Chapter Twenty-Six: The Evil Spirit Faces the Stronger Evil Spirit......
Seeing the evil spirits slowly approaching, the king and the others turned pale and their legs trembled, and many of them even sat on the ground unsteadily.
However, something unthinkable happened, and after these evil spirits got close to a certain extent, they stopped one after another. They bared their teeth and claws, silently threatening, but they did not take a single step, like a beast that had encountered a monster more powerful than themselves, and even though they were very angry, they did not dare to attack.
Seeing this scene, the king and others, who were already devastated, suddenly "came to life" again.
"Oh my God!"
"What's going on?"
"Will we survive?"
In the midst of the noise, the king, whose face had regained its blood, also exhaled deeply and let go of his grip on the dagger.
"The last words of the ancestors are true! The evil spirits will retreat from the more powerful ones. He managed to squeeze out a smile, then frowned again, "But...... How long can this last?"
Thinking of this, he asked the guard uneasily, "What time is it?"
The guard was stunned for a moment and replied, "It should be...... It's past eleven o'clock in the night, and it's close to twelve o'clock. ”
The king nodded, deep in thought.
It's the end of September, and it's about five hours before dawn, as long as you get through this time, after dawn, those evil spirits of unknown origin will definitely recede, no matter what story it is, the evil spirits are afraid of the sun, and I have never heard of evil spirits moving outdoors in the daytime.
"Don't even speak!" he commanded, "Be on guard and wait for dawn." When the day comes, the evil spirits will be gone. ”
Of course, everyone also understood this truth, and nodded their heads one after another, and many people sat down easily, anyway, those evil spirits didn't dare to attack, in this case, why not have a good rest?
Moreover, when I am old in the future, I can also brag to my children and grandchildren: "Evil spirits are terrifying, right? Back then, grandpa, I was full of evil spirits in front of me, and my life was in danger, but I could still sleep swaggeringly, this is the demeanor of a strong man, and I am calm and calm at all times......
Near the Great Bell Tower, silence has been restored for the time being.
After a while, for some unknown reason, the evil spirits surrounding the bell tower suddenly became a little disturbing, and even showed the intention of breaking through the obstacles and rushing to the front.
This made the hearts of the king and others hang in the air again after a long time, of course they are no match for the evil spirits, and the only reliance is nothing more than the fear of the evil spirits of the more ferocious evil spirits. But if these evil spirits don't buy the account of the evil spirit in the bell tower, they really have no choice but to wait for death.
After a while, the evil spirits were in a more agitated uproar, and more than one of the evil spirits tentatively took a step or two forward, and although they immediately retreated, the signal was already very obvious.
Just as the king and the others were becoming more and more alarmed, a roar suddenly sounded in the distance.
Everyone followed the sound and saw a golden light rising into the sky. Around the golden light, countless points of light slowly scattered, as if it was raining.
Although it was far away, everyone could clearly feel the extreme anger and fury in the golden light, which was simply chilling. If only it were close at hand...... I'm afraid that someone will be directly scared to death!
With the golden light, the evil spirits surrounding the bell tower suddenly stopped, as if frozen, and the king and the others looked at each other, not understanding what was going on.
After a while, one of these evil spirits suddenly moved. It threw its head up to the sky, made a roaring motion, and then without hesitation rushed to the side of the bell tower and grabbed a maid.
The palace maid shouted in panic, and the guards next to her drew their swords and slashed at them, but they were useless.
I didn't see what kind of attack the evil spirit used, it grabbed the palace maid's arm like this, but in just a second or two, the palace maid fell down, and her body quickly became dry and turned into a dry corpse.
Such a scene, in this horrible night, has happened many times.
However, this time is different!
When the maid was killed, a roar came from inside the bell tower.
The voice was low and hoarse, but it was not very old, it should be a man in his thirties. I don't know if it was because he was provoked by the weak, he roared angrily, and everyone could hear it clearly, and the roar was speeding down from the top of the bell tower, towards the ground floor.
All those who were not far enough away from the gate of the bell tower subconsciously hid to the side, wanting to get as far away from the gate as possible.
In just a moment, the roar was already at the bottom of the building. Although he did not rush out of the door, the evil spirit before hurried back as if it had encountered a wild beast of natural predators, running faster than a rabbit.
However, it was late.
A gray-black light, which could be seen clearly in the night, shot out from the door of the bell tower, hitting it in the back of the heart. Then the light turned into a chain, and it wrapped around it, dragging it and backing it little by little.
The demons danced in terror, but to no avail. Other demons came to help, but their combined strength could not stand against the chain. On the contrary, when more than one evil spirit touched the chains, its whole body immediately stiffened, as if it had been turned into a wooden clay sculpture, and it could not move.
After a while, the daring demon was finally dragged into the bell tower. Even those who were dragged in, there were more than a dozen who never let go, and those who were stiff and glued to the chains.
Immediately afterward, the sound of biting and chewing came from inside the bell tower.
What does that sound mean? Everybody can understand it.
Their faces became even paler, and more than one began to wonder if the choice to run here was the right one?
Those evil spirits around are indeed very dangerous, but this one inside the bell tower is even more terrifying!
Everyone has heard a lot about evil spirits. But who has ever heard of an evil spirit that eats evil spirits?
...... And eat so badly!
More than one had trembling legs and collapsed on the ground. There was also more than one person muttering things like "Mommy" and "I'm going home......
That's when hope came!
In the distance, the sound of battle was heard, crackling and rumbling.
Everyone knows that the evil spirits that are attacking are not only around, but there are also many wandering in the palace, looking for prey. The sound of the battle was probably something they were fighting.
It's just that...... What is it that can fight this untouchable evil spirit, and what is it that makes such a loud noise when fighting?
But whatever it is, it's hope!
Iroh and Harley, who are in a bitter battle, never dreamed that they had become the "hope" of the king and the others, who were supposed to send "despair" to each other.
