The clash that he expected did not happen!
Grimm was not stupid enough to use his Earth Golem to fight against the Demon Hunter Knights, and he would not do such a stupid thing.
If they were Earth Golems, Grimm would not mind watching the clash of steel and rock. But forget about the Earth Golems!
One by one, the Earth Puppets had already sunk into the ground before they could even touch the demon hunters. Then, mud pillars that were half the height of a human and as thick as a child's arm rose from the ground and lined the path of the demon hunters in an orderly manner.
The Demon-Hunter Knights were indeed the pinnacle of combat power in this plane. Each and every one of them possessed superior riding skills and agility than an ordinary person. They commanded the demon colts beneath them to jump high and low, sometimes even leaping up from the tall ancient trees to avoid the obstacles of the mud pillars.
On the other hand, the Radiant Knights and the Magic-Breaker Knights who occupied the front of the team unleashed their Flame Blades and Frost Blades with all their might, destroying all obstacles in their way. Faced with such a strong enemy, the Earth Golems in charge of blocking the path could only change their tactics and use a large area of mud to block the way.
Patches of mud pillars, stone forests, patches of quicksand swamps. Although the Earth Demon Puppets didn't kill any of the Demon Hunters, they effectively delayed and hindered their advance.
While the Demon Hunters were in chaos, the Earth Golems emerged from the forest from time to time, throwing mud spears and small area of effect earth spears to attack the enemy. The battlefield was filled with small skirmishes between the Earth Golems and the Demon Hunters.
The aggressive attacks of the Earth Golems also disrupted the orderly formation of the Demon Hunters, turning the battlefield into countless small chaotic battle circles.
Unfortunately, the attacks of the Earth Golems were weak. Their mud spears could not penetrate the golden armor of the Demon Hunters. Instead, some of the Earth Golems that could not escape underground in time were chopped into pieces by the Demon Hunters that charged at them.
Almost a hundred Earth Golems were reduced at a speed visible to the naked eye!
The only Earth Golems that could be killed were the five Rock Pythons. Every time they drilled out of the ground, they would spit sand and stones and bite ferociously, causing the Demon Hunters to lose their horses. No matter how powerful the Armor of Faith was, it could not withstand the weight of a Rock Python that weighed more than ten tons. All the Demon Hunters that were targeted by the Rock Python were turned into a pile of bloody paste.
However, every time the Rock Python charged into the battlefield, its thick body would be chopped into pieces by the berserk knight's battle techniques, and rocks would shatter into pieces. Once the damage was severe, the Rock Python could only dive into the ground and wait for its body to automatically regenerate.
Most of the time, these Rock Pythons with the strength of Advanced or Quasi-Sorcerers could only mess up the enemy's battle line. It was unrealistic to expect them to kill the Demon Hunters on a large scale.
After Grim released all his stock, he handed over the command of the magic puppets to the A.I. Chip in his mind. With the A.I. Chip's superior view of the battlefield, as well as its meticulous and dynamic commands, although the number of magic puppets was decreasing, they were still able to restrain the entire army of knights.
With the help of the A.I. Chip, Grim no longer needed to spend so much effort controlling the hundreds of consciousness nodes. He only needed to focus on the Grand Pyromancer title.
Grim roamed freely on the battlefield.
He had transformed into a terrifying three-meter-tall Balrog. Elemental flames were spewing out from his body as he slowly walked on the battlefield. Wherever he passed, the soft black soil would be baked into semi-molten lava. A path of black and red lava could be clearly seen.
Grim held the Flame Scepter in his right hand and the Secret Voodoo Scroll in his left. He flipped the pages of the ancient Voodoo Scroll in his hand, adding a sense of mystery to the scroll.
Grim did not want to use the six instantaneous spells stored in the Secret Voodoo Scroll. In order to maximize his combat power, he had replaced the six instantaneous spells with the terrifying Molten Core, Flaming Storm, and other large-scale fire elemental spells.
Using them to attack the Demon Hunters? To be honest, Grim did not want to use them!
Grim moved slowly as he waved the Flame Scepter in his hand, throwing lava fireballs at the densest area of the Demon Hunters. As for those who dared to charge at him, Grimm would blast them into pieces with a barrage of fireballs.
The [Armor of Faith] might be able to help them resist simple witchcraft attacks, but against the incessant barrage of fireballs, even the thickest armor would be of no use.
The Demon Hunters who were charging forward while chanting the Knight's Motto were blasted to the ground by the sudden explosion of fireballs. Before they could get up from the ground, follow-up fireballs flew over, breaking through their Armor of Faith in a way that stacked damage, blowing up the armor on their bodies, and engulfing their bodies with a raging, scorching tide of flames.
After all, the Demon Hunters were made of flesh and blood. Without the protection of energy and armor, their excellent magic resistance was a joke in the face of the violent fireballs!
The fireballs exploded, and blood and flesh splattered everywhere!
The Demon Hunter Knights who were engulfed by the Chain Fireballs could not escape from the area of the flames. Their bodies, along with their demonic colts, would be blasted into unrecognizable pieces of flesh and blood in a matter of seconds.
Most of the Rune Arrows that they fired back were blocked by Grim's Lava Shield. Ever since Grim's defensive spells were upgraded from the Fire Shield to the Flame Shield, and now the Lava Shield, his defensive power had increased to an unimaginable level.
Until now, it was impossible to destroy the Lava Shield in one go without an attack of more than 150 degrees. As for the attacks below 150 degrees, although they would still cause some damage to the Lava Shield, Grim continued to inject his mental strength into the Lava Shield, and the Lava Shield was quickly repaired.
That was why the Lava Shield around Grim's body was full of Rune Arrows when the battle started, but it still could not stop it from working.
Occasionally, the Rune Arrows that managed to get past the Lava Shield would not be able to penetrate Grim's thick Lava Shield. The Rune Arrows that were spewing out from Grim's body were roasted until they were almost white. Then, they softened like hot wax, and finally turned into a puddle of molten iron.
As for the Demon Hunter Knights who tried to engage him in melee combat, Grimm responded with a flaming whip. The Flame Whip, which was made of pure high-temperature flames, would leave a scorch mark wherever it hit. If one got entangled by the Flame Whip, their flesh and blood would be ignited in the next second.
Although Grim was an Elemental Sorcerer, when he transformed into a Balrog, his combat power was comparable to that of an Abyssal Balrog. If he was far away, he would bombard the enemy with fireballs. If he was close, he would use the Flame Whip, and if he got any closer, he would switch to a giant flaming sword.
A three-meter-tall Flame Man wielding a giant flaming sword made of flames and lava would be enough to chop down a large group of people even without the help of martial arts.
Not to mention touching such a tyrannical weapon, even if one were to get a little closer, one would be able to feel the oppressive pressure and the burning sensation of the world. Moreover, Grim's 30-meter-wide Flame Barrier was a domain-type spell. Any living creature that entered within 30 meters of him would suffer 13 points of fire damage per second.
This also meant that an unarmed human would die in less than two seconds in Grim's Flame Barrier. Although the Demon Hunters were slightly better, they could only last for 27 seconds at most. That was with the help of the Armor of Faith. Otherwise, the time would be halved.
Therefore, under Grimm's powerful attacks, wherever he went, there were demon hunters struggling in pain. Behind him, there were piles of demon hunters that were blasted into charcoal.
Of course, Grim's unscrupulous slaughter had angered the Radiant Knights who led the team. One by one, they slapped their demon colts, raised their rune swords that were as bright as torches, and roared as they charged towards him.
Grim had no intention of fighting the Radiant Knights.
Whenever this happened, he would pause for a moment, and with a burst of magical flames, his tall flaming body would disappear without a trace. Of course, in the next second, the terrifying Balrog would appear in another area a hundred meters away.
The Wind Breath Monster was overseeing the entire situation, and the Earth Golem was joking around. The entire chaotic battlefield was as clear as an unfolded book in Grim's mind. Not a single change in any battlefield or individual within a three-kilometer radius could escape his all-encompassing spiritual senses.
At every moment, countless blurry information was being fed back to him from his consciousness. With the A.I. Chip's massive data filtering and analysis, Grim was able to clearly grasp the situation around him, allowing him to walk on the most optimal path.
There were no Radiant Knights in the battlefield he was involved in, and he would not be surrounded by a large group of Magic-breaking Knights along the way. As for the Demon Hunters who were crippled but determined, as long as they did not join forces, they would not pose a threat to Grim.
The battlefield was chaotic, and there were many Magi who took the opportunity to sneak in and start a massacre. There was also a large number of Earth Golems and wizard beasts rampaging in the battlefield. The Radiant Knights who wanted to find trouble with Grimm chased after him for a while, but their attention was attracted by the new enemies and they fell into a sudden battle.
