Chapter 257: The Fall of the West (I)

Nature does not change its laws just because it happens a small event, and the night is never late, it only comes as scheduled.

The night is a paradise for creatures accustomed to darkness, and for those who are not accustomed to being active in the dark, there is a good chance that the night will be their hell.

Human beings, for example, are generally not good at moving in the dark.

The eastern part of the Iquir Plain is still some way from the middle of the Southern Continent in the strict sense of the word. Since there is a fairly large forest between the western and central parts of the Southern Continent, the connection is not close, and the transportation from the central part of the Southern Continent to the western part of the Southern Continent is not very developed.

If something major happens in the western part of the southern continent, then in general, it is impossible for people in the center or even in the east to provide assistance in time.

It was precisely because of this that Loyat chose to start with the humans in the western part of the Southern Continent, and it was an unexpected surprise to find Gust who originally lived in the mountains of the west.

Thanks to Loart's clever choice of the right location to open the portal connecting Hellto and the Southland, everything went much better when Artevans began to realize his ambitions from the western part of the Southland.

And now, the western part of the southern continent has been almost completely shrouded in darkness.

All the city-states of the Iquir Plain are also considered to be relatively well-developed in the western part of the southern continent, and at night, the most basic street lighting is still available.

At this time, in a certain city-state, under the bright lights of the streets, the corpses of human soldiers who had fallen in pools of blood, almost broken into pieces, were illuminated.

In the distance, there were still screams from the dark streets.

This is the fifth city-state that Lil has visited, and the first four have already fallen to Lil's brutal slaughter.

With the disappearance of Lyrea and the departure of Gist, there is no other existence in the entire Iquir Plain that can compete with Lil, and although each city-state has at least 7,000 troops, it cannot resist Lil's terrifying speed.

In the face of sheer speed and strength, numbers are not an advantage, and Lil can kill a dozen or even dozens of soldiers in an instant, and no one can see what kind of actions Lil made when killing.

All the soldiers who had been able to witness Lil's slaughter was an unsightly figure shuttling between their companions, who, without warning, suddenly split into several pieces.

The only thing that could be clearly perceived through the senses was the screams that echoed in the ears and the oozing laughter. And in the next second, death befell the witnesses.

On the main road leading to the residence of the city-state lord of the city-state, under the light of the streetlamp was a whole road of corpses. At the end of the road, Lil walked towards the city-lord's residence with a smile on her face, while the blood of the soldiers she had killed continued to flow into her body.

Lil's scarlet-shining eyes, her happy and terrifying smile, her shrill laughter, and the blood stains all over her body, against the backdrop of that dark and bloody environment, anyone who saw this scene would probably be furious.

Walking along the way with mutilated corpses, Liel soon came to the residence of the city-state's lord.

Through her only ability, Lil could clearly see that there were about thirty people in the house at this time, and all of them were members of the city-state lord's family except for the city-state lord. And all the soldiers in this city-state have been killed by Lil.

With a smile on her face, Liel walked to the door of the mansion, knocked lightly and politely, and said, "Mr. City-State Lord, Lil is here to take your life, and there is no malice, can you open the door?" If you're willing to open the door, then Liel will be very happy~."

However, after a few minutes, no one came to open the door.

"Sir, if you don't open the door, then Liel will choose one of the people in this mansion and kill him, and as for who Lill chooses, Liel doesn't know!" Lil said in a very playful and cute tone, and knocked on the door again.

After a few more minutes of waiting, Lil's patience was exhausted.

And just as she pulled out the blood-stained dagger, the door slowly opened.

The city-state's lord fell to his knees in front of Lil as soon as he opened the door, sobbing, "Please spare ...... My family, I'm willing to do everything......

"Wouldn't it be nice to do it sooner?" Liel smiled again, and then swung the dagger in her hand quickly.

A hoarse scream rang out, and one of the city-lord's eyeballs was instantly gouged out by Lil, who covered his bleeding eye socket, and the pain made him roll on the ground.

Lil looked at the blood-stained cracked eyeballs on the tip of the dagger, and couldn't help but stick out her tongue and lick it, as if she were tasting the deliciousness.

"This blood tastes so good, I'd love to taste a little more of your blood. However, it is a pity that the master wants Liel not to kill those who are willing to surrender.'" Liel flicked the dagger and shook the eyeball off.

Then, Liel stabbed the city-state lord in front of him in the shoulder again, and whispered, "Then Lil will be willing to submit to your master, you can not deceive Lil, or ......

As she spoke, Lil spun the dagger in her hand and scooped a piece of flesh off the city-lord's shoulder.

"I'm going to ...... I won't lie to you......' the city-lord said in a shakty voice, holding back the pain.

Receiving a clear answer, Lil left contentedly and headed for the next city-state.

——————————————

As Lil reached the gates of the sixth city-state, she stopped.

Lil saw that there were nearly 100,000 soldiers in ambush in the city-state, and these soldiers were probably gathered by the surrounding city-states, presumably to launch a surprise attack after Lil entered.

But they didn't expect that before Liel entered each city-state, she would be able to use her special abilities to see what was in that city-state.

For Lil, only she attacks others, and no one else can attack her.

"Hmm...... What a grand welcome, master, what should Lil do if this is the case?" Lil hesitated for a moment, then asked Artevans with her thoughts.

Although Lil's strength is very strong compared to these humans, it is still a little unbearable to face nearly 100,000 soldiers at the same time.

Lil's question was not answered verbally by Atellance, but a black mist appeared beside Lil, revealing Atvance's form.

"Just leave it to me here, you can go back and rest first." As he spoke, Artevans took a step forward, stretched out his hand, and unfolded a purple magic circle in front of him.

Lil nodded, bowed slightly to Atvance, and left.

"Those who don't know the height of the sky will pay the price after all......," Artevans said, and released the dark energy condensed in the magic array.

A large amount of thick black mist poured out of the magic circle and spread towards the city-state in front of Artfans.

After the black fog completely covered the city-state, what happened inside, Artevans knew very well, but he didn't care.

A minute later, Artevans withdrew the black mist that had spread out, along with the energy in the souls of more than a hundred thousand people.

Then he flew into the air, looking at the city-state that had not yet set foot in the distance, and his voice was mixed with magic, and he shouted, "If you also want death to befall you, resist it, but I can guarantee that you will not succeed." Whether you choose to obey me, or continue to struggle uselessly, please think carefully, and hopefully I will get a satisfactory answer tomorrow morning!"

With that, Atvance vanished.

——————————————

The Southern Continent, the stronghold of the demons.

"Rusa, how's it going?" As soon as Artevans entered the main hall, he asked.

"Judging from the results observed by the clones, there is already a disagreement between the remaining western city-states, with some city-state lords believing that they should obey, while others still insist on resisting." Rusa immediately tells Atellance what she has discovered.

This result was undoubtedly satisfactory to Artfans, and now that the initiative was entirely in his hands, the disagreement between the city-states and the disunity of the city-states would make his actions much easier.

"The western part of the Southern Continent is about to be in our hands." Atfans sneered and said.

"And when does Lord Artevans plan to attack the center?" Rusa looked at Artevans and said, "I've made a human named Lyrea."

"Don't worry, since you've already reformed him, let's test his effect first. Before the test is complete, let's take care of the western affairs." Atfans said with a wave of his hand.

Then he walked out of the main hall and looked in the direction of the middle of the Southern Continent.

"What kind of strong man is there in Fox City, I'm really looking forward to it......

——————————————

Somewhere in the middle of the Southern Continent, on the watchtower of a magnificent castle, stood three people.

"See? It is the darkness that symbolizes destruction.'" The person standing at the front of the front, staring in the direction of the western part of the Southern Continent, which had almost fallen, said softly.

"Oh? Is there finally some fun guys this time? I'm about to get tired of those humans, I really want to see what the aliens are like, you think so too, Lilith~' A person behind him looked at the doll in his hand and said with a happy face.

"Whoever they are, evil should be cut off!" The remaining figure snorted coldly and said.

This magnificent castle is located right in the middle of the city of Phoces.

At this time, everyone in the city of Phothes, as usual, was resting, and the whole city seemed silent and peaceful......
