Who says becoming a Demon Lord means blindly following a trope and being invincible all the way? Who says a Demon Lord's harem must consist of a large number of girls, or even include a cross-d...
"roar!"
When foreign enemies invaded, the gargoyles guarding the ruins of the Giant City swarmed out, blotting out the sky and roaring like wild beasts.
Winter had raged for four months, but in that instant, the ice and snow began to melt, lava surged, and tens of thousands of fiery cracks appeared on the graphite-like ground, possessing a magical power to burn people to ashes.
"boom!"
A phantom giant hammer, with all its might, smashed out with a thunderous roar and a shockwave.
Instantly, the hammer shattered the void, and hundreds of gargoyles were blown into crystal fragments, which were then swallowed up by the molten lava gushing from the ground.
But this did not deter the gargoyles in the slightest; on the contrary, it activated their ferocity. Their bat wings whipped up a gale, and their horns on their heads were like blades as they viciously pounced on the three extraordinary beings.
"Lord Haddad, don't provoke them. Gargoyles are immortal, and physical attacks are useless against them."
An elegant woman in a fine robe reminded him; her eyes were like autumn water, her figure slender, and a faint sorrow lingered between her brows.
Beside her stood a burly man, shirtless, with well-developed muscles and a ruddy chest like an iron plate, instantly giving the impression of a "meat shield."
"Your Highness, rest assured, they are merely low-level demons that have been corrupted. They will have enough time to recover and we will be able to find a way to break the curse."
Haddad laughed loudly, his energy activated, and he could freely unleash his giant secret technique.
He shattered the void with overwhelming momentum, transforming into a crimson chariot, dragging surging blood and energy, smashing through the gargoyles along the way.
Each punch and kick could unleash a violent gust of wind, like a tiger among sheep, slaughtering a large group of gargoyles into utter defeat.
Seeing this, Kana shook her head and followed helplessly. With a wave of her staff, hundreds of light orbs the size of washbasins landed in the gargoyle army and exploded.
Haddad, an extraordinary member of the Glenn family and the uncle of the current duke, is over a hundred years old and a prominent figure in the duchy.
The woman on the other side, Kana, is a bishop sent by the Harvest Divine Court to provide support. Although she is over fifty years old, she is as young and lovely as a girl, which is considered young among the extraordinary beings.
The silent third party, an ancestor of the Byakuran family, a paladin wearing a silver crown, wielded a sword that flashed with a cross-shaped slash a hundred meters long and wide, imbued with the light attribute of burning monsters. Ironically, he was the most efficient at killing gargoyles.
Without a doubt, he is also an extraordinary being, an awakened Sequence Tree, and related to the sword element.
At the same time, he also has another identity: the strongest knight recognized by the three duchies, and the master of the genius swordsman Emil.
The extraordinary being, bathed in golden fire, possesses all attributes several times greater than a half-step gold-level being.
Even those pseudo-gold level cultivators who forcefully break through and survive by chance possess ten times the combat power of a half-step gold level cultivator.
Once you become an extraordinary being, various powerful forces will extend olive branches to you, granting you all sorts of privileges, power, wealth, status, and so on. You can rise to the top in one step.
"Bang! Bang!"
A series of attacks forced the gargoyles to retreat, and even if they could revive, they would need a cooldown period.
This gave the three superhumans the opportunity to launch a surprise attack, blasting open the outer defenses of the Giant City ruins and forcibly breaking through.
Previously, progress was slow due to the standoff with an enemy who was also an extraordinary being.
But now, the enemy has inexplicably retreated. Intelligence from the rear indicates that Duke Vayne personally intervened, turning an inside agent to break through the defensive array of the Fountain of Life, which forced the enemy to return to their base.
“The two brats from the Prome family just slunk away like that, cowards.”
Haddad laughed loudly, his figure like a giant bear, his blood energy soaring into the sky, as he faced the gargoyle and activated a secret technique.
Behind them, space was ripped open by extraordinary power, and the River of Time flowed back. Three phantoms, as if crossing the boundary between reality and illusion, blasted thousands of gargoyles to pieces!
A massive crocodile, covered in intricately patterned scales and with flowing, sharp blades along its back, opens its gaping maw. When its innate ability is activated, it can devour hundreds of gargoyles.
A horned orc with six arms unleashed a punch that exploded outwards like a cannonball, blasting apart a large number of gargoyles.
The third body was as tall as a small mountain, shaped like a gorilla, and smashed everything in its path.
Prehistoric crocodiles, horned beastmen, and Iron-blooded giants.
Since the Yellow Heaven shattered and merged into the River of Time, a dazzling golden path was born, where extraordinary beings mastered various means to break common sense.
It can even transmit a segment of footage from downstream to upstream, predicting the future.
"Yes, soon we will be able to penetrate to the deepest part of the ruins. According to the oracle, there are three colossus weapons hidden inside."
Kana said, chanting a spell to set up a layer of surveillance traps around the perimeter to prevent outsiders from spying on them.
The closer you get to the final stage, the more careful you need to be.
The three men were old and experienced, and naturally knew that there were other forces that collected the Colossus weapons besides themselves.
Such as the dark magicians hiding underground, the remnants of the demon race who defected from the Central Plains to the North, and the nobles who outwardly support but secretly form cliques to rebel against the duchy.
Fortunately, the interests of the three parties had already been divided up according to the previous agreement, so there was no need to worry about internal troubles.
"Damn it, are we just supposed to watch them take the Colossus?!"
Beneath the towering stone tablet, a hidden superhuman watched the three enter the ruins, his face grim.
"There is still a chance. We are hiding in the shadows. If we set up an ambush before they come out, we may have a chance to take the Colossus."
The mage on the side, after some deliberation, said...
Both were powerful figures in Constantinople, and the Colossus, capable of turning the tide of battle, was more crucial than the Fountain of Life.
The idea that wielding the colossus would truly allow one to dominate the North was shared by all the major powers.
