The message sent out told the Empire the hiding place of Lin Xingchen and others, and the reply said that they would come as quickly as possible.

This wait really lasted a whole day and it happened at night. Space magic came in handy again at this time. The use of mirror magic teleported the situation on his side to the location he specified.

It was a very deceptive magic. When the imperial magicians arrived at night, they saw that it was exactly as they had predicted, and several level nine magicians attacked directly.

Several people continued to bombard with magic, completely unaware of the danger under their feet.

Thousands of magic-destroying arrows buried deep underground were triggered instantly when they reached the designated location. Although several magicians who discovered the situation in time quickly supported the shield, it was unfortunately still useless under the magic-destroying arrows.

There were only five people coming this time, but they were all ninth-level magicians. Gustav had already anticipated that Lin Xingchen would repeat the same trick, so he had been on guard against this move.

Then he shot three of them to death with magic-breaking arrows shot from below with the help of magic power. Only one of the other two was considered intact. The arrow shot into the thigh of the other survivor will probably make him use a crutch for the rest of his life.

The first wave of magic-breaking arrows was followed by a huge ball of explosive flames. This was Lin Xingchen's favorite trap, and he had constant experience and routines every time he used it.

It only took a few seconds, but except for the three people who were shot dead, the other two were not injured, which only made them more embarrassed.

But it doesn't matter because there is one last link in this chain trap. A huge portal is formed in the shape of a flame, and a fire demon with flames burning all over its body appears in front of the two imperial magicians.

They were so surprised by this scene that before they could recover from it, the long whip in the Fire Demon's hand hit the imperial wizard who had recovered from the arrow wound.

The intense burning flames made him howl, but it was of no avail. Darcy had not expected that he could catch one so easily after he appeared on the scene. The beheading sword in his hand followed the long whip and he was there in front of him.

It is no surprise that if the trapped magician had the chance to regret, he would definitely not participate in this seemingly sure capture operation.

Unfortunately, he had no chance to regret. He could only watch the huge beheading sword coming towards him and shout helplessly in despair.

"You actually signed a contract with the devil. I will make sure that everyone on the continent knows about your evil deeds." The magician said loudly in a stern and restrained manner, then turned around and ran away. A ninth-level fire demon was not something he could deal with at all.

Setting this trap will naturally not let anyone get away. As soon as Darcy appeared, Lin Xingchen drank the magic liberation potion and cast a magic called space cage. This magic can temporarily isolate the space at the location. Unless the caster dies or cancels the magic, there is no way to escape.

"Master! I didn't expect that you have already reached the seventh level of strength. I estimate that in a few decades you will be able to become a ninth-level magician." Darcy did not rush to take action, but instead flattered him first.

"Darcy, stop talking nonsense and get rid of this guy!" He interrupted the scum and freak among the demons and signaled him to kill the ninth-level magician immediately.

To be honest, if it wasn't for the purpose of trapping the newcomer, Lin Xingchen would not be willing to fight alongside the Flame Demon. After all, the ninth-level magician on the opposite side was very powerful.

However, how strong humans are depends on who they are compared with. If Lin Xingchen is also level nine, he will not be afraid of him at all, but unfortunately he is only at the peak of level seven now.

However, with the upgraded Fire Demon, everything became easier. The Fire Demon became the main output while he just played assist on the side.

After seeing an opportunity, he used up all his magic power to control the imperial wizard. The fire demon also delivered a fatal blow in time, and the wizard had no choice but to lift the blockade and return to this world out of breath.

Darcy extinguished the flames on her body and shrunk her body size, and accompanied Lin Xingchen back to the base. Darcy's arrival caused chaos in the entire magic army. After all, demons have always represented evil in their understanding since childhood.

"Don't worry! This is my servant. He won't dare to do anything without my order. Don't worry."

"Captain, please quickly arrange for us to move the camp. It will soon be unsafe here." Everyone was still very convinced by Lin Xingchen's words, and one by one they got on the Magic Butterfly Car and moved quickly.

After taking the potion, the dried up magic power finally began to recover, and Lin Xingchen felt more confident. This time, he killed five ninth-level wizards of the empire in one fell swoop. It can be said that all the losses were made up in an instant.

After arriving at the new base, the spy was brought up again. Lin Xingchen kept his word and gave him a way out, but destroyed the source of his magic power.

A magician without the source of magic power is like a hero in a martial arts novel without his dantian. He loses all his martial arts skills and becomes a useless person.

However, Lin Xingchen gave him a chance to live, but his other companions did not make this promise. One of them used an earth-type ground spike to kill the spy because his best friend was missing.

Looking at the spy who was like bacon hanging in the air, Darcy took a deep breath at him. Lin Xingchen saw something like a ghost flying into Darcy's mouth.

"Darcy, what are you doing?" Lin Xingchen was a little confused.

"Master, for us demons, souls born in the main world are the most wonderful food in the world. I saw that you didn't need it, but I couldn't help but eat it. You won't be angry, will you?" As he said that, he secretly glanced at Lin Xingchen a few times.

"As long as you don't mess around, you can eat whatever you want. By the way, did you eat the souls of the five ninth-level mages when you came out?"

"Master, now that you mention this, I actually have something I want to report to you." Darcy said, touching the big horns on his head.

"What's the matter?"

"That's right, Master. After I killed the two ninth-level wizards, I wanted to devour their souls, but strangely, I couldn't find his soul. Even the last wizard I wanted to devour after I killed him, his soul was dragged into the ground by a powerful force."

"Dragged into the underground? Have you ever encountered this situation?" Scratching his head, Lin Xingchen had never encountered such a problem before.

"No, the highest level soul I have devoured was the eighth level. It was also because of this soul that I was able to advance to the ninth level with the help of the Fire Diamond you gave me." Darcy honestly told him his situation.

"Could it be because the soul has other protective functions after the ninth level?"

"Master, this is impossible. I once chatted with the lord of our place, and he told me that the soul will not leave the body after the death. At least it will take some time for it to leave the body. But I have never encountered such a situation." Darcy felt very uncomfortable. After all, the soul of a ninth-level wizard was a very good tonic. If he devoured these five souls, he might be able to advance to the advanced ninth level in one fell swoop.

"Forget it. If you can't figure it out, forget it. I'll need your help next time, but don't swallow anything randomly on the battlefield. You can't devour our souls." Tell this unruly guy in advance so that he won't cause any bad trouble.

"Sir, it's amazing that you can tame a demon as your slave, but will there be no problems? After all, he is a demon!" The battalion commander said carefully in Lin Xingchen's ear.

"Don't worry! You are the only ones who know this place. I will throw him to other battlefields to attract fire for us.

Now that the Empire has lost five important magicians, they will definitely not give up. We have no way to create chaos in the near future, but it is already September and we have set our sights on the grain they are harvesting.

Everyone, come on and fight as hard as you can, destroy all their food, this will also play an important role in distracting them." Lin Xingchen explained his tactics, and the next day everyone began to disperse and not go to the city, but kept setting fire to the food that was about to be harvested.

This tactic was very effective. The death of five level nine mages made the empire dare not take the risk of sending out other mages, which gave Lin Xingchen enough opportunity to set the fire.

Along the way, anything that could be lit was set on fire, and countless civilians of the empire shed tears of despair as they watched the food in the sea of ​​fire.

Many members of the legion began to shrink back when they saw the civilians in tears. After realizing what was going on, Lin Xingchen didn't know how to tell them.

He held a meeting with everyone and explained the problems between the two countries clearly. If we don't burn the grain in the empire's fields, then it might be our grain that is burned by the empire.

This kind of explanation was not something he was good at, but fortunately the second battalion commander was a good political commissar and was able to guide these soft-hearted team members very well, otherwise Lin Xingchen really didn't know how to deal with it.

Lin Xingchen and his men were like a pack of wolves on the grassland, playing guerrilla warfare with the Empire, the hunter. They took advantage when they could and ran away when they couldn't. They set all kinds of fires as they passed by and everyone was busy having a lot of fun.

Unfortunately, the closer to the empire's core area, the more difficult it is to implement such tactics. However, the original strategic goal has been achieved, and Lin Xingchen led the legion and Darcy back to the main force.

In the battle on the grassland, the two sides fought on and off, but generally speaking, Kurma gained the advantage, and the Macedonian phalanx Batlay was unable to make a breakthrough.

During the battle between the two sides, no one noticed the changes in the sky until Darcy looked up at the sky over the battle zone and shouted.

He started with a curse learned from Lin Xingchen: "F*ck... Undead Scourge."
