Chapter 278: The Demon King's Dilemma

Spring is coming, the cold winter has not gone, the cold wind is howling, blowing the black ashes on the ground, and the smell of blood fills this land that was once a forest, but now it is just a wasteland, the two armies are facing each other, on the right is a combined army composed of various races, and on the other side, it is the demon army led by Agnes.

Orc warriors roared and charged, elves rode on beasts and galloped across the charred earth, orcs roared with the sound of armies galloping, trying to crush the corners of the sky.

Woohoo!

Countless magic arrows shot out, turning into a rain of arrows and flying towards the enemy army, and then neutralized by the counterattack of the demons in mid-air.

On the other side, Agnes' long dazzling silver hair fluttered in the angry wind, she stood on top of the mountain of corpses, stretched out her right hand, and formed large and small formations in front of her, and then quickly flew out, landing accurately in the midst of the army.

As if the coercion that could crush the sky was coming like a tidal wave, the speed of the rapidly advancing Combine Army slowed down rapidly, and the people in front continued to move forward under the terrifying coercion, bending their bodies, and finally kneeling, prostrate on the ground, trembling with pain.

Tens of thousands of half-orc cavalry dressed in bone armor let out an earth-shattering roar, and they formed a queue hundreds of meters long, raised the sharp white blades in their hands, and launched a charge forward.

The blade of the gun pierced the dust and tore through the air in front of it, and the explosion stirred up the blood of people and made people forget their fear.

At the end, countless spells rose to the sky, and the huge formation covered the entire sky, and the powerful spells were fired one after another, blasting towards the demons without stopping, and in the next second, they would all be blocked by a small figure.

"What are you doing!!"

"Don't let the Demon King rest!"

The leaders of the various armies almost roared when they gave orders, none of them cared about casualties, they just wanted to consume this terrible woman alive, and the coercion alone could make the low-level warriors unapproachable, and the terrifying spells and flawless melee combat strength made her almost invincible.

"It would be nice if there were brave people!" The leader of the elves is not reconciled.

He was the leader of the Elven Clan, who temporarily commanded the Elven Clan after the Elven King's death, and was named Clujel.

It's a pity that after the Holy See in the imperial capital was affected by that disaster, the Holy See has not organized a brave election for more than a year, and the opportunity to restrain the demon king in the outside world is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The army of the demons is not a big problem, after a long period of attrition, they are exhausted, and they are completely supported by Agnes alone, if there is no Agnes, the battle line on this side can be easily pressed over.

"Klujel, if we can make it to Agnes rest, then we still have a chance."

A minotaur approached with the minotaur's head, then threw the head on the ground.

It's a strange scene, but it's not strange.

The Minotaur is a half-orc, which is essentially different from the Minotaur, the Minotaur is a type of Warcraft, and in the final analysis, it is counted as a beast, but the Minotaur has the wisdom that is not lost to humans, and the half-orcs are very disgusted with Warcraft that are similar to their own category.

"Chief, how's the situation at the front?" Klujel asked.

"It's bad." The chief shook his head and set his shield aside.

The huge body with knotted muscles took up a large distance as it sat down at the wooden table.

This is the outer tribe of the elves, where the leaders of the various tribes discuss strategies.

The chief shook his huge horn, and a drop of blood from his hair splattered on Klujel's face, and Klujel's brow furrowed, and he raised his hand to wipe it away quietly.

"That damn group of demons are all protected by the coercion of the demon king, but after such a long battle, it can be clearly seen that the coercion of the demon king has weakened, and if you can't sleep, you will consume your spirit, you can't concentrate, the spell is dangerous, and the coercion of the release will also be weakened, as long as we persist, we can win!"

Klujel is right, even the Demon King needs to rest, for so long, although the Demon King has been in the forefront, he must also rest, and when Agnes rests, her legions will delay the time.

By now, the warriors of the demon clan have been exhausted, and the next time the demon king has to rest, it is the time to decide the victory.

"Are we going to step up the offensive?" The chief asked.

A handsome man next to him shook his head and said seriously: "I don't think so, do you remember the Demon King's counterattack?" ”

The man who spoke was very handsome, not much different from the elves, dressed in delicate black clothes, with smooth black hair hanging down naturally, sitting in his own seat with a unique and upright posture of the nobility, smiling. Even if his current opponent is the Demon King, he exudes a calm and calm from the inside out.

Listening to his words, everyone fell silent, and after a while, Klujel agreed: "Just do what the Black Dragon Prince says." ”

The military council was dissolved, and the chieftain returned to the front, while Klujel and the Black Dragon Prince remained here, and the Black Dragon Prince smiled at Klujel with a friendly smile and said, "It's a shame to let you work with those rude orcs." ”

Klujel frowned, waved his hand and denied: "No, Your Highness Huis, I have never had such an idea, it is my honor to be able to fight with these valiant warriors. ”

Xiuis didn't refute the other party, just nodded in approval: "You are really admirable, but I can't stand those rude half-orcs, who have power but can't use it gracefully, what is the difference between this and a beast, it's just a more intelligent beast." ”

Clujer's remarks were unabashedly insulting, and Klujel looked shocked, he was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly, and replied: "Everyone has their own ideas, and it is not surprising that you are the prince of the dragon clan, and although I do not agree with you, I also respect your opinion." ”

After saying this, Klujel left without looking back.

Xiuith stood in place, his smile slowly retracting.

"Cut, is it a hypocrite who cares about those rules, it's really sad, I wonder if the elves are like this. But...... If I can successfully kill the Demon King this time, then I should be able to compete with my brothers for the status of heir. ”

Killing the Demon King and bringing peace to the outside world is unmatched.

The holy sword of the brave is the same existence as the demon king, and after the demon king disappears, the power of the holy sword will be greatly weakened, so even if there are examples of the brave successfully killing the demon king for thousands of years, it cannot cause a devastating blow to the demon race.

But if it wasn't killed as a brave man, then from now on, everyone would understand one fact - the demons can be wiped out.

……

On the other side, Agnes's spirit reached its limit again, and she retreated from the front line.

Magic is not a problem at all, mental torment is the crisis.

The original sin of arrogance is one of the seven original sins, and it must be used more carefully and rationally than the other original sins, because it does not make the demon king stronger, but gives the demon king the ability to overdraft the future.

You can make things that don't have autonomous consciousness sacrifice for the Demon King, but the Demon King will also have to pay the corresponding price in the future.

It's like when she fought against the Elven King, she once forcibly drew magic from plants, and at some point in the future, she would pay the price for what she did, as long as the cost accumulated to a certain extent, she had to pay, it could be a slight loss of magic power, or it could be a loss of magic power for a while.

Agnes doesn't like her original sin, but it has to be said that arrogance is the best original sin to be used alone, controllable and powerful, more rational than rage, more flexible than gluttony, more independent than lust, more positive than laziness, and it doesn't need to accumulate like greed.

But the shortcomings are also obvious, it is an original sin that cannot make the Demon King stronger, it can only make the Demon King overdraft his future power.

It's like putting a shackle on her own upbringing, and Agnes hates it, and she'd rather use the vulgar original sin of gluttony.

"Your Majesty! Are you okay? Sothos asked.

Even if Agnes can't rest, her temperament is still so strong.

"Your Majesty, the Four Emperors, they rushed over, I'm afraid it's too late, my subordinates think, it's better for us to cover Your Majesty, you should rush out."

The current situation is already a desperate situation, and if you want to be rescued, you can only hope that the four emperors in the demon world can come over quickly, but if you leave the demon world, just the seven gods and the Holy See of the emperor of the empire are enough for them to drink a pot, and wanting to come here to rescue is no different from ascending to the sky.

Agnes could not have imagined this situation, and she raised her hand to signal Sothos not to say any more.

"Just because you people still want to cover me to get out of here, it's a fool's dream, don't you know how far the Elven Forest is from the Demon Realm? Don't you know how many people they came? What does it mean that elves, dragons, and orcs have not seen the Holy See here? ”

Sothos was silent, the Holy See was extremely active in fighting against the demons, this situation would never be absent, and now I can't see it, there are only two possibilities, one is to wait on the periphery, ready to annihilate the scattered demons, and the other is to block the demons of the demon world to come to the rescue.

It seems that we have reached a desperate situation.

At the thought of this, Sotos's expression became extremely ugly, his fists clenched, his teeth clenched, and his expression solemn.

Obviously, I have decided to help His Majesty clear all the obstacles, but now I can't even cover her leaving, it's really useless, I am not qualified to stand by His Majesty the Demon King at all, Sotos thought bitterly.

Looking at Sothos with this appearance, Agnes patted the other party's shoulder rarely: "Don't be too pessimistic, look at the lich guy, if he tries harder, there should still be a chance." You go up and block it, and I'll rest for a while. ”

"Yes!"

Agnes walked to the rear of the legion, all the demons obediently gave way along the way, and finally she found a secluded place to sit down, the scarlet queen in her hand was put aside by her at will, Agnes reached out and wiped the sweat from her forehead, and threw the silver hair that was messing around her ears behind her shoulders.

With a long sigh of relief, she closed her eyes and closed them to recuperate.

This time it was too much of a failure, and he planned to hit the elves hard, but he ended up in such an embarrassing situation, which was too misstepping.

"Such a desperate situation...... How can it be reversed? Agnes closed her eyes and muttered, "If it's Felik...... What will he do? ”

In this case, that stupid younger brother came to her mind, if it was that guy, he would definitely surrender without hesitation, and then hide his identity as the demon king, and secretly plot to usurp power from the inside, the demon king whose primary purpose is world peace, is simply naΓ―ve.

If it were Felik, there might be a hint of possibility, after all, he was committed to concealing his personal information during his reign.

It's a pity that Agnes can't do this, she has already revealed her identity as a demon king, and she can't surrender.

That's all it could drag on, Agnes thought to herself.

Suddenly, Agnes opened her eyes again and looked at the grass not far away.

"Who?"

Who dares to sneak up there? No one in the Legion would dare to do that, and it was unlikely that someone would come outside.

I saw a man come out of the bushes, wearing a cloak and exuding a strange magical aura on his body.

Agnes felt a hint of threat, something she had never felt before, even if she was assassinated, she had never felt a sense of crisis, and now she felt that the person in front of her had the power to compete with her.

Agnes' long, nimble fingers slowly grasped the Scarlet Queen's handle, strength building up in her seemingly weak but terrifying body.

"Your Majesty the Demon King, please don't be so nervous, I am not a threat to you."

The scythe burst out, blowing a harsh wind, cutting the cloak that covered the opponent's face, revealing his true face.

Gray-haired, looking extremely old, although his appearance is a little vicissitudes, he can still see that he is a very young man, he bows gracefully, salutes, and shows a gentlemanly smile: "First meeting, Your Majesty Agnes, my name is Lance." ”

Who is he?

Why did you come here?

Many doubts welled up in Agnes' mind.

"It's human, how did you get in, our army's defense shouldn't have been broken through yet?" Agnes asked.

"It's not easy to hide from your army, so I've just used some small means."

At the same time, Lance took out a box from his bosom, and the box contained a square object, completely black, with a metallic luster, and many scratches carved on it, but there was a faint rhythm in it when you looked closely.

Agnes only glanced at it, and knew that the sense of crisis just now came from this thing.

"What is this? Artifact? Agnes frowned slightly, and asked vigilantly.

Lance smiled slightly, feigned surprise and said, "I didn't expect you to know this thing, this is ...... The Truth Thing! ”

"The Thing of Truth? I've never heard of it. ”

"There's really little history about it, but it's a myth that caused a storm in the demon world at the beginning, and I thought it would be very famous." Lance changed his words and continued: "But none of this matters, you just need to know that this thing can help you get out of your current desperate situation!" ”
