Chapter 19: The Angel and the Demon King (Part I)
Hurried footsteps rang out in the streets of Quanshui, and Diderot led his guards into the noisy streets, and the crowd quieted down and evacuated into the distance, leaving the battlefield to the knights.
With just one glance, Diderot felt his scalp tingle, what kind of monsters were in front of him?
"It's a demon from the Endless Abyss. One of the oldest Light Priests said, as a high-ranking priest, he was all too familiar with the dark aura of demons.
"Guards, Arrays, Arcanists, Cast Accelerations and Slowness Fields, Clergy, Blessings. Diderot said in a deep voice, even if the opponent was a monster that did not belong to the world, as an imperial soldier, he still maintained enough calm, and quickly gave orders in the most concise language.
The four bone demons brandished their weapons and stopped in the street, fearlessly crashing into the guards who numbered more than ten times more than them, and the guards who lacked experience in fighting demons were in a hurry for a while.
The body of the bone demon is extremely hard, comparable to steel, even the guards who have blessed the blessing technique are quite tricky to deal with, and the slow force field of the arcanist is directly ignored by the bone demons.
Four pairs of huge bony wings slammed open, lifting the guards who rushed up one by one, and fell out in embarrassment.
"If only there was a magician at this time. Diderot helplessly glanced at the two sweaty arcanists behind him, the arcanist's control ability is undoubtedly of great effect on the battlefield, but correspondingly, the destructive power is far less powerful than the elemental mage of the legal profession, and the one he encountered in front of him is the bone demon who does not eat control magic.
Just as Diderot was thinking about how to gnaw on the four hard bones, a whirlwind of flames appeared, outflanking all four bone demons, and the bone demons were blown to the ground by the wind, and the flames climbed up the bone demon's wings, fusing the joints connected to the bones and their backs, and the bone wings fell from them.
Mordred jumped onto the back of one of the bone demons, and the crimson flame striker spewed out a dense stream of fire that slammed into the back of the bone demon's head. The Bone Demon's head twisted and deformed under the scorching flames, and finally exploded into countless debris. I saw that the guards were in high spirits.
"I'll leave the remaining three Bone Demons to me. Mordred's voice rang out, "You guys try to get to that church in the shortest possible time and destroy the circle that summons demons, that's what that guy said." ”
"That guy?" Diderot was stunned for a moment, he still trusted Mordred very much, so he shouted without hesitation: "The whole army is forward, the goal is the church, and drive these disgusting fellows back to their hometown." ”
A grim laugh rang from high in the sky, and Samael opened his arms and chanted the incantation like a bard singing aloud, and large pieces of purple words with an eerie glow emerged from nothingness, and then dissolved into nothingness again.
An invisible hand lifted the dark curtain and pulled the sky from the realm of day into the theater of night, the deep black dyeed the sky like ink that could not be dissolved, and the blue canvas was unrecognizable, and there was no light in the sky above Quanshui Town, and the sunlight was blocked in another world, leaving the town with only a haze of despair.
Dark magic --- canopy of despair.
Within the canopy of despair, all living beings will be dominated by fear, and the weak-willed will even face mental breakdown, which is one of the favorite magic of high-level demons.
"Welcome to my stage and enjoy this wonderful play, played by me, the demon king Samael from the second layer of the Endless Abyss, and this beautiful young lady who inherits the glory of heaven, as for the name, it is called "Angel with Broken Wings", how about it?" The avatar of the Demon King said cheerfully, while looking down with a malicious gaze, as expected, the spring water under the darkness was silent, and the brains of the townspeople were completely dominated by fear, and the eyes of those staring at the sky were full of horror, and some of the townspeople had already hugged their heads and curled up in the corner of the wall shivering.
The knights who charged towards the church also involuntarily stopped the moment the black curtain appeared, and their fighting spirit was greatly reduced. The curse of fear from the canopy of despair affected them as well, and even Diderot's eyes showed hesitation and struggle.
Samael was pleased with the effect of the magic, and the foolish and incompetent mortals did exactly what he thought, unable to avoid the mental interference of the Dome of Despair, and the feeling of playing with the psychology of others in the applause made the Demon King extremely intoxicated.
What's more, as time passes, the spirits of those within the magical range become more and more fragile, so that this group of weak-willed creatures is unlikely to pose any threat.
"Attack the city for the bottom, attack the heart for the top. Samael triumphantly recounted his motto and glanced at Diana, who was not far away, and of course he could not forget this real opponent. As a god, Diana was naturally not affected by this spell.
The Maiden Goddess was wrapped in a golden flame, the brilliant flame of light turned into her armor and long sword, her beautiful face was cold and majestic, her blonde hair fluttering, and her skirt fluttered, as dazzling as the Valkyrie Valkyrie in ancient mythology.
The two wings of light had stretched out to six meters away, and each flap would shake off countless golden points of light, like stars suspended in the air, and these stars wandered around the girl, automatically forming a divine guardian --- high divine arts.
Diana, who was under divine protection and was guarded by the stars, raised the giant sword formed by the golden flames and became the focus of everyone's vision in Quanshui Town.
The next moment, the girl holding the sword of flame resolutely turned into a streamer, and rushed towards the demon king standing in the center of the black sky without hesitation, and the light that bloomed in an instant actually lit up the entire sky.
Holy Slash.
This is the move in the Templar Sword Technique that Victor tried to use in the forest, when facing a group of powerful enemies, and now it is released by Diana in the form of an angel, and the power has increased several times, and the charging phase has been completely skipped.
In the silent spring town, a cry of excitement suddenly sounded, and then, more townspeople woke up from their fear, and looked at the sky, the vaguely familiar, brilliant back, erupted in violent cheers, mixed with a little excited crying.
In the memories of the townspeople of Izumi, the gentle and kind Empress has returned, and she bravely stood up to defend them and launched an attack on the evil demon king.
In the sky without sunlight, the girl's radiant figure replaced the sunlight and became the new sun.
"What are you still doing in a daze, are you disgraced Your Highness?" Diderot was the first to come to his senses, and lost no time in encouraging the guards, and the morale of the knights who had reacted rose again, and they rushed in the direction of the church.
"It's a disappointment. Samael waved his hand in annoyance.
However, he had no intention of stopping there, because he believed that his loyal subordinates would be able to hold back the humans until the moment he achieved final victory.
The fire demon opened his eyes, two slender tongues of fire blew out of his nostrils, and the soles of his feet burned with raging flames, and with each step forward, a small pit burned in the ground, and his tall body seemed like a moving mass of solidified magma, blocking the way of the knights' charge.
The knights fearlessly rushed towards the fire demon, slashing their swords and stabbing to beckon, and countless sparks splashed on the fire demon's body in an instant, but it didn't seem to have any effect, but the knights' blades were almost melted by the heat.
The fire demon roared, and a whip burning with dark red flames was thrown out violently, and the fire whip sliced through the air with a whirl, bringing up a string of flames, and the opponent it encountered was mercilessly whipped out.
Without warning, a large cloud of pale mist emerged from the ground, enveloping several of the knights who could not dodge, and when the fog cleared, the knights lay on the ground twitching.
The Evil Wizard's natural magic ---- the Suffocating Mist.
The evil spirit wizard floated behind the fire demon at this time, wielding a bone staff, and used the cover of the fire demon to cast spells unscrupulously, and then the suffocating mist, the withering spell, the touch of the dead, the light of calamity, the chaotic barrier and other magic fell on the street, and with the fire demon's aggressive attack, it was difficult for hundreds of knights to move an inch for a while
Diderot hurriedly instructed the Arcanist to bless his soldiers with various buffs, and at the same time, the two Light Priests also teamed up to release a divine magic ---- Divine Rain.
The golden magic array appeared above the head of the evil spirit wizard, the light was shining, and countless golden light rained down like drops, the divine rain was originally used for healing, but for the evil spirit wizard, it was no different from poison.
The timing of the release of this spell is also very well grasped. At this time, the evil spirit wizard had just finished casting several spells, and before he could catch his breath, the divine rain was poured down on his head and face, and he didn't have time to dodge.
Seeing that the evil spirit wizard was about to be killed by this magic spell, at this time, something unexpected happened, the fire demon who was fighting happily with the knights actually did not hesitate to leave the battle, took the initiative to retreat to the range of the magic cast, and stopped in front of the demon wizard, opened his arms, and used his body to block the divine rain.
For the Flame Demon, it was not easy to bear the divine magic performed by the two Light Priests together, and the brilliance of the divine magic instantly extinguished most of the flames on the Flame Demon's body.
Sure enough, it's not easy to deal with. Diderot sighed, the tacit cooperation between the two demons was beyond his imagination, and although he succeeded in severely inflicting a heavy blow on the fire demon, it did not achieve the most ideal effect.
If this continues, he may be dragged into a protracted war, and the moment will not be good, Diderot glanced at the sky with a worried face.
Your Highness, can you hold on?
