Chapter 541: Wait a Little Longer! (1/2)
GDK 541: Wait a Little Longer!
Before the great war erupted, War Demon Valley was shrouded in a suffocating atmosphere. Practically every citizen was mustered to fight and defend War Demon Valley.
The Abyss realm was truly a place where everyone was a soldier. Through constant struggle, every high-level abyssal being would certainly be a fighter that had been through military campaigns. Although the offense Venomfang Castle brought over this time wasn’t quite the same as it was before, and everyone in the valley was fearful, with things having developed to this stage, not one of them cowered.
Indeed, as Han Shuo had predicted, after half a day, more and more oddly-shaped abyssal creatures appeared before the stone forest Han Shuo had placed outside War Demon Valley. The forces of Venomfang Castle were numbered in the tens of thousands, with a majority being massive but low-intelligence abyssal creatures.
Those mighty abyssal creatures with humanoid figures accounted for merely one tenth of the army. Their leaders were the race of Triops that Han Shuo had met before. Under their guidance, more and more abyssal creatures assembled outside the tallest city wall of War Demon Valley.
The defensive measures of War Demon Valley remained at a rather primitive stage. The best they had was fences covered with sharp knives, some gigantic bows and arrows on the city wall, as well as boulders scattered all around the Abyss realm.
A Triops wearing pitch-black armour that covered his rather enormous body held a two-meter long trident in his hand, mounted on a warhawk with five python-like tails, majestically hovering in the sky before War Demon Valley. His eyes were cold and ruthless. His body boasted an imposing demeanor.
Behind him was a group of Triops mounted on warhawks who wore the same pitch-black armour. Those Triops were the true trump cards of Venomfang Castle. Each possessed at least the strength of level-three Destroyer.
Beneath them were densely packed abyssal experts with inhuman bodies. Han Shuo easily sensed the source of the six to seven Raksha-grade aura being unreservedly discharged.
“Lord Yeki, why is there a stone forest covering the front of War Demon Valley? In our previous rounds of attacks, this stone forest didn’t exist. Will it be an issue?” asked an abyssal creature whose face was covered in wrinkles and appeared much like a bulldog, gazing at Yeki up above.
At his words, the invaders turned their attention towards the land between the two opposing forces. Hundreds of thousands of stelae had been erected, disorderly dispersed on the center of the battlefield. There were also large, multi-coloured banners, on them painted some kind of monster making threatening gestures. Lush green and deep blue miasma gently lingered around the rock forest, giving it an air of mystery…
“What in the world is that? There are intense element of death in there and it seems to contain the aura of destruction. What sort of nasty tricks is War Demon Valley up to?” a Triops said quizzically with one of its eyes glowing a strange light as bright as a torch, casted onto the stone forest ahead.
“Second brother, with General Zajya here, no matter what tricks War Demon Valley have up their sleeves, they won’t be able to escape their final fate. We have nothing to worry about. All we have to do is act in concert with Lord Zajya and take down War Demon Valley once and for all,” Yeki said with a cold smile after he glanced at the Triops beside him.
“Sure…” The Triops nodded his head and also revealed a confident smile. He conveniently turned to gaze at the the legendary general of the Shadow Warriors, a level three Demon – Zajya.
This man measured over four meters tall. He had bewitching purple-coloured skin and criss-crossed scars from head to toe. His eyes were of the same purple hue and made feverish gazes that one would expect from a lunatic. A kind of intense aura of destruction faintly emanated from his body.
Some of those abyssal creatures beside him would deliberately keep a distance from him. Even though they were all on the same side, they seemed to be most unwilling to go anywhere near him and instinctively feared him.
“It is only once we completely take down War Demon Valley and crush Crosius into pieces that we can return to meet Lord Golander!” Gazing at the broad, towering city wall of War Demon Valley, Zajya slowly said with an ear-piercing voice, “Yeki, you better take this opportunity to finish Crosius once and for all. After taking down War Demon Valley, your Venomfang Castle can then be named Venomfang City. It is only so that the Lord would put you in an important position.”
“Lord general, let me assure you that after this day, Venomfang Castle will be known as Venomfang City. I have operated Venomfang Castle for many years and now is the time take it higher!” Yeki licked the corner of his lips .
“Hmph! The time has not come to be excessively cheerful. You have not adequately completed the matter about the interplanar portal within the territory of your Venomfang Castle. His Lordship will not be so eager to let you off the hook. Taking down War Demon Valley can only be considered as making up for your mistakes. Don’t even think that you are going to escape the Lord’s punishment,” Zajya said after shooting a deadly glance at Yeki.
Yeki’s face suddenly turned rigid. Revealing a trace of fear and a humble expression, he said, “Would Lord General please put in a good word for me before the Demon Lord?
“I will,” Zajya replied indifferently before he continued, “Considering that those ladies with tender bodies you prepared were absolutely delicious to eat, prepare me another thirty!”
