Zeta didn't understand what "ten thousand black crystal coins" meant. Facing the girl's punch that contained strong determination, he instinctively felt unprecedented danger. He hurriedly activated the bloodline talent of the Great Demon Tribe, teleportation, and barely avoided the blow.
With the Demon Overlord-level power level and talent, the distance of this teleportation was very far, but it couldn't escape the girl's powerful perception ability. She immediately judged the position of Zeta's teleportation. She stepped in the air and closed the distance in the blink of an eye.
This kind of flying ability made Zeta's eyelids twitch. The magic wand in his hand emitted a strong wind element magic fluctuation, and an extremely powerful blue lightning struck the girl.
The girl didn't dodge as if she didn't see the lightning. She didn't use any defensive or dodging means either. She let the lightning hit her body.
"Zizizi …"
Amidst the electric arc, the girl shook the remaining electric debris on her body nonchalantly as if it was just an insignificant breeze. She flew toward Zeta without slowing down.
Zeta could hardly believe his eyes. This lightning seemed ordinary, but it was his proud work of studying compound magic. In addition to lightning, it also contained the power of the water element. Its power was several times that of ordinary lightning magic. Even a powerhouse of the same level couldn't take it head-on without dodging, but the girl did it.
At this time, Zeta could no longer use the Great Demon's [Teleportation] talent, but he still had the [Teleportation] magic. He used [Teleportation] again to open the distance. The moment he stabilized his figure, the quickly brewing magic was launched again. Several poisonous clouds mixed with white mist sprayed out and wrapped the girl.
This was a combination of the 2 magic, [Poison Cloud] and [Ice Explosion]. Unfortunately, it was still useless. The girl passed through the exploding poisonous cloud casually. Even the cloak on her body wasn't torn at all.
Zeta's back was already full of cold sweat. He teleported away again without using any offensive magic. [Decelerate], [Weaken], [Curse] … He launched all of them at the girl, trying to destroy the opponent's attack rhythm.
The girl received all of them as before, but she was a little tired of this enemy's repeated futile attacks. She looked at the position and came in front of Zeta in the blink of an eye. She punched him head-on. Before the punch reached him, the terrifying fluctuations caused the space to distort slightly. Judging from the speed and power of the punch, it was not affected by the debuff magic at all. Zeta was horrified. He had cast the magic too quickly just now, and there was no time to use the teleportation magic. He immediately patted the magic tools on his body, and a round transparent magic shield immediately appeared around him.
The girl's punch hit the shield, and the originally sturdy circular shield turned into an oval shape under the extremely terrifying pressure. Even Zeta, who was wrapped in it, was sent flying far away.
Although the protective shield blocked this punch, Zeta didn't feel good at all. It was as if he was in a stormy sea and could be crushed at any time. His nose and the corners of his mouth couldn't bear the pressure anymore as blood flowed out.
The shield lost a lot of magic power support under the pressure. Finally, it disappeared without a trace. Zeta swayed and almost fell to the ground. He felt like he had escaped from death.
Immune to magic and powerful attack power. This was the nemesis of all Mages. What could they use to fight him?
Seeing the girl rushing over again, Zeta, who was scared out of his wits, couldn't care about Samoer anymore. He unleashed his extraordinary potential, exerted his flying skill to the extreme, and fled far away with all his strength.
"Escape? The conspiracy to make me deduct money is simply unforgivable! " The girl's voice flew away with Zeta's figure. Looking from afar, she seemed to have turned into a huge black cloud-like body, then a horrifying scream sounded faintly …
Samoer had no time to pay attention to so much. He didn't even have the chance to fight the mysterious cloaked cavalry leader because there was a terrifying enemy wrapped in flames in front of him. The other party hadn't activated the territory yet, but the breath of power made Samoer's territory tremble. Toro Family's elder who surrendered to the Dark Moon, Demon Overlord Vanim!
It's over! It's completely over! Not only me, but also the entire army.
The surging flame power in the sky had wrapped Samoer's territory tightly. There was no hope of escape.
For some reason, Samoer suddenly thought of the battle with the mysterious cavalry leader that night. Although he saw the enemy cavalry general in a cloak and the skill similar to [Magic Shadow Charge], a subtle feeling told him that the opponent that night was Nesta.
At this point, what the truth was was no longer important because he lost.
Winner takes all. It was that simple.
Even if he escaped back to the Red Spirit City, there was only one result for him, a defeated general who was completely annihilated. As for whether Nesta was innocent or not, it was meaningless. If he surrendered to the Dark Moon, there would also be no good result. Let alone the hatred with Nesta, the Dark Moon would be destroyed sooner or later with the capital's military strength.
Samoer felt that his territory power was on the verge of collapse under the Demon Overlord-level flame. If he didn't want to be captured alive, there was only one way left.
Samoer's face showed a fierce and resolute expression. He made the biggest and last decision in his life. The extremely oppressed power of his whole body suddenly became manic as if it was some kind of terminal lucidity. His blood vessels and muscles began to swell terrifyingly.
"Boom!"
The one-sided battle came to an end very quickly. There was no suspense in the outcome of the thirty thousand elite soldiers who had been waiting for their fatigue against the ten thousand exhausted and leaderless soldiers.
A few days later.
Outside the Red Spirit City, the coalition army camp.
Obsidian listened to the military report in front with a pale face.
The Nether Hydra Legion and 2 estates, a total of 90,000 people, were all annihilated.
The Nether Hydra Legion's commander, Samoer, died.
The 2 lords, Sauter and Jox, were captured.
The elder of the elder family, the Kamon Family, Demon Overlord Zeta, was captured.
Kanita, the heir of the Red Spirit Estate, died.
The Magic Shadow Legion's commander, Nesta, led 4,000 Magic Shadow Legion cavalries to surrender to the enemy.
This was a complete fiasco. The 90,000 vanguard troops were all annihilated without exception.
Soon, the 3 captured people were released by the Dark Moon, including the 2 lords and the elder family's Demon Overlord. The Dark Moon publicly declared that Obsidian was the Dark Moon's biggest enemy by forcing the lords and elder families to conquer the Dark Moon. However, the Dark Moon had no enmity with the estates and elder families. In order to show goodwill, the captives were released this time, but it would not happen again. If the lords and elder families stubbornly wanted to help "Black" to abuse, the Dark Moon would never be merciful. Samoer's fate was an example.
Although the 3 captives were released, they were imprisoned by a strange force, unable to exert their strength.
From the 3 of them, Obsidian and the lords learned about the battle, including the truth that Nesta was "framed" by Samoer for personal revenge and was finally forced to surrender to the enemy angrily.
Somehow, this truth was quickly publicized. There were also news of Kanita's murder and the capital army's various atrocities in the Red Spirit Estate. The entire Red Spirit Estate was discussing – Regent Obsidian forced the loyal minister to rebel, appointed villains, and killed the lord's heir, Kanita. The capital army is perverse and cruel. It is not comparable to the Dark Moon's "invaders" …
The Red Spirit Lord, Josh, complained to Obsidian about the wrongful death of his heir, Kanita, and the various misdeeds of the Nether Hydra Legion in Town Mordo in front of all the lords. This made Obsidian even more embarrassed. He had the urge to put together the fragments of Samoer's self-destruction and whip the corpse. For the "victim", Josh, Obsidian could only try his best to appease him. He promised to personally preside over Kanita's funeral, confer the posthumous title of the empire's brave general, and appoint Josh as the coalition army's chief affairs officer in charge of orders and military supplies. This was a lucrative job, and it was also a compensation for Josh.
Just when Josh was organizing Kanita's funeral, something unexpected happened again. The elder of the Kamon Family, Demon Overlord Zeta, who was released, suddenly died.
This incident caused a commotion among the elder families. In order to become an elder family, qualifications and strength were the 2 biggest factors. The Demon Overlord was equivalent to the strongest pillar of strength of an elder family. Now that Zeta died suddenly, the Kamon Family was equivalent to being strong in appearance but weak in reality. It would inevitably decline.
Obsidian quickly convened a military meeting. At the meeting, he angrily denounced the Dark Moon's conspiracy to murder Zeta. Unfortunately, the elder families' reaction to this was generally relatively indifferent. The Dark Moon had announced that they would publicly release the elder families and lord captives. Making a move at this time was tantamount to shooting oneself in the foot. Moreover, many people in the elder families had checked Zeta's body. It was not some confinement method that activated. There was no damage on the surface, but his internal organs were all shattered. This kind of power could only be achieved by at least the strength of the Demon Emperor level.
The Dark Moon has a Demon Emperor-level spy who sneaked into the coalition army and killed the released captive, Zeta? Some representatives of the elder families couldn't help but sneer.
Obsidian was not a fool. He saw the doubts of the elder families, but he could only turn a blind eye to it. In the current situation, explaining too much would only make things worse. He could only gloss it over and swallow this grievance.
The focus of this military meeting was to discuss the issue of marching to the Dark Moon. The 2 defeats of the Magic Shadow Legion and the Nether Hydra Legion had frustrated the morale of the capital coalition army. The Dark Moon's morale was at its peak, but this could not offset the disparity in strength between the 2 sides.
The coalition army was currently in urgent need of a victory to inspire morale. Deputy Commander Gerant proposed that now that the army had rested and reorganized, they should immediately set off to attack the Dark Moon.
Obsidian added: We either don't move in this battle, or we will sweep the enemy with thunderous momentum once we move.
The new chief affairs officer, Josh, stood up and first expressed his approval of the proposal to dispatch the entire army. At the same time, he pointed out that the Dark Moon was cunning and should not be underestimated. They must be mentally prepared to fight a tough battle, so the logistics must be properly prepared and arranged. It was better to have more than less. At present, it would still take a certain amount of time to prepare.
Josh's suggestion was to make full preparations before sending troops to destroy the Dark Moon in one fell swoop under the premise of paying the least amount of losses.
This experienced and prudent suggestion was echoed by most of the lords, especially with the lesson of the complete annihilation of Sauter and Jox. The Dark Moon was definitely a tough opponent. It was impossible to defeat them without breaking a few teeth. Everyone wanted to reduce their own losses.
Gerant thought about it and agreed. Obsidian saw that everyone agreed, so he immediately decided to take a temporary rest and reorganize. After the logistics materials are all in place according to the standards proposed by Josh, the entire army will attack and wipe out the Dark Moon!
This intelligence appeared on the table of the Dark Moon Palace council hall for the first time. It was surrounded by the main members of the estate who were participating in the meeting.
The 2 great victories against the capital's Magic Shadow Legion and the Nether Hydra Legion excited the Dark Moon's soldiers and civilians. Nesta, who surrendered to the Dark Moon, was appointed as the deputy legion commander of the Red Blood Legion to lead the cavalry.
Originally, the Dark Moon had 30,000 cavalries. This time, there were 4,700 cavalries who surrendered with Nesta. Together with more than 7,000 Magic Shadow cavalries who were captured in the Moonlight Fortress, there were more than 40,000 cavalries in total.
Putting a surrendered general in such an important position showed Jía's extraordinary courage. Nesta was grateful. He made a blood oath in the name of the royal family in front of the Dark Moon's king and ministers never to betray.
In addition to boosting morale, the surrender of the capital's famous general also improved Jía's influence to a certain extent.
Jía was indeed a very courageous lord, but this appointment had nothing to do with courage because Nesta had already become the puppet of Chen Rui's "God-Eating Mask" long ago.
Originally, there were 2 puppets of the "God-Eating Mask". One was Broc's capable general, the peak stage of the Demon Emperor Loki; the other was Kanita. Alvin, the son of the Red Spirit Lord Josh. Due to the limited number of puppets, when Chen Rui turned Nesta into a puppet, he first deprived Kanita of his life.
As for Kanita, who appeared in front of Samoer later, he was a slime that could transform into any form. In the beginning, the slime pretended to be a lord and was domineering in the Red Spirit Estate for a while. Then, he had been following Royce and acting as a bystander. Now, he worked exceptionally hard in front of his master. From the beginning of rushing out to the "tragic" collapse of being shot by an arrow in the end, every line and every action was on point. He successfully completed the historical mission of "Kanita".
Those arrows were actually just tickles for Dodo who had an immortal body.
With the obedient puppets and the characters that could transform freely, the Bloodmist Valley was actually a good show to lure the capital army into an ambush. Only the Magic Shadow Legion cavalries were kept in the dark.
What Samoer saw outside Town Mordo that night was the real Nesta, but the cavalries under his command were the soldiers of the Dark Moon. In the end, Samoer was lured into the Black Mountain Forest, and the 90,000 soldiers and horses that went on the expedition were all wiped out. The indignant Magic Shadow Legion cavalries also truly surrendered to the Dark Moon.
In this game, the Red Spirit Lord Josh was the most authentic character. Because of this, he could swagger and give advice in front of Obsidian. If he was a puppet or a fake, perhaps he couldn't hide from the capital's powerhouse.
As early as after the war of lords, Josh, who was seriously injured, was imprisoned. Dodo pretended to be Josh, and he used Kanita's fake rebellion to eradicate Josh's confidants. He also supported Royce and the others to take over. Without arousing the capital's suspicion, he successfully took full control of the Red Spirit's situation.
In order to save his life, Josh chose to surrender and become Chen Rui's servant. He also accepted a chronic toxin from Paglio, which allowed him to return to the position of lord. In fact, he was a puppet controlled by the Dark Moon.
Jía had occupied 3 of the empire's 4 major estates.
In the capital's crusade against the Dark Moon this time, Josh became the most important chess piece. He used Kanita's death to get an important position, and he plotted against Zeta, further deepening the conflict between the elder families and Obsidian. At present, Josh's main task was still to lurk. This chess piece would not be moved easily until the most critical time.
"Chen Rui stays. The rest of you can leave." Jía looked at the latest intel and said faintly.
Everyone got up and retreated. Isabella's beautiful eyes behind the veil glanced at Jía faintly. She paused on Chen Rui's face for a moment, then she left.
