Chapter 489 Let’s Fight the BOSS Together
As soon as the Demon Lord appeared, all warriors below the rank of Mage Saint and Sword Saint retreated.
There is a huge disparity in strength. It would be better to leave the battlefield to warriors with equal strength to the Demon Lord than to stay on the front line and sacrifice in vain.
The powerful warriors above the level of Mage Saint and Sword Saint in each legion add up to thousands of people, which is more than enough to besiege a Demon Lord.
Even if Mercier himself came, it would be difficult to resist.
Shu Li looked at the ferocious and terrifying original form of the Demon Lord without any worries. He even felt that with his current strength, he could fight it alone.
However, the God of Darkness must have a trick up his sleeve.
“Roar—”
Deafening beast roars rang out, and two gigantic monsters emerged from the royal city, forming a three-legged tripod with Maisil on the city gate, intimidating the Light Alliance Legion that was besieging the city.
"Hiss~~" Shu Li gasped.
This time, he knew who the two new monsters were without the Elf King reminding him.
——The Demon Lords Ruseb and Attis.
Good god, the God of Darkness brought the three living demon kings to the human world by being conceived by human women to work for him.
Although their strength was not as strong as before, the three of them joined forces and created considerable resistance for the Legion of Light.
The city walls collapsed during the battle, and the royal city became a ruin, except for the royal palace, which remained intact.
A more solid defense array was set up around the palace, which could defend against both physical and magical attacks, and could strongly withstand the damage caused by the battle.
"Is the God of Darkness a coward?" Shu Li frowned.
This time in reincarnation, they seized the initiative and destroyed the Dark God's plan in advance. The dark forces were forced to die halfway through their development. The Dark God had incompetent subordinates and could only hide in the palace to create a bunch of monsters and three demon kings in an attempt to resist the siege of the Legion of Light.
The time, the place, and the people are all right. Today is a good day to kill the God of Darkness.
The endless stream of monsters and demon lords is nothing but consuming the combat effectiveness of the Legion of Light. In order to avoid any more trouble, it is best to go straight to the source, find a way to sneak into the palace, and get rid of the God of Darkness first.
Seeing that the Legion of Light had successfully restrained the three demon lords, Shu Li presented his own ideas to the Elf King.
"Is it possible?" he asked.
The Elf King looked into the little elf's bright eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then nodded in agreement. "You stay outside, and I'll lead the team into the palace."
"No!" Shu Li anxiously pulled at his cloak, "I'm going too!"
When forming a team to fight the final BOSS, how can we miss him as the main force?
However, the Elf King remained firm. "This time is different from the Snow Mountain Maze..."
"What's the difference?" Shu Li muttered dissatisfiedly, "Aren't they all clones of the God of Darkness?"
The Dark God's true body is in hell. Even if he descends to the human world through the pregnancy of a human woman, he can only be considered a divine being.
The clone is not as powerful as the original body, so it should be easier to kill than in the original war of gods.
Besides, he worked so hard to gain the recognition of the five elemental elves and improve his own magic level, all for this day.
He had died seven times, and this time he was determined to take revenge no matter what.
The Elf King frowned and stared into the goblin's angry eyes.
Shu Li looked back stubbornly, held his hand, and asked, "Are you afraid that I will be like the last seven times..."
The Elf King suddenly hugged him, pressed him tightly into his arms, and said in the language of another world: "Shu Li, be obedient."
Shu Li's heart trembled at the sudden sensation of hearing her long-lost mother tongue. She hugged the Elf King back, patted his back soothingly, and said softly, "Fris, since I'm the chosen 'Breakout', I can't avoid this battle. Don't worry, I'll be fine. Let me go with you, okay?"
The Elf King did not answer, but hugged him tighter, almost rubbing him into his body and becoming one with him.
Shu Li felt a little pain from being held so tightly by him. She bit her lip, tilted her head, and nibbled at his chin. "When I become small, I will hide in your collar and won't come out unless it's absolutely necessary. Is that okay?"
The Elf King sighed faintly and let him go.
Shu Li took the opportunity to leave his arms, pointed to the raging battlefield below, cleared her throat and said, "Now is not the time to talk about love, let's act quickly!"
Without waiting for the Elf King to answer, he retracted his origin, his body suddenly shrank, flapped his wings, and drilled into the Elf King's collar.
The Elf King pursed his lips and allowed the goblin to hide himself expertly, poking his head out of the collar and resting his chin on the first button.
"Fris, let's go—"
The Elf King stretched out his finger and gently pressed his little head.
Shu Li rubbed it twice with a bright smile.
The Elf King put down his hand, his expression solemn, and signaled Farm to land from the air.
Farm had wanted to join the battlefield for a long time, but the Elf King and the goblin standing on his head were discussing things with each other, which made him very anxious.
At this moment, the Elf King asked to get down to the ground, so it folded its wings and landed without hesitation.
Come on, come on, come on quickly. Once they go down, it will join the battlefield and kill everyone.
After the Elf King landed, he released several telepathic spells. After a few minutes, many people left the battlefield and gathered around him.
The five masters of the magic sword: Seleu, Leon, Eumis, Mnemo, and Senro
Former Dark Elves: Aung O'Rakiri, Etandin
Human God of Law: Pulsi, Mayid
Human Sword God: Luther, Guy
White Elves: Rowling, Hermann
Fairies: Fedro, Ores
Apart from the five Demon Sword Masters, the others are all over ten thousand years old and extremely powerful. A team composed of them can sneak into the palace and achieve twice the result with half the effort.
"If you want to sneak into the palace unnoticed, you have to go underground." Mayid stroked his smooth chin. He was a priest of the Earth God, and his earth magic was superb. Digging a tunnel to the palace was easy.
Purshi shook her head. "It's not that simple."
The defense formation outside the palace is all-round, even the underground is within the protection range.
Seleu hesitated for a moment, then said, "There's no need to dig a tunnel. There's a ready-made underground passage."
"Huh? Really?" Shu Li poked his little head out from the Elf King's collar.
Others:?
Being stared at by many pairs of sharp eyes, Shu Li looked innocent.
Why, are you surprised that he is fighting the big boss together?
Everyone looked away silently.
Seryu said, "I originally escaped from the palace and left the royal city through the underground passage."
It was an underground passage known only to members of the royal family. When he was a child, he accidentally entered it and found the second princess imprisoned in the dungeon, as well as the statue of his ancestor Sede.
It was when he encountered the statue of his ancestor Seid that he unexpectedly inherited the Sword of Carlos.
However, after more than forty years, he didn't know whether the underground passage had been destroyed by Denton.
Shu Li waved his hand: "What are we waiting for? Let's get going!"
Seleu looked at the Elf King and asked for his opinion. The Elf King nodded and agreed to take the underground passage.
Soon, Seleu led everyone to the entrance of the underground passage.
The entrance to the underground passage was in a grove a hundred meters away from the royal city. Seleu accurately found a giant tree.
The trunk of this giant tree is so thick that it takes ten people to stand in a circle to hug it.
On the surface, there was nothing special about it. When Seleu stood in front of the tree trunk and chanted a magic spell, his body rushed forward and suddenly disappeared on the spot.
"It's a trick." Pulshi smiled and walked towards the tree trunk, then disappeared.
Shu Li raised his hand and patted the Elf King's neck, motioning him to come forward.
The Elf King stood still and waited for the others to enter the tree trunk one by one before slowly approaching the trunk.
Shu Li only felt a flash before his eyes, and the scene around him changed.
This is a stone chamber.
The magician who entered first condensed a ball of light early on and suspended it in the air to serve as a lighting fixture.
Seeing the Elf King coming in, Seleu continued to lead the way and entered the only passage.
Fortunately, the passage showed no signs of damage. Apart from the turbid air, the darkness and the occasional rats and insects that appeared, there were no other obstacles.
Shu Li instantly cast a wind magic spell to move the air and eliminate the dust in the air.
With the light ball lighting up, the journey was smooth. When approaching the royal city, there was a violent vibration above their heads, which was the effect of the battle between the Legion of Light and the Demon Lord.
It is unknown what solid material the tunnel barrier is made of or how many meters away it is from the surface. No matter how fierce the fighting on the surface was, the tunnel did not collapse.
Relying on his memory, Seleucus avoided traps, turned left and right, and successfully arrived near the palace.
As Pulshi said, the palace's defense formation was all-round protection, and the underground passage was blocked, making it impossible to move forward.
Eumis reached out and touched the diaphragm of the defensive formation, pulling out the sword of Viona hanging at his waist.
"It's our turn."
The Elf King summoned five Demon Sword Masters to join the team in order to break the defense formation.
Leon, Mnemo, and Senro drew their swords simultaneously, while Seleu silently transformed into the Sword of Carlos.
The five swords become one, attacking the defensive formation.
"Bang--"
The defensive formation remained motionless.
Shu Li nervously tugged at the Elf King's collar. "Can't even the magic sword be broken?"
"No, it can be cracked." Leon gripped the Sword of Eterno tightly in his hand. "Try a few more times."
This defensive formation was stronger than the previous one, but he felt that the magic sword could still break it.
"Come again!" Eumis raised the sword of Viona high.
"Bang--"
The five magic swords shone brightly and pierced the defense formation with unstoppable force. The defense formation shook and cracks appeared.
"Is it done?" Shu Li poked his head out, but was pushed back by the Elf King with a finger.
The situation is not optimistic.
Although there are cracks, there is no sign of breaking.
"Bang--"
When the magic sword attacked the defense formation for the third time, the crack widened and finally became a small broken hole.
Senluo frowned and tried to pull out the sword of Boshug, and the broken crack was actually repaired.
Other Demon Sword Masters also discovered this problem.
The goblin elder Fedro, who has lived for tens of thousands of years, sighed: "It is worthy of the power of the gods."
Fairies and elves are known as the clan of light. They were the first to master magic, but they are far from reaching the realm of gods.
Shu Li pursed her lips seriously.
This dark god is more powerful than the god in the snow mountain maze.
The Elf King stepped forward, raised his right hand and covered the surface of the defense array, chanted a spell in a low voice, and as the magic was released, the surface of the defense array began to fluctuate.
Seeing this, Shu Li immediately ordered: "Leon, try again!"
The Elf King used magic to temporarily seal the repair function of the defense array. Time was running out, and the Lord of the Demon Sword attacked together and succeeded in one fell swoop.
“Ka-ka-ka—”
A gap appeared in the defense formation, only enough for one person to enter and exit.
They were all veteran soldiers who had experienced hundreds of battles. They took advantage of every opportunity and rushed into the defense formation in a flash.
The Elf King is the last one again.
When he slipped in, the defense array's repair function was restored and the crack disappeared without a trace.
Ores elegantly brushed his long, light-blonde hair.
Fortunately, we took the underground passage, which allowed us to enter the palace without much trouble. Going above ground would have required fighting monsters and breaking through the defenses, a difficult journey that would have taken at least twice as long.
The closer we got to the palace, the easier the road became. We climbed up the stone steps and soon reached the exit.
The exit of the underground passage is in a remote palace.
At that time, Harris took Seleu and escaped into this palace, avoiding the eyes and ears of Denton, and sneaked into the underground passage to escape.
At the end of the stone steps, there is another stone chamber.
Seleu placed his hands on the wall and calmly moved the pattern on the relief.
Along with a subtle grinding sound, a square hole appeared above the head.
Luther and Guy were the first to get out of the cave.
They are swordsmen, also known as meat shields. If there is danger outside, they can hold on first.
Fortunately, everything went well.
After everyone left the passage, there was no movement.
Shu Li poked his head out to take a look and found that the exit was under a stone chair fixed to the ground. When Seleu reset the stone chair, there was no trace of the flaw at all.
He expanded his perception and looked throughout the palace, only to find it was empty.
As a royal palace, no matter how remote it is, there must be servants, right?
Where have all the people gone?
He expanded his perception and searched for the location of the Dark God.
"Nearby." Ang Olaqiri said in a deep voice.
Having dealt with the God of Darkness for thousands of years, he was very familiar with his breath. After leaving the underground passage, he immediately used his perception to search for the God of Darkness and quickly locked onto the target.
Seleu was stunned for a moment and said, "There is a palace for sacrifices nearby."
Mayide held his magic wand in his arms and raised his eyebrows. "Whatever palace it is, let's go and take a look."
It’s better to be close to it so you don’t have to spend time looking for it.
There was a hint of worry in Purshi's eyes.
I always feel that this God of Darkness has a different personality from the one in the Snow Mountain Maze.
Normally, the entire palace should be filled with strong dark power, weakening the power of the light race.
However, they could not sense any dark power along the way.
This is very abnormal.
Everyone was full of doubts, and they all became alert, releasing their perception and being on guard at all times.
As they got closer to the sacrificial palace, everyone's vigilance reached its peak.
Arriving at the palace gate, the two Sword Gods led the way and entered carefully, followed closely by the others.
"hiss--"
The pillars on both sides of the palace suddenly lit up with faint blue lights, guiding the intruders.
Everyone knows it.
The Dark God knew they were coming.
Now that they were discovered, everyone no longer held their breath and moved openly, quickly crossing the last palace door.
A thick dark aura hit me in the face.
“Crunch, crunch—”
There was a loud chewing sound from an animal up ahead.
Shu Li had sharp ears and looked over with wide eyes. He saw more than ten ugly monsters lying on the ground, tearing human corpses with their bloody mouths. The ground was flowing with bright red blood, and broken limbs and internal organs were scattered all over the ground.
He almost vomited.
Those human corpses were clearly wearing servants' clothes, and had been bitten beyond recognition by monsters.
No wonder there wasn't a single servant in the palace; it turned out they had all become food for the monsters.
Sensing the foreign invader, the eating monster raised its ferocious head with murderous eyes.
Luther and Guy attacked with their swords without hesitation.
These are all high-level magic warriors. If they evolve one step further, they will become demon lords. We must destroy them as soon as possible to prevent future troubles.
The monster roared threateningly, abandoned the "food" on the ground, and fiercely besieged the outsiders.
The battle is about to begin.
The melee swordsmen formed a circle to resist the monsters, while the elves, fairies, and magicians in the middle attacked from a distance.
The magic warriors are not as powerful as the Demon Lord. Even if there are many of them, they are no match for a group of magic gods and sword gods.
In just a few minutes, they were all wiped out.
Shu Li held the magic wand in his hand and puffed out his cheeks.
He was a fairy who could cast magic instantly, but he failed to catch a single "monster".
It was obvious how strong the other members of the team were.
The demon's body fell to the ground with a loud bang, and a cloud of black mist rose up, gathered towards the altar, and merged into a huge "black egg".
"Huh? What is that?" Shu Li was surprised.
Ang O'Rakiri stared at the black egg solemnly. His intuition told him that there was a familiar aura inside the egg.
"It's the God of Darkness." The Elf King took a few steps forward, his green eyes fixed on the black egg, and a gorgeous magic wand appeared in his hand.
"He is about to break free from the shackles of human flesh."
Others were horrified.
Once the Dark God's true form descends upon the human world, the consequences will be disastrous.
Shu Li waved the magic wand in his hand and shot out an arrow of light.
"Bang!"
The arrow of light collided with the black egg, emitting a dazzling light.
"Stop him!" he shouted.
Even if there is only one second left, we must stop the evolution of the Dark God.
He was almost through with the challenge, and he would never allow the boss to mutate and increase its strength.
