Just like the other Voidwalkers, Baiyi did not believe the swindling demoness at all. There was no doubt that the Void Lord, Thaas, was a powerful being but he should be dead by now. There was no reason for him to be alive. Then, the demoness must be just trying to make herself look good.
However, the demoness seemed to be enjoying something. She was not in a hurry to order her subordinates to attack Baiyi. Instead, she continued to chatter, "I-I admire people like you. Not only do you have great courage, but the despair in your determination when you are being tortured is the sweetest tonic for me..."
Baiyi could not help but raise his hand to stop her. He said, "Even if you are a Tiamat, you talk too much nonsense. If Thaas was alive, he would never let someone like you be the commander."
The so-called Tiamat could be understood as a higher variant of the succubus. She looked just like the one in front of him and the few tentacles on her back was her distinguishing mark. Her biggest hobby was just like what she had said, to taste the despair of human beings. That was why this species of demons especially liked to torture their opponents like a cat catching a mouse. That kind of behavior was common to the demons but it did not matter where it was. Even on the battlefield, it was undoubtedly stupid. Any great demon who had any understanding of war would never let such a thing be the commander of the frontline.
His words had successfully angered the other party. The Tiamat Evelyn put away the look of enjoyment on her face and said coldly, "Looks like you have no idea what you are facing right now..." Having said that, the demons under her command began to surround Baiyi.
Facing the demons that were pouncing on him, Baiyi stood motionlessly at the same spot. He placed the Saint Quartz staff in front of his chest with his left hand placed on the tip of the staff and his right hand in the middle of the staff. Once again, he made the starting gesture of a Moro sorcerer.
"Oh? You are a Moro sorcerer?" Surprisingly, the Chaos Demoness recognized this unique stance. She said with great interest, "I thought all of you were already dead."
Faced with such a provocation, Baiyi narrowed his eyes and the staff in his hand began to spin at high speed, once again forming an impenetrable shadow of the staff. At the same time, the few hellhounds that were closest to him that were pouncing towards his throat seemed to have suffered some kind of invisible heavy blow. After a series of crackling sounds, their heads exploded at the same time. Green blood mist enveloped the few headless corpses as they were blown back to the Banshee's feet by a strong gust of wind, allowing her to see more clearly.
This made the banshee's face show a moment of shock. The Hellhounds were not like the Fallen. Their bodies were still very tough, especially their heads. Their skulls were often used to make helmets. She did not expect that the guy dressed as a sorcerer in front of her could smash them like a watermelon with brute force …
The Tiamat was sure that even if Mara was here, he would not be able to do this.
After all, no matter how powerful Mara was at that time, in terms of strength compared to Baiyi who had received the blessing of the ancestors, he was still a far cry.
Seeing that he had temporarily stunned his opponent, Baiyi also stopped his attack. Slamming his Saint Quartz staff on the ground, he shouted in unison with the Little Sorcerer in the Void.
"If all of you are still alive, how could I possibly die?"
"Kill him! Chop him into minced meat! "The Tiamat ordered angrily. It was rare for her to give up the idea of torturing her opponent.
With that, the Minotaurs brandished all kinds of giant weapons and pounced towards the seemingly thin and small Baiyi. At the back of the battle formation, some of the Boar Demons also raised their crudely made bows and blow darts and shot a series of green arrows at Baiyi.
However, how could they possibly defeat the Fifth Walker with such an attack?
Once again, Baiyi used Mara's signature staff technique, Mara's Circle Dance. At the same time that he deflected the blades that were slashing towards him, he also deflected the poisonous arrows that were shot by the Boar Demons towards the devils that were closest to him. Before those devils even had the chance to wield their weapons, they had already died in the hands of their own teammates. The poison that the Boar Demons extracted from the Abyss Fiendish Swamp was also effective on the devils themselves.
Of course, Baiyi's method was not just for defense. While he was blocking the attacks of the enemies, all kinds of magic could be seen whizzing out from his body. Although he could only cast some low-level magic because he needed to maintain his Circle Dance, as long as he could find the weak point of the devils, even the low-level magic could cause great damage to them! In just a few moments, the largest Minotaurs that were attacking Baiyi had fallen one by one. The rest of the devils that were weaker than the Minotaurs were also unable to move forward.
At that moment, the Tiamat's face turned extremely ugly. She did not expect that her opponent would be so terrifying! Putting aside the fact that the body of a sorcerer was fighting against the devils that were good at melee combat, from the beginning till the end, his feet did not even move a single step...
At that moment, she was starting to regret her decision. She regretted that she had agreed to let the humans descend to Isythre so hastily. If the loss of the low-level devils was something that she was happy to see, then the loss of the middle-level devils who were the backbone of the battlefield made her a little anxious. The main point was that such a loss did not help the plan at all. Instead, there was a risk that the plan would collapse because they were exposed in advance.
"All of you, stand down!" The Tiamat said reluctantly. She was ready to take action herself. She did not have the intention to sympathize with her subordinates but she really could not let this guy continue killing.
The devils immediately retreated as if they had been granted amnesty. They did not even bother to look at the corpses of their fallen comrades. They could not wait to crawl back into the crack of the realm. Their arrogance had long disappeared.
That was probably one of the reasons why the Devil looked down on them.
This kind of scene had happened many times in the Voidwalker's memory so Baiyi was not surprised at all. Casually, he raised his left hand and a circle of fiery red formation appeared on his wrist. Then, he snapped his fingers and a huge flame burst out from his feet, burning all the corpses on the ground into ashes.
After cleaning up the battlefield, Baiyi took a few steps forward on the flames. Like a great demon that had descended along with the flames, he forced the whole group of devils to take a few steps back. Only the Tiamat was still stubbornly standing at the same spot.
The Tiamat's proud chest heaved up and down violently for a few times. After she had calmed herself down, she said to Baiyi, "Your strength is indeed very powerful. More powerful than I expected."
"No, no, no," Baiyi raised a finger and shook it, "It's just that you guys are too weak."
"Tell me who your real master is and the real identity of your human friends and I will execute you on the spot. I won't hand you over to the Church anymore!"
"Hehe! How arrogant of you!" The Tiamat grinned. Although her mouth usually looked like a beautiful human girl, obedient and gorgeous, when it was fully opened, the entire corner of her mouth was stretched all the way to her ears, revealing rows of sharp teeth that were hidden underneath, making her look extremely disgusting.
"Stupid mortal! You know nothing about real power!" The Tiamat roared. The mark that represented Thaas on her chest started to burn up and in an instant, she disappeared on the spot.
"Eh?" Baiyi was slightly stunned. Hearing a sharp whistle that pierced through the air, he instinctively erected a wall of earth in front of him and leaped backwards with all his might, tilting his head to the side.
In an instant, the wall that had just been erected shattered into pieces. The Tiamat opened her mouth wide and a tongue that looked like a frog stuck out towards him. At the same time, her right hand that had already turned into a horrifying claw grabbed towards Baiyi's abdomen at lightning speed.
Fortunately, Baiyi had already predicted her attack in advance. His abdomen narrowly dodged the attack and his head was just in time to avoid being entangled by that disgusting tongue.
"How did you become so ugly all of a sudden?" Looking at the Tiamat who was sprawled on the ground like a dog, Baiyi asked coldly. At that moment, she was no longer as beautiful as before. Her hands and feet were no longer as graceful as a human girl's. Instead, they had turned into a pair of giant claws that were gleaming coldly under the fire. Her mouth that was filled with sharp teeth was wide open. That tongue that seemed to have a mind of its own was hanging in the air with a slender green steel needle on it.
"Heh! It's been a long time since I've exercised properly. Especially like this... "Her voice was no longer as sweet as a human girl's voice. Instead, it had become hoarse and harsh. Her dark red eyes looked like they were about to spit out flames as she stared at Baiyi. At the same time, the tentacles on her back suddenly pointed towards him and shot out all kinds of venom, acid mist and a few black lightning bolts.
Once again, Baiyi waved his wand and used a gust of wind to deflect the attack. A few of the acid mist hit the devils that were watching from behind. In an instant, their bodies began to turn black. As they screamed in pain, they were smashed into pieces.
Realizing that her attack did not work, the Tiamat disappeared again and continued to attack Baiyi. Admittedly, her speed was indeed much faster than any of the opponents that Baiyi had met before. Even though he had cast a buff spell on himself, he could only barely dodge her attacks. There was no way that he could find a chance to counterattack at all.
When the two of them brushed past each other again, Baiyi lowered his head and looked at the few shallow scratches that had appeared on his chest armor. Although the scratches were very shallow, they were emitting an ominous black aura. That proved that his speed could no longer keep up with his opponent.
"This is a blow that you can be proud of!" Baiyi said in a low voice. A flame spurted out from his left hand and burned the wound, removing the poison from it. This was the first time that he was really injured ever since he arrived in this world.
