2 Human Encounters Chapter 242 The War Ends
At this time, Jon no longer had the arrogant look he had just now, his face and body were covered with deep scars, and the severe pain made his eyes have hideous hatred and rage, but in addition to the rage, there was also a trace of deep fear.
"It seems that Mr. Jon has fully understood the true meaning of magic. ”
Compared to Jon, Chen Ming's appearance is unscathed, but it is a fact, but this is not the case, although the power of the forbidden spell is strong, but the consumption is also extremely huge, at this time he has not much combat power, if Jon attacks, then he will definitely die.
"You've me off, you've me off completely!"
The mouth torn by magic, a row of white teeth mixed with blood closed one by one, Jon roared angrily, more powerful than just now, if he still had a trace of contempt just now, then now, there was only a thick fear and anger left in his heart.
He must die!
That was Jon's only thought at the moment, and a magic array quickly appeared in front of him, igniting like an ocean of magical power, raising the temperature around him again.
The flames turned into a monstrous beast and screamed at Chenming.
"If he had gone all out from the beginning, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the slightest chance, an eighth-order demon, it's not so easy to deal with. ”
Looking at the raging raging flames, Chen Ming's eyes drooped slightly, he did not panic at all, but a smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth, "However, my purpose has been achieved......"
The low murmur was like a match, igniting the raging beast, and the infinite flames instantly enveloped Chenming's surroundings.
"Elemental magic, flame enchantment!"
However, just as the flames were about to burn to Chenming's body, his figure was shrouded in another red flame enchantment.
"Boom!"
The sea of fire that slapped against the barrier like a tidal wave did not allow it to appear even a little bit of destruction, but made it more condensed.
"Who is it?"
The attack was thwarted again, making Jon, who was already very angry, even more crazy, and he quickly glanced around, but stopped on the body of a red-robed youth.
"Since you're here, it means he's lost. ”
Chen Ming also raised his head, looking at the young man with a hint of relaxation in his eyes, "Charles." ”
Yes, it was none other than Charles who stopped Jon at this most critical period, it was Charles who fought with Thero, although his aura was still extremely strong at this time, but it was still a lot weaker than just now, he nodded at Chenming, and flew to Chenming's side.
And the next moment, another figure appeared where Charles was just now, it was Selo, but his aura was even worse than Charles's, and his long silky blue hair was scorched black at this time, and it was obvious that in the battle with Charles, he suffered a little loss.
"Mr. Cello, you're just in time!"
Seeing Selo, Jon suddenly shouted excitedly, "Help me kill him together!"
Sailuo ignored it, he set his eyes on Chen Ming's body and said, "I didn't expect that you would really be able to hurt an eighth-order demon. ”
"As I said, I'm strong. ”
Chen Ming smiled slightly and said, "Then next, does Mr. Sailor continue to fight with us?"
After staring at it for a long time, Sailuo's eyes flickered and he shook his head, "This time, we lost, and we will leave." ”
"Mr. Cello!"
Jon roared reluctantly, "They must have something to do with that breath, didn't the organization send us here to investigate this matter!"
"It seems that you still don't understand that you are no threat to me. ”
Charles's eyes were slightly cold, his sleeve robe jumped like flames, and the terrifying magic power instantly came out of his body and blasted towards Jon.
"Charles!"
Sailo took a step forward, and the cold magic began to surge, blocking Charles's flames, "We will leave, it doesn't mean that we can't do anything about you, don't go too far!"
"Humph!"
Charles snorted coldly and withdrew all the flames into his body, "Take care of your subordinates, the next time we meet, I won't be as good as today!"
I will return this sentence to you as it is. ”
Selo breathed a sigh of relief, although if he really fought hard, he and Jon could indeed kill Chenming and Charles, but among them, one of them would inevitably die, and according to Jon's character, this dead person would probably only be himself.
"Mr. Cello!"
"Shut up!"
Jon tried to persuade him, but was stopped by a furious shout from Selo, who turned around and flew straight under the stars.
And he was left alone, even if Jon was unwilling, he could only snort angrily, followed behind Sailor, and left quickly.
"Whew. ”
The enemy retreated, and Chen Ming was also relieved, but he almost fell into the starry sky due to lack of magic, but fortunately, Charles quickly held him up.
"It's finally over. ”
Wiping a handful of cold sweat on his face, Chen Ming smiled bitterly, "It's good that you arrived in time, otherwise I'm afraid it won't end well." ”
"It's just that the next time they attack again, I'm afraid we won't be able to deal with it alone. ”
Charles's eyes rolled, Sailo's strength was almost the same as him, and he was able to defeat it entirely because of the different essential structures of the two.
Charles is a demon formed entirely of elements, he has no body, he does not feel pain and exhaustion, and when fighting people, unless the magic power is consumed too much, there is basically no problem of a decline in combat power.
But Selo has a physical body, he will be tired, he will be in pain, and the reason why he will lose is not because his strength is weaker than Charles, but because his own body cannot withstand the burning caused by the flames, and his combat state will always be inferior to Charles.
"There was a lot of luck in winning this battle. ”
A hint of solemnity also flashed in Chen Ming's eyes, "Next time, even if our opponent is still these two people, our loss will still be very large, not to mention that we have been exposed now, and there will definitely be a large number of masters coming to the magic tower next time." ”
"The only thing that can help us defend against the Demon Tower today is probably the Demon Man. ”
Charles nodded and said, "Not to mention anything else, the current leader of the demons, Atira, has the strength of a transcendent, much stronger than me, if she helps, the next time the magic tower attacks, we can also have the strength to fight." ”
"At the end of the day, it's us who drag you down. ”
Tatsunami said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Charles. ”
Charles was slightly stunned, and shook his head with a wry smile, "You still know that it has dragged me down, but now is not the time to take responsibility, and solving the problem is the most important thing." ”
"Hmm. ”
Chen Ming smiled, a breeze blew, and his body trembled slightly, "Let's go down first, it's weird cold." ”
Charles shook his head helplessly, and swept the sky with Chenming.
The battle in the sky is over, and the war on the ground is also coming to an end, I have to say that the combat power of the demons is still very strong, even in the face of a larger number of Nixus troops, they still have the upper hand.
The war lasted all night, and before the dawn, the last black man of Nicos fell in the pile of corpses, and on the lookout of the fortress, Eddard's face was a little tired, his already huge consumption of magic power, and the night of commanding the battle made him even more physically and mentally exhausted.
However, the joy of victory made the middle-aged man's fatigue dissipate a point, and the return of Chen Ming and Charles also interpreted the end of this defense.
"Thank you again for your help, Mr. Tatsumei, Mr. Charles. ”
He bowed deeply to the two of them, and the joy on Ed's face could not be concealed.
"That's what we're supposed to do. ”
Chen Ming smiled and shook his head, and then said with deep eyes, "But this war is weird, and General Ed doesn't have any doubts?"
Ed's eyes were slightly condensed, and after a long time, he sighed and looked at the battlefield full of corpses below, "I think the reason why you came here at this juncture is because there is a situation in the royal capital, right?"
"It seems that the general guessed. ”
The smile on Chen Ming's face retracted, and he leaned on the railing on the edge with one hand, looking at the rising sun in the distance, "The crown prince's military power was seized, the third prince was placed under house arrest on the border of Hestifo, and those who were stationed fled to the desert and were pursued by angels......"
"The tragedy of 25 years ago, I'm afraid it's not over yet......"
Ed's eyes were dark, and there was a trace of sadness on his rough face, "Brother Heather gave up the change of throne for the sake of Artilla, why doesn't that Emperor Your Majesty understand?"
"Maybe he understands, but he doesn't want to be forced to choose again?"
Glancing at the middle-aged man who was obviously in the prime of life, but his back was a little rickety, Chen Ming said, "I signed a soul contract with Tirestin, promising to help him seize the throne, but now that the church is assisting the emperor, I still need your help in this hard battle." ”
"Those who escaped......"
Ed said bitterly, "How are they?"
"There were some casualties, but they were basically fine. ”
Chen Ming smiled and said, "Calculate the time, it should be almost there." ”
"That's good. ”
Ed nodded, turned around and walked down the observation deck, neither Chenming nor Charles followed, they knew that what Ed needed most now was to be alone and quiet, he needed to lick his wounds.
As Tatsunami said, at noon, the demon army led by Karp finally arrived at the fortress, after learning that Ed's army had just gone through the baptism of a war, they were shocked and a little sad in their hearts, they didn't like war, but war was always unwilling to let go, and the death of their companions made this group of powerful demons cry in a low voice.
Chen Ming also did not disturb them, but took Charles to the battlefield that had been cleaned by the disaster.
Because of Chenming's instructions, the warriors of the demons only recovered the corpses of their companions and did not deal with the loss of the Nikos army, so there were still many corpses on the messy ground, exuding a faint smell of blood.
Walking through the bloody battlefield, Chen Ming and Charles came to a pile of corpses piled up like a hill, most of which had been changed beyond recognition, and even some limbs and heads remained.
The cruelty of magic warfare is the most tragic of all wars, and the dead basically do not leave a whole corpse, and Chen Ming, who saw this scene for the first time, even though there was no expression on his face, but his heart had already turned over.
"Even if the body of the demon that has been sacrificed to life dies, there will be a lot of magic left in its corpse. ”
Charles is accustomed to this, he looked at the mountain of corpses in front of him, and said with a flat gaze, "The reason why our family has survived to this day is still relying on these leftovers, although it is mixed, it is better than nothing." ”
"After hundreds of years of struggle, there are more than a million such corpses, and even leftovers are enough to feed you and your people. ”
Tatsu Ming asked puzzled, "Then why do you want your people to sleep?"
The corners of Charles's mouth were bitter, and he said, "Because the source of the magic power of the magic tower is also war, we have only stolen a small part of the magic power, and there are not many opportunities to make the magic tower retreat like now." ”
"Understood. ”
Chen Ming suddenly realized, no matter how strong Charles is, there is only one person, in the face of the powerful magic tower, he can ensure that his people are alive, it is already a great achievement, how can there be other extravagant hopes?
"Thank you for your assistance this time. ”
Gathering a trace of emotion, Charles smiled, "The magic in these corpses is enough for my people to last for a hundred years. ”
"So long?"
Chen Ming was slightly surprised and said, "You don't plan to go back to hell?"
"The next battle may be several times more brutal than yesterday, and we have to stay at the top. ”
Charles explained, "And I'm not sure if you really have the power to take us back to Hell, I have to leave a way out for my people." ”
Chen Ming heard this, but he could only smile bitterly, although Charles's words were not listened to, but it was true, not to mention the magic tower with an unknown purpose, it was just the church far away in the royal capital, it was already difficult to win with the current situation of the demons, the contract between him and Tirestin was a soul contract, once he could not complete this task, then his soul would no longer belong to him, let alone help the fire demon return to hell, although Charles also signed a contract with Chen Ming, it was far less strict than him and Tirestin, at least he could survive.
"Okay, let's not talk about that. ”
After a brief pause, Charles picked himself up and said, "It's time to get rid of the magic." ”
He took a step forward, his eyes narrowed, and a terrifying magic power suddenly surged, and a magic array appeared in the sky above the corpse mountain.
"Elemental magic, flame drain!"
The sound sounded, and the light of the magic array began to flow slowly, and wisps of strange light fell like red snowflakes, instantly filling the flames when they landed on the corpse.
The ignited corpse emitted a thick stench, and the crackling sparks jumped, but in the thick black smoke, Chen Ming felt a stream of extremely pure magic again, which was absorbed by the magic array and merged into Charles's body.
"It takes a long time to drain mana, and the Majin has just experienced a great war, so they need to adjust and recover. ”
Opening his eyes, Charles' eyes were on the fire, "So in five days, let's go back to the border." ”
"I don't have a problem. ”
Chen Ming shrugged his shoulders, turned around and said, "But I won't stay here with you, I'm going to find the Shaqira and them." ”
After saying that, he stopped staying and walked directly in a certain direction.
Charles sat on the ground, looking at the back of the young man leaving, a trace of inexplicability flashed in his eyes, "I hope this time, we bet right......"
......
Following the faint connection between himself and the black rabbit, Chen Ming finally saw the scarlet in a corner on the edge of the battlefield.
"It's over?"
Shaqiluo leaned against the boulder with her back and the black rabbit in her arms, her eyes were always reluctant to turn to Chenming, as if she was sulking.
"Well, it's over. ”
Chen Ming smiled and nodded, he stretched out his hand and was just about to help the girl up, the girl stood up on her own, threw the motionless black ball in her arms to the ground casually, and then patted her skirt and walked in the other direction.
"Uncle, who is it?!"
Maybe it was because he was hurt, and the sleeping black rabbit immediately picked it up, and swept around viciously, but when he saw Chen Ming with an embarrassed face, he immediately smiled evilly and teased, "Yo, our big hero is back?
Withdrawing his palm, Chen Ming glanced at the black rabbit with gloomy eyes, and said indifferently, "Let you protect her not let you sleep, do you think what I said has no credibility?"
"Cut. ”
Ignoring Chen Ming's anger, the Black Rabbit pouted, "What kind of character is she? She still needs me to protect her?" She wants to hide, even An Mixiu may not be able to find it. ”
"That's why you sleep?"
The young man who had nowhere to steam his anger didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, the magic array in his hand instantly appeared, and the green tendons on his forehead were the same, "Uncle Rabbit, do you want to try the magic of my latest research?"
"Your uncle's Chenming!"
The black rabbit was so angry that he suddenly jumped to his feet, pointed at Chen Ming and scolded, "If you can't coax her, she will take me out of anger, I am your father!"
"I'm your uncle!"
The magic power around Chen Ming's body surged, and as soon as he got his hands on it, it was a seventh-order magic, which frightened the black rabbit and quickly dispersed his body and hid back in the spirit world.
"Humph!"
The young man snorted coldly, then turned to Shaqiluo, who had already walked away, and quickly chased after her, came to her side, and asked in a low voice, "Are you hungry? I'll cook for you!"
"I'm not hungry. ”
The girl shook her head, still not looking at him squarely, "You haven't recovered yet, don't move around much, let's go back and rest." ”
Chen Ming was stunned, a trace of guilt appeared in his heart, and he said dryly, "I yelled at you yesterday, it was me who was wrong, I apologize to you." ”
"I'm not angry. ”
Shakiro stopped, looked up at Chenming, and said, "I just feel like you don't need my help that much anymore. ”
"Uh......"
For a while, Chen Ming was a little like a fish in his throat, at this moment, he seemed to finally understand why Shaqiluo followed him to the world, not only because she wanted him to accompany her, but also because she knew that she was locking his shackles, and she wanted to help him untie the shackles, not to suppress herself because of her.
Chen Ming lowered his head, looked at the girl's eyes that flickered with scarlet flames, and said with a smile, "You have never been my shackles, you are a gift from hell to me, a ...... from heaven."
"I owe it ...... favor"
