Chapter 40: The Enemy of Hosts I
In the endless world of the multiverse, there is such a myth.
Legend has it that in the past, which was even longer than the ancient times, there was no difference between heaven and earth, there was no life or death, there was no light, there was no darkness, cold and heat were intertwined, order and chaos were blended, and even between existence and nothingness, there was no clear line.
However, there is fire born out of nothing, illuminating the void, distinguishing all things from concepts, so that life and death, light and darkness are separated for the first time, and there is the first life in the world, bathed in the bright fire, and naturally there is the first deceased, sinking into the dark river.
If the sun hanging above the heavens is the source of life, then the river Styx, which runs through the bottomless abyss, is the symbol of death, this dark and waveless river symbolizes disappearance and separation, the boundary between life and death, and to drink its water is to abandon the world with color and choose to fall into eternal sleep.
Of course, this is just an exaggeration, if an ordinary person touches the River Styx, of course, they will die in an instant, but if they are professionals, they can resist the most extreme negative energy river a little. In fact, both the undead and the demons can withstand the power of the River Styx for a short period of time and use this river that runs through all the abysses to travel to other abysses, and it is precisely because of the existence of the River Styx that the abyss is a whole, not countless loose wreckage of the world.
The rivers of the mortal world have their origins, and in mythology, the River Styx also has its origin and end, legend has it that its origin is the first world in the world to die naturally, and at its end is pregnant with a god named 'Death', when he was born, it was the time of the extinction of the multiverse, countless people or demons have been attracted by this myth, trying to find its origin along the flow of the River Styx, they have explored countless levels, and numbered each world, the layers of the abyss are based on this, but for thousands of years, no one has succeeded.
The Sixth Abyss, the Molten Sea of Hell, the Endless River Styx.
The River Styx, the sixth abyss, is located in its center, a vast plain of black volcanic rock. On the map of the Demon Lords, it is like a straight line, slicing the black plains in two from top to bottom, such a regular shape can be called a spectacle, but now is not the time when it shines at its brightest - when the Lord of the Abyss who has expeditioned against it returns with thousands of armies and uses endless souls as fuel to turn the plains into a boiling molten sea, it is the time when the Styx, which sits in the middle of the infinite lava but does not change a bit, is at its most magnificent.
At this time, at the right end of the River Styx, a large army was gathering.
The blade reflected a dim blood light, cutting through the darkness of the Sixth Abyss, and on the flat sand of the river plains, scattered and heavy footsteps carried a wind full of sulfur and blood, sending dust flying. The River Styx flows silently, and tens of thousands of armies of demons and monsters converge from all directions, these demons are different from their scattered counterparts in the fringe areas, even the little demons who are cannon fodder have leather armor made from the waste of the same carapace, and on the Berserk Demon, the sturdy armor made of black iron absorbs all the light, and they form a uniform army under a black banner under the command of the Winged Demon Officer.
Demons have no loyalty, demons have no organization, demons only know killing and destruction, they are the most unlikely creatures in the world to cooperate, and they are also the species that can never form an army, this kind of life that devours each other as a means of growth will be self-extinguishing from the source, some scholars have proposed that with the speed of demons killing and destroying each other, it only takes six hundred years for the entire abyss of life to be completely extinct, becoming a super-rare species with only one or two in the world, and they are the embodiment of chaos even if they are purified into ashes by the holy light, Nor can it be possible to gather under the same flag.
The scholar was right that demons were indeed such creatures, but his doctrine lacked a premise.
That is, there is no demon lord or abyss lord to lead them.
The black banner hunted in the fishy wind, and the banner of the [Golden Thousand Eyes] stood at the forefront of the demon army, and it had only one meaning for its existence, that is, it represented the authority of the Sixth Abyss Molten Sea Hell, one of the four demon lords, [Helm of the Thousand Eyes].
The Little Demon Sapper Team, the Berserk Demon Heavy Armor Soldiers, the Eye Demon Array, a terrifying army that can only be trained under the power of the Demon Lord is gathering, the long plains on the right side of the Styx River have been covered in black, with the heavy breath of the demons, the already dull and rotten air seems to be drained, and the low pressure rolls the surrounding air, spreading the solemn breath into the distance
Looking down from the top of the fortress of the Castlevania Fortress [Black Blood City], which is closest to the River Styx, you can see tens of thousands of demon legions surging like a black ocean, and at the same time, many 'rivers' are coming from afar to merge into it and continue to grow it. The acting commander, the Great Demon, the leader of the insect demons, Gwagunda, looked down on all this, and it couldn't help but be in a trance.
How long has it been.
How long has it been since the demons of the Sixth Abyss have been gathered so seriously, not for invasion, but for defense?
Three hundred, four hundred or five hundred? Since the birth of an Abyss Lord and four Demon Kings in the Sixth Abyss, the Molten Inferno has not encountered any provocations, and even the Otherworldly Monarchs from other worlds have been cautious when they come to this realm, lest they attract their attention, knowing that the relationship between the Dominator and the four kings is different from that of other Abyssal kings, although they are not harmonious, they are not at each other's internal conflicts, and they are more willing to invade other worlds than kill each other.
When they join forces, any world will tremble, everything will forget to breathe with fear, and plants and trees will wither with fear.
But now, the Sixth Abyss is at its weakest moment in history.
The Juggernaut and the four kings have left the Molten Hell, either to a new world of order to plunder souls and lives, or to another abyssal realm to engage in a bloody battle with an endless stream of other demons. This is not an uncommon situation, after all, for the demons in the abyss, as long as they can deal with the sneak attacks of the surrounding abyss, they don't have to worry about the logistics being attacked, and there are many demon lords left behind, and the rear is not empty.
What's more, no one from the world of order would come to the abyss for no reason and slaughter - killing demons would not do them any good, but it would provoke the kings to hunt down in a rage, and no one but a madman would do that, and a madman would never become a king.
Therefore, the existence of all the demon lords who destroyed the Great Plains of the Black Sea and the Gray Salt Mountains this time is undoubtedly a king from other abysses, and this is a temptation from other abysses, both in terms of his actions and the description of the surviving lords. The Insect Demon Commander Gvagonda thought.
And now, he's coming.
On the right bank of the River Styx, there was a sudden noisy exclamation from the demon army, and the originally uniform team suddenly shook in unison for a moment, and Gwagunda also felt that there was an inexplicable uneasiness echoing in his heart, and the heat brought by anxiety ran back and forth on its long backbone, and the leader of the insect demons knew that it was 'that one' coming.
'That one' is the name of the unknown demon lord, because no one knows the name of that one, although there are demons in private who call each other [Exterminator], because there are no monsters left in the place he has passed, even if he relies on the communication circle to monitor from afar, he will be burned by the powerful power of the other party and cause serious injuries, but this name has not spread, this is the meaning of Gwaganda, it does not want its subordinates to tout the enemy as a demon king-level existence before the battle begins.
With countless inverted bone spurs, the mouthparts opened, inhaling a large amount of air, and the leader of the insect demon calmed his restless heart, it turned its four pairs of compound eyes to stare at the Styx plain in front of it, the demon could see that the wind caused by the army's actions was subsided, but not far away, another hurricane was speeding towards this direction with a long column of smoke and dust.
A fire demon, a black dragon...... and a demonic lord.
Here they are!
"Hiss ——————"
- Ready!
The shrill chirping of insects resounded across the plain, and at the same time, the powerful spiritual power of the insect demon leader enveloped the entire battlefield, and it began to issue different orders for each legion one by one, and the ultimate purpose of each order was very clear-
For the sake of Lord Helm, who is rushing back from another world, they will use tactics, numbers, and their own flesh and life to kill, or at least drag down the enemies in front of them, as much as possible!
He must not be allowed to cross this line of defense, and he must not be allowed to destroy the [Black Blood City] fortress! He must not be allowed to threaten the abode of the Lord in the middle of the Molten Sea Hellfire, the [Valley of Tears]! With this in mind, the insect demon Gwagangda, who was standing at the top of the fortress, issued a second order.
"Nazi ————"
- Begin!
The insect demon gave an order, and the black thousand-eyed banner suddenly exuded a powerful coercion, which was the breath that Lord Helm left on the banner, and following the command of this breath, this elite army was extremely elite, and a small team was enough to slay the dragon The terrifying army began to act, and the little demon forwards roared with a sharp voice and raised the knives and guns in their hands, although they were afraid of the coercion from the other side, but they were even more afraid of the breath on the banner behind them, and they came to the position where the black dragon on the other side of the Styx must pass, Then you are ready for the shock.
Behind them, an army of berserkers, no less tall than half-blooded giants, dressed in heavy and sturdy armor, became the second line of flesh and blood defense, and the black armor was joined together, looking down from the sky, it looked like a great wall of steel.
Thousands of Eye Demons and another group of Berserkers are behind these two walls, preparing spells and drawing bows, the bow drawn by the Berserker Demon with inhuman power has a destructive power beyond human imagination, and the arrows forged with the black iron of the Abyss can pierce through the rock wall several meters behind, if it hits head-on, even the Golden Extreme Intent will be injured by the high-level Great Demon.
They are the most elite troops under a demon army, they have destroyed dozens of worlds, and they have survived bloody battles, a demon lord, they are not undealt with, even if they can't be defeated, they can stop each other.
All of them are now ready to attack, just waiting for the arrival of the enemy.
But at this moment, in the distance, when all the demons were still preparing to deal with the impact, the huge black dragon took a deep breath, it puffed up its chest, and the golden core crystal on its chest shone with a burning light that even the demons could not look at directly.
Squeak——————
The next moment, a sharp hum rang out, and a star-like light pierced the atmosphere, shattering the silence!
Rumble!!!
The huge flash of light hit the small demon array on the other side of the Styx, accompanied by a deafening explosion and a hissing sound of dissolving the earth at high temperatures, the scattered corpses of dozens of little devils were instantly abandoned by the shock wave, and the flesh and blood in the sky were vaporized by high heat before they fell, turning into blood vapor and spreading rapidly towards the periphery.
- It's Dragon's Breath!
Seeing this, Gwagunda, who commanded the army, immediately knew that the black dragon in the distance was probably some kind of abyss abyss, obviously a black dragon that controlled negative energy, but it was able to emit such a scorching long-range dragon breath, when this was not in the way, under its command, the blood of the little devil who fell tragically was absorbed by the ritual held by the rear eye demon, and when the next dragon breath sprayed, a blood-colored spell giant shield that suddenly appeared completely blocked it, and this scene immediately attracted the cheers of all the forward demons.
The attack was frustrated, the black dragon and the fire demon did not give up, they still kept launching their own attacks, Gwagunda could see that the fire demon with pure energy and a little bit like an abyssal creature began to overflow countless golden-red fireballs from his body, these fiery white fireballs the size of a human head slowly rose, and then swept towards the demon army at different angles with the speed of arrows. At the same time, you can also see that the core of the black dragon's chest is rapidly glowing and brightening, if the previous brightness is just an ordinary sun, and it feels dazzling, then the brightness is now almost equivalent to a supernova, and it is completely impossible to look directly, even if you close your eyes, there will be light through the eyelids and eyelids, making the eyeballs feel a burst of dry and stinging pain.
And after an instant, a flame streamer that was incomparably pure and did not contain any impurities was mixed with fireballs that filled the sky with fire demons, and smashed down towards the location of the demon army like raindrops!
Boom Boom Boom !!!!
Continuous thunder resounded in mid-air, gray-white shock waves formed countless rings, the insect demon nervously watched the every move of the enemy in front of him, its four compound eyes gave it extremely powerful perception, and also made its dynamic vision beyond human imagination, Gwagangda hurriedly used the spirit to communicate with each demon in the demon army, and suddenly, a blood-red energy giant shield suddenly appeared in the position of the demon army, under the control of the insect demon leader, This huge shield easily blocked all the attacks of the Black Dragon and the Fire Demon, and the price was only the lives of a few hundred little demons.
In the distance, seeing that the attacks missed one after another, both the Black Dragon and the Fire Demon seemed to have lost the desire to continue attacking, and the two simply gave up the attack, instead running towards the edge of the River Styx, and because of the harassment of the previous attack, no demon could stop their approach.
Then, the Black Dragon and the Fire Demon stopped on the banks of the River Styx.
The River Styx of the Molten Sea Hell is not wide, on the contrary, compared to the real river, it is actually very narrow, at most nearly a thousand meters wide, but this distance of nearly a thousand meters is insurmountable, whether it is the black dragon or the fire demon, they know that without disrupting the opponent's formation, there is no way for them to forcibly cross the River Styx under the long-range attack of tens of thousands of demon armies, if it has to be strong, then it will already encounter the most severe blow from the demons.
- It seems that it is right to gather a large army here. When the leader of the insect demons saw this scene, his heart immediately settled down slightly, the power of the River Styx exceeded everyone's imagination, even the king could not fly over it, he could only cross the river honestly, and even if he was a king, it was impossible to safely cross the river under the full fire attack of an entire demon army.
Thinking of this, the worm demon's heart settled down a little, everything was under its control, it was seamless, His Majesty Helm would be back soon, and this little time in the middle was enough for it to drag on.
Gwagunda had never thought that the Maharaja would be defeated, and he was so convinced that it was only when another Winged Demon officer beside him reminded him that the Worm Demon noticed that the situation on the other side of the river had changed.
It saw.
The king, stepping down from the head of the black dragon, the terrifying king wearing the armor of the dragon's head, came to the river Styx, bent down and picked up some of the water of the river Styx. Then, he stretched out his hand directly to the fire demon beside him, and in the screams of the other party, he forcibly turned it into a great sword burning with pure flames.
Joshua raised his head and looked at the other side of the river bank in front of him, the dense demon army, and the city behind them.
He weighed the weight of the sword in his hand.
- Enough. The warrior thought so, and then smiled. Search for "CM" or enter the URL:.
