Chapter 11: Witchcraft and Strange Things, Treasures of the Town

The castle of demons, surrounded by mountains, radiates outward from the pass, and is the most typical easy to defend and difficult to attack on the terrain, condescending...... Of course, the entire terrain is deliberately designed and solidified with powerful spells, and it is like a floating and moving island in the entire Flowing Earth World of the Fourth Realm, serving as a place for high-level professionals.

If it was in the ancient battlefield of the earth, any military general with a clear mind would never be willing to attack such a peerless danger when he saw such terrain, even if he had more than ten times the number of troops.

But this is the wizarding world, the fourth realm of darkness, the monsters on the Great Plains of Despair are generally fourth-order lifeforms, the elite monster leader is strong at the fourth order, almost equal to or even slightly stronger than ordinary legends, mutated monster leaders, it is possible to be infinitely close to the existence of demigods, but there are also some mutated weaker, even less powerful than elite monsters.

And those who themselves are in the realm of the Abyss Demon Dragon King, the dark gold boss leaders who have been dispersed, all have names and surnames, and their strength is relatively powerful even among the demigods, but this kind of existence is also rare in the Great Plains of Despair, after all, when the Abyss Demon Dragon King fought with the Witch Emperor Kasa, it was quite difficult for these cannon fodder to successfully survive the attack overflow.

But even if the number is scarce, once the professional squad encounters it, it is extremely lucky that one or two people can escape.

The Demon Castle has a great advantage in terms of geographical advantages, but the comparison between the combat power of high-level professionals and monster frenzy is reversed, and it is already at an absolute disadvantage.

The Demon Castle was built and repeatedly restored by the Wizard City Council, and is the front-line war base, and for five years, the Wizard City has never stopped investing in it, including the "Throne of Radiance" stored by the Great Wizard of the Light Forbidden Spell.

Once the forbidden spell is activated, it can knock down all enemy non-demigod and below existence in the domain by one order, and the defense power will be greatly reduced, and all non-demigod existence and below existence on the other side can be raised by one order, and at the same time, it will receive a steady stream of physical replenishment and health recovery effects in the field.

The effect of this forbidden spell is terrifying, especially for the Legion.

However, although this is a continuous forbidden spell, it is still only valid for three days, which is far from enough compared to the surging monster frenzy, and in the first few rounds of offensive and defensive battles, almost all of them are after the end of the Throne of Radiance, the defense system of the demon castle is completely destroyed, and the city is destroyed.

In addition, the spell traps and magic cannons arranged on the city wall, although they are all defensive weapons, but their effect on the overall battle is only a drop in the bucket, judging from the comparison of paper data, it is almost an impossible task to defend the demon castle in the face of the monster frenzy.

In the past half a month, a large number of elites of the Chinese Warriors Association and a large number of elites of the Wizard City Secondary Faculty Academy have all gathered in the Demon Castle.

It's just that under the oppression of the Government Council, they can't and dare not send elite professionals, and the combat strength of troops like this, who do not pursue victory and are ready to smear oil on the soles of their feet at any time, can be fully expected.

In fact, at the beginning of the development of the Dark Realm, the Wizard City Minor Faculty Academy was not without ideals, and they also knew what huge benefits they could obtain if they could break through the Dark World.

Therefore, the previous few decisive battles to defend the Demon Castle were also combined and made great efforts, but it was precisely because of this that they saw the absolute combat power gap between the professional and the high-level monsters, that they felt desperate.

Now that the Chinese warriors will take over the baton, the mentality of these secondary academies is very subtle...... We've all lost, and if we let you do it, wouldn't it seem like we're incompetent?

It is precisely because he grasps the subtle mentality of these high-level professionals of the academic school, so Zhu Peng does not calculate them as their combat strength at all, and all of them are broken up and divided into professional squads, and they are patrolled to check and fill in the gaps, unless the front has completely collapsed, otherwise they will only have the share of beating the side drum and playing soy sauce.

The hegemony itself cannot be shared, and Zhu Peng intends to take the main force of the Chinese Warrior Association at the forefront this time, and at the same time swallow the lion's share of the cake while bearing losses.

And with the arrival of the main force of the Chinese Warrior Association, it is Xu Baishan, the last ranked sword in the Shenwu Pavilion, and the reincarnated dragon king Chahuang Keman, the world of high martial arts and high demons is like this, when Li Jingxuan is here, all the forces of the sect are sent to the front line, as long as Li Jingxuan is still guarding the sect, it is not considered a defensive emptiness.

But on the other hand, as soon as Li Jingxuan left, at least most of the elders of the Shenwu Pavilion were guarding inside the sect, the martial arts classics, the treasures of the divine soldiers, and the data files, once these things were touched in one go, even if the Nuo Great Sect did not fall apart, at least it would be greatly damaged.

Therefore, even if it was a battle related to the sect's qi in the next twenty years, the elders of the Shenwu Pavilion could only send out two of the weakest ones. Of course, this is not the real reason that can be put on the table, the real reason why Xu Baishan and Emperor Cha Keman are sent is that Xu Baishan is the Taoist old-timer who can best cooperate with Zhu Peng, he is highly respected, and he is relatively smooth and steady.

Emperor Cha Keman is a pavilion elder who is in charge of the "strange things" of the sect, and his power is weaker than that of other pavilion elders, but the things he masters are really important weapons of the sect.

When someone sent the things that were guarded by Xu Baishan and Emperor Cha Keman, they traveled thousands of miles from the Wizard City to the Demon Castle, even Zhu Peng took a break from his busy schedule before the war, and then personally greeted the two pavilion elders and the heavy weapon of the sect that could be called the suppression of the Chinese warriors.

"We brought something to you, it can't be put in storage equipment, and Lao Xu and I must have someone guarding it, can't we all go to the front line to help you, no problem, right?"

After Zhu Peng saw the brocade box covered with gold silk, he didn't even care about etiquette, and ignored Xu Baishan and Emperor Cha Keman for the time being, but was so deeply that he hugged his fist at the brocade box and gave an ancient salute.

The two old men next to him also looked strange, it was not like this in the Earth Age, but in the current wizard era, every Chinese remnant will feel a little nostalgic when they see this Zhenzong heavy weapon.

When the abyss invaded, the earth's pan-consciousness was directly shattered by the will of the abyss, and most of the overflowing energy was attributed to human beings, stimulating the spiritual power cultivation qualifications or talent abilities of many earth remnants, but a small part of them were fused with animals, plants and even artifacts, forming many strange and unfathomable existences.

Zhu Peng's uncle Li Daoman's Dongying Demon Sword Prison Huangquan is one of them, attacking the heart of killing, with Li Daoman's "mind-reading" ability, the power is as strong as the legendary weapon is close to the epic divine weapon, and it is a combat-type witchcraft that can gradually increase its power as Li Daoman's cultivation improves.

As a powerful sect that inherits the afterglow of the earth's civilization, the Chinese Warriors Association has collected a lot of witchcraft and strange things after a little recovery over the years, because witchcraft is difficult to find and activate, and no organization will know more about the history of the earth's civilization than a sect like the Chinese Warriors Association.

And the more important the antiquities occupy in the process of earth's civilization, once they form witchcraft and strange things, their power will be greater than the same year, although their functions may be difficult to understand.

As the deputy sect leader of the Chinese Warriors Association, Zhu Peng has the right to read and know about these collected witchcraft and strange things, most of which are miscellaneous things that make people confused about the effect, and even very troublesome...... For example, an old Dongying TV that always crawls out of the woman in white is locked at the bottom of the storage room, and even a legendary powerhouse like Zha Huang Keman does not dare to touch it easily.

For example, a bronze cup that keeps spilling blood, some death row prisoners drink the blood and explode directly, and some death row prisoners have no reaction after drinking, and the blood will quickly vaporize after leaving the bronze cup, and it cannot be stored, as long as it overflows to most of the cup, it will not overflow again, and the current range of action is unknown.

Of course, the effect is particularly strong is not nothing, among the witchcraft wonders collected by the Chinese warriors, there is a simple mask made of gold, the effect is to make the person who wears it become a fourth-order demigod lifeform in a very short time, no matter what kind of foundation, even if it is just an ordinary person, as long as he wears that golden mask, he will directly have evil power and then grow at a terrifying speed, and be promoted to the demigod level in a very short time.

The death row inmates used for the experiment did not have any abnormal reaction at the time, and later returned to the prison and sucked the entire prison into dry corpses overnight, and severely injured the emperor who rushed over.

Later, it was Li Jingxuan who personally took action, and successfully subdued the vampire monster wearing a golden mask, and successfully removed this witchcraft monster, but after the golden mask was removed, the vampire monster with demigod-level combat power also died quickly, the effectiveness of this witchcraft monster is extremely amazing, but it seems that the price paid by people is also extremely amazing, even the high-level Chinese Warriors Association who are extremely eager for strength and breakthrough are mostly grateful for this mask, and the death row prisoner wearing the golden mask is obviously no longer himself, and the witchcraft monster seems to be attached to the ghost that wanders through the agesใ€‚

Fortunately, as long as no one wears this golden mask, it is just an ordinary mask, and it does not have too much other power.

In addition, there is the seven-star sword in Xu Baishan's hand, the existence of the Daomen itself is easy to inherit antiquities, and the probability of obtaining witchcraft artifacts is also greater, Xu Baishan's seven-star sword as a witchcraft artifact, although the power is not great, but it is easy to use, after the sword master has poured energy inward for a long time, he can hit a blow that is one order higher than himself, the highest demigod level.

This seven-star sword is also one of the hole cards that Xu Baishan could lead the Daomen and the future Bright Buddha Fuhui to play against the stage, and later as the gap between the two sides widened, Xu Baishan saw that the situation was not good, so he hurried to find Li Daoman, who was still hiding in his own Taoist temple, and then involved Zhu Peng.

Xu Baishan's seven-star sword is his killer move at the bottom of the box, Zhu Peng knows, Li Daoman knows, one or two elders of Shenwu Pavilion also know, and the rest are almost unknown anymore, and it is something that can be used to turn the tables at a critical moment.

But the above-mentioned witchcraft and strange objects are not in front of Zhu Peng's eyes, the treasures contained in the brocade box covered with gold silk are exaggerated, this is the real treasure of Zhenzong, and it is also the biggest reliance that Zhu Peng feels that he can defend the castle of demons.

"The two elders, please enter the city, as for this heavy treasure, it will be placed with me for the time being, as long as Zhu Peng does not die, this treasure will never be lost. Zhu Peng raised his arm sideways and asked Xu Baishan and Emperor Cha to enter the city.

When he walked inside, Xu Baishan whispered to Zhu Peng:

"Peng'er, this treasure is of course extremely powerful, but people who don't have enough life can use it to consume luck, and even lose their lifespan, it is because the people who have it continue to die violently, we can finally get it back, the historical significance of this heavy treasure, and the power it absorbs once it becomes a witchcraft artifact, you should know better than me. โ€

"The battle of the demon castle is also related to the number of qi of the sect in the next twenty years, since the two Song Dynasty, the people in my Taoist sect pay attention to being a person by the way, and become an immortal against the sky, although this heavy treasure has a vast destiny, but it can't be controlled by us outsiders, I respect it only for its history, and for the homeland it represents...... But if it wants to kill my luck and destroy my life, it depends on whether it has the ability to do it. Although he knew that it was the old man's personal reminder, Zhu Peng still said with a straight face, listening to his words, Xu Baishan smiled.

"You, you...... Jin Xian, you can't grind, you have such a temperament. Shaking his head and chuckling, the old Taoist Xu Baishan let go of his worries, the people in the Taoist sect believe in the Destiny of Heaven the most, and they also don't believe in the Destiny of Heaven the most, because of the encroachment on creation, changing their lives against the sky, and even feathering up to immortals, these are the biggest challenges to the laws of heaven and earth, and the ideal of Taoism is to be above heaven and earth, and then grasp their own destiny.

After Zhu Peng entertained the two sect seniors who had traveled thousands of miles to support him, he returned to the Temporary City Lord's Mansion after nightfall.

When passing by the courtyard, I saw that in the background of the white stone clear pond, a big white fat meat worm was intimately rubbing against a giant beast wrapped in golden-red steel.

Kogas was visibly agitated, and it seemed that the hair all over his body had exploded, if it still had hair. The war beast quickly moved to the side, but the fat white flesh worm arched over and hooked the steel tail of Kogath with its own tail...... This picture is too spicy to the eyes, and Zhu Peng does not have the vice of peeping at the privacy of insects, so he quickly hides his face and leaves quickly.

During the video with Charlotte, Charlotte explained that Butch must take on this task, and in addition, the current legendary wizard who was formerly a brain worm is strong, and it is also of great help to Zhu Peng to control the Soul Slave Army, so there is really no reason to refuse.

Butch is the alien brain worm that Zhu Peng caught during his participation in the academy war, and Zhu Peng also won a medal of honor for it, and later the alien brain worm collectively surrendered to the wizarding world, and Charlotte's subordinates had many great wizards transformed from these brain worms, which were quite reliable and powerful.

The brain worm of the past, the current legendary wizard Butch was still in human wizard form when he first came, and Zhu Peng didn't recognize her at that time, but he only felt faintly familiar.

This brain worm harassed Kogas back then, and after so many years, it seems that her taste has not changed, but seeing Butch present the slave soul ring and the slave army inside, plus she is now Charlotte's person, Zhu Peng gritted his teeth and stomped his foot...... He sold the Kogas, who had followed him from birth to death for many years.

(Actually, if that guy really hates it, I didn't set it to not attack, I just let it entertain well...... When has this void beast been so obedient, it is not a superficial resistance, it is secretly refreshing in the heart, a single dog for ten thousand years, and now there are Zerg beauties upside down, what is there to be dissatisfied. Back in the office, Zhu Peng lit the lights and re-read the map of the city defense of the Demon Castle, and he repeatedly deduced all possible unexpected situations and his own solutions.

Time passed in this way, in the turbulent undercurrent and constant planning.

Even if the monsters stormed the city, the clean-up work of the high-level degenerates within the demon castle did not stop for a day, and even intensified with the approach of the war, and in the later stage, it almost reached the point of killing mistakes and not letting go.

Under such a high-pressure military management policy, Zhu Peng gradually completed the military dictatorship of the entire demon castle, how could he not know that such an oppressive policy was just to stop the boiling and temporarily stabilize the situation, the resentment of the high-level professionals was accumulating, and the leaders of the Wizard City Secondary Priest Academy were also sharpening their knives, once the battle was defeated, once the demon castle city was broken, the overturned Chinese Warrior Association would be stepped on by them with 10,000 feet. Someone must be responsible for such a big defeat, Zhu Peng is not even qualified, as the head of a sect, Li Jingxuan is afraid that he will have to pay for this for the rest of his life and completely sell himself to a certain transcendent throne.

Corresponding to it is the elite disciples of the Chinese Warriors Association, their number is no more than a thousand, but they are almost the most elite middle-level force of the entire sect, the team leader is a legendary martial arts sect, ten of the thirteen eagles are all among them, and the other three eagles either have other tasks or are injured and have not recovered, once these elites are exhausted, the Chinese Warriors Association will have a power fault, and the overall power of the sect will shrink significantly, because the scope of suppression of the strong is also limited, and the middle level needs to fill its flesh and bones and tendon tissuesใ€‚

After Butch arrived with Charlotte's support, the high-level professionals in the Demon Castle, who were originally careless, suddenly found that there were many strange-shaped war insects in the city defense to fill the defense, and there were very large fourth-order city guard giant insects with a huge size, but the number was only twenty-five.

At the same time, there are also phantom wing butterflies, war bee insects, mantis knife soldier insects, etc., but although their number is large, the rank is only an average of three orders, and the number of special insects like the city guard giant insect is extremely limited.

"After all, you are still just a legendary wizard, if you don't have my cooperation, it's just that you can't perfectly control these twenty-five fourth-order city guard giant insects, let them die for you, at present, this level is already the highest combat power limit you can control, I have also read the information, if you don't have other measures, the day the effect of the 'Throne of Radiance' ends, it will be the day your city is destroyed." "When Butch changed from a worm body to a human wizard form, she was actually a little beauty with milky white skin and an oval glass mirror, and at this moment she told Zhu Peng about the command techniques of various war insects, as well as various tips for cooperating with other troops.

"The monster frenzy is still about two days away from here, there will be no confrontation, there will be no temptation, once they arrive, they will pounce on them with the most ferocious attitude, Butch, I hope you can stay and help me command the Zerg, it's only two days, no matter how much I learn, I can't do it like a supporter, not to mention I have other work to do." โ€

"I'd love to help you too, but you should at least let me know what your hole cards are...... With the current strength on paper, even if I stay, I will only be sent to death, and among your subordinates, except for your descendants, I can see that the fighting spirit of the others is very low, and I can hardly see any hope of holding on in this situation. In front of Kogas, Butch is a little fan girl, but in front of Zhu Peng, this glasses lady wizard talks eloquently, showing extremely high intelligence and independence.

"I'm just a subordinate of Lord Charlotte, and my mission this time is only to send the Slave Soul Ring, even Lord Charlotte can't force me to die. โ€

"I can't talk about forcing you to die, have you ever seen someone push someone to die and put yourself in it? Of course I'm quite sure...... In this way, when the demon tide rushes to the city, my hole cards will be activated at the first time, if you think I can't resist, you can naturally leave directly, with us in front of you, with your current level, it is not difficult to retreat safely. Zhu Peng thought for a moment and said to Butch.

The witch in front of her is far less difficult to deal with when she is in the state of a brain worm, and Butch is a wizard with a clear mind and is extremely life-saving, although she does like Corgas very much, but she still puts her own safety first, and is worthy of being an old monster who has been immortal for many years, and can quickly adapt and mix well after entering the wizarding world from the origin world.

........................

Under the appeasement, because the monster frenzy is rapidly approaching, and the intuitive feeling of the sorcerer Butch is not only her, at this moment, people with enough strength and sharp hearts in the demon castle can feel the surging oppressive force of a black cloud pressing down on the city.

Just as animals can sense the arrival of an earthquake faster than humans, when a living form evolves to a higher level through cultivation, many of its mental intuition, which had been suppressed by its own main consciousness, will become clear and sharp again.

Zhu Peng's spiritual cultivation is not inferior to Buqi, and he is also a Danshi, his mental intuition is particularly keen, in the frenzy that rushes straight from the avalanche in the distance, Zhu Peng can vaguely feel several of them are extremely vicious and tyrannical dark will, that is not the momentum that ordinary monsters may urge, either elite-level monsters that have mutated to the extreme, or simply dark gold bosses that do not appear easily, they may feel the guidance of the will of the demon dragon, and follow and rush over to join in the fun.

Inside the fort, you can clearly feel that the warriors in the fort are divided into two camps:

The carelessness and slackness of high-level professionals, although not all of them are like this, but at least more than half of them are so, and those professionals who originally had some fighting spirit can't raise their motivation, and they look at the soldiers of the Chinese Warriors Association with a playful look, like people who are about to die.

In contrast, the soldiers of the Chinese Warriors Association are more engaged in training, testing martial arts, and wiping and fine-tuning the weapons and equipment in their hands. They trust their leader and are willing to risk their lives for it.

Zhu Peng cast a small spell to reduce his sense of existence, so that he walked in the crowd, but was not noticed by others, walking in the battle castle, he could see that many sect disciples walked in the martial arts style of himself or Li Jingxuan, especially the warriors who used broadswords or decapitating heavy swords, and even some people used two-handed heavy swords.

"What's the matter, the war is about to start, you should be very busy at this time, how can you have the mind to wander around the castle?" Coming to the residence of the two elders, Xu Baishan and Chahuang Keman, who were taking care of the treasure, were obviously very sensitive, they sensed the wrong fluctuations, Chahuang Keman walked out of the room with his big axe and thunder biting blade, but what he saw was Zhu Peng looking down from the window.

"Everything that should be laid out has been laid out, all my cards are already in place on the table, and they have even been double-checked, and I can't do better with the time I put in, so I came and took a look...... Look at the brothers who put their lives in my hands. At this time, there was a feeling that his chest was being pressed, and his five fingers felt swelled, just like when he was about to be tested by his master for martial arts when he was a child.

โ€œ...... You actually feel nervous and stressed, when we old guys talk about it in private, we always think that you people from the Pure Yang Sect will not have negative emotions after the Pure Yang Immortal Heart is attained. Chahuang Keman walked to Zhu Peng's side, and he said as if he was joking.

"Fighting in battle, fighting alone, only makes me feel happy, I feel the reality of my own life, and I feel the beauty of grasping every moment, but the people below who believe in me, sometimes, I don't know where I will take them, even if I succeed in the end, I don't know how many people will be buried here. โ€

"..............." heard this, and Emperor Cha was silent for a long time.

Then he reached out and patted the shoulder of the man next to him, and sighed: "There are not so many right and wrong, after making a choice, try to do what we think is right, it is enough." Do your best, and then listen to the destiny of heaven. โ€

Regardless of anticipation, fear, nervousness, excitement, any emotion, it converges in the Great Plains of Despair, and finally forms a devastating demonic frenzy like a dark natural disaster and rushes down the narrow road.

The offensive and defensive battle of life and death, honor, trust and responsibility is in full swing at this moment.
