Act 248 Darkness Descends X
The devastating force shattered Andariel's hastily propped up spell shield, blasting his left shoulder into a blur of flesh and blood, and his massive body crashed to the ground, smashing into a pit of terror.
Tang Ze also jumped down from mid-air and hit the ground.
The dark green firelight was overwhelming, the scorching rubble was blown away, the heat wave pushed through the thick darkness, and the whole palace was filled with heat.
"Looks like my flame is working on you."
Ripping off a scorpion tail, Tang Ze got up from the shattered ground, and in front of him, the green flame wrapped in blood-colored shadows gradually dimmed, revealing half of the burned, gray-faced Andariel's face.
"I can't see your health bar, but now I'm confident that I'll deal with you."
The hideous arms were filled with flame-like burning green ** lines, and the strong concussive force exploded Tang Ze's feet constantly dented, and the terrifying distortion visible to the naked eye emerged from the void, and his fists rushed forward, firing out like cannonballs, crossing the green arc surrounded by flames.
Teng Teng!
Stepping on a pressure-bearing pace, Tang Ze looked at Andariel's location and swung his fists ready to attack.
Rumble!!
The mixture of plasma and venom splashed on the surface of the green flame, and Tang Ze's power had unimaginable penetrating power, directly hitting two large holes, and the destructive power went straight to the ground.
At the same time, the four scorpion tails that were scorched black danced wildly and smashed down towards Tang Ze's location.
Bang bang bang, every collision between the scorpion tail and the demonic scales will bring up large sparks, and the cracks visible to the naked eye will soon spread on the demonic scales.
"Demon Wand."
Tang Ze felt Andariel's weakening power, his eyes lit up, and he decisively seized the opportunity to summon the sheep-headed demon phantom.
The sheep-headed demon, almost as tall as Andariel, let out a roar that shook the palace, and its legs stepped directly through the thick ground, soaking in the blood-colored river below, but the latter was unaffected.
The wielded pitch-black giant stick flashed with the domineering power of [Vicious Concussion] and [Demonic Energy Erosion], swept through two giant pillars one after another, and smashed Andariel's left arm, who had just stood up.
Boom!!!
The blood mist exploded, and the white bones were faintly visible.
Some terrible screams spread, and Andariel's figure dragged a large area of blood, slid down the red carpet, and slammed into a side wall of the palace, and the long fiery red hair hung limply like a shriveled plant.
The two large holes in the abdomen were covered with scorched marks, and blood flowed out, just like the bloody shoulders and left arms, and the eight scorpion tails behind him were all scorched, three of which were cut off and one was torn out by the roots, which was miserable and abnormal.
As a demon king-level existence, even if she loses most of her demon source power, she also has an unimaginable recovery ability.
But just like the spells she was good at, they were all restrained by Tang Ze's [Demon Fire].
The strange green flame had the opposite of the evil attribute of the heavenly flame, but like that flame, it had the same strange power to restrain demons.
At this moment, the situation is completely clear, Tang Ze is almost unscathed, and Andariel is defeated.
The Palace of Blood was crumbling from the destruction of the battle.
From the moment of transformation to the tragic defeat of Andariel, the process is only a few tens of seconds, but the danger is far from as simple as it seems.
The torture queen is indeed a fierce opponent of all time, this Tang Ze has admitted in his heart.
"Are you humiliating me?"
Beneath the face hidden by the long fiery red hair, the golden-red pupils revealed extremely subtle anger.
She really thought it was incredible, and at the same time took it for granted.
It was precisely because Tang Ze had such terrifying and powerful strength that he dared to break Andariel's seal and defeat it completely, which was something she took for granted.
However, Tang Ze did not show his full strength at the first time, but trampled on his body and dignity like a cat playing with a mouse.
This is what she thinks is incredible, how can she achieve such great power with such an idea?
Just because, he is not limited by the rules of this world, just because, he is an outsider?
Ridiculous.
Carrying a solemn mission that could change the direction of the entire shelter, but falling apart in front of such an outsider, this fate made her feel unbelievable and unacceptable.
"Maggots! Just maggots!"
Angry, she shuddered and got to her feet, her feeble scorpion tail pounding the ground and bursting into a series of roars.
Even when the slender stick figure reached the top of her head, the anger in her eyes did not diminish in the slightest, but became more and more violent.
"You don't deserve to win! The darkness shouldn't choose you!"
Spewing out a large pool of black, scorched blood, Andariel gasped desperately, his swaying body trying to defend himself against the slender rod that was about to fall.
"It seems that even the Demon King, after being shattered by the arrogant and conceited aura and flashy coat, is no different from ordinary monsters."
Tang Ze raised his hand slightly, and the giant stick of the sheep-headed demon phantom smashed down and landed on top of Andariel's head, erupting with the sound of gold and iron.
Clang!!!
Contrary to what was expected, it was a large expanse of sparks that sputtered out, not flesh and blood.
At the same time, Tang Ze noticed that Andariel's original fair complexion had become a little dark at the moment, and his golden-red eyes were slowly changing to black and white.
The blue-white lines spread like cracks across her body, and from a distance, it looked like a stone statue about to shatter.
"What's going on?"
At the same time, Tang Ze felt the "Greed Marker" he had placed on Andariel returning, but did not bring out that little bit of health.
"This is..."
Then, in his astonished eyes, Andariel's body turned into a complete gray-white rock, and the stone statue, which had lost all color, was full of cracks, and soon shattered, turning into a cloud of rubble and lime.
In addition, his perceptual spirit felt that some faint fluctuations flashed away and quickly disappeared.
Things turned out completely unexpectedly.
"If Andariel were to die... It's not impossible, but it's still too different from the one in the game... There were no signs of an earthquake in the palace, no dark yellow flames were pouring out of the surroundings, and I didn't receive a reward for experience points and attributes..."
Tang Ze looked at the limestone that Andariel had turned into with a bitter face, and quietly waited for the duration of the demon's true body to end.
The dark green flames slowly subsided, and the effect of the evil current disappeared with the loss of Andariel's target, and Tang Ze received a message prompting the attribute drop, and then closed the message panel.
Since the XP has not been received, it means that Andariel did not die just because of this.
Although she descended to the shelter and lost most of her demonic source power and became very weak, and Tang Ze's repeated skill bombardment had no power to resist, she was also one of the four demon kings of hell.
Escaping in such an unexpected way, sparing his life, is actually not too unexpected.
At least that's what Tang Ze thought, he only had to fight off Andariel, and it would be better if he killed her on this basis, but it didn't matter if he didn't do it.
After repelling Andariel, Canduras had no worries in the short term, and he could carry out his plan with confidence.
Suddenly, the messy palace of blood was silent, and darkness gradually filled.
"Your Excellency." "Your Excellency." "Your Excellency."
The nine professionals at the door glanced at the gravel and lime that Andariel had turned into with palpitations, looked at each other, and did not hide the ecstasy in their eyes, and soon ran to Tang Ze's side, knelt down respectfully, and expressed their loyalty with pleasure and sincerity.
Due to the fact that they come from different countries, they have a variety of postures.
Tang Ze didn't look at it, as if he was thinking about something else, but just dropped a sentence.
"Go get the power back."
"Yes, my lord." "Yes, my lord." "Yes, my lord."
At this moment, when they were about to regain their strength, the mood of these nine professionals was much calmer, and they felt that their wills had become tenacious after witnessing Tang Ze's strength.
Soon, they recovered their bones and weapons behind the Throne of Bones.
The only barbarian among the nine professionals stroked the sword of his life with excitement, and some tears welled up in his eyes, although the gap was all over at the moment, all kinds of memories of the past still came flooding back.
"Do you remember the honors of the past or something?"
The enchanting blue-haired assassin clasped his hands around and quietly looked at the pale silver dagger in front of him, and said something more dangerous.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Oh?
"It's not like an ordinary exclamation."
For a moment, the figures of the eight professionals around them were a little stiff, and their eyes narrowed and their gaze was fierce.
There are many options to regain the power of life, such as finding an opportunity to leave this place and regain the honor that was lost in the past.
Anyone who loses will have a stronger desire to get back to the top, power, wealth, honor, beauty, everything.
In general, there are a lot of ideas, but it is really rare for a blue-haired assassin to say it so directly.
"What do you think? Returning to the human kingdom in disgrace, and then begging for a place to live under the name of the past, do you want to see more of the ridicule that others have to say about you? โ
Crimson power flowed down the rusted blade to the barbarian, and he sneered, "Let's not mention leaving here, I'll have to return to the adults later, and those with different intentions won't end well." โ
"Disasters like Andaril are not the only ones, there are demonic disasters in many parts of the continent, and it is useless to escape."
The necromancer spoke quietly, his gaze piercing, "Following the adults is the most correct plan, and the idea of returning is really stupid and ridiculous." โ
"I say, you, you seem to have been a nobleman of the Duchy of Westmar before, right?"
The druid looked down at the golden round shield on the left corpse, and the broken armor that could still see some patterns, and a touch of indifference welled in his eyes, "I can see through you hypocrites. โ
For a moment, the eyes of the eight professionals were focused on the female assassin.
"That's right, I'm from the Duchy of Westmart, so what?"
The female assassin frowned, "I never bother to explain anything, there is no point in you chattering here, with the wisdom of an adult, he will naturally make the most fair judgment." โ
"Impartiality?"
Hearing this word, the druids and the barbarian brothers invariably sneered.
"Alright, get back the strength and hurry back."
The blue-haired assassin sighed, she did feel it, but she didn't expect it to look like this.
The nine professionals present are all elites who are proficient in several Chinese languages, but this did not eliminate the prejudice between the various countries to make this happen.
Soon, the nine professionals who had regained their strength returned to Karasawa's side.
"I'm going to take over this palace in the short term."
Tang Ze said bluntly, his gaze wandered around the Blood Palace, and then looked at the nine professionals, "Before that, I need to sweep away something. โ
"Yes."
The nine professionals shouted in unison in a rare voice.

Andariel's departure changed a lot of things, such as the landscape of Canduras.
Of course, these are things that take time to accumulate before they can be revealed little by little.
In the dark forest, the sky dome obscured by black clouds revealed a little light, and then more and more, just like the light that was revealed from above after purifying the evil cave in the first place.
Warm and dazzling.
"What's going on?"
Amber Melova frowned, her long golden hair graceful, and her blue eyes flashed with surprise.
"I can feel the aura of darkness dissipating very quickly, maybe your enemy has been knocked down, or maybe it's gone."
"In other words, is this the end of the demonic plague?"
Amber Melova's brow furrowed more and more, and she felt incredible.
Just now, while gathering a team to search for traces of monsters in the dark forest, she spotted Nanya's figure, but the latter disappeared in the blink of an eye as if she had changed into a different person.
The next day, she gathered a sizable team of professionals to search for Nanya, and her instincts told her that Nania was not dead and that something big was about to happen.
The clear light slowly sprinkled down, and the professionals in the green forest noticed something unusual, and raised their heads one after another, their faces were surprised, and their eyes were a little dull.
Above their heads, dark clouds revealed vast holes, and blue light poured out.
It was the emancipated vault of heaven, and the dawn of victory had fallen.
"Lord Amber, we haven't been able to find any trace of Miss Nanya, the Purifiers have done their best... Look..."
But they hadn't forgotten what they were doing, and the two Amazons recovered from the shock of the vision and trotted all the way to Amber Merois, grim-looking.
Including the professionals who agreed to Amber's visit, they were more inclined to believe that Nania had been killed by demons, and that the figure of Nanya that Amber saw was nothing more than an illusion of her.
Amber herself denied this, though.
"Let's try again, besides, Kasha-sama seems to have notice..."
Amber lifted her brow, feeling something vibrate in her arms.
