Chapter 534: Kites
Diego ran and jumped nimbly between the ruins, turning back and firing a shot at the Hellfire from time to time, he didn't have time to recharge the bullet, but the power of the bullet alone could open a lot of wounds on the monster's body. The green scorching lava flowed down from the part where the demon had been hit by the bullet, and it looked like it was bleeding.
Behind him, the enraged Hellfire ignored the other humans who were surrounding him, and instead chased after Diego like a hyena attracted by carrion! In fact, not only did it not look at the others, it didn't even look at the road under its feet, but just chased in a rumbling straight line, rampage like a tank. The broken ruins were as fragile as a wicker fence in front of him, torn apart and scattered by the crash. You know, these walls and columns were built with the hardest granite ever used!
Diego was in a dangerous situation, because the Hellfire wasn't slow, and although it was slow, the big guy could take three or four steps to take him, and he never had to think about turning! What's even more deadly is that from time to time, the demon condensed a scorching ball of lava in his hand and threw it towards Diego. On several occasions, Diego had narrowly escaped the disaster, his robes had been burned to tatters by the fireballs that passed him, and if it weren't for the black dragon leather armor inside, which was extremely immune to flames, he would have been burned into a roast pig long ago.
He shot and ran and dodged, and after a few minutes Diego was surprised to find that he had circled around the crater that had been smashed by the hellfire and returned to where he had stood. There, Varian and Boval were holding their weapons tightly.
This big guy can't resist head-on at all, okay? Diego ran wildly as he waved his hand at the two men.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way!" He yelled at the two men, then passed them, intending to continue taking the monster around in circles.
However, Varian and Berval did not heed his cries, and as the Hellfire ran past Diego right behind, Bolvar swung his glittering heavy shield, fitted it, and slammed into the monster's right leg.
The demon staggered, and although it didn't do any substantial damage, the slam of the shield infused with the power of the Holy Light still caused it to stiffen for a moment. And at its feet, Bauvar, who had hit it squarely, staggered back a few steps as if drunk, and finally fell on all fours.
At the same time, Varian, who had already put away Sarameni, made a jump and climbed into the lap of Hellfire.
If Duke Bervar had previously cast a protective blessing on his king, Varian would have been burned to the flesh by the flames surrounding the monster, but now, the thin layer of light energy that shrouded his body protected him from the flames.
He clung to the protruding stone at the demon's waist and climbed up, and the monster roared to shake him off.
But before Hellfire could shake off Varian, a bullet whizzed and struck the demon's head, flying a large rock and successfully diverting its attention.
"Hey, idiot, come to Daddy!" Diego shouted defiantly as he opened fire violently. Although Hellfire's intelligence was not enough for it to figure out what the human was saying, the annoying little bug that jumped and jumped provoked even more of its anger. It took another step and chased after Diego.
Varian gritted his teeth and climbed up, but it wasn't easy, the rocks on the Hellfire's surface had been melted away by the flames, the pieces were round and slippery, and the big creature was still running. More often than not, Varian is trying to hold on to himself so as not to be left behind.
It wasn't until Diego kited the Hellfire for the second time and circled the pit again that Varian managed to climb onto the monster's shoulder. During this time, Diego was almost caught by this hellfire several times, and if it weren't for a brave soldier who rushed up and blocked the demon's path with his life, he would have been pinched in his hands.
Not only this valiant soldier, but also the scattered humans finally arrived, chasing the hellfire and slashing wildly, trying to share the pressure for their king, but the most powerful mages could only restrain their hands and feet from a distance, staring dryly and not daring to move Varian still hanging on it! What if you accidentally beat the king to death?!
Finally, Varian, who had climbed onto the demon's shoulder, pulled Salamoni from behind his back and gestured over the shoulder of Hellfire, the base of the monster's neck glowing with dazzling yellow-green spots, and it looked like the place was much more fragile than the rest.
He tried his best to steady himself with his left hand and legs, and then stabbed Salamoni into the spot with all his might. Like poking into hot lava, Sarameni didn't have a handle, and the whole thing was inserted. went in.
The monster suddenly howled in pain. It staggered to the side and nearly fell to the ground. It reached behind its back as hard as it could, trying to slap the annoying pest to death. However the king is from the demonic body. Inside pulled out Sarameni and cut off two of its fingers.
The monster let out another howl, realizing that the enemy on its back was far more threatening than the one in the distance, and it stopped to solve the trouble on its back first.
But it also gave the human soldiers who had been chasing it a chance, brandishing their weapons and attacking fiercely, but their attacks did not have much effect, at most they only made the Hellfire a little upset, on the contrary, their own weapons were molten by the lava a lot, and many of the swords were twisted like hemp rope. Only Diego's bullet had punched a few large holes in the demon's chest, and he finally had time to recharge Death Gaze.
On Hellfire's shoulder, Varian swung his sword again, this time aiming at the monster's neck. A terrible wail erupted from the monster's mouth as the glowing magic sword sliced through the air and slashed at the monster's neck.
Varian's sword slashed so hard that it nearly cut its entire neck in two. The demon staggered a few times, and finally fell to the ground. The huge body slammed into the ground, shaking the ground a few times, and the nearest soldiers who were standing were so weak that they almost fell to the ground.
Following the direction in which the monster fell, Varian slid and jumped to the ground with agility. He took Salamoni in his arms and walked towards Hellfire's shoulder, trying to end the struggle. But when he got closer, he found that he didn't need it at all. The Hellfire was completely dead, and his last sword had exhausted the power of the evil power that sustained its massive body. The lava that made up its body fell to the ground, turning into a pile of ordinary stones, large and small, with a faint residual heat like dark red embers. Just looking at the pile of rocks, you can't imagine that they were a kinetic life just a few minutes ago.
More people gathered around, excitedly watching the remains of the hellfire. I don't know who was the first, as if all of a sudden, the earth-shattering cheers erupted violently from the crowd.
The people continued to shout and cheer to celebrate their victory under the leadership of the valiant king.
But just then, Diego squeezed in from outside the crowd.
"Your Majesty, before it's time to cheer, there are still a bunch of demons waiting for us to exterminate!" He shouted loudly in the king's ear. 2k reading web
