Chapter 298: The Jungle Eats the Strong
"Hahaha...... In the demon world, what is there to talk about despicable, the only criterion is the law of the jungle! You low-level demons are only worthy of being turned into a feast all over the land to entertain the higher demons than you-that is, me, hahahaha...... Next one, it's you!"
The flock of birds gradually spread towards the head of the antler-horned demon, and she immediately turned and fled.
It's just that the flock of birds is faster, and the shadows immediately envelop her. As soon as she took a step, the foot that landed behind her was pecked at by the birds flying out of the shadows, and in an instant she turned into a piece of white bone and fell forward to the ground.
The Antlers Demon turned back in horror and opened its eyes wide.
The flock of birds was still pecking forward along her body, seeing that half of her legs were gone.
"Despicable...... Despicable villain, if you dare to kill the people of the Blood Brake Legion, you will be punished......"
Suddenly, just as the flock of birds was about to reach her waist, they fell down in pieces, falling to the ground and disappearing into yellow sand.
The Antlers Demon was stunned. When he looked up, he saw the beaked demon standing there with a pale face, and his laughter had stopped. The corners of his mouth twitched stiffly, and a bone-colored sword had pierced from his back to his chest, the tip of the sword dripping with blood.
"How...... Why ......?"
He turned his head with difficulty, and saw that all of his men behind him had fallen to the ground silently, and each of them had a sharp bone spur pierced in their heart or throat, and they had all been killed by someone.
"You, it's ......"
The man behind him stepped on his back, drew his sword, and the bird-beaked demon made a large hole in his chest, and threw himself forward to the ground, out of breath.
As the saying goes, "the praying mantis catches the cicada, and the yellow finch is behind". The man who suddenly appeared behind him held a broadsword made of bone and wore an oval-shaped bone mask on his face.
He was tall, naked, muscular, his neck and waist adorned with animal bones, and his short silver-gray hair was tied high above his head, fluttering in the wind in the gloomy sky.
In the demon world, people like to take off a representative animal bone from the demonic beast or demon they hunt and wear it on their body as a decoration. Like a medal, it commemorates the achievements of the past.
And the person in front of him, the two large strings of beast bone necklaces on his chest, fell heavily, and each of the beast bones in it was taken from a very powerful and rare demonic beast, obviously a strong man who walked through the depths of the wasteland.
The antlers demon recognized this man, but her expression was not optimistic, and she said tremblingly:
"Bloodbrake Legion...... The captain of the third squad...... Bones?"
Because, she once heard of this mysterious, loner "Captain of the Third Squad". is a cold-blooded and ruthless killer who once roamed all over the Demon Continent and never did anything for any force. After he joined the Blood Brake Alliance, he only obeyed the orders of the regiment leader, and his style of doing his own thing did not change at all.
Due to his strange personality, he is the only one in the third team so far. Because he often kills his teammates who are dragging his feet next to him, and never cooperates with anyone.
Although they are companions, this man is more terrible than his enemies.
Thinking of his deeds, a chill felt in the heart of the Antlers Demon, "How did you meet him......"
She didn't know where the bones came from. So while supporting the ground with his elbows, he slowly moved his body backwards, and at the same time, with kindness on his face, tentatively communicated with him:
"Captain Three, are you going to the Captain too? I'm in the first squad, under the Violent Bears...... You know him?......"
After all, there were only white bones left in her legs, and the healing time was too long, so she could only move forward with such difficulty.
The Bone Demon stepped forward and emanated a dark aura from him, absorbing all the corpses that had died along the way, whether enemies or teammates, into his body, and the corpses immediately turned into bones.
This frightened the Antlers even more.
Unmoved by her words, as if he hadn't heard, he walked towards her at an undiminished pace, no expression visible under his mask.
Suddenly, he stopped in front of her, and the wind blew the bones of the beast around his waist, which rattled like wind chimes.
The Antlers Demon's heart also hung in the air at this moment, as if time had stood still, and her fate was all in the hands of this person.
I saw that the skeleton slowly raised his bone sword and slashed down at the antlers demon's shoulder mercilessly, and a stream of blood spurted out.
The antler-headed demon had a dim gaze and leaned back, looking at the distant horizon, but could never get there again.
"Weak demons have no power to survive. The head of the regiment doesn't need a waste like you. ”
After saying that, he shook the blood drops on his sword, absorbed the spirit of the antler demon, and walked forward.
In the desert, under a huge animal bone, there were several dilapidated stone tables and chairs scattered.
This is the first landmark site in the vast desert after leaving the neutral zone. It was a post station, but it was an open-air place, with the ribs of a few weathered beasts forming a vault, and the chaotic and gloomy sky was unobstructed, and the howling wind passed through the hall, and the sand and dust on the ground rolled in.
Yi Feng and Ling Xi sat at a table in the middle. Outside the Beast Bone Station, the soldiers of the Bloodbrake Legion were stationed, and they set up simple tents and stood neatly around the station, holding weapons in their hands.
While sitting idle, Yi Feng briefly introduced the distribution of forces in the Demon Realm to Ling Xi:
On the Demon Continent, at the beginning, there was a Demon King who ruled the continent. Five thousand years ago, after the death of the Demon King, the Demon Realm was divided into twelve regions by twelve powerful and murderous lords.
Beyond these twelve areas, there is an endless desert, where there are many "lone wolves", and there are also teams like the Bloodbrake Legion, which run rampant on the desert and fend for themselves, they are a free force that does not belong to the Twelve Lords.
And the neutral zone, located on the ruins of the Red Gold Empire. In order to protect the ruins of the Empire, it has been recognized as a neutral zone since the time of the Demon King, where strife and war are forbidden.
If anyone dares to break the rules of the neutral zone, when the time comes, the ruler of the neutral zone, the Shadow Fiend, will intervene to sanction it.
Shadow Fiend, whose real name is Nightshade, is the heir of the Night Family. The Night Family is the first race that was mutated from the Terrans infected with the power of darkness, and it is much higher than the demons that evolved from the Demonic Beasts. They have been in the neutral zone for generations.
Although it is "neutral", the strength of the Shadow Fiend himself is not inferior to that of any lord, or even stronger than them. This is also the reason why the neutral zone can always remain "neutral".
As the two were talking, on the low wall outside the Beast Bone Station, sat a skinny boy with short light blue hair gently covering his cheeks, swinging his legs leisurely and humming a low tune in his mouth.
