Chapter 27: One Sect, Two Supreme Beings, Double Happiness Arrives!
Not far from the sick village, there is a pile of rubble.
A figure dressed in a coarse white dress, with an ethereal air, stood on the boulder, gazing towards the village entrance.
"Oh...it seems someone has already made a move on Sick Village before us."
Xia Wanyin closed her eyes, carefully sensing the other person's aura: "It's Xinghuo, whom I met at the Blackwater River last time."
"I remember he was just a level 4 novice lord, and his only unit was an elite one-star orc."
"There are several two-star elite monsters in this village. With such a huge difference in strength, how dare he set his sights on this place?"
She looked worried and said to the person beside her, "Xiao Guang, keep an eye on things. If anything happens over there, see if you can save him."
Beside him, a light elf archer turned his head, and the elemental-constructed head nodded slightly.
...
...
Meanwhile, at the entrance of the sick village.
A group of plague believers, dressed in black robes and with hunched backs, knelt on the ground, praying incessantly to a mysterious statue.
"Tap tap... tap tap..."
The sound of heavy footsteps approached.
The plague believers turned to look and saw a group of green-skinned orcs with weapons walking towards them.
The lead orc rode a giant gray wolf, wielding a long-handled battle axe, exuding a murderous aura.
In the middle of the procession, a human in a wheelchair carried a lantern, followed by several skeletons.
It's the guy who killed the Dark Vulture a few days ago, and he still dares to come here!
"Ha... kill them!"
The plague priest in the crowd was immediately enraged and waved his staff.
All the plague believers rushed towards them as if they had gone mad!
A thick stench of plague wafted towards them, even causing the soul flames in the pupils of several skeleton archers to flicker.
"Hmph, a bunch of pathetic, weak wretches!"
Bloodhowl glanced disdainfully at the approaching plague cultists and sneered, "Today, let the boss see who is the number one warrior in the territory!"
"Wolf riders, charge!"
Instantly, a burst of red light surged from his body, and his aura increased dramatically!
The dire wolf beneath him was enveloped in a layer of bloody light on its four hooves, transforming into crimson lightning as it charged toward the enemy at breakneck speed!
The distance between the two sides closed rapidly.
One hundred meters.
Fifty meters.
Thirty meters.
Bloodhowl could already imagine himself slaughtering everyone and making a name for himself in front of the lord!
At that moment, he suddenly felt a gust of wind above his head.
Immediately afterwards, a massive green figure descended from the sky like a meteorite!
"boom!!!"
The loud explosion resounded for kilometers around, kicking up dust and debris tens of meters high!
When the smoke and dust cleared, a large crater with a diameter of twenty to thirty meters appeared on the spot.
Hellroar slightly bent his knees, and heat rose from his back.
All around were the severed limbs of the enemy.
At least a dozen plague believers were blasted to pieces by this attack.
The king descended from the sky, his face contorted with rage and ferocity!
Bloodhowl: "???"
"Hellscream, you cheated!" Bloodhowl roared angrily. "Those monsters were mine!"
Hellscream ignored him, activated [Swift Step], and leisurely continued.
He charged into the enemy ranks like a ferocious beast!
Puff! Puff puff!
The double-edged axe slashed out trails of death, accompanied by the sound of flesh being torn apart, and severed limbs flew everywhere.
It seemed that he was about to slaughter the remaining plague believers all by himself.
"Hey! You bastard, don't try to take all the credit!"
Bloodhowl panicked and immediately urged the dire wolf to activate its skill.
—The wolf charges!
A crimson lightning bolt flashed and plunged into the enemy ranks.
A long-handled battle axe, like a scythe reaping lives, used its immense force and momentum to cleave plague priests in two.
Bloodhowl roared furiously, frantically fighting with Hellroar for the remaining kills.
With two elite three-star units, both of which had undergone two or three [Sacrifice Evolutions], dealing with these believers was a one-sided massacre.
Other orcs also joined the battle, carrying iron axes.
Shen Xing pushed the wheelchair, leading the skeleton archers forward steadily, occasionally firing a volley or two of arrows.
This battle was a one-sided affair.
I've been hiding and developing for so many days.
If you can't crush it, then won't you grow white hair?
However, the monsters in the Blighttown are still very strong, especially the Plague Priest.
He raised his bone staff, his body radiating an aura of plague, and chanted an ancient incantation.
"फरईल...उसुन्नरलिखेलर!!!"
In an instant, a black plague hurricane appeared and continued to expand!
With overwhelming force, they advanced towards the orc army.
If they get caught up in it, given the defenses of those ordinary orcs, they'll likely suffer heavy losses.
Just then, a double-edged battle axe flew over like a meteor and hit him instantly!
Then there is no more then.
Faced with Hellscream, who had mastered a completely new skill form, this axe strike, imbued with all his strength, cleaved him in two, instantly killing him!
"As expected of my strongest combat force, Hellscream has the potential to become an emperor."
Shen Xing leaned back leisurely in his wheelchair as he gave his comments.
In contrast, Hellscream's agile movement allowed him to continuously rack up kills.
Bloodhowl was now so angry that his face was flushed red.
Seeing the gap between the two sides widening, they had no choice but to frantically urge their mounts to accelerate, exhausting the dire wolf beneath them to the point of foaming at the mouth.
He panicked, he panicked!
"Roar! I won't lose! Bloodhowl is the strongest!"
Blood Roar roared, his eyes instantly turning blood red, and a surge of blood energy rose up.
Immediately afterwards, the blood energy seemed to be ignited, transforming into a towering crimson flame that enveloped the man and the wolf.
At this moment, his aura surged wildly, and destructive waves swept out like a tidal wave.
[Your territory unit 'Bloodhowl' unleashes its potential during battle, learning the innate ability: Blood Burn!]
[Blood Burn: Ignite the blood throughout the body to gain a huge power boost, increasing strength and speed by 35%, and all attacks have a 30% armor penetration effect.]
Duration: 30 seconds
Cooldown time: 1 hours
(Note: This skill comes at the cost of overdrawing your power. After its duration ends, you will be in a weakened state for 10 to 20 minutes.)
...
Shen Xing: "!!!"
The new talent ability has such an abnormally high enhancement rate.
Could this be the legendary breakthrough before battle?
Wow, this is a privilege usually reserved for exceptional geniuses.
Holy crap, doesn't this mean that Gorehowl also has the potential to become an emperor?
"Excellent! Excellent! Two supreme beings in one family! Double happiness!"
Shen Xing clapped his hands and laughed heartily, feeling very gratified.
At the same time, Bloodhowl, having activated [Burning Blood], has entered a frenzied killing mode!
Leading his dire wolves, he rampaged through the village entrance, each charge leaving behind a trail of severed limbs and short arms.
Even Hellscream felt a bit of pressure, and couldn't help but increase the speed at which he swung his double-edged axe.
One of these two has high damage output, and the other has high damage output.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them had almost wiped out all the plague believers at the entrance of the village.
On the pile of rubble in the distance, Xia Wanyin closed her eyes, sensing the movement coming from not far away, her face showing surprise.
"Spark, that's amazing..."
She murmured, "It's only been a few days, and they've already improved the combat strength of their troops to this extent."
Beside him, the archer of light gazed at the distant battlefield, a solemn expression on his face.
Just then, Xia Wanyin seemed to sense something, and her pale pupils widened slightly.
"What kind of creature... possesses this aura?"
"Oh no, he's in danger!"
...
...
At this moment, on the battlefield of Blighttown, Hellscream and Gorehowl, two future emperors, are still slaughtering.
They specifically targeted the plague priest inside.
As the lord has said, one plague priest is equivalent to ten plague believers.
Upon hearing this, Bloodhowl saw it as an opportunity to surpass Hellscream, and immediately became incredibly energetic.
Shen Xing led four skeleton archers behind him, clearing out any survivors.
The battle was about to end.
Just then, a violent tremor came from the center of the village, and the earth cracked open.
"Rumble..."
A pillar of eerie green fire shot into the sky!
"A bunch of lowly creatures, how dare they disrupt a great sacrificial ceremony!"
The hoarse voice carried a chilling killing intent, as if it came from the depths of hell.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, a dark figure flapped its wings and flew into the air.
With its hunched body, tattered wings, and horns on its head, it looks like a vampire in its transformed state.
But it is shorter and more evil than a vampire.
The Lesser Demon
[Level: 8]
[Potential: Elite ★★★]
[Attributes: Strength 67, Spirit 74, Agility 53, Constitution 54]
[Skills: Hellfireball, Weakening Gaze, Corrosive Claws]
[Talent: Body Burning]
[Bond: Demonic Tide (Not Activated)]
[Note: A low-level demon from hell, but still invincible to low-level life forms.]
...
A level 8, three-star elite monster!
They are practically among the top-tier beings below the second-tier transcendent level, equivalent to the peak of fifth grade in elementary school!
The opponent's strength is indeed worthy of the top-tier reputation; the aura he exudes alone gives people a tremendous sense of pressure!
The skeleton archers behind Shen Xing were already trembling with fear!
"You're courting death!"
The lesser demon flapped its tattered wings, raised its right hand high, and a ghostly green fireball quickly condensed.
An aura of destruction continued to gather, even distorting the surrounding air with its heat.
"Die, you insect... Ah!"
Just as the demon was about to throw the fireball, a large net descended from the sky and crashed down upon it!
The net tightened instantly, and the demon, which was already not flying very high, fell from the sky like a kite with broken wings.
"Hahaha! I got it! I caught it! This guy is mine!"
Bloodhowl roared excitedly, its body engulfed in blood flames as it charged forward.
In his eyes, it was not some terrifying hellish monster, but a tempting piece of fat.
But at that moment, another figure was faster than him.
"call……"
As if a gentle breeze had swept by, a green shadow appeared out of nowhere beside the fallen demon.
He raised the double-edged battle axe high, concentrating all his strength into his arms, his muscles swelling as if inflated!
"Pfft—!"
The axe blade instantly sliced through the net, pierced the skin, and its immense force was poured into the target's body.
With a loud "bang," the powerful inferior demon exploded on the spot.
—Kill!
At that moment, the entire village fell into a brief silence.
Meanwhile, Xia Wanyin, who was in the distance, felt the aura of the inferior demon dissipate, and an incredulous expression appeared on her fair face.
After all, that was an elite three-star monster, and a creature from hell at that.
It's a nightmare for any novice player.
He was instantly killed just like that...
"Thank goodness I was 130% prepared, otherwise I would have been hurt by this suddenly appearing demon."
Shen Xing breathed a sigh of relief, then slowly pushed his wheelchair to the center of the village.
