417 Victory in the first battle! Eisner's plan!

……

"Broken Moon"!

But seeing Matthew swinging the shovel skillfully, under the cold rising and falling, Osetro was not allowed to react, and the sharp murder weapon had already cut down his neck!

Burst!

The shovel sliced through Ocedro's chest like clay, and then shattered his heart with incredible precision!

That moment.

A large amount of blood rushed onto Matthew's body and face.

He could feel a tyrannical and manic aura emanating from the Abyss Mage's body.

But it only lasted a few seconds.

Those breaths were gone—

Because Matthew had already unloaded Osedro with a shovel!

……

"Hint: You succeeded in killing the legendary Abyss Mage Osadero, which had the following profound effects—

7. You can transform into a regular demon without being detected (customizable gender, height, size...... )」

……

Matthew just glanced at the data bar.

He withdrew his gaze.

It wasn't difficult for him to choose one of the three domains -

Both ether and wisdom are quite advanced realms, and Ocedero, a demon mage, can have many attainments in this field?

It's better to choose one that the other party is familiar with.

The result was similar to what Matthew expected-

Ocedero's exploration of the Abyssal Realm is at the level of a veteran.

Matthew is tantamount to picking up a big bargain!

Don't say anything else.

A 35% damage reduction is already perverted!

"It's good that Osedro can't open up the field at a critical moment, otherwise he might have to toss for a while!"

Matthew glanced at the demon army that was hurrying towards this place, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Legendary mages are also mages.

As long as it's a mage.

If you eat a spell that doesn't work, your life will be in danger!

It's not that mages don't have the ability to protect themselves other than spells.

It's because the spell is usually too easy to use.

At the critical moment, the conditioned reflex will use the spell, and then under the silence of the spell invalidation enchantment, they will despair and find that they are doing useless work, and then the collapse of the mind and the annihilation of the body will happen at about the same time.

In fact.

A well-trained legendary mage wouldn't have been killed by Matthew like Ocedro.

For example, in the Seven Saints Alliance.

Most Legendary Mages have a plan for dealing with spell nullification enchantments.

In addition to "spell ability", create unaffected "divine spells", "quasi-spells", "simulated magic arts" and other opportunistic methods.

The most common way to deal with this is to open up the realm!

As everyone knows.

No matter what the field, big or small, deep or shallow.

At the moment when the realm opened.

will produce an unavoidable force of resistance.

This resistance is often the key to the game between the Legendary Mage and the Legendary Wanderer.

Even when the top legendary mages are in a forbidden state, they will calmly predict the trajectory of the wanderer's movements, so as to escape through the realm.

Of course.

Even the top-level wanderers were able to use their body skills to deceive the legendary mage at the moment when he opened the realm.

Then use this opportunity to successfully slay the mages in the realm!

At all costs.

This kind of game has a back and forth.

And it is relatively rare for someone like Osedro to die so simply.

The reason for this.

Or is it because Matthew is playing at home and taking a big advantage -

Osadero, like the other demons, was punished by the will of the material plane.

His field was suppressed.

It's not that it can't be opened.

It's a few seconds slower than usual!

This is also the reason why he was reluctant to show his face before.

The other party has been careful enough.

Pity.

"I've found a flaw......

Between thoughts.

A small silver-blue dot of light suddenly flew up on Ocedro's corpse.

The light point castration is extremely fast.

In the blink of an eye, it will flash to a hundred meters away.

However, Matthew didn't leave for a long time after killing people, and what he was waiting for was this moment-

"Ability: Soul Cage"!

Whoosh.

The point of light went and returned, and was directly grasped by Matthew in the palm of his hand!

Use it as a base point.

Between Matthew's half-plane and the material realm, a void space emerges.

Ocedro's soul is imprisoned in this space!

"No ——!"

Ocedro's soul let out a miserable wail.

However, in an instant, he scolded:

"You captured me, and you can't run away yourself!"

Matthew listened to it well.

He glanced at the demons who were rapidly approaching.

Then the ability "Above the Dragon" was activated!

Call!

Silently.

The deterrent power beyond the dragon's power shocked the demons who came to the rescue.

Everyone didn't feel that their feet were weak, some knelt on the ground, and some even stepped back.

A few seconds later.

A shadowy figure quickly took shape beside Matthew.

That's the soldier who has just been banished to the abyss!

Naturally, ordinary people can't go and return so quickly.

But as a blade with legendary resistance, Ah Bing is no longer what it used to be.

Want to trap them in the abyss with a banishment spell.

At least legendary spells!

The spell trap that Oscedro had just cast was clearly not capable of reaching this power.

The next moment.

In full view of the demons.

Matthew beckoned to Bing:

"Hitchhike."

Necromancy!

The two became one in an instant.

Followed by.

After merging, Matthew picked up Ocedro's body and disappeared in place with a pop.

Shadow!

Shadow!

Shadow!

On the battlefield.

Matthew kept jumping between the shadows, and soon, he was back on top of the cemetery!

At this time, many demons had already climbed to the lowest level of the cemetery.

Ali is leading the elite undead in their expulsion.

Matthew emerged from Bing's body.

Then, without looking back, he ran to the top floor with Osadero's body in his arms.

It didn't take long.

Matthew carried the corpse into the small black room in a hurry.

Outside the house.

Sif's expression had just improved, and her expression became a little dazed.

in the room.

Matthew soaked Osedero's body in a jar filled with dark oil.

A simple seal followed.

After that.

He took out another handful of heartstones as consumables for the soul cage!

……

"Hint: You've consumed a few Heartstones, so choose the specific operation you did with the imprisoned soul 'O'Setero'—

1. Steal experience

2. Stealing lives

3. Insulting will

4. Soul Torture"

……

Matthew didn't make a choice alone.

Instead, tick off all the options -

"I want them all!"

And so.

In a cage of souls made of negative energy.

The wails of the former legendary mages of the abyss continued.

Matthew goes out and calls for Simphora, the king of the banshees.

Let her help torture Ocedro's soul.

I'm starting to take care of the rest.

In order to assassinate Osedro, Matthew had previously opened the cemetery to the top of the first echelon of the demon army.

And the ground clearance is only about 20 meters.

Most demons can't fly, but their jumping abilities are amazing.

Matthew's speed of taking out Ocede Road was already very fast, and it could be described as a knife and a knife, but in such a short time, the number of demons who jumped to the lowest level of the cemetery had exceeded 3,000!

Only half of them are the Brezu Demons, and the remaining half are the Great Demon Overseers of the three legions and the personal guards they lead!

The negativity barrier of the cemetery resisted only for a short moment before it was shattered.

Then they burned and smashed in the cemetery.

Fortunately, Ali had expected it and made a series of resistance measures, but at present, he still effectively suppressed the demons at the lowest and penultimate levels, and did not let them attack to higher places.

"They're sabotaging the Negative Energy Power Furnace!"

Seeing Matthew coming out of the small dark room, Ali immediately floated over to report.

Matthew nodded:

"Raise the height."

Ali reminded:

"The energy reserve of the power furnace is insufficient, and after this upgrade, I am afraid it will be difficult to maintain hovering, so I can only find a place to come."

Matthew thought for a moment:

"Return to the original position and land."

"Give me the whip."

"I'll deal with these demons!"

Ali was ordered to take control of the cemetery.

Not much.

The cemetery slowly rose, and the mountain began to move farther and farther away from them amid the curses of a large number of demons on the ground.

Many demons jumped up like crazy, trying to seize this last chance, but unfortunately only a few managed to land.

Most of the demons attracted by the cemetery could only stand on the ground and stare dryly.

Above the cemetery.

With the graveyard weapon "Ursul's Rebuke" in hand, Matthew made his way down the steps.

He is the master of the cemetery.

This graveyard weapon can only be used at its best in the hands of the Graveyard Master!

But see Matthew leisurely waving the long whip in his hand.

Every time you swing out.

It's as if they have traveled through time and space, and they have appeared directly beside the demons at the bottom!

Bang Bang Bang!

The long whip burning with the fire of death stretched 50 meters in one breath, binding all the demons in the vicinity, and then pulled it down hard!

"Ah......h

Screams rang out in mid-air.

The demons who had remained where they were, still blowing their beards and glaring at the cemetery, looked in amazement at their companions who had fallen overhead—

Puff puff!

More than a dozen demons fell into the crowd and fell to the ground, knocking down a large area.

A few seconds later.

More than a dozen demons fell from the edge of the mountain.

Their situation is even worse than that of the First Demon, because the cemetery mountain is constantly rising in height!

That's it.

With every flick of Matthew's long whip, he can send away a large number of demons who have ascended to the cemetery.

Further back.

The higher the mortality rate of the demon that is dropped.

Some clever demons sensed that something was wrong and took the initiative to choose to jump.

Matthew doesn't stand in the way.

Soon.

The rest of the demons did the same.

Ten minutes later.

Thanks to the efforts of Matthew and the other undead, the Graveyard Barrier was restored, and all the invading demons were either sent to the surface or sent to the Necromantic Transformation Pool.

Cemetery.

Tranquility restored!

"It's time to turn the tide on the battlefield."

Matthew stood at the edge of the lowest level of the cemetery, overlooking the chaotic battlefield below—

A large number of Brezu demons were trapped in the trench belt, and the cannon fodder army led by Argus was losing ground one after another.

If it weren't for Sive's infernal flames blocking the way of the cavalry demons, the frontal battlefield would have been shattered by this time!

And the flanks.

Li Rick led his troops to attack the western flank of the Second Army, a move that attracted a lot of firepower to the frontal battlefield.

Matthew observed that the Second Legion was gathering forces to concentrate on eliminating the skeletal axemen cutting through the flanks.

Li Ruik fought and retreated, and it seemed that he was fine at the moment, but the time had dragged on for a long time, and when the regrouped cavalry demons came around from the Flowing Fire Skycanopy, they were likely to face great risks.

On the right flank, part of the Fourth Army was engaged in a battle with the forces stationed in the forest.

The demons are attacking with ferocity.

They rushed up with the slings of the oak guards.

Some of the demons have now entered the woods.

The centaurs were also left to fight and retreat - apart from the Woods Guard, the Sanctuary of Life lacked units capable of confronting the demonic hordes.

Fortunately, the woods themselves are the best barriers.

While the demons were subjected to the will of the material realm, they did not dare to rashly enter the ritual field of the level of the Life Sanctuary.

So most of the demons are heading along the edge of the woods.

They didn't dare to go too deep.

But even so.

Many demons will kick the tree on the way when they pass by!

Matthew has a full view of these scenes.

The Fourth Regiment wanted to cut off the woods from the frontal battlefield, and at the same time try to see if there was any possibility of following the road to the back of the cemetery.

They shouldn't be so mad as to attack the walls of Rolling Stone.

The course of action of the Second Army Corps indicated similar strategic intentions.

Only the Central Third Legion, which was first blocked by the flames of hell and most of its energy by the cemetery and Xiao Boil, now seemed extremely chaotic.

"The actions of the Second and Fourth Legions are clearly proceeding according to Osedero's plan."

"They shouldn't know about Ocedro's death yet!"

"The Third Legion is in chaos like that, and a few of them are the only ones who know!"

A smile tugged at the corners of Matthew's mouth.

It just so happened to be at this time.

Matthew's cry for help from Xiao Boiling also sounded in his heart:

"Master?"

"You said you were going to fight together, why did you run away?"

"I'm still being beaten!"

Matthew looked down.

On the frontal battlefield, due to the loss of the main target cemetery, the demons of the Third Legion vented all their anger on the lonely Xiao Fei.

The latter has now activated the spell of defending against attack.

But even so.

He looked like he had also been beaten with a blue nose and swollen face—

The demons have also learned well.

Barrels of strange slime poured on Xiao Boil's body, although they were not as corrosive as Eisner's brain, and they also caused some damage to Philorius's metal armor.

From the point of view of the situation.

Xiao Boiling was indeed beaten not lightly.

"Prepare to fight back......

Matthew said this from the bottom of his heart.

He then took Osadero's body out of the little dark room, not caring about the dark oil that had been sprinkled all over the ground.

Matthew grabbed the corpse directly, and drove the legendary flying technique to quickly sweep over the battlefield.

"Stupid demons, your boss Osidero has been killed by me."

"All the violators will face the same fate as him!"

"Don't think that death is the end, your bodies and souls will be enslaved by me, and you will be my slaves forever!"

Matthew was slapping Osadero's corpse with Ursul's scolding.

Meanwhile.

He also sent some of the harsh images of Osedero's soul under torture from the Banshee King.

Matthew uses tricks to cast these images on top of the demon army.

It immediately caused a large uproar!

Several of the Archdemon Overseers jumped out:

"He's lying!"

"It is impossible for the Abyss Sage to die at his hands!"

Matthew didn't pay any attention to these guys.

He cautiously leaped over the heads of the demon army, revealing Osadero's corpse in front of them.

Meanwhile.

The Blade of Grace, which had been instructed by Matthew, also took action.

Ah Bing set his sights on the archdemon overseers who jumped out to refute the rumors.

A few minutes later.

The demons lost their chance to hold on to the scene.

Because their heads have fallen quietly in the chaos!

In fact.

Even if there is no soldier to make a move.

The information of Ocedro's death is also impossible to hide.

All demons could sense the subtle changes in the ritual field of the Holy Forge Soldier.

They can clearly feel that they are weakening.

And the source of it all.

It's just a problem with the manager!

What's more, Matthew just carried Ocedro's corpse and soared above their heads.

Except for a few Abyss Mages who were bold but were quickly resolved.

Ocedero himself did not come out to refute the other side's claims.

That's enough to say it all!

The morale of the demon army quickly became extremely low.

Putting aside the backlash in the Saint Forge Ritual Field.

One of the drawbacks of Oscedro's long-standing penchant for micro-manipulation is that he loses his control, and the arrangement of the demonic army loses its order.

Normally.

It is impossible for the army of the Abyss to be arranged so neatly and densely.

All this was not a problem when Osedro was there, but a plus.

But once Osedro died.

When chaos begins to erupt.

The hidden danger of the dense phalanx of the demon army and quickly erupted-

The demons, demoralized and confused, began to push each other.

Some people want to ask for a certificate, some want to leave the battlefield temporarily, and some want to continue attacking the cemetery!

There was a clear division within the three major army corps of the first echelon -

The manic Brezu only knows how to continue the boss's previous instructions and constantly launch attacks;

The Archdemon group, led by the Archdemon Overseers, wants to maintain order and control the situation, and then take over the power void left by Osedero's death;

And the cavalry demon ......

They have already run back to the second echelon under the leadership of the Twin Cavalry Demons!

"Run away!"

Matthew was slightly surprised, these two brothers still have a good perception of the crisis, and they can always get out of danger!

But in this situation.

Matthew naturally can't target this kind of individual who is good at seeing the wind and steering the rudder.

Present.

He began to mobilize troops to take advantage of the chaos to counterattack-

On the west flank, the magic ships of the Southern Mage Legion were all activated, and the two skeleton sword axe teams that Li Ruik had originally used as a reserve were also pressed on all fronts.

The Brezu Demon was deep in the frontal battlefield, the cavalry demons all ran away, and only some of the Great Demons and other demons were left in the Second Legion who were still resisting.

However, in Li Rick's indomitable rush to kill a few times.

A few rounds later.

The remaining demons of the Second Legion also scattered and fled.

The demons on the east flank were even more embarrassed.

They were originally going to go around the back, but who knew that the coach around them was gone!

The moment Matthew gave the order to fight back.

Rhaeggar's fire bats and cavalry were already eyeing them.

Don't look at Matthew's reluctance to let them join the battlefield, mainly because each of Rhaeggar's soldiers is very expensive, and they are not as cheap and durable as their own undead.

It's a real war.

The combat effectiveness of the Fire Batmen and Hellhorsemen is extremely impressive.

They cooperated with the forest guards and centaurs who rushed out of the woods, and it didn't take long for the more than 3,000 demons to be killed and unarmoured.

Seeing that the situation was not right, many demons began to flee all the way north.

However, this situation was the most pleasant for the cavalry to see.

They chased all the way along the edge of the forest and won a lot of battles!

As for the frontal battlefield.

Xiao Boil, who had been beaten for a long time, sounded the horn of the counterattack with a powerful counterattack storm.

Matthew personally led the cemetery elite to press on the whole army.

It didn't take long.

They exterminated a large number of Brezu demons and some demons who failed to withdraw from the battlefield in time.

"Whew!"

Where Matthew and Xiao Boiling swept over, the demon corpse lay down.

The Twilight Dragon followed, spewing out fan-shaped breaths from time to time.

It didn't take long.

In the area hit by the breath, the demons stumbled up again.

Not long after they got up, they were pulled into the line by Argus, who was busy catching strong men-

His cannon fodder unit was almost depleted in the battle with the Brezu Demons.

But it doesn't matter.

The finishing touches are not yet complete.

The new cannon fodder is already in place.

By the time the Dragon of Twilight transforms all the corpses into cannon fodder undead, Argus's forces will be several times stronger than before!

That's it.

On the battlefield filled with frost, fire, and negative energy, the sound of fighting gradually became quiet.

Matthew stood in mid-air a kilometer north of the trench belt and looked north.

The second and third echelons of the Abyss Army have now retreated to the vicinity of the ruins of the North Trade Post.

And in this withdrawal.

There are a lot of demons whose lives are on the way.

It was as if the souls of the war dead were wailing and weeping, and a thick fog slowly rose from the battlefield.

The fog divided the necropolis and the Abyssal army on either side.

All was silent again.

Matthew looked at the corpse-strewn front, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

He knew that the Abyssal Army couldn't give up.

But no matter what.

He's at least the first step in protecting Rolling Stone

Win the first battle!

……

Night falls.

In the cage of the soul.

Osetrolo is still pleading:

"Stop fighting, don't fight!"

"I'm willing to cooperate with all your actions!"

"Please, let me go!"

Not far away.

Matthew waved his hand and stopped the Banshee King's torment.

"I don't really want to torture you."

"I don't have any problem with you personally."

"It's just that a friend of mine told me that you abyss mages have a trick of golden cicadas shedding their shells, even if their souls are imprisoned, they have a chance to escape."

"And the only way to avoid that is to keep whipping up, am I right?"

Ocedro's breath was suffocating.

Then he said with great difficulty:

"There is indeed that kind of spell in the abyss, but my soul strength is not strong enough to do that."

"You should be able to feel that I'm so weak now that I can't even maintain my soul form, let alone run away!"

"Neither you torture me nor kill me will do anything in this war."

"In the abyss, the will of the Mother Body is above all else, and the Mother Abyss has made us attack Rolling Stone, even if I die, the demons will elect a new leader to take my place, and then continue to invade your territory."

"On the contrary, as long as I live, I will be able to provide you with information from the abyss."

"You're smart, I'm not stupid, we're all mages, I know how to keep myself alive, believe me, I won't be stupid."

He looked at Matthew with pleading eyes.

Matthew was unmoved.

He motioned for Simphora to whip Osedro off.

Then he spoke:

"You don't have a bargaining chip with me."

"My question is only asked once."

"If you don't answer, you're dead!"

"Now, I wonder what Eisner's real goal is?"

Matthew's gaze was like a torch, locking onto Osedero's spirit like a falcon.

Osedro replied in a low voice:

"Rolling Stones, Deep Blue Harbor, Jewel Bay, Lion City...... There are also some city-states in the north. ”

Matthew sneered:

"That's not what I asked, you just said I'm smart, but you're not stupid—

Then you're pretending to be crazy and stupid.

I'll give you one last chance -

What exactly is Eisner's real goal!? ”

He didn't believe that Abyssal Lord Eisner was a complete lunatic.

In the context of the high probability that the mages will return in a month.

The other party not only let the demons under his own will pour out, but also landed in the material world with his true body-

It's a heavy price.

There must be a strategic goal behind it that is worthy enough to match it.

These days.

Matthew had been wondering about it.

He hopes to get an answer from Osetero.

Osidero was silent for a long time.

Half a day.

"Just say it, and I'll die."

He said in a very firm tone:

"All I can tell you is that he does have a goal that he is very eager to achieve......"

"Although his body is divided into 100 million parts, most of them are tricks to hide people's ears."

"His real form went to a location, a location I didn't mention earlier......"

That moment.

A flash of lightning flashed through Matthew's mind:

"Jade Garden?"

He couldn't help but blurt out.

Ocedro's spirit suddenly trembled violently!

……
