Chapter 534: Difficult Determination
"Kill them all!" Captain Marshall's cold voice rang in the ears of the other three officers of the Burning Legion through the crystal mirror.
Vast numbers of demons continue to pour out of the seal. They walked past them like the three officers of the Burning Legion who didn't see them, rushing in all directions.
The demons in the Diablo temple are boiling.
It was almost only a moment for He Zhi and his party to feel the changes in the temple and the astonishing pressure brought to them by the swarming demons.
Originally, the flying swords of He Zhi and Luo Ying had always been able to keep all the demons at a distance, away from the positions where those demons could pose a threat to everyone.
But when the seal of the temple was unsealed and the dark power poured out unscrupulously, He Zhi and Luo Ying discovered that the power in the flying swords of the two of them was suddenly suppressed!
At the beginning, the little demons in the temple could not pose a threat to He Zhi at all, whether it was under He Zhi's Qian Mu Sword or Luo Ying's flying sword sword, those little demons were killed one by one.
But now, even if He Zhi's Qian Mu Sword exerts all his strength, if she wants to kill even the lowest inferior demon, she needs more than three swords! Not to mention Luo Sakura's flying sword, even under Luo Sakura's control, she needs at least four attacks to kill a demon.
Moreover, this is just the lowest level of demons! Demons of this level can be found everywhere throughout the temple. Almost every moment, at least seventy or eighty would pour out from all directions and rush in front of He Zhi and his party.
When He Zhi and Luo Ying were able to sword one by one, these little demons were powerless to pose a threat to He Zhi and Luo Ying. But now, these little demons alone were already able to rush in front of He Zhi and them!
These little demons appeared within the attack range of the two flying swords, and at the distance where they could reach He Zhi and his party, He Zhi and Luo Ying could only kill half of them at most.
As a result, Leng Shuang and Zhong Junze also had to join the battle. However, the combat power of the two of them is only a drop in the bucket in this battle!
"Major Jiang, we can't wait any longer. Let's open the field. Seeing more and more demons coming, He Zhi finally turned his head and said to Jiang Yueying, who had been standing by and watching.
Before setting off to the Temple of Diablo, He Zhi and the others naturally made a lot of preparations. Jiang Yueying also replenished a batch of equipment from Tyrell.
Of course, the equipment obtained from Tyrell naturally cannot be compared with the superb equipment that He Zhi and his party collected in the previous battles with Durrell and Mephisto. But in the end, there is still some use.
It's just that the quality of these equipment is not even as good as Duriel's shell, so it is natural that Jiang Yueying can only be used as a one-time consumable. Therefore, according to Jiang Yueying's original plan, these equipment should not be used at the beginning. These little monsters in front of them were handed over to He Zhi and Sun Luoying to deal with. It wasn't until Diablo's main body was summoned that she opened the realm and unfolded those one-off equipment for the final battle.
But now, in the face of the little monsters whose strength has skyrocketed, Jiang Yueying has to directly take out those one-time consumables right now.
Today's Jiang Yueying is quite skilled in using the props of the Diablo World to expand the field. So she unfolded the Noble Phantasm quite quickly.
Before Leng Shuang and Zhong Junze could show their weakness in front of those powerful demons, Jiang Yueying's Treasure Domain had already wrapped up all of them.
This time, among Jiang Yueying's equipment, there are a few items that are also good. In particular, there is a piece of equipment that has a 100% bonus to demon damage, which is a huge improvement for Ho Chi and Sakura after the field is expanded.
The damage bonus is 100%, and for He Zhi and Luo Ying, it's not just a simple doubling of damage. Because the damage bonus of the flying sword is not just a simple effect stack.
For example, if the original Qian Mu Sword killed a demon, it took two swords to cut through the outer shell of the demon, and the third sword could really give the demon fatal damage.
However, after receiving a 100% damage bonus, the Sword of the Humble Warrior only needs a single blow to directly penetrate the demon's hard shell. In this way, the Qian Mu Sword is equivalent to killing a demon that originally required three attacks to slash with just one sword.
This increase in strength has brought the combat power between He Zhi, Luo Ying, and those little demons back to the balance point. He Zhi and Luo Ying pushed the battle line back again, blocking all the demons from being able to attack Jiang Yueying.
"It's not enough. That's not enough. From the crystal mirror, Colonel Marshall could clearly see the change in strength on He Zhi's side.
Seeing that He Zhi and Jiang Yueying actually stabilized their positions again and pushed the demon back, Colonel Marshall couldn't help but show an irritated and angry look.
"Colonel, don't worry. The demons on our side are almost endless. No matter how powerful they are, they are still human after all. Even if it is a cultivation, the mana is not endless. Moreover, the use of the magic weapon flying sword is extremely expensive for Xiuzhen. Maybe there is something special about He Zhi's flying sword, so I can't mention it. But if Sun Luoying wants to maintain such a fighting intensity, she will definitely not be able to support it for long. Major Thomson, who knew the Oriental Monks best, was relieved at this time, and said with a smile to Major Marshall, "As long as we continue to maintain the offensive, they will be defeated sooner or later." ”
"I hope so. When Colonel Marshall heard this, his expression was also a little gloomy, and he nodded to Major Thomson, "Then let's continue to watch the play." After saying this, Colonel Marshall couldn't help frowning again. He suddenly realized that he had been paying attention to the battle on He Zhi's side, and seemed to have inadvertently ignored something.
"There are too many demons!" The battle between He Zhi and Luo Sakura lasted for about fifteen minutes, and Luo Sakura was already visibly tired.
"How about contacting your brother? We're already in the temple, so we should be in the same space as him. Although this temple has some signs of spatial distortion, it shouldn't be possible to completely separate us!" He Zhi once again drew his sword to kill a demon that was trying to sneak up on him from the side, and then asked Luo Sakura.
"I'm in contact. I've been in contact with him since the time I entered the temple. He was also always looking for our location. But we didn't have any way to locate us, so even if we did, I wouldn't know how to describe our location to him. Luo Ying said loudly to He Zhi.
"And now, you can always locate it now, right?" He Zhi said, stretching out his hand to point at the steady stream of demons in the distance.
Obviously, Ho Chi and Luo Sakura's current location is the center of the demon. They are like a giant magnet that attracts all the demons in the vicinity. If Sun Luoyang wanted to find them, he didn't need any positioning at all, he just needed to follow the demons! Those demons would naturally bring Sun Luoyang to He Zhi and them.
"Now I've told him. He'll come with all his might. Sun Luoying shouted again.
"That's good. Hearing this, He Zhi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help but smile a little, "Hehe! Those people from the Burning Legion probably want to drag us to death with fatigue battles." But well...... Hey, hey, hey!"
When He Zhi said the word "fatigue battle", Sun Luoying, Jiang Yueying and the others couldn't help but laugh.
With He Zhi's current situation, the fatigue battle can be said to be the least thing they are afraid of! When they were in the Demon Fortress before, He Zhi and the others turned all the potions they had collected before into full-effect recovery potions!
When he fought in Cui Fanke before, Zhong Junze escaped an almost fatal blow by relying on the effect of the full-effect recovery potion. At that time, he was almost stabbed in two in order to prevent the three leaders of the fallen councillors from escaping.
Almost as he was dying, Zhong Junze remembered that he still had a full-effect recovery potion on his body that He Zhi had given him earlier. Zhong Junze also completely held the idea of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor at that time, and poured the all-effect recovery medicine into his stomach in one go.
As a result, who would have thought that Zhong Junze, who was dying a second ago and might hang up at any time, would actually stand up alive after a second! Even Zhong Junze himself was taken aback by the effect of the full-effect recovery potion.
With Zhong Junze's attempt, Jiang Yueying and the others no longer had any doubts about the effect of the all-effect recovery potion. So, without hesitation, they asked He Zhi to synthesize all the potions they had worked so hard to collect into a full-effect recovery potion.
A full thirty-four bottles of large purple bottles are now lying quietly in He Zhi's bag. Moreover, Luo Ying, Jiang Yueying, Cold Frost and Zhong Junze each have two spare bottles on their bodies!
Luo Sakura had suffered some minor injuries in the previous battle, and at the same time, her mana was about to run out?What does it matter?! When Luo Sakura felt that she was about to lose her spirits, she directly took out a bottle of full-effect recovery potion and drank it in one gulp.
In the next second, after the cherry blossoms fell, they were already alive and well, and they were back to their full state!
"This ...... What the hell?!" Colonel Marshall's eyes widened as he watched as if she had come back to life as if she had drunk a bottle of purple potion from the bottle.
This kind of purple potion, even they, the reincarnations of the Burning Legion, have never seen it before! Colonel Marshall couldn't even be sure if the potion that Sakura had just drunk was the output of this world!
"This ......," Major Thomson was equally dumbfounded.
Seeing Luo Sakura's action of taking the potion without hesitation just now, even a fool knew that with a potion like the one just now, Luo Sakura must have more than one bottle in their hands!
The idea of trying to kill He Zhi and them alive with a war of attrition collapsed at this moment.
"Colonel, what now?" several majors simultaneously turned their gazes to Colonel Marshall in the crystal mirror.
Colonel Marshall, on the other hand, had a gloomy face and could not make up his mind.
For the four officers of the Burning Legion, their plan to kill He Zhi by a safe method was actually bankrupt. If they want to continue General Depp's plan and kill He Zhi and his party now, there is only one way: they are personally involved in this battle!
However, Colonel Marshall and their personal participation in the battle to strangle He Zhi will lead to a new problem - that is Sun Luoyang!
The reason why Sun Luoyang has not been able to meet Luo Ying and them until now is not because Sun Luoyang doesn't want to meet with He Zhi, but because Sun Luoyang was dragged by Major General Marshall!
In this temple of Diablo, Colonel Marshall took advantage of the home advantage to set up a huge magic array. It was the effect of this magic array that made Sun Luoyang only keep circling in the temple, with no way to distinguish the direction, let alone meet his companions.
However, the magic array itself was unable to function on its own. It requires at least two reincarnators to keep casting spells in the magic circle to maintain the state of the circle. Moreover, the smaller the number of people responsible for maintaining the magic array, the weaker the power of the magic array itself will be.
If only the minimum two reincarnators were left to maintain the magic circle, Colonel Marshall could not guarantee how long Sun Luoyang would be able to trap Sun Luoyang in the magic circle.
In other words, if Colonel Marshall decides to take the reincarnation into action and fight He Zhi and them, then he will have to face the danger of Sun Luoyang getting out of trouble. This is tantamount to Colonel Marshall, and they are competing for time with Sun Luoyang. Let's see if they kill He Zhi and his party first, or Sun Luoyang will get out of trouble first and join He Zhi and them!
If the situation becomes the latter, it will mean that the plans of the Burning Legion will collapse completely. Not only is it impossible for them to complete the task of killing Sun Luoying and his party, but it is even impossible to forcibly promote Sun Luoying to lieutenant!
The huge risk made Colonel Marshall, who had always been decisive, hesitate. Still, he knew he couldn't hesitate for long. Because the power of the temple seal is not endless.
Now the number of monsters pouring out of the seal has begun to slowly decrease. After a while, the power of the probable seal will be exhausted. And He Zhi, the speed at which they killed the demons did not slow down in the slightest.
At this rate, Colonel Marshall could feel that if they had ten or twenty bottles of potion like the one just now, maybe they could really slaughter all the demons in the temple!
At that time, Diablo will be summoned! That will not only affect the plan to deal with the Predator Legion, but even the Burning Legion's plan to master this mission world will be greatly affected! This responsibility is something that Colonel Marshall cannot bear
