Chapter 36: Into Hell (Part II)
Bai Xuanyi and the others ran to deal with the swarming demons, and soon, Bai Xuanyi could vaguely see the building not far away.
It was a small cottage with half of the roof lifted, and although it looked mottled, it was good compared to other buildings.
Xu Mingjian waved the long sword in his hand and split a skeleton cavalryman in front of him, and then shouted, "We're almost there!" Keep up, everybody! ”
Although the road where everyone was located had been damaged a little, its traffic level was still okay, and Bai Xuanyi could already see the flower bed in front of the small villa.
At this moment, a strong tremor came from the ground, and everyone who was speeding was caught off guard, and they all lost their footing, and almost collapsed.
"What's going on?" The tall aristocratic boy shouted in panic, "Earthquake? It's impossible! ”
A flat field in front of the villa was torn apart, and a huge skeletal hand stretched out from the crack in the ground.
"Ahh What the hell is this?! The emaciated aristocratic boy was visibly startled by the monster.
The bone hand slammed into the road in front of everyone from a height of ten meters in the air, and the huge impact almost shook the unsteady people away.
"Giant skeletons?" Bai Xuanyi shouted, and at the same time quickly provoked, throwing the silver ball of light accurately at the skeleton cavalry rushing next to him.
"There's no such thing!" The aristocratic maiden shouted, "That should be the skeleton commander of the Demon Legion!" We can't let it appear completely on the surface! ”
The young man beside the girl spread out his hands, and a narrow purple scimitar appeared in his hand, and strong energy fluctuations wrapped around the energy blade.
Under the astonished gaze of everyone, the young man jumped to his feet and slashed the scimitar into the huge bone hand in front of him.
The energy weapon seemed to have unimaginable power, and the bone hand was easily cut in half, and the fallen ordinary arm slammed into the ground.
"Well done!" Xu Mingjian praised, "Now it can't continue to destroy the surface." ”
However, what he never expected was that the severed arm that fell to the ground began to turn into bone slag, quickly fusing with the huge bone hand that was still waving!
"This ...... It also regenerates?!! Xu Mingjian was so shocked that he didn't even see the Flame Demon Fireball attacking from the left.
Bai Xuanyi hurriedly released a light barrier to resist the fireball, and at the same time glanced at Xu Mingjian with a slight reproach, "What kind of god?" If it weren't for me, you'd be dead by now! ”
"Then we may not be able to go to the house in front." Xu Mingjian said, "We have to change our stronghold!"
"Huh? It's a shame! The young man wielding the great axe grumbled as he split the skeleton cavalry in front of him in half, "Is there a better way?" ”
"We'll talk about that later! The skeleton in front of me is about to smash over!! The emaciated boy with his bow and arrow shouted, "Find a way to stop it!" ”
The huge bone hand, which had fully recovered, danced in mid-air a few times, and then slammed towards Bai Xuanyi.
At the moment when it was about to be touched, the silver barrier blocked the bone hand, and Bai Xuanyi gritted his teeth, barely supporting the barrier spell that required great strength.
The surrounding demons gradually decreased, and Xu Mingjian swung a blue light blade at the bone hand with a long sword in his hand, but it only made a small hole, and it quickly healed.
Even more terrifying, the rift in the surface where the Bone Hand is located is constantly expanding, and the Skeleton Commander is trying to descend completely on the surface.
Small beads of sweat continued to gush out of Bai Xuanyi's forehead, and the light in her silver eyes became more and more intense, she was about to exhaust her strength.
At this moment, a warm green light came from behind, Bai Xuanyi turned around in surprise, and found that the noble girl just now was placing her right hand on her back, and bursts of green light with a recovery effect made Bai Xuanyi's lost strength constantly replenished.
"You...... What the hell is ......" Bai Xuanyi couldn't help asking, but the woman just smiled faintly, and Bai Xuanyi didn't ask again.
The surrounding demons had all been destroyed, but the giant claws of the giant bone hand firmly grasped Bai Xuanyi's silver barrier, and under its continuous strengthening, the silver barrier had begun to appear faint cracks.
"It's not the way to go." Xu Mingjian said, "Is there any way we can stop this monster?" ”
The young man on the side aimed his bow and arrow at the bone hand, and at the same time motioned for the young man with the giant axe next to him to come over.
The young man of the great axe understood and gently placed the blade of the axe on the cluster of arrows in his bow, and the intense golden light flickered like a spark.
"Over there...... Your name is Bai Xuanyi, right? "Is there a way to make a small opening in your barrier?" ”
Bai Xuanyi glanced back at him and said, "Yes, but it can only be held for three seconds." ”
"That's enough." The young man's voice was full of confidence, "Then please, I'll count to three, and then you will open the gap in the barrier!" ”
Bai Xuanyi began to concentrate, this was the first time she had tried this kind of operation, so she couldn't guarantee that she could do it very smoothly.
"Three...... Two ......" the boy tightened the bowstring, "One! ”
The arrows with a golden glare were launched in an instant, and Bai Xuanyi succeeded in causing a gap in the barrier.
The arrow hit the palm of the bone hand accurately, and the huge impact instantly caused the entire bone hand to fall backwards heavily.
"What a strong force...... Xu Mingjian couldn't help but be surprised, and then shouted again, "Good opportunity, let's go!" ”
The crowd sprang up again, and before the skeleton commander could come to his senses, they all walked around the side path.
Five minutes later, the group came to a small forest of relative safety, where the trees were almost burned to ashes, but there were surprisingly few demons.
"It's like there's a log cabin here." "If it's still there, we can use it as a stronghold." ”
"Wooden House ......" Xu Mingjian scratched his head, "I don't think it's very likely that it still exists." ”
"Anyway, let's go find out." The archer boy said, "Maybe it's still there." ”
"Okay, but everyone is tired, so let's take a rest." Xu Mingjian walked over to a blackened tree stump and sat down slowly.
Bai Xuanyi also found a place to sit down, she consumed too much energy just now, even if the woman replenished it, it was still too much.
The once lush woods had become barren, and all that remained was a few charred stumps, and the catastrophe caused by the demonic invasion was undoubtedly extremely terrifying.
It's just that Bai Xuanyi has never been able to understand why the academy would use this as a training ground for freshmen?
With Principal Lan Kuangming's character, he would definitely not be the one to make such a decision, and neither should those school directors.
Even if it is unbearable, the school manager should also pay attention to the safety of the lives of his own family descendants, so it is impossible to do this.
Then it must be some more powerful high-ranking people who deliberately orchestrated such a terrible training.
......
Dream Imperial City Palace, Princess Avisha has been back here for three days.
The princess doesn't seem to be so happy, because when she returns to the palace, she finds that almost everyone has changed.
The first is the matter of her sister Ladia, the Empress tells her that she has moved Laetitia to a place where she can be healed, but when Avissa asks where it is, the Empress always avoids it.
Later, when Avisa learned of the tragedy in the city of Lymin from her mother, she volunteered to fight against the hateful demons, but the Empress did not grant her request.
"The Demon Legion is not as weak as the monsters you have defeated, and if something happens to you, the consequences will not be affordable for the entire empire." The Empress's words were always cherished by Avitha.
What did Mother think of herself? I'm no longer the kid I used to be.
So Avisha locked herself in the training room to improve her strength, and to her delight, she was only one step away from Yaoxing. Once she broke through to the Flare, then the Empress had no reason to refuse her request again.
Avissa walked out of the cultivation room and wandered around the palace, everything around her made her feel relaxed.
A slender figure not far away attracted her attention, wasn't that Aunt Yasha?
"Aunt Asha!" Avisha shouted, "Why are you here?" ”
Yasha looked up, seemingly startled, but quickly responded, "Avisha? ”
The two of them walked together, and Avisha took the opportunity to ask a few questions that her mother was unwilling to answer her, but the aunt seemed to mean the same thing.
What is this...... Avisha grumbled inwardly.
"By the way, when you were in retreat, a big man came to the palace." Yasha said.
"Who is it?" Avisha asked curiously.
"Prince Aupulos, Assis, you should have heard of his great name." Yasha said as she looked at Avisha.
"The maverick prince?" Avissa was surprised, "Who doesn't know him?" But it's really rare for him to come to the palace......"
"That's right, the matter of the demon invasion has attracted the attention of many big people." Yasha said with a little worry, "I don't know what happened to the old Earl Drenx. ”
"I mean, I'll go to the front lines to fight those damned demons...... "I'll be able to drive them back to Hell!" ”
Yasha smiled, and was about to say something, but her face suddenly changed.
"What's wrong? Youngest maternal aunt? Avisha wondered.
"I'm sorry, Avisha, I have something urgent right now." Yasha said hurriedly, and then quickly walked away from Avisha's side.
“...... Why has my aunt become so strange......" Avissa said puzzled.
