Chapter 565: Frenzy of Struggle
At the moment the battle began, Flo took the lead and launched an attack. As a high-level wandering swordsman, her thin rapier made her extremely swift. She could easily draw, point, poke, and stab. Her steps were even more sharp, making it difficult to predict where her next move would be and where her next sword would be stabbed.
But Ledros could always hold on to her rhythm. His eyes had been blinded long ago and could not be restored by any means. Therefore, in the long battle, he trained himself to have a strong blind fighting skill that could capture the details of the enemy's position without using his eyes.
This made Flo's steps, no matter how fancy they were, unable to withstand Ledros's accurate prediction of her landing point and his quick and decisive slash! And Flo had no way! The attack range of the long-handled knife is larger than her rapier, and Ledros's attack is so swift and decisive that Flo can't shake him with her steps, so she can only be forced into a mess for a while. Even if she flaps her wings and flies into the air, Ledros can use magic to knock her down.
Not far from the battle between the two, Haruman also drove the nightmare under him, holding up a giant lance! The warhorse carried a huge force and rushed towards the tall hell demon at a high speed! But halfway through their charge, Gargos waved his hand, and giant fireballs emerged from his hand one after another.
At this time, Gargos was like a catapult that never stopped, throwing powerful fireballs one after another at a very high frequency, blowing Haruman into a mess.
In this environment, the nightmare under Haruman's crotch could not perform space jumps, which made Haruman use the flame shield to protect himself and his mount, and constantly try to approach to achieve the conditions for a boarding battle. Only in this way can he have the possibility of winning.
But whether it was Gargos or Haruman, Ledros or Flo, the devils present knew very well that the outcome of the battle between them was actually irrelevant. Only the victory or defeat of the battlefield between Noshir and Zariel could truly determine their survival.
And at this time! On the battlefield that was really critical! Noshir did not hesitate at all, and launched a tentative attack first!
His thoughts instantly connected with the many beast spirits around him, and then sent three ordinary beast souls without their own will to Zariel for testing! He himself instantly burst out at a super high speed and flew to Zariel's left side, ready to launch a more deadly attack at any time!
Facing Noshir's tentative attack, Zariel swung the [Destruction Cry] in his left hand fiercely, and the giant flail instantly drew a heavy arc, and blasted the giant tusk boar that rushed straight at him! It also severely damaged the spirit of another giant rhino, and it soon met with destruction.
The two destroyed spirits dissipated into the most basic light points, and then silently returned to Noshir's body, while the only remaining giant python spirit bypassed the heavy blow of the flail at a thrilling angle, opened its big mouth, and bit directly at Zariel!
Facing the attack of this spirit, Zariel didn't even look at it. She just frowned in annoyance, and then instantly raised [Matalotok] and swung it fiercely in front of her!
As the hammer swung, endless frost began to emerge from the hammer, setting off an extremely cold, pale storm! Not only did it freeze the giant python spirit instantly, but even the other dozen spirits in that area were not spared and were all frozen by this move!
‘This power. ’
Noshir’s eyes became more and more solemn. He sent the beast soul to tentatively attack Zariel, just to find out what the consequences would be if he was directly hit by the artifact hammer, and the results obtained so far are very bad.
You must know that with Noshir’s current ability, each beast soul around him now has a combat ability equivalent to at least 16 to 18 level professionals, but even with such strength, it can still be easily wiped out like dust in front of the hammer.
Although he probably guessed that a single beast soul spirit is unlikely to play any role in this level of battle, being able to test her moves is considered a success, but just swinging it once, without even a direct hit, can so easily wipe out a large area of beast spirits...
‘It’s better not to be hit by that thing. ’
As soon as this thought flashed through Noshier’s mind, Zariel suddenly turned his head and aimed his gaze at him. In an instant, the flames in Zariel’s eye sockets burst into flames! The flames even reached the spiritual crown on her head!
But Noshier didn’t have time to pay attention to these small details, because at the moment when Zariel’s eye sockets suddenly burst into flames, a ball of fire suddenly burst out on his head! Then, his body seemed to spontaneously ignite in an instant, and more flames also enveloped and burned all over his body in an instant!
[Incineration Gaze]! One of Zariel’s signature skills is to lock the target through vision, and then blast a large amount of hellfire on the target’s body in an instant! As long as the enemy is slightly weaker than Zariel, and does not seize the moment to dodge this move, and does not have the ability to resist the flames, then this move alone can instantly burn it into ashes!
‘It’s over——’
Such a thought flashed through Zariel's mind. Being hit directly by [Incineration Gaze], and hit twice, even a hell lord of the same level as her would be severely injured instantly without the ability to resist. In the bloody battle in the abyss not long ago, she used this trick to severely injure the king of the gnolls, Yeenoghu, and drove him back to the bottomless abyss.
Although Noshir had seized the divinity that should have belonged to Asmodeus from the hands of the traitor Gargos, how could a newly promoted demigod life form have the ability to resist such a trick and her?
This is the source of Zariel's confidence. With a divine weapon in hand, fighting at home, and the blessing of the power of hell, even a trick of the level of [Incineration Gaze] can be released continuously. She can't imagine the possibility of losing!
However, it was this kind of arrogance, and because of this kind of laxity that thought she had won just because of a temporary advantage, that made Zariel not have time to fully react to everything that happened later.
‘It’s over—what? ! ’
The violent flames had just started, and before Zariel could even think of a single sentence, Noshir’s wide wings directly dispersed the blazing flames! Clearly, two [Incineration Gazes] had hit Noshir’s head and chest respectively, but at this moment, there was not even a trace of blackening on his body! Her attack had not worked at all!
At this moment, Zariel could only watch as Noshir rushed in front of her at a speed that seemed like teleportation, and the giant battle axe, carrying an infinite pressure, directly hit—an extremely thick ice wall from top to bottom.
The slaughter battle axe only took a moment to split the ice wall in half from top to bottom, but it was only that moment of obstruction, and Zariel successfully used her authority as the Grand Duke of Hell to teleport herself out of that area.
Not far away, in another high altitude, Zariel wanted to stretch out her fingers to touch her eye sockets, but as soon as she raised her hand, blood as hot as lava instantly dripped onto the armor of her fingers, and above her cheek and eye sockets, a bone-penetrating wound was clearly visible.
