"boom!"
Amidst the roar of artillery fire, the golden-winged beetle suffered heavy damage. Its battered scales were severely damaged by the precise artillery fire.
A giant axe fell, cleaving with a sonic boom, striking its wound and instantly splitting it in two!
"you……"
"Demons!"
On the snowy plain, limbs and severed bodies lay scattered everywhere, where the defeated cavalrymen lay forever, their lives cut short.
A man in a red robe, with sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and gray hair like a waterfall, stood on the blood-stained snow. His sword rested on the shoulder of a man whose body was half-rotted. His cold eyes flashed with lightning.
"My lord's conquest..."
Pete let out a defiant cry, his back drenched in blood, from which a dragon-like tentacle emerged, tearing through the air as it lunged forward with bloodlust.
"boom!"
A bolt of lightning struck him, blasting his back into a bloody mist, leaving a gaping hole the size of a bowl, a bloody mess.
The swordsman's face was cold. A flash of light disappeared in an instant, and Pete's head was severed, with a large amount of black blood splattering from his neck.
The head rolled to one side and stopped at someone's feet. The eyes, burning with rage, stared fiercely at Xiao Han, who was pretending to be a sage.
"My lord...will surely return...you...welcome...the wrath!"
"The demon race is guilty of heinous crimes and is the common enemy of all intelligent beings. They deserve to die."
Xiao Han responded with a shout, then stepped on Pete's face, which was filled with pain and resentment, giving him no chance. He sank into the snow and set it on fire.
The vitality of the awakened bloodline is quite tenacious, so Xiao Han could only increase the force of his footing, like stomping on a cockroach, hoping that the other party would pass away soon and leave no evidence.
"My lord, they are... from the three major southern duchies. Please be extra careful."
Khrushchev retrieved his blood-stained spiked club. The old man's blood surged, his face flushed, and he slipped to Xiao Han's side.
He glanced at the sophisticated weaponry displayed on the giant city walls, including three magic cannons, and was secretly alarmed.
After leaving the phantom of the temple, the powerful allied forces stationed in Giant City emerged one after another. Sensing the aura of the demons, they immediately came to Xiao Han's aid, killed the enemy leader, and defeated them in one fell swoop. Afterwards, they dispatched a part of their forces to break into the snowstorm and pursue them all the way.
Pete and the others also thought these were the enemy's strong reinforcements and fell into a trap. However, their lord did not allow them to retreat, seemingly having a backup plan. This led them to fight a bloody battle for their lord's hegemony, and three half-step gold-level warriors perished here.
He died without ever receiving any news from the Lord.
"May this sacred fire purify your sins, go and repent!"
With a compassionate expression, he dealt with the most heinous criminals in the world, restoring a bright and just world to the north, where righteousness endures.
The wolf riders retreated behind Xiao Han, carrying bloodstained spiked clubs, practically picking up the remaining blood from behind. They were three against one, with a rich record of victories.
On the Giant City side, apart from over a hundred elite warriors, only three Allied strongmen made an appearance.
One of them, dressed in a cloak of wind and surrounded by orbs of lightning, unleashed a swift and deadly lightning spell, killing the Silverlight City Lord in the blink of an eye.
One of them wore a helmet with horns and carried two axes. He used his physical strength to fight the enemy and smashed the golden-winged beetle.
The last one was someone Xiao Han feared. He had superb swordsmanship and agile movements. More importantly, his sword was forged from holy patterned steel, which could deal ten times the damage to demons.
However, these people were still injured after the battle, and their magical energy was more than half depleted. If Xiao Han wanted to launch a sneak attack, he would still have a high chance of killing one of them.
Then, before the warrior in the horned helmet could speak, Xiao Han, facing the gazes of the group of allied warriors, respectfully bowed and said, "In the name of the Knights Alliance, I thank you all for your help in wiping out the remnants of the demon race. The Knights Alliance will remember your merits."
"The Knights' Alliance...Middle-earth?"
As everyone looked at Xiao Han, a thought popped into their minds.
The Knights Alliance is an alliance formed by various war-torn forces in the Middle-earth to reclaim their rightful lands and specifically to fight against the demons.
Being hunted by three half-step gold-level demons, their identities seem to be anything but simple.
In particular, this seemingly harmless fox-person actually possessed the power of a sage, and the auxiliary abilities granted by the Divine Enhancement Technique made these powerful individuals vaguely guess the other party's identity.
A sage?
Rather than being a sage, they are more like one of the inheritors of the sage's legacy. They haven't seen any sage skills from Xiao Han other than the Divine Enhancement Technique, so it's uncertain for now.
Furthermore, the God of Harvest issued a divine decree, informing the three great duchies to dispatch allied forces to wipe out the demons, and they roughly understood the whole story.
“Sage, there’s no need for that. The demon race has always been the common enemy of the continent. It is our inescapable responsibility to exterminate the demon race.”
The warrior in the horned helmet, with an overly familiar demeanor, genuinely treated the other as a sage in an attempt to curry favor, and secretly inquired: "However, since you've come to this barren northern land, I haven't seen your guardian knight. Have you gotten separated from him?"
Demons, whose bounties are listed on the bounty lists of every continent, are rewarded handsomely, and the reward for killing a demon king is enough to establish a kingdom.
The Hall of Heroes, the most powerful force on the continent, is favored by the gods and produces many heroes who relentlessly slay demons and prove their path to enlightenment. They have everything: wealth, power, status, and beautiful maids.
Sages are a rare class that rivals heroes. They excel at providing group support and are highly favored by powerful factions. Sages are always accompanied by powerful knights for protection.
But this fox-person, a great figure suspected to be a sage, has descended upon the northern lands; it can't be that simple.
"To my shame, my... guardian knight died during the demon invasion, buying me a precious opportunity to defeat the Demon King."
Xiao Han looked dejected and saddened, and a scene suddenly flashed through his mind.
