Fire.

There was fire everywhere, the night sky was lit up by raging fires, and the panicked and frightened screams of others could be heard in the distance, and there was a faint and terrifying sound of wild laughter full of excitement.

Blood.

There was blood everywhere, a strong smell of blood enveloping the town, the sky seemed to be stained red with blood, and the moon was an eerie dark red.

"Will! ……”

"Will! …… Thank God! …… You're not dead yet! …… Hurry up! ……”

A large man with a beard on his face appeared in front of him, wearing a rudimentary piece of chain mail, a blood stain on his chest, and three claw marks on his thick arm, and at this moment he brought a war hammer to Will's side with one hand, and quickly threw a long sword over, shouting, "Get up and fight!" The demons have stormed the town! ”

The young man slowly climbed up.

He shook his head, as if trying to make sense of what was in front of him, but soon some memories began to come back.

The sky was a little strange tonight, for it was so unsettling red, and it was still winter, and there shouldn't be such bright fiery clouds, let alone a hint of dark red on the moon.

The devil has descended.

No one knows where they came from, it's more like they fell from the sky, suddenly appeared next to the town, and then they started attacking like crazy.

Fight.

The town's garrison was in ruins, and the militia was easily scattered by the demons, and he was confronted by a lone berserker, who managed to kill the opponent on his own, but the final blow knocked him unconscious.

Thankfully, he wasn't in a coma for long.

"Captain !!"

A young, slightly immature boy ran over, his expression extremely frightened at the moment. A little incoherent: "Dead! …… All dead! …… Hank...... Rennes...... Shosta ...... All dead...... All dead! ……”

Yes!!!

In the distance, there was a shrill scream of a woman, and Will was familiar with this voice, for she was the mayor's cook, a chubby aunt who was usually a little nagging but good to people, and occasionally gave food to the children from the kitchen.

"I'm fine! ……”

Will staggered to his feet, then reached out and clenched the sword in his hand. He blocked the man in front of him and wanted to hold his hand, and said in a hoarse voice, "What about the others?" Hurry up and ask the priest of the temple for help! ……”

"And Lord the Wizard of Clyde."

He is Will Jackson, the militia captain of East Lake Town, and a retired adventurer.

The bearded man looked around with an ugly face, and said in a deep voice, "Everyone has been scattered!" …… Some cowards have escaped! …… Demons have stormed into the neighborhood, and we must save them! ……”

Residential area.

Will's eyes were suddenly bloodshot, and he suddenly clenched his long sword and rushed out, roaring angrily: "Gather the others!" …… We can't afford to sit still! …… Open the Quartermaster Depot! …… Give all men weapons! ……”

"They have to fight to protect their homeland!"

Will's figure rushed out, and a lowly cowardly demon appeared in front of him. As a former adventurer, he had foreseen demons when he was fighting some evil spellcasters, but he had never seen so many, and there were even more terrifying demons among them. He felt that his lungs were hot, and the first impact had already caused him internal injuries, and he relied on a physique far beyond ordinary people to be able to suppress the injuries and fight.

Poof!

Will slashed the cowardly demon in front of him with a single sword, and then saw a shivering figure hiding behind a straw pile.

Ron, a half-year-old child. Fourteen years old this year, because he is not tall, he is always bullied. I've always wanted to join the militia to make myself stronger.

Syllable!

There was no time for Will to say anything more, he directly lifted the child in front of him with one hand, and then slapped it, the poor little guy was already scared stupid.

Will took a sword that had fallen next to him, put it in his hand, and roared, "Pick up the sword!" Go to the garrison! Don't stay here! ”

"Tell the patrol to come and help!"

The child in front of him trembled and crawled up. There were scattered corpses all around, some demonic but more human, and the ground was littered with severed limbs and arms, as well as several corpses that had been eaten beyond recognition. He suddenly threw up with a wow, and his bile was pouring out.

Will sighed.

After all, he was just an ordinary civilian, and he was on the verge of collapse in the face of everything in front of him, and he didn't have time to care about this guy anymore, so he could only raise his sword and rush forward.

A lot of people died.

At a distance of only one or two hundred meters, he saw the corpses of many of his colleagues, both from the militia and from the garrison.

Even!

He also saw a mangled corpse in full-body armor, it was Lord Dick of the town, a canonized knight and one of the most powerful professions in the town.

His body was torn in half!

Will couldn't imagine what a terrifying force it was to be able to kill an orthodox knight in such a brutal way.

Demon.

The figure of the demon appeared in front of him.

They were rampage in the raging fire, and a delicate girl ran out of a hiding corner in horror because of the fire, and before Will could rush to the rescue, several wandering demons rushed over, tearing this young and beautiful life to pieces in an instant!

"No!"

Will was stunned, and his unprecedented anger made him roar and rush over, instantly swinging his sword to slash the demon in front of him.

A bright glow emerges.

Followed by a burst of explosions, Will gasped and raised his head, his expression couldn't help but perk, and muttered, "Over there?" Temple!!! ”

The town of Donghu is located in the southern part of the mainland.

There are shrines dedicated to the goddess of agriculture, the goddess of rivers, and the Red Knight Lady (goddess of strategy).

Will began to rush towards the vicinity of the temple, but the demons scattered nearby were also attracted by the sound of explosions over there, and began to gather in that direction one by one.

Corpse.

There were corpses everywhere.

Familiar faces had now turned into cold corpses, and Will's heart was filled with sadness and anger, although he had migrated here after his adventure, but it had been five years since he had become accustomed to life here. Consider this peaceful town your home.

- "Arcane missiles!" ”

- "Defend against evil!" ”

- "Fireball!" ”

The brilliance of the spells emerged, and the surrounding areas of the three temples had turned into battlefields, and the surviving old and weak women and children hid inside the temples, while some men with weapons were outside. Several spellcasters are active on the battlefield, and it is entirely by their strength that these people are able to block the demon's attacks again and again.

Quasai, Cowardice, Deep, Abyssal Bloodthirsty, Cunning, Berserk......

Some demons Will had seen or had never seen before launching attacks on the temple. They seemed to be a little afraid of the power shrouded in the temple, and some mid-level demons were slow to attack, instead constantly driving the low-level demons to consume the enemy's strength.

"Will! ……”

A trembling girl hiding in the temple suddenly stood up and said anxiously to Will in the distance: "Be careful! ……”

"...... behind you"

A great sense of crisis struck suddenly.

Will rolled forward almost without thinking, and then a violent explosion was heard, and his figure flew straight into the air.

The fire spreads!

A fiery figure emerged from the ruins ahead, looking like a burning humanoid, and with a flick of his hand, a huge fireball struck.

Fire Burner!

One of the most powerful mid-level demons in the Bottomless Abyss, the basic form of the Balo Flame Demon's advanced level.

The appearance of the Fire Burner undoubtedly became the last straw that overwhelmed the weakest balance in front of him. With a fireball spell exploding in the crowd, the warriors near the temple suffered heavy losses in an instant.

A Fire Demon who challenges level 8 or higher, this is no longer an existence they can fight!

If his fellow adventurers were still around, Will might have been able to take out the Fire Demon in front of him, because he was a warrior who had successfully entered the Third Order not long ago, but now almost no one could stop it. Although there are a few wizards who have settled here in Donghu Town, most of them are second-order strength, and only one can cast spells above the fourth ring.

"Squire!"

"Come to me!"

A rousing battle cry rang out. With the sound of galloping horses' hooves, a troop of cavalry appeared on the opposite street. The leader is a human heavy knight wearing full-body armor. Dressed in medieval Gothic plate armor, he was flanked by heavily armed cavalry, a real army compared to the poorly equipped militia units and garrisons.

"Your Lord!"

"It's Baron Blake!"

"We're saved!"

The sound of galloping horses' hooves suddenly drowned out the demon's roar, and the cavalry unit was like a sharp knife plunging directly into the enemy's vital point.

The spear picked up a cunning demon figure directly.

The first round of cavalry charges caused the demons to suffer heavy losses in an instant, but unfortunately this was not a plain area. In a small town, even a strong lord's guard has only one chance to charge. A berserker seized the opportunity, and the demon, which weighed nearly 1,500 pounds, flipped the horse to the ground in one fell swoop, and then grabbed the fallen knight's squire with both hands, just twisting his hands. This knight squire above the second rank was torn in half.

"Fire ...... Blood...... Killing ......"

The low abyssal whisper echoed, and the figure of the Fire Burner turned, and the fire ignited all around, and the terrible demon turned its attention to the men.

The loud chirping of the eagle appeared suddenly.

An eagle hovered over the town, and at this moment the entire town of Donghu had turned into a sea of fire, and all that remained of the once prosperous town was burning ruins and corpses all over the ground.

"Demons?!"

"Why are there so many demons on the material plane?"

The figure of the eagle swooped down, and the moment it hit the ground, it turned into a tall elven druid, with the emblem of the Druid Order on his chest, and with a beastly roar, a huge brown bear suddenly appeared beside him.

Animal buddies!

As a wild druid of the Nature Sect, although he doesn't like to get along with humans very much, in this situation, he still decides to help humans fight against demons.

The sky was blood-red.

It was so oppressive that it seemed that it was impossible to breathe, and just when people thought that they would finally be able to win, a crack opened in mid-air, and then a huge and hideous spider slowly crawled out.

This moment!

Even the druid's face changed drastically, and he said unusually ugly: "Demon Hunter Spider?!! ”

………………

Meanwhile.

In the laboratory of Modo City, Golia, who was conducting research on the floating ring, suddenly changed her face, and then the mechanical voice of the Taling test subject ET sounded: "Unknown spatial abnormalities have occurred in the warning area!" ”

"The spell traps have all been triggered!"

A teleported glow emerged.

Golia's figure suddenly appeared on the lighthouse, and as she infused her magic into a strange metal spell device, suddenly a high-pitched alarm sounded throughout the city of Mordor.

Moment.

Countless people were awakened in their sleep, the roars of officers were heard from the direction of the barracks and the garrison, and groups of Modo City guards began to assemble, and in just ten minutes, thousands of troops had been assembled.

The sky in the distance is dark red.

About twelve kilometers away from the city of Modo, I don't know when it was shrouded in a strange blood-red cloud.

……………… (To be continued......)
