Chapter 389 Demon Realm
Today is expected to be updated four times, and the second chapter will be around 8 pm.
——————
The legendary warrior who shot the arrow is called Gong Ke, and he is a well-known warrior in the entire Holy Lion Empire and even in the human world. Because the regular warriors in Eslaze are either warriors or magicians, only Gong Ke, who also practices fighting spirit, is a bow warrior.
With a strong body trained by practicing fighting spirit, and a longer attack distance than ordinary magicians, Gong Ke has a high status even in the Holy Lion Empire where there are many masters.
Gong Ke is quite confident in the attack he launched. Not only did he pour a lot of fighting spirit into this arrow, but he also used a precious alchemical arrow with multiple magic effects such as armor penetration and explosion. Even if the night elf walking in the front is much stronger than himself, he will suffer a great loss.
When the arrow sank into the black gas that was prominent around Illidan, Gong Ke waited confidently for the effect attached to the arrow to appear, and the black gas exploded.
However, three seconds later, Gong Ke's confident look disappeared without a trace. The arrow had already hit the target, so why was there still no movement in the black gas? And the black gas seemed to be unaware of his attack and was still moving slowly forward. How could this be possible?
Just as Gong Ke and the others on the palace wall were puzzled, the black gas that was still slowly approaching the palace wall suddenly began to churn and expand violently, as if it had exploded.
Gong Ke's brows relaxed slightly. That's right, it seems that the magic effect attached to the arrow has finally been triggered, but it was delayed for such a long time. I must scold that old alchemist in the future.
Gong Ke, who had relaxed, did not notice for a moment that the black gas that seemed to have expanded due to the explosion seemed to have expanded a little too far. Moreover, the expanding black gas quickly spread out, even extending to cover the palace wall and spreading into the palace.
"This?" The people on the palace wall were all surprised. The black gas passed through their bodies, and they only felt their bodies suddenly cool, and then they were in the range of the black gas.
Fortunately, after spreading out, the black gas did not look as dense as before, and the impact on vision was not great. However, Gong Ke and the other three legendary powerhouses on the palace wall changed their faces and felt that it was not good.
There are four epic powerhouses and ten legendary powerhouses in the entire palace. The epic powerhouses are guarding the core area of the palace and will only take action at critical moments. Therefore, the task of guarding the palace wall to maintain the first line of defense was given to ten legendary powerhouses.
Because the direction of the night elves is from the west, there are four legendary powerhouses including Gong Ke in this direction. Two legendary powerhouses are distributed on each of the other three palace walls to defend against the night elves from other directions.
Anyway, once you reach the legendary level, the speed is very fast. Although the palace of the Holy Lion Empire is very large, if one direction is in a tight spot, it only takes a few breaths for the legendary masters from other directions to come to support.
Originally, Gong Ke thought that with four legendary masters including himself, he was enough to lead the elite palace guards to fight against the invading night elves with the advantage of defense. But after the black gas from Illidan spread, he felt a sense of danger in his heart.
As a legendary master, he naturally believed in his intuition. So Gong Ke made a quick decision and raised his bow to shoot a special arrow into the sky. As soon as the arrow was shot, it made a huge whistling sound. Some of the weaker palace guards around Gong Ke even covered their ears in pain.
The arrow flew rapidly into the air, but was blocked and corroded by the demon field formed by the spread of Illidan's black gas. It could not fly high and was directly annihilated.
Gong Ke was even more alert. This special arrow should have flown high into the sky and exploded, sending an emergency message in other directions. But now it was blocked by the black gas and could not fully exert its effect. This shows that the seemingly harmless black gas is not as safe as it seems.
However, the whistling sound was finally emitted, and it is believed that other legendary powerhouses will soon come to support. Thinking of this, Gong Ke felt relieved and cast his eyes on the source of the black gas range - Illidan.
This sight made Gong Ke and others startled at the same time. Although the original Illidan looked weird and his eyes were covered, he was not very similar to other night elves, but at least he still had the appearance of an elf.
Now that the demon domain has spread, a creature with a black body and two huge black wings has appeared in the place where Illidan was originally. Whether it is the expansion of the body or the change of the face, it can no longer be seen as the original elf.
Gong Ke and the others naturally didn't know the power of Illidan's ultimate skill, Metamorphosis, so they were only slightly surprised before launching a counterattack. However, they soon realized the horror of Metamorphosis.
Originally, Illidan's ordinary attacks and skills could only be considered close combat. He only had a reflection skill, which could form an illusion behind the enemy far away to attack, but this illusion attack naturally couldn't easily eliminate the real body reflected by it, so it could only be used for harassment attacks when dealing with a large number of enemies.
In addition, the Mana Burn skill can also be considered a long-range attack, but it is only a single-target skill and will only cause greater damage when facing a magician. In addition, he does not have a flash-like offensive skill like Maiev, so Illidan is relatively weak in long-range attack.
However, after using the Demon Transformation, the ultimate skill exclusive to the Demon Hunter, Illidan has not only changed in appearance. The most important thing is that his attack type has become chaos damage that ignores armor, and he has also changed from a melee hero to a long-range hero. Of course, there is also the demon domain that comes with the transformation.
The arrows shot by Gong Ke before were not fully effective because they could not penetrate the demon domain that separated the inside and the outside.
After transforming into a demon form, Illidan almost started to attack the humans on the palace wall without stopping. Demon Transformation does not affect the release of other skills, so Illidan first released the Reflection skill.
On the palace wall, whether it is the four powerful legendary powerhouses or the ordinary palace guards, an illusion exactly the same as them suddenly appeared behind them. After launching a quick and full-strength attack, these illusions disappeared as abruptly as they appeared.
However, just one attack has caused considerable casualties to the people on the palace wall. The four legendary masters were lucky. They sensed the danger and took defensive measures the moment the illusion appeared. Although the illusion formed by this reflection skill is based on the target image, it cannot cause much damage to the defensive body because it cannot use fighting spirit and other means.
For example, the palace guards who are weaker and mostly at the silver and gold levels only have some unlucky guys who have suffered fatal injuries, and most of them have only suffered minor injuries.
However, although they did not suffer too much damage, Illidan's weird attack method made humans feel uneasy. With the casting of the reflection skill, Illidan's demon domain began to show its power.
The black air that was originally just floating in the air, suddenly seemed to have received some orders and gradually condensed. Most of the black gas or demonic aura in the demonic realm quickly turned into weapons such as spears and giant swords, whistling through the air. Only the demonic aura at the edge of the realm was integrated into the boundary of the realm, making it more solid.
The demonic aura condensed into various weapons was not idle. One by one, they found their targets and began to fly and attack. Yu Fei, who was watching the battle from afar, couldn't help but think of the immortal cultivators in the novels he saw on Earth.
Facing this unprecedented attack, both the strong men such as Gong Ke and the ordinary palace guards on the palace wall were a little panicked, but when the attack was imminent, the strong men such as Gong Ke were a little relieved.
Although the attack power of these weapons condensed by demonic auras was not weak, it was still insufficient to use them directly against legendary strong men.
