Chapter 538: Torment
If you get lost in the desert, what is the easiest thing to kill? Not thirst, not without food, not without direction, but despair.
If trapped in a labyrinth, what is the easiest thing to kill someone? It's not that you can't find an exit, it's not all kinds of traps, it's not all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts, it's despair.
If a person is desperate, then, even if he has enough food and clothing, he is not far from death.
At this point, we were all in despair, so I knew that we were all not far from death now.
The bat god roared again, and struggled to break the net at the end, he raised his sword and swooped down up and down, each of us had to deal with the enemy, and it was impossible to stop him.
"Come back soon!" I shouted and tried to follow, but countless enemy soldiers immediately surrounded us, completely isolating us from the bat god.
The five of us gathered in a circle, defending and counterattacking, and we could have held out for a while, but now the Bat God suddenly made this impulsive move, not only throwing his own life to the king of Yama, but also pulling us down together.
The enemy soldiers quickly surrounded the bat god and attacked from all sides, although the bat god was a sword god, but he only had a sword and a pair of hands, and it was impossible to take care of everything, so the consequences could be imagined, he slashed and killed indiscriminately for a while, and he was hit several times in the back, the skin was open and the flesh was blurred, and when he turned around and slashed the enemy soldiers behind him, his body had already been inserted with several swords.
There are also countless soldiers and horses besieging us on our side, and we have no time to care about his life or death, and after we don't have him, the defense becomes even more difficult, at this time, Bai Nuoxin and Xuanyun have to fight back desperately, and in the blink of an eye, our bodies have several more knives, even the old Dao who has been hiding in the middle and is weak cannot be spared.
The Bat God's body is like a magnet, absorbing all the iron weapons around him, although he has countless swords inserted in his body now, but the enemy soldiers did not stop there, they continued to slash at the Bat God's upper body.
The Bat God roared fiercely, made a final struggle, gathered all his strength, and slashed at us with a sword.
The sword aura was like a rainbow, and it flew over, knocking a large number of enemy soldiers besieging us to the ground.
And the bat god himself, after cutting this sword, died of anger, and stood stiffly in place, not falling down for a long time.
Perhaps the enemy soldiers were frightened by his momentum, looking at the bat god still standing with his eyes staring, majestic, like a beast sworn to defend his territory, for a while everyone did not dare to come forward to attack, after a while, among the enemy soldiers, I don't know who it was, took the lead in rushing forward, a sword stabbed past, but the bat god did not move, everyone rushed up, slashed with a knife, and competed to divide the body of the bat god.
You must know that these little soldiers, as long as they get one of the arms of the Bat God, and then take it back to receive a reward from the Fire Demon, they can leap into the sky and live the life of a superior person, so the enemy soldiers at this time, like a group of vultures, are all vying to eat the delicious fat of the Bat God.
In the blink of an eye, the bat god separated his hands and feet, and his head and body were all carved up.
The soldier who snatched the head of the bat god cheered and danced, extremely happy, this head weighed eight or nine catties, but it was definitely more valuable than eight or nine catties of high-grade red spirit stones, so it was reasonable for him to cheer.
But unfortunately, in the crowd, there were many people who coveted the head of the bat god, I don't know who it was, and they couldn't see the happy appearance of this little soldier, so they suddenly stabbed in the back, directly causing the cheering little soldier to fall directly from heaven to hell, and his expression stiffened.
So, a group of soldiers began to fight each other again for the head of the bat god.
The fire demon watched from the sky, smiling slightly, and did not stop his soldiers from fighting, as if they were fighting like this, which was exactly what he wanted.
And on our side, there are still countless soldiers and horses besieging us.
I, Bai Nuoxin, and Xuanyun were back to back, sandwiching the old way in the middle, and then guarding each other, although the enemy soldiers were all hanging three feet from us, after all, our bodies, even if they were just a tooth, could at least allow them to exchange for a lifetime of glory and wealth.
We had several more knives on us, and we were all exhausted, and the soldiers became more cautious at this time, after all, it was really not worth dying now, because it would not be long before the four of us would definitely hang up, and when the time came, they would snatch one of our hands and feet in the chaos, and it would really be a big leap to the sky.
I've run out of rune paper a long time ago, otherwise I'd have blown up these vultures with rune paper by now.
"Come on, let's go together!" One of the enemy soldiers in front of me shouted, but he didn't take the lead himself.
The other soldiers were not stupid, because everyone knew that the first one to go up would definitely become a meat target, and the one who swarmed up after that would be able to take advantage of the chaos.
The enemy soldiers want to go up but don't dare to go easily, just like a pervert who has seen a beautiful woman, wants to do it but doesn't dare to do it, salivating, ready to move, can only suffer in impatience.
This torment, with its adrenaline, is prone to impulsive and reckless things in impatience.
Sure enough, among the enemy soldiers, some people finally couldn't bear it anymore and slashed at me with a knife.
I stabbed him with a sword, skewered him like a meatball, lifted it up and threw it into the crowd below the hillside, knocking down countless enemy soldiers.
Countless enemy soldiers saw that there was already a bird, and although this bird had been killed, they still responded and swarmed together.
And so, the scene began to get out of hand again.
We were slashing and slashing, and my eyes turned red again, and everything I saw was red.
Xuanyun and Bai Nuoxin, there were constant screams of pain, more and more knives fell on them, and more and more fell on me, but I didn't say anything, whoever cut me with a knife, I directly stabbed it with a sword.
I found that I was getting harder and harder, and I was also finding that I was getting more and more desperate.
I thought that when I was besieged on the top of the hill, I had reached the limit of my despair, but I didn't expect that there was no most despair, only more despair.
I don't defend now, I open my chest and let them cut me, and whoever cuts me I'll stab him to death immediately, I'm a dying person anyway, and I don't care about one or two more wounds on my body.
I heard that despair is like a long-distance run, as long as you survive the most difficult section in the middle, you can reach the end of hope.
This sentence is used to describe our current situation, and it could not be more appropriate.
We have been holding on to the death, and the most difficult part has finally passed.
There was a sudden "boom" in the sky, which shook everyone to look at the sky in a panic, even the fire demons.
The black-purple vortex overhead, that is, the Purple Netherworld, began to rotate and expand again, obscuring the entire blue sky, like a giant eye in the sky.
When the Flame Demon saw this giant eye, he couldn't help frowning, because he didn't know why his own Purple Nether Dao suddenly expanded and became bigger, but one thing he was sure of was that in the near future, something would definitely fall from that giant eye in the sky.
And this thing that fell was definitely not going to be a good thing for him.
