There were no mechanical bees to ride on the way back. Since Claudia was by his side, and Grimm did not use the Starfall Reconnaissance Craft, their speed was much slower.
One month later.
The six Void Fortresses in the sky were like six crimson moons, still flying at a slow but steady speed to conserve energy.
Now, the Void Fortresses had flown out of the Dark Destroyer Empire's borders, reaching the skies above the Darkglow Empire's surrounding vassal states.
Along the way, Grimm and Claudia were mistaken for and interrogated by sorcerers, asked for help by the Acraepoids, and flew together with the Acraepoids. These were common occurrences for infiltration missions behind enemy lines.
Rumble rumble rumble …
The Void Fortresses maintained a dull mechanical sound in the clouds at all times. Each Void Fortress could see each other.
The Void Fortresses were sometimes buried in the thick clouds, sometimes flying in the clear sky, but their direction never changed.
"Ahhh … Young Master, the wind here is a little hot."
Little Eight, who was standing on Grimm's shoulder, suddenly said.
"That's because you got sick from the Abyss Erosion. I told you not to eat that fruit, but you didn't listen. Now you're feeling bad, aren't you?"
Grimm glared at Little Eight and took out a small bottle of potion.
"Drink this, you'll be fine in two days. Sooner or later, you and Blackie will both die of gluttony."
Gulp!
After Little Eight swallowed the potion, she shouted, "Lord Ba won't die young like that d * mned Black Cat!"
Ignoring Little Eight, Grimm and Claudia landed on the Void Fortress. Grimm turned around and said, "I need to go to the Battle Command to submit my mission schedule analysis. You go ahead first."
"Hehe, don't forget that I'll be waiting for you for thirty years."
The two of them had returned to their human forms. Claudia said to Grimm in a playful tone, winking at him, and the corners of her red lips curled up slightly.
"Yes."
Grimm responded with a grunt. Leaning on his Sabbatic Goat Staff, he walked step by step toward the Battle Command inside the Void Fortress. He submitted the information about his accidental participation in the Collapse of Faith mission and the investigation report on the Abyssal Moss mission in the Sangrun Gree Vassal Kingdom.
A Rank-1 Honor Badge Demon-Hunter Sorcerer could issue missions through the Void Fortress to influence the progress of the Demon-Hunting Expedition.
However, in most cases, a Rank-1 Honor Badge Demon-Hunter Sorcerer's earnings were obtained through such mission investigation reports.
Of course, Grimm did not forget to nominate the Demon-Hunter Sorcerer who used blood crystals to replace the Abyssal Moss Magical Array Crystal.
…
Half a month later.
The sound of a bugle horn reverberated throughout the stronghold. Following a loud boom, the entire stronghold trembled as a dark red pillar of light erupted from the Annihilation Cannon of the Essence Space Stronghold.
In an instant, a large area of the Flame Burrows of the Boldegren Force Kingdom was either destroyed or collapsed by the aftermath of the cannon. It was a mess.
The Dark Demon-Hunter Sorcerers had not infiltrated this place yet, so there was no sign of the abyssal phenomenon.
As the Void Fortress was not moving fast, the Acraepoids in the capital city had enough time to escape. At this time, except for a small number of Acraepoids who chose to stay behind to resist, most of them had evacuated.
Some of them retreated towards the Darkglow Kingdom, while others scattered in the mountains to hide.
"No!"
The Acraepoid guards in the city looked at the once prosperous Flame Burrows. In an instant, they fell one after another. The capital city seemed to be wiped out by a giant hand, leaving a large area of emptiness. They could not help but roar in despair and pain.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Ferocious slave monsters bared their fangs and brandished their claws, roaring as they swooped down from the sky. Some huge slave monsters, which were tens of meters in size, roared as they ran amok on the street, grabbed the middle of the towering Flame Burrow, or relied on their strong bodies to hit the foundation of the Flame Burrow.
The small slave monsters dived into the Flame Burrows one after another. The sounds of fighting, roaring, and wailing were endless.
From time to time, blood would flow out from the windows of the Flame Burrows.
Or the Acraepoids who wanted to escape from the Flame Burrows through the windows were dragged back into the Flame Burrows by the unknown monsters behind them.
The defensive power of the Acraepoids here was far from enough to cause any trouble to the huge group of slave monsters in the fortress. In other words, they could only provide some food for the slave monsters.
After a while, the Demon-Hunter Sorcerers descended from the sky and flew towards the Flame Burrows one by one.
Some of the lucky Demon-Hunter Sorcerers might have unexpected gains, while the unlucky Demon-Hunter Sorcerers could only try to destroy a few towering Flame Burrows to earn a little more mission commission.
In the face of the absolute advantage of the sorcerers, the vassal capital city that once carried the glorious civilization of the Acraepoids, the capital city that consumed half of the life of a Level-3 Acraepoid who had the potential to become an Infernal God, was easily destroyed.
The Darkglow Shrine in the capital city.
Tens of thousands of Acraepoids crawled on the ground, using all their strength to sing the Darkglow Bible, hoping that the Infernal God of Gloom would save the capital from the disaster.
The loose robes of the shrine priests were fluttering, and the power of the Darkglow burned like a flame.
Their power all came from the Infernal God of Gloom. At this time, under the singing of the Acraepoids, the amount of Darkglow divine power that they could summon was almost twice as much as before!
The chief priest had already turned into a twenty-meter black flame. Looking at a twenty-meter scaled monster that swooped down from the sky, he pointed with one finger and roared, "Divine Spell, Dark Arrow!"
The thick Darkglow divine power condensed into a few meters long arrow along with the chief priest's roar. With a "swoosh" sound, it flashed and pierced through the scaled monster.
This scaled monster's vitality was really amazing.
Even though it was penetrated by the Darkglow divine power, even though the holes and organs were burning with Darkglow power, it still roared and rushed towards the tens of thousands of Acraepoids crawling on the ground in the square.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh …
Although the power of the Infernal God summoned by the other priests could not be used with divine spells, it was enough to increase the strength of these ordinary Acraepoids who had almost no combat power in a short period of time. They turned into shadows and rushed towards the slave monsters.
The chief priest suddenly opened his eyes, and the aura of the black flame rose sharply. A steady stream of Darkglow divine power gathered in the shrine church and replenished it.
The chief priest no longer paid attention to the scaled monster that had reached the end of its life. His gaze passed over a thirty-meter tall ice elemental monster and fell on the powerful sorcerer who was sitting on the fiery red flying carpet and looking at him mockingly!
With a "puff", the chief priest, wrapped in the raging Darkglow divine power, solemnly opened the Darkglow Grand Ceremony in his hand.
"The power of the Infernal God, the source of the Darkglow, inextinguishable in life and death!"
With the chief priest's divine spell, the majestic divine power gathered. His skin began to wither at a speed visible to the naked eye, his eyes became more and more cloudy, and his breathing became weaker and weaker. However, the aura of his power had increased to a terrifying level!
The sorcerer on the red flying carpet raised his head and looked at the sky.
It was as if a ten-meter palm of black flame was slowly pressing down on him.
Shaking his head, this Level-3 Demon-Hunter Sorcerer did not seem to care.
Sure enough, after a short while, the hundred-meter palm seemed to be squeezed by some external force. After a slight struggle, it was dispelled. It did not pose any threat to the sorcerer on the red flying carpet at all.
"Hehehe, trying to communicate with the power of the World Lord in front of so many Stigmata Sorcerers, you really overestimate yourself."
The Demon-Hunter Sorcerer on the fiery red flying carpet was full of mockery.
The Darkglow chief priest looked up at the sky. The bloody moons high up in the sky were so mysterious, filled with an ominous and unknown aura, making people feel fear and despair.
The Darkglow power on the chief priest was getting weaker and weaker, and then his body withered like an old piece of bark. With a "thud", he fell to the ground.
"Argh …"
Some pounced down from the sky, some ran over from the ground, and many slave monsters charged into the square from all directions. These believers who were praying all cried out and turned into food for the monsters.
…
The Saint of Boldegren Power took one last look at the capital city that he had built for more than a thousand years, looking at this vassal country that belonged to him.
With a "woo" sound, he spat out a mouthful of dark green blood.
When the blood fell to the ground, it was like boiling water, bubbling non-stop.
"Hehehehe, the curse on your body has reached the depths of your internal organs. Take one last look at the lowly world that you live in tremble under the Sorcerer's Will and be destroyed."
Another capital city of a vassal country that tried to resist the Sorcerer's Will was completely destroyed.
