Chapter 391 Chaotic Warfare in the Fortress (2/2)

Gelk contended with Gillian, at the same time forcing out a solution. From the current situation, the Demon General had no choice but to retreat. Most of his incapable subordinates were dead and those foolish Barbarians were totally useless. Those people attacking the Fortress were too well prepared, if not they wouldn't have invaded the Fortress so easily. No matter what, his momentum was gone and he had to retreat.

But on the contrary, Gelk had no intentions of leaving as he had spent so much time gathering this many helper to carve a passageway ritual here. The nearby Barbarians were all recruited by him and had he backed off, the next time — he could only take actions internally in the Munn Kingdom.

However, the demons were very clear whose territory the Munn Kingdom belonged to. If this was within the borders of Country of Light, the situation would still be manageable as those foolish humans wantonly expulsed the Angels and Creator Dragon and also, many of his demon peers had dived in and lived well within. However, it's impossible to take actions within the Munn Kingdom as that's the territory of the Archangel. No matter how, if his whereabouts were exposed, only death awaited him.

”Huhuhu…”

Staring at the Demon General, Gillian leisurely smiled and hovered in the air near him. She sensitively detected the hesitation of the Demon General and that was enough. Although Gillian wasn't much powerful than this Demon General of at least level 45, luckily as a demon, his expertise was on flame attacks. As a Fire Elemental Lord, although Gillian's strength was sealed, her highest commanding rights of flames were still present. This was why Gillian could manipulate Gelk's flames from the start which frightened the Demon General. If they were to pick a fight, Gelk would only need a split second to realize Gillian's true strength.

This was why Gillian couldn't engage in any attacks. Although she detected Gelk's hesitation, her current strength wasn't enough to make the first move. However, this Fire Elemental Lord was always full of ideas. She was aware of demons' characteristics which were always being careful and letting their imaginations run wild. From this, she forced the Demon General to fear herself by feigning profound and it seemed to work out pretty effectively.

But…

At this moment, Gillian suddenly realized the expression of this Demon General abruptly sunk.

Gloom Shadow is dead?!

After Rhode killed the Gloom Shadow, the sharp spirit undulations immediately triggered Gelk's soul. Not only that, from the message that his confidant left for himself, Gelk shockingly discovered that these intruders actually attempted to destroy his passageway ritual!

”Dream on!”

A pitch-black mist was released from Gelk's body and he flung his arms forward to shroud the mist immediately on Gillian. Shortly after, the Demon General dived downwards to the Fortress while brandishing both arms and chanting. After completing his chant, the Demon General pointed his finger forward and a beam of blue radiance projected from his fingertip and onto the Fortress.

”Not good!”

Gillian was taken aback. As the black mist arrived, Gillian could sense the icy-cold and powers of death. Without much choices, Gillian could only retreat. The maiden shouted lightly and flung both hands frontwards. Soon, a few raging tornados of flames rose from the Fortress and guarded her against the black mist. Without much hesitations, Gillian darted down and followed Gelk closely.

However, halfway through, a trace of strangeness flashed in Gillian's eyes. Like a gymnast, the maiden did a backflip to draw a distance away from Gelk.

And at that moment, a brilliant column of flames tore through the Fortress and towards the skies. This poor Demon General unluckily darted above the impact and in a blink of an eye, he was devoured by the flames entirely. However, Gillian had no intentions of stopping as she observed the column of flames soared into the skies. The maiden smiled slightly and swayed her index finger.

Along with this motion, the soaring column of flames abruptly took a 90 degrees turn like a huge python flapping downwards. After circling in the air once, it heavily landed on the ground. At that moment, a shrill scream sounded within the flames as a ray of black flames scuttled out suddenly.

Gillian's expression slightly changed at this sight.

”Not good!”
