With a single swing of her sword, she slashed a shockingly long white gash across the demon's body.
The demon was in excruciating pain; its body trembled, and its gaze fell upon Gwen.
"Okay, you're very good!"
It seemed to recognize something and said viciously.
"Just now, I took care of someone who looks a lot like you."
"It seems you're just as irritating as she is!"
Gwen's expression changed drastically the moment she landed back on the ground. She instinctively thought the demon was referring to Kefla, and a surge of rage overwhelmed her.
However, the next second, the demon's astonishing hand struck towards her.
Gwen did not dodge. As if she had lost her mind, the longsword in her hand transformed back into a white holy blade of light tens of meters long, and she slashed at the demon.
Bang!
With a swipe of its giant demonic hand, Gwen was knocked down as easily as swatting a mosquito.
Gwen was slammed into the ground and passed out, unable to resist.
"Knight Commander Gwen!"
Many knights became worried, and even Victor, who was maintaining the formation, frowned.
The devil's laughter echoed again:
"It seems you're much weaker than her."
"Not even as good as a fly."
However, Gwen's actions bought the mages time.
Not everyone will be stunned by the devil's solo performance.
Buzz buzz buzz—
Countless magic arrays gradually rose from the sky, and various colored magic arrays were constantly forming, and a commanding voice rang out.
"Just like what we learned in the academy!"
"All units! Fire!"
At a command, magical arrows of various elements rained down on the demon.
It crackled and popped like fireworks.
But the demon simply extended its tentacles and blocked the magic.
There wasn't even a scratch on its tentacles.
The group of mages were astonished to find it completely unharmed.
The devil's thick foreskin is just too strong!
The first volley of fire had no effect, leaving many mages disheartened. But the next second, a clearly more professional voice rang out from above.
"All hands, fire! First round!"
Everyone turned to look, and there was Duke Levi, who had brought his army of mages to provide support.
The mages were positioned in all directions, completely surrounding the demon, their crystal balls radiating an astonishing magical glow.
Boom boom boom!!!
More powerful magic erupted from the crystal as elemental projectiles, which the demon could hardly withstand this time.
"Quickly change formation, second round of fire!"
Almost without pause, the second batch of mages replaced the first, and the magic they had prepared was launched in unison.
It even left the demon with no chance to fight back.
"It's Duke Reeves! Duke Reeves has arrived with his army of mages!"
Someone in the crowd shouted.
In an instant, everyone's morale soared!
Soon, more and more mages arrived from all over the capital to provide support.
Countless formations were continuously constructed in the air, their numbers increasing and their power growing stronger.
The relentless magical attacks left the demon with no time to escape, and for a moment, everyone felt that victory was in sight!
However, doing so seems to have only worn down the devil's patience.
The demon began to grow impatient.
gurgle—
gurgle—
It sounded like a powerful heartbeat, or like a giant drum exploding and striking.
The demon opened its enormous maw, as if to swallow everyone present whole.
The astonishing suction force, like a storm, swallowed the knights and mages who were very close to the demon into their mouths.
They screamed and howled in terror, but they were powerless to resist, unable even to escape.
The demon's gaping maw was like a meat grinder, with chunks of cruel, scarlet flesh falling to the ground from its mouth, like a starving ghost wasting food.
Fear once again gripped everyone's heads.
"It's over! Our attack was completely ineffective!"
"This is terrifying! Is this a demon?!"
"Help! Where's the dean? Where's the dean? Please help!"
"Who can possibly solve this?!"
Many monks and students gradually fell into a vortex of helplessness, and those in a bad mood even curled up on the ground and cried.
Suddenly, several third-tier mages paused, exchanged glances, and began to shout in confusion:
"Where's Viktor?! Where did Professor Viktor go?"
The third-tier mages all knew very well what kind of existence Victor was, and the direct participation of fourth-tier mages in the battle could very well improve the situation!
But Viktor seemed to have vanished suddenly, plunging many into utter despair.
However, at this very moment...
"What is that!?"
"Is that...Professor Victor!?"
As several students pointed to the sky and exclaimed, everyone looked up at the sky.
Before anyone knew it, Victor had appeared in the sky.
The trench coat behind him began to sway and flash with an amazing red light.
The flames set half the sky ablaze.
The filthy ink in the sky burned away, and suddenly, a burst of rosy light appeared.
It was as if Victor had set the sky ablaze and draped it over his shoulders.
Temperatures throughout the city began to rise sharply, becoming unbearably hot.
Those present stared in astonishment, then suddenly froze, their eyes wide with surprise.
"Holy crap! What is that?!"
Everyone saw it clearly this time: a huge, bright red meteorite was falling from the sky.
The target is the gaping maw of the demon.
