The battle was still going on!
Even with its powerful recovery ability, the Burning Flame Demon's injuries were mostly healed. However, because of the battle and the consumption of blood essence, its strength was only 60% of its peak. At this time, it was relatively dangerous. If it was a normal battle, an expert like the Watcher would basically be the final boss. Killing the Watcher meant that the battle was coming to an end.
However, this was a high-level battle. There were more than a million creatures participating in the battle on the huge battlefield. Among these millions of creatures, there was definitely more than one master like the Guardian. Therefore, even the Burning Flame Demon had to admit that if it was slightly careless, its soul would return to the underworld. Just as the Guardian said before, it would start over as a worm.
At the most critical moment, the Burning Flame Demon was almost beaten into a state of near-death by the Guardian. Fortunately, it managed to survive.
With the cooperation of the Lie Demons, if it was not a master like the Guardian, no, even if it was a master like before, as long as the Lie Demons were by its side, there would not be much of a problem. After all, in such a dangerous battle just now, the Lie Demons did not transform. Instead, it used its regular form to kill the Guardian!
In addition, there were already four companions on the battlefield. Erwin, Saruman, itself, and the Lie Demons!
The Burning Flame Demon looked around. It saw that Erwin was still shooting arrows, killing one Half-Orc after another. Saruman was on the side, surrounded by countless undead creatures. As a mage, it always put safety first. At this time, it kept summoning dead bodies to fight. As a result, there were three layers inside and three layers outside. Saruman had already summoned an undead army no less than a thousand people!
With the Lie Demons' help, the Burning Flame Demon had more time to observe its surroundings. At this time, it realized that its surroundings had turned blood red. Countless corpses had fallen to the ground. The most eye-catching were two places. One was the Gnoll army with tacit cooperation, and the other was a barbarian with a giant hammer!
From the frozen northern wilderness to the hellish southern rainforest, there were brave and powerful warriors. Civilized people called them barbarians or berserkers, thinking that they represented destruction, evil, and cruelty. However, these "barbarians" had already proven their courage and perseverance to their allies. They were shrewd, persevering, and merciless, not allowing anyone to look down on them.
The best way for a barbarian to gain a foothold in a civilized society was to take part in adventures. They didn't like boring guard work or mundane errands. Barbarians were used to the dangers and uncertainties of adventuring, and they were not afraid of hard work. Barbarians also liked to participate in combat missions. They hated unnatural things, including undead creatures, demons, and devils.
Barbarians are excellent fighters. Ordinary warriors relied on good training, but barbarians had powerful and violent strength. When they entered a berserk state, they would become even more powerful and invincible. They would be able to attack their opponents and withstand attacks. After going berserk, they would become very tired, so the number of times a Barbarian could go berserk was limited, but it was enough. Barbarians were at home in the wilderness and could run at high speeds.
Barbarians couldn't be from the Order Faction. They might have a sense of honor, but their hearts were wild and unruly. This wildness was the source of their strength and it was incompatible with the Order Faction. The barbarians of the Chaos Faction were sometimes very creative and expressive, but sometimes they were the source of destruction that lacked thought.
Barbarians came from uncivilized areas or barbarian tribes at the edge of civilization. The reason why barbarian adventurers came to town could be because of the temptation of wealth, or because they were captured as slaves from their hometown and escaped. They could also be mercenaries, or because their hometown was invaded and they left in exile. Barbarians had no relations with each other, unless they came from the same tribe or area. In reality, they didn't think of themselves as barbarians, but as fighters.
Because they were in an uncivilized and remote area, barbarians had ugly faces. Some scholars even thought that they had the blood of beastmen, a branch of half-beastmen.
Barbarians usually fought for their masters as mercenaries. The strength of the barbarian in front of them made the Burning Flame Demon look askance. With just a glance, it could determine that the opponent was an expert not weaker than the Guardian!
"Damn it!"
Even the Burning Flame Devil couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of disdain because it finally understood the determination of the God of Massacre because these experts were rarely seen!
Other than that, the Burning Flame Demon had to pay attention to … the giant hammer in the opponent's hand!
A very powerful weapon!
A very, very powerful weapon!
The Burning Flame Demon didn't even need to use its perception to feel the power contained in the giant black hammer!
Although it didn't want to admit it, the Burning Flame Demon knew that the giant hammer was a true substandard artifact!
Substandard artifacts were definitely weapons that creatures below the god level yearned for the most because it meant that they could obtain even more terrifying destructive power. The Burning Flame Demon had used a substandard artifact before, so it could feel the power flowing within it!
The war had become more and more troublesome!
The barbarian was undoubtedly an epic expert, and he had a substandard artifact in his hand. Compared to his companions, he didn't wear any heavy armor. Instead, his upper body was bare, and his lower body was only covered by a few pieces of cloth.
— Fast movement!
It was hard to imagine that such a tall and sturdy body with a giant hammer could have such terrifying speed. Barbarians believed that the flesh was the strongest defense. As for armor, it was just a useless shackle that limited speed!
Casualties appeared in the Dark Elven Army. For the Underworld Army, the Dark Elven Army was the last line of defense. As a native force, they would first use other creatures as cannon fodder. But now, the barbarians had broken through the first three lines of defense and killed their way into the enemy's hinterland!
Death descended!
How could the Dark Elves, who were originally weak in close combat, be a match for a barbarian with a substandard artifact?
The demon-like speed coupled with the destructive power of the giant hammer caused the dark elves to fall to the ground one by one. In the few minutes the Burning Flame Demon had been watching, several hundred dark elves had already been slaughtered!
What a terrifying opponent!
The Burning Flame Demon had to admit that if it hadn't faced the Guardian but the barbarian in front of it, it might not have been able to wait for the Lie Demons to save it before becoming a corpse.
"Boom!"
A loud sound pulled the Burning Flame Demon back from its thoughts. It saw a huge energy beam that pierced through the heavens and earth hit the barbarian's body. That beam of light was so dazzling that it was exceptionally eye-catching in this pitch-black Underworld!
A tall figure appeared above the beam of light. She was wearing a black priest's robe. Her long black hair fell to her feet, and her scarlet eyes were as beautiful as gems. It was as if there were hidden whirlpools on the surface of the sea, making it hard to look away!
Although it was as Erwin had said, for some unknown reason, the experts of the past had all disappeared recently, the Underdark Region was Lorci's headquarters. As a god who was good at strange things, it was impossible for her to not have a trump card.
And now, this Dark Elf who had suddenly appeared and controlled the barbarian was undoubtedly one of Lorci's trump cards!
