Chapter 1038 Enemies From the Abyss
"This is..." Lightning couldn't help but widen his eyes and slowed down.
There were tens of thousands of evil beasts. They formed a wide black carpet on the snowfield. Their surging bodies reminded her of the scene when ants were eating corpses.
But this time what they faced was not a corpse at their mercy, but an equally brutal devil.
Those skeletal monsters that were as big as the Miracle Building moved slowly among the beasts, seemingly being pushed by successive enemy attacks. However, every time it landed, several evil beasts that had no time to avoid would be trampled to pieces. Compared with its size, the four twisted long legs were as slender as tree branches, but the little girl knew that if viewed up close, the monster's limbs would probably be thicker than Ms. Agatha's mage tower.
Numerous crazy demons clung to its belly, launching wave after wave of spear attacks from above. However, the evil beast could only move forward, and it was difficult to make an effective counterattack.
"Magic Parasite".
She couldn't help but think of this title.
A deformed devil between a living creature and a dead creature. It has no fixed shape and lives between the skeleton and the black stone like a sarcoma. It relies on magic power to attack or act. The new spider demon that appeared in the Battle of Wangbei Slope, and the spider demon that appeared in front of us now. The behemoths probably all belong to the same type of devil.
No matter how sharp the fangs are, it will basically end up being knocked against a stone. The helpless group of evil beasts can only avoid those skeleton monsters and attack the main force in the rear.
Without the protection of the city wall, this should be a fierce battle.
However, a wild beast that has fallen into madness may have an advantage against unarmed humans, but it is obviously somewhat powerless against a mad demon with excellent strength and speed. Although there are many hybrids among them, the devils also put hell lords, siege beasts and spider demons at the front of the front. The speed at which they killed hybrids was hardly slower than that of the First Army. Although the number of evil beasts was several times greater than that of devils, the latter had the upper hand in terms of momentum.
Probably sensing that the speed had slowed down, Maisie stuck her head out again. Seeing such a shocking scene, she couldn't help but gasp.
"The evil beast is fighting the devil?"
"This should be the reason why Evil Moon Neverwinter City is so peaceful this year." Lightning pretended to be mature, "But one thing is very strange. Didn't those ancient Taqila witches say that evil beasts always come looking for relics of the gods? What? If I were the Devil King, I would definitely not bring the relics to this wasteland with nothing. In other words, there should be another reason for them to gather here. It’s a pity that Sylvie can’t go with us. Otherwise, we will definitely be able to collect more intelligence.”
Maisie tilted her head, "Then do you still want to surprise them?"
"Of course!" Lightning said without hesitation, "We are now so close to the ruins of Taquila, and the terrifying beasts have not come to trouble us, which means that they have no spare time to pay attention to the surrounding situation. For us, It’s a great opportunity.”
There is no doubt that devils and evil beasts are enemies of His Majesty Roland. If these monsters can fight more fiercely, it can also reduce some pressure on the expedition plan after the beginning of spring.
She briefly estimated the magic power in her body. If she flew faster than the speed of sound, she could last for about three to four minutes. To be on the safe side, it was absolutely safe to leave half of the magic power for escape. She wanted to shake it in the remaining two minutes. The devil's defense line, the flying position chosen is crucial.
The little girl set her sights on the skeleton monster.
From a distance, these huge deformed structures look like crooked stools. Their bodies are made of flat black stone skeletons. They are quite similar to the glider runways built by His Majesty on the east coast. They are simply ideal low-altitude pass-through targets.
According to the results of the ability test, the lower she is from the ground, the greater the damage she will cause when flying. If she can fly close to the enemy's body, then the mad demon in the abdomen will also be greatly affected.
Since her high-level awakening, she has been forced by His Majesty to teach her a lot about the principles of high-speed flight. She also learned that the energy detonated when crossing the sound barrier is closely related to her body size. If she exceeds the speed of sound in the sky above Neverwinter on the day of her awakening The person is Maisie, and I’m afraid the whole city will suffer.
Therefore, the little girl had no intention of defeating the devil in one fell swoop.
All she had to do was ask the mad demon to hold off on attacking.
Since there was a death zone directly below the skeleton monster, the evil beasts had to avoid it to both sides, greatly hindering their advancement speed. Without these unscrupulous enemies, the Devil's rear defense line would surely be under greater pressure.
Even if the plan ultimately failed, it would have no impact on her.
After making the decision, Lightning pushed Maisie's head into her arms and dived towards the skeleton monster closest to her!
At that moment, she had completely forgotten Roland's instructions.
No one can catch the tail of the sound, it's time to show each other your real flying skills!
The distance of several kilometers passed in an instant, and when she appeared above the battlefield, she had entered a realm of silence.
But that was only in her opinion.
In the eyes of the devil, rolling thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, and continued to press towards the earth. It was the detonation caused by the collision of front and rear shock waves. When the lightning changed its direction and passed five meters directly above the skeleton monster, it exploded. The shock wave suddenly turned the snow into clouds of white mist, almost covering the monster's entire body. The deafening explosion also made the devil roar in pain!
But she had no time to observe the effect. There were five identical targets waiting for her on the battlefield.
Just when he was about to fly past the third skeleton monster, a sudden change occurred!
A figure suddenly appeared on the bare platform. No one noticed where it came from, but the moment it stood there, it instantly captured all her attention. Even though the distance between the two was far apart, lightning But he felt cold all over, and even his fingers couldn't help trembling.
It was a devil, but it had a very similar appearance to a human. Apart from the blue skin, there was almost no other difference. His facial features were extraordinary, and his golden eyes seemed deeper than the abyss of hell. Just by looking at him, Lightning was like a frog being stared at by a poisonous snake, feeling instinctive fear from the bottom of his heart.
What a monster is this!
She could feel the magic power surging on the opponent's body. It was so powerful that it even distorted her surrounding vision. The oppressive feeling was almost tangible. She was obviously flying at high speed, but she seemed to be stuck in a sticky quagmire. , is getting closer to it little by little.
escape!
Run away!
The consciousness in her mind was warning her not to fly anymore and to escape immediately!
But her body couldn't move at all, as if she was completely out of control.
And the devil slowly raised its right arm towards her.
At this moment, she felt a sharp pain in her chest!
It was as if someone had driven a nail straight into her body
It's Maisie!
As the pain flowed throughout her body, her limbs returned to her control in an instant, and the passage of time returned to normal.
Lightning suddenly raised his body, jumped diagonally upward, escaped from the opponent as fast as possible, and flew towards Neverwinter City without looking back.
