Dancing with Demons –

If there was one word to describe Amy's situation, it would probably be like that.

The tentacles were far more numerous than he had expected, the suitcase in hand had long since been left behind by him in the brawl, and the young Glory One flew around the shattered earth almost without a single bite, fleeing without embarrassment as it was pursued by the terrible monsters that lurked deep underground.

Three.

He had ascertained the total number of tentacles, and was gradually able to predict the frequency of its attacks, but even so, he was not so optimistic about the current situation.

Trouble guy.

The enemy was far more tricky than Amy had expected, not that the demons in the underground were beyond imagination, but because he lacked the means to kill them with one hit, there was no way to destroy them at the source - even if the huge size and extraordinary self-healing power were aside, it was inherently invincible with the home advantage that humans could not operate underground!

But even so, there are reasons why victory is necessary.

- If he can't kill it here, then his journey is almost over.

Even a battle-hardened warrior can't be sure that he will be on alert at all times, able to deal with any unexpected situation, and have absolute certainty that he will be able to get out of the big mouth of the underground monster.

Therefore, it must be found in its weakness, and it must be defeated.

Under the dense attack of the tentacles, the Glory One still has room to think about countermeasures, and the intuition of almost foreseeing the future and the combat skills that have been tempered for thousands of times make him show his ease at this moment to the fullest.

In stark contrast to this is Corbock.

The small, brown-haired boy was running in a rather disorganized manner, though there were no pursuers behind him.

He wanted to do something, to do what he could.

He knew Crassus's tentacles better than anyone present.

It's a troublesome existence that doesn't know that the ontology is absolutely impossible to crusade, even in the demon race that has a strange ecology and even can be called a strange one, its way of existence is also quite weird.

The reason why he had such a deep understanding of it was entirely due to his mentor at the Discipline.

The Mentor was once not a Mentor, but a Second Seal Sword Bearer who belonged to the Sweeper Brigade, a young and handsome man who should have a great future and a bright future, but ...... Everything was buried in the Grand Canyon of Crassus, and everything made Crassus Tentacles famous.

Until then, no one knew that the tens of millions of tentacles in the Grand Canyon of Crassus were not individual individuals, nor were they a cluster of demons, but ...... The branches of the High Demon Lords buried deep underground.

Six of the ten sword-wielders on the mission were killed on the spot in that brutal battle, and the remaining four escaped the canyon with the information, but two of them died of complications from stigmata overload before they could return to the Order's headquarters, leaving only his mentor and one who passed out in front of the Sweeper's brigade covered in blood.

- High amputation.

That's why a mentor is a mentor.

But any sacrifice is worthwhile, and the sacrifice of the Mentor and his companions has brought valuable information that makes Crassus's tentacles no longer mysterious.

Just three months later, the Crassus Grand Canyon strategy was completed.

"This is the most suitable place. ”

He paused, shook his head, let go of his untimely thoughts, and then exhaled a breath of cloudy air, his gaze resting on the cottage ahead.

It is a small three-story villa, covering an area of about six or seven hundred square meters, and the house is quite old under the erosion of the late night, but from below, you can see that the roof of the villa is quite wide and flat, and it is a relatively high ground that is most suitable for their activities.

And, most importantly...... The door is unlocked.

After making sure that the road to the rooftop was unimpeded, he stood on the rooftop and looked down on the entire battlefield.

In the faint glow of the lantern and the fire crystal, his gaze first stopped slightly on his savior, then looked away from the completely unnecessary gaze and turned his attention to the others.

There are three people who are still alive.

One of them was a young man as thin as a bamboo pole, he was now holding a sword in both hands, most of his body was leaning on the sword, gasping for breath, and it seemed that he would not be able to recover his strength for a while.

The other, on the other hand, was a tower-tall man, with lion-like blond hair slung over his shoulders, muscular and hairy, looking like a gorilla—the only one of the three surviving who was trying to help Judas.

The last person left was a woman, her skin was slightly dark, and her face could not be seen in the dim environment, but she could vaguely see a body that did not lose the muscles of a man - but unlike the tall and somewhat outrageous man not far away, she had no intention of helping the young man who came to the rescue, just looked around, not knowing what she was looking for.

Finally, the eyes are facing each other.

The woman grinned at him, as if she had noticed something interesting, revealing six snow-white teeth.

It seems that I thought of going with him.

Corbock roughly guessed what she was thinking, but didn't pay much attention to it, and his gaze just snapped away, and he shifted his gaze back to the young Glory.

"Judas—"

He said loudly: "Don't waste your energy on chopping, you can't kill it, it doesn't have a so-called vital point at all, it's just a tool to help the body to hunt." ”

Just as even if the enemy's long sword is cut off in battle, the direct damage that can be done to the person holding the sword is quite limited, if the most critical core is always hidden underground, even if all the tentacles on the ground are cut off, it is not a big deal for it, it is great to spend some energy to regenerate, or it will be able to have the ability to prey again in three or five days, and become the most terrifying predator in this place again.

"I see," Amy, who was well aware of the results of his slash, didn't doubt Corbock's words, he just raised an eyebrow and asked as he dodged the tentacles' increasingly fierce onslaught, "So...... What's the point of it? underground?"

He had a keen insight into the truth.

"That's right, underground. After being slightly surprised by the instincts of the teenager who had survived the battlefield of Hemtika, Kobbo explained, "This battle will never end unless the underground body is removed." ”

The main body of the subterranean ......

Amy couldn't help but groan, even if he wasn't in a weakened state, he couldn't handle this type of enemy, let alone now.

...... in a short period of time I'm afraid he can't think of a good way to do it.

But just because he can't think of it doesn't mean that others can't think of it, so he threw the conversation straight over, without any cover-up, and got straight to the point: "What are your plans here?"

"I need everyone's cooperation. Corbock looked around and raised his voice deliberately, "Judas, all you need to do is attract the attention of the tentacles and let the others complete the diversion - and those friends over there who don't know each other, please come to where I am standing, we must lure it out of the ground." ”

No reply was received, but the three surviving reservist sword-wielders followed his lead.

Judas dragged all the tentacles with the strength of one man, and the three of them reached the roof of the villa without any hindrance—and as soon as they met, the tall and mighty man like a brown bear patted him on the shoulder: "I said brother...... What are your plans? Can you tell us about them?"

"Actually, I don't have any plans," the short brown-haired boy spread his hands, "It's just a simple bait tactic, it depends on whether the other party bites the hook or not." ”

"You want to fish it out?" said the only woman in the trio as she nodded, "With the stupid nature of the demon, it does have a fairly high success rate. ”

"Hmm......," replied in a low voice, and Corbeck did not continue the conversation with them, "Judas, now please begin to collect the net and lead it to the rooftop." ”

"It's a bit difficult. Amy replied casually, and then got moving.

What he just said was actually just a joke, in the end, it was a brainless demon, its attack methods were very monotonous, and it was completely incomparable with a series of enemies such as Killer and Ignati, and in just a few minutes, he completely figured out the frequency of their attacks, and he could completely play with them in the palm of his hand.

But there is no need for this.

What he had to do was to show his talent and not arouse suspicion, and he was well versed in the truth of excess, so he decided to hide it at this moment, and what he could have done in only two or three minutes was dragged out by him for nearly ten minutes.

The villa is close at hand.

Corbock's plan was not difficult to guess, and the young Glory Man did not intend to continue to waste his physical strength, so the speed of his feet suddenly increased, and the whole person jumped out like a sharp arrow from the string, "Oooo", "Oooh", "Oooo", "Oooo", "Oo", "T

And then—

After a brief pause, the world began to shake.

The tentacle monster launched an attack on the corridor, its tentacles continued to extend, and the stairs fell downwards with a "bang", but in the blink of an eye, the hideous mouthparts pierced through the corridors on the first and second floors, and there were only a few meters left from Amy, so that he was ready, in case he was caught up, he would turn around and give it a hard blow, he didn't believe that this thing would not have any pain.

But, the worst probably didn't happen.

The end of the world is just a stone's throw away.

The tentacles froze in mid-air, unable to advance even half a minute.

- to the limit.

Amy was sure of this, and then walked the last flight of the stairs without hurry, and arrived at the predetermined battlefield.

Then, the fish bites!

After a long pause, the earth shook violently, and the foundation of the entire villa was smashed to pieces with a loud bang, and a round ball of flesh with countless pairs of human arms burst out of the ground, and naturally crushed the entire villa, which was already stormy.

"Boom!"

In an unexpected situation, in a cloud of smoke and dust, the battle between humans and demons broke out.
