Section 3 Demons

The seven swords on Ain's body glowed again, and he was about to summon the sword for the third time. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

But that's when the unexpected happened.

The mutation came from the cracked ground, and a black ominous aura was derived from the cracks, and Ain looked at the black substance pouring out from under the surface like fog and water, and felt that countless pairs of eyes seemed to be staring at him under the ground, making his scalp tingle and creepy.

"Wouldn't it be, at a time like this?!" Ain was stunned, he knew exactly what was about to break through the ground, maybe it was the shockwave of the Dragon Shaking Sword that caught their attention, causing them to spot the smell of food on the surface.

"Boom!" "Boom!" It was as if a heavy hammer was striking the ground in the ground, and the cracked earth began to pile up, higher and higher, gradually piling up the height of a small hill. The surrounding barbarians stopped attacking, and they hurriedly regrouped their formations with their broadswords, facing the small hill in front of them, making a posture of preparation for battle. Now, they don't take Ain seriously at all, because Ain is nothing compared to what is coming. Ain retracted his sword from its scabbard and began chanting the longest incantation to date.

Black smoky water gushed out from the cracks in the ground, spreading silently and slowly, and along the way, flowers and plants withered, springs dried up, and trees dried up. It was a curse so strong that if a human touched it, it would be burned to death.

At last the hill reached its highest point, and could no longer withstand the impact from below the ground, and it cracked like an explosion, and from the mouth of the hole, countless creatures darker than night poured out. Like a phantom, it rushed into a crowded place, and wherever it passed, severed limbs and stumps flew wildly. All of a sudden, it seemed that blood was raining everywhere in the barbarian army.

Demon Skeleton, the Black Dragon King's minions, the Lords of the Night. The breath they exhale is poisonous gas, the earth they touch is scorched earth, the whole body is full of cursed breath, and existence itself is a cancer. Such things are now flying in droves among the troops of the barbarian army. Although they have different forms, the demon remains that have escaped now are the lowest species of demon remains, they do not think, they have no intelligence, and they instinctively prey, like crazy beasts. Despite having a human-like body, it crawls quickly on the ground with twisted limbs. Because he lives in a dark environment, his eyes are no longer able to see, and he relies on his sense of smell to catch the location of the blood and carry out bloody slaughter.

At this moment, a demon skeleton who was tearing at the corpse sniffed Ain, who was alone outside the crowd, and turned his head sharply, still holding a severed arm in his mouth, when he suddenly let out a strange hiss, threw down the food he was eating, and his limbs were like spider's feet, and rushed towards him who was chanting incantations. Although Ain noticed the demonic remains, he saw that the spell was still 3 verses away, and if he stopped at this point, he might not have a chance to chant it a second time, so he closed his eyes and decided to gamble with time. But the speed of the demon was far beyond the reach of humans, and he jumped 20 meters away from Ain, shortening the distance between them in one breath. The monster opened its bloody jaw, and Ain was close enough to hear his breathing, but there was still a section of the spell left......

"Hah!"

Blood gushed out, Ain opened his eyes, a silver sword hung in the air, the person holding it was wearing a full body of silver armor, with a resolute face, although the years had carved a few scars on his face, but also left a deep impression in his eyes.

"Chief!"

The man who was called the leader was named Lecrest, and he was the leader of the whole army, the king of the whole army.

The demon skeleton was cut in half in midair, black blood like lava, stained with vegetation, leaving only a large black patch of the earth.

"Migami!"

At the same time, Ain finished the long chanting of the incantation. A holy sword glowing with golden light appeared in Ain's hand, and when he swung it, the monsters he touched were scattered like smoke. It is a sword of purification for curses. The sword that Ain summoned was used for a long time in proportion to the length of the incantation he chanted, and in order to fight for a long time, he chanted nearly 30 stanzas in one breath, which was long enough for a fire mage to chant such advanced magic as "Dragon's Breath".

"What about the goddess?"

"I don't know, I'm dancing. ”

"Huh?"

"There's no need to rely on her, human beings can solve their own problems. ”

"Ain, this isn't just a human problem. Lecrest waved his long sword and shook off the black blood from the sword, leaving a visible rust stain behind.

"Looks like you're going to change your sword again, Your Majesty. The banter sounded, and the two looked sideways and found the figure of a veteran.

"Too slow, Wood! What about the troops?" Lecrest frowned, looking at the staccato crowd behind him.

"It's not because you're walking too fast, my lord. ”

"Even you're keeping up, why are those boys so powerless?"

"Do you mean I'm old?"

At this time, the barbarian army had been annihilated by the monster army, and they sensed the presence of Ain and his party, swallowed their tongues that reached the ground, and began to move their limbs to crawl towards this side.

"In any case, first regroup while retreating, and then rush out when the main army has picked up. ”

"Yes!"

Ain and Wood responded in unison and began to take a defensive stance, and they defended and retreated together with the vanguard who followed, during which many people unfortunately drenched a large amount of blood on the skeletons when they killed them, and turned into black charred corpses with screams.

"Watch out for their blood, shield soldiers!

Under Lecrest's orders, Wang ****'s retreat was chaotic and orderly, and did not cause much damage.

Soon, the remaining demon remains had poured out in the direction of Lecrest, and a large number of demon armies were pouring in like a dark tide, making all the living people present tremble.

"It's hell......"

I don't know which soldier said this, threw down the weapon in his hand and began to flee for his life. Several soldiers saw it and fled. Lecrest watched them go, a flash of sympathy or resentment in his eyes.

"Hold your ground! Don't panic! The formation spreads out and is fanned out. ”

Seeing that the demon army was about to surround the troops, Lecrest gave a decisive order. But in the face of such a crowd offensive, the fan wing part of the formation will only become thinner and thinner, and I believe it will not last long. The troops who arrived later were slowly splicing together, but the demon army was also reducing the strength of the two wings, and many soldiers were swept away by a black storm before they could see the appearance of their opponents, and after a few seconds, only a pile of charred flesh remained. The battlefield was filled with the stench of blood and rotting flesh, and the screams and screams in my ears were incessant, mixed with the screams of incoming monsters. As the escaped soldiers said, this place has become a living hell.

The voices of the soldiers in the rear were getting farther and farther away, and Ain looked back to find that the formation had been cut off halfway, and the forward positions where Ain, Lecrest and Wood were located had been surrounded by the Demon Legion.

"It's not good, Your Majesty, if it continues like this, the whole army will be destroyed. ”

"Wood! there is time to say such frustrating words, you might as well think about how to get out!"

"Ain ......"

"Ain is right! Even though we're surrounded, it's the same with the monsters in the middle. The troops behind surround the middle of the enemy army in a crescent formation, and we must destroy them first and let the troops converge. ”

"Yes!" Wood answered, running to the rear.

"Ain, hold your place. ”

"Yes......" At this time, the light from the sword in Ain's hand dimmed a little.

"How long will your sword last?"

"Up to 2 minutes. ”

"What about the time to continue the chant?" (Note 1)

"At least 1 minute. ”

"Oh, it's too troublesome, don't you have the skills to clear these beasts at once?"

"Yes, but the chanting is too long, and it's easy to be interrupted in battle. ”

Swinging his sword to cut down a flying demon skeleton and covering his face with a large square shield, Lecrest smiled heroically, "It's okay! I'll be your guard, you can concentrate on chanting!"

With that, Lecrest used his lean body to block Ain's face.

"Chief......" Ain nodded gratefully, closed his eyes, and began to chant the ancient incantation. The seven swords on his body once again shone with dazzling brilliance, and a group of fighting demon skeletons saw it, and immediately gave up the prey in front of them, and frantically attacked Ain's location.

"Hehe, that's fine, I'll pick the province one by one, let the horses come!"

Note 1: Continuation Chanting: Refers to chanting to prolong the duration of use before the continuous magic disappears, and the chanting time will be less than the spell itself.
