The Magic Empire for 20,000 years

Chapter 223 Kill the demon!

"enough!"

"Master, let's retreat."

Elion transformed into a streak of light, descending from the sky and landing beside Balor Ratu, retrieving the remaining five iron golems.

—In the chaos of battle just now, half of the steel golems were smashed to pieces, and the remaining five were also severely damaged.

The bone dragon, which was originally engaged in a fierce battle with the wolf-serpent demon, suddenly unleashed a large storm of psionic energy, repelling the wolf-serpent demon. Then, it flapped its wings and retreated towards the direction where Elion and Latour were.

"Want to run?"

The wolf-serpent demon "Sleepless" had no intention of giving these offenders a chance to escape and pounced straight at them.

All sorts of hideous and terrifying demons and undead attacked from all directions.

They either pounced on Elian and the Balrog Ratu, or unleashed their supernatural abilities, shooting out magic in different colors such as dark red, pitch black, pale white, and dark green.

"go!"

In a flash of light, space twisted violently.

Elian, Latu, and the Bone Dragon were all engulfed by the intense light and disappeared.

A dense barrage of magical attacks slammed into the open ground, kicking up clouds of dust.

"They teleported away and escaped?"

"Strange, didn't you seal off the space just now?"

The wolf-snake demon looked surprised, but then immediately understood what was going on:

"No, it's these night raiders who quietly lifted the spatial blockade!"

"You had time to do something like this during the fierce battle just now?"

"Are there other accomplices I haven't noticed? Or are they actually stronger than they appear to be?"

In the brief few minutes of the battle, in order to make Balor Ratu the biggest spotlight, Elion did not make any outstanding performances and only performed some auxiliary tasks.

He seemed to be a novice legendary mage with a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

This gave Elion enough energy to secretly break through the dozen or so spatial barriers set up by numerous enemies.

"Damn it!"

"They actually let them escape!"

"Where did that hateful Balor Balrog Lesser Lord Ratul find so many powerful helpers?"

The wolf-snake demon bared its teeth in anger, its wolf-like head and snake-like head both revealing resentment and fury.

Just as the Wolf-Snake Demon Sleepless rushed into the smoke of the explosion ahead, trying to find clues about the raiding party, his four eyes suddenly widened.

In the smoke in front of me, a golden sphere of light could be vaguely seen, like a miniature sun.

"Did Latour and the others leave anything behind?"

"not good!"

The next instant, this condensed miniature sun exploded in front of the wolf-serpent demon.

The closest wolf-serpent demon, "The Sleepless," was the first to be engulfed by the brilliant golden light.

The dazzling light expanded rapidly, engulfing countless undead and demons in the surrounding area.

boom!
A golden sun rose slowly in the darkness of night. Above Silvermoon City, the pitch-black night was transformed into daylight.

The other demon legions besieging the city, belonging to different demon lords, all looked toward the rising golden sun.

At that moment, each of the Balor Flame Demons, Wolf Serpent Demons, Giant Bull Demons, and Six-Armed Serpent Demon Generals simultaneously realized one fact:
The Abyss Legion of Orcus, the Undying Lord, is in trouble!

……

On a patch of scorched earth, steaming hot.

"I see……"

"The battle just now was actually a deliberate delay, waiting for more high-level demons and undead to arrive as reinforcements..."

"Then……"

At this moment, the wolf-serpent demon "Sleepless" was covered in foul-smelling blood, its entire belly had been blown open, and rings of bright red intestines were dragging on the ground.

Of his two heads, the snake's head on the left had been reduced to charcoal, leaving only the wolf's head on the right.

The legendary demon looked around with its remaining wolf head.

As expected, all the demons and undead that came to their aid from nearby areas have been annihilated.

Even some special undead known for their strong defenses and unpredictable nature were not spared.

—The light of the sun purifies evil and sweeps away the undead, making it the most effective counter to the abyssal legions of Okus!
Half of the high-end combat force in this army of demons and undead was wiped out.

Since setting foot on this planet, Orcus's material plane expeditionary force has suffered unprecedented heavy losses!
The wolf-serpent demon lowered its head in secret relief and saw the amulet with the purple gem embedded in its chest shattering piece by piece:
"Fortunately, I had the talisman personally given to me by the [Immortal Lord], which allowed me to survive the explosion just now..."

This magical amulet has multiple functions, the most crucial of which is that when the Wolf Serpent Demon Sleepless is in mortal danger, it can shatter itself to shield him from an attack.

Without this item, given that he was already injured after fighting the bone dragon, the wolf-serpent demon suspected that he would have died on the spot from being bombarded by the sun, which was effective against demons, at almost face-to-face range.

—The wolf-serpent demon is not a demon skilled in defense!

"No matter what, at least I survived."

The wolf-serpent demon, looking at the intestines that had fallen from its belly and dragged on the ground, took a breath and said:

"With my exaggerated self-healing ability, I can be completely healed in a few minutes."

"We must regroup the army and report what just happened to [Undying Lord] Okus, praying for his dark blessing and demonic gifts..."

The wolf-serpent demon "Sleepless" knew that as long as he was alive, this demon legion still had a leader, and it was not over yet!
The next second, the Sleepless Man's expression froze on the last remaining wolf head.

Because a crystal sword pierced his heart from behind.

"I knew it. The demon general favored by the Immortal Lord Okus wouldn't be so easy to kill."

Erian, transformed into a seraph and wielding a crystal longsword, stabbed the wolf-serpent demon several more times before it could turn around in astonishment.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh.

The crystal longsword, which had been imbued with multiple enhancement spells by Elion beforehand, pierced the body of the wolf-serpent demon "Sleepless" time and time again.

The foul-smelling, filthy blood of demons was spilled onto the steaming, scorched earth.

In the 31st year of the Empire, the general of Okus, the second-ranked demon lord in the Abyss, the Wolf-Serpent Demon "Sleepless," was killed during an expedition to the Material Plane.

This signifies that the strongest and most threatening legion among the Abyss Legions besieging Silvermoon City has lost its commander.
