Chapter 108 The Tragic Death Of King Lance, The Extremely Ferocious Snake Demon
Crossing the city walls, this obstacle.
Tens of thousands of demons rushed into the city of Dibite, killing and devouring humans.
Wails, screams, and cries of pain echoed one after another.
Resounding through the sky above the royal capital.
Lance Palace.
Standing on the high platform.
Looking at the city that had already become a hell, King Lance was stunned, his face filled with despair and unwillingness.
He knew that everything was over.
Today, the thousand-year foundation of the Lance royal family was about to be destroyed by these damn demons.
"Father, while the demons haven't reached the palace yet, let's escape quickly!"
"Otherwise, it will be too late when the demon army surrounds the palace."
The eldest prince, Karogor, said anxiously.
"That's right!"
"Only by staying alive can we have a chance to regroup and restore the glory and foundation of the royal family in the future..."
The third prince, Akzis, who had always been at odds with the eldest prince, also spoke up.
He didn't want to die.
Especially not at the hands of demons.
This way of dying was too miserable.
His soul would be completely swallowed.
Upon hearing the words of his two most outstanding children.
King Lance, who was in a daze, showed a glimmer of light in his cloudy eyes.
That's right!
The foundation was already gone!
But the inheritance of the Lance royal family must not be severed here.
There is hope with talent.
Thinking of this,
King Lance immediately ordered to the crowd:
"You're right!"
"Order all members of the royal family to pack up their valuable items and ride warhorses to the east gate of the palace."
"Knight Andrew, immediately gather all members of the Royal Knight Order and prepare to break out of the city..."
The Royal Knight Order does not belong to the three major extraordinary knight orders; it is a private army directly under the royal family.
Although the number is only over a thousand, it cannot compare to the three major extraordinary knight orders, which often have tens of thousands of members.
But their elite level is superior.
Even the lowest-ranking members of the Royal Knight Order have the strength of the 5th rank.
The leader of the Royal Knight Order is even a Sky Knight.
It can be said that the Royal Knight Order is the last trump card and defense line of the Lance royal family.
Deploying this army represents the most critical moment for the Lance royal family.
It's time for the final gamble.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Receiving the king's order, several princes showed a hint of joy on their faces.
They immediately went to find other members of the royal family.
And Captain Andrew began to gather all members of the Royal Knight Order.
A few minutes later,
Members of the royal family arrived one after another at the east gate.
Princess Elsa was also among them.
By her side was a woman full of heroic spirit.
It was Hilda, the sixth daughter of the Rennes family.
Knowing Hilda's identity, the Berchilwo family of the Lance royal family died a tragic death in a bloody battle with demons.
Therefore.
After summoning the Lion Corps back to the capital, the Lance royal family transferred Hilda from the front lines to be Princess Elsa's personal guard.
That's why.
Hilda and Princess Elsa are able to act together.
"Hilda, do you think we can really escape?" Princess Elsa tightly gripped her staff and asked in a worried voice.
In her crystal-clear azure eyes, helplessness, unease, and fear were revealed.
What happened today was really terrifying.
Demons broke into the city and slaughtered indiscriminately.
Now the Lance royal family is abandoning everything and fleeing.
These "major events" make her, who has never experienced hardships and has been pampered since childhood, feel very insecure.
Knowing that the young princess in front of her is her father's fiancée.
Also her stepmother.
They are all family.
Hilda didn't mean to mock her.
Instead, she reassured her with a firm tone, "We definitely can!"
That's what she said.
But she also had some doubts in her heart.
After all.
There are at least a hundred thousand demons rampaging in Dibite.
Not to mention outside the city.
The number will only be greater.
To break free from such a huge demon army.
The difficulty...
I don't know Hilda's true thoughts.
After hearing Hilda's words, Princess Elsa's anxious and uneasy heart calmed down a lot.
Just as the two girls were talking.
Thousands of members of the Royal Knights gathered from all directions.
After completing the assembly.
King Lance of the Lance Kingdom immediately ordered the start of the breakout outside the city.
Due to the large number of people.
King Lance directly chose the Blue Mountain Avenue, which is the widest and leads directly to the city gate, as the breakout route.
Under the protection of the Royal Knights.
The Lance royal family's advance speed was very fast.
The small groups of demons encountered along the way were unable to hinder the progress of the crowd.
However.
The good times didn't last long.
Due to the large number of people and the size of the target.
The breakout team of the Lance royal family quickly attracted the attention of many high-level demons.
A large number of high-level demons flocked towards them in groups.
In this situation.
The resistance encountered by the breakout team of the Lance royal family became increasingly stronger.
The speed of advancement has become increasingly slow.
Misfortune always strikes when the roof is leaking.
Having completed more than half of the journey.
When the city gate is within sight.
The legendary six-armed snake demon, which is currently happily devouring humans, also notices this group of highly advanced superhumans.
The flesh and souls of superhumans are evidently much more "delicious" than those of ordinary people.
The evolutionary energy obtained after devouring them is also more abundant.
The higher the level of the superhuman, the more so.
Understanding this point.
The gaze of the legendary six-armed snake demon towards the royal escape team is filled with greed.
As if seeing some extraordinary delicacy.
Without hesitation, it launches an attack on them.
Its snake tail swings, and in the blink of an eye, it charges into the formation of the Royal Knights.
At the same time.
Its six arms hold six large knives, spinning like a meat grinder.
Wherever it passes.
Whether human or demon, all are shredded into pieces.
In an instant.
The Royal Knights have lost nearly half of their men.
Andrew, the Sky Knight and the leader of the Knights, is also powerless and dies at the hands of this six-armed snake demon.
As for King Lance and several princes who were protected closely by Knight Andrew.
It goes without saying.
They too become food in the mouths of demons, being devoured alive.
Seeing the backbone of the main force completely gone.
The royal escape team instantly fell into chaos.
Everyone lost the courage to face this ferocious demon.
Everyone's faces were filled with fear, scattering in all directions.
In such chaos,
Hilda's reaction was also extremely quick.
Decisively pulling Princess Elsa, she led a small group of royal knights towards the direction of the city gate to escape.
After all,
Dibit has now become a playground for demons.
Not escaping from this ghostly place would undoubtedly lead to death.
It's just a matter of dying sooner or later.
Taking advantage of others scattering and attracting the demon's attention,
Quickly leaving the city is the best choice.
This decision was very correct.
Unfortunately,
Lady Luck clearly did not favor them.
The team scattered.
After devouring more than a dozen humans who were relatively close to itself, the six-armed snake demon turned its attention to Tilda and the others.
Soon, swinging its snake tail, it chased after them.
∵々Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"
Hearing the sharp and terrifying strange snake hissing sound getting closer from behind.
Hilda and Elsa's hearts beat even more violently.
They desperately urged their war horses to accelerate.
However.
This is obviously useless.
Even an ordinary Warcraft warhorse, even if it runs until it spits blood, cannot match the speed of a legendary demon.
In just a few seconds.
The six-armed snake demon rushed behind Hilda and the others.
As if it had just feasted and was full.
The six-armed snake demon was ready to have some post-meal "entertainment" and play around.
But it didn't swing the six large knives in its hands as ferociously as before, cutting everyone into pieces.
It only used its hands to cut off the legs of the horses that Hilda and the others were riding.
"Lyu!~"
"Lyu!~"
"Lyu!~"
The warhorses screamed and fell down.
Hilda and the others who were sitting on the horses were thrown off and rolled on the ground several times.
"That demon is catching up! Run!"
Enduring the intense pain.
They got up from the ground.
Hilda pulled Princess Aisha and rushed into a nearby alley.
And the six-armed snake demon followed closely behind the two women.
Like a cat playing with a mouse.
Occasionally launching attacks, watching the two women panic and flee.
No matter whether Hilda and the others used magic or combat skills, they couldn't shake off the pursuit of this demon.
More than ten minutes later.
Under such intense and frantic fleeing,
Hilda and Princess Elsa quickly depleted their physical strength, fighting spirit, and magic power.
Naturally, their speed also slowed down.
Seeing this,
the six-armed snake demon seemed to have had enough fun.
With a burst of speed, it easily ran ahead of the two women's escape route and blocked their way.
Seeing this terrifying demon gradually approaching them,
Hilda and Princess Elsa's hearts sank rapidly.
Their eyes were filled with thick despair.
They knew that they were most likely doomed.
"Hiss!~"
Seeing the fear and despair on the faces of these humans,
the ugly face of the six-armed snake demon clearly showed a pleased expression.
Immediately, it raised the large knife in its hand high, ready to dismember the two women.
"Mouth!"
Accompanied by the sound of air tearing,
the six large knives fell rapidly.
Hilda and Elsa, who had no power to resist, instinctively closed their eyes.
Waiting for death to come.
However,
the next second,
"Holy Light Shatters Evil Slash!"
A nearly ten-meter-long golden sword energy descended from the sky.
Carrying the purifying holy aura, it fiercely slashed down on the six-armed snake demon's head.
The speed was like light, reaching its extreme...
