Chapter 699: Fiona under siege
On the way to the southwest region where the Galen siblings are located, Sarah also learned the difference between high-level demons and ordinary demons from Oriana's mouth.
High-level demons are not called high-level demons if they have wings on their backs or have spiritual intelligence, but their strength is far beyond that of ordinary demons, and they are qualified to be called high-level demons only if they touch the threshold of demigods.
In other words, even demons whose strength is close to that of a demigod can be called a high-level demon.
Compared with normal human mages and swordsmen of the same strength, high-level demons are much stronger than humans of the same strength due to their physical fitness that far surpasses that of humans. And the high-ranking undead knights she saw on the night of the Eclipse of Soul in Bilgewater also fell into this category.
When she thought of this, Sarah couldn't help but think of Raven, the man who died for her. Shaking her head to put the guilt behind her, her eyes narrowed slightly, and she continued to think about the high-level demons.
Based on her understanding of all the members of the rescue team, excluding the uncertainties of Hex's weapons, the only ones who can fight the high-level demons head-on should be two Fiona who have fused and separated.
She had also heard that the magic unleashed by Lux during the battle with Noxus in Demacia wiped out all the enemies of the battlefield, and she thought that the reason why the Galen siblings rescued the survivors so quickly was because of the magic of Drax.
In that case, she could send the Galen siblings to reinforce the two Ezreal who had encountered a high-level demon. Even if Lux's mana state is not much left after the rescue just now, with the Hex weapons on Ezreal and the others, it should be enough to continue the rescue operation in the area that Ezreal and the two are responsible for after defeating the high-level demons.
Thinking of this, Sarah suddenly became enlightened, and at this time, the Riffik also landed in a desert wasteland where the Galen siblings were.
A faint smile crossed her lips, and Sarah patted the two Caitlin sitting in front of the operating table.
"Oriana, Caitlyn, come with me to pick up the two Demacia heroes who are the first to complete the mission!"
……
After slaying the last undead soldier standing in the way of the city gates, Irelia immediately shouted at Darius, "Darius, it's time to get out of the city!"
After reminding Darius, who was still entangled with several demons, Irelia motioned for the survivors they rescued to speed out of the city.
Covering the remnants of these Zelath forces and natives out of the city, Irelia looked anxiously at Darius, who could not escape.
Despite her deep hatred for the Noxians, especially the Darius who led the Noxian soldiers in the invasion of Ionia. But with a clear distinction between public and private, she still rushed to Darius without hesitation to help him relieve the pressure of being besieged.
With the two of them working together, the demons that haunted Darius were quickly slain. They looked at each other, and Irelia looked at the new demons that sprung up at the end of the street, and turned around and escaped from the city.
Once out of the city, Irelia dashed to the survivors they had rescued from the city. But when she arrives with the survivors, she discovers that Darius hasn't followed.
Secretly saying something bad in her heart, Irelia immediately turned around and looked at the city not far away, she didn't want to be responsible for the rescue of the next few mission sites alone.
Outside the city gates, under Irelia's stunned gaze, Darius swung his battle axe and kept chopping the walls near the city gates.
The cracks in the walls grew bigger and bigger under the successive slashes of Darius, and finally the walls were blocked by rubble due to the excessive number of cracks.
Seeing this, Irelia realized that Darius's seemingly stupid move was to delay the time for the demons in the city to chase them out.
With a rare look of appreciation, Irelia smiled at Darius, who was walking slowly towards her.
But in just a moment, the smile on her cheeks froze. A cold and biting demon wind roared from behind, making her spine cold.
And Darius, who was walking towards her, also had his eyes dilated instantly, and the figures of Irelia and the survivors in his pupils gradually disappeared, and he was attracted by a demon who exuded a solid black demonic aura.
The demigod's coercion emanated from the demon, and the survivors collapsed to the ground in the first place, and even some of the weak-willed humans let out a scream of horror.
Irelia's face was gloomy, and she turned to look at the demon who had intercepted them. Feeling the evil magic that was comparable to that of a demigod, if she guessed correctly, the strength of this demon was infinitely close to that of a demigod.
With her current strength, if she wanted to fight this kind of demon, she might die here if she was not careful.
"I didn't expect to encounter a high-level demon here!" With an embarrassed snort, Irelia glanced at her partner Darius.
Sensing Irelia's gaze, Darius twisted his neck, moved his muscles and bones, and said with full of fighting spirit: "If you kill this high-level demon, it should be considered a great achievement, right?"
……
"Hugh is talking nonsense, Shurima has a god like Lord Zeroth, how dare those demons come here?"
The commander of the Zelath army, who was in charge of guarding the circle near the circle, arrogantly refused to cooperate with Fiona, and his tone also revealed disdain for Fiona.
Didn't Ionia despise Shurima when he sent two women to be lobbyists? The Commander hadn't experienced what a patrol soldier had experienced, so he didn't know that Fiona and the others weren't vases, but genius female swordsmen.
After patiently speaking to the leader of the Zeroth army, what Sarah wanted them to say, they didn't expect to be treated with the contempt and arrogance of the bearded commander. The two Fiona's originally calm and indifferent expressions gradually turned cold, and they looked at the bearded leader like dead fish.
"Anyway, we've said everything we need to say, if you don't believe it, then we have to leave!"
The arrogance in her bones would never allow Fiona of the Laurent family to bow down to such a person, since he didn't believe it, she didn't want to be a lobbyist in the first place.
The same is true of Fiona, the childhood sweetheart, who coldly glanced at the bearded commander who didn't know what to do, and walked out of the commander's tent with another her.
Leaving the barracks with black faces under the fingers and points of the soldiers of the Zelas army, the suppressed resentment and anger in the hearts of the two Fionas still surfaced on their pretty faces.
After this incident, Fiona and the others had almost given up on the task of going to the military camp of the Azir forces to work as lobbyists. Asking the two of them to put down their bodies and become lobbyists is simply torturing them!
With Sarah's brain, she should have guessed that they would fail, so why did she insist on them doing this task? The more I thought about it, the more I felt that Sarah was deliberately manipulating them, and the already gloomy pretty faces of the two Fionas were even more embarrassed.
Just as the two were about to make contact with the Refik through the headset, they heard the screams of the undead coming from all directions.
The two looked at each other in some confusion, both suspecting that they might be hallucinating. But the screaming from all directions grew louder and louder, reminding them that it was all true.
"Although the demons have not opened the portal near here, I believe that soon the demons who have conquered the various cities will come from all directions, and these soldiers will definitely be defeated by then; These soldiers are also trained and have some combat ability, and I hope you two will convince them to return to Ionia with us! ”
Remembering what Sarah said when she asked them to be lobbyists, Fiona and the others realized that they were now trapped in an army of the undead.
Looking at the terrified soldiers who walked out of the Zelas barracks in the distance, although they had a very bad impression of them, Fiona and the others unconsciously released their respective sword intents, holding the Flowing Cloud Sword and the Ink Feather Sword tightly in their hands, preparing to fight to the death with the army of the undead who were getting closer and closer.
