Chapter 1388 Abyss Demon
A level 4 primary corpse hound, with its undead body and fearful aura, it is a terrifying beast that kills in all directions and spreads blood for thousands of miles in any plane.
However, facing this elite team sent by the Wizards Association, it collapsed into blood stains all over the ground after only three encounters. The hill-like pile of rotting corpses also quickly festered and decayed, turning into a pool of smelly and pungent black water, gradually blending into the black earth.
But it also left behind a withered heart and a crystal of resentment.
They are all level 4 materials and are valuable.
Seeing several of his men carefully putting away the harvest of the battle, there was not much joy visible on Horner's face covered with a short, thick black beard.
He stared solemnly at the fog below, his expression cold and determined.
"It looks like a big guy came out from below, otherwise a vicious creature like the Corpse Hound wouldn't have rushed out so recklessly..."
Schreiber, who was standing beside him, waved away the flame shield and also felt the movement in the valley with his eyebrows raised, a cautious look on his face.
"It's the breath of fire and sulfur... In my opinion, some demon from the abyss may have come in! Never mind it, just clean it up if you encounter it. I'm short of some demon blood for experiments!"
"If it's just one or two, we won't be afraid with our strength, but there are too many..." At this point, even Horner, who has always been a bully and impulsive, hesitated: "These devil bastards are very hard-headed. It’s very, very hard to cut!”
"If there are too many, we will go back and let them meet and bleed in front of the War Witch Tower before coming out to harvest. Do you still want to die in this stinking Moyuan Valley?" Schreiber replied angrily. One sentence.
Horner smiled brightly and started again, leading the way into the fog.
…………
In the middle of the continent, there is a big rift in space.
Compared with the Moyuan Valley, the size of the Great Space Rift is ten times smaller, so the strength or quantity of the alien monsters and aberrations pouring in here are not comparable.
But correspondingly, the overall strength of Andrews' Arden family cannot be compared with the behemoth Wizards Association. Therefore, it had only been more than a month, and the heavy pressure he had endured had already left him physically and mentally exhausted and in great pain.
However, his status as the patriarch of the Arden family made him unable to give up. After all, this was his family's territory, and behind him were his trusted clan members who had followed him for hundreds of years. On this territory, there are nearly six million territorial citizens belonging to the Arden family and countless manors, castles and villages and towns.
As long as one or two monsters leak out from here, the surrounding villages, towns and people will face disaster.
Although he had tried his best to arrange all evacuation matters in the territory before the outbreak of the magic wave, and moved most of the territory's residents to areas protected by wizard towers. But the huge chaos caused by this gave him a huge headache.
The demonic tide will not pass in a day or two. According to past experience, the demonic tide breaks out in the early stage, stabilizes in the middle stage, and then slowly subsides in the later stage. The whole process lasts for a hundred years.
Hundreds of years... this may only be a small part of life for high-level wizards, but for those helpless mortals, it is a long life.
Relying on the family's past savings and reserves, it may be possible to gather the people in the territory to protect them for a period of time. But once time passes, even the Arden family's background cannot support it.
Therefore, he now just wants to survive the first ten years of the most ferocious demon tide in a stable manner, and when the situation becomes a little more stable, he will try his best to restore the territory and its people to the previous normal state.
But in this plan, the big space rift is always a huge unstable factor!
Once an overly powerful star beast breaks into the territory one day, the family's arrangement here cannot stop it. So what will happen next is extremely scary even if you think about it with your toes.
To be honest, the Arden family was able to firmly defend the Great Space Rift in the first month of the demonic tide. In addition to the strength of their own family, they mainly relied on the five hundred troops sent by the Crimson Family. The Magical Machinery Group, as well as Mary and Monash Gaia...
For a normal wizard family, the core power is the family wizards cultivated internally. Although they are not many in number, they are the core part of a family and the foundation for the family to grow and develop.
In order to make up for the lack of basic combat power, most wizard families will also cultivate some alien beast legions or wizard troops to charge into battle. They are essentially just a group of wizard apprentices with the same combat power as wizards, and they can be regarded as 'waste utilization' of those apprentices who have no hope of promotion.
However, due to the impact of the demonic tide, those alien beast legions had to return to their respective planes, where they guarded the ruling order of the secondary planes for the Arden family. Therefore, the only troops left for Andrews to defend the Great Rift in Space were the Witch Beast troops and a small number of Wizard troops.
Such a team may not have much of a problem in dealing with ordinary wizard wars, but if it is used to resist those star beasts or monsters that can break into the wizard world across the endless void, it will be powerless and full of dangers.
So far, there are only two star beasts that have broken in through the big rift in space.
The fourth-level fish-like star beast was injured by Mary, and then died at the hands of the Arden family's pterosaur team. The other third-level star beast was killed by Andrews himself, and he was killed under the wizard tower with great joy.
In addition, the number of monsters and strange creatures pouring in is as high as more than a hundred. The lowest level among them is a high-level beast of level 2. In the mortal world, it is also a guy who can easily destroy a city and a country.
But here, it is just the most insignificant minion on the plane battlefield!
However, starting from the 37th day of the outbreak of the magic tide, the turbulence of the space rift has become more and more intense, and the alien creatures rushing out of it are more inclined to the abyss demons.
From the red flame demons, long-horned demons, hellhounds, quasers, flo demons and succubi with only level 1 and 2 strength, to the high-level demon hunting spiders, berserker demons, seducers, six-armed snake demons and balor demons...
Andrews is very suspicious whether a certain abyss lord wants to invade the wizard world and takes advantage of the magic tide to open a plane channel from the abyss to the space rift, which sends so many ugly and annoying abyss demons to his territory.
As we all know, the Abyss Demons are twisted creatures that are irritable, full of malice, arbitrary and violent, but have no sense of morality and cannot predict their next move.
They often invade other planes, bringing destruction and fear...
They are committed to destroying and destroying everything (including their own kind), and they enjoy it...
They resist order, and even the Abyss Lord cannot make them act completely according to their own ideas...
Unless they are controlled by spells, they will never unite or carry out any actions in a planned manner. The idea of the last moment will be overturned the next moment. They don't care whether the plan can be completed or the goal can be achieved.
They only care whether their cruel, tyrannical, bloodthirsty and chaotic nature can be satisfied. Apart from this, they don't care about anything else.
In the final analysis, the Abyss Demons are just a group of ugly and evil creatures created by evil souls or evil thoughts that have been contaminated by the will of the Abyss. There is no rationality at all.
Other monsters and monsters have to consider whether they can survive the battle and enjoy the feast of flesh and blood later when they venture into other planes. But these abyss demons don't care about anything. Even though they know that this is a bloody battlefield where they will surely die, they rush over like crazy and excited.
Fight, fight, and fight again until they fall in a pool of blood in the mud...
Encountering such a bloodthirsty demon, a 4th-level wizard like Andrews will also have a headache!
No matter how many abyss demons there are, they can't pose any threat to his life. However, the threat to the War Wizard Tower of the Alden family is huge.
After all, all the abyss demons are powerful evil creatures who practice both magic and martial arts!
They have black and magic-resistant skin covered with magic patterns on their bodies, and their physical strength is unprecedentedly strong. They can completely withstand the violent witchcraft bombardment of the War Wizard Tower and knock down a group of witch beasts.
And the demonic spells they cast casually also caused visible damage to the War Wizard Tower.
What's more terrifying is that most high-level demons have "precision teleportation" and can instantly teleport themselves to any area within sight on the battlefield. With such racial abilities, the wizards' tactics of using witch beasts to block the enemy in the distance and then start a war to bombard the witch tower will no longer work.
Any wizard of the Alden family who dares to leave the witch tower will be overwhelmed by the swarming abyss demons the next moment. No matter how strong your combat power is, no matter how powerful your witchcraft is, you will die on the spot when facing the persistent chopper team.
Therefore, after the death of two level 3 wizards, all wizards of the Alden family never dared to leave the witch tower.
In this way, the task of blocking the abyss demons from escaping the battlefield can only fall on the witch beast troops. And they are like a group of hounds facing lions and tigers in front of the huge and terrifying abyss demons. Apart from the desperate barking and shrill wails, it is difficult to stop them at all.
So, as some abyss demons escaped from the battlefield and broke into the family territory behind, the war spread.
In just a few days, the entire territory of the Alden family was filled with smoke, the cries of humans, and the rampaging demonic creatures... The once peaceful and harmonious human society also became a sacrifice and victim of this demonic tide.
In a dark and gloomy secret room, Andrews opened the magic crystal in front of him with a heavy expression and sent a communication request to the distance.
