Chapter 636 Demonic Siege
The holy city should have been discovered long ago.
When the magician cast the forbidden spell of skyfall, he was discovered by the demons.
The reason why the demons did not take any action was that they were worried about the strong man who was suspected to be a human.
Being able to kill one of the Four Heavenly Kings instantly and prevent that king from even getting any news out, such a strong man is not someone the demons can easily deal with.
But until now, the demons are unable to confirm whether that person is a human or not.
The Succubus Queen Pelume instinctively did not want to believe that the strong man was a human. After all, humans had already reached this point, and the demons only needed to work a little harder to easily gain this world.
The appearance of a strong human at this time would bring unnecessary risks to the demons.
But Pellum didn't like the possible risks.
She had already planned to launch a coup to seize the throne of Demon King after conquering the world. If the demons could not gain control of the world, her plan could not be carried out.
Therefore, she made three full days of mental preparation and assembled all the powerful demons, including those who were originally prepared to deal with the Demon King.
With these powerful men and the secret techniques of the demon clan, even if the Demon King himself comes, Perum is confident that he can kill him here!
It was for these preparations that Pellum led his army outside the holy city today.
Of course, even so, Perum did not go to the battlefield himself, and only allowed the sages of the Four Heavenly Kings and the Blood Demon to appear on the battlefield.
She is the commander on the battlefield and the leader of the demon army. How could she go to the front line in person? This is not in line with her style.
And now, seeing that the Sage and the Blood Demon were leading their respective tribes to set up formations above the Holy City according to the plan, Pellum's heart was temporarily put at ease.
The magic circle is complete. If the devil comes today, he will be defeated here! Feeling a little relieved, Perum sat at the back of the army and looked at the front-line scene projected in front of him.
…
Dark clouds gathered over the holy city.
The dark clouds were so thick that it seemed as if the sky was falling down.
This is not a normal dark cloud. From the strong magic power in the dark cloud, it can be judged that this is the magic of the demons.
They used magic to block the entire holy city! "They shouldn't be able to escape this time." Above the Holy City, a sage with white hair and white curved horns on both sides of his forehead whispered to the Blood Demon beside him.
The red-skinned blood demon, who was born a blood elf, looked at the holy city in front of him. He felt an inexplicable sense of uneasiness in his heart. He looked at the demon sage beside him, frowned and asked:
"Has the person who killed the Great Demon not been identified yet?"
"It's only been three days. He killed someone and left. How can we confirm his identity?"
"Does Perum dare to attack the Holy City directly?" The Blood Demon frowned even deeper.
He is a cautious person and therefore doesn't like uncertainty.
Although he made a wrong judgment on the matter of the hero last time and failed to kill the hero immediately, he let the great demon Kux reap the benefits instead.
But the Blood Demon didn't regret it at all.
Uncertainty is the worst, and he doesn't fight a battle he's unprepared for.
But not this time.
Humans only have the Holy City left. The demons can rule the world by destroying the humans here. Pelume, who temporarily replaces the Demon King as the commander of the demons, demands that all the Four Heavenly Kings be present.
They want to achieve their goal in one fell swoop and make humanity history today!
Originally... that was the plan.
However, the identity of the person who killed the big demon has not been figured out yet, which makes the Blood Demon very uneasy.
To be honest, he wanted to leave here and retreat to the rear, just like the Succubus Queen did.
Unfortunately not.
Among the Four Heavenly Kings, he is the weakest and has the least achievements, and he has to obey the orders of the Succubus Queen.
The sage saw the blood demon's uneasiness. He looked at the blood demon with disdain and said:
"If you are really scared, then hide away. The credit for conquering the Holy City and completely exterminating humanity will belong to me!"
The demons worship the strong; even sages who are known for their rationality cannot change the nature of the demons.
People who are timid and fearful will be despised. In the eyes of sages, the Blood Demon's behavior of seeking safety in everything will be regarded as cowardice.
If the Blood Demon was not one of the few strong men among the demons, and was not the emperor of the blood elves, he probably would not have been given the position of the Four Heavenly Kings.
Now that everything is ready and only the final blow remains, the Blood Demon is still cowering, which will naturally lead to his contempt by the sage.
But the blood demon didn't care about the sage's contempt.
He just looked at the sage in silence and made a 'please' gesture, signaling the sage to go over and attack the holy city.
The sage sneered, holding the spell to control the magic circle in his hand, and came to the holy city, shouting to the people inside: "Human race! You have no chance to turn the tables! But the Demon King is kind-hearted and is willing to give you a chance. If you open the holy city's defenses at this moment, sincerely submit to the demon race, and become a vassal of the demon race! We are willing to spare your life!
"But if we continue to resist..."
The sage shouted passionately in front of the holy city, with no disguising his arrogance in his words.
Just from the cruelty in his eyes, one can tell that if the Holy City really opens its gates and surrenders, death will be the only thing that awaits it.
The demons are a group of cruel creatures. They never show any sympathy to humans. In their eyes, humans are just food, toys and slaves.
How can the sage's promise count for such a creature?
The Blood Demon was watching from behind, listening to the sage's words and thinking these things in his mind. At the same time, he was also keeping a vigilant eye on his surroundings to avoid the sudden appearance of the strong man who killed the big demon.
But the Blood Demon did not find the strong man, but found another thing wrong.
It seemed like something... flew out from the center of the holy city! “…I’ll give you ten seconds now!”
The sage's "speech" was still going on, but the thing that flew out of the holy city was already approaching him.
The blood demon opened his mouth, and he was about to remind the sage to be careful.
But the thing that flew out from the Holy City was too fast. The Blood Demon had only uttered one syllable when the thing had already penetrated the Sage's body!
The sage's voice suddenly stopped, his body froze in the air, and dense and regular blood vessels appeared on the surface of his body.
The blood threads divided his body into pieces like squares, and then... those cubes of flesh and blood began to slide off his body! “!!!!!!”
What happened to the sage made the Blood Demon's hair stand on end.
He hardly even thought about it, his body instantly disintegrated, and countless blood flew all over the world like splashing raindrops! This is one of the Blood Demon's special skills, and also his ultimate means to save his life! By dividing his body into hundreds of thousands of blood drops, as long as one drop of blood can escape, the Blood Demon will be able to give himself a new life! As soon as he saw something was wrong, he immediately disintegrated his body and escaped. The Blood Demon's decision was decisive, but unfortunately, it was this decisiveness that made the strong man in the Holy City target him.
"Oh? It's rare to see someone so afraid of death."
The young boy's voice sounded in the air.
A figure appeared in the air at some point. The person was wearing a golden robe, which was something only the Pope of the church could wear! But he did not wear the papal crown on his head, nor did he have a papal scepter in his hand. He looked like a naughty child who had stolen his grandfather's clothes.
But it was this child who, as soon as he appeared, made all the blood drops in the air stagnate in mid-air!
Some were flying far away, some were about to fall to the ground, some were trying to get under the foot of the holy city and merge with the flowers and plants below...
All these blood drops, without exception, have stagnated!
Not a single one can escape! This...this is impossible! ! ! The blood demon wailed in his heart.
All the blood drops scattered in different directions solidified instantly, which meant that the boy was able to fully control all the matter in this space! This is not something humans can do! It’s God!
Only God can do this! !
“Useless!!!” The voice of the Succubus Queen Perum suddenly rang out in the air. She angrily cursed at the Blood Demon who failed to escape: “Blood Demon! What are you thinking about! Why don’t you activate the magic circle!!”
Activate the magic circle? You really think highly of me.
Even in a critical moment, the Blood Demon still had the leisure to complain in his heart. He was not particularly good at magic, and it took at least one second to activate the magic circle.
And judging by the sage's death speed, one second is enough for this unknown young god to kill him thousands of times!
Yes, young gods.
In the Blood Demon’s mind, the young man who suddenly appeared was not a human being at all, he was a god who came from nowhere! Only gods can make these four heavenly kings powerless to fight back!
But then again, since Perum was willing to speak, it meant that she must have activated the magic circle.
Although the Blood Demon did not think that activating the magic circle would be enough to deal with the young god behind him, but... at least he and the sage could survive for a while.
Sure enough, just as the Blood Demon had thought about it, the magic circle in the sky suddenly activated.
As if time had gone back, the sage who had been cut into pieces, his scattered flesh and blood were reassembled and restored to his original appearance.
Everything, including the clothes, became intact.
The blood demon, which had also split into hundreds of thousands of pieces of blood, was reunited under the influence of this magic circle and stood in the air.
Seeing this magical scene, the young god's eyes revealed deep curiosity.
He is like a newborn child, full of curiosity about everything in this world.
"Interesting, time goes back?"
He whispered to himself, as if he was asking himself, or as if he was asking the sage and blood demon who had just been resurrected.
The sage's face was pale. Having died once, the arrogance on his face was gone. In his eyes, there was only deep fear of the young god.
Without letting the Blood Demon speak, the Sage asked the young god:
"Who are you?! You are not a human! You are not a demon either!! Who are you!!!"
Just one strike was enough to scare the sage out of his fear. The Blood Demon even felt that he might not have the courage to attack the young man.
The more arrogant a person is, the more vulnerable he will be after his arrogance is shattered.
This is what the wise man is like now.
