Chapter 462: The Blood Clan Warriors Fighting under the Demon King's Command
At the same moment when that untimely word fell, a scorching light suddenly lit up above Kailan's head without warning!
His pupils shrank slightly, and he looked up at the sky, only to see a burning sun appearing below the clouds and directly above his head!
The scorching sun emitted a temperature high enough to melt steel, dyeing the entire forest a doomsday orange-red.
Accompanied by boundless pressure, the sun was like a punishment from the gods at the end of the world, smashing down fiercely on Kailan and the most elite Green Forest Army soldiers behind him!
Facing this sudden and devastating blow, there was no trace of fear on Kailan's face, which was distorted by fanaticism.
"Is this what you're capable of?"
He smiled arrogantly, without dodging or evading, and slashed his sword towards the sky!
The surging power of chaos was poured into the swinging sword. A visible black crack extended to the sky as he slashed, leaving an ugly and twisted scar in the air!
This sword——
It actually cut through the space!
"boom--!"
The dazzling sun collided violently with the dark crack, and was eventually split into two by the latter!
The violent energy turned into a rain of fire, pouring down in all directions, like molten steel pouring from the sky!
Countless Green Forest Army soldiers were unable to dodge and were instantly ignited, turning into twisted charcoal.
However, Kailan didn't care about it at all. The battle had reached this point, and the casualties of a few hundred-man teams would not affect the overall situation at all.
The soldiers under his command seemed to have lost their sense of death. They stood there silently, emitting a chilling aura of death from their bodies.
Instead, the Campbells and dwarves standing opposite them were shocked and horrified by this horrifying scene.
They are like the undead!
Moreover, it is a living undead!
At the edge of the army formation, a figure riding a warhorse quietly appeared beside Irene.
That man was Prince Colin.
He looked at Kailan calmly, the wand in his hand flashing with golden light, and he began to chant the next obscure and mysterious spell.
“Swift as the wind—!”
Not just "Swift as the Wind," but also "Steel Entanglement," "Shadow of Dust," and so on.
In just a moment, Luo Yan applied twelve of his most skilled BUFFs to Irene and her horse.
Feeling the trust in His Highness Colin's eyes, Irene no longer hesitated. She let out a clear battle cry, squeezed her legs against the horse's belly, and took the lead in charging.
At the same time as she was charging on her horse, a dazzling golden light converged on the blade of her raised sword, transforming into a heavy lance more than three meters long!
That was her father's weapon.
She can summon it to the mortal world without reciting any prayers.
However, unlike in the past, the light seemed even more dazzling than usual, so much so that Theresa, who was watching her, was surprised to see a familiar shadow in her back...
That's Aaron Campbell's shadow!
Princess Irene seems to have become stronger again, even catching up with her father...
"Citizen Cavalry—"
"charge!"
Looking at His Highness rushing towards the enemy camp, Theresa did not dare to delay. She raised the long sword in her hand and led the eager Campbell Citizen Cavalry to charge towards the Green Forest Army's flank position!
At the same time, the dwarf goat riders also followed at the same time, charging and firing at the Green Forest Army's positions with large-caliber flintlock rifles.
The front line is filled with smoke!
At the command of the officer, Campbell's privates raised their flintlock rifles in unison, pointing the black muzzles at the enemy formation that was also starting to charge.
“Fire!!”
Following the officer's order, the privates pulled the triggers in their hands, and in a dense smoke, the charging Green Army soldiers fell to the ground!
But they did not collapse!
Completely different from the encounter outside Jiliu Pass, this group of warriors who embodied the faith in Chaos were like fearless undead. The roar of their charge even drowned out the roar of their muskets!
"kill--!"
The army swept through the decaying forest like a tide and surged towards the lines of the Duchy of Campbell.
In the distance, the dwarf artillery positions emitted a deafening roar, and the whistling shells flew over the forest and hit the center of the Green Forest Army!
The shouts and smoke filled the entire forest, and the dense rain of bullets followed the tip of the gun in Irene's hand and rushed into the enemy camp!
Looking at the gun tip that was like a meteor, Kailan still did not dodge, and a smile of contempt and regret appeared on the corner of his mouth.
“Too weak!”
Just as the shining tip of the spear was about to pierce him, the dagger in his hand swept out like thunder.
"clang--!"
The sword blade and the gun tip collided!
The harsh sound of metal clashing almost tore everyone's eardrums!
Just as the blow that was powerful enough to penetrate the city wall was about to completely submerge Kailan, Theresa, who was standing not far away, was shocked to find that the shining lance had actually been covered with a layer of spider-web-like cracks!
"Bang—"
With just a crisp sound, the shining lance was like broken glass, shattered into pieces by the erosion of the chaotic power, and turned into flying fragments of light!
The violent impact threw Irene off the horse's back, leaving her in a chaotic parabola in the air.
but--
Her embarrassment lasted only a moment.
I saw the heroic figure turning in the air, stabilizing his body like a fallen leaf held by the air flow.
Irene forced herself to adjust her posture, and the lance in her hand transformed back into a sword. The sole of her boot and the blade of the sword landed steadily on the ground.
But even so, the huge impact force still made her blood surge in her chest and her knuckles felt numb!
Is this the strength of the Amethyst level...
It's so terrifying!
Irene didn't dare to be careless at all. She stared at the figure intently, adjusted her breathing rhythm, and stabilized the sword and her mind.
Seeing that this guy could still move after being hit by his sword, Kailan raised his eyebrows slightly, then sneered and suddenly exerted force with his legs, rushing forward towards the whistling hail of bullets!
“Die!”
Bang--!
The crisp sound of clashing swords rang out again, but this time it was not a clash of swords, but a contest between swords and magic!
A spike as thick as a python suddenly leaped out, and with a force no less powerful than Campbell's lance, it collided with Kailan's hastily swung dagger.
The boiling black gas shattered the whistling spikes without any suspense, but the huge force still caused Kailan to pause.
Taking advantage of the time Colin bought for herself with magic, Irene took off the bottle of reagent hanging around her waist, bit open the cork and drank it in one gulp.
The bright red liquid poured down her throat, giving her emerald green pupils a hint of scarlet outline, and her aura surged.
Potions?
Kailan was surprised, but didn't take it seriously. The dagger followed Irene like a shadow and collided with the light of legend in her hand!
"clang--!"
This is the second confrontation between the two sides!
Kailan slashed out dozens of swords in just a moment, and each sword shadow dragged a huge amount of black air. The dense sword shadows even formed a wall!
Facing Kailan's fierce attack, Irene did not give in at all.
She swung the long sword in her hand like the wind, and the meteor-like sword light collided with the dozens of black afterimages in the air, creating dazzling sparks.
Objectively speaking, Irene is clearly superior in swordsmanship and equipment, but Kailan still has the upper hand in pure strength.
Although his swordsmanship was completely unsystematic and could hardly be called swordsmanship, it exuded a primitive dominance. His sword was like the fangs of a wild beast, and every bite was aimed at the vital point!
That was a skill he had honed through fighting.
Although Irene had also experienced the baptism of war, she was still a little inexperienced compared to the large and small battles that Kailan had experienced.
Thanks to the buff magic Colin cast, otherwise she herself was not sure how long she could hold out in this fierce fight.
This guy's strength is even much higher than her father's old rival, Reggie Dragun, the previous generation Demon King of Thunder County!
After all, Reggie is only diamond level.
Seeing Irene gradually falling into disadvantage, Kailan was not in a hurry to end the battle. He continued to launch a violent attack while speaking in a mocking tone.
"Your Highness, with all due respect, your swordsmanship is only suitable for performance in the arena. You are still too naive to kill people."
Without waiting for Irene's answer, a voice that he hated suddenly floated into his ears.
"Really? I think Her Highness Irene's sword is much cleaner than yours."
At the same time that the voice floated into Kailan's ears, a warning suddenly arose in his heart, and he subconsciously jumped back.
The moment he left the spot, dozens of thick vines broke out of the ground and wrapped around the place where he had just stood like living things!
Colin's figure appeared at the other end of the battlefield, and the tip of the wand in his hand was flashing with emerald green light.
His movements did not stop because of a missed attack, but he continued to throw out a pre-prepared spell!
A roaring fire dragon gushed out from the magic wand, chasing Kailan's figure leaping in the air, and then bit him!
Dazzling flames exploded in the woods, and the flying wood chips and sparks knocked down a group of passing soldiers. Although Kailan was not injured, he was still in a very embarrassing situation.
"Another nobleman seeking death?"
Kailan swung the dagger that was blackened by flames and curled his lips in disdain, but there was a hint of vigilance in his heart.
He couldn't see through this man!
Unlike the little girl from the Campbell family, this smiling man made him feel an unfathomable pressure.
The pressure was no less than when he was listening to the inner voice of his heart.
At the same time that the man appeared, he felt a pair of eyes hidden behind the dark clouds looking at him.
Those are Urgos' eyes!
Looking at Kailan, who was in a mess but not actually hurt, Luo Yan was not surprised, but still felt helpless.
What he is best at is actually necromancy.
However, he happened to be wearing Colin's vest now, so he could only use fire and earth magic.
But it doesn’t matter.
At most it just takes a little more time.
"A person can have many identities. To describe me as aristocratic is too biased."
Luo Yan smiled and continued in a gentle and polite tone, "In comparison, I suggest you call me Roxelle Colin."
You can hate him when you go down, but there is no need to hate me.
Kailan was stunned for a moment, then laughed casually, but her eyes were fixed on him.
"Roxel Colin, interesting fellow, you're the second noble to tell me your full name... So you're platinum? Or diamond?"
Luo Yan said slowly.
"Aren't you trying to build a nation of equality? Why do you care what my status is?"
"Heh," Kailan sneered and clicked his tongue, "You're quite good at talking too."
Luo Yan appreciated his praise and nodded slightly.
"Of course, you can tell me whatever you want to hear. I can tell you anything."
"I want to hear your screams!"
As soon as the words fell, Kailan's body moved.
He shot towards Colin, who nodded slightly, like a cannonball, and swung the dagger in his hand. A pitch-black crack flashed across like lightning!
He doesn't care about martial ethics——
Only living people are qualified to talk about that stuff!
"Be careful--" Seeing the chaotic force that tore through space and hit Colin's face, Irene couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise.
Just as this exclamation came out, an incredible scene happened.
The sweeping black air passed straight through Colin's body, plowing a gully more than ten meters wide on the ground.
As for "Colin" who was hit by the dark chaotic energy, he disappeared like a broken soap bubble.
As if fate was just an illusion.
Kailan was suddenly startled.
Where are the people?
What disappeared was not only Colin's figure, but also his extremely restrained aura.
This sense of separation made him panic, and made the "Eternal Hunger Claw" subconsciously hold its breath as it stared at the battlefield.
The rolling black clouds are His breath.
Obviously, he had not expected to see the power that was so familiar to him here, nor had he expected why this power would stand together with the Chosen One of Saint Sith...
Kailan's gaze moved quickly, but he caught a glimpse of a butterfly out of the corner of his eye.
Before he could react and figure out what it was, a long whip transformed from a pitch-black flame replaced the butterfly and hit the tip of his nose straight!
"boom--!"
Kailan swung his sword to block the whistling attack, but the flying sparks still splashed on him.
That was no ordinary flame.
It was both incredibly hot and bone-chillingly cold, as if it penetrated through his flesh and blood and reached the deepest part of his soul...
From the torture of ice and fire, he could faintly hear the wails of the dead, as if thousands of evil spirits were demanding his life!
His pupils constricted slightly.
"Necromancer?"
"Shhh."
Luo Yan raised the index finger of his left hand to make a gesture of silence, smiled, and disappeared from the sweeping sword light, standing in the forest dozens of meters away.
It is not rigorous to describe his black flame as necromancy, which is the product of the hybridization of necromancy and fire magic.
He had mastered this skill long ago.
Faintly, Irene sensed an evil aura, but she didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just a trick of Chaos.
Taking advantage of the opportunity Colin had bought for her, she took a step forward, waving the sword in her hand like the wind, sweeping towards Kailan who was still in shock.
"ah!!!"
Along with Irene's crisp shout, the golden light that fell from the sky was like a falling meteor, colliding fiercely with Kailan's hastily attacked dagger, creating a sky full of light feathers!
The dazzling light burned the two people fighting at the same time. The sacred light gave equal punishment to the Chosen Ones of Chaos and the Blood Clan.
Obviously.
Even though she could gain unlimited lives after becoming a vampire, the Legend of Light was not without side effects for Irene.
Most of the legends established by the ancestors of the Campbell family are attached with a sacred halo, and she would hurt herself if she is not careful.
But luckily she still has "Colin".
Just as she gritted her teeth and endured the burning of the holy light, hundreds of pitch-black fire rains suddenly enveloped the two people fighting.
Out of trust in Colin, Irene was almost defenseless and was hit on the back and shoulder without warning.
Feeling the heat coming through the armor, she was about to cry out in pain, but found that there was no pain as she had expected.
This flame...
Why do you feel a little comfortable?
Kailan was the only one who was burned. He let out a low growl and took a few steps back before he could stand firm, as if his soul had been severely damaged.
Bathed in the black flames, Irene couldn't help but let out a soft hum. Her eyes blurred for a moment, and she felt that all the fatigue in her body was healed by the warm flames.
But she quickly came to her senses, and then was shocked by her own reaction. She looked at Colin who was standing not far away in panic.
This is--
"This is the secret magic of the Gutaf Kingdom, a black sacred fire woven from ancient dragon language!" Luo Yan raised his wand and spoke without hesitation, "Now is the time, Irene! Don't let him go!"
"Bullshit!" Kailan cursed loudly, and the chaotic energy in his body rose with boiling anger, slowly healing his severely damaged spirit.
I see--
It's the secret method of dragon language!
Irene breathed a sigh of relief, and then her sharp eyes instantly locked onto Kailan, waving the Light of Legend and attacking him again!
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!”
A powerful roar and a sword as swift as the wind came at the same time, and this time the person chasing him changed from Kailan to Irene!
Bathed in black flames, she seemed like a different person, and every move she made was filled with fierce murderous intent!
"clang--!!!"
The colliding swords created a hurricane in the forest, and the nearby oak trees broke and fell to the ground with a loud bang!
Feeling the impact coming from the hilt of the sword, Kailan's face showed a trace of surprise, and for the first time, a solemn expression appeared between his brows.
What a powerful force!
He was surprised that the strange black flames could not hurt Irene, and he was puzzled as to why she seemed to have endless energy and even became stronger as the fight went on!
The whistling sword edge was like an iron hammer, and the holy feathers of light were faintly mixed with the breath of death.
Kailan was completely confused.
What the hell is this guy?!
How could one person possess both the power of holy light and the power of the undead?!
Although it is true that he has the strength of amethyst level, he cannot withstand such repeated consumption.
Especially on the battlefield close at hand, Campbell's army had already gained the upper hand.
If he fails to put an end to Campbell's hero, he will lose everything even if he wins the duel!
However, every time Kailan tried to concentrate his strength to finish off Irene first, the howling black flames would follow him like a shadow, infusing Irene with power while tearing at his soul!
That black flame was simply unreasonable.
Since he didn't have to worry about hurting his own people, the magician named Colin could cast spells without any scruples.
The endless stream of strange spells, combined with Irene's increasingly sharp sword, continued to compress his living space.
Facing Irene, who was fighting more and more bravely while bathing in the black flames, Kailan finally began to feel a little tired.
He realized that if he continued fighting like this, he would definitely lose!
If you want to win this duel, you must first get rid of the mage who is hiding behind this woman and chanting continuously!
At this moment, he suddenly caught a glimpse from the corner of his eye and saw Colin coughing in the distance and taking out a blue medicine bottle from his arms.
Kailan's heart was filled with joy.
That guy doesn't have enough magic power!
Not wanting to miss this golden opportunity, Kailan roared like a beast, and the suppressed power of chaos exploded instantly.
Taking advantage of the pause in Colin's spellcasting, he swung his sword, forcing Irene, who was chasing him, to take two steps back, and the sole of his boot made a deep pit in the ground.
That is the power of amethyst level!
Without Colin's support, Irene relied solely on the power of the Light of Legend in her hand, and for a while it was really difficult to resist.
However, Kailan's target was not her, he knew very well who the biggest threat was.
The man that even Urgos was afraid of...
If he didn't kill that guy, he even suspected that even if he chopped the girl down, the guy would be able to pull her up with magic.
Who can stand this?!
With a sudden force of his legs, Kailan grabbed the dagger with his backhand and suddenly stabbed Colin, who was drinking the potion with his head tilted back, like a flash of lightning.
He could even see the rolling Adam's apple and vaguely smell the clean and refreshing scent on the collar.
A victorious smile appeared on Kailan's lips. He would never fail this time!
His eyes were blood red, and the chaotic power in his body was running to the extreme. The sword blade that tore through space swept from all directions towards the figure that was more slippery than a loach.
"Die for me!!!"
The connection between the entire space and the surroundings has been severed. Even if a demigod is here, it will be impossible to avoid this inevitable blow!
However, in just a second, the hideous smile froze on his face.
His sword didn't penetrate Colin's throat.
Instead, a colorful butterfly flapped its wings and landed lightly on the tip of his nose.
In just a moment, the beautiful and fragile butterfly was torn to pieces by the whistling sword wind.
But that's all.
Kailan screamed and tried to retract the whistling sword to block, but it was too late.
"What the hell is this?!"
"I call it a surprise."
A ghostly sound blew against his eardrums.
The sound was not far away from him, even less than ten meters away, but it seemed as if there was a vast ocean between them.
"it's over."
Luo Yan gently waved the wand in his hand and announced his end in a gentle voice.
Kailan's heart skipped a beat, and the omen of death crept up his brow for the first time.
"No--"
Unfortunately, the gods did not stand with him this time.
In fact, He gave him a chance, and the person chosen by God did not point the sword at him right away.
Compared to Chaos, the Demon King is still very reasonable.
At the moment when the whisper fell, thousands of spears formed by pitch-black flames pierced Kailan's body like a net falling from the sky!
His eyes widened and his muscles tensed, but he could not resist the coming of death.
A pitch-black spear pierced his heart, but not just his heart.
And his soul!
'ah--!'
His soul was out of his body and he roared in fear. He tried to struggle to escape, but an uncontrollable force grabbed the back of his neck and dragged him towards the dark clouds in the sky.
Luo Yan looked up at the sky and felt sorry for him for two seconds. He didn't know which world's nest this poor soul would drift to and what fate it would accept.
I'm afraid only Urgos knows that.
Looking at the group of evil spirits wandering in the sky, he always felt that the people in Twilight Province should not be the worst off.
At the moment when the pitch-black spear pierced Kailan, Irene's sword also swept across his neck like a shadow.
This kind-hearted man couldn't bear to see him suffer, even though he was an apostle of chaos.
However, as a mortal, she did not know that his soul had long been taken away by Urgos, and what was left in its place was just a burnt-out shell.
What awaits him will be torture a hundred times more cruel than physical torture.
After all, death is a matter of a moment, and only by living can one experience every kind of suffering.
Kailan's head fell to the ground, and the gushing blood spilled all over the ground. A generation of powerful heroes fell.
In terms of the number of murders alone, he probably set a record in the history of Twilight Province.
Shaking the blood-stained sword, Irene took a breath. After confirming that Kailan was dead, she turned her gaze to Colin and walked over anxiously.
"Colin, are you okay?"
When Kailan rushed towards him just now, she felt like her heart was about to stop.
But now it seems that my worries were a bit unnecessary.
"As you can see, I'm fine."
Looking at Irene who was approaching with a look of concern, Luo Yan smiled gently and wiped the blood off her cheek with his index finger. "But you, you had me worried to death just now."
His "Butterfly of All Things" needs to fly for a while.
As a result, as soon as I put the buff on her, this guy rushed up like a chicken with blood injected.
When Irene's cheek was touched, it was as if a switch was pressed, and a blush instantly burned on her face.
"I, I, I... I have nothing to worry about. A mere Chaos Apostle can't hurt me at all!"
She explained hurriedly, subconsciously taking a half step back, and her heel hit the tree root, causing her to stumble and almost fall.
You can tell she's really panicked.
Otherwise, with her strength, the tree would probably fall before her.
Luo Yan smiled and reached out to grab Irene, helping her steady herself again despite her bewilderment.
"Since everything is fine, I feel relieved."
"I……"
Looking at Irene, whose face flushed red and who wanted to say something but didn't know how to start, Luo Yan thought for a moment and turned his gaze to the battlefield in the distance which was gradually coming to an end.
"Rather than worrying about me, there are more important things waiting for you to do now."
In fact, he realized that even without Irene commanding at the front line, Theresa could still command well.
The Campbells had a high level of military literacy.
Even if the commander was killed in battle, each century could continue to fight under the leadership of the centurion, and the centurion fought under the orders of the thousand-man commander.
It was precisely because of this that Irene could let go and fight with Kailan, and leave her back to others without worry.
However, he hadn't figured out how to explain his situation yet, so he could only let Irene do something else for a while.
He still needs to think about how to edit it specifically.
However, what he didn't expect was that Irene didn't even think about it that way.
Now, let alone "Dragon Language Magic", she would probably believe it even if Mr. Colin said that the Dragon God was practicing backflips in his house.
Irene didn't move. She stood there for a long time, her face getting redder and redder, and finally she could only whisper a few words.
“…Nothing is more important than you.”
Luo Yan was stunned for a moment, then a caring smile appeared on his face, as if he was looking at a child who was trying to start a truck but couldn't reach the accelerator.
Is this the sword that the honest man swung with all his strength?
I was a little touched by its cuteness.
