Before the door opened, Hao Ren did not feel nervous at all. Although his professional caution made him tell everyone to stay away from the door, he did not think that there was much danger behind the door. It was not that he was careless, but the environment around him made him feel relaxed. As far as he could see, the periphery of the entire experimental base was intact and clean as new. It did not look like there had been any external invasion or internal loss of control at all. The emergency evacuation seemed to be due to something else.
But in the end, he didn't completely let down his guard because of this, and this reserve of vigilance was effective. Before the door was completely opened, he suddenly felt his heart tighten, and a sense of danger assaulted his heart, causing him to dodge to the side while loudly warning, "Retreat! Danger! "
Almost before his voice trailed off, a white light shot out from the door like a bolt of lightning. The white light seemed to split the space, leaving countless dark cracks in the air along the way. The white light slanted downwards, and although it was fleeting, it had already left a shocking scorch mark on the alloy ground that was stronger than any alloy on Earth.
The power of this blow was almost equivalent to a small plasma cannon blast!
But thanks to Hao Ren's timely warning of the opening of the door, the powerful blast did not cause any fatal consequences. Only a mage apprentice who could not dodge in time was injured by the aftermath of the explosion. The apprentice hurriedly put up an arcane shield did not block the high-temperature and high-pressure blast, and the unfortunate apprentice was thrown a few meters away and hit the wall.
Hao Ren instantly took out two spears from his dimensional pocket — the plasma warblade and the divine spear Gungnir. He flipped over and landed with the two spears in front of him as he looked in the direction of the open door.
A humanoid creature shrouded in pale white flames rushed out from within.
Everyone only saw a flash of white light, and Hao Ren was already fighting with the white humanoid creature with his spear. They could only hear a series of explosions in the air. The face of the flaming enemy could not even be seen because all the details of his or her appearance had been covered by the sacred flame. Hao Ren felt dizzy as all he could see were the afterimages of punches and kicks. It was almost impossible for him to keep up with the rhythm of the battle. He was completely relying on his demigod intuition and physical strength to resist the enemy's crazy attack!
Although the two spears were made by mortals, one was the crystallization of all the Aerymian technology and had undergone a series of subsequent enhancements by Hao Ren. The other was simply a legendary weapon on Earth, the strongest weapon of the Asgardians in Northern Europe. As a weapon, they could crush any material on Holletta. But after dozens of rounds of fighting with the flaming enemy, Hao Ren found that the two spears were scorching and deformed!
He had used these two weapons to test the Sacred Flame of ordinary demon hunters, and nothing like this had happened!
Taking advantage of this brief opportunity, Hao Ren quickly retreated and put the two spears back into the dimensional pocket. At the same time, the enemy wrapped in pale flames did not let go of the opportunity to attack. The tamed beast let out a strange howl and pounced on Hao Ren like a tiger or wolf hunting its prey!
Hao Ren twisted his upper body and reached behind him with one hand. A dark longsword with countless stars floating on its surface appeared out of thin air. He spun half a circle on the spot and stuck out the blade from an angle that was definitely a visual blind spot, slashing at the enemy's ribs.
However, the enemy seemed to have noticed the attack without any blind spots. Tam's body split into countless silver-white sparks in an instant, and then these sparks were teleported tens of meters away and gathered on the other side of the hall.
But this gave Hao Ren a moment of respite, and he could finally see the enemy's appearance — at least a general shape.
It was really a 'person' with a burning sacred flame. The flame was silver-white or platinum-white, very similar to the Sacred Flame used by the demon hunters, but purer and more powerful. The flame roughly outlined the graceful and slender figure of a woman. Finally, Hao Ren figured out whether the attacker was a man or a woman. But gender seemed to be meaningless to the opponent because her whole body was made of this flame, and there were no facial features or body details at all. This state reminded Hao Ren of White Flame's unique skill: the Incarnation of the Sacred Flame.
But compared to White Flame who could only maintain the form of the Sacred Flame temporarily, the creature in front of him was obviously more powerful. At least in terms of control of the Sacred Flame, she had reached the level of the true incarnation of fire.
Perhaps she was really a mass of Sacred Flame energy with a human form. After all, this was the place where the Ancient Magic Empire 'developed' the demon hunters. It was not surprising to see some strange by-products of the experiment.
These thoughts flashed through Hao Ren's mind, but his hands did not slow down. He instantly drew out the other Godslayer, which was the autistic one, and crossed the two swords in front of him. At the same time, he shouted, "Vivian! Lily! "
The husky and the vampire maiden had already launched their attacks without Hao Ren's detailed instructions. Lily drew out Frostmourne and Flamejoy and rushed toward the enemy like a whirling storm. Vivian flew in the air but did not attack immediately. Instead, she used the bats to create a powerful ball of lightning energy, waiting for Lily's strong attack to force out the enemy's weakness. Then, a ball of lightning would smash down.
Hao Ren followed Lily's pace with the two swords in his hands. If Lily's attack was successful, he would cooperate and beat the enemy while she was down. If Lily was in trouble, he could help.
The three of them attacked and retreated in an orderly manner, but the Sacred Flame Incarnation was not easy to deal with. When Lily wielded the Frostfire Claws and slashed at the Sacred Flame Incarnation, the Sacred Flame Incarnation once again exploded into flames and instantly teleported to the other side of the hall.
Hao Ren had a headache. The demon hunter's most infuriating ability was an unreasonable bug-like talent: no cost, no cooldown, no casting time, blinding teleportation within sight!
How on earth did those powerful Mage Emperors allow a mortal species to possess such a heaven-defying ability!
The Sacred Flame Incarnation completed the teleportation and reassembly in an instant. This time, she landed near a group of apprentice mages. The apprentice mages were obviously not skilled and lacked combat experience. They were a little stunned when the enemy suddenly teleported in front of them. It was not until one of them was blown away by an energy explosion that they came to their senses and hurriedly cast a variety of magic protection on themselves.
Fortunately, their teacher reacted much faster than them. Master Hymer had taken out a simple hardwood staff. He pointed the staff at the 'Sacred Flame Incarnation' and uttered a word that was so obscure that it was almost impossible to pronounce it in human language.
Several colorful beams of light descended from the sky, trapping the "Holy Flame Incarnation" like a cage. Countless tiny sparks of energy burst out between the beams of light, filling up the gaps between the beams of light in the blink of an eye, forming a solid seal.
Trapped for a moment, the Sacred Flame Incarnation suddenly let out an angry roar. Her body seemed to become unstable, and began to bloom a flame-like turbulence. These flame-like turbulence bombarded the energy barrier, causing the energy barrier to make a series of teeth-aching cracking sounds.
Hao Ren immediately shouted, "The barrier can't hold her! She is naturally resistant to all binding spells! "
Another bug-like talent of the demon hunter: born with an affinity for all magic, born with resistance to all magic, and almost able to break almost any kind of pure energy-based seal.
This was why they were known as the spellcasters' nemesis on Earth. Even in Holletta, the Ancients, who shared the same origin as the demon hunter, had the same reputation.
Hymer was not ignorant of the powerful talents of the Ancients in the world. If he were to face a normal Ancient, he would certainly choose to deal with it more cautiously. But the situation was too sudden, and the Sacred Flame Incarnation was far different from the traditional impression of the Ancients. The archmage did not immediately connect the two. He thought that the Sacred Flame Incarnation was just an out-of-control energy creature that escaped from an ancient laboratory. This situation was not uncommon. He had faced it once or twice, and the Elemental Barrier was indeed the most effective response to energy creatures.
But it could not trap the Sacred Flame of the demon hunter.
After several impacts of the flame turbulence, the energy structure of the Elemental Barrier collapsed. Almost at the moment when it collapsed, countless silver flames danced and disappeared before everyone's eyes in the blink of an eye.
"Everyone, be careful!" Hao Ren held his two swords and was on high alert. "She's still in the hall. Her teleportation is limited to the range of her vision! Becky, lead the knights to guard the exit. Don't let her out! "
Becky immediately responded and led a group of knights to the entrance door. Hymer had closed the door after they came in. But now that it had lost its magic, it was at best a sturdier door. If no one guarded it, the monster would probably break in.
"I think that she might have already slipped away," the Godslayer muttered. "Look, it's been a few seconds, and she still hasn't shown herself. Maybe she'll even go through the wall when she's invisible, and then watch you guys pose from the outside … Don't you think so, brother?"
The Worldbreaker shook and uttered a short syllable, "Oh."
But just when Hao Ren was beginning to doubt it, Lily suddenly said loudly, "She must be still here. I can feel it!"
