Chapter 289 The Situation of Defeat



These sudden appearance of powerful enemies caught Zhang Bei and his two companions off guard.

The demon was very fast. In just one minute, he could bring in eight or nine demons. Zhang Bei and the other two were immediately entangled by these enemies and had no ability to escape to deal with the culprit.

Fortunately, the seven people fighting outside quickly noticed the changes inside the protective shield and immediately returned to provide support as quickly as possible.

At this time, there were already dozens of enemies inside the protective shield, and the number was still growing.

Zhang Bei assessed the current situation and decisively shouted, "Gather! Everyone, come to my side!"

Everyone quickly gathered together and formed a circle around Gu Shi and Gu Mu.

After everyone gathered, Zhang Bei took two steps back. A long, silver-colored object appeared in his hand that was not holding the sword. Then, he threw it forward fiercely.

boom--!

A shocking explosion sounded, and everyone's eardrums were hurt. The earth also shook twice, raising a cloud of dust.

The monsters and demons that originally surrounded them turned into scattered pieces in an instant. Only a few with particularly tenacious vitality still had a breath of life left, and their tattered bodies were lying on the ground and squirming.

If Zhang Bei hadn't been carrying special defensive gear, they would have been seriously injured by now.

Without having time to express their shock at the scene before them, the team members who had formed a circle immediately took action.

The original protective shield had been completely shattered by the shocking blow just now, and a new one had to be put in place quickly, and those enemies who were still breathing also had to be killed quickly.

After the smoke and dust that covered the sky settled, they could clearly see that a deep pit had appeared at the landing point of the object Zhang Bei had thrown, and the originally lush vegetation around it had turned into flying smoke.

Logically speaking, after this shock, the demons would have to think twice about whether to cause them trouble again, but perhaps because the attraction of the ancient tree was too strong, new enemies soon rushed towards them one after another.

"Hu, hu, hu..." Zhang Bei was breathing heavily, his tight clothes were already soaked with sweat.

After a long period of high-intensity fighting, Zhang Bei's body was extremely tired, and his teammates around him were in a similar state.

Taking out another silver-gray column, Zhang Bei glanced at Gu Shi, who lay motionless behind him, and thought silently: This is the last one, and I don't know how much longer it can last...

Although many thoughts were surging in his mind, Zhang Bei did not hesitate at all and threw the thing out neatly.

The familiar sound of explosion was heard, and everyone was already very familiar with the following procedures, so they all took action immediately.

It’s a pity that their luck was not good this time. They had just cleared out one round of demons when a new and powerful demon appeared immediately.

The two layers of protective shield that had just been set up were quickly destroyed, and before everyone had time to disperse, they were forced to gather again around the ancient tree.

Looking at the group of dying humans in front of him, the demon raised a smug and cruel smile on his face. Pitch-black flames ignited from his side, quickly trapping Zhang Bei and the others in the center.

It's not that no one has tried to break out, but this flame is so special that even cold weapons can become its fuel. If that team member hadn't thrown it away quickly, he himself might have been burned to ashes.

What's more, even if they could successfully break through, Gu Shi and Gu Mu would not be able to move.

Seeing the flames getting closer and closer, even though Zhang Bei and his men tried their best, they couldn't find a way to deal with it. They could only rely on the defensive spiritual weapons provided by the system to barely resist it.

Seeing that his flames were not exerting their due strength, the demon waved his hand, and the flames burned even more vigorously. At the same time, the group of subordinates following him also rushed up.

This demon seemed quite powerful, so it didn't mind playing some cat and mouse tricks with Zhang Bei and the others, and enjoying their desperate expressions.

In order to prevent other demons from snatching its spoils, it directly expanded the range of the flames to cover the entire mountain forest, and burned all the other demons that did not belong to its forces into ashes without any mercy.

Seeing this scene, one team member murmured unconsciously: "This momentum is completely different from the demons we encountered before..."

The strength of the two is not at the same level at all.

Zhang Bei warned sharply: "Don't be distracted!"

"yes!"

The man, who was a little dazed, immediately came to his senses after receiving the order from the captain and continued to fight.

The current situation is that Zhang Bei and his men are trapped in a safe space constructed by a defensive spiritual weapon. Outside is a blazing black flame, and a large number of enemies are gathered in the flame.

There is also a powerful demon watching closely.

Zhang Bei and his team were in a very unfavorable situation, but no one wanted to give up.

Even though they couldn't leave the safe zone, even though everyone could see that this was just a drop in the bucket, they were still trying their best to kill the enemies outside to buy more time for Gu Shi.

As if tired of watching their dying struggles, the demon that had been standing nearby moved.

It walked over slowly as if taking a stroll, and the monsters around it respectfully made way for it.

The unusually tall demon stretched out his hand and gently pressed it on the barrier created by the spiritual weapon. Then a pitch-black flame ignited, and the hand began to gradually exert force.

Zhang Bei could hear a slight crackling sound ringing in his ears. He quickly lowered his head to look at the defensive spiritual weapon hanging on his wrist, and sure enough, an inconspicuous crack had appeared on it.

Soon, along with the movements of the demon outside, the cracks on the spiritual weapon continued to expand.

In order to stop it, everyone in the safe zone took action, but unfortunately their attacks did not have any effect on it.

Not long after, an extremely crisp snapping sound was heard, and the defensive spiritual weapon in Zhang Bei's hand shattered into several pieces, scattering on the ground with crackling sounds.

The crowd, already prepared, rushed forward with their weapons drawn. But how could they, already in poor condition, be a match for this demon? The demon didn't even have to spend much effort before sending them all flying.

The devil had already regarded the strange tree in front of it as its prey. After dealing with Zhang Bei and his men, it noticed Gu Shi who was standing under the tree.

It stretched out its hand and attacked Gu Shi.

At this moment, something strange happened.
