From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 420 The Tragedy of a Demigod
The powerful pressure emanating from the skeletal dragon was enough to suppress any unit within a radius of 500 meters that lacked mental strength.

Aside from elves of captain rank or higher, any other elven warrior who steps within 500 meters will immediately suffer a mental breakdown and collapse to the ground, on the verge of death.

Although Lu Heng could withstand the mental pressure emanating from the skeletal dragon, he would see a notification every ten seconds or so that his mental strength had decreased by 1.

Therefore, Lu Heng dared not stay within 500 meters of the Skeleton Dragon for long, and tried to stay within 500 meters as much as possible to avoid losing his mind due to mental pollution.

Lu Heng moved with lightning speed, dodging the attacks of the skeletal dragon as he darted and weaved across the ground.

As Tyrese passed by, Tyrese quickly said:
"We'll coordinate our attack. I'll cover you, and you'll be responsible for the final blow."

After speaking, Tyrese stepped back to avoid the demonic flames, then turned and shot towards the skeletal dragon like an arrow, unleashing the Wind Dragon's Breath Slash.

Roar!
A colossal wind dragon took shape, impacting the skeletal dragon with immense wind pressure.

Roar!
The skeletal dragon spewed out demonic flames and clashed with the wind dragon, creating shockwaves of demonic flames like tsunamis, turning an area within a kilometer radius into a living hell.

The first sword strike, Wind Dragon's Breathless Slash, failed to break through the Skeleton Dragon's defenses.

Lu Heng raised his hand and released his clones, who rushed towards the Bone Dragon from both sides. Before Tyrese's Wind Dragon's Breath Slash ran out of power, he and his clones unleashed the Wind Dragon's Breath Slash together.

Two wind dragons took shape and charged at the skeletal dragon from the left and right sides.

The skeletal dragon swung its tail, piercing through the wind dragon on the left, and raised its bone wings to block the wind dragon on the right.

The Wind Dragon's Breathless Slash, which incorporated the Rift Sword Light, cut sword marks into the Skeleton Dragon's bone wings and tail, but still could not pose a fatal threat to it.

Although the skeletal dragon was not injured, it created an opportunity for Tyrese.

Tyrese charged forward, unleashing a surge of divine energy from the Dragon Fang, and unleashed the Wind Dragon's Breath Slash, enhanced by divine energy.

Roar!
An even larger wind dragon soared into the sky, breaking through the outer protective shield of the skeletal dragon, with thousands of tornado blades slicing through the dragon's bones.

The opportunity presented itself, and Tyrese instantly unleashed his second sword technique, Soaring Dragon Sky Hunter, thrusting his sword horizontally towards the skeletal dragon's eye socket.

Roar!
The skeletal dragon roared with earth-shattering force, and demonic flames erupted from its eye sockets, forming a death ray that shot towards Tyrese.

In that perilous moment, Tyrese immediately changed tactics, switching to a spatial combo, cleaving through space with a single sword strike, piercing into the void, dodging the death ray, and then reappearing, his dragon fang continuing to pierce the dark crystal skull in the dragon's eye socket.

Clang!
The dragon's fang pierced the skeletal dragon's left eye socket, but the moment the sword tip entered, Tyrese sensed something was wrong.

Because the sword tip didn't touch anything, the sword pierced the dragon's eye socket, but missed.

The skeletal dragon's eye sockets were enormous, three meters in diameter. Tyrese charged right into one of them and was engulfed and burned by the demonic flames within.

He swung his sword, unleashing sword energy to repel the demonic flames. Turning his head to look around, he was surprised to find that the Black Crystal Skull had appeared in the other eye socket of the Skeleton Dragon.

Tyrese already knew what had happened. Just as the sword tip was about to pierce the Dark Crystal Skull, the Dark Crystal Skull disappeared from its original position, leaving only a spatial fluctuation.

It is clear that the Wujing skull underwent spatial movement.

After Tyrese discovered that the Dark Crystal Skull had teleported to the other eye socket, he took advantage of the fact that his spatial slashing sword technique had not yet been used up, and once again swung his sword to cleave through space. Before being engulfed by the demonic flames, he traversed the void, chased after the Dark Crystal Skull to the other eye socket, and then slashed at it again.

Clang!
The sword light slashed down, swift as thunder.

However, the sword missed its mark once again, and the black crystal skull disappeared again.

Tyrese immediately looked to the left of the dragon's head and was shocked to find that the Black Crystal Skull had reappeared in the left eye socket.

Seeing this, Tyrese did not hesitate at all, unleashing another spatial slash that tore through the void and chased after the target to his left eye socket.

However, just as he teleported to his left eye socket, the black crystal skull disappeared again, instantly returning to his right eye socket.

Tyrese pursued relentlessly, unleashing another series of spatial slashes.

Bang!Bang!bang...

In a few breaths, Tyrese unleashed seven sword strikes in succession, shattering the void and pursuing the Dark Crystal Skull seven times.

However, even after exhausting the Space Slash Sword Technique, it still failed to touch the Black Crystal Skull.

The dark crystal skull kept teleporting back and forth between the left and right eye sockets of the skeletal dragon, repeating endlessly.

The Seven-Slash Spatial Combo can be used up in an instant.

Lu Heng saw Tyrese's seven consecutive slashes from the outside, and also noticed the Black Crystal Skull teleporting back and forth in the Demon Dragon's eye socket.

A possibility immediately came to mind.

Under normal circumstances, even a demigod could not continuously move through space.

This is a spatial ability. It's not surprising that a demigod-level being would possess spatial abilities, but it's impossible for them to use them continuously without limit.

The black crystal skull kept teleporting back and forth between the two balls of demonic flames in the dragon's eye sockets. There is only one possibility: a spatial connection has been established between the left and right eye sockets.

The Black Crystal Skull is connected by space, allowing it to teleport back and forth between these two points without restriction.

That is why the Black Crystal Skull did not teleport to another location.

If that's the case, the solution is simple: attack both points simultaneously, and one of them will eventually succeed.

"Let's attack together!"

Lu Heng shouted and instantly broke the sound barrier, shooting towards his left eye socket to join forces with Tyrese in his right eye socket.

Just as the sword light simultaneously slashed out from both eye sockets of the skeletal dragon, the Black Crystal Skull teleported to the left eye socket where Lu Heng was attacking.

Immediately afterwards, a death ray shot out from the black crystal skull.

Lu Heng immediately activated [Time Freeze], and the surrounding time and space slowed down a hundredfold. Lu Heng turned around in mid-air, dodging the death ray, and swung his sword at the Black Crystal Skull.

hum!
Just at this moment.

A wave of demigod-like pressure emanated, expanding in all 360 degrees without any blind spots. Lu Heng had nowhere to hide. His body twisted and swelled under the mental impact, finally exploding into a ring of energy and dissipating into nothingness.

This Lu Heng was actually a clone.

Meanwhile, Lu Heng activated [Shadow Travel] and rushed in from the other side at extreme speed, unleashing a series of spatial slashes that broke through the skeletal dragon's claw strikes and aimed at the Black Crystal Skull.

Just as the tip of the Aurora Blade was three centimeters away from the Black Crystal Skull, a wave of divine spiritual energy rippled outwards.

hum!
It felt as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in Lu Heng's head, creating a huge upheaval in his mind.

"My servants! Obey my commands!"

An irresistible phrase emerged from the depths of my mind.

Lu Heng felt a class-specific energy surging within his body, and the power of the [Death Agent] class surged infinitely in that instant.

In that instant, Lu Heng lost control of his body, and his mind was also severely impacted.

As expected, the [Death Agent] class contains the power infused by the Skeleton Lord, which will turn the class holder into his minions.

Lu Heng tried to resist this power, but the demigod-level mental power instantly took control of his body and continued to erode his mind.

The will of a demigod is something that mortals simply cannot resist.

Lu Heng struggled for only three seconds before losing control of his body. His eyes glowed red as he became a henchman of the Skeleton Monarch. He held his longsword horizontally in front of the Black Crystal Skull, becoming its protector.

In the other eye socket, Tyrese's sword strike missed once again. When he turned to look at the other side, he saw that Lu Heng had become a henchman. His gaze darkened, sensing that the situation was dire.

But the battle situation is critical and there is no time to lose. He must kill the Skeleton Monarch as quickly as possible.

If we delay any longer, the city of Kolos will be destroyed.

So he had no chance to hesitate, and charged toward the other side of the demonic dragon's eye socket, wanting to attack the black crystal skull again.

However, this time, his sword was blocked by another sword as soon as he slashed out.

Lu Heng parried with his sword, then drew it back to counterattack.

"Get out of the way!" Tyrese's expression was solemn as he charged forward with his sword, each strike heavier than the last, trying to repel Lu Heng and gain an opportunity to attack the Black Crystal Skull.

Lu Heng refused to yield an inch, fighting with all his might to protect Wu Jing's skull.

The two swords clashed violently, sparks flying everywhere.

The two, who were originally both teacher and friend, now drew their swords against each other.

The mocking voice of the Skeleton Monarch emanated from the Black Crystal Skull: "How can a mortal resist the temptation of the rank I bestowed upon you? Your choice is correct. Once we win this battle, you will be my most capable subordinate, and I will lead you to conquer all the worlds."

"Lu Heng! Wake up!" Tyrese roared as he attacked, hoping to wake Lu Heng, but to no avail.

The two swords moved faster and faster, exchanging hundreds of blows in the blink of an eye.

Lu Heng's face showed a struggle as he opened his mouth and said, "You should leave now. Escort the Queen out of Kolos City. I can't turn back."

A look of helplessness and despair flashed in Tyrese's eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth, turned around, and fled, preparing to escort Orianna to the Lake of the Moon to heal her wounds.

As for the city of Kolos... perhaps this is the fate of the elves, one that can never be changed.

Hahaha……

Seeing Tyrese flee, the skeletal dragon roared to the sky, and a proud laugh emanated from the dark crystal skull.

Laughter echoed throughout the city of Kolos, like a funeral dirge, casting a shadow of despair over the hearts of the Quel'dorei elves who were still fighting a bloody battle in the city.

Without Tyrese and Lu Heng to stop them, the skeletal dragon charged into the city, recklessly spewing demonic flames and setting everything ablaze.

City walls, buildings, rivers... one after another, buildings collapsed in the flames.

Lu Heng stood guard in front of the Wu Jing skull, like a loyal servant.

The Skeleton Monarch was very satisfied with his newly acquired servant: "You are much stronger than the previous human; you are simply perfect material for a demon general."

"Rest assured, from this moment on, you will be my most powerful skeletal demon general, and you will receive my most powerful blessing."

The red light in Lu Heng's eyes was flashing. He listened to the words of the Skeleton Monarch but did not react at all, just like the other skeleton servants.

However, after flashing a few times, the red light suddenly went out.

Lu Heng turned around and unleashed a sword strike, [Divine Judgment], splitting Wu Jing's skull in two with a clang.

Bang!
Roar!
The Skeleton Monarch roared in a spiritual voice: "Damn mortals!"

“You are not worthy to rule me.” Lu Heng replied, then leaped into the air to chase after one of the two fragments of the black crystal skull.

at the same time.

Tyrese returned to pursue another fragment of the Dark Crystal Skull.

Wu Jing's skull was struck by the [Divine Judgment] and shattered into two pieces. Although he did not die immediately, he was severely injured, and his combat power dropped below that of a demigod.

Tyrese, already the strongest below demigod, pursued the fragments of the Dark Crystal Skull with all his might. After some time, he used the god-slaying power of the Dragon Fang to shatter the Dark Crystal Skull into pieces.

Lu Heng also unleashed all his skills, and under the [Thunder Field], he unleashed the Wind Dragon's Breath Slash, enhanced by the Rift Sword Aura. Ten thousand rift wind blades cut through, stacked with lightning damage, instantly dealing maximum damage and shattering the Black Crystal Skull into dust.

……

at the same time.

In the dungeons of Kolos.

Ke Yiming knelt on the ground, and Xie Shi'en, holding a blood-red sickle, plunged it into his back.

“You…” Ke Yiming’s blood was still gushing onto the blood-red scythe. He saw the [Death Agent] class return to him once again.

This class has changed hands multiple times in this Abyss Battlefield.

He obtained this rank three times, and this time he got it again.

However, he had no idea what was happening outside.

"Why did you return my rank to me?" He looked up, his face full of confusion.

This story begins when Lu Heng's team of four returned to Kolos City. Before the battle, Lu Heng asked Xie Shi'en to take Ke Yiming to the Elf's dungeon and imprison him.

At the time, Xie Shien said that after he locked Ke Yiming in the anti-magic prison, he would come out to join the battle.

Lu Heng did not agree to his suggestion, but instead kept him in the dungeon and gave him a task.

The matter I'm explaining is the one I'm talking about now.

Xie Shi'en gripped the hilt of the blood-red scythe and asked, "You've regained the [Death Agent] class?"

"Yes, aren't you afraid I'll take back my class and kill you?" Ke Yiming raised his head, staring sharply at Xie Shi'en.

Xie Shi'en smiled calmly: "You underestimate me, 025."

Upon hearing this voice, Ke Yiming's pupils constricted sharply, and he exclaimed in surprise, "You...you are 027!"

He narrowed his eyes and said, "So that's how it is. You've been colluding with 028 all along. No wonder Lu Heng has killed so many members of the organization."

Xie Shi'en laughed from outside, "It's a pity you discovered it too late."

Ke Yiming narrowed his eyes and said, "It's not too late now. I just need to kill you, then escape in the chaos and hide until the return time. After I get back, even if you accuse me of defection, I can still stay in the organization with your identity secrets. Besides, I have the Skeleton Monarch as my backer."

Xie Shi'en smiled teasingly again and reminded him, "Why don't you take another look at the mission interface?"

Ke Yiming brought up the task interface with a puzzled look, then his pupils suddenly contracted.

He discovered that the third challenge task had already been completed.

Challenge Mission 3: Ally with the Elves to thwart the Abyss Demon King's plot. (Completed/Not Participated)
