Chapter 295 The Battle on the River Styx
Nohir put away his emotions and focused all his body and mind on the road. Then as expected, he encountered the Skyshade three hours after setting off. The swarm of little devils in the sun forced him to fall from the sky and change his way to the river.
Fortunately, the manta cloak did not disappoint Nohill. The isolation bubble produced by this magical equipment can indeed perfectly block the water of the Styx. The unique design and characteristics of the cloak can also bring him and Xiaobu with him. Driving towards the destination at a very fast speed.
The only drawback is that the corrosive power of the Styx water is somewhat beyond his expectation. Even if he only advances on the surface of the river, the magic bubbles generated by the cloak can only last for half an hour at most. The bubbles will then be corroded to the point of collapse, and if the magic power of the cloak is exhausted, he will have to wait 24 hours before he can continue to use the cloak.
Nohir must reasonably allocate and use the remaining magic power in the cloak so that he will not be unable to escape by getting into the water after encountering a dangerous situation. Although he can now transform into a dream demon and escape into the ether However, due to the unique characteristics of the ether surface, he could not stay in it for a long time.
Therefore, during the subsequent journey, Nohir spent most of the time in flight. Only when he encountered a danger that could not be solved in a short time would he choose to jump into the River Styx or escape directly into the etheric plane.
This way of traveling allowed him to easily avoid a lot of troubles that could not be solved in a short period of time. When he encountered an evil spirit that he could solve, Nohir would not hesitate to go over and give him two moves. Testing out his newly learned tricks, it took only 12 hours to reach the first destination, Stygia City, without any danger.
However, just when Nohir arrived near the city of Stygia, sneaked up from the water, and then found an opportunity to sneak into the city, a violent explosion suddenly reached his ears. middle.
“It seems that it is not very peaceful here.”
Nohir quietly floated a head from the distant waters, and then looked at the battlefield with gunfire in the distance. According to the pursuit According to the information in the demon hunter's mind, the location of the portal chosen for this demonic invasion is about 100 miles away from here. This distance is not too far compared to the scale of the entire hell, but it is definitely not close. , it is indeed somewhat unexpected for the demons to reach here, but it is not impossible if you think about it carefully.
When demons invade hell, the offensive in the first few months is often the most ferocious. Under the leadership of the demon lord, various demons will rush out like a tsunami from pre-opened portals in various places. In this case Demons can often rush to quite far away places, and at this time, the specific time of the abyss demon invasion has not been more than half a month, which is when the demons are at their strongest.
So Nohir saw this scene in front of him. The devils used their amphibious armored ship to smash into the tattered raft that the devils built with bones, scrap iron and extremely corrosion-resistant hell trees. They fell into the River Styx wailing, and were eventually corroded by the river water until even their bones were left. The artillery units on the shore were also frantically pouring ammunition at the demons on the shore and in the water. The situation seemed to be in danger for the demons, but It's not like the demons can't fight back.
Those really powerful high-level demons have long since escaped from the situation of staying on the river and being passively beaten. They have already used various methods to rush to the shore in advance and launch a counterattack. Nohill saw a six-sixth demon with his own eyes. The Arm Snake Demon waved six relatively slender giant swords and rushed into the devil's battle formation. Then he danced the weapons in his hands like a roaring hurricane, madly massacring the artillery troops on the shore, and kept moving towards the legions. Wandering away in the depths, there were almost no enemies wherever he passed. On the water battlefield, many demons that looked like snakes or lizards but had two hooks and claws suddenly sprang out from the demon side. These demons suddenly jumped out of the Styx River, and they were still surrounded by the underworld. The water columns formed by the river water seemed to be controlled by demons, carrying these demons and leaping onto the devil's armored ship.
Under the wash of the water of the Styx, the devils existing on the deck not only suffered slight corrosion damage, but also had most of their memories instantly washed away and became They were at a loss, and those demons took this opportunity to massacre the demons.
Their actions are extremely violent. With a pair of strong hooks and sharp fangs, the devils they attack will be torn into pieces in an instant. This sudden and surging attack also makes the devils chaotic, and instantly The losses were heavy.
Although the devils quickly regained their discipline under the strong orders of the commanders of each team, the attack just now was too sudden. Nohill even saw a devil's armored ship being directly attacked by those The turbulent waves brought by the demon overturned and completely sank into the River Styx.
“What kind of demon is this? There are actually creatures in the world that can survive in the River Styx?”
There are actually creatures in the River Styx, a magical river with corrosive and memory-erasing functions. Aquatic species, this surprised Nohir, but no matter how much he didn't believe it, he had already seen the existence of these demons with his own eyes. Based on what he saw before his eyes, these demons were undoubtedly immune. Negative Effects of Styx Waters.
Nohill immediately flipped through the monster knowledge in his mind and recognized that it was a demon called the water eel demon. This demon is a very special amphibious demon. In order to adapt to the lower levels, Facing the harsh water environment, they have not only evolved the ability to be immune to the negative effects of the Styx water, but also have extraordinary corrosion resistance and poison resistance, and these passive abilities are not their best skills.
Their most powerful thing is that they can secrete deadly venom all over their bodies, which can pollute a wide range of water sources. Coupled with their magic-like ability to control the surrounding water, the combination of these characteristics Making them extremely deadly no matter what kind of water they are in.
But just when Nohir thought that the demons were about to win and those demon warships were going to suffer heavy losses, he saw a large group of toad-like men, waving spears or tridents. The evil demon suddenly rushed out of the devil's warship and firmly suppressed the water eel demons in a short period of time.
Nohir saw with his own eyes that these toad people showed abilities similar to those of the water eel demons. They could control water bodies, avoid the negative effects of the water of the Styx, conduct amphibious operations, and were better than those brainless ones. What makes the demons much stronger is that this group of demons knows how to work together.
