Chapter 248: Demigod Red Knight (2-in-1)
The demonic general's name is Leotavius, and he was once a notorious slave trader on the eastern frontier of the Steginian Empire.
Throughout the border region, almost all imperial officials and noble lords colluded with him.
He was a local man, and people only knew Leotavis, but not the emperor.
When the dense army of demons, crawling out of the border savannah, appeared in front of him, he thought it was the punishment of the gods for doing so much evil to him.
But it soon became clear to him that this was not a punishment, but a gift!
He took refuge in the demons, and was transformed by the leader of the demon army, the High Lord Yetafy, a terrifying demon with a beard like an octopus's tentacles and leaving water stains with every step, into the demon of the unification army, Serida!
Sereda is a high-ranking demon known for her intelligence, often serving as the commander of various demon legions.
Their melee abilities are mediocre, but they are extremely capable of spellcasting, and one of the things that makes them most popular with the Demon Lords is that they are loyal!
This is also because their status in the demon legion is often much higher than that of the Nasrezmu, who also belong to the high-intelligence demons.
When Leotavius underwent a painful ritual of transformation, he was pleasantly surprised to discover that he was a natural demon at all!
The so-called "loss of self-consciousness" and degeneration to a "chaotic puppet" recorded in the classics did not show the slightest expression in him.
It's still what it is!
And getting rid of the frail body that used to grow older with the passage of time, it can feel the terrifying magic in its own body like a tsunami.
It pledged its allegiance to Yetafe and swore that it would lead an army of demons to conquer Lotherne, the capital of the Elves of Ain El.
The process had gone smoothly, and everything was going according to Leotavis' plan, until the terrifying knight who made his scalp tingle came out of the city and the situation took a turn for the worse.
"Whatever the hell it is, but now, it's slaughtering my army, and it's going to thwart my oath of allegiance to Lord Yetafe!"
"Talos, kill it!"
The word "it" was used because Leotavius knew very well that the knight was anything but human.
The only thing that can make the unified demon Sereda feel the fear of encountering a natural enemy can only be the more evil demon of Saireda, either the direct heir of the Maharaja, or the family members of the demon gods who have lived in seclusion and rarely appeared for countless years in the bottom abyss.
Leotavis looked at a high-ranking demon with red skin, granite-like muscles, and a greatsword on his shoulder.
Although it has just been transformed into Serida, it has the strength of the middle sequence, but not long after becoming a demon, it cannot control this power well at all, which also makes its strength very weak.
Therefore, the demon lord Yetafi sent a mid-sequence peak bloodline sword demon to serve it.
This is a kind of demon that is mostly born in the human world, but even among the many powerful and high-level demons in the abyss, it can firmly rank in the forefront in terms of combat power.
The Bloodspawn Sword Demon glanced at Leotavius with contempt and walked towards the battlefield with his greatsword.
Blood-like flames erupted on the blade, and a sword slash sliced in half, slicing in half all the demons that stood in its way from its feet to Leon.
Blood flowed out of the demon's corpse, bit by bit, and gathered to form the sword body of the giant sword in the hands of the Blood Sword Demon.
Immediately, he slashed down at Li Ang.
But such an attack is too slow for Leon.
The black light flashed, and Leon appeared directly behind the Bloodborn Sword Demon, and Avalon slashed at its neck with precision, and suddenly let out a humming sound of gold and iron.
Li Ang said thoughtfully: "It turned out to be a bloodline sword demon!"
He had personally hunted a blood-descended sword demon and was very familiar with its characteristics, and the body of this demon was actually equivalent to the sword it held in its hand.
So, there's nothing important about it at all.
The last time he was able to kill the Bloodline Sword Demon, it was because of the incomparable sharpness of the Sword of Victory, coupled with the fact that the Bloodline Sword Demon lived in the magic sword, the material was quite ordinary.
But this time it's probably not that simple.
Even the Demon Sword Avalon couldn't cut through its defenses, and even if it couldn't keep up with its own speed at all, it would be able to greatly restrain itself from slaughtering the rest of the demons.
The Bloodborn Sword Demon asked in demonic language: "Take off your disguise, the demonic smell on your body is stronger than mine, who are you and what are your intentions?"
Li Ang turned a deaf ear to this, and only managed a set of iron swordsmanship, from head to toe, knocking the blood-descended sword demon clangling.
The Bloodline Sword Demon said angrily, "This is the legion of the Great Lord Yetafi, and your offensive actions will definitely anger the Great Lord." β
Although it is strong, in terms of speed, it is completely suppressed by Leon.
After breaking through to the second order of the middle sequence, Leon was almost completely able to exert most of the power of the Instant Hell Technique, making his figure even more erratic than when Nasrezm used spatial shuttle.
Finally, the sound of striking iron stopped.
Li Ang easily cut off the head of a siege demon, stood on its back, and smiled at the blood-descended sword demon: "Your body is indeed very strong, but do you know that there is a common sense, called thermal expansion and cold contraction?"
The Bloodspawn Sword Demon shook his head blankly.
Then, I saw dense cracks, which appeared on its body surface.
Bang β
...
Leon picked up the bone wand in Leotavis' hand with a sword, and on the jaw of the magic sword Avalon, two points of ghostly fire lit up in his empty eyes.
It can't wait to taste the meal in front of it.
"Don't, don't kill me!"
"I am the confidant of the Great Lord of Yetafe who has personally transformed, the Great Lord values me very much, if you kill me, you will surely usher in his thunderous wrath!"
"Conversion"
Leon tugged down on his armor, revealing his somewhat pale jaw.
The corners of his mouth hooked into a smile, and he said softly: "In other words, you are a traitor"
He should have expected it!
Even if you know that you will lose yourself if you become a demon, there is no shortage of soft-boned people in this world.
But it is not so easy to be a human adulterer, some people will be transformed into dwarf demons who can never eat because of their insatiable desires, and some people will be transformed into white-horned demons who only know the process of repeating mating and reproduction for the rest of their lives until they die.
And they, without exception, are all monsters with no intelligence at all, and a level of inferiority that is better than that of the Sinking Demon.
Besides, the demons are not monolithic, the law of the jungle is staged every day, and every demon soldier may become "military food" in the next moment.
Without the protection of the High Demon, the Newborn Demon, a demon standing at the bottom of the food chain, would have no chance of surviving.
"What kind of rape"
Leotavius was conspicuously unable to comprehend the words uttered by Leon in a literal style.
Leon smiled and shook his head: "It's nothing, it's just that I feel that you are really a talent, and I really have no intention of offending the lord Yetafi in your mouth, but I feel that in his heart, I am afraid that you do not have the status you said at allβespecially after you buried a legion under his command here." β
"No, I have!"
Leotavius let out a high-pitched cry: "The title of lord of Yetafe"
"Sure enough, the dog can't change its, and even if it is transformed into a Cereda demon known for his loyalty, he is still lying on his stomach, like a vertebrate crawler. β
"For the sake of the good news you brought, Yetafi is not a lord rank at all, and I will not swallow your soul. β
Click-
The hand rises, and the sword falls.
The skull rolled to the ground, bleeding dark green, foul-smelling blood.
Leotavis' soul flew out of its body, and he looked at Leon tremblingly: "You have to fulfill your promise and let me go." β
"I never lie. β
Leon smiled and bowed, and then, the magic sword slashed into the void, engulfing Leotavis' soul.
He could feel that the magic sword was very full this time, and the human soul was more vicious than the demon, even the magic sword that was as insatiable as the dwarf demon, he still felt full after swallowing it.
Leon patted Avalon, after eating enough this time, this magic sword can also be settled for a while, although it can't be said to serve himself wholeheartedly, but it won't be like before, every time he uses it, he has to sacrifice his own blood.
...
The demon army was crushed by Leon, and the elven army in the city pursued the fleeing demons with hatred and anger.
Riding unicorns, white knights wearing winged helmets burst out of the gates, followed by rangers with longbows in their hands, and elven mages desperately trying to squeeze their magic power and unleash their magic.
The long life of these elves has given them great combat skills and will, but this cannot hide the gloomy prospects of this war, even if they win a momentary victory.
Leon stood in the middle of the corpse-strewn battlefield, his armor not stained with any blood, and even after a series of bloody battles, he still maintained his dignity.
In the sky, a hole was torn open.
A ball of red flame roared, and under the frightened gaze of the elves, it smashed precisely at Leon.
Leon had no intention of dodging, he had already sensed that the contract he had made with Lady Nasha had ended, and that this was the reward promised to him by Lady Nasha, the god of fire and knights, and that it was also his last inheritance.
Bang β
The flame divinity was like a meteorite, thrown into Leon's body.
And in his body, the magic power that had climbed to the peak due to devouring more than a dozen carefully selected mid-sequence demons was catalyzed by this wisp of divinity, and began to transform into the third order of the mid-sequence.
At the same time, the demon hunter's hand pierced open, and the flames rolled and flowed like gilding, forming large characters.
You've gained enough divine power to unlock a new interface, the Forge of Talents.
Talent Forge Introduction: Based on divinity, invest your excess talents and smelt them into brand new talents, the greater the investment, the stronger the new talents will be.
Is it important to have ten small talents with different emphasis, or is it important to have one big talent that is particularly prominent
There seems to be no doubt about that.
Moreover, Li Ang has long discovered that he has many talents that he once relied on, but now he seems to be a little weak.
However, the casting talent needs to consume divine power, which makes it impossible for him to waste a wisp of divinity to take a few specific chicken talents and experiment with the output of the talent furnace, whether it is worth it.
But hesitation is only a matter of moments.
Although he often advertises that he is a very stable person in his bones, in fact, as long as he is a person, he will definitely have "gambling nature" in his heart!
Leon chose direct stud.
His newfound talents, two wisps of flame divinity, a wisp of storm divinity, the flame of vengeance, Snow White's blessing, the Storm Lord's thunder, and talents such as the power of the Iron Ape Demon that he had long since exhausted, were all thrown into it.
The Talent Forge page was suddenly filled with black strange flames, as if there was a terrifying demon eye from the bottom abyss, staring at Li Ang through the flames.
After a long time, the elves who were watching not far away began to worry about whether Leon had been seriously injured in the previous series of battles.
Leon finally moved.
With his back to the corpse-strewn battlefield, he took his first steps towards the elves.
And when he lifted his foot, he left behind a cold, frost-filled footprint.
When his other foot was raised, it was charred black, as if it had been burned by the heat.
...
The Demon Hunter's Codex clearly appeared in large golden letters.
You've got a whole new talent.
Divine physique, Red Knight. [Rating: S]
You are the Red Knight that Lothern believes in, a demigod being who walks on land.
After the fall of Lady Natha, you were the totem revered by all of the Aynels.
You are like a raging wind and a thunderbolt, a blazing flame and an eternal glacier in the frozen tundra, and the gods will bow down to you when you ascend to the throne.
Comment: He was born out of Hell, but even the most vicious of demons tremble when they hear His name.
Leon was actually a little speechless about this talent, and it was okay for these Ain El to think that he was the so-called Red Knight, after all, he really borrowed this name.
But even the Demon Hunting Codex began to join in the fun, and it was a little ridiculous to make up an illusory identity for him.
He is just a visitor from another world, if it weren't for the coincidence, he wouldn't have come to this world in this life, the next life, and the next life, and he couldn't fight with the Red Knight.
Scati's voice sounded in Leon's head: "I don't know how you did it, but congratulations on becoming a demigod." β
"Demigods"
Leon was a little puzzled.
"I'm only in the third order of the sequence now, can I be regarded as a demigod?"
Scati replied, "Not all demigods are high sequences, but high sequences, definitely demigods. β
"What do you mean?"
"Isn't it obvious enough that I have expressed it, even if there is no divinity at all, when it breaks through to the high sequence, it will also give birth to the corresponding divinity according to the power it has mastered and become a demigod, so any high sequence is, to be exact, at least a demigod. β
"And in the middle sequence is the life of the demigods, although rare, but not impossible. β
"For example, Hercules, the god of the Greek gods, was born as a demigod, but it wasn't until he became Hercules that he really broke through to the high sequence. β
Hercules, also known as Hercules, is a well-known figure in the Greek gods.
Leon nodded: "I understand, but I still don't feel the benefits of being a demigod, it seems that nothing has changed, but it seems that everything has changed"
Scati said: "You need time to adapt, to experience, to be honest, the divinity you have accumulated is not enough for you to break through to the demigod level, I don't know how you did it, but maybe doing so will bring some sequelae, for example, you don't have some abilities that the rest of the demigods should master." β
