Chapter 387: Conflict
For those in the lower realms, there are three issues that seem to them to be worthless.
When did the bloody war break out?
Anytime.
Where does the bloody battle begin?
Anywhere.
Who took part in the bloody battle?
All.
Once you understand the meaning of these three answers, you will understand that whether it is a conflict in a dark alley or a casual encounter by a small river, it will eventually turn into a war of tens of millions of peopleβββ and every part of this place is a bloody battle, it is everywhere and all the time. And because of this, when Rhodes raised his arms, we didn't need to warn him in exaggerated language that doing so would provoke a warβββ because it had already begun.
Rhodes stretched out his hand forward, and staggered sword light emerged from the short sword, and then exploded, forming a narrow X-shape and shooting towards the demon fleet in front of him. And behind this sword light, the tide of the River Styx also rolled up as if attracted by it, and in a short time, a huge wave dozens of meters high was formed, like a giant beast, it opened its big mouth like a giant beast and swallowed the demon fleet in front of it. The swaying waves overturned the ships, and the demons on them were nowhere to be found, but no one cared what happened to them. Since he has been poured with Styx water, it is not much different from the list of the Book of Death.
"Boom !!"
Bright and dazzling light erupted, and the raging waves of the River Styx rolled, and the river that was originally flowing forward changed direction even at this moment due to the impact of the powerful force, and even the boat that Rhodes was in shook for a while. Soon, the light faded. But the fleet of demons seemed to have discovered their enemies because of this, and the flying demons rose into the sky, forming a dense layer of existence like a thick dark cloud pressing forward, and at the same time. Hundreds of scorching fireballs also flew towards everyone in a dense manner. But the fireballs had no effect at all, for soon the canary raised its hands, and a faint, plastic-like bright red barrier enveloped the entire boat. And those fierce fireballs disappeared like raindrops falling into a pool of water the moment they touched the bright red barrier. There is no point other than a ripple. On the contrary, the fireballs that did not hit fell into the River Styx, bringing up a series of explosions and mist, and the shaking current made the boat shake as if it was floating on a stormy wave, but perhaps because of the skill of the controller, the boat still floated tenaciously on the water, and there was no subversion at all.
"Damn it, damn it!!" At the same time, the helmsman, who had been indifferent before, was now showing a depraved appearance. It clung to the pole, its scarlet eyes shining with rage. It opened its mouth, revealing a hideous and terrifying face for the first time, and ordinary people would probably have the urge to faint just by looking at this face. "You're really going to be in trouble! And how dare you involve me! I must warn you that if you dare to damage me and my ship in the slightest, I will leave you behind! Even if you can annihilate tens of millions of demons, you will be lost in the endless waterways of the River Styx! β
"If it weren't for someone who deliberately brought us closer to a 'transport channel' in order to show the majesty of his control. Why should we face these nasty demons? β
Instead of being battle-ready like the others, Stefal sat in the middle of the ship with his hands on his cheeks grinning. A pair of bright eyes looked at the helmsman in front of him with a playful brilliance.
"Now you know that we're completely different from the bargas in the lower realms, Mr. Helmsman? It's a pity that your wishful thinking was wrong. But now there is still a chance, knowing that mistakes can be corrected, and it is very good. β
"I don't know what you're talking about, Miss Merchant."
The helmsman turned his head. I don't know if he really doesn't know Lu Dao or if he's pretending to be stupid.
"I can assure you that it's just a coincidence. Bato is above, those damned demons are not devils, and they dare not obey the order. Who knows if those demons will look at us and suddenly go crazy and want to show their 'majesty'? Don't be afraid to tell the truth, even if you sell all the ladies on this ship, including you. I can't afford to lose my ship. Even if I don't take you seriously, I'm going to take care of my ship, right? β
But having said that, he still waved his long pole and cautiously distanced himself from the demon's fleetβββ since there was still a fight, then he wouldn't give up on customers so easily. The Devils of Jugros are neither demons nor demons, they do not do what they want and are not forced to follow certain established rules, but like humans, they swim nimbly between order and chaos, and there is nothing they will not do as long as it is profitable.
"Oh, oh, that's nostalgic."
Little Bubblegum stood at the bow of the boat, looking at the demons that were rapidly approaching in the distance, the dense, like a thick dark cloud did not surprise and frighten the girl, but made the little bubblegum show a very excited expression, and then, the girl raised her right hand like this, and with her movements, a huge and thick white pillar of light suddenly erupted, roaring forward.
βββββοΌοΌβ
The recoil force brought by the powerful and violent force made the boat, which was constantly swaying up and down on the water, tremble and slide backwards, while the helmsman hurriedly struck the long pole to block its further subversion, and at the same time looked angrily at the girl not far away. It was clear that little bubblegum had not paid any attention to the threatening words of the helmsman.
The dazzling brilliance flashed and disappeared into the dense clouds formed by the dense demons in the sky, but the next moment, the power like thunder erupted from it, and I saw that among the black and oppressive demon groups, dazzling and bright light scattered out one after another, and those demons who were shrouded in the light didn't even have time to make a move and burned like moths to a fire, and then turned into ashes.
The number of the other party is in the thousands, but these thousands of demons are not worth mentioning at all in the eyes of Rhodes and othersβββ no matter how many ants there are, they are still ants, even if they have a numerical advantage. Nor can it bridge the gap between strengths. Not to mention that they are facing one of the five dragons of creation at the moment, and it is also the real dragon of creation.
It only took two hits to destroy nearly a fifth of the demons, but even so, those guys had no intention of leaving. They probably didn't care what Rhodes and the others did just now, they just knew that the guy in front of them not only blocked their way, but also attacked them, and that was enough.
But at this very moment. Qi Ludi also made a move.
The demon god, who had always been timid and cautious, stood up, frowned, and looked at the roaring demons in front of him with discontentβββ they waved their wings and landed from the sky, their outstretched claws and sharp teeth for the time being, and the number alone was enough to kill himself and others in the River Styx. But Kirudi didn't care about that, she just held out a finger and crossed a horizontal line parallel to the void.
The demons' offensive came to an abrupt halt. Immediately afterward, they began to dance and "fall" towards the sky.
That's right, it's "falling." "Accompanied by Kirudi's movements. It was as if gravity had completely changed direction, and instead of bringing them closer to their targets, the force of the demons' desperate flapping of their wings caused them to fall towards the earth (or the sky) like runaway planes. The demons who dared to approach the boat disappeared into the depths of the sky almost in the blink of an eye, just like the exaggerated scene that Rhodes had seen in the comics, and turned into stars. As for whether they can survive or not, that's probably not something that Kirudi should be considering.
ββ¦β¦β¦β¦οΌβ
Seeing this scene, Rod couldn't help but whistle, secretly glad that what he fought with at the beginning was just a fragment of Qiludi's soul, if it was herself, then this gravity subversion alone would be enough for Rod to drink several pots.
Just a few blink of an eye. The demonic army was wiped out in a large area, and there were about three to fifty thousand demons in Rhodes. Little Bubblegum and Kirudi turn into powder under the combined attack. If this is the main plane, then this is far from the end of a war. But for the bloody battle, this is just the beginning, the number of 120,000 is just cannon fodder for both sides to sacrifice for the first time, and the casualties on both sides in each bloody battle are at least more than one million, and the war here and the main plane are completely incomparable. For this land, the only thing their sacrifice brings is nothing more than nourishment for the land.
"There's no point in doing this!!"
The ferryman roared loudly, as if to prove its word, and a series of flashes began to emerge from the edge of the demon fleet in the distance. It was the demons using their innate teleportation and summoning spells to summon other bored demons to come and join in the bloody battle that was once again taking place on the River Styx. In the blink of an eye, the void that had just been eliminated was filled again, and the number of demons increased.
"It's impossible for us to fight the demons here, and no matter how strong you are, you can't destroy them endlessly. I must remind you, ladies and gentlemen, that the Styx teleportation is time-limited, and if we can't reach our destination before the deadline, then I'll have to take a detour to complete the deal between us! Although the vortex of teleportation is ahead, if we can't destroy these demons in a short time, then I will have to take you to the gray ruins, declare in advance! It's not any trick of mine! β
Even after hearing the ferryman's words, Rod's expression still did not change in the slightest, he just held the short sword in his hand, squinted his eyes and looked at the demons not far away, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned. And the next moment, Rhodes gave the order.
"Well, in that case, we really don't have much time to waste, so please move forward."
"Are you crazy?"
Hearing Rod's words, the ferryman looked at Rhodes in front of him with wide eyes in surprise.
"There are millions of demons there, do you want me to take my precious ship to death?!"
"It's true that it's a bit difficult if it's just us, but rest assured, we're not fighting alone."
As he spoke, Rhodes turned his head and looked at Selestina, who had just closed her eyes and was silent.
"How's it going? Celestina? β
In the face of Rod's inquiry, Celestina opened her eyes, and those bright red eyes shone with bright brilliance.
"Rest assured, master. They've arrived. β
"Boom ββββββ!!!"
As if in response to Celestina's words, not far behind everyone, the originally calm River Styx suddenly began to swell, followed by a roar, and then a tall, majestic and mighty ship appeared in front of everyone. (To be continued......)
