Volume 1 The Fall of the King's Power Chapter 183 Bloody War
Edward hurriedly distanced himself from Russell, just to avoid being attacked by the explosion of blood beads.
Although Russell had cut the blood beads in the previous battle, he could not resist the shock wave formed by the explosion of the blood beads.
But now that he happens to have the protection of the badge on his body, Russell will certainly not be afraid of the power of this blood bead anymore!
At this time, Edward's body had returned to the peak of the abyss with a steady supply of magic power, so the speed and quality of the blood beads he condensed now far exceeded before.
Within a few seconds, scarlet blood beads were launched towards Russell a few meters away, reaching Russell's body in the blink of an eye.
Russell stabbed out with a sword, and easily picked through the blood bead, and suddenly the blood bead exploded earth-shatteringly, and countless lines of corrosive blood shot out onto nearby things.
The first person to bear the brunt of the erosion was Russell nearby, most of the blood flew towards Russell's body, and the huge impact was swept like a giant hammer.
Only this time Russell did not suffer the same tragic injuries as last time, and Russell immediately released the light of the morning light, easily dissolving most of the blood.
The remaining shockwave only caused a ripple on the barrier of the emblem's expansion, and it was completely absorbed by the barrier.
The blood beads that turned out to be able to cause great damage to Russell were dissolved by him in this way, and it seemed that after this attack, Russell could be regarded as unscathed.
However, Russell himself is not as relaxed as others seem.
The situation of Dawn in his hand is okay, Russell is gradually able to communicate with Dawn, and with the strength that Dawn originally has, he can always fight Edward.
However, the most dangerous situation is that the badge is close to the point of damage, and when the badge is in Gail's hands, it has been forcibly used by Gale many times to defend against the enemy's unstoppable attacks, causing it to suffer great losses.
Therefore, just now, after Russell noticed that the badge on his body defended against the attack of the blood beads, it was damaged a little, and the crack on the surface of the badge deepened a lot again.
Russell glanced at the forest in the distance, where a purple storm had spawned and began to ravage the trees in the forest.
According to Carlos's statement, the teleportation circle should have been destroyed by Carter! Why can Edward continue to act recklessly here?
Looks like there's something wrong with the circle! Russell must find a chance to go into the forest to find the answer to his question!
Edward saw that Russell's attention was not focused on himself, and he couldn't help but feel humiliated by Russell's contempt.
I'd like to see if your power runs out first, or if my blood runs out first!
Edward erupted with the blood of his body, two thick bloody arms formed at his shoulders, and he conjured two bloody claws, waving four arms towards Russell.
In the ancient forest in the distance, another battle is still in full swing.
The battle was extremely uneven in numbers, with only three men on one side and close to a thousand on the other.
Of course, this can also be counted as the last battle between the Abyss and the Empire, and the battle is no less tragic than the rest of the battles.
In fact, to forcibly say that there are only three people on the abyss side, it does not mean that the three of them are just relying on their own strength to fight against hundreds of knights of the Dragoon Knights.
Because the circle was destroyed by the knights and the magic was constantly leaking from the abyss, the power of Toren the Minotaur and Bobby the goblin was greatly enhanced by magic.
At this time, Torruan, who was a warrior, was draped in a magical shield, which was a defensive magic added to him by Nikolai, who had just learned some simple abyssal magic.
While this shield is vulnerable to small magic, iron weapons against humans are a breeze.
In addition, Toren himself adds sharpness and range of magic to the tomahawk on his opponent.
At this moment, he was like an ancient beast of prey, rampaging through the ranks of knights and coming and going freely.
However, Torun alone can't stop the Empire's most elite knights, and there are still plenty of spears and knightly swords that can penetrate defensive magic and cause damage to him!
Poppy wasn't idle, of course, and his endless magic supported him to unleash the magic of the abyss—the resurrection of the dead.
The bones of countless various animals that had died in the forest crawled out of the damp underground, and Poppy's body was controlled and combined into a team to resist the knights' attacks.
The knights encountered a large number of enemies, and for a short time their offensive stalled, thus giving Toruń, who was charging in the middle of the enemy formation, time to retreat.
Toruń immediately returned from the enemy's ranks, his strength was too great for any knight to stop his retreat, so Torń ran to where Poppy and Nikolai were staying, panting.
"Hey, big man, can you still hold up with so many humans attacking you like this?"
Toruń, who was being treated by Nikolai, replied disdainfully, "Bobby, we can now use the abyss magic at will, how can I not be able to defeat these humans?
Poppy pursed his lips, as if he was dissatisfied with Toruń preaching him here, he could only keep a straight face and perfunctory,
"Yes, yes, isn't it just to guard this magic circle? This magic circle is really dangerous, once it receives a large number of attacks, there will be spatial turbulence, it is as dangerous as staying at the mouth of a dragon!"
Before the words fell, Poppy saw that the knight had broken through the formation of the skeleton soldiers again, and hurriedly controlled the nearby skeleton soldiers to rush to fill the gap.
Carter, who was not far from the three Toruns, was overwhelmed, and he rode on his horse and brandished a knight's sword, directing the nearby dragoons to hurry to attack the enemy's troops.
Everything was beyond his expectations, and in the early hours of this morning, the knights who had been working all night had finally completely destroyed the circle under his command.
However, the circle did not completely eliminate the abyssal forces from this world as they expected.
Instead, some small black dots suddenly appeared from the pile of rubble in the circle, and these black dots tended to grow.
The curious knight didn't care about Carter's ban on not letting them touch the black dots, and secretly touched the black dots around him, and the knight's reckless behavior led to very disastrous consequences.
Suddenly, these black dots seemed to be awakened, and they spread out rapidly in all directions, and in an instant, dozens of knights near the ruins of the circle were sucked into the black dots.
It was like a key opening a door, and the vicinity of the ruins suddenly began to shake, and even the giant trees on the side collapsed.
In order to ensure the safety of the team, Carter immediately ordered the whole team to evacuate the place immediately.
The strong earthquake soon stopped, and in its place, countless purple magic elements appeared from the circle and took over the forest.
With the convergence of mana, the mana gushing out from inside the circle gradually increased, forming a purple mana storm.
As the storm grows, Carter realizes that if they don't do something about it, they will be in for trouble.
In this way, Carter took hundreds of knights, determined to die, to try to stop the spread of this magical storm.
Carter tried many methods, and finally found that using rockets could effectively stop the spread of magic, and it seemed that the magic would be neutralized by the hot flames.
Just when Carter was overjoyed to find that he could stop the spread of the disaster, the three of them received the task from Edward and hurried here.
The purpose of the three Toruns is to protect this magical storm, and to allow Lord Edward to go all out to defeat Russell and conquer the world.
It was in this situation that two opposing teams met again. They immediately began to fight, and the battle has continued until now, and it has not yet been decided.
However, the bones in this forest are still limited, and if this team of skeletons is annihilated by the knights, the ability of only three people will not be able to hold on to the humans.
This is also the case with the skeletal soldiers, whose bones are almost incomplete, and they have no weapons to kill the knights.
Poppy is also aware of the shortcomings of the team, and his purpose is only to delay the pace of humanity and buy Edward more time!
Poppy turned his head and confidently assured Toruń and Nikolai that with this skeleton team alone, he could stop the humans here for an hour!
But before he could finish bragging, a dazzling light shot from the sky, directly erasing dozens of skeleton soldiers from this place, making Poppy stunned and stunned in place.
Everyone present looked up at the top of their heads in shock, and it turned out to be the power caused by Russell's sword.
It turned out that Russell and Edward were fighting in the sky one after another, and under Russell's deliberate leadership, they had already flown above the heads of the soldiers on both sides at some point.
Edward didn't care about Russell's small movements, dozens of skeleton soldiers were no different from ants in his eyes, his current fighting spirit had already been completely stimulated by Russell, and now he just wanted to fight Russell to the death!
Edward constructed hundreds of blood arrows in an instant, forming a rain of arrows pouring towards Russell, who unhurriedly swung out a ray of light, and the light instantly wiped out many blood arrows.
Edward saw that long-range attacks didn't work against Russell, so in that case, he engaged in melee combat with Russell!
Edward dodged and teleported to Russell's eyes, throwing out two long bloody arms around him to attack Russell in front, while his figure rushed directly towards Russell, and the two blood claws also grabbed Russell's head.
Russell stared intently in the direction of Edward's attack, and it seemed that he was very cunning, attacking his left and right sides, presumably to attack his weakness.
Edward was assisted by four arms, and of course Russell had his own means of defense.
Russell could guarantee that the badge would block the attack, so Russell didn't try to dodge his opponent's attack at all, but instead stepped forward and stabbed Edward in the chest with a sword.
If this sword could have stabbed Edward completely, even Edward in his heyday would have been mortally wounded.
After all, Edward is no longer the low-level vampire who dared to fight his opponent to the death, he has become an abyss lord, and at the same time has become a lot more desperate.
Edward immediately switched to defense, blocking the bloody arms on either side of him, and unleashing a blood shield in front of him to defend himself.
As expected, Dawn once again easily severed Edward's arm, piercing through the sturdy shield of blood.
Before Russell could continue to attack, Edward's wild laughter came from his ears,
"Haha, I'm just waiting for you! You've fallen into my trap, and the offensive and defensive positions of the two of us are now reversed!"
Only then did Russell realize that he had been shrouded in a thick dark fog.
Russell's eyes seemed to be dark, and he couldn't even hear the enemy's position clearly.
At this moment, Edward is quietly hiding in this darkness, waiting for the opportunity to deal a fatal blow to Russell!
