Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Corrupted Star
In the city of Laiming Dynasty, many soldiers have completed their assembly and began to become orderly in preparation for the subsequent review.
The five commanders stood on a high place and commanded the assembly of many soldiers, and the joy on their faces was difficult to hide.
"It's finally time to wait!" "No matter what, we won this war, and that's enough." ”
"Yes, compared to His Excellency the Marshal, it will also be pleased." The other commander said the same, clearly overjoyed.
An extremely dazzling golden light pierced through the clouds and appeared in front of everyone, full of divine aura, and the soldiers who saw this scene couldn't help but be in awe.
"His Royal Highness is here! That's his power! The great power that belongs to the demigods of the Holy Star! The commander said excitedly.
There were also bursts of excited cheers from the many soldiers, and nothing could be more joyful than this moment, which represented the supreme glory.
The flicker of golden light became more and more intense, accompanied by the excited cheers of everyone, and soon, a familiar figure gradually emerged from it, and seeing this figure, the cheers of the soldiers below were even more excited.
The figure was obscured by the golden light, but the golden light began to fade, and people knew what it meant.
At the moment when the golden light dissipated, a strange black light covered the "Prince of Assisi" again, and this strange scene made the soldiers wonder.
"Huh? What is that? The commander wondered, "That black light is not the power of His Royal Highness?" ”
The other commanders were the same, and many of the soldiers were also talking, and suddenly a piercing scream appeared in the midst of this small discussion.
The pondering commander hurriedly looked at it, and the golden light in the sky had completely disappeared, replaced by a black light full of ominous aura.
From the black light, many black tentacles with sharp heads appeared, and they rushed towards everyone at an extremely fast speed, and dozens of soldiers were pierced by it in an instant.
The people who were pierced by the tentacles only let out a scream, and they couldn't even struggle, and a large amount of black energy appeared on the tentacles to instantly erode these people, and soon they all turned into a viscous black substance, which was absorbed by the black light.
"Don't panic! Set up your defenses! Before the commander could finish the most critical order with the Dark......wings, he was pierced by the extremely fast black tentacles, and disappeared completely in the blink of an eye.
The faces of the remaining commanders changed drastically, and they did not dare to give orders at all, so they had to follow the soldiers to flee for their lives.
The mutation happened so suddenly that the royal army could not put up an effective resistance, and these black tentacles were not something they could resist.
Soon, three of the five surviving commanders were wiped out by the black tentacles, merging into the black light, and the number of soldiers killed was uncountable.
As more and more living people were reduced to dark matter and merged into the black light, more black tentacles appeared, rushing towards those who were running for their lives at unimaginable speeds.
What had been a magnificent parade turned into an unbelievable black hell that the commanders and soldiers could never have dreamed of.
In the Ming Emperor Plain, Avisha and Karena had already stepped off the Demon Slayer Star, and the princess's face was very pale, and the guards next to her looked at her worriedly.
However, Avitha's tired face quickly turned to horror, and she looked into the city, where the scene was simply beyond her fear.
Countless black tentacles lifted the pierced humans in the air, and a large amount of black light continued to emit in all directions, like a nightmare in the world.
"That's ...... What is it? Seeing this scene, Karina's eyes also widened in surprise.
"I can only conclude that the Demon God Cultists did it." Avissa muttered, "But what kind of monster is that?" ”
Although she had seen the horrors of the Demon God Cult, Avisha still underestimated the abilities of these cultists.
"I didn't expect these hundreds of years of silence to make them develop to such a point." Avisha said.
"So what do we do now?" Karena asked, "If we rush into the city, we will be in great danger."
"Either way, we need to see what that thing is." Avisha looked at Karena, her green eyes revealing a rare firmness, and the other party nodded.
The two walked to the waiting Demon Slayer, and Avisha took a step forward, but suddenly stopped her next move.
Her face was filled with a look of surprise, incredulity, and more complex emotions, and she turned her head stiffly to the left.
There stood a slender woman, and although it was far away, Avissa could still see the woman's appearance.
She has the same long golden hair, the same green eyes, and the incomparable noble temperament of a princess, and she misses her irrepressibly.
"Sister...... Sister? Avissa muttered, and ran toward the woman, the most excited run she had ever written.
However, just as she was about to approach Laetia, she stopped again, and she looked at her sister in amazement.
Laetitia shook her head slowly, motioning for Avissa not to approach her, and then slowly opened her mouth:
"Don't go into the city, get out of here."
Looking at her familiar sister, Laetita smiled indescribably and slowly turned away.
"Why...... Sister? Why the hell is that......" Avissa muttered as if she had lost her soul.
However, the figure of the woman in front of her gradually disappeared until it disappeared completely, and Avisha could only watch this painful moment.
Karena rushed over, with a heavy look on her face, "Your Highness, are you okay?" ”
Avisha's eyes were already moist, but she forcibly controlled her tears and said, "I'm fine." ”
"Let's go, let's go to the city." Avissa walked towards the Demon Slayer, followed by Karina, she didn't know what the woman had said to her, but she vaguely guessed who it was.
Laedia and Avissa can be said to have been close since childhood, and after Laedia's accident, Avissa began to confront everyone, including the Empress and Yasha, and even openly refuted it.
The feelings in this are really very strong, and Karena has been silently watching all this, although she is only a guard, but she knows her master very well.
"We're just going to go there and have a look, figure out what it is, and then get back as soon as we can." Avisha said.
The two of them boarded the Demon Killing Star and quickly flew towards the city of Laiming.
……
Outside the city of Laiming Dynasty, Bai Xuanyi and Leto had already left the city and began to plan their next step.
The nightmarish scene in the city was also in full view of the two of them at this moment, Leto could only vaguely see a strange black light, while Bai Xuanyi saw everything that happened with his enchanted vision.
Bai Xuanyi's face became paler, and the scene in the city was even more shocking than the red wing she had seen before, but this time the shock was based on cruelty.
"What is that?" Bai Xuanyi muttered, and the terrifying energy from the black light made her faintly affected.
From the largest black light in the sky, Bai Xuanyi sensed an extremely powerful energy source, and she didn't know what it was.
"Let's go! What is happening here has nothing to do with us anymore. Leto said horrified.
"Hmm." Bai Xuanyi also had the same idea, although the changes that occurred in the city were unsightly, but at this time she had nothing to do with them, and she didn't want to take such a big risk.
The two turned to leave, and after walking a few steps, Bai Xuanyi suddenly stopped, looked back, and saw a huge ball of black light rushing towards them impartially.
Bai Xuanyi hurriedly spread out her hands, and a white barrier appeared in front of her, and Leto on the side was shocked by the violent impact of the light ball before she could react.
The black ball of light was firmly blocked by the barrier, but there was no sign of dissipation, and its energy was gradually getting stronger.
Leto hurriedly pulled out his giant axe and slashed towards the black ball of light, but was knocked to the ground by the powerful impact.
Seeing this, Bai Xuanyi summoned her silver-white spear, took a deep breath, and stabbed towards the ball of light, the powerful impact force sent her white hair flying, but she herself did not move a bit.
Leto, who fell to the ground, looked at this scene in amazement, the strength displayed by Bai Xuanyi had reached the level of a dazzling star, far surpassing himself.
Bai Xuanyi gradually pushed the spear into the ball of light, and finally the entire spear completely submerged into the black ball of light.
The ball of light instantly erupted with extremely dazzling white light, and exploded in the next second, and Bai Xuanyi used a barrier to block the power of the explosion.
"It's really thrilling...... Bai Xuanyi wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, while Leto on the ground also stood up.
Bai Xuanyi looked at the city again, with a frightened look on his face, "Run!" ”
With that, she ran towards the east at great speed, and Leto hurriedly put away her axe and followed.
Because of Xu Mingjian's back, Leto's speed slowed down a lot, but he was still able to keep up with Bai Xuanyi.
The two ran for a long time, and finally stopped on a small high slope, and both of them couldn't stop panting.
"If we had been one step too late just now, countless balls of light would have blasted us to the ground."
Leto smiled, but saw Bai Xuanyi's expression become nervous again, and a blue light flashed in front of the two.
"Xiao Yu? Chino? Bai Xuanyi, who saw the blue light, shouted, but there was no response.
The blue light flashed again, but this time it passed by Bai Xuanyi's side, giving her an extremely uneasy feeling.
The blue light flew in the direction of the city of Laiming and quickly disappeared from the field of vision of the two.
"You know? The ...... Light? Leto asked incredulously.
Bai Xuanyi didn't answer, just looked at the direction where the blue light flew and muttered:
"Is there anything you're interested in? Chino? ”
