And in the darkness, dozens of scarlet eyes lit up.

The demon seen earlier slowly walked out of the shadows. It was a humanoid creature nearly two meters tall, with sickly grayish-white skin and two twisted horns on its forehead.

"Elves, dwarves, and an unknown race—a strange combination."

The demon's voice was devoid of any emotion, but for some reason, his eyes were fixed on Lord.

Celia had no intention of communicating with him and simply shot an arrow at him, but he dodged it easily.

The demon waved his hand, and dozens of monsters jumped out from the darkness.

Celie instantly released a dazzling halo, turning the first few monsters that rushed towards her into ashes.

Then he raised his hand again, and dense arrows of light poured down like a rainstorm. In response, the demons also cast magic, and a black barrier blocked all the attacks.

This is the terrifying thing about the demons.

They can also learn magic, martial arts and other skills to make themselves stronger.

At the same time, Kraft suddenly attacked from the side. The demon leader dodged in a hurry, but was still hit by the sword.

Bright red blood flowed from its flank, but the injury was not fatal, and only caused the demon some minor damage.

Chapter 27 Run away separately

"Damn it."

Kraft returned to the team with a look of regret on his face.

This demon was too smart. I had originally wanted to take him by surprise and chop him in half under the cover of night, but I didn't expect him to notice me.

The demon covered his injured abdomen, an angry expression appearing on his gray face.

It is said that demons cannot understand human emotions, but they do have emotions of their own. They just cannot understand the tenderness that belongs deep within humans.

The demon suddenly raised his hand and the ground began to shake violently.

The remains of the monsters that had been destroyed by everyone before began to wriggle, and the broken limbs gradually pieced together. They actually began to gather together with the strange-looking monster that swallowed Celia's magic as the main body.

Lord and Celie sensed something was wrong and attacked at the same time.

Two identical beams of light instantly appeared above the demons, except that one of them was smaller.

The demon cast defensive magic, but the black barrier could not completely withstand the attacks of the two and soon shattered.

Seeing this, the opponent directly controlled the monsters around him, using them as shields to block the subsequent explosion attack.

When the smoke cleared, both the demon and the monsters that were constantly being pieced together around him were intact.

Because the two of them killed some more monsters, the remains that appeared on the battlefield actually made the monster a little bigger.

"What is this thing!?" The dwarf Thorm had never seen such a scene before. His pupils suddenly widened and he asked in a trembling voice.

"Dark magic?"

Kraft replied uncertainly.

During his two hundred years of adventure, he heard that there was a clan that was good at using dark magic and had the special ability to resurrect dead creatures.

At first he didn't believe it at all, but now it seems that this so-called resurrection is so blasphemous.

The monster eventually condensed into a huge deformed mass of flesh, and the various monster heads on it were creepy just to look at.

"Eat them, but leave the unknown race behind."

The demon gave the order, and the meat ball rolled over and rushed towards everyone.

For some reason, the demons felt a sense of hunger when they saw Lord.

It was a pure appetite, without any special feeling.

Theoretically, their clan only needs very little food to survive, but this demon has a hunch that eating Lord will make him stronger.

Perhaps this unknown race in front of them was born to be the nourishment, or food, for their clan.

The monster attacked, forcibly disrupting everyone's positions, and everyone was divided into two battlefields.

The dwarves Thorm and Kraft are on the right, while Lord and Celie are on the left.

"Lord!"

Som roared and tried to rush over, but was entangled by the monster.

Kraft kept swinging his sword, but he couldn't break through the increasing number of monsters surrounding him.

"How many monsters does this demon control?"

Kraft was secretly shocked. They had killed at least hundreds of monsters along the way, but the number of monsters surrounding them did not seem to decrease at all.

Upon seeing this, Kraft no longer held back and unleashed all his fighting power. Such overwhelming momentum forced the demons to send most of their monsters to restrain him.

At this moment, all Lord and Celie saw was the demon and the disgusting monster created by the other party.

But Lord did not dare to act rashly, for fear that killing the monster would only increase its strength.

In this case, Lord had no choice but to grab the young master beside him.

Before Celie could react, she felt a tightness around her waist.

Lord put one arm around her waist and condensed a dazzling ball of light with the other.

A blinding white light burst out, and all the monsters, including the demon, instantly covered their eyes, unable to see the direction clearly.

Taking advantage of this gap, Lord picked up Celia and quickly retreated, shouting to Som and the others, "Break out separately! Meet up at Gmir Forest!"

There is a barrier in the Gmir Forest, and monsters cannot enter. As long as everyone escapes there, they will be safe.

Besides, the coordinates of that human tribe have been determined before, so they can regroup there.

Seeing these guys split into two waves and fleeing, the demons hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to chase Lord and the other two. Only a small number of monsters went to chase Som and the others.

"Put me down!"

Being carried on the shoulders, Celie felt her stomach churning, and she almost vomited her dinner.

Lord also knew that the other party was uncomfortable in this position, so he changed his position to a position similar to a princess hug.

"My dear aunt, this is not the same situation as last time in the swamp."

The demons in the swamp did not show up last time, and they did not create such disgusting monsters. Apart from the fact that the demon scale beast was a little more difficult to deal with, it was actually not very dangerous.

But things are different now.

"I can walk by myself!"

Celie still wanted to protest, but it was obvious that Lord would not give her the chance.

However, without Kraft as their guide, the two of them quickly lost their way. Looking at the army of monsters chasing them, Lord temporarily blocked them with a wall of thorns and then put Celie down.

"Let's split up and run!"

Lord vaguely felt that the demon seemed to be more interested in him.

"no!"

Celia refused outright.

If they run separately, if Lord gets into danger, he won't be able to save him at all.

Although there are many monsters in front of him, he is not completely unable to deal with them. He just has to pay some price.

However, the demon behind them did not give the two time to discuss. The wall of thorns was quickly broken through, and the monster opened its huge mouth and spewed out a black breath.

"careful!"

Lord pushed Celia away, but he was blown away more than ten meters by the shock wave of the explosion. His whole body was burning with pain. He opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood before he could say anything.

But he didn't care about that and shouted to Celie who was not far away: "Go!"

Then he challenged the demon: "Come and chase me if you dare!"

Seeing that the delicious food in front of him was actually provoking him, the demon became angry again. He was about to chase it, but the explosion behind him made him stop.

Immediately, the magic power in the elf's body began to surge, and he could clearly see that the magic power emitted by the other party was constantly increasing.

"Huh? You're actually hiding your strength?"

Although the demons were a little surprised, they did not care too much. After all, they had hundreds of monsters and this spliced ​​monster beside them. No matter how strong the opponent was, it was impossible for them to defeat them.

However, just in case, he ordered the monsters around him to attack Celia, and he went alone to chase the fleeing Lord.

Chapter 28: Deathly Counterattack

Lord ran all the way, with the demons chasing him closely.

The good news is that he is the only one there, and the other side seems to have used most of their combat power to deal with Celie.

The bad news is that even if there is only this one demon, Lord is not sure of victory.

At this moment, his body was burning with pain, and every breath was filled with the smell of blood. Just being touched by the aftermath of the explosion made his body turn into a pineapple.

Fortunately, I pushed Celia away in time, otherwise the opponent's defense barrier might not be able to block such a terrifying attack.

He wanted to stop, catch his breath, and rest, but he didn't dare to stop.

As long as she runs farther away, Celie will be safer.

Without the control of this demon, neither the other monsters nor the spliced-together flesh monsters should be able to do anything to Celie.

"Stop, unknown guy, you can't escape." The demon's voice echoed in the darkness, filled with strong desire.

"Your blood smells so good!"

The smell of Lord's blood drifted through the jungle, making the demon even hungrier.

Lord felt that the demon's words were a bit abnormal.

He suddenly remembered that the demons seemed to be cannibals, but there were too few humans in the mythological era, and most demons had not necessarily encountered humans in their lifetime, so naturally there was no such thing as cannibalism.

Now that this demon is chasing him relentlessly, it's probably instinct that's driving him.

In other words, he is greedy for his own body.

Literally, pure appetite.
