Volume 2 The Birth of the Demon King Chapter 145 The Desperate Situation of Cones
Unlike the last time he worked on Pedro's magic sword, the Emir took much more time to repair it in earnest, and it wasn't until late evening that he was fully completed.
Pedro retrieved his armor and sword, looked at it for a moment, and smiled with satisfaction.
"Thank you so much, Emir, I owe you a favor, I just don't know if there will be a chance to repay you in the future."
The emir crossed his arms and said unceremoniously.
"Okay, there is no need for polite words, as long as you keep your promises, I will thank God."
"Hehe, I understand."
Pedro wasn't angry either, and he was going to say goodbye to everyone after putting on his armor.
Unfortunately, it was not early at this time, and the Emir and they could not immediately go to crusade against Cones, and the magic sword had just been repaired, and the performance might not be stable, so the Emir suggested that he rest for a night before setting off.
Pedro, however, shook his head.
"No need, it doesn't matter day or night for monsters, and I can't wait to plunge this sword into Cones's chest, so I'll leave it at that, but to be honest, I do want to repay your trust, but it's a pity ......"
"Okay, okay, I see, you go." The emir interrupted him impatiently.
After all, his relationship with this guy is not good enough to be reluctant.
He only hopes that Pedro can really make a difference, even a little bit, and if he uses up Cones' stamina a little, they will have more chances of winning.
After a while, before the sun set, the crowd watched Pedro's figure fade away, and finally disappeared below the horizon.
Emile was about to take them back to rest when Anne suddenly approached him.
"Emir, do you really believe that guy will help us deal with Cornes?"
"Well," said the emir, after a moment's thought, "of course I won't believe it completely, but as you can see, he gave us all his heart, and he probably can't play tricks." ”
"Indeed," Anne nodded, and then said quietly, "probably on my mind, I always thought something was going to happen...... Alas, forget about it, forget about my words. ”
However, Emir heard her say this, and it was impossible to forget it, but he cared even more, after all, that guy was also a dark knight, and the information that the witches had was really correct? And who wrote that information?
There are still many puzzles that have not been solved, so he chose Pedro so quickly, which is too casual.
However, according to the results of the magic perception, Pedro has indeed left, even if he really has a problem, when the time comes, he will only be a mantis arm blocking the car in front of the white dragon's magic, and there is nothing to be afraid of.
As soon as he thought of this, he relaxed and decided to get a good night's sleep first.
Of course, in order to prevent Kones from sneaking up on him, the night watchman was indispensable, and the emir, as the lord of the city, volunteered to be the first in line, but this proposal was directly rejected by some grumpy guy.
"Hmph, just human, don't do it here, I'll keep vigil all night, after all, dragons never need to sleep."
Listening to Alice's tone, it was obviously not a suggestion, but a naked order, and if someone dared not agree, she would probably directly raise her fist and hit someone.
"Never had to sleep? Do dragons have this habit? ”
Lustie was immediately intrigued and surprised, for she had studied dragon history for a long time and had never heard of such a thing.
"Haha, there's no such thing, my sister is just joking." Lilith stepped forward in time to clarify.
As a result, Alice was immediately unhappy, and lectured her sister with a straight face.
"I said Lilith, how did you forget to turn your elbow, didn't I want to give humans the impression that dragons are reliable?"
"I see," Lusty nodded thoughtfully, and then said, "Miss Alice, there is no need to do such a thing, the dragon has always been the strongest creature in the land, and your performance in battle during the day is enough to keep humanity singing forever." ”
"Really, really?" Alice's eyes widened, and then she showed a shy expression that didn't match the strongest creature at all, "That's too exaggerated, it's just my effort, I, I'm not worthy of your praise forever, but if you want to express your gratitude to me, I can accept it...... Ah, don't get me wrong, I don't want your gift either, in fact, I'm satisfied with a few words of thanks...... Huh? ”
However, she kept her head down and talked for a long time, and when she looked up by chance, she found that the others had already walked to the front, and she immediately blushed with anger, and then chased after her in a hurry.
……
It didn't take long for Pedro to follow the traces of Cones' magic to find his hideout.
However, before Pedro could get close to this stronghold, the extremely oppressive presence took the initiative to approach him.
Eventually, the two sides met in front of the surface structure of the colony, and the darkness did not obscure their vision.
Rather, in Pedro's hateful eyes, nothing could stop him from confronting Cones.
"Pedro, have you recovered from your injuries?" Cornes asked with a smile.
"It's all at this time, and I still have the leisure to talk nonsense, do you think I don't know the truth yet?"
"Of course not, our grudge has lasted for hundreds of years, although you have become silent since the last time you were reprimanded by the Demon King, but I know very well your resentment against me, and until now, I will not deny what I have done to the Demon King, but before the two of us fight to the death, I want to talk to you."
Pedro snorted coldly and couldn't help but tease.
"Ouch, Cornes, I didn't expect you to be patient to chat with people now, sure enough, I haven't gotten along with you for more than five hundred years, and I don't even know you anymore, or do you really think you're a demon king, you can talk to me?"
"Pedro!" Cones' face immediately changed, "I don't want to kill you for the sake of my companions, so don't be ashamed." ”
"Haha, just a few words to reveal your true face, it seems that you don't have the strength to be a demon king, it's really sad."
"Tsk."
Cones made a direct move, and he moved in front of Pedro almost instantly, and then condensed a black flame and struck the opponent's head.
But he quickly realized that Pedro has a high fire resistance, and even the Demon King's black flame can't do much damage.
Sure enough, this attack was directly blocked by Pedro's armor, although it continued to spread on his body, and even covered his whole body in the end, it was finally absorbed by the armor and transformed into his magic power.
Pedro secretly admired the emir's skills, and he immediately went on the offensive.
He knew very well how terrifying Cones's strength was now, so he decided to use the full power of the magic sword as soon as he came up.
He possessed the most powerful magic sword of the Dark Knight, and it was only because he had awakened it at the cost of his most beloved woman, but fortunately Syrt still had all the memories of his life, so he was not so heartbroken that he almost chose to kill himself.
At this time, in the face of Cornes rushing over angrily, Pedro did not dodge, and directly pulled out the magic sword and slashed it.
The repaired magic sword was completely different from before, just with a wave of his hand, a large area of sword qi turned into red light and wrapped Cornes.
Cornes was really frightened, and he quickly dodged to avoid unnecessary physical exertion, after all, he still had enough energy to deal with Emir and the others.
And it was this action that saved him from life, because he forgot for a moment that the magic sword had the effect of inhibiting the ability to heal itself.
But the danger was not lifted, Pedro used his proud sword skills, he swung the giant sword, countless sword qi fused into a red pillar of light, and then advanced towards Cones, where no grass was grown, and the dirt was turned up, and then it was instantly dried by the heat like the sun.
At that moment, more than a thousand meters around were illuminated by red light, and the center had enough heat to evaporate most of life in an instant.
This is a sword skill that can be tracked, Cornes couldn't get rid of it for a long time, and seeing that it was about to be affected, he hurriedly used a move to get rid of the golden cicada, intending to use a stand-in to resist the attack.
The moment it touched the pillar of light, the stand-in disappeared, and Cornes couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat when he saw this.
He suddenly felt incredible, Pedro's magic level was not high, how could he burst out with such a powerful power.
However, just as he was shocked, the pillar of light continued to attack him, and it seemed that he would not stop until he destroyed his true body.
Cornes was bitter, and in the midst of his helplessness, he suddenly remembered the effect of the magic sword, which added to his fear.
He hadn't been so embarrassed in the face of the siege of Emir and others before, but now he was beaten and fled by the guy he had always looked down on.
"Sure enough, can't I become a demon king?" Cornes smiled wryly, but then he picked himself up again.
Now that he has gained the power of the Demon King, how can he lose to such a small person.
Then he raised a hand towards the sky, and a great black sun appeared above the sky, because there was a layer of light on the edge, and it was very conspicuous at night.
However, it was the first time he had used this move, so he didn't know that it would take a certain amount of time to cast the spell, and although it wasn't long, it was enough for Pedro to take the opportunity to kill him.
"This sucks."
Cones hurriedly decided to summon a stand-in to block the attack of the pillar of light for himself, but when he thought of the scene of the stand-in disappearing just now, his heart suddenly rose to his throat again.
Then, dozens of stand-ins were summoned, and they all stood in front of Cornes, even for a few seconds, as long as they could buy him time, the battle was won by him.
It's a pity that he was frightened by the terrifying pillar of light, and he didn't notice for a moment that Pedro could move freely after unleashing his sword skills.
At this moment, a wide magic sword was pressed against Cornes's back, and his scalp suddenly went numb.
"How is that possible? How could I possibly lose! I'm ...... Ahh
The blade stabbed into his body in an instant, then twisted and shattered, and in despair, Cornes's self-healing ability was completely discontinued, and he felt pain not seen in hundreds of years.
"Pedro...... Please...... Give me one more chance...... I can use the power of the demon king...... Let it ...... you."
