The Journey of the Demon Hunter

The blade was very fast, and there was a sound of breaking through the air in the air, and the snow that was raised fell along with the blade.

The place where the sound came was empty.

The demon hunter froze for a moment, his ears seemed to deceive him. The voice was faint, but he did hear something.

But when the same voice sounded again, he turned around abruptly. However, only snow-covered woodland and rocks appeared in front of him. Two panicked rabbits jumped out from behind the rocks, and a few bounced and disappeared in the snow.

Zelin narrowed his eyes slightly.

Something is affecting him, which makes him doubt these red spars. Maybe he should go and tell Kulun about this as soon as possible. If something like this happened near the Holy Ash Temple, considering the ongoing peace talks, even the smallest things should be reported.

The demon hunter walked over. He took out a piece of soft leather from his package, prepared to cut a piece of red magic crystal with an ebony blade, and took it back for the researchers of the Judgment Order to investigate.

In the next moment, the world is spinning.

When Zelin opened his eyes, there was only a buzzing roar in his head, as if all the noise in the world flooded into his mind. He found himself lying on the ground, as if he was hit hard by a wooden stick, half of his body was buried under the snow.

There was a piercing roar everywhere in the sky. He pushed up hard and took a deep breath. The cold air poured into his lungs, which made his dizzy brain awake. It seemed that his elbow had touched something hard. The armor provided him with a lot of protection, but there were still fiery pains in many parts of his body. After taking several deep breaths, he made his blurred vision clear.

He tried to stand up, the Ebony Blade was thrown out during the mutation just now, and now he was lying not far from him. Fortunately, this blade did not poke the Demon Hunter himself in the chaos. He knew the sharpness of the ebony blade very well, and it was impossible for the master-class Demon Hunter armor to block this demon artifact that opened the front.

He walked over in two steps and picked up the weapon. He has two bruises on his body, but they are not important. The demon hunter raised his head and began to judge what had happened just now. When he raised his head, Zelin couldn't help being stunned.

On the peak of Huishuang Mountain, the towering Holy Ash Temple is falling apart in a violent explosion!

The pale green flames almost engulfed the entire mountain. The power of the explosion even flew away the remains of the temple. The ruins that fell like raindrops hit the woodland at the foot of the mountain and the mountainside, splashing in the snow. A few meters of snow, the entire temple was almost completely razed to the ground in the explosion, the flame-wrapped eaves and broken walls rolled down the cliff, but the explosion was not over yet, and the continuous crackling sound continued from the top of the mountain. , The pale green flame, which is obviously not a natural product, dyed a large area of ​​the foothills green.

But this is not the part that really shocked him.

Sky!

The sky is cracked!

At first it was just a crack, and soon the crack expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye. Before long, before the eyes of the demon hunter, the crack in the sky expanded into a huge green vortex, as if a hole appeared in the sky. Yellow-green meteor meteorites were constantly smashing down from the holes in the sky. One of the meteorites hit the woodland near the demon hunter. In the blink of an eye, several trees near the landing site began to blaze.

"Damn it!"

Ze Lin took a sip, and he glanced at the place where the crescent stone was located, which had been buried by fallen trees and snow. Taking a deep breath, the demon hunter quickly rushed towards the place where the Judgment Order camp was located, and the woods behind him were burning in the flames.

The first thousand and seventy-six chapters plan and surrender

"Can I reach the Holy Ash Temple?! Is there any news on the mountain?!"

"No one has been seen coming down from the mountain, and the scouts have not yet come back!"

"Continue to send people to the mountain to investigate, hurry up! Tell Captain Fred who is stationed in the hermit town, and let him take people to the mountain to support!"

The burning stones crossed the sky and hit the open space not far from the Judgment Order camp. The violent vibration even made this slightly dilapidated fortress shake, and the falling dust made the sound of puffing, Kulun After coughing vigorously, standing in front of the gate of the camp, he could clearly see the disaster that occurred on the Holy Ash Temple.

"Commander, Captain Alberta asked me to bring news that we were attacked by demons in the back mountain!"

An injured scout came over with the support of two soldiers. His helmet was knocked off, there was a lot of blood on his forehead, and his pants were torn on the knees, as if he had fallen on the run." There are a lot of them, a steady stream, and we need support!"

"Devil? Damn, where did the demon come from? Is the blood mage summoning the demon? I need a detailed report, I need to know the source of the enemy! They attacked from the back mountain?" Kulun opened his eyes wide and looked at the victim. The sky was stained dark green with the cracks "How many enemies are there in the back mountain?"

"I don't know, sir." The scout shook his head vigorously. "We were surrounded in the blink of an eye, and there were demons everywhere. When the captain asked me to report, the demons were about to occupy the back mountain corridor. We were divided and surrounded. There was no way. Against them, we killed some demons, but the number of demons is increasing."

Another meteorite hit the ground not far from the camp, and the violent shaking almost made people unable to stand firm.

"I see, soldier." Cullen put his hand on the hilt of his waist and said to the wounded scout, "Go and bandage your wounds. We will defeat these demons and their summoners."

The wounded scouts were taken to the temporary hospital in the camp with the help of their colleagues. Many soldiers who were injured in the explosion or fell and were injured were sent to the medical tent in the camp to be bandaged. , But they were lucky people. Some soldiers standing guard near the mountain road were affected by the flames in the first wave of explosions. The soldiers in the camp had no time to rescue them.

Zelin squeezed from the soldiers who had passed by, and he quickly found Kulun who was listening to the report in front of another scout.

"Cullen, what the **** is going on?"

"... Go and contain the people scattered outside, tell everyone who can afford weapons, come to the camp to gather." Cullen was giving orders to the scout. The scout stroked his chest with one hand, turned and ran away from the command post. After giving the order, Cullen looked at Zelin who came over, "You are here, I am still thinking how many helpers this explosion will cost me. You have also seen that the explosion destroyed the Holy Ash Temple, and Cassandra the Seeker is now Take some soldiers to clear a passage to the temple."

"My eyes are not blind yet, but what's the matter?" Zelin looked down at the wounded soldier who was carried past him. "We were attacked?"

"Demon." Cullen narrowed his eyes slightly. "Lelianna is still directing her agents to investigate the source of the devil, but we must first find a way to stop this."

Demon is a collective term for monsters living in the shadow world in Saidas. There are not only evil demons in the spiritual world, there are also good spirits, or neutral creatures, and even the golden city of God’s residence is in the shadow world. There is a barrier called the shadow barrier between the shadow world and the world, which prevents demons and spirits from entering the world freely, and people in the world cannot enter the shadow world in the flesh, but through magic rituals, the creatures in the world can be in the form of souls. When entering the shadow world, the demons of the shadow world can enter the real world directly or in a possessed state. At that time, the Andros Church established the ring of law to supervise the wizard, precisely because the relationship between the wizard and the shadow world is too close, and it will be turned into abomination by the demon without knowing it.

But the number of demons in front of them is definitely not the result of one or two wizards being possessed by demons.

"Do you think there was an attack by a blood mage?"

"Ordinary blood magic cannot cause such a result." Cullen raised his finger to the sky. The whirlpool in the sky is like an open blood basin, expanding and preparing to swallow the earth in one bite. "In any case, we must Save people first. The explosion came from the Holy Ash Temple. If we can find the survivors, we will know what happened inside."

"No survivors have appeared yet?" Zelin asked. Lavilan, Pope Justinia V, and many others are in it. Thinking of how many people he knew this explosion might have killed, the good people in this world, the demon hunter couldn't help sighing, "No one?"

Cullen shook his head, "All we see now are corpses."

Another meteorite fell. This time I almost hit the outer wall of the Judgment Order camp. The shock wave caused the soldiers on the outer wall guard tower to scream and fall down. Some wandering demons were hitting the camp, and the archers were standing on the outer wall. And on the stone bridge outside the camp, shooting at the demons and demons approaching the camp.

"Cullen!" At the gate of the camp, with the sound of iron boots stepping on the stone road, Cassandra hurried over.

"Seeker." Cullen looked at Cassandra who came by.

"How many soldiers do you have? We are going to advance to the mountain." Cassandra walked to the battle platform and drew a straight line on the map with her fingers. "My subordinates cleared away the ruins and gravel piled up on the mountain. Yes, but there are too many demons on the mountain road, so the soldiers begin to march. We must rescue the Pope!"

"We are surrounded by enemies, seekers." Kulun shook his head. "We shouldn't act rashly. We don't even know where the enemy is. Who is it? Our numbers are not dominant. They will annihilate us in one fell swoop. We need a plan. ."

"Our plan is to be indifferent while looking at the temple and the people in need of rescue?" Cassandra raised her arm with iron gloves, walked a few steps forward, and made a planning gesture. "We It is possible to retake the temple, which is the highest peak of Huishuang Mountain, which can protect the Pope and is easy to defend and difficult to attack."

"Do you really think that there are still survivors in that temple? His Majesty the Pope can still live under such an explosion?" Varrick walked out of the camp with Bianca on his back, and he had to rush to Zelin one step earlier than Zelin. Camp. This time, there was no joking and relaxed expression on the dwarf's face. Instead, it was extremely serious, like a stone.

"What are you talking about, dwarf?!"

"You know this better than any of us, Cassandra! Your sense of responsibility and mood make you no longer calm!" Varick confronted the Seeker tit-for-tat, without the slightest retreat, just like the usual glib tongue. Bi is simply different. "None of us knows what is waiting for us in the temple, ambush? A trap? Another army of demons controlled by the blood mages? If this army in the hands of Kulun is in the holy ash The temple is annihilated, who can stop these hordes of demons from breaking out of the Frost Mountain Range?!"

Cassandra and Varick stood in a stalemate for a few seconds. Not long after, the Seeker took a deep breath, clutching her forehead, as if to convince herself that Pope Justinia V might have been killed in this explosion. .

"Well, let's discuss a response plan."

Soon after Cassandra the Seeker appeared, the nightingale nun Leliana also came to the camp of the Judgment Order.

Fortunately, the spy master did not attend this morning's peace meeting, but instead listened to the report from the tavern proprietress Frieza in hermit town. If the spy leader in charge of the agents also died in this unknown explosion, the Tribunal would lose a large assistant.

"This is my plan. Compared with sending a large number of soldiers to attack the devil, a small team of elite agents can complete the task at the least cost."

As the nightingale nun who often accompanies the Pope, Lelianna quickly came up with a feasible plan.

"Cullen, you command the soldiers of the Judgment Order to attack the enemies wandering outside the camp and at the foot of the mountain, attracting the attention of the devil. And my agent walks a small path and enters the location of the meeting room of the Holy Ash Temple." Leliana The fingers wrapped in leather gloves drew a circle on the map and clicked "They will search for traces of survivors. Even if there are a group of demons in the ruins of the Holy Ash Temple, a few well-trained scouts can avoid them. Attention. While the number of demons is still low, now is the time."

Against these demons, the only good news is that these shadow world demons will not invade in an army situation. They are different from the dry tide formed by the dark descendants. These demons are the incarnations of extreme negative emotions, angry demons and jealous demons. , Succubus, dread demons, and more strange and powerful demons. But even so, when a large number of demons flood through the shadow barrier and enter the world, it is also a disaster that cannot be underestimated.
