Chapter 131: The Arrival and Ambush of a Strong Enemy

readx;? The leader of the abyssal dwarves was a little surprised when he was interrogated, and Xu Yue had already obtained all the things he wanted to know without much formalities. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info and after using magic to identify the words of the dwarven leader, he found that all the words of the other party were the truth, but it was precisely because of these truths that he felt very troubled.

"Another seventh-level demon, or the more powerful of the seventh-level. It seems that things have become a little troublesome this time, but what exactly was left behind by the middle-level demon named Sbollock, and it actually made those two burning demons sure that the middle-level demon named Lothar would come after getting the news.

At first, he suspected that it might be a succubus Lori who had just been born from a demon egg, but the words of the leader of the Abyssal Lover proved that the mid-level demon named Sbollock should have left behind an object and not a creature. In desperation, he put the matter down first, and let the battle puppets escort the thirty or so abyssal dwarves back to their base. Fortunately, this base has been expanded several times, so although the number of dwarven tribes is quite large, it is still possible to live.

For this group of abyssal dwarves, Xu Yue had the idea of accepting them as his subordinates from the very beginning, but with his identity as a human mage, especially under the premise of not having overwhelming strength, it is basically impossible to make these abyssal people willing to submit like that middle-level demon named Lothar, even if the predecessor of the abyss dwarves was the dwarven race that was plundered from the continent of Taramia and evolved, but after living in the abyss for such a long time, the concept of the abyssal creatures respecting the strong has penetrated into their consciousness.

However, Xu Yue is not worried about this, in fact, he will not rest assured that he will not do anything about the abyss creatures, if there are any constraints, even if he receives his subordinates, he will not dare to use it with confidence. So from the beginning, he planned to use Talumia's slave brand to control the abyssal dwarves.

On the continent of Talumia, there are many slaves due to races and powers, and there are many slaves born of various wars and other reasons. But not all prisoners of war were willing to be slaves. Without strong restraints, it is not uncommon for those who have been enslaved to rebel. In this case, the slave brand came into being.

The Slave Mark is a sigil similar to a magical contract, though the Slave Mark is not signed with the consent of both parties as a magical contract. The Slave Brand can be branded by the Stronger even if the target creature disagrees. This imprint is directed at the spiritual power of living beings. Once branded as a slave, then the person who has mastered the core secret text of the brand can control the life and death of the slave through the core secret. They can even make a slave's head pop open with the slightest thought.

This slave brand, due to its ability to require the consent of the target creature, caused chaos in the history of Talumia for a long time. Some corrupt aristocrats, underground dark forces, and even creatures of different races began to plunder the population on a large scale, turning many innocent civilians into slaves, and this kind of thing eventually attracted the attention of all the high-level people on the continent.

Although slavery could not be abolished for a variety of reasons, the top powers and states on the continent of Talumia joined forces to establish strict rules for the use of the slave mark. Anyone and any organization. Innocents cannot be turned into slaves, otherwise they will be strangled by the joint forces of the major forces once they are discovered. All use of slave marks must be officially registered in detail, and if an unregistered slave mark is found, for whatever reason, the person who printed the slave mark will be immediately put to death.

After the joint announcement of the major forces. Slaves could only be obtained from prisoners of war, convicts sentenced to slavery, and those who sold themselves into slavery for reasons such as poverty.

It stands to reason that if Xu Yue wanted to use the slave mark, he should take the slave to the relevant agency in Talumia to register. However, the announcements of the major forces in the Talumia continent are only aimed at the intelligent creatures of the continent itself, if it is an abyssal creature, then as long as you have the ability to catch it, then you only need to bring back the items used to record the breath of slaves back to the relevant institutions after marking the other party with a slave mark. From this, it can also be seen that the continent of Talumia hates the creatures of the abyss.

Because the Abyssal Dwarves have sworn to the Abyssal Will by their real names that they will become Lothar's henchmen if they accept them. Therefore, Xu Yue could not mark these dwarves as slaves for the time being, because that would be tantamount to forcing the abyssal dwarves to break their oaths. However, this problem is easy to solve. As long as he can kill the mid-level demon named Lothar, then the abyssal dwarves' previous oath will naturally come to an end. The objects of allegiance are all hanging, and then joining the other party's hands is already just an empty word.

After figuring out the situation. Xu Yue began to set it up. This time it's a mid-level demon, and although I don't know how many of his subordinates the other party will bring, if you want to keep the Sun Gold Vein, you have to kill the other party. An intermediate demon, even if it is only a mid-level demon with the lowest strength among the intermediate demons, which is equivalent to a seventh-level professional, is definitely not easy to deal with.

The last time the battle puppet team used a seventh-level magic scroll to restrict the movement of the mid-level demon before launching a joint attack to kill the opponent. At that time, the situation was seen by the dwarves of the abyss hiding in the shadows, and the two burning demons who went to report the news had probably already told the dwarves what they knew here to the demon named Lothar, and it would be difficult to succeed if they wanted to use that kind of surprise means again.

For this. He had to go back to the Talemia continent and rush to the Magic Guild to purchase a batch of materials. And these materials worth millions of gold coins almost ran out of cash on him. But with these things. He was sure of the battle that followed.

This time, he went to the abyss, and after two days of busy work around the cave where the abyssal dwarves were found, he barely managed to complete all the arrangements. And according to the distance, the time for the mid-level demon named Lothar and the two Burning Demons to go back and forth is about that long. I'm afraid that if the other party is going to appear, it will be a matter of the next day or two.

Have the members of the escort team hide in the hidden pits that have been dug in advance, and then make a simple magic circle around these pits to hide their breath. As long as the demon named Lothar didn't deliberately look carefully, it would be almost impossible to find the hiding place of these golems.

This is more than a day, just when Xu Yue feels that the other party may not come today. Suddenly, three figures appeared in the distance and rushed towards him. Hiding in a relatively spacious cave, he used a remote telescope in his hand to see the shapes of the three figures. The advantage of this method is that there is not the slightest magic fluctuation in itself, and for creatures in the magical world who have become accustomed to relying on mental power and magic fluctuations to discover enemies, the telescope feels no different from a stone.

Among the three figures that ran behind, the two Burning Demons who had left before, and Xu Yue's confession to the leader of the dwarves determined the identities of the two Burning Demons. And the one at the top is nearly three meters tall. A demon with a very strong body but full of explosive power. The two scimitar-like demon horns and the two blades on the forearm that seemed to be inlaid proved the identity of this demon.

Seeing the other party, Xu Yue was already sure in his heart that this blade demon was probably Lord Lothar as the dwarven leader said. Although the demon race is not related to the strength and size of the body, it is true that the stronger the demon body is larger among the same type of demons. The height of the blade demon walking in front was close to three meters, and the coercion that could be felt from a distance was obviously the mark of a seventh-level demon.

Seeing that the other party was getting closer and closer to the entrance of the cave, his spirit gradually tightened. At this time, the puppet team apparently also saw the situation in the distance with the help of telescopes that were generally exposed to the ground. So I started to take action.

Seeing the Blade Demon and the two Burning Demons step into the trap with one foot, Xu Yue suddenly covered his hand with a fist-sized crystal ball, and the magic power on his body was frantically poured into the crystal ball as if he didn't want money.

At the same time, a huge magic array suddenly appeared on a circular ground with a diameter of more than two hundred meters around the dwarf cave, and the magic patterns with a diameter of more than two hundred meters were one ring after another, and all kinds of magic patterns that shone brightly with bright brilliance, illuminating the space of two hundred meters or so, and even the eyes could not be opened.

The Blade Demon and the two Burning Demons reacted the moment the mutation occurred. They stepped off the ground as if they were out of the range of the magic array, but no matter how fast the speed of the three demons was, they couldn't activate the magic array. In fact, when they saw the light of the magic array, the entire magic array had already been activated.

In this magic array, the three demons felt as if they were pressed by a mountain, and at the same time, the light emitted by the magic array shone on their bodies, causing bursts of green smoke to emit from their tough demon skin, as if they had been burned by flames. In fact, if it was really flames, even a fireball spell hitting a demon of their level wouldn't be able to cause them the slightest damage.

Because of their strength, the two Burning Demons were almost unable to move under the suppression of the magic array. However, the blade demon that was most likely Lothar was only a little sluggish, and it didn't seem to be too restricted by the magic array. But he also couldn't escape the range of the magic circle. I saw that he was just approaching the edge of the magic array, and suddenly a shimmering shroud with complex patterns shrouded the entire magic array upside down. When the blade demon saw this, he raised his arm and swung it fiercely at the shield with the natural blade in his hand, and a black giant blade several meters long slashed at the upside-down golden cover. But the golden cover only shook slightly, and there was no other reaction.

At the same time, the magic array seemed to be stimulated by the black giant blade, and suddenly released endless white light from the magic array under its feet, and the two bladed demons with relatively low strength suddenly let out a terrible howl under the illumination of these white lights. I saw that their skin, which was originally only slightly smoking, was now burning as if it was being burned by a raging fire, and the skin on their bodies quickly turned black. Even the flesh and blood on his body began to carbonize. Although he may not be able to die for a while, he will be illuminated by this endless white light. It was probably only a matter of time before the two Burning Demons were burned away.

The Blade Demon led by him had a much higher resistance to these white lights because of his strength, but there was still green smoke rising from his skin, and some places had become as if they were blackened by fireworks.

"Damn the power of light!, who is it? Could it be that the goddamn priests of Talumia have invaded the abyss?" the Blade Demon roared in the magic circle.

At this time, Xu Yue and the puppet team ambushed nearby had already run out of their hiding place quickly, and after they came out, they did not rush directly into the magic array, but under the command of Xu Yue, they embedded piles of magic crystals into some nodes of the magic array, and obtained the energy of the magic crystals. The power of the entire magic array has been increased by about thirty percent again, and even the blade demon has been suppressed.

Seeing that these puppets appeared in front of him were the masterminds of the sneak attack, this blade demon began to frantically attack the shield of the magic array, only to see that his arms waved dozens of times in an instant, and the dense black light blades slashed towards the shield like raindrops. Although the size of each black blade was much smaller than the previous one, the sheer number of them made the mask dim rapidly, and at the same time became more and more unstable.

"Prepare the Holy Water of Light, and pour all those holy waters on this Blade Demon's body!" Xu Yue hurriedly ordered after seeing this situation. After hearing this, the battle puppets next to them immediately pulled out large toy water guns from the cave where they were hiding. That's right, it's the same toy water gun on Earth.

The golems scattered in a circle, and with the water gun in their hands, they shot tiny jets of water that shimmered white into the Blade Demon. The blade demon didn't really care much at first. But when the first jet of water shot at him, he saw that his skin, which was only slightly smoking, suddenly seemed to be directly burned by flames, and immediately became charred and carbonized.

With a scream, the bladed demon no longer dared to stand in place to attack the protective shield of the magic array, only to see him fly away and retreat out of the reach of the water column. After glancing at the surrounding puppets and Xu Yue viciously, his body instantly disappeared in place, and he came to the other direction of the magic array and began to attack desperately.

Xu Yue had obviously expected this, he asked the battle puppets to divide into several groups to surround the entire magic array, and as long as the blade demon had the idea of continuing to attack the shield a little, he would immediately attack with the water gun in his hand. The magic circle he arranged was a magic circle used by Taramia in previous demon invasion wars to deal with the demon clan, and its principle was to use the power of the light element to directly suppress and damage the demons full of negative energy.

However, the biggest function of this magic array itself is only to suppress and trap the demons inside, and it is impossible to kill a seventh-level demon by relying on the white light released by the magic array itself. Moreover, this magic array is only a seventh-level magic array. Although it specifically weakens the attack power and strengthens the protection, making the shield of this magic circle difficult to break. However, if a level 7 demon continued to attack a certain point of the shield, it would also cause the magic array to collapse.

Under Xu Yue's arrangement, this blade demon could only use its rapid speed to attack the shield while moving in the magic array, but because it couldn't continue to attack a little bit to break through. So his attack just made the shield fluctuate a little bit. But even so, it may be seen that the light of the magic array is constantly weakening, although the speed is very slow, but after a long time, it is only a matter of time before the blade demon can get out of trouble.

Of course, Xu Yue's arrangement of means could not be the only one, I saw him standing outside the magic array, constantly taking out magic equipment to stimulate the attack magic above, and continuously attacking the blade demon.

The strength of this blade demon is level seven. If it was normal times, if he wanted to kill the other party with his sixth-level magic equipment with the magic stored inside, he might not even be able to break through the magic energy on the other party's body. After all, the strength of the sixth and seventh levels is a qualitative difference. But now the strength of this blade demon has been suppressed by the magic array by at least more than thirty percent, plus the weakening of the endless light elements around it. This blade demon finally became scarred under Xu Yue's constant attacks.

However, Xu Yue, who had a deep understanding of the demon clan's strong body and strong resilience, was not confused by the results in front of him, after activating all the magic items in Wan's hands to reach the sixth level of magic. Directly retreated more than ten meters backwards, and stood still after coming to a position. Then the battle puppets who had been around immediately came to him and gathered.

The Blade Demon obviously wouldn't let go of this good opportunity, and although his body had become scarred, he found a direction and attacked desperately. He could see that under his attack for so long, this magic array had almost reached its limit, and he could break it with just a few more attacks.

Obviously, Xu Yue also understood this situation, but he did not show the slightest expression of worry and fear on his face. I saw him press on a palm-sized small magic array connected to the entire large magic array on the ground with one hand, and after using mana to stimulate this small magic array, I saw that the entire large magic array suddenly burst out with unprecedented light, and a white pillar of light as thick as the magic array suddenly appeared on the magic array in an instant, and the dense white light that seemed to be about to form a substance enveloped the entire range of the magic array.

The white light appeared along with the roar of the demons in the magic array, and the two burning demons trapped inside were corroded by this level of light element, and their charred black bodies, which had already been burned, were almost like charcoal that had suddenly burned out, and instantly turned into a pile of charcoal and collapsed. Then under the illumination of those light elements, it turned into fly ash and dissipated.

The white pillar of light lasted less than three seconds before disappearing, and then the light of the magic array on the ground instantly disintegrated into a sky full of light and flew away. Due to the intense strong light, he couldn't see everything in the pillar of light, but the damage of his full force at the cost of disintegrating the entire magic array was terrifying.

But when the light dissipated, a figure suddenly appeared from front and rushed towards Xu Yue at lightning speed. It was the Blade Demon who was trapped inside before, but at this time, his body was already scarred, and even one of his arms was scorched under the explosive attack of the previous magic array. There is basically no intact skin on the body, and even a lot of flesh and blood have been carbonized.

From his almost burned stomach, you can even see the burnt part of the internal organs squirming slightly. Obviously, even the powerful demon was very seriously injured in such a way, just looking at the body of this blade demon was a little sluggish and staggering when running, it could be seen that his strength had decreased a lot under this kind of injury.

However, even if their strength was reduced due to serious injuries, the strength of the seventh-level demons was not something that their group of sixth-level guys could easily deal with. Without the suppression of the magic array, if they really faced each other, I am afraid that they would also be killed by this seriously injured blade demon.

Although the Blade Demon's movements were a little weak, the speed was actually very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he saw that the Blade Demon's raised right arm had already come to the top of Xu Yue's head. The self-forming blade on his arm was the hallmark of their clan, and even the blade in their hand could be cut compared to some tough monster weapons.

However, Xu Yue only raised his head slightly, and at this time, he was already holding the scabbard of this two-handed sword in his hand. I saw that he instantly injected his magic power into the core of a magic circle in the scabbard, and the next moment, a three-dimensional magic array instantly appeared from the scabbard, and shrouded Xu Yue's whole person. After the magic energy light blade emitted by the sharp blade on the blade demon's arm slashed into the light of this three-dimensional magic array, it actually made this three-dimensional magic array withstand it without even the slightest shaking. At the same time, Xu Yue's hand that was not holding the scabbard was not idle, and a magic scroll that had long been grasped in his hand was stimulated when the Blade Demon was rebounded into the air by the shock force of the three-dimensional magic array, and there was no place to borrow the slightest force. In an instant, four rays of light suddenly appeared out of thin air in the air, fixing the blade demon in the air.

"Ready! You only have three breaths of time, so you have to aim at the key point!" Xu Yue shouted after seeing this situation.

I saw that a special formation had already been formed next to the battle puppets, and the battle puppets suddenly instantly transmitted the energy of their core to the captain of the battle puppets through the connection of their arms. In the next moment, a sword-shaped light instantly flew out of the captain's hand of the battle puppet and flew towards the eyebrows of the trapped blade demon.
