"Coming!"
Allen stood in the middle of the road with his saber across his body. The terrain here was relatively high, and he could clearly see the shadow devils surging like a tide down the slope. Looking around, the ground and the cliffs on both sides were densely packed gray figures. They devoured everything they passed, whether it was the ground or the mountain walls, and were being occupied inch by inch by them.
A troll trotted over from the Gray Shadow Devils on the ground. The troll didn't care if the one in front of him was his own kind. He raised his thigh and kicked three or four Gray Devils away. When he landed, two or three more Gray Devils were trampled on the ground. The troll ran all the way, carrying a mallet full of iron thorns in its hand. This simple weapon would play a great role under the troll's monstrous strength.
Allen pointed at the troll and shouted, "Adele!"
Almost at the same time, the troll's head exploded into a bloody mist. Half of his head was lifted up, and the shockwave caused the bloody mist to fly backwards like a fluttering flag. The troll let out a miserable scream and fell backwards, crushing a group of Gray Devils. However, its vitality was so strong that it actually got up again. At this time, the sniper rifle's gunshot had yet to completely disappear, and Adele's second shot landed on its obvious head. This time, the troll's entire face collapsed, and a line of blood sprayed out from the back of its head!
The wailing stopped abruptly, and the troll swayed from side to side as if he was drunk. He took another two steps and finally fell head-on, crushing more than a dozen Gray Devils to death and injuring them.
At this moment, Allen saw another troll.
A hundred meters below the bend, it was anxiously knocking on the mountain wall beside it with the mallet in its hand, causing stone powder to fly everywhere. However, this troll did not rush up, and Allen saw another figure on its head.
It was a shadow demon, but its skin was neither gray nor black, but scarlet red. When Allen looked at it, it also looked at Allen. In those eyes, Allen saw something else besides anger and hatred.
Intelligence.
It was a life with more intelligence than the Black Shadow Demon. Allen's heart trembled. He held his blade and retreated. Behind him, two soldiers cut down the thick ropes that were blocking the boulder. As soon as the thick rope broke, the boulder immediately rolled down the slope of the mountain. These natural weapons were of great use. The boulder crushed the Gray Shadow Demon, who wasn't known for its strength, if it couldn't dodge in time, it would be smashed to death by the rolling boulder.
After a dozen or so stones rolled down, an empty space appeared on the curved slope.
However, there were just too many Shadow Fiends. This gap was quickly filled up. Moreover, the rolling stones could only kill the Shadow Fiends on the ground. They had no effect on the Shadow Fiends that were advancing from the cliffs on both sides. Allen had already expected this. Last night, the Shadow Fiend's ambush had already shown him that these fellows were as good as geckos. He gestured for the warriors behind him not to return to the cave where they were hiding. Allen carried Gojoseon on his back and pulled out the Devil's Praise.
A cold killing intent suddenly surged up the slope. In that instant, all of the Shadow Fiends froze, as if a vicious beast lying in ambush had opened its eyes! The Origin Tool in Allen's hands transformed into two blades, one red and one black. Allen raised the black blade from the Death Hymn. The black blade suddenly exploded, turning into a black fog that surged outwards. Not only did the decaying fog take over the curve, but it also climbed up the cliffs on both sides, covering the entire entrance to the curve.
Allen held the pass by himself!
The Crimson Shadow Demon at the bottom of the slope revealed a very human-like smile. It was laughing coldly. The smoke that the humans released could indeed serve as cover and blur one's line of sight. However, Shadow Fiends were adept at moving at night. Even if they couldn't see, they could walk through the cliffs as if they were walking on flat ground. Even if they couldn't see, they had other methods of sensing the traces of their prey. The Crimson Shadow Demon was laughing at Allen's methods, but it didn't know that the black fog that Allen had released wasn't as simple as it had imagined.
If the Crimson Shadow Demon was like this, the other Shadow Fiends were even more confused as they charged into the black fog. As soon as they entered the black fog, their lifeforce was rapidly sucked away by the decaying fog. The more black fog they breathed in, the faster they died. Moments later, the dried corpses fell from the cliffs. Even if they could pass through the black fog, they would often fall after climbing a few steps.
The Shadow Fiends immediately cried out in fear.
The Crimson Shadow Demon at the bottom of the slope couldn't see what was happening in the black fog, but the cries of its own kind let it know that the strange black fog was devouring the lives of its own kind. The Crimson Shadow Demon finally grew anxious. It urged the giant demon beneath it to advance.
At this moment, the decaying fog was also retracting. By the time the Devil's Praise returned to the scabbard at Allen's waist, there were already hundreds of Shadow Fiend corpses lying on the slope. In terms of killing range and efficiency, there was no doubt that the decaying fog was more powerful than the Broken City. At the very least, it was more powerful than the Broken City, which had deliberately reduced its consumption of Origin Energy.
This was the power that an Origin Tool should have!
Allen alone had taken away a small portion of the Shadow Fiend army. According to his original plan, he should have retreated back to the cave. But when he saw the Crimson Shadow Demon charge at him, Allen changed his mind. He let out a long howl, and Gojoseon unsheathed. A streak of Vermillion Flame Lightning immediately exploded on the slope. Allen used Lightning Scampering, and wherever he passed, the Shadow Fiends would be thrown into the air. Any Shadow Fiends that were touched by the Heavenly Flame were immediately burned into fireballs.
Allen tore apart the gray stream on the slope with a single slash, then stepped on a path of fire towards the Giant Demon and the Crimson Shadow Demon. The Crimson Shadow Demon let out a strange cry and suddenly stabbed its hands into the Giant Demon's head. The Giant Demon seemed to have been provoked by something. Its grayish-white skin quickly swelled up, and an unnatural red flush appeared on its face. The big fellow's aura became unyielding and violent. It waved its mallet at Allen and howled.
The Crimson Shadow Demon jumped down from the Giant Demon's head and smiled at Allen sinisterly. It actually climbed up the cliff and threw Allen at the Giant Demon. The Crimson Shadow Demon obviously had a method to affect and increase the Giant Demon's combat power. At this moment, the Giant Demon seemed to have been injected with a stimulant. Before it even hit Allen, the Giant Demon was already swinging its mallet left and right. It didn't hurt the enemy, but it did kill or injure its own kind beside it.
As a result, no Shadow Fiends stayed by the Giant Demon's side. They automatically avoided the two sides that were about to fight, and pounced towards the many caves on the slope.
The battle started in an instant, and ended in an instant.
Allen wasn't willing to spend too much time on this Berserk Giant Demon. When the two sides met, Allen had an overwhelming advantage in terms of speed. After dodging the Berserk Giant Demon's mallet in an instant, Allen, who was behind the Giant Demon, jumped directly onto its back. Gojoseon spat out Bursting Flames, and the Giant Demon's head jumped high into the air. Although he had a strong life force, it was instantly lost along with the blood that gushed out of his neck like a fountain.
Sensing the Giant Demon's sudden loss of life force, the Crimson Shadow Demon in the gray stream couldn't help but look back. Coincidentally, Allen was also looking at it. At this moment, the Crimson Shadow Demon let out a threatening howl. It understood Allen's meaning … Wait for me!
Allen jumped off the Giant Demon's body, locked onto the Crimson Shadow Demon's position, and sprinted forward. Wherever Gojoseon pointed, the Shadow Demons left behind corpses. At this moment, the flood of Shadow Demons finally reached the cave where the caravan was hiding. However, due to the special environment of the Hundred Eyes Cave, the Shadow Demons couldn't make use of their advantage in numbers. Coupled with the suppressive firepower of the Inch Fire Archers in the cave above, the Shadow Demons couldn't move an inch.
The Crimson Shadow Demon let out a series of short howls, and a large group of Gray Demons swam up the cliff, wanting to attack the Inch Fire Archers above. The Crimson Shadow Demon, who was obviously the leader, wasn't stupid. It knew that if it wanted to kill this group of humans, it had to first eliminate the other party's advantage in firepower. Unfortunately, it didn't have time to continue giving orders. A scorching killing intent had already enveloped it. The Crimson Shadow Demon turned around, and saw Allen slashing at it from afar.
The only thing left in its eyes was a scarlet blade light!
The Crimson Shadow Demon let out a sharp howl, and used all its strength to press its limbs against the cliff, sweeping away. Thus, Allen's Siege Breaking Blade light slammed into the mountain wall, leaving a ten-meter-long crack of unknown depth, and a large piece of Shadow Demon's flesh and blood. The Crimson Shadow Demon jumped to the ground, and with a sharp howl, pounced at Allen. At the same time, the dozen or so Black Demons mixed in the gray stream attacked Allen at the same time.
Allen smiled faintly.
The Black Demons were the first to pounce. They surrounded Allen from the sky and from the ground, blocking the Crimson Shadow Demon's path. Then, the Crimson Shadow Demon saw a red bolt of lightning explode, and the dozen or so Black Demons were all sent flying. They had at least one slash, and at most several slashes. Every slash landed on a vital part, and heavenly fire spewed out from the wounds. Before it landed, the Black Shadow Demon had already burned through it from the inside out.
The Scarlet Demon opened its fingers wide, and its Origin Energy surged. A few dark red balls of fire appeared in front of it. It grabbed one of them and threw it at Allen, and the ball of fire instantly smashed into Allen. When the Crimson Shadow Demon saw that the human didn't dodge, as if he couldn't react in time, his eyes flashed with joy. However, the ball of fire exploded, but the explosive flames did not soar into the sky as it had imagined. Instead, they quickly retracted and extinguished.
After the flames, the human was unharmed, and there was even a mocking smile on his face.
"I didn't expect you to play with fire. You really scared me. It's a pity that you don't play with anything and actually play with fire. This is a huge joke. "Allen pointed his saber, and the flame marks on his body floated up. Immediately, his aura became a bit more dignified.
The Crimson Shadow Demon suddenly discovered that its fireball was out of control. Its Origin Energy quickly drifted away, and the fireball began to shrink until it was the size of a fist. Under the suppression of Allen's Fire Sovereign King, the Crimson Shadow Demon's fireball lost more than half of its power. Taking advantage of the confusion of the Shadow Demon Leader, Allen raised his saber and rushed forward, quickly interweaving with the Crimson Shadow Demon.
Then, Allen stopped looking at it and ran straight towards the gray torrent outside the cave.
The Crimson Shadow Demon's body trembled slightly, and the fist-sized fireballs completely disappeared. A red line quietly appeared on his neck. The red line continued to extend and split open. The Crimson Shadow Demon spat out blood wildly, and his entire head tilted back, almost sliced open by Allen's saber!
Without the help of the trolls and the Inch Fire Archers suppressing the Shadow Demons' attacks, coupled with the restrictions of the environment, the Shadow Demons had an advantage in numbers, but they were in a stalemate on the defensive line formed by the warriors outside the cave. When Allen joined the battle and the other experts attacked one after another, the Shadow Demons began to panic. However, they were in a mess and didn't retreat, which made Allen a little confused. The leader of the Shadow Devils had already been ambushed, so why were these fellows still attacking? Allen narrowed his eyes as a bad thought surfaced in his heart.
Could it be that there was more than one leader among the Shadow Demons? Just as he thought of this, another series of short howls sounded from the other side of the bend!
