Chapter 436: Flee without a fight
The demons were stunned. What day is it? Just a guy who challenged the lordship was killed, and another one actually popped up?
Illidan, who appeared in the center of the square, directly swung his flaming whip and whipped towards Duke Dracula. All the demons immediately understood that this was yet another challenger who wanted to become the new demon duke.
The demons who were dispersing all stopped their tracks and continued to watch the development of events with interest. Compared to the Scythe Demon who had just died, the Fire Demon was relatively rare in the Abyssal Land, and even most of the demons didn't know much about the Fire Demon's abilities.
Although Duke Dracula ruled the small city, the nature of the demons meant that they could not be very loyal to their so-called lords. On the contrary, with the exception of demon soldiers who are truly subservient to their lords, the lords of demon lords are generally happy to see their lords replaced by foreign demons.
This is because during the period when the old and new rulers alternate, they are able to do things that they might not normally be able to. In addition, in order to seek the stability of the newly acquired territory, the new lord will also temporarily relax some of the jurisdiction and taxes for the lord.
Truth be told, the onlookers weren't optimistic about Illidan's future. The Scythe Demons, who had become soul reapers, had all died at the hands of Duke Dracula, and even though Illidan was now manifesting in the form of a rarely seen Fire Demon, the demons did not consider him to be Duke Dracula's opponent.
But that's just the opinion of those who watch the devil. Unlike these demons, whose strength was very weak compared to the two corpses on the field, Duke Dracula, who was absorbing the blood of the Scythe Demon, let go of the sharp teeth pierced into the Scythe Demon's neck, raised his head and looked at Illidan with a solemn face.
Before, when facing the Scythe Demon. This Duke Dracula has always been calm and breezy. It was as if the powerful Soul Reaper was no threat to him at all. Of course. The ending of the most scythe demon also proves that Duke Dracula does have the qualifications to be indifferent.
However, when facing the fire demon incarnated by Illidan, Duke Dracula couldn't help frowning. The aura of this flame demon on the other side didn't seem to have reached the peak of the legendary level, but it gave him a much more dangerous feeling than the scythe demon he had just killed.
Moreover, there was an aura on this fire demon's body that made his heart palpitate. It's as if you're in ...... The same. I don't know what to do, but Duke Dracula suddenly senses that he has come to the most dangerous moment of his life.
Seeing Illidan's tentative flaming whip come at him, Duke Dracula quickly threw down the body of the Scythe Demon and dodged it. Stopping beyond the reach of the flaming whip, he watched vigilantly as Illidan spoke.
"This powerful Fire Demon Lord, do you also want to come and gain the status of lord?"
Hearing Duke Dracula's question, Illidan raised an eyebrow. In fact, although he had the idea of seizing a dukedom, he did not want to do it immediately. After all, he is not very skilled in controlling the transformed Flame Demon body, and if he wants to find a demon duke who is not too strong, he will seize his position. For example, this Duke Dracula, who can easily kill the scythe demon of the same level, is obviously the most powerful of the demon nobles, and it is by no means easy to match.
But whether it was because of the inexplicable familiarity in his heart or the order of his father, he had to capture this Duke Dracula. in the mind. Yu Fei gave Illidan order, but even if his true nature was exposed, he would take down this batwing demon lord who was suspected of being the Dreadlord.
Of course, there is always an excuse to fight. Taking the liege was obviously a good excuse, and it was what Illidan wanted to do in the first place. So, he followed Duke Dracula's questioning and confessed.
"That's right, this seems to be a Duke named Dracula? Leave your territory and your life to me. Although he had become a fire demon, Illidan's arrogance remained undiminished, and his words seemed as natural as they should be, making the onlookers twitch the corners of their eyes.
This fire demon's breath is too big, isn't it? Don't you see the scythe demon that has turned into a dry corpse? The demons who have lived in this small city for a while have a general understanding of Duke Dracula's strength.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to rush over and watch when there was a battle between two Legendary-level demons. If the strength of the two legendary demons in the battle was similarly different, the aftermath of the battle would be enough to injure some demons below the gold level and even die.
Illidan's answer was extremely unkind, and all the onlookers looked at the fire demon on the field with pity. But then, Duke Dracula's reaction made them all freeze and couldn't believe their ears.
"In that case, the mighty Lord of the Flame Demon, the title of Demon Duke and this small city are yours. I'm sure Your Excellency won't care about the despicable person who gave up these two things, right? ”
What the?!! The demons on the lookers felt as if they had been struck by lightning - although lightning rarely appeared in the demon world. How is this possible? Shouldn't Duke Dracula's reaction be to take out this provocative fire demon again in anger? How could such a thing be said!
However, Duke Dracula said so, and he didn't care about the shock of the onlookers. After watching Illidan say the words of renunciating the city and his status as duke, he turned into a blood-colored bat with a puff of smoke and flapped his wings to fly away.
Obviously, Duke Dracula's words were not a joke. He was ready to leave directly, to prove that he had indeed willingly surrendered his title and domain to Illidan.
Illidan was also stunned after hearing Duke Dracula's answer, but he would never let Duke Dracula leave so easily. The Father's command was to capture the bat alive, even if it revealed that he was not a demon.
Without the slightest hesitation, Illidan flew forward, and a dark red flame mark in his hand struck at Duke Dracula, who was about to fly away.
This is an innate ability possessed by the fire demon he incarnates, and soul burning. The damage that this ability can bring is not very strong, but it can mark an enemy to inflict a small amount of damage on him, and the most important thing is that it can have a certain forbidden effect.
The effect of soul burning is still good, there is an abnormal fire red on the body, and the blood-colored bat flying in the air quickly lands and turns into Duke Dracula standing on the ground.
At this time, Duke Dracula did not have his previous aristocratic demeanor, but stared at Illidan with an ugly face. "Why, do you still want to keep me?"
Illidan deliberately let out a rampant laugh, and replied with a mouth as hot as lava, "That's right, not only your title and territory, but I also want to burn your body!" ”
As he spoke, Illidan raised his hand and a lava arrow shot at Duke Dracula, not giving him a chance to speak again.
In the face of Illidan's unreasonable attitude, Duke Dracula had a hint of anger in his eyes, but his reaction was to continue to flee, without the slightest intention of fighting Illidan.
This? Looking at Duke Dracula, who did not turn into a bat again, but walked through the demons directly with his own speed, Illidan was a little speechless. He has made such an arrogant gesture, why doesn't this Duke Dracula follow the script? Shouldn't he be furious and fight himself?
I was surprised that Illidan's movements were not slow. He couldn't just watch Duke Dracula flee like this. It stands to reason that a demonic nobleman like Duke Dracula would not be able to make such a move to hand over the title of Inheritance, let alone flee without a fight in the face of an enemy whose aura is weaker than his own.
Now it's not just Yu Fei, Illidan himself is curious about Duke Dracula. This guy who is different from ordinary batwing demons must have a secret on his body!
Leaving behind a crowd of unknown onlookers, Duke Dracula and Illidan fled the town and galloped into the distance. (To be continued......)
