Chapter 288: Eleventh Demon Branch
Led by Monroe, Edge soon came to the hill where Anne had fought Shores. When they first arrived, both Edge and Giroud were immediately alarmed. It is full of the power of the Holy Light, and they are very sensitive to it because of the powerful power of darkness.
After some inspection, Edge felt a strong dark aura on a nearby hill. There are traces of fierce fighting in both places, which means that before that, Anne had fought with the people of the dark forces and the people of the Holy See.
"Anne......" Thinking of this, Age's worry became especially heavy.
He didn't understand why, why Anne was fighting the dark forces and the people of the Holy See. If it is a person from the dark forces, it is understandable, after all, Anne is the daughter of punishment, and the power of the Holy Light is normal for the enemies of the dark forces. But when it comes to the Holy See, it is puzzling, in a sense, Anne is the same kind of the Holy See, but the Holy See is also unfavorable to her?
"Age......" Just as Edge's contemplation was pondering, Giroud suddenly called out to him through Soul Connection, and there was a harshness in his tone, as if something serious had happened.
Edge reacted and felt a strong aura of darkness that tensed her nerves.
"Monroe, you go back first. Remember, no matter what happens here, don't be here again!" Knowing that an enemy was coming, Edge told Monroe to go first so that she wouldn't be harmed.
Monroe also felt a huge pressure as a sorcerer, she knew that this was not something she could participate in, and if she stayed here, she would probably become a burden to Age, so she nodded to Age, and then left quickly.
Shortly after Monroe's departure, Edge and Giroud waited for the powerful foe who had not seen him, but had seen him first. After waiting for a while, a bright light suddenly appeared in the sky above them, and a stout man stepped out of it.
This stout man has bare arms, his hair tied up in an upturned single ponytail, and his hands and feet are covered with armor-like armor, and he is a tough and strong man.
He's a warrior and doesn't have any special weapons, is he a fighter who uses fists?
After seeing this strong man, Aiji immediately guessed. Since this strong man appeared like this, he must not be friends, and the battle is probably inevitable.
"Hmph, it's really trouble-free, I didn't expect to run into the 'melting pot' directly, so I don't need to look everywhere!" As soon as the strong man appeared, he snorted coldly when he saw Aiji.
Aiji's IQ was not so low, and the strong man in front of him stared directly at him and spoke, and he quickly understood that the 'melting pot' that the strong man was talking about was him. But at the same time, he wondered, what was the furnace, and why did this strong man say that he was a furnace?
"Who are you?" asked Edge, staring at the strong man, cheering up.
The strong man didn't answer him immediately, but sensed this, and then he seemed to have caught something, and hummed: "I didn't expect that ninja guy to be defeated by a woman!
Edge looked at the strong man and stopped snorting. This strong man is so confident, he must have asked him something, and if he didn't want to say it, he wouldn't say it. If he wants to say it, he will say it without asking.
The strong man looked at Aiji again, and suddenly smiled: "Hmph, yes, you have a very good woman, so desperately protect you......"
"What do you mean?!" Edge's eyes suddenly sharpened, and when he heard the strong man say that there was a woman protecting him, he immediately thought of Anne, who had just fought here.
He guessed that maybe Anne was fighting the dark forces and the Holy See to protect him...... If something happened to Anne, it was all because of him.
According to Age's character, how could he possibly accept such a thing.
"Who the hell are you?!"
"I'll ask one last time!" Age's eyes became extremely sharp, and a circle of hollow eyes faintly changed, flashing countless dark air currents, which at first glance looked like a pitch-black hollow.
If something happens to Anne, she has violated his limit, and he will go crazy and desperate to kill the person who has violated his limit.
The strong man couldn't help frowning when he saw the change in Aiji's eyes, a little jealous. But soon he laughed, still confident, and said, "You are far from enough, the strength of the furnace is too weak, but you are not my opponent......"
"Huh~!"
However, as the strong man spoke confidently, Edge suddenly disappeared, and then he was seen to appear behind the strong man.
At this moment, the strong man's body trembled, and his eyes couldn't help but widen. Soon his eyes turned to anger and he turned to Edge, shouting, "You damn bastard......!"
Edge also turned to look at him, and saw that there was an additional scar on his face, spilling a trace of blood.
"Don't doubt my strength, let alone ...... Underestimate my strength!"
"Be careful, you'll die!"
Aiji stared at the strong man and said coldly word by word.
The strong man touched the scars on his face, and instead of showing fear at Edge, he became angry. At the same time, his expression became serious, knowing that he really couldn't underestimate Aiji's strength. Age's strange trick just now passed through his side in an instant and left a scar on his face, which already gave him an idea of Edge's strength.
However, he still didn't think he would lose to Age. In fact, just now he caught Edge's actions the moment Edge's sudden disappearance, and used a layer of shield to protect himself, otherwise he would not have just had a small scar on his face at this time.
Because Aiji didn't show mercy, he used the pupil of wind to make a move just now, not just to warn the strong man. If he could, he wanted to abolish the strong man directly. And after the trick just now, he also had an understanding of the strength of the strong man.
This is a guy who can catch his own actions and has a strong defense. Otherwise, with the sharpness of the ancient magic weapon on the Moros Blade, how could it just hurt a layer of skin of a strong man?
"People who know me call me Iron Wall, but my Iron Wall is not just an ordinary Iron Wall, because I have the nickname of 'Unbreakable Shield', hmph!" Looking at Edge, the strong man introduced his identity.
"Giroud, do you know something?" the strong man just said a little, and Aegie had to turn to Giroud, who had the memory of the inheritance.
Giroud searched for a while and found the answer, telling him: "Iron Wall, the eleventh of the twelve demon branches of the dark forces, has absolute defensive capabilities, can grow a layer of shield outside the body anytime and anywhere, and is indestructible. In the past large-scale battles of the dark forces, the iron wall played an irreplaceable cover role, and was known as the 'unbreakable shield'......"
"It turned out to be the people of the Twelve Demon Branches, hmph, are you also acting?"
I didn't expect that the people of the dark forces had begun to appear publicly, could it be just to deal with themselves?
Tiebi was slightly surprised by Aiji, but he didn't expect Aiji to know about the twelve demon branches. Then he looked at Edge and laughed, and said, "Although you know the twelve demon branches, do you know why we are called demon branches?"
"Excuse me. Edge sneered.
"Because our strength is accumulated according to the 'branches'. For example, the twelfth branch has one powerful ability, and the eleventh branch has two. One is its own, and the other is the twelfth. In terms of branches, our eldest brother, the first demon branch, has twelve powerful abilities...... Hmph, do you think you can beat us?"
Iron Wall proudly told Edge about their Twelve Demon Branches.
Ai Ji sneered after hearing this, and snorted: "What is this, you are only the eleventh demon branch, and there are only two abilities." Even if I can't deal with your big brother, it's more than enough to kill you, right?"
"You're ......!"
"Hubris, then let you see the power that lies beneath my unbreakable shield and invisibility!"
Enraged by Age, Iron Wall begins to attack Edge.
According to the branching power of the twelve demon branches, the power possessed by the iron wall is the unbreakable shield and the invisibility of the invisible ninja. It also has a strong defense ability when it can attack stealthily.,I have to say it's a tricky enemy.,I don't know how Aggie should deal with it.。
