929 Demonic Stampede Part 2 (1/2)

Badge in Azure Deathstate 50910K 2022-07-23

Nailisi sprinted to the front. She was not completely disconnected from her demon army. She was wearing her magic war boots and all 8,000 demons were at the same pace as her. If she ran fast, so did the demons.

This was one of the techniques that devils used to command their armies, Demonic Stampede.

All the demons were connected as one. Since Nailisi's devil-form was close to perfection, she was able to utilize some devil techniques. A real devil would be able to lead countless demons as if they were one entity. When they all attacked together at once, even giant dragons had to get out of the way.

Demons had also fallen, just like humans, but their techniques were passed down naturally through lineages and had never disappeared. As the power of the Myers Mainland gradually recovered, the demons would benefit as well. They would be able to unleash even more techniques of higher levels. The techniques had always been in their bloodlines.

The demons charged into the campsite. As it was the rear of the campsite, there were many defensive facilities. The Sikeqinyans did not expect to use them against demons. Five yard tall demons were able to cover a lot more distance than humans with every leap.

No one was able to stop Nailisi. As she wielded her long lance, the power of a devil was not something that ordinary warriors could withstand. Nailisi was just like a golden grand swordmaster who had yet to learn how to unleash sword aura. Based on power alone, even a golden grand swordmaster might not be as powerful as Nailisi.

Behind the 8,000 demons were 2,000 human magic heavy-armored soldiers. The soldiers did not join in the battle. Instead, they joined the auxiliary soldiers in bringing up the rear for the demons. Once they entered the campsite, it would be the demon armies that would defend the rear.

Nailisi never really thought of this destroying the campsite, which contained an army of 200,000 soldiers. The entire camp stretched across tens of miles and she only wanted to pass through it, contrary to what Aini wanted.

She was holding her long lance in her right hand and instead of her giant shield, she was holding her blood soul tower in her left hand. The demon army began their slaughter while Nailisi was absorbing the souls hungrily. She might not be doing it as well as a Holy Master, but her blood soul tower would be able to repair broken souls, so it did not matter if she was too violent or aggressive.

The equipment owned by Sikeqinyan soldiers and mercenaries were of decent quality. When the demon army finally slowed down their advance, the amount of arrows from both sides began to increase. That was when the demons spread out and charged towards both flanks while the magic heavy-armored soldiers filled up the gaps in the middle with the auxiliary soldiers.

Nailisi monitored the rhythm of the attack carefully. It might seem as if their attack has slowed down, but that was because they had been traveling in arcs instead of a straight line. That prevented the archers on both flanks from being able to aim at their enemies accurately.

Nailisi was also closely monitoring the casualties. The enemy's sorcerer had yet to appear, but that was when Aini suddenly launched an attack. The gate on the north side opened and countless spirit soldiers charged out and attacked the Sikeqinyan camp directly.

As the number of spirit soldiers grew, even the Holy Masters at the rear of the campsite began to head to the front to help out. No sorcerer would be preoccupied with the demon army when there were so many spirits, more than 100,000, attacking from the front. If the sorcerer did not stop the attack from the front, the Sikeqinyan army would be doomed.

Nailisi was not concerned about her own safety at all. Most of her techniques were more or less at their highest levels. With her Sword of Rules in hand, she did not care even if she encountered a grade-9 sorcerer. Her devil-form would give her gigantic wings, which would allow her to fly as fast as a sorcerer.

Nailisi might not be able to unleash the full power of the Sword of Rules, but the sword itself was so sharp that even a grade-9 magic shield would not be its match.

The rear of the campsite was echoing with thundering footsteps. The demonic stampede had forced the ground to start shaking so violently that the Sikeqinyan soldiers in the near vicinity were unable to remain stable.

At that moment, the auxiliary soldiers of the temple army began to unleash their powers. They could very well be the auxiliary soldiers with the best equipment on the entire Mainland. All of them wore exquisite armor that possessed magic defense abilities. They were armed with magic long lances that were capable of penetrating heavy armors, and no other heavy baggage. They were like the guards of the magic heavy-armored soldiers.

Dong, dong, dong…

Wherever the demon army passed through, the entire camp was almost completely flattened, the barracks were destroyed, and the arrow towers were overthrown. That was when the main army realized that the attack on the rear of their camp was not just a distraction. It was meant to be fatal.

The armies on both flanks, that were meant to defend against the army from Lonestar City, had no choice but to attack. One of them sent help to the front of the camp while the other charged straight at the demon army.

When Nailisi saw an army of 10,000 approach, she could not help but laugh. A grand swordmaster had finally appeared, but she did not know if it was a black metal or silver grand swordmaster. If it was a silver grand swordmaster, they might still exchange a few blows, but if it was a black metal grand swordmaster, Nailisi would kill them with a single blow.

She had been concealing her power by attacking the big equipment while letting her army battle with the enemy. After such a long wait, a grand swordmaster accompanied by a sorcerer had finally appeared. Nailisi was extremely excited.

The sorcerer was only grade-7!

If it was a grade-8 sorcerer, Nailisi would still have been worried about getting hurt, and if it was a grade-9 sorcerer, she would have had to turn into her imp-form and used Grey Memory. If she battled a grade-9 sorcerer in devil-form, she would probably be severely injured.

The incoming army might possess excellent equipment, but without anyone powerful leading them, Nailisi was not worried about them at all.
