 demon. I thought I was very strong. But Master Sabonis made me lie down for five years with just one little finger.
It took ten years to recover from the injury. I asked the adults why they didn't eat me.
The adult said that he was not very hungry at that time.
And more importantly, he thinks I'm very smart. Much like how he used to be. He needs to keep a smart devil to chat with him, instead of throwing it into his mouth like a small broad bean. My strength is to him
, is really too insignificant.
I have heard many legends about Lord Sabonis.
It is said that ten thousand years ago, Master Sabonis once led the demon army out of the abyss. At that time, if those guys in the outside world did not fight for their lives, and if the big shots at that time were not too cautious, Master Sabonis almost succeeded. But
Even if he was driven back to the Abyss, his experiences made him the greatest ruler in the history of the Abyss."
"Now, Master Sabonis has returned to the Abyss and left us. That dirty and ugly guy Bergnich will replace Master Sabonis and become the new ruler of the Abyss."
"In the abyss, I, Banksar, am just a small figure. Logically speaking, whoever becomes the ruler of the abyss will not pay much attention to my existence.
However, I am Lord Sabonis' personal guard and the person he trusts most...
Any idea what this means?
This means that Bergnich will put us on his purge list and will attack us soon. Not only will no one stand up and speak for me, but they will be happy to add insult to injury."
"When I die, you will also die. They will take over my Montenegro territory, take over everything from me, and turn you into food in order to go further up the devil's pyramid."
Speaking of this, Banksal's face showed a hint of loneliness and reminiscence.
After a long time, he said slowly: "I knew it would be like this, so I spent hundreds of years decorating this place. When I heard the story of Master Sabonis, I knew that this place could replicate what you had done back then."
Miracle.
This place was built six thousand years ago. It was built forcibly by a damn giant who was prevented by Lord Sabonis. The Lord fought with him several times, but no one could do anything. Later, they were unwilling to continue fighting.
, a certain tacit understanding was reached. Master Sabonis recognized the existence of this magic tower, and the giant never challenged his authority.
Later, the giant died.
Before he died, he went to the bottom of the abyss to find Master Sabonis. They drank a lot of wine and talked a lot.
Therefore, when I mentioned this to the adults one day and mentioned my plan, the adults had a strange expression. Originally, it was impossible for me to complete this altar with my strength. Fortunately, Mr. Sabonis helped me. He thought that I could
Complete what he failed to accomplish ten thousand years ago and lead the devil into the new world."
"And this day has finally arrived. As long as we use the blood of these humans to launch the blood sacrifice and open up a passage, we will be able to descend into the outside world without fear of the sun. And once we gain a firm foothold, those guys will also be tempted.
. Even Bergnich, I’m afraid, can’t stand such temptation.”
"So, I will become a hero of the demon clan," Banksal's face showed a hint of fanaticism, "a pioneer who fulfills Master Sabonis's wish and leads the demons to occupy the outside world. Instead of being like a pathetic person.
Die under the filthy claws of Bergnich and his bastards."
The huge wings opened wider and wider, shaking gently in the darkness.
"Hooka!"
In response to Banksal, thousands of demons let out a deafening roar.
As the demon roared, the passage above the altar suddenly changed. At the entrance of the passage, the cross-shaped rotating crack suddenly turned into a slowly opening vortex. The diameter expanded to nearly thirty meters. And the expansion behind the entrance
The light group suddenly lit up at this moment.
The next second, a terrifying beam of light shot out.
This beam of light traveled through the void. Like a giant dragon, it went straight upwards, passed through the three levels of hell, and plunged into the sealed black air at the entrance to the abyss.
The Abyss Restriction began to churn violently, like a pot of boiling oil being poured into a ladle of cold water.
The light pillar was also trembling, constantly resisting the siege and erosion of the black energy, and advancing slowly but resolutely. I don't know how long it took, and finally, like a wild horse that escaped the quagmire, the light pillar suddenly rushed out of the ground and hit the sun.
bright sky.
At the same time, a loud bang broke out in the underground garden. The vortex above the altar suddenly opened and turned into a red door.
Seeing this gate, the demons became even more crazy. They roared crazily, crowded forward, grinned, and couldn't wait. Even the eight eleventh-level demons around the altar were excited. They roared and showed their mouths
Its fangs and claws waved, its figure expanded rapidly, and its terrifying aura continued to climb.
"The blood sacrifice channel has been opened!" Banksal roared to the sky, "Kill out. Go to our new world, let us bathe in blood under the sun!"
……………
Time passes minute by minute.
When Roy walked up to the third floor under the gaze of three bone dragons, in the distant sky, a sky magic ship with the logo of the Magic Guild was flying towards the south at an extremely fast speed. Dozens of lions
The eagle knights guarded the ship. The waving wings of the griffins cast huge moving shadows on the ground, and their chirping sounds echoed across the sky from time to time.
In Lurian territory, a huge team of knights is galloping south. They are like the wind passing by the evading pedestrians. The iron armor and lances reflect the sun, and the sound of horse hooves is like a strong wind and rain. Each side is embroidered with battle ax marks.
The flag buzzed as it flew.
In the palace conference room, Edward frowned and stared at the map in front of him. All around, the imperial nobles, ministers and military generals were arguing endlessly. The attendants and royal knights were passing back and forth, and from time to time, a fast horse would gallop out of the palace, hurriedly away.
go.
In the dark and dilapidated garden, mercenaries covered in blood and scars were fighting in groups, back to back, among the endless demons. Some people kept falling down, screaming and dying. The remaining people were just
He was fighting mechanically, and all he could see in his eyes was growing despair.
And the most important thing is that at two o'clock in the afternoon on this day, a vortex finally appeared above the entrance of the Lurian Abyss.
The valley was a scene of chaos.
The war horses neighed and stepped anxiously. More than two thousand fully armed knights formed a huge circle. Everyone was nervously watching the expanding whirlpool above the entrance level, and the palms of their hands holding weapons were already
Full of sweat.
On a hill not far away, Adolf and many lords and generals looked solemn.
When they saw this vortex, everyone knew that the worst ending they expected was no longer a guess, but actually appeared before their eyes.
Soon, the whirlpool turned into a huge red light door. A terrifying aura. With the red door as the center, it spread endlessly. Although the devil had not been seen yet, people seemed to have felt the vibrations on the ground.
, and heard the manic roar.
"Stabilize the formation!"
"Archers prepare!"
Seven or eight heralds galloped at high speed in front of the formation. In the ranks, officers' orders came and went.
More than two hundred high-level archers with strength above Glory occupied the surrounding high points. They drew their arrows and put them on the bow strings, staring at the light door. Behind the knights, there were thousands more
The archer raised the bow diagonally toward the sky and determined the angle.
The shaking of the earth became more and more violent, the roar in the light door became louder and louder, and the atmosphere became more and more tense.
Finally, everyone saw the light door suddenly light up, and an eighth-level silver-clawed demon broke through the thin layer of red mist shrouding the door and rushed out first.
This eighth-level silver-clawed demon moved very quickly. It was like a shooting star, rushing towards the knights in front. There was no hesitation, no pause or observation, but only incomparable violence and ferocity.
Whoosh whoosh! Three level eight shooters standing at the front of the team took action almost at the same time.
The three feather arrows pierced into the Silver Claw Demon's body as fast as lightning, and the huge impact made its huge body fly backwards as if it had hit an invisible wall.
Almost at the same time, the light gates flashed one after another. Countless demons rushed out. They were running and crowded together in a mess, like mudslides rushing down the canyon!
"Fire the arrow!"
Following the officer's order, a dense back-numbing string sound sounded in the valley. Countless arrows rose into the air like locusts, passing through the air in a smooth black parabola, and fell into the charging demon.
In the group.
Puff puff puff...
The sound of arrows piercing the demon's body was like a lotus pond under a strong wind and rain.
Demons fell one after another in the rain of arrows. Some of them were shot through the chest, some were shot through the lower abdomen, and some were simply nailed to the ground. Their wounds exploded with clouds of sparks. They even turned into whole bodies.
A ball of burning lava collapsed.
But more demons were running crazily. The fallen companions beside them seemed to have no impact on them. Even if they were hit by arrows, as long as they missed their vital parts, they would only pause for a moment before becoming strong again.
It was extremely difficult to catch up with the team again.
The black torrent and the exploding sparks formed a heart-stopping scene in the valley. Viewed from the air, the exploding fire formed a red streamer. And below the streamer, a large expanse of black looked like ink.
It usually blends out.
After only three rounds of bows and arrows fired by the human army, the vanguard of the demon army had already closed the distance to the first line of defense to within two hundred meters.
Behind the demon tide, more demons were still rushing out of the light gate. Their number was so large that it even caused local crowding outside the gate. Many demons could not wait for the team in front to evacuate and turned to other places.
Charges were launched from both sides.
At this moment, everyone's hearts have sunk to the bottom.
This round of bow and arrow coverage was carefully designed after repeated planning. To this end, Fano mobilized all the archers in the army and filled them with arrows that could cover every inch of the open space at the entrance to the abyss. For this purpose,
It is to ensure the density and intensity of the arrow rain and give the demon that just emerged a head-on blow.
From the perspective of the entire campaign, this is the time when the demons are most vulnerable. This round of arrow rain will cause them huge casualties. Besides being passively beaten, they have no ability to fight back.
Everyone hoped that the demon could be severely damaged at this stage, and it would be best to force it back into the light door. However, it now seems that this is just an unrealistic fantasy.
Although demons continued to fall and demons were injured, the chaos and collapse as imagined did not occur.
These damn demons, with their numbers and ferocity far exceeding expectations, managed to withstand this wave of arrows. In front of them, the torrential arrows were just some small sticks thrown into the flood, which seemed so...
Sparse, so insignificant.
Looking at the demon in front of me, the valley fell into deathly silence at a certain moment.
Neither the archers shooting arrows nor the knights holding lances could hear any sound. The demons swarming in front of them were like a mime, and all they could hear was the neighing of war horses.
and panting, just my own violent heartbeat.
At this moment, Adolf's voice rang out.
"It seems that we still underestimated the difficulties we face."
In the magic amplification array, Adolf's voice was a little tired and hoarse, sounding as if he was far away.
"This is the worst era. Three hundred years ago, we lost the land where we thrived and were driven here by the demons, struggling to survive. Three hundred years later, our life-and-death enemy crossed the Duantian Mountains again with the intention of
Drive us out and kill us all..."
"In the north, countless people are dying. The war has spread to the east, west, and south... We are retreating every day. One day, we will be driven to the seaside, like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered, with no way out.
Can escape."
People listened quietly. Amidst the louder and louder noises, the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air, and the approaching footsteps and roars of the devil.
Adolf's voice was getting closer and closer, right next to his ears.
"This is an apocalypse. A world that declares the end of our race. It is fate that makes us born in this era, with no choice. It is fate that makes us stand here and puts our children, our families, in our lives.
Behind you."
"And now, even the demons of the abyss are here. In their eyes, we are just their food. Can you imagine the last human being in a pool of blood? Can you imagine our relatives being slaughtered like lambs?
What does it look like?”
Adolf's voice echoed in the valley. His tone was not passionate, it was as calm as stating a fact that everyone already knew. But for some reason, at this moment, everyone just felt like their blood was being filled with something.
It was lit.
"Are you willing? I am not willing. All I have is anger."
"I don't know how others will face this disaster. But as knights, we have only one answer. We are born in this era, this era that can write our own names in history. We stand on the edge of the cliff, but
We are still alive and still have the strength to fight!"
"Yes, fight! Until the death!"
In the field of vision, the demon tide was getting closer and closer. The knights could already see their ferocious faces, long fangs, and even smell their breath with a hint of sulfur.
Adolf's voice became louder and louder, and he suddenly pulled out his long sword. The sound of metal friction between the scabbard and the blade made everyone feel an electric current crawling up their backs. At this moment, everyone
Everyone saw him galloping down the hillside.
The trumpet sounded, and the passionate drum beat sounded, deafening.
Adolf's flag flew through the separated ranks and over the densely packed helmets, like a firebird flying over the sea.
"Follow me!"
Adolf said to every knight he met. In a blink of an eye, he was at the front of the team. The horsemen stood up, pointing their swords directly at the sky.
"Let's drive these sons of bitches back!"
At this moment, everyone's blood was completely ignited. The knights roared with all their strength, urged their horses, and galloped towards the demon.
The blood is burning in the body, the wind is whistling in the ears, the light of the battle ring is more dazzling than the sun, the iron hoofs of the war horses turn over the soil, shaking the earth. The steel armor reflects the hard and cold light. The raised lance is like
The steel forest that pierces the sky.
The two torrents are getting closer and closer. One hundred meters, eighty meters, fifty meters...
"Ping gun!"
Following the officer's order, the knights galloping at lightning speed neatly leveled their lances.
"kill!"
Boom! The last gap in the earth was filled by the torrent, and a loud noise suddenly exploded from the center of the collision. Countless demons and countless knights were thrown overboard in this no-show confrontation, and their stumps and broken arms flew into the sky. War horses
His screams and angry roars resounded throughout the world. . . . .(.)
