Wizard's Journey

Chapter 415 The War to Annihilate the Dark Empire (Part 7)

Boom! Boom! Boom...

Roars echoed endlessly within the Crimson Nest. At this moment, most of those inside the Crimson Nest on the ground of the Annihilation Imperial Capital were nobles who had never truly cultivated the power of the Flame Soul in their lives.

The locust warriors and locust leaders have all been summoned by the Great Fire God and are flying high into the sky to fight a life-or-death battle against the wizard legion from another world.

Everywhere you could hear the desperate, hoarse roars unique to the locust people.

The male locust-men in the Crimson Nest mostly had large bellies and incredibly soft wings. Although they were all quite tall, generally around 1.6 meters, they were just a bunch of useless trash, not much stronger than ordinary humans in the wizarding world.

The female locust people are covered with decorative gems representing flames, which are even heavier than their own bodies. They jingle and clang with the slightest movement, making it easy for demon hunters to find the whereabouts of the locust people.

As for the young locust people, they were regarded as by-products by the demon hunters and dark wizards.

This suggests that such a group seems to exist in humanoid societies everywhere.

The hard work of their ancestors gave their descendants a relatively high social status and huge wealth. However, the descendants ignored the essence of their ancestors' status and instead used their status and wealth to enjoy themselves, thus forming a social parasite called the fallen aristocracy.

The two figures mobilized the natural forces around them, which converged towards them like ribbons, and slowly flew upwards from the hollow middle section of the fiery red nest.

Although the Crimson Nest is tall, the locust people are born with wings, so there are no staircases like those in human wizard towers. Instead, a hollow passageway was designed in the middle level.

These different architectural designs fully reflect the evolutionary characteristics of the two races.

Beneath the mask of truth, Grimm's two-colored eyes coldly scanned the layers of the maze-like crimson nest. A fire bat burned fiercely on the ram-horned skull magic staff. In the eyes of the locust people peeking from the dim corner, this evil and terrifying wizard from another world was like a cold-blooded little devil leader who would devour anyone he chose.

Behind Green is the Armored Demon Hunter Dark Wizard of the Mech Heart.

Two metal plates on his chest emitted a pale white light, seemingly a defensive measure. His boots were constantly gathering lightning power, as if in preparation for a sudden battle that might occur at any moment. Under his metal helmet was a pair of auxiliary glasses, the specific function of which Grimm did not know.

"Um?"

With a slight tremor, Green's eyes turned around at lightning speed, while the Mechheart Armored Demon Hunter Dark Wizard immediately shot out a pale red beam of energy with a "whoosh".

boom!

Amidst the shockwave of the explosion, large amounts of debris scattered, and a small, fiery red global creature was shattered to pieces.

Green turned his head and said, "Make sure you identify the target before attacking. It's just a pet; how are you going to collect blood if you attack like this?"

He sized the witch-hunting wizard up and down a few times, then asked doubtfully, "A newbie?"

"Um."

The witcher nodded, looking at Green with a hint of nervousness.

"Huh? A newbie? Then listen to the instructions of my young master and Eighth Master."

Xiao Ba turned his head and shouted.

Green said in a deep voice, "It's inevitable that a new demon hunter will experience a huge psychological letdown when he's so unlucky as to participate in such a grand expedition. Every demon hunter wizard has gone through that. All you need to do is follow in the footsteps of other demon hunter wizards, observe and learn as much as possible, and protect yourself as much as possible."

In front of this new demon hunter, even Green, a wizard who had only experienced three demon hunting expeditions, seemed like an old-timer.

Of course, in the other party's eyes, the Green First Class Medal of Honor means that this guy may have lived for thousands of years and experienced countless demon-hunting expeditions.

After reprimanding the new demon hunter, Grimm looked toward the wall of the Crimson Nest that the new demon hunter had just attacked.

The attack just now was around 200 degrees Celsius, but the walls are only slightly damaged, and the building looks incredibly sturdy.

Green kept calculating in his mind.

If it's an attack of this magnitude, without finding the Crimson Nest's weak point, it would probably take at least several thousand attempts to break its foundation and completely destroy it.

Boom!

Suddenly, a violent explosion came from above. Green Goat shouted, "There's still resistance! Let's go!"

After saying that, with two "whoosh" sounds, Grimm and the demon hunter wizard shot up and looked toward the maze-like room of the Crimson Nest. A level two locust commander was leading several locust warriors, covering the retreat of dozens of locust nobles.

The area outside the Crimson Nest was teeming with demon hunters, posing a similar danger, but at this moment, these locust nobles couldn't care less about that.

"Go and hunt down those locust-men, and bring back their corpses!"

After Grimm issued orders to the Mechheart Armored Demon Hunter Dark Wizards behind him, he himself joined the battle. The few Locust People who were already struggling against the numerous Demon Hunter Wizards immediately began to crumble.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Seeing that victory was assured, the demon hunters also flew out of the Crimson Nest and chased after the group of fat-bellied locusts that could only fly slowly, and cleanly brought back the corpses.

"Young master, look, one ran away over there."

Xiao Ba pointed to the distant sky and said.

At this moment, the dozen or so demon hunters present glanced at the scene and saw only a young locust-man struggling to escape in a panic. Such scenes were commonplace. At this moment, each of them used the power of nature to support the locust-man's corpse, and none of them had any intention of chasing after the little locust-man.

Standing behind Green, Cretia, with her alluring figure revealing large expanses of snow-white skin, looked over as if she had discovered something unbelievable. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and her expression changed drastically.

"No! Kill him now!"

Cretia screamed in near surprise.

Not only Green, but all the other witch hunters stared at Kredia in astonishment, but none of them took immediate action.

"Huh? It's just a little guy, how come you..."

Xiao Ba asked in surprise, only halfway through the question.

Although Green was equally bewildered, trusting in Kredia's intelligence, he hesitated for a moment, then immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Kill him!"

With that, Green took the lead and charged out with Kreta.

The other witch hunters, after being taken aback, put down the locust-man's corpse and rushed out as well.

In an inconspicuous corner of the war-torn capital of the Dark Annihilation Empire, a scene unfolded where numerous demon-hunting dark wizards were chasing after an insignificant young locust-man.

As the pursuit drew closer, Green glanced at Kreta, who was looking utterly astonished, and wondered why she had changed so drastically.

Her behavior was indeed somewhat strange.

If it weren't for Green issuing the order, the other witch hunters probably wouldn't have paid any attention to her at all.

Woo woo la la...

Suddenly, a legion of over a hundred monsters from the Flame Soul World flew over from afar, and upon spotting Green's demon hunter team, charged forward with bloodshot eyes.

Green's expression changed slightly. Although there were more than ten demon hunters at this time, they were not afraid of these hundred slave monsters at all, but they were held back.

A kilometer away, the green-winged locust-man would occasionally turn his head to look at the group of people, his fearful eyes filled with boundless hatred.

Perhaps just moments ago, in some corner, he witnessed wizards killing his parents and all his relatives, and all he could do was cry in despair and helplessness, covering his mouth tightly to try and keep himself from making a sound.

That heartbreaking despair transformed him, and while the many witch hunters were collecting corpses, he fled into the distance.

Only a bored guy like Xiao Ba noticed him and said something that drew everyone's attention.

It seems that this one careless remark led to a change in fate.

Green looked at Cretia and said in a deep voice, "You'd better be able to explain this to me clearly in a moment."

After speaking, Grimm took a deep breath under the Mask of Truth and suddenly activated his Wizard Shield. The intense fluctuations of the First-Class Honor Medal spread out unrestrainedly in the surroundings, as if it were some kind of summons.

At the same time, centered around Grimm, all the wizards with honor badges seemed to be stimulated, raising their heads in surprise and looking in Grimm's direction.

After thinking for a moment, the demon hunters all flashed and flew towards the direction they had inexplicably sensed.
