So that the demon mage can create several loyal demons of his own, and raise them with their own mana in years. They have a half-physical, half-aetheric body, and have a unique passive magic, making them handy pets. In addition, in fact, the demon is not very powerful, and it is rarely able to assist the master in battle. The conclusion is that the Demon Mage is not a combat type.

The above is common sense, and here are the facts.

Dong Shangjue is too strong and is fighting side by side with the ferocious spirit sparrow!

Since it has taken decades to raise the sparrows, now the mana of the East Shangjue does not have to be supplied to the sparrows, and all of them can be used freely.

Assassins hung upside down from the ceiling, successfully avoiding the sparrow and rushing to the top of Dong Shangjue, but before they could make a move, they were blown down by fireballs, fell on the sparrow's back, and were sucked to death; Poisonous arrows flew, and occasionally a few of them successfully bypassed the spirit sparrow and shot at Dong Shangjue, but the shot was a phantom created by Dong Shangjue's light magic deflection line of sight; Assassins who try to forcibly teleport behind the sparrow will also be intercepted by the sparrow's net-like feathers halfway through, firmly adsorbed to death; Fireballs, Molotov cocktails, corpse-destroying poisons, shock magic and other attack methods are effective, but even if it hurts the sparrow, it will heal quickly, after all, the body of the demon is an etheric substance that has no fixed form.

Since the beginning of the engagement, the Assassins had sacrificed 100 men in two or three minutes, too quickly, and more than half of them had been sucked to death by the sparrows. Anyone who touches the body of that huge sparrow will be drained of its vitality and mind in the blink of an eye, and it can be said that as soon as it touches, it will instantly lose consciousness and die in a coma. Even if they kept their distance from the sparrows, there were still people who gradually lost their strength from the magic effects of the new passive wide area, and fell to their knees one after another.

"Be careful! The sparrow can suck the vitality and mood power of more than ten people at the same time, and the range is extremely wide. If you touch the wings, it's even worse, you'll be sucked to death in an instant! ”

It didn't make much sense for an Assassin to warn his companions so loudly, even if he knew. Despite the spaciousness of the room, the sparrow continued to grow in size, and its wings filled every corner of the room, making it difficult to avoid even with the agility of these professional assassins. The Assassins who were still outside the gate were fed even if they didn't encounter the sparrows, but they died a little more slowly.

"Monster! Dong Shangjue raised a monster! "It blocked all attacks in front of the target, and the throwing knives and arrows couldn't shoot it!" "The wings surround every corner of the room, and you can't go around it!" "Magic attacks have little effect, it's too big!"

All the Assassins were in disarray. In the past, they were orderly because they had made careful plans in advance, but in fact, they were two routes, north and south, and the largest team was only about 20 people, and the command system was very scattered and chaotic, and it was difficult to deal effectively with such an emergency.

After the chaos of the Assassin group, they gradually abandoned their original plan to capture the thief and capture the king first, and decided to pull out the tiger's sharp teeth first.

"Seal it!"

Before entering the door of Dong Shangjue's room, there were about 400 assassins in the castle, and now less than half of them remained, constantly falling like wheat, extremely miserable, and they didn't know whether to sympathize with Dong Shangjue or the assassins. When Nikoyid and Dai Xingquanli decided to send 800 assassins to assassinate them, many people laughed at them in private, believing that it was enough to make a fuss and assassinate four or five elite masters. Fortunately, there are many people now, otherwise I would really be at a loss.

To set up a Seal Enchantment, you need to have at least four manas inserted around the target. So it became the Assassins rushing into the room one after another, risking their lives to set up the sealing barrier. One fell, and the other picked up the power-up and moved on. It's basically taking your life to fill the road.

"I am the orthodox Eastern Shangjue of the Starfall Continent! I am the president of the Royal Legislators' Association! Traitors, you will all die here, and no one will want to leave alive! ”

Dong Shangjue shouted so vigorously that the assassins were confused about who was the prey for a while. He hid behind the ferocious sparrow, and constantly killed the fish that slipped through the net with fireballs. The blood of his enemies and the light of the sea of fire stained his whole body red, like a lion in his twilight years, and it was chilling.

Behind Dong Shangjue's mighty roar was actually an almost desperate panic.

This spacious room is the reception room of the East Shangjue. Tonight he chose to trust Andrew's vague sense of foreboding, just in case he stayed here - there was only one doorway, no windows on all sides, and the walls were all made of materials to insulate mana, so there was no possibility of being teleported and attacked. The terrain is stunning.

Others could only enter through the doorway, but he could teleport away—from the floor directly below the sparrow.

In this mana-insulated cage, the only floor at the foot of the sparrow is made of ordinary wood. After he pressed the mechanism on the wall, a one-meter-square mana barrier appeared in the floor, and it was covered under the stall to see no flaws with the naked eye, and no one could notice that he could teleport downstairs from here.

Dong Shangjue never used the teleportation scroll to escape to the third floor, as it was still surrounded by Assassins. His sparrow can suck human life and mood power, and can also perceive the location of living creatures around it. There were originally many people on the third floor at his feet, but suddenly they died, and then more people poured in, and the spirit sparrow found out about the situation at that time and notified its owner. As a result, Dong Shangjue immediately ordered the sparrow to reach the tail feather downstairs and suck the assassins to death. Before he could escape, he had to clear the room at his feet.

Originally, the plan was to escape the downstairs room before the Assassins burst through the door, but the number of Assassins was in the hundreds, and even if they fled downstairs, it would be useless...... No, the terrain situation will be worse. In desperation, he fought his back in the reception room, reducing the number of Assassins and finding an opportunity to escape. On the surface, he pretends to kill the enemy bravely and vows not to give up until he kills the enemy, but in fact, he has been looking for the right opportunity to use the teleportation scroll to escape downstairs.

Good plan.

No one noticed.

…… Except for one person.

Nikeyide, who is a loyal lord, will not risk his life, but Dai Xingquanli is different. The latter was born a commoner and has suffered everything; As the CEO of the Prophet, he has suffered from anything; In order to become a knight, he has taken any risks. The assassination of Shang Jue is such a big thing, how can he rest assured that he will leave it all to his subordinates?

Dai Xingquanli was masked and mixed into one of the countless assassins, standing outside the door of the room on the third floor where the sparrow tail feather was raging, and observed for a long, long time.

"Hey, if you're Dong Shangjue, will you let the demon's long tail feather stick all the way downstairs instead of protecting yourself? The wings are already very deadly, wouldn't it be better if they were to swing around with the tail feathers? ”

"Yes, sir." The assassin next to him saluted slightly and replied respectfully, "The little one thinks that maybe Dong Shangjue has judged that the upper and lower divisions can reduce our number of people faster." ”

Dai Xingquanli clapped her hands and said with a smile: "That's right." He was desperate to cut the numbers, why? Just want to win? He shook his head, "If it were me, I would have asked for reinforcements, or fled, because there are too many enemies." We have killed not a single reinforcement left, and the nearest one will not change the guard until half an hour later. So, he was going to escape. ”

"Your Excellency is wise."

Daiyuki Izumi noticed that the tail feather always reached downstairs from the same position, and despite the sucking assassins around, the tail never moved. He confirmed that it wasn't the sparrow that could penetrate the special floor that was insulated by mana, but that there was a gap there.

"Gather all the archers." Dai Xingquanli sneered, "I foresee the future where Dong Shangjue teleported in front of us half a minute later, and was inserted into a hedgehog by a poisoned arrow. ”

"Yes!"

At the sound of an order, the nearest dozen archers were gathered near the wreaking of Tail Feather, and they all drew their bows and aimed at Tail Feather's position.

An Assassin pulled over a comfortable leather chair.

Dai Xingquan sat down on stilts, touched her chin and sneered, waiting. He is also a prophet, although he only has a fourth-order, but because he has followed the prophet for many years, he has also stolen a lot of skills. The accuracy of foreknowledge alone is far superior to Andrew's. Foreknowledge has a trick - the more information you know, the clearer it will be about the unknown, so he stayed in the dangerous place where Tail Feather was raging, patiently observing.

Hard work pays off.

The sparrow in the reception room on the fourth floor suddenly let out a scream, and was trapped in the sealing barrier.

The Assassins killed dozens of people in order to set up four magic items, and finally succeeded in establishing the barrier with corpses. The mana flow of both Dong Shangjue and the Spirit Sparrow began to be disordered, and they were constantly absorbed by the enchantment spells that appeared on the floor, and then returned against the current, causing great backlash damage to both of them.

It really doesn't work!

Dong Shangjue couldn't wait any longer, and immediately pulled out the teleportation scroll. Enable. Take effect. He turned into a painful, flickering light to break free from the shackles of the sealing barrier and forcibly escaped to the third floor at his feet.

Dong Shangjue knelt on one knee, his whole body was covered with the damage caused by the sealing enchantment, and before he could catch his breath, he was immediately shot by random arrows and turned into a hedgehog. Countless arrows have been fed with poison, and they die when they are bruised, even if they are not poisonous, they have no skills.

"Ahem......!" Dong Shangjue was poisonous, spit out a mouthful of blood, and looked at Dai Xingquanli unwillingly. It was just a gut instinct that the masked man standing behind the kneeling archer-wielding assassins was the leader," ...... Why do you want to kill my ......? ”

Dai Xingquanli took off her mask and smiled innocently like a child, "Because you are Shangjue." ”

“…… It's ...... you."

This was the last thing Dong Shangjue said, and then he fell to the ground and died.

Even though the owner died, the sparrow upstairs was still struggling. The assassins did not dare to approach the corpse of Dong Shangjue rashly, fearing that the other party would suddenly stand up.

Dai Xingquanli put on her mask again and silently prayed for Dong Shangjue to rest in peace. Then he turned his head and said, "Hey, corrupt him." ”

The Assassin immediately pulled out the potion of corpse destruction and threw it at Dong Shangjue's corpse in case someone resurrected it tomorrow - although resurrection techniques are rare, who can say for sure? It's safer to do it thoroughly.

"My lord, I dare to ask, why did you deliberately take off your mask at that time?" This kind of thing is incomprehensible to a professional Assassin.

"In order to make Lord Shangjue die blindly." Dai Xingquanli replied very seriously, "Don't get me wrong, I respect him very much." In fact, I respect all the big people, and I respect them from the bottom of my heart. Because of this, I am even more eager to be one of them, at all costs. ”

With that, he slowly walked to the fourth floor.
