Defeat, on the way to the march, this was the thought in the minds of both Jon and the sailors.

After a long march, they finally came to the town of Colendor, located near the city of Akureyri. There were only a thousand inhabitants in the town, and most of them packed up and left the place one after another, at Jon's advice.

They recognized the armbands worn by Jon and the sailors, and understood the meaning of their battles through the news on television. That is the symbol of the BPRD, and in these darkest years of humanity, it represents hope and courage, like the light that people crave most in the darkness.

The inhabitants all hugged Jon and the sailors before leaving town, the young men looking at them with adoring eyes, while the older generation was more quietly wiping away tears, and most of these young lads would not be able to return home.

"The residents have been evacuated. The Messenger reported to Jon what was going on.

"Keep everybody as scattered around town as possible. Jon spread out a map of the town of Colondor borrowed from the mayor's house on a table. "We are now carrying out a tactic of attrition, and the core of this tactic is to reduce the enemy's physical strength and strength as much as possible. They weren't familiar with the place, but we had all the maps here, so we had an advantage. ”

"Chief of Staff, we don't have many troops left, at best there are only a few hundred, so do we have to continue to disperse?" the signal soldier expressed his concern.

"The point is containment. Jon knew what they were in, but he had to execute the only tactic that worked. "Our only hope now is for the Shore They, according to the orders of the headquarters before my departure, if the 'Nautilus' loses communication for more than twelve hours, then the headquarters will send other ships to investigate the situation. ”

"Will we get them out with our lives?" asked the communications man.

Jon glanced at the young messenger in front of him and replied in a slightly bleak tone, "This is what we must do, our lost lives will be the hope of mankind, please be sure to convey this to everyone as well, if they want to blame me, I have no complaints." ”

"No kidding, we won't blame you, Chief of Staff. The signal soldier laughed, and the smile on his young face was like the sun. "Won't we be like Captain Seth, we've been waiting for this day since we joined the BPRD, and today we're finally going to fulfill our vows. ”

That's right, we've got nothing to fear. Through the window of this room, Jon could clearly see the black crush figure of the pursuing Hell Legion. But now he has no fear at all, and all that remains in his heart is the consciousness of this last battle.

At this moment, in the main port of Akureyri, Beelzebub's battle with Team X had begun.

Even when one person faced four people, Beelzebub was not afraid at all, and he always maintained a relaxed smile on his face, which seemed to others to be a naked mockery.

It was impossible to get close to his body at all, which was the consensus of everyone after the first round of attacks. It was as if an endless swarm of flies surrounded him layer by layer, and even if one layer was removed, another layer would be generated in front of him, so that all their attacks would be in vain.

"There are too many of them to get rid of all the flies. Shore raised his hand and motioned for everyone to stop attacking first, this kind of physically exhausting but useless thing was not what he wanted to see.

"If there is no way to get rid of it by physical means. Ye Xiang stared at the sea of flies and had an idea. "And what if you set a fire and burn them all out?"

"Do you want to use that?" Xiao Er heard Ye Xiang's words, "If it were you, maybe you could really do it." ”

"Then I'll take you as an approve. Ye Xiang took a step forward, and a pale blue flame gradually began to burn around him, and the scorching flame made the air become hot and dry, so that the three people standing beside Ye Xiang had to subconsciously retreat.

"Burn, Soul Seal: Stygian Fire. The pale blue flames surrounded Ye Xiang, and the blazing heat caused the surrounding steel pillars to soften and melt. Feeling the strong stirring brought by his soul, Ye Xiang was raising the power of the Hellfire to the effect he needed.

"Soul Seal Liberation, Dark Fire Dragon King!" The Dark Fire coiled around Ye Xiang suddenly began to transform, and finally formed the image of a majestic Chinese dragon. "Annihilate evil with the breath of the dragon, roar, dragon king!" Ye Xiang pointed at Beelzebub, and the dragon formed by the pale blue flames immediately rushed towards Beelzebub with a posture of burning everything.

"This power, it's really interesting. Beelzebub looked at the oncoming flame dragon, but he didn't have the slightest idea of dodging. "Let me see if you can break through the impregnable defense!"

The endless sea of flies also sprang into action, defending Beelzebub in the center of them like a barrier after barrier. These flies have no emotion and do not feel fear, and instead of dodging the flame dragon, they choose to resist it head-on. The black sea of flies and the pale blue flame dragon form a three-dimensional painting with vivid colors.

But after all, flies can't be compared to flames, and in just a few seconds, the winner can already be distinguished: in the face of the dragon king's blazing flames, most of the flies have melted before they have even touched the flames, and those flies that come into contact with the flames cannot form a strong defensive wall, and they are all reduced to ashes almost instantly.

"Is there such a blazing flame?" Beelzebub watched as the dragon broke through the barrier formed by the sea of flies, layer after layer, with a speed that was noticeably faster than he had expected. "But there will be times when the flames will burn out, how long can you hold on!"

Beelzebub's body began to split, and countless flies flew out of his body and threw themselves into the queue that served as a barrier. But now the number of flies was just a drop in the bucket, and the dragon king burned everything that came close to him, and finally it broke through the barrier that had bothered everyone.

"It's so fast, it's impossible—" Beelzebub was consumed by the flames before he could finish his words, and the flies that had formed the defensive net disappeared without a trace at the same moment, as if they had never existed in this world.

Beads of sweat oozed from Ye Xiang's forehead, and the fatigue swept through his whole body like the last time he used the Dragon King, and he felt that his legs were about to lose their feet the moment he saw the flames engulf Beelzebub.

When he was about to fall, Shore helped him from behind in time: "A guy like you can't fall here, I will never allow this to happen." ”

"Sure enough, this happens every time you use Liberation. Ye Xiang took a breath and said, "After all, this is the power obtained by burning the soul, and the load on the body is still too heavy." ”

"That's amazing, Vice-Captain. Raven couldn't help but marvel at Beelzebub's figure completely disappearing into the flames. "The sea of flies that none of us can break through is actually burned by you with one move, and there is nothing left, what a terrifying move. ”

"What a terrifying move!" Beelzebub's voice suddenly came out like a ghost, causing everyone who had just relaxed to immediately enter a state of alert again.

"Isn't this guy really going to die!?" Nicholas searched for Beelzebub's figure, his eyes racing with anger. "Stop playing this game of peek-a-boo, you bastard, get out of here! villain! coward, get out and fight me!"

"Little ghost, I've already fought you once, and you can't kill me with your ability. Beelzebub's voice echoed around them, but they could not find any sign of his location.

"Judging by the sound, it should be very close to us. Shore listened carefully to the voice analysis, "But if he is so close to us, how can he hide his body so perfectly, does he have the ability to be invisible?"

"It's not stealth!" Ye Xiang looked at the ground and suddenly his eyes sharpened, he suddenly pointed to a shadow not far from everyone and shouted: "Run! He has surrounded us now! If we don't retreat, it's too late!"

"Surround us? what the hell is this—" Xiao Er followed the direction of Ye Xiang's finger and saw a scene that shocked him.

Yes, Shore swore he was absolutely not mistaken, the shadow on Ye Xiang's finger was moving. And now there were shadows moving not only in the place of his fingers, but also large shadows moving towards them in all directions around them, and these shadows had formed a posture of encircling them.

"Buzzing ......" The chirping of flies, which had disgusted everyone, rang out, and what one could not have imagined was that these chirpings were coming from the shadows that had surrounded them.

In an instant, the black shadow spread, and out of the shadow flew out a large swarm of flies, and these swarms of flies did not revert to Beelzebub's body as before, but flew directly towards everyone.

"Retreat!" Shore snapped, and the others immediately reacted and ran towards the densely populated town.

The sea of flies chased after them, and the flies were several times more powerful than they were to be used as a defensive barrier. The sea of flies swarmed and pierced the heavy concrete walls, devouring all living creatures they could reach, and they rained down on the earth, sending shudders to everyone who saw the black ocean.

"Take it well. A small swarm of flies reconstituted Beelzebub's ontological image on the roof, and he looked at the fleeing X-Team and smiled, "No one can escape this move, this terrifying Dark Worm Hell is an existence capable of devouring everything, and you have no chance to escape." ”

While being devoured by the Flame Dragon, Beelzebub unleashed the ability to demonize the Darkworm Hell, merging his body into the shadows, along with the remaining sea of flies in the shadows, which was the real reason why the flies suddenly disappeared for no apparent reason.

It is said that the Fourth Prison under Beelzebub's control is a terrifying place, and the souls who enter it are not tortured by torture instruments and are not imprisoned, and it is simply a paradise compared to other hells.

But there's something even more terrifying than the other hells, those things that lurk in the shadows around you, and before anyone else notices, they suddenly rush up and devour that poor soul. There is no physical torture, but instead there is endless mental pain, which is the true face of the Fourth Prison.

It was Beelzebub's pleasure to hide in the shadows and play tricks on these spirits, and it was interesting to watch them flee in all directions because of sudden fear. And now Beelzebub wants to bring that fear into the present.

"Is this demonization?" Xiao Er asked Ye Xiang breathlessly, "Is this the same type of ability that Ender used when he fought with Astaroth?"

"That's right, the terrifying abilities used by the thirteen demon lords are what we call demonization. Ye Xiang replied as he ran. "It's an extremely powerful power, and it's an ability that only those demon kings can use. I've heard of it before, but I've never seen it before, and I didn't expect this power to be far beyond our expectations. ”

"What's more, this guy is the gluttonous eater of the Seven Sins, and his demonic power is probably on par with Astaroth, which is simply terrible. Raven shouted and glanced back, and saw that the flies were still growing faster.

"What now, Captain?" called Nicholas, "it's not a solution if we keep running, we have to find a way to solve the situation. ”

That's right, you have to find a way to get out. Shore wiped the sweat from his face, calculating all the possibilities in his mind, but now whatever ideas came to his mind were quickly rejected by him. No, no, no! Damn, I can't think of a way around at this point.

Beelzebub sat on the roof admiring the farce he had made, the corners of his mouth unconsciously raised: "Let me see what the imp who can kill Leviansen is, I really want to see your rumored incomparably powerful ability." ”

The sea of flies was sweeping everything in front of him, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer, and Shore's brain was running rapidly, and finally came to the conclusion he wanted. If I want to save everyone, I'm going to have to use that, and it's dangerous for me, but there's no way around it.

He turned his head to look at the "black ocean" that was devouring everything, but his inner thoughts became more and more determined. We must not stop here, I must forge the path of hope, not only for ourselves, but for the future of humanity, and I must do so no matter what!
