“…”

“…”

I am most afraid of the air suddenly becoming quiet.

Fang Zheng stared at the witch in front of him in silence, and Magda also looked at him without saying a word. After a moment, Magda sneered.

"It turned out to be a little mouse that accidentally dug the wrong hole. It seems like you have really bad luck."

Damn it!

While cursing inwardly, Fang Zheng looked around. His current situation was extremely bad. His left shoulder was burning with pain, and his body was covered with wounds. He was sore all over and had almost no strength at all. He was in a wide hall, and there was not even a shelter to be found. Not only was he surrounded by dozens of cultists, but the boss was also watching him closely from behind.

I just came here to look for an item, how come it turned into a boss fight all of a sudden?

The difficulty has tripled in one go!

Fang Zheng's expression was uncertain at the moment, but before he could figure out how to solve the trouble in front of him, he saw the expression of the witch floating in the air suddenly changed.

"I feel a strange power fluctuation in your arms... So that's it, that thing is in your hand, give it to me!"

At the end, the witch suddenly raised her voice, which made Fang Zheng feel as if his ears were suddenly struck by countless gongs. He felt dizzy and couldn't even speak for a while. The body that had just stood up seemed to be knocked down by someone and fell to the ground again.

"Go and catch him! Bring me what's in his arms!"

Magda had no intention of talking nonsense with Fang Zheng. After all, in her eyes, Fang Zheng was just a militiaman. Although she was a little curious about how this militiaman appeared in front of her, in the dark world, such ants were never the ones that Magda needed to care about. After hearing the order from their master, the cultists walked towards Fang Zheng. In their eyes, a militiaman who was seriously injured and unable to move was not a threat at all.

“Haaaah…haaah…”

Holding Frostmourne tightly, Fang Zheng was still half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath. His head was buzzing and everything he saw was blurry. In Fang Zheng's eyes, the cultists were only swaying black shadows.

Am I going to die here?

His lungs were aching, and every breath he took felt like a fire was burning in his chest. Fang Zheng raised his head and saw those blurry shadows approaching him. He couldn't even see the cultists' attire clearly, but he knew that facing so many cultists, he had no power to fight back at the moment.

Then, there is only one solution left.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng clenched the sword in his hand.

Just as the cultists approached Fang Zheng, a howling cold wind suddenly arose.

“——!!”

The coldness swept through the bodies of the cultists in an instant, but they were not aware of it at all. They just kept their previous movements, but the whole body seemed to be stopped in time. Soon, layers of white frost began to appear on their skin, and the soul fire in their eyes was extinguished in an instant.

"What's this?!!"

Magda was shocked when she saw this sudden scene. She raised her hands quickly. As she did so, a blood-red magic circle appeared beside her. Soon, a translucent red barrier enveloped Magda. But even so, the icy wind blew her away in an instant, and the torches stuck on the walls were completely extinguished in the howling storm.

For a moment, the surroundings fell into darkness.

“Cough… cough cough…”

What kind of power is this?

Magda wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth while looking forward in doubt. She originally thought Fang Zheng was just an ordinary militiaman, but what happened just now made Magda no longer sure. She could feel an extremely powerful force full of death and coldness coming. How could this be possible? Could it be that the other party was also a servant of a demon king of hell? How could this be? Why didn't Lord Belial tell her! ?

Magda swore that if she had known that other demon kings of hell were involved, she would never have been so dismissive!

But now, it's too late!

"call."

The torch that had been extinguished was lit again, but this time, it was no longer burning the original flame, but the green fire of the soul.

"That's all..."

A deep voice sounded, and the temperature began to drop suddenly. Although protected by the blood barrier, Magda was still shivering. She could feel that an existence that she could not resist had arrived. At this moment, the entire underground hall had completely changed. The ground that was originally covered with blood and corpses was completely covered with frost, and even the ceiling around was covered with ice spikes. The entire underground hall turned into a world of ice and snow in the blink of an eye.

A huge figure emerged from it and stared at Magda in front of it, with no emotion in its eyes shining with blue light.

"How dare you, a lowly insect, stand in my way!?"

"I, I am a subordinate of Lord Belial!!"

At this moment, Magda's face was livid. She didn't know which demon king appeared in front of her, but she was sure that the other party's power was no less than that of the Lord of Lies Belial whom she served. At this moment, Magda no longer planned to take back the fragment, and she even planned to give up this task. Of course, she might be punished by Belial, but it was better than dying here silently.

"I don't intend to be your enemy, please let me go..."

"Let you go?"

Hearing Magda's request, the huge figure looked at her and then raised the sword in his hand.

"Your soul is filled with fear... and it will become food for Frostmourne..."

"No--!!"

Hearing this, Maghda could no longer bear it. Although she didn't know what the "Frostmourne" the other party was talking about, she understood that the other party obviously did not intend to let her go!

Thinking of this, the witch no longer hesitated and flew backwards madly, waving her hands and swinging them continuously.

"Guards! Stop him!!"

As Magda shouted, cultists and hellish demons appeared one after another, blocking the Lich King and trying to stop the terrifying existence. Seeing this, the Lich King just sneered.

"Come, let me show you the power of the Scourge!!"

Before he finished speaking, the cultists and demons from hell who had rushed over watched in horror as the frozen ground suddenly cracked with a "crack". Then, countless undead creatures with blue flames burning in their eyes emerged from it. They raised their weapons high and rushed towards the enemies in front of them with roars.

Suddenly, shouts of killing were heard and the entire dungeon turned into a hell.

“Haaaah…haaah…”

Magda was also terrified at the moment. She had never thought that she would provoke such a terrifying existence. At the moment, she was already panicking and had no idea what to do.

"Lord Belial, save me!!"

While screaming, Magda ran forward frantically. At this moment, she could no longer leave the underground city. The teleportation array where Fang Zheng was was the only exit. If she didn't use the teleportation array, then Magda would have to leave this nest that she had worked so hard to manage for many years. But what made Magda desperate was that no matter how she begged, she didn't get a response from the demon king this time.

"Lord Belial!!"

“Swish!!”

Just as Magda rushed to the end of the corridor, suddenly, an ice wall emerged from the ground, blocking Magda's way. At the same time, Magda heard heavy footsteps behind her.

“Boom…boom…boom…”

"No! I don't want to die! I don't want to die here!! Lord Belial, save me!!"

Hearing the footsteps coming from behind, Magda almost collapsed. She tried desperately to break the ice wall in front of her, but the magic she released could not even break a corner of the ice wall. At this moment, the footsteps behind her were getting closer and closer. Magda turned her head and saw a dark figure walking towards her step by step.

"No, don't come over! I don't want to die! Please let me go, I can be your most loyal slave! I can swear on my soul...!"

Seeing the figure slowly walking towards her, Magda didn't care about anything at this moment, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and shouted. But the other party didn't say a word, only the long sword in his hand emitted a cold light.

"...I'll fight you!!"

Seeing that begging was of no use, Magda finally became desperate. She roared and flew into the air, raising her hands. Then, bright red rays and fireballs poured out from Magda's hands and blasted towards the figure.

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!!”

Accompanied by a series of explosions, the black figure was immediately engulfed by the flames. But the next moment, a cold light suddenly flashed!

“Swish!”

The tumbling fireball was instantly split in two. Magda opened her eyes wide and stared blankly ahead, only to see the cold light tearing through her flames and moving straight forward, instantly piercing through Magda's body and pinning her to the ice wall. It was not until this moment that the bright red barrier around Magda's body exploded and dissipated.

“I…I…”

Magda tightly grasped the long sword that had pierced her body, and looked at the young man in front of her. She opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but before she could speak, she screamed miserably. Then she saw a human-like mist in Magda's body being forcibly peeled off and sucked into the sword blade shining with blue light. Then, she saw the witch's body soften and fall down without a sound.

Fang Zheng stared coldly at Magda's body in front of him. It was not until a moment later that he retracted Frostmourne.

"Bang!"

The next moment, everything around was completely shattered.
