Chapter 433 Orlefen the Giant Elephant Warrior

"Let them go back to be megaphones." Li Wei turned around, reverting to his nonchalant demeanor, as if he hadn't just made that murderous declaration. "Let the demon bastards in the city know that their good days are over. Fear, sometimes, is more lethal than swords. A bunch of terrified demons are easier to kill."

"And by the way, let me also promote my reputation, Your Excellency."

Ansuna looked incredulous.

This dragon knight is no pushover; judging by his past behavior, those two demons would probably be beheaded by now.

“Ahem, actually killing them like this wouldn’t do any good. It would be better to have these two demons deliver the gifts I’ve prepared,” Li Wei said.

No one knew what was hidden in that box, but Li Wei knew it contained a large amount of holy light that he had stored up in his spare time.

Originally, he just wanted to casually use the holy light in his body as a walk or exercise, but then he thought that would be too wasteful, so he inexplicably thought that he might as well condense the holy light in his body into a ball of light and throw it into the box.

And surprisingly, it worked!

After a series of studies, Li Wei discovered that these seemingly insignificant orbs of light actually possessed world-destroying power. However, the holy light attribute was very gentle and stable, which is why no explosion occurred directly.

However, with his intervention, the situation would be very different.

Li Wei was now eagerly anticipating the surprised expressions on the demons' faces when they opened the box, hoping that the two escaped demons would live up to his expectations and reach the demons' stronghold.

He looked around at everyone and began to get serious: "But now, our goal is to rescue General Tokai."

"If we encounter any surviving residents in Wirtz along the way, we can rescue them as well."

Even when the two countries were at war, Li Wei always adhered to the bottom line of not affecting civilians.

“Understood!” Ansuna nodded immediately.

The entire group changed direction and began to move again.

This time, the magic swordsmen led the way, the aura knights guarded the flanks, and a dozen or so barbarians roamed around providing support.

These demons are indeed stronger than ordinary people, but their weaknesses are also obvious. Almost none of them have decent equipment. Some demons are even wearing helmets that they just took from soldiers of the Persian Gulf Empire. As for armor and boots, they are nowhere to be found.

It's not hard to guess; it was most likely snatched away by other demons.

The green-skinned barbarians roared with deafening battle cries. Like hungry beasts, they brandished their massive battle axes and charged headlong toward the direction where the demons had appeared. Their heavy footsteps pounded on the sticky blood and mud, producing a dull "plop" sound.

Li Wei was surrounded by holy light, which dispelled the thick fog dozens of meters ahead, illuminating the way for the group and also blessing everyone with divine light and magic. He followed closely behind the barbarians with steady steps.

Sersne followed Levi lazily, her golden vertical pupils scanning the restless shadows deep in the fog with a hint of disdain: "Tsk, a bunch of small fry, not even worth a second of this queen's attention."

The Black Dragon Queen didn't even undo her transformation spell; she merely used a human body to cast the magic, which even ordinary demons couldn't withstand.

Swain, like the most loyal iron tower, held the holy sword and followed half a step behind Li Wei. His metallic skin gleamed with a cold, hard luster under the holy light, ready to transform into the strongest shield at any moment.

The army was like a red-hot dagger, piercing the dark body of Wirtz.

Along the way, sporadic ghouls or low-level demons roared and pounced out from the ruins and alleys on both sides, trying to intercept them.

But what awaited them was the barbarians' raging, unreasonable giant axes!

Zart roared and swept his axe horizontally, the bloody blade cleaving a swarm of ghouls in two, their blood and entrails splattering all over the ground.

Another barbarian swung his battle axe in a wide arc, smashing it down like a hammer blow. The massive red warhammer, solidified with blood energy, smashed a group of inferior demons who were trying to ambush from behind, head and shoulder into their chests.

The barbarians didn't need any fancy moves; their sheer brute force crushed everything in their path, creating an unstoppable torrent of steel!

Those low-level demons and ghouls were like paper in front of them, easily crushed.

Occasionally, Soul Eaters lurking in the shadows would attempt to launch mental attacks or sneak attacks, but the divine spells Li Wei cast on these creatures not only greatly enhanced their physical abilities but also created an invisible elemental barrier that kept all mental interference at bay.

This made Ansu-na and Master Faen, two pure magicians, a little embarrassed, and they also began chanting spells to relieve the pressure.

The troops advanced at an extremely fast pace, encountering almost no significant resistance.

"Holy crap, you guys are amazing! How did you do that?" With a spare moment, one of the friendly magic swordsmen approached the barbarians, unable to hide the envy on his face.

Because they had mastered elemental power, their arrogance was obvious, but they still admired these unconventional warriors of the High Cliff Fortress.

"Eat more, sleep more, and exercise less." Zha Manzi said with a simple and honest look, and even showed off his biceps: "As long as you get as fat as me, you can become as strong as me."

"Trying to fool the undead." The magic swordsman looked unconvinced. If he really did that, wouldn't he become a fat pig and wouldn't even be able to swing his sword?

Seeing that he had failed to win over the other person, Zate looked disappointed, turned around and pretended to be aloof, ignoring the other person completely.

Because it has never liked talking to intelligent people.

This stunned the magic swordsman. After realizing what he had just said, he thought to himself that the people of High Cliff Fortress, who seemed honest and simple, were all incredibly cunning.

Soon, they arrived at the West District that the devil had mentioned.

"Hiss~ Is that really our destination?" The magic swordsmen were filled with shock.

Due to the presence of black mist, things become somewhat blurry and indistinct at greater distances.

Even so, they could easily see a giant roaring and charging wildly in all directions from within the black mist.

Even so, they were completely helpless against the countless demons lurking in the black mist, layer upon layer.

Everyone finally understood why they had been feeling a tremor under their feet – it was caused by this giant who was a full 28 meters tall.

The opponent's massive body, as large as a mountain range, could cause an earthquake with every move it made.

As they drew closer, the giant's appearance came into everyone's view.

It was a giant covered in a dark gold metallic luster, its 28-meter height exuding an oppressive aura like a moving mountain.

Its face was sculpted with an unusually archaic simplicity—its eyes resembled deep pools formed from solidified meteorite iron, its brow bones rose like rugged mountain rocks, its nose was a thick elephant trunk, and its lips were pressed into a cold, hard straight line. Every piece of its metallic texture radiated a magical, flowing light, and its joints were covered in a bluish-green patina, yet when it stepped, it emitted a deep, grinding sound, as if a heart forged from elemental cores and alchemy was beating within its chest.

"It's the Jai'eolfen giant elephant warrior from the Holy Sith Kingdom!" Ansuna exclaimed.

This creation represents the pinnacle of Sith alchemy; every piece of steel embodies unparalleled skill.

The core mechanism that drives such a colossal creature is truly awe-inspiring.

Countless demons are rushing towards this place from the outside, their density almost reaching the point where there is no room for a foot.

This giant elephant warrior was clearly not slaughtering demons aimlessly. Behind it was a camp, from which shouts of battle could be heard. If it weren't for the fact that the enemy was bearing nearly 90% of the pressure at the main entrance of the camp, this camp, which looked like it was in the midst of a tsunami, would have been overturned long ago.

"Damn it, take down that building for me right now."

As soon as he finished speaking, the magic swordsmen, aura knights, and barbarians swiftly chopped all the demons in the four- or five-story building into mincemeat.

The lord stood on the top floor, looking out over the distant camp. He then fired a beam of holy light at the camp, which exploded in the air above the camp, instantly illuminating the entire camp as if it were daytime.

"Old Tor, are you still alive, you son of a bitch?" Li Wei shouted.

You see, he had secretly finalized a large order for magic crystal ore with this guy beforehand. If the guy died here, the order would be ruined.

"If you don't come soon, I can't guarantee anything!"

"Come in!"

So the lord gave the order, and the barbarians led the way, while the magic swordsmen flanked them, and they began to surge forward like a sharp knife piercing a watermelon.

Black iron smashes red iron, blood, flesh, and severed limbs fly everywhere.

A cold-eyed six-armed serpent warrior tried to step forward to stop them, but with just a glance from the lord, the legendary warrior Swain jumped out of the formation and dealt with these tough guys one by one.

The six-armed serpent warrior was an old acquaintance; he had witnessed the warrior's bravery back at the Bone Fortress.

In a one-on-one fight, even if the Demon Swordsman could defeat him, it wouldn't be easy.

However, compared to legendary powerhouses, they were no different from ants. Swain killed hundreds of them with just one swing of his blood blade.

Swain appears weak only when compared to the lord.

Seeing that the newcomers were not to be trifled with, the demons made way for them, and the entire scouting party whirled into the camp.

With just a glance, the lord breathed a sigh of relief, but his expression also turned grave.

Tokai once led over 100,000 elite Sith soldiers and hundreds of alchemists, but now only 30,000 to 40,000 defeated soldiers remain.

If it weren't for the fact that the demons were unwilling to negotiate and that they were trapped here with nowhere to go, these soldiers would probably have collapsed and fled long ago.

The reason for the relief was that veteran Tokai seemed to be in good condition, at least not dying anytime soon, and their trade wouldn't fall through.

If possible, the lord would not want to easily change partners, after all, the two are comrades who fought together and have a certain degree of friendship.

Tokai was wearing a suit of plate armor covered in blood and flesh. The stench was so strong that it seemed to assault your brain as soon as you got close. His weathered face was full of exhaustion, and it was clear that he hadn't slept in a long time, but at least he was now a little happier.

"It's fortunate that Your Excellency Li Wei has come to our aid in person," Tokai said, while ordering the soldiers to continue guarding the camp.

With a wave of his hand, Li Wei dispatched the barbarians, magic swordsmen, and aura knights, while having Swain keep an eye on things from the sidelines.

With the addition of fresh troops, the remnants of the Sith army were relieved of much of the pressure and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Li Wei, I would like to know how many days have passed in the outside world?" Tokai sat down in a house, took a roasted potato from the stove, scraped off only the blackened part, and began to eat it in large bites, clearly starving.

It's obvious, with so many demons out there, where would they find the time to have a proper meal?

"About five or six days," Li Wei said.

Looking up at Wirtzli, all that could be seen was an endless expanse of black fog. Day and night were indistinguishable here, and without a timekeeping device, it was difficult to tell how many days had passed.

"Just as I expected, if you hadn't come soon, we wouldn't have been able to hold on much longer," Tokai said with a sigh.

After he dealt with that succubus bitch, he wanted to lead his men out of the city, but a black mist suddenly enveloped the entire city of Wirtz. When they reached the outside of the city, they headed directly out of the black mist, but no matter how long they walked, they would always turn back.

Realizing they were trapped in Wirtz, Tokai decisively led his soldiers to hold the camp, where they have held out until today.

"What should we do now?" the old man asked.

"Let's get you out of here first," Li Wei said, glancing around at the Persian Gulf people who looked both uneasy and excited. "Are these residents of Wirtz?"

“That’s right. I’m afraid this is the only population left in the entire city of Wirtz. At the time, we thought that every extra person would be a contribution, so we rescued everyone nearby. We couldn’t help those further away.” Tokai didn’t seem particularly sentimental.

To be honest, if he hadn't thought that these residents could help them defend some gaps, he wouldn't have specifically led people to rescue them.

This is not cold-bloodedness, but as a general, he has to be responsible for his soldiers and prioritize their interests.

"Forget it, just have them follow you around and go out with you later." Seeing the hopeful eyes of the commoners, the lord said this directly.

Immediately, the old man was overcome with joy and wept tears of kindness.

"Zart, you little rascal, do you still know the way we came? Take your men and charge straight out for me. Swain, you take care of those tough guys, the rest of you take care of the flanks." The lord quickly gave the orders.

Their arrival has certainly attracted the attention of the demons. The longer they stay here, the easier it is for them to get trapped. They must leave before these demons form an unstoppable torrent.

Only after the residents of Tokai and Wirtz are sent away can the lord deal with these demons without any distractions.

"Li Wei, be very careful of those Balrogs among the demons. These guys are high-ranking generals in the demon realm, and several of them are legendary..."
