Chapter 69: The Gluttonous Demon
"Donn, although it was my men's fault just now, you were too ruthless, right?" said Dorn, frowning.
Before Zhao Xi could speak, Sid on the side said mockingly: "It's worthy of being a nobleman, and he is so skilled at cutting people's tongues, will he cut off our heads in a while?"
Originally, with Dorne's treatment, Zhao Xi's anger had begun to gradually subside, but after he heard Sid's words, an evil fire rushed up from his heart again.
However, considering his current situation, Zhao Xi still endured this anger.
"This thing..."
Before he could finish speaking, a black shadow appeared in the sky enveloping Zhao Xi and Dorn, and the sudden change attracted everyone's attention.
A large, scaly claw slowly stretched out from the circle, still clutching at something in the air.
Zhao Xi looked at the giant claws that stretched out from the magic circle, and a sense of familiarity appeared in his mind, and he always felt as if he had seen this kind of claw somewhere.
After the giant claws were completely out of the circle, they were followed by forelimbs that were also covered with scales.
With the front completely protruding from the circle, the mercenaries under the circle seemed to be able to hear the monster's roar.
"It's a demon! It's a gluttonous demon!"
Cornelia recognized the owner of the giant claw, and shouted loudly to alert the mercenaries around her.
And judging by its size, this gluttonous demon is definitely an adult, and may even be at the peak of its strength.
Compared to Cornelia, it was none other than Sid on the side.
"How is that possible... Isn't the circle supposed to stop, and how can a gluttonous demon be summoned?"
The smile on Sid's face had long since disappeared, replaced by a look of panic that had taken him by surprise.
An angry roar rang out from the other side of the teleportation circle, and the giant claws kept clawing in the air, as if venting something.
"Is it stuck?" asked Dorothy, turning to Cornelia on the side.
"Seems so—" Cornelia wasn't quite sure.
Although the circle in the sky covered a huge area, the open portal of light could only allow the arm of the gluttonous demon to pass through.
After several fruitless attempts, the giant claw slowly retracted, leaving only a bare portal in front of everyone's eyes.
Many mercenaries can only see the world on the other side through the portal, and they can't see the specific things on the other side at all.
Just when everyone wanted to look more closely, an eye the size of a lantern appeared in everyone's field of vision.
This huge eye has a yellow color and elongated pupils that are reminiscent of certain reptiles.
As if sensing everyone's notes, his huge eyes locked on everyone's position, and a trace of indifference flashed in his eyes.
When the ordinary mercenary saw this gaze, he seemed to be targeted by some terrifying predator, and a cold sweat broke out on his back.
"What kind of monster is this?" a mercenary swallowed.
However, his companions around him seemed to be frightened into stupefiing, and no one could answer his question.
However, the terrifying gaze did not last long before it disappeared into the portal, and the world on the other side became dark again.
When the huge eyes disappeared, all the mercenaries breathed a sigh of relief, as if they had escaped a catastrophe.
But before they could relax, a shrill sound came from the teleportation array.
I saw that the two giant claws were at the upper and lower ends of the portal, and they were expanding outward, and the piercing sound just now was the mournful sound coming out of the portal.
"No! he's coming out!" said Cornelia, frowning.
After hearing the words of the clerical girl, the surrounding mercenaries looked even more panicked, just now a look could scare them like this, if such a terrible monster came out, wouldn't they be dead?
Compared with the panic of ordinary mercenaries, several transcendents were much calmer at this time, but they were still cloudy.
Dorn and Cook didn't feel much of the look in their eyes, but they could still sense the terrifying power of the demon on the other side of the portal.
After Zhao Xi saw the yellow glasses, he finally remembered where he had seen this monster, and there was such a demon in the battle in the dream world.
However, this kind of demon was not so conspicuous compared to other powerful demons, so it took Zhao Xi a long time to remember where he had seen him.
Sid, on the side, was full of paleness, especially after seeing that the demon was forcibly propping up the portal, his body was trembling.
The reason why he was sure to summon the Blood Demon was that this Blood Demon was within the Order World, and it wouldn't cost much of his own strength to summon him.
But from the situation over there, it can be seen that this demon is obviously from outside the order, and the consumption of breaking the barrier of order is by no means something that a small transcendent can afford.
In particular, if the opponent wants to forcibly descend, the energy consumed must be deducted from the person who arranged the circle, that is, Sid.
This deduction is not up to the arranger, but is an unrestricted claim that will not stop until the energy is sufficient.
If the arranger doesn't have enough energy, the only end is to be sucked into a dry corpse by this circle, and this is not the kind of consequence that Sid wants to see.
As soon as Cornelia's words fell, the staff in her hand began to emit bursts of golden light, and one after another attack magic flew towards the portal.
She didn't know if such an attack would have any effect or if it would stop the demon from coming, but she had to try.
Otherwise, if this demon succeeded in descending here, everyone present would not be able to escape.
Cornelia's attack seemed to remind Sid, and her trembling body had stopped, and she came to Cornelia in an instant.
Although his face was still so pale, his eyes were very firm at this time.
He drew the great sword behind him and scattered the magic sent out by Cornelia between heaven and earth, turning it into the most basic energy.
Dorne and Cook, who were on the sidelines, were also shocked by Sid's actions, and the two of them couldn't understand why Sid did what he did.
"Really, I was so afraid of death that I was ashamed of God's gift to me. Sid said with a smile.
"Sid, are you crazy, why are you doing this?" Dorn hurriedly stepped forward a few steps in front of Cornelia and questioned Sid sternly.
"Why?" Sid glanced at Dorn and said, "Of course it's to complete the mission!"
"So you're really a demon believer!"
The cold glint in Cook's eyes flashed, and the next second he appeared directly in front of Sid, punching Sid's lower abdomen.
And Sid, who was holding a big sword, seemed to have expected Cook to attack him, and had already dodged Cook's straight punch in advance.
Sid, who had just dodged the fist attack, was about to open his mouth to say something, but he held his greatsword directly across his back.
There was a crunch.
The back of the big sword blocked Zhao Xi's stab like a shield, and the long sword with starlight also left a deep scratch on the back of this giant sword.
"You know what the consequences of this circle will be!" said Cornelia to Sid from behind Dorne's back.
"Of course I do!"
Sid dodged Cook's punch, but was deeply wounded in the lower abdomen by Zhao Xi's long sword on the side.
"But what does it matter if I die! I will prove to the head of the sect that I am definitely better than Lucas! I will never fail even if it is a big mission!"
Dorne and Cook didn't know who Lucas was, but Zhao Xi and the three of them knew each other, especially Zhao Xi and Nelia seemed to be about to have a shocking wave in their hearts.
They didn't expect this Sid to be a member of the Mystery Church, but doesn't this Mystery Church believe in the Three Gods? When did it have anything to do with the devil again?
Even if Lucas had said that the Blood Demon was an oracle, this had been vetoed by Alex himself during the battle.
"Could it be that there have been new changes in this mysterious church in the past few years?" Zhao Xi and Dorothy, who thought of this at the same time, glanced at each other.
"Finally let me catch you!"
An angry roar came from the rear of the convoy, and a golden light streaked across the night sky and swooped down on Sid, who was dealing with the attack of the three.
Sid, who was originally attacked by the three of them at the same time, was already scarred after such a big while, and then he was concentrated in his chest by this golden light, and he flew out directly with blood from his mouth.
The mercenaries on the side were already stupid by the current situation, and they didn't understand why their captain had become a demon believer, and the demon believer shouldn't be that noble boy, right?
Sid's spat blood contained fragments of internal organs, and when he landed, the mercenaries around him heard a muffled sound.
After being shocked, he vomited two mouthfuls of blood, and almost passed out.
The light dissipated, and the person who roared just now was Cass, who was saved by the mercenaries a few days ago.
At this time, he was dressed in ordinary linen clothes, holding a long sword made of golden light, and the bandages on his body had long been removed.
"Sure enough... Ahem... Sure enough, it's you!" Sid said as he watched Cass cough violently.
Cass sneered, "I didn't expect it to be you!"
"Such a rich holy light, I didn't expect it to be you who was sent by Shudrea..."Sid laughed miserably.
"There's so much more you didn't expect!" Cass taunted Sid and walked slowly towards him with his lightsaber in hand.
Sid coughed up a mouthful of blood, and barely smiled at Cass who was walking towards him.
"It's really a strong killing intent, but Mr. Paladin, you will appear a little earlier next time!"
After listening to Sid's words, Cass, who had already walked in front of Sid, was shocked, and quickly swung the long sword in his hand and slashed at the neck of the enemy opposite.
A flash of golden light flashed, and the lightsaber in Cass's hand easily cut off Sid's head, and the demon believer was smiling before he died, looking very strange.
A large amount of blood spurted out from the neat wound, and Cass on the side did not blink his eyes after such a murderous act, but his face was cold.
