Chapter 293 The Balanced Battlefield
The Giant Skull Demon is a very powerful legendary demon. This kind of demon only has a giant brain with a face, so among demons known for their tenacity in physical combat, They are a rare and unique species that can hardly fight with their bodies. However, although they do not have the ability to fight hand-to-hand, this does not affect their power at all, because the most dangerous thing about them is. The endless amount of forbidden knowledge in their minds.
Yes, knowledge. Among the demons known for being brainless, giant skull demons are the most alternative type. They are highly intellectual among demons, because such demons will gain knowledge after they are born. A kind of instinctive nature, which is like a mental illness that forces them to spontaneously collect all intelligence in their area. No matter what kind of information it is, valuable or worthless, they want to know.
The existence of this characteristic makes this race extremely difficult to deal with. With their powerful natural abilities and instincts that are weird and abnormal for demons, almost all giant skull demons are from the abyss. Masters of forbidden magic, seekers, and mobile libraries of evil. The best among them can even be called prophets.
The longer a Giant Skull Demon lives, the more forbidden knowledge he has in his mind, which means he is more powerful. However, even a newly born Giant Skull Demon can never be called weak. This demon is born with two very powerful spell-like abilities.
One of them is the [distorted ripples] that the giant skull demon is currently emitting continuously. This ripple looks like a group of irregular transparent solid sound waves, and only the outline can be barely seen, but this attack is not as powerful as it seems. Simple.
This energy wave has a very weird effect. Once hit by this weird ripple, the creature will bear double trauma in terms of body and soul. Most targets will not even have time to react. It will be twisted into rotten flesh, which is a very dangerous attack ability.
The other ability is [Corruption Aura]. Once any creature comes within 60 feet (20 meters) of the Giant Skull Demon, it will suffer corrosion from the soul to the body. These two attacks Either rely on magic protection, or you can only rely on the spirit and body of the creature to carry it through. If the creature cannot survive, the power of corruption will turn it into a withered black mass in less than 30 seconds. of waste.
"It's really fatal. How can a demon of this level bypass the front line of a bloody battle?"
Nohir frowned in the sky. He didn't know why all this happened. It will happen, but the appearance of a legendary demon on the battlefield below is enough to break the situation that the demon army has finally stabilized. Once the demon's front is lost, the endless abyss demons will mercilessly slaughter everyone in the city. , this is an ending even worse than the devil winning!
"Wait, maybe the situation is not that bad. This giant skull demon definitely did not appear here just now, and during the time he appeared, the devil's front line still did not collapse. This should be enough to show that the devil One side has the means to fight against the Giant Skull Demon.”
Thinking of this, Nohill carefully observed the battlefield again. At this time, the small group of demons attacked by the Giant Skull Demon had begun to retreat in an orderly manner. They directly abandoned the section of defense where they were stationed and began to control the large long-range weapons staying behind. Nohill understood the devil's plan as soon as he saw this operation.
“So that’s it, because of the giant skull demon’s irrepressible aura of corruption, every time this demon launches an attack, even his men dare not get too close. Taking advantage of this, the demons It is often enough to deal with only one demon, the Giant Skull Demon, within a certain period of time. As long as you can buy time for the demons behind to redirect their firepower and use a large number of high-power long-range weapons to push him back."
The Giant Skull Demon below naturally understood the plan of these demons, because Nohill guessed it right. He had indeed been forced back many times by the devil with this attack, and just when the Giant Skull Demon wanted to continue chasing , a 12-foot-tall (four-meter) humanoid beetle holding a spear suddenly teleported over with a burst of light, and the moment it arrived on the battlefield, it suddenly opened its wasp-like beak and sprayed out There was a violent cold current, which formed a thick ice wall to block the giant skull demon who wanted to pursue it. "A Chiru Demon!"
Qilu demons, also known as ice demons, are high-level demons. Among the harsh classes in hell, the demons of this race are already considered to be upper-class figures. They are the aristocratic class second only to the hell fiends. All ice demons are often They have a high official position, which directly depends on their high strength and natural magic power.
Just like the common name of this race, the best thing about ice demons is their innate ability to control cold currents. In addition to spitting out deadly cold breath, ice demons also have powerful spells that can freeze enemies with a wave of their hands. ability.
Just with this hand, the ice demon can be said to have good combat power, but even so, a mere ice demon cannot stop a giant skull demon for too long.
Sure enough, not long after the battle between the ice demon and the giant skull demon, the giant skull demon's unpreventable spell-like ability had already shattered the wall created by the ice demon, and then in the next moment, the giant skull demon's Hundreds of magic missiles emitting unstable red light suddenly appeared next to the huge head. With a burst of ear-piercing explosions, hundreds of missiles hit the ice demon from all directions with dazzling trajectories. It is a missile storm with the effect of a seven-ring spell!
But the Ice Demon couldn't bear to show weakness. At the same time, he immediately raised the spear in his hand and swung it violently. A cold wind suddenly blew in the scorching hell, and the cold wind howled and rolled up the people in the hell. Blackened sulfur dust. Turning it into a black snow storm, it directly exploded most of the magic missiles launched by the Giant Skull Demon.
The red light produced by the magic missile explosion briefly illuminated the battlefield covered by the snow storm for a while, but only for a short while. The ice demon took advantage of the cover brought by the wind, snow and explosion to retreat to a relatively safe area behind, leaving the giant The dissociation rays subsequently launched by the Skull Demon fell in vain, but the remaining magic missiles bypassed the ice storm in an arc range and suddenly hit the retreating Ice Demon.
“Holy shit, these two guys are so strong. Although the giant skull demon is obviously better, it seems that the devil is not incapable of dealing with radium.”
< br>Nohir looked at the ice demon who was hit by magic missiles and had several wounds on his body, but seemed to be fine, and then looked at the legion demons who were already adjusting the muzzles and crossbow arrows.
"The legion demons are almost ready. As long as the ice demon can delay for a while, this ice demon should be a legion commander level figure. There are currently eight demons on the battlefield. Legion, as long as there are a few more demons of the same level as him, this giant skull demon will not be able to cause any trouble..."
