Chapter 85 Little Devil
=======================
The snow melted slowly, and the withered flowers and scattered snowflakes danced in the wind at the same time.
In the Holy City, high walls were erected outside the Fortress of Light, and magicians were constantly casting spells to reinforce them.
During this time, several figures floated by like white mist and came to the vicinity of the temple. When he finally stopped, his breath became even more erratic.
"The defense deployment south of the Hoth Ring Mountain has been completed, and the teleportation array has been modified. If someone other than us uses it, it will be sucked into the space gap along with the polluted Anluo Beast Cave."
"A total of 13,000 magicians above level 10 have responded to the call of the Holy See. Among them, there are three legendary magicians, and two more are under negotiation."
"Clergy from all over the country have successfully taken control of 120 megacities."
The people reporting the incident clearly looked different, but their emotionless faces made them look like the same person.
The power of the Holy See is mostly distributed in the south. Once a civil war breaks out, the Hoth Mountains will serve as the boundary for a standoff and defense.
"Also, the sorcerer has arrived."
This secret briefing ended quickly, and due to the presence of the Demon King, more details on the deployment of core combat forces were not given.
The Saint looked at the Demon King.
The man leaned back on his chair arrogantly and majestically, not showing any restraint even though he was alone in the Holy Court.
"Two princes and three thousand high-level demon generals have been transferred to the country. They will help deal with the elves."
The highest priest frowned: "That's all?"
The devil raised his lips playfully.
The Saint raised her hand first to stop the priest from speaking: "Don't forget that there are dragons in the Demon Realm."
Once the princes come to the human domain, the demons will most likely be robbed.
The highest priest was still somewhat dissatisfied, as this battle was a matter of life and death.
He said in a deep voice: "I heard that the two new princes of the Demon Realm are very close to Iliad, why not..."
Before he finished speaking, he felt the chilling murderous intent.
"You are really old." The Demon King said mercilessly: "The people involved in the civil war are the human race. Do I have to weaken the demon race's fighting power for you?"
The use of honorifics is clearly a warning.
In fact, the devil was not angry at all, he just ended the topic coldly.
The highest priest looked unhappy after being refuted, but he didn't say anything more.
Looking at the reporter again, the highest priest said, "You don't need to go back. Keep an eye on the outer court."
The person reporting the incident thought for a moment and added another thing: "Iliad secretly conducted an investigation in the fiefdom not long ago. This is the last video our spy sent before he lost contact."
A video of a man playing the piano by the fountain in the square was leaked. The Saint and the Demon King looked at each other in surprise after watching it...
Falling in love too early?
When they turned their heads again, it was unknown what they were thinking. The corners of their mouths were more or less raised, and there was a deeper calculation in their eyes.
The spies sent out report once every half an hour.
Now it's a long delay.
The Saint said without any hesitation: "No need to attract other forces and magicians."
She gave the order in an extremely calm tone:
"Go to war."
————
After firing the first shot, Luke experienced for the first time what it meant to be truly enraged.
But what was burning was the passion of the Holy See, the fuse of their own land.
The dark clouds in the sky multiplied and gathered into a formation. The clusters of vast shadows finally took shape. Thousands of magic warships surrounded the high-altitude area ahead and launched an attack directly on the mid-air formation.
Everything happened incredibly fast.
There are countless streams of light coming in the distance.
The vanguard magicians all stood behind the battleship. They raised their flags and shouted "Revenge for our fellow kin who died in vain!"
Klin Watchtower is the most powerful area, where every citizen is a soldier. The captain of the guard reacts quickly and immediately organizes a counterattack.
Tens of thousands of soldiers confronted the huge army pressing on the border.
A clear dragon roar sounded from the sky, and the cold and turbid breath exhaled from its mouth easily melted the fireball.
"Aim!" the commanding priest shouted.
All the roaring magic from the battleship was directed towards the Frost Dragon's belly, emptying the magic box, but with little effect.
There were three giant dragons above, one of which circled over to the Klin watchtower and spoke in human language, which was Leo's voice.
"Blanny and I will hold back most of the troops, and you can retreat while the chaos is going on."
Luke said without any pretense: "Okay!"
These people were trying to catch him. As long as he appeared somewhere else, the crisis of Klin Tower would be solved.
The dragon descended, and its sharp claws that could crush mountains lightly pressed on Luke's head.
"You..." The rest of the sentence was not finished and replaced with "be careful in everything".
In fact, Luke could have chosen to lurk in the human realm from the beginning and wait for an opportunity to act.
But he stayed at the border of the Demon Realm with only one purpose, to tie up most of the fighting force.
Once the war starts, in order to capture him alive, the Holy See will definitely send a lot of Holy See troops to set up defenses along the way.
In the flickering dragon eyes, it seemed as if he saw again the child who escaped from the explosion in the Holy City that day. No matter what time, he would not fail and would make the most decisive and beneficial decision.
The dragon soared again and headed for the border battlefield.
Lujia stared at the dragon's shadow disappearing behind the clouds and said, "Let's go to the human realm through the capital."
When being baptized in the blood pool, the Demon Ancestor said that there was a secret teleportation array at the bottom of the blood pool.
Just as he was about to transfer space, he was grabbed by a slender hand.
Quill stared at him: "Luke, there may be another bad thing that will happen to you."
Luke: “…”
Use adjectives and nouns properly.
Quill said half-jokingly, but in a serious tone: "Have you ever thought that in the past everyone subconsciously regarded Klin Watchtower and other places as barren places."
It's a desert, with no teleportation points and sparse vegetation. All development has to take a detour here, and it's a place that people wouldn't even visit during normal hunting trips to compete for the crown prince.
Lujia immediately realized something: "Almost none of these fiefdoms have been surveyed for mineral resources!"
The matter of the magic mine cannot be concealed. Once it is exposed, countless covetous eyes will inevitably be cast towards these areas.
Pies really do fall from the sky, and fate really does have a price.
Lu Jia then said to the captain of the guards, "I will ask Prince Aman to come over immediately and ask the Lord of Hongrong City to lend me some troops. How is the Fifth Prince recovering from his injuries?"
Guard Captain: "About 70%."
Lujia: "Let her command the existing troops to cooperate with Aman."
As long as Alicia is smart enough, she should know what is best for her.
The fiefdoms are too scattered and there are too many of them. The existing dragons in the Demon Realm are probably not enough. He was about to contact Leo who had just left, and found that the other party had already sent him a message.
[Support from Dragon Island is on the way.] 】
Luke felt warm in his heart.
"Your Highness, there is actually another good thing."
After making sure that there were no adjectives before this good deed, Luke breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Say it."
Guard Captain: "Mysterious packages have appeared in Moko City over the past two days. After opening them, they turned out to be a batch of powerful high-end weapons. We have asked several blacksmiths and magicians to check them and make sure there are no problems."
Luke thought about it and guessed who sent it—the dwarves.
Now that we have stopped receiving foreign tourists, it is impossible for the things to be delivered from outside. The temporary factory built by the dwarves in Moko City is still there, as they are the only ones who have this craft.
He was quite surprised that the dwarves were secretly sponsoring him.
"Distribute the weapons to the soldiers and make sure to defend the magic mine."
"yes."
After giving the order, Luke took the quill's hand in his own, and a strong ripple appeared in the air, and the two disappeared from where they were.
The captain of the guard who was about to leave the watchtower widened his eyes. It was His Highness who chanted the spell.
Only a twelfth-rank great magician can freely perform space teleportation. Isn’t Your Highness a tenth-rank great magician? !
The Demon Realm has been tight on the outside but loose on the inside recently.
There were not many checkpoints along the way. It seemed that just as the Demon King said, as long as the dragons did not enter the main battlefield to fight the demons, he would not interfere with the Demon Realm.
The real battlefield only took place in the Klin Watchtower that was burned by the magic mine.
When they were almost reaching the Demon City, high in the sky, Luke changed into flying mode.
A long sword appeared in his hand. The Sage's Sword, which had been repaired by soaking in the power of faith day by day, had almost recovered its original gap.
The dust flew in the air and landed on the sword, shining brightly.
"I am now at the twelfth level, one level away from becoming a legendary magician. Once the war begins, you must fully cooperate with me and make up for this gap."
The Sage's Sword made a positive sword sound.
——Martyrdom?
Luke: ...
When the war was over, the first thing he would do was to rate the films.
The specific combat strategy was discussed through video conference before leaving Elf Island.
At that time, the saints will stop the demon king, the law enforcers will maintain the public order in the city and will not participate in the battle, and some high-ranking human leaders will be sent to guard the border to prevent foreign invasion.
The Elf King will use the Fortress of Light as the center to break the blockade and narrow the circle of war.
What Luke needs to do most right now is to travel these millions of miles and delay the Holy See Army.
The capital was within reach, and Luke and Quill cast an invisibility spell at the same time, heading straight for the blood pool.
Now that the Demon King is gone, they are still able to go anywhere with their strength.
After the last trace of the Demon Ancestor's consciousness disappeared, the energy of the blood pool declined significantly.
Luke stared at the statue of the Demon Ancestor for a moment, and began the necessary feudal superstition: "Ancestors bless you."
You also think that I am more suitable to be the new Demon King.
After praying, he forced a drop of blood out from his fingertips, which spread out and turned into mist that enveloped the feather pen, temporarily blocking the foreign aura of the other party.
"Walk!"
The blood pool teleportation array had fallen into disrepair after years of neglect, and in an instant the two of them seemed to have fallen into a flush toilet.
…
I don't know how much time had passed, but less than a hundred miles away from the border, a cyclone appeared in the air, and two figures staggered out from the center of the vortex.
We finally left the Demon Realm, but the sound of gunfire never stopped.
The clash of magic formed a honeycomb-shaped wormhole in the sky. The magician controlled the chaotic airflow and got involved in a fight.
The nearby area had been turned into a war zone at the speed of light. Luke swept his divine sense over it and saw that some of the priests were clearly conducting a carpet search for something.
Both sides temporarily hid behind a cumulus cloud and hovered at the maximum altitude.
He rubbed his hands together and pointed in the direction of one of the Holy See's outposts: "Go ahead."
The truth is projected accurately.
After the tenth level, Luke's faith became more and more gentle, and sometimes even a small insect could not feel the threat from him.
It was not until the ball of light was almost a thousand meters away that the Holy Court magicians stationed below finally realized that something was wrong. They saw pale faces reflected in their white robes.
The most powerful leader saw a familiar figure emerging in the sky.
"It's Iliad! Set up the defense!"
"Quick, notify others!"
The war started earlier than expected, and these teams that had just arrived nearby had no time to set up their formations.
The ball of light exploded, and there were screams below, but the news got out in advance.
The warships surrounding the Klin Watchtower immediately changed direction, and dark clouds were sweeping towards the town of Vick with the force of a hurricane.
Luke raised an eyebrow: "Done."
The army has moved here from the demon border.
The horn was blown in the south, and all sea routes were blocked. The Holy See army also marched straight in from the east. The Holy See's faith was most widely spread south of the Hoth Mountain Ring, and the local army suffered repeated defeats.
Quill casts a protection spell, congealing a barrier.
Lujia quickly spread out the map. "If we want to enter the Fortress of Light, we only have two routes. We can either start from the mountain pass, reach Port Yaman and then go straight through the dangerous sea, or we can take a detour to the City of Stone and then transfer to Fort Haiwa."
The latter route is farther, but safer. Haiwa Castle is the garrison of the Ninth Legion, loyal to the saint.
Luke's eyes were fixed on the first high-risk route.
If you take the second route, the only teleportation arrays in the military will lead directly to the gates of the holy city. There is still a long distance from outside the Holy City to the Fortress of Light.
Finally, Luke's gaze and Quill's gaze fell on one place almost at the same time: the First Magic Academy.
Taking the first route, they can transfer at the First Magic Academy.
The First Magic Academy was only separated from the Fortress of Light by a monster forest. Half of the senior members of the academy supported the Saint, and there were also many students who worshipped Luke.
It is impossible for the Holy See to completely control this place.
Luke made a decision immediately: "The Hoth Ring Mountain must have set up a trap, with warships in the sky and the Holy Court Army underground. There is not much room left for us. Let's pass under their feet."
Feather pen: “…”
Lujia stared at the storage ring and said meaningfully: "Although they have a lot of people, I am very rich."
If you have money, you can be more arrogant about some things.
…
The Hoth Mountains are vast, and the Holy Court has set up defenses around the edge of the mountains.
Not only is there a legendary great magician here, there are also at least 20,000 Holy Court troops distributed here. There are defenses set up every three steps, and each team of four people guards each direction.
No one knows a child better than his mother. The saint obviously guessed that Luke would most likely take this road, so she did not hesitate to station her top combat force there.
During each shift, at least a hundred Holy Court troops patrolled.
"I don't know why the higher-ups are so nervous. I always feel that Iliad will not come here. The south is our world."
Before he could finish his words, a figure suddenly appeared in front of him and he was startled.
After the leading magician appeared, he did not even look at the Holy Court Army who were speaking, but looked around coldly.
All the Holy Court troops immediately became alert upon seeing this.
The great magician frowned, clearly having sensed something before.
After notifying the high-altitude air force to search the air, he began to patrol the ground with concern, and finally stopped on a relatively soft piece of land.
With a flick of his sleeves, a deep pit suddenly appeared on the ground, with white bones underneath.
Countless densely packed insects were moving around the bones.
There were countless dead monsters in the mountains, and their weak energy often attracted insects to build nests or devour them. The great magician then put away his vigilance and said in a cold voice: "Everyone, pay attention. Don't let a single bird go."
"yes!"
Amid the sound vibrations, no one noticed that there were some inconspicuous bones hidden under the Warcraft skeleton, which were moving by using the sound of insects biting as cover.
Not far away, at the edge of the mountain, a small stone rolled all the way in.
Luke vowed not to forget this sad day and rolled all the way into the Hoth Mountain.
Just when everything was going well, a terrifying beam of magic light suddenly shot out.
Luke suddenly changed back into human form and dodged.
When he came to his senses, he was surrounded by troops on all sides.
The legendary magician sneered: "Do you really think you can hide it from me?"
Luke narrowed his eyes. He was not lucky enough to think he could get out of the mountains.
But it was unexpected that it was discovered so quickly.
Both sides were locked in position almost at the same time, and the feather pen in the pile of bones was surrounded in three layers inside and outside.
Luke's eyes suddenly fell on the compass-like object in the legendary magician's hand.
The great magician said sarcastically: "Yes, it's all thanks to you guys."
The Holy Court’s copycat terminal failed, but they developed something that could detect the terminal’s signal.
All Holy Court troops on this trip are not allowed to carry terminals, so that once a signal appears, it will mean that a stranger has sneaked in.
The great magician moved quickly. The moment he raised his hand, tens of thousands of Holy Court soldiers obeyed his command and rushed up with weapons in hand.
"kill!"
On the top of the mountain, thousands of soldiers were holding strange energy banners with special spells painted on them. Luke guessed that the Demon King had already told the Saint the identity of the feather pens, and now these were objects used to restrain the Necromancer.
The flags were waving, and strange winds formed wind nests in the air. The legendary magician was watching eagerly, ready to deliver a fatal blow.
Luka rubbed a ball of light of truth, forced some magicians to retreat, and shouted in the direction of the quill: "Blast the mountain!"
All the attack spells hit the mountain, and the rolling rocks fell into the valley.
"Innocent."
The legendary magic shattered several rocks above his head with ease and came straight towards Lujia.
However, before he could reach Luka, he was stopped by the quill.
The Holy Court has a profound foundation, and the Holy Court troops guarding the Hoth Ring Mountain are at least level seven. When tens of thousands of level seven troops collectively launch magical assistance, the energy is astronomical.
After taking the blow with all his strength, the feather pen was exhausted and his face turned slightly pale.
Without giving him any chance to breathe, the legendary magician ordered a second round of attack. In three rounds at most, he would be able to take down the two men.
On the other side, Luke still found time to blast the mountain during the fight.
The legendary magician commanded in an orderly manner: "The high-altitude air force will form a battle array. Be careful that he will take advantage of the chaos to escape from above!"
The Holy Court Army was well-trained and gathered in the sky near the falling rocks. Their flags continued to point directly at the feather pens below, playing a certain role in restraining the demons.
Luke increased his speed and blasted the mountain.
In an instant, the falling rocks were like snowflakes, fluttering down.
The legendary magician watched him struggle coldly, then raised his hand and smashed the rocks easily.
A sudden change occurs! This time, the boulder did not turn into powder directly like before.
The surrounding space suddenly became chaotic, and the vortex formed was even more vigorous than the one previously gathered by the white flag.
The legendary magician reacted in time and forcibly used up his magic power to pull himself out. Despite this, many horrible cracks still appeared on his body.
At the same spot, hundreds of Holy Court soldiers disappeared silently.
What the hell?
In the distance, the Holy Court Army inexplicably appeared in another place.
Everything happened so fast that they were all confused.
"Why am I here?"
"Hey, you're here too?"
"Look, the captain is here too."
It doesn't look like the underworld, so how come a team has a reunion early?
After the initial shock, the legendary magician on the battlefield suddenly reacted and shouted, "Be careful of these falling rocks, some of them may be space scrolls!"
So cunning! The great magician's teeth were almost broken.
How despicable a person must be to come up with such a perverted strategy? !
Once you resist, it will be regarded as an indirect tearing of the space scroll, and you and the people nearby will be directly teleported to an unknown place.
However, the great magician was entangled in the feather pen, and the other Holy Court soldiers were thrown into disarray. They had no way to effectively stop Luke from casting the transformation spell on the scroll.
The falling rocks in the sky were like copy and paste, increasing in number.
"Damn it!" Who can find the time to distinguish which is the space scroll while attacking?
Relying on his wings and the strength of the twelfth level, Lujia calmly shuttled among the Holy Court Army, and even "kindly" helped them activate some of them.
The whole process was really played out as I sent you away, thousands of miles away.
Who says war must be bloody?
He first dispersed the soldiers and waited until the big boss was defeated before coming back to recruit them. Luka sighed that he was really a good future demon king who understood courtesy, righteousness, integrity and shame.
More and more white lights flashed, and groups of people were teleported away.
The most fatal thing is that the morale and formation are broken. The captain of the Holy Court Army detachment tried to reassure his men: "A single space scroll is worth a thousand gold coins. He can't hold on... for how long..."
The tone of the following words was inexplicably weak.
Suddenly I remembered, this bastard is richer than his parents!
--------------------
Excerpt from Luke's diary:
Where you fell, there you rise!
When traveling through time, a space scroll must be obtained by stealing from other people. Now standing in front of you is a brand new scroll, Dun Dun Shujia!
I have mentioned several times before that Lujia often hoards space scrolls, so I won’t repeat it here~
To recall, after Luka obtained the tree core, his strength increased by more than eleven levels, and after taking the Four Symbols Star Bead, it increased to the twelfth level.
After all, the Holy Court is a big villain with a deep background, and it is not easy to defeat it. I try my best to write it in an interesting and light-hearted way [heart]
