Chapter 752: Undead Demon Lord
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation | Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Hundreds of Light Sea Sovereigns unleashed a wide-ranging indiscriminate attack through skill resonance, causing hundreds of thousands of demons to feel like they were being roasted alive.
Each demon found it unbearable to endure the intense sunlight-like rays, their skin and flesh melting away, revealing pale bones and searing organs. Stripped of their former brutality and ferocity, all that remained in their sunken eyes was infinite terror and fear.
Witnessing this infernal scene, whether it was the players of the King Kong Island Guild, elves, dragons, dragon whales, or even soldiers of the Crown of the Ocean, they were all left speechless.
It was akin to the legendary scene of the Goddess of Light descending to purge the evil races with divine punishment.
Under the radiance, all evil and darkness would be incinerated.
Ji Chen watched this scene with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
Indeed, the units he specifically cultivated through the military talent tree to deal with demons performed even better than expected.
In just a few short minutes, thousands of demons were reduced to ashes. Even the remaining demons, no matter how strong their will to fight, found their bodies uncontrollably retreating under this divine-like radiance.
The demons in the rear suddenly whipped their thorny whips, lashing out heavily at the fleeing soldiers, shouting angrily, “Those who retreat will face military law!”
Some demon soldiers hesitated and chose to turn back, while others, their courage shattered, charged recklessly towards their own lines, heedless of the consequences.
At this moment, Alice’s song rang out once again, controlling some of the fleeing demons. Mixed among the demons trying to flee in terror, the controlled demons wielded their knives against their kin, further exacerbating the chaos.
Seeing this scene, Balzarna was almost furious, but he felt no pity in his heart. He decisively commanded, “Kill mercilessly anyone who attacks our lines!”
With clear orders, the demons in the frontline mercilessly slaughtered the fleeing soldiers before them. If they didn’t act, they would be the ones to die.
For a full thirty minutes, within a radius of one kilometer around the Light Sea Sovereigns, there wasn’t a single demon daring to approach the sea surface, only able to watch helplessly as they occasionally endured incoming artillery fire.
They were truly at their wit’s end.
When the Light Sea Sovereigns’ skill, Etherealization, finally ended, it took a dozen or so demon heroes sacrificing their lives to kill them.
This unexpected wave of assault had at least directly or indirectly annihilated fifty to sixty thousand demons, dealing a severe blow to their morale.
Meanwhile, the Crown of the Ocean only suffered the loss of a few hundred Light Sea Sovereigns.
Unfortunately, it would be challenging to reproduce the same strategy for such impressive results. If they attempted it a few more times, Balzarna’s army would be rendered useless.
The demon army launched another attack, but having witnessed the previous barbecue feast, they completely lost their morale. Each of them cowered in fear, afraid to experience the sensation of being melted.
In desperation, Balzarna could only end today’s assault and command his troops to retreat several dozen miles away for rest and reorganization.
However, just as they halted their retreat, the sky was once again illuminated by streaks of light, and meteor-like spells came crashing down upon them.
“Damn humans!! Damn Lord of Glory! I swear I will tear him limb from limb, burn his soul with hellfire for ten thousand years!!!”
Inside the tent, Balzarna finally snapped. He lost his usual composure and calmness, resorting to all sorts of venomous curses, his face contorted with bitterness and anger!
He, a demon lord above countless others, was actually toyed with by such a lowly human. Even when he competed with countless demons for the position of demon lord thousands of years ago, he had never been in such a pathetic state.
In just a few days, one after another, the commanders he had placed high hopes on were easily crushed, and each attack ended in failure.
He commanded a million-strong demon army, with hundreds of demon heroes!
Yet time and time again, he suffered losses in the face of mere hundreds of thousands of humans, sea creatures, and elves.
No words could express Balzarna’s current emotions. His desire to kill Ji Chen had become so intense that he vowed to slaughter every living being in his territory, leaving none alive!
From the southern direction, a giant bird with five heads flew in, slowly landing on the back of a gigantic half-beast demon. Dozens of demon soldiers jumped off the bird’s back.
With his chin held high, one of the demon officers arrogantly addressed the welcoming demon.
“Take me to see the Dreadlord. We come bearing important information from Undead Demon Lord.”
The demon tasked with greeting them felt infuriated by their disrespectful demeanor towards their own kind. However, recognizing the vital information they brought from the Undead Lord, he could only grit his teeth and escort them to meet Lord Balzarna.
The demons under the command of the Undead Lords saw Balzarna, and their arrogance slightly subsided, but they still looked upon him with disdain.
Demons themselves were a conglomeration of chaos and evil, with slaughter, cruelty, and contempt flowing in their bones and blood. They spare no mercy, not even to their own kind, let alone other races.
The idea of “survival of the fittest” was widely accepted among them. Even the present Five Great Demon Lords rose to their top positions through a mix of plots, assassinations, and schemes, effectively ousting their predecessors.
