Chapter 22: The Fall of Moxi City
Under the silent sky, Nightmare stretched out his thin arm, black magic surging in his palm. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info for a long time, he suddenly remembered something, put away the spell, and looked at Qiu Yan.
"What are you doing?" Qiu Yan frowned.
"Remember the first time we met? You said you wanted to hear me play the harp, but you left after I brought the harp!"
"Oh. Qiu Yan replied coldly.
"It's just right, the atmosphere is so beautiful, I'll play it to you?" Nightmare seemed interested.
Su Mu opened his mouth wide in surprise, he looked at the nightmare, and then at Qiu Yan, thinking, this monster can also play the piano?
"Whatever you want. Qiu Yan wanted to see what tricks he was playing.
Nightmare suddenly laughed, and he whispered a few words to Bai Yu on his shoulder, and Bai Yu received the order and immediately rushed out like an arrow. This time he must have exhausted all his strength, Su Mu was surprised that there was a bird that could fly so fast!
It didn't take long for Bai Yu to fly back, and he actually grabbed a small harp in his paws. At this time, the yellow sand in the desert began to surge strangely, drumming like something was struggling to break through the ground.
"No, no, it's not the time yet. Nightmare pressed his palm, and the desert immediately regained its calm.
White Feather flew back and landed again on Nightmare's shoulder, who picked up the harp and sat gracefully on the wall, her legs hanging down naturally.
"The harp and the tune were taught to me by a human girl, and I liked her very much, but unfortunately she died. Nightmare smiled, his gaze falling through the desert into the void, no one could see what he was thinking, "Now this song is given back to the equally beautiful girl, I hope you will like it." ”
The nightmare began to pluck the strings, and although the volume was not loud, it was as soft as a rainbow, full of poetry, sometimes warm and sometimes mysterious. Qiu Yan frowned, she didn't expect a demon king to be able to outline such beautiful notes.
At this moment, something suddenly came out of the yellow sand. Su Mu was taken aback, he rushed to the city wall, held the city wall and looked down, countless white bones crawled out of the sand, and the dead mountains of demonic beast corpses also stood up, they didn't make any sound, and began to rush towards the battlefield in the distance.
"Warcraft...... Resurrected?!" Su Mu couldn't believe his eyes. But this is not the end of it, countless demonic beasts stood up from the pile of corpses, and the demonic beast that had been burned by the fire with only one claw also stood up, its body composed of yellow sand, and staggered towards the battlefield.
There were also countless skeletons, undead spirits who died at some point, struggling to get out of the sand.
"Tian Chen?!" Su Mu yelled in surprise. He saw that the corpse of Tian Chen on the city tower suddenly emitted a ray of black light, and the black light seeped into the yellow sand, and after a while, Tian Chen, who was sand molded, also got up from the sand, he was stunned for a while, and suddenly rushed to the battlefield in the distance.
"What are you doing, stop!" Qiu Yan saw the scene in front of her, and suddenly rushed up and grabbed the nightmare. The soft sound of the piano stopped, and Nightmare looked back at Qiu Yan and wondered, "You haven't finished listening to the song yet." ”
At this time, the 20,000 warriors of Tianliu and Moxi City, who were engulfed by the yellow sand, also came out of the sand, their expressions were dull, but their movements were agile, and they rushed towards the Heavenly Wolf and his army.
Qiu Yan's eyes suddenly turned red, and he shouted at the nightmare: "Why don't you even let go of the dead!"
"What? What's wrong with you? I just gave them a new lease of life. Nightmare looked at Qiu Yan and said softly.
Tian Liutian Chen and tens of thousands of Moxi City soldiers who died in battle had already rushed to the battlefield at this moment, and in the face of the 200,000 soldiers and civilians who also belonged to Moxi, they began to kill wildly. When everyone saw the resurrected Tianliu and the sand sculpture Tianchen, everyone was terrified and unable to fight back. Beside him were the bones of demonic beasts that were accumulating more and more.
At this time, the Heavenly Wolf suddenly roared angrily, looking at the slaughter of the living people, he couldn't care about the corpse of the old general in front of him, and urged the field, countless golden eagles swooped down, tearing the soldiers of Moxi City who had died once into pieces again. However, the battle did not stop, and the torn flesh mixed with the yellow sand and was once again shaped into human form and stood up.
There were terrible screams on the battlefield, and the living had burrowed into the Celestial Wolf's Golden Eagle Realm for refuge, which prevented him from casting spells, making the already hopeless battle even more difficult.
"It's useless, as long as the demon heart in my hand is not exhausted, the warriors are immortal. Nightmare looked at the wolf struggling on the battlefield and shook his head.
At this time, Qiu Yan suddenly saw that Nightmare was holding the harp in her left hand, but her right hand was spread out, and the black light mist on it seemed to hide something.
"What are you holding in your hand?" Qiu Yan asked coldly.
"The astrolabe, which contains tens of millions of demon hearts. The black mist in Nightmare's hand dissipated, revealing a round disc the size of a palm, the bottom of which looked like night, dotted with countless stars of different colors, some of which scurried back and forth like meteors, and when they looked closely, they seemed to struggle to escape from the night.
Qiu Yan immediately understood that the twinkling stars on it were the demon hearts collected by the nightmare, and he used the corpse as a carrier to inject the demon hearts to resurrect the dead.
So Qiu Yan pulled out the sharp knife and quickly stabbed at the disc. Nightmare hurriedly withdrew his hand and dodged Qiu Yan's attack, but just when he made a move, Qiu Yan, who was attacking, suddenly turned into an illusion, and his real body slashed at him for a second time. Nightmare frowned, his body shook, and he left the city wall in an extremely strange posture, dodging Qiu Yan's second knife, but before Nightmare could stabilize his body, the attacking Qiu Yan turned into an illusion again, and the third knife stabbed fiercely.
Nightmare was caught off guard by the Ghost Moon Knife Technique, and he did his best to protect the astrolabe from attack, so he was stabbed several times by the illusion, his left arm began to bleed, and his cheek was also scratched by the blade.
Qiu Yan didn't mean to stop, she attacked more and more, the speed of the knife became faster and faster, and the offensive of the seven illusions was like water.
Enraged, Nightmare shook White Feather away with all his might, and then threw the harp over, which White Feather grabbed playfully. At the same time, the nightmare suddenly turned into a black shadow, light and fast shuttle through the phantom, for a long time did not find the real body, the nightmare became impatient, he pulled out the death scythe, and in an instant, all the illusions were torn apart, Qiu Yan was stabbed in the abdomen, was slashed out, and slammed into the city wall, blood flowed.
Just as the nightmare continued to bully forward, ready to kill with one blow, Su Mu rushed over, blood and tears blocked the death scythe, and the wind shook the nightmare.
"What, you want to die too?" Nightmare looked at Su Mu lightly.
"With me, you can't kill her. Su Mu said coldly, a chill appeared beside him, and his dark pupils slowly turned white.
Feeling the change in Su Mu's breath, Qiu Yan hurriedly stood up, pushed Su Mu away, and said angrily: "You get out of here! Unlocking the seal is just a ninth-order demon king, it's really a hindrance!"
Nightmare looked at Su Mu's discolored pupils, shook his head, and said lightly: "You are very interesting, I can let you go." But my principle is that the fight must have a beginning and an end, and since it is done to me, this girl must die. ”
"I repeat, you can't kill her with me. Su Mu's voice was low, but it revealed an inexplicably powerful coercion, this feeling was cold and violent, and it was unsettling. Nightmare and Qiu Yan were stunned at the same time.
Nightmare raised an eyebrow and turned the pitch-black scythe in his left hand.
Su Mu suddenly didn't want to run away anymore, although he knew that fighting the nightmare would definitely die, but he made a choice. He reminded himself every day and night to be strong, to take revenge, to live, so he practiced a magical escape skill. Then, he did survive, for three years as a mercenary, all the people in the corps died, only he survived. In order to keep him alive, the head of the regiment died, Nana died, and now, what is he? Just a sixth-order magician, living under the hermitage, surviving for a long time, he will only escape when he encounters death, but he can easily kill when he sees his fellow disciples, is this what he wants? Yuemian is right, he is not qualified to talk about the mission, he is not qualified to take revenge.
He had already decided not to run away anymore, he was Bai Feng, the son of the city lord of Spirit Wind City, and he was standing here, risking his life for dignity and for what he truly believed in.
At this moment, the distant battlefield erupted into a roar, the sky wolf looked up to the sky and laughed, and the golden eagle spread across the sky, illuminating the night. The 200,000 people of Moxi City fought bloodily under the leadership of the Golden Eagle, and all of them died in the hopeless battlefield, and then turned into a reborn demon and rushed towards the Heavenly Wolf again.
The wolf was covered in blood and unclothed, and there were no more children in Moxi City beside him who needed to be guarded, and he stood alone in the desert, surrounded by familiar but lifeless faces. The sky wolf looked up at the silver moon floating in the sky, and suddenly pierced the golden spear into the ground, countless golden eagles hissed in the sky, and then converged into a beam of light of a hundred birds, and frantically drilled into the spear, the sky darkened, and the full moon was bright and dazzling.
When the resurrected corpse was about to pounce on the celestial wolf, the ground in Moxi suddenly shook, and the shaking was very violent, making the corpses staggered and unstable.
"Earthquake?" Nightmare was stunned, took his eyes off Su Mu, turned to look at the battlefield, the ground began to shake violently, and the strong walls of Moxi City began to loosen.
The wolf raised his head to the sky and roared, and in the roar that tore through the sky, cracks appeared in the earth, and the cracks spread outward from the wolf's golden gun, gradually spreading bigger and bigger, and the sand on both sides began to pour into the cracks, and the wolf held his chest and fell into the dark cracks. Qiu Yan and Su Mu opened their mouths in surprise, and in the violent shaking, they saw that the yellow sand of the battlefield rolled up countless corpses and fell into the cracks in the ground, and the cracks in the ground became wider and wider, like a sharp sword stabbing towards the city of Moxi.
Moxi City was torn in half by the crack and began to collapse, and Qiu Yan and Nightmare were separated by the crack. Nightmare didn't want to let go of Qiu Yan at all, propped up her black wings, and flew over, Su Mu hurriedly propped up the wind wings and greeted it, the sickle and blood and tears collided in the air, bursting out with red sparks.
When the two faced off in the air, Moxi City had completely collapsed, turning into a ruin lying in the cracks, and the huge cracks in the ground were also covered with yellow sand, looking like a dry riverbed. There was no life on the battlefield, the corpses of countless humans and demonic beasts were sunk into the cracks in the ground, and the desert returned to calm, as if nothing had happened.
Su Mu couldn't find Qiu Yan anymore, and he desperately waved blood and tears to fight with the nightmare. The strength of the nightmare in the air was greatly reduced, and his control of the wings was not as good as Su Mu's, but it was the wind that Su Mu kept raising made the air flow unstable and hindered the flight of the wings.
"Do you think you have a chance of winning in the air? Okay, let's set the rules, I like the rules, you humans have a saying, there is no rule without rules, I like it very much. After the nightmare blocked Su Mu, he smiled, "We are fighting in the air, and we can't use spells, but you can use the wind to disturb my flying airflow, and we will fight the sword technique." ”
"Looks like you're worried about living too long. Su Mu said.
"Fighting is not killing, and mere killing is not interesting. Nightmare laughed, "Your weapon is interesting, but unfortunately, it doesn't take advantage of my scythe." I'm a little worried that you'll be able to do that girl's knife skills right now, and when it comes to that girl, I need to give you some motivation, she's lying in the ruins, and after I kill you, I'm going to kill her, I've found her. ”
"You're really worried about living too long. Su Mu flapped his wings and quickly rushed towards the nightmare. The nightmare dodged easily, and a knife cut Su Mu's back, and there was a hot pain.
"Doesn't that feel reckless?" said Nightmare with a laugh.
Su Mu was furious, and he flapped his wings again and rushed forward, this time accompanied by a violent wind, making the nightmare unstable in the air. Nightmare's body lost its balance in the air, Su Mu waved his knife again and again, but he dodged it, and Nightmare's figure was like a ghost, and he couldn't cut it no matter what.
"Watch your back!" Nightmare slashed Su Mu back with a knife.
Su Mu was stabbed twice, and the blood had already soaked his back, and the severe pain and clammy cold were very uncomfortable. He began to stare at the nightmare, calmly analyzing his combat skills. At this point, he found that the Nightmare was hanging in the air, seemingly waiting for himself to come into range of his attack before counterattacking. So Su Mu pinched the wind blade and went straight to the back of the nightmare's head. Nightmare shook his head, waved his hand casually to block the wind blade, and said, "Spell sneak attack, you are violating the law like this. ”
"Standing still, isn't it a violation?" asked Su Mu coldly.
"Oh, so you don't dare to rush over again, okay, I'll come to you. Nightmare grinned and quickly rushed over.
Su Mu raised the wind and directly blew the nightmare out of direction, and the nightmare couldn't control its wings and stumbled towards Su Mu. Su Mu saw the opportunity, and slashed at the nightmare, at the moment when Su Mu took out the knife, the nightmare suddenly retracted his wings, and he raised the sickle to block Su Mu without being disturbed by the wings, and quickly pulled out another sickle with his other hand, accurately cutting open Su Mu's stomach.
Su Mu was in pain, and quickly used his hands to protect the wound to prevent the internal organs from falling out.
The nightmare that fell in the air once again propped up its wings and flew over, Su Mu was furious, and suddenly raised his blood and tears.
"You can't stop it. Nightmare smiled, and without hesitation, he raised his scythe and rushed towards Su Mu.
"Break the air. Su Mu let out a low roar, and the blood and tears slashed down, the huge wind blade cut out from the blood and tears, and the violent wind mixed with magic roared away, and the wind blade was ten people high, and rushed towards the nightmare frantically.
Nightmare was taken aback, he didn't expect Su Mu to be defenseless, but to fight for his life, it was easy to kill him at this moment, but he didn't know how many injuries he would suffer, after thinking for a while, Nightmare hurriedly dodged away.
But in the air, the wings were disturbed by Su Mu's Gangfeng, unable to move freely, and the huge wind blade still slashed at the nightmare, and the nightmare raised the Death Scythe and blocked it on the wind blade, but it was not completely blocked, and part of the Gangfeng bypassed the sickle and slashed firmly at the nightmare.
Suddenly, a deep wound dragged from Nightmare's right shoulder to his left side, and blood stained his single garment.
"It's not dead," Su Mu sneered, "It's your fate." ”
"This is the second time you've violated the rules," Nightmare looked at Su Mu with an expressionless face, "It's really a sinister and cunning person who actually hurt me in such a way." ”
"I told you a long time ago that I'm based on my IQ until now. Su Mu grinned.
"But your IQ can't save you, I'm going to kill you now. Nightmare's voice was no longer soft, but cold, and Su Mu could feel his anger.
The nightmare raised his scythe, and suddenly turned into a black shadow and rushed over, as fast as lightning, Su Mu couldn't react at all. In an instant, his right arm holding the sword was cut off shoulder to shoulder, and blood and tears fell from the sky along with the severed arm.
Before Su Mu could feel the pain, the nightmare rushed up again, this time, he clearly saw the black sickle on his neck, the scythe sliding, and he actually saw his head flying out, blood splattering everywhere.
"Squeak squeak...... There was a piercing sound of metal rubbing in his ears, and golden light splashed everywhere, Su Mu suddenly came back from his hallucination and found that he was not dead.
He froze and saw a girl standing in front of him. The silver moonlight sprinkled on her, reflecting a beautiful and elegant back. She wore a black sacrificial robe, the robe was simply printed with a maple leaf pattern, and the violent swing of the sword made the waterfall of hair thrown out of the robe, and the end position was still simply tied up with a hair rope.
The girl stood up in the air, blood and tears in her hands with the luster of the silver moon, and the night breeze blowing on her face, bringing a familiar fragrance.
