Episode 14: Demons Chapter 21: Chaos
The front of the corridor passage was filled with pink mist, and everything ahead was unknown.
“Snort Linley’s earth-colored robe was just covering most of his entire body, and at this moment, Linley’s hands were also covered with a layer of earth-colored film, and Linley’s neck and even his face were covered with a layer of earth-colored film.
This was all pulsating armor.
The only thing that was revealed was just a pair of eyes.
It wasn’t just Linley, after experiencing the intense firing of the God Slaying Vector just now, all of the Mediate Deities in Linley’s and their group understood that the location of that intense arrow attack was all-encompassing, and the speed of that arrow was so fast that it was simply too late for people to react.
Therefore, one could only defend the entire body!
Head, hands, feet, neck …… all positions of the whole body are protected!
Although a team of a hundred people, but everyone walking in the corridor passage is silent, can not hear a single sound, only occasionally will ring Crompton’s annoying chiding voice: “In front, faster!”
But this chiding voice echoed in the corridor, increasingly making the entire castle dead silent.
“Ah!”
Intense screams came from the distance, along with chaotic chants and angry curses from afar.
Linley couldn’t help but give their pace a lurch.
“Another squad has been attacked.”
Linley and the others understood.
“This castle master released that pink poisonous mist, so it was for this.”
It dawned on Linley in his heart that it was precisely because the pink poisonous mist was all over the place that caused Linley and the others to not dare to release their divine sense away at all. After all, if they were slightly contaminated, their souls would have to be affected.
Even if they didn’t go berserk, their combat prowess would have to be reduced.
Linley and the others didn’t dare to release their divine sense. The other party didn’t dare either. However, the other party was very familiar with the structure of the castle, or some of the internal organs and dark passages. This put Linley and the others at an absolute disadvantage.
“Hurry up in front!”
Another demon in the back shouted, “What’s wrong with all of you? Scared and weak in the knees?”
The group of people at the front of the line were extremely resentful, being at the front of the line was already the most dangerous, but to ask them to move forward quickly, wasn’t it forcing them to send themselves to their deaths? Yet they didn’t dare to resist these demons. After all, the demons that came this time were all at the level of Upper Gods.
“It’s time to turn the corner!”
The group walked to a bend in the road, and one by one, everyone turned to another walkway.
Inside the dimly lit dark tunnel. Ten Golden Clothes Guards held divine bows inside.
“Almost there, they’ve turned the corner!”
That gold-clothed guard squad leader whispered, “Everyone prepare to strike!”
“Understood. Captain.”
Those Golden Clothes Guards were all glowing, all holding divine bows, five arrows directly in their hands, shooting five arrows at once, for the Golden Clothes Guards, although there might be some impact in terms of accuracy. However, —- now it is a blind shot, because the walkway is straight, just need to shoot straight through. “You guys can be really wasteful.”
That captain was however just using one arrow.
“Whoever hits this arrow of yours from the captain, that’s a sure death.”
The captain smiled bashfully.
In fact, the information from the Demon Castle was a bit wrong, indeed. There were two levels of Black Clothes Guards and Gold Clothes Guards in Moon Lake Castle. The Black Clothes Guards were all more powerful Upper Gods, that much was true. However, this Gold Clothes Guard ……
however, were not all Mediate Gods.
To be precise, the vast majority of them were Mediate Gods, while a very small number of them were Upper Gods, who didn’t become Black Clothes Guards. Instead, they were arranged to become junior captains of the Gold Clothes Guards.
Within the Gold Clothes Guards, there were only two levels, one was an ordinary member of the Gold Clothes Guards, and the other was a squad leader. And a few small captains in general were at the behest of the Black Clothes Guards. Ten Black Clothes Guards. Dividing up the entire Gold Clothes Guard. And the captain of this gold-clothed squad that was preparing to ambush Linley and the others. He was an Elder God!
Though, one who had only refined the Godhead to become a God.
“After I open the wall. When you hear my command, shoot immediately!”
“Snort!”
Quite abruptly, the stone wall in front of the dark passage suddenly moved away like lightning, revealing the ten Golden Clothes Guards behind it.
It was only because of the pink mist shrouding them that Linley and the others didn t see …… the ten gold clad guards at the end of their path.
The captain of the gold-clad guards looked indifferently at the pink mist in front of them.
“Shoot!”
The captain ordered at the same time with divine sense transmission, only he himself was the last one to shoot instead because he opened the wall.
“Poof!”
“Poof!”
“Poof!”
In an instant, as if it was raining, a full forty-six arrows covered all directions of the passageway. The moment the shooting was finished, that stone wall closed up again with an open face. It was impossible to tell from the outside that the wall was actually active.
Linley and the others were walking carefully.
Carefully looking ahead, but Linley’s pupils abruptly contracted and his face changed drastically – dense arrows instantly cut through space, mercilessly shooting at Linley and the others, or shooting through the gaps in the people to the back. The arrows were too fast, and when Linley and the others saw them, they were only tens of meters away.
At a distance of tens of meters, Linley and the others couldn’t dodge at all.
“Delia!”
For a brief moment, Linley only had time to make a single movement, stretching out his arms in an effort to block in front of Delia, trying his best to keep Delia completely behind him.
“Poof!”
“Poof!”
Even if Linley wasn’t the one at the front, enough arrows landed on him. The arrows seemed to shoot at Linley’s body as if they were lightning bolts, but the essence of Linley’s earth-colored robes on his body surface were countless ripples of divine power, instantly canceling out the terrifying penetration completely.
An arrow was also shot at Bebe’s body.
“Clang!”
With the sound of metal clashing, the tip of that arrow unexpectedly exploded into smithereens and fell to the ground.
“Too weak.”
Bebe smiled to himself.
“It’s all fine.”
Linley instantly realized that Delia and Bebe were all fine. He couldn’t help but feel relieved.
Linley’s face changed abruptly. The only thing within his range of vision was that terrifyingly terrifying arrow in the distance!
“There’s another arrow!”
It was the latest arrow!
But it was also the most terrifying arrow. It was the arrow of the gold-robed guard captain! The tip of the God Slaying Vector shone with a cold black light, instantly penetrating space and causing it to leave behind ripples. It didn’t give Linley any time to react at all, shooting directly at Linley’s chest.
“Pfft!”
The arrow’s penetrating power was too terrifying, and even though countless divine ripples madly removed the penetrating power, it was still penetrated by the arrow with great difficulty.
“Ah!”
Linley’s entire body directly half-kneeled helplessly.
Beside him, the face of Bebe, who was still collecting the corpses, changed abruptly, “Boss!”
Delia, who had also breathed a sigh of relief a moment ago, was also startled.
“Hmph, finally dead?”
The bald Crompton at the end of the group had been paying attention to Linley, when he saw Linley sitting on his knees, a smile couldn’t help but appear on his face, “I didn’t kill you. It was someone else who killed you, haha he was extremely pleased in his heart.
The arrow itself wasn’t terrifying, what was truly terrifying was the poisonous gray airflow contained in the tip of the arrow instantly rushing into Linley’s mind. It ruthlessly penetrated into Linley’s soul!
“Peng!”
It impacted viciously on the transparent film, this transparent scale film was a soul defense master artifact, and apart from the tattered openings, all the other positions were the same as when it was intact. The gray air current only impacted once, and more than half of its energy disappeared.
The remaining gray airflow, as if it had a spirit, knew that this transparent film was not to be messed with, and surprisingly, they all dispersed, transforming into a gray light point, covering the entire transparent diaphragm. Naturally, it also covered the opening. And this open mouth …… still had a patch formed by Linley’s spiritual power sealing it.
“What the hell is this?”
Linley was shocked in his heart, he always felt that this gray light spot had spirituality!
“Brush!”
Instantly, all the gray light points, as if they had discovered that the patch was weaker. Immediately, they madly impacted the patch. Consuming more than half of their energy, they directly broke through the opening. It rushed into Linley’s soul ocean.
At this moment —- a large number of gray light points, surprisingly split into three, three weak gray streams, respectively, rushed towards Linley’s Godhead, and Linley’s two great divine doppelgangers.
“Surprisingly, it’s attacking all of my souls at the same time!”
Linley was astonished.
But despite being surprised. Linley still controlled the spiritual energy in his soul ocean. A pulsating defense was formed! A large amount of spiritual energy ripples impacted with these gray points of light for a moment. All of the gray points of light disappeared into thin air, and Linley’s spiritual energy was more than half depleted.
“That’s really terrifying.”
Only at this moment did Linley let out a sigh of relief.
“Boss, boss!”
“Linley! Linley!”
Delia and Bebe both called out in low voices before they were beside Linley.
Although the description of that soul poison entering the body was rather long. But it was only a second or two before Linley opened his eyes again.
“I’m fine.”
Linley gave them a small smile.
Delia and Bebe both just breathed a sigh of relief, but Linley’s heart was a little heavy: “That poison, it was truly terrifying. No wonder at the Bauhinia Castle, that attendant said that this God Slaughtering Vector was generally able to kill for Mediate Gods. It’s too bizarre and terrifying.”
This God Slaughtering Vector’s poison, in Linley’s opinion, had a kind of spirituality.
Although it wasn’t quite the ability to think, it had an instinct to avoid the strong and the weak.
“This poison, however, has a strong soul attraction to it.”
Linley understood that if it had the ability to think, the poison should focus on destroying a soul. But this poison wasn’t, instead, it attacked all three of Linley’s souls at once!
“Not dead?”
Crompton, who was at the back of the group, couldn’t help but stare in surprise when he saw that Linley had stood up, and then his expression grimaced, “Hmph, having survived it once, I’ll see how many more times you can survive it… This God Slaying Vector’s Soul Attack… even if you carry it through, your soul power will be depleted, won’t it?”
“Move!”
Crompton roared again.
This time there were a dozen dead in the group, and after two attacks, there were only about sixty Mediate Gods left. Linley’s three were already at the front of the group.
“Boss, it can’t go on like this.”
Bebe said worriedly.
“I know.”
Linley also understood.
Who knew what other tactics the enemy had, if they were always in a defensive state like this, once they couldn’t defend themselves, it would be over.
“To the third floor!”
Linley and the others walked slowly down the stairs towards the bottom.
“Everyone be careful.”
A Mediate God spoke up, “The third level is definitely more dangerous than the second!”
Inside a large, empty room on the third level of the castle from top to bottom, ten gold-clad guards came in through a secret passage.
“The master has really gone crazy this time, even taking out this Death Puppet.”
The gold-clad guards were excited.
“But the Death Golem, there are only twenty in total. It would be good for our squad to get a share of one.”
That gold-robed guard captain smiled faintly and said, “Aren, this Death Golem that was distributed to us, you’ll be the one to control it. I won’t need it!”
After all, the gold-clad guard captain was already an Upper God Realm powerhouse, and although the Death God Puppet was powerful, it was only comparable to him.
The third level was even larger, and the layout within the castle was even more chaotic, to the point that when walking, one didn’t even know which path to follow. One could only walk chaotically with one’s mind.
“It can’t go on like this!”
Linley walked slowly, but there was always pink mist ahead, and no one knew what would pop up in front of him.
Suddenly —- “Stop!”
A bellowing voice rang out.
“Brothers, all escape!”
Chaotic ground sounds came from other areas of the castle, and the sixty or so people in Linley’s squad were all startled.
Linley’s face glowed.
Immediately, Linley’s divine sense was released to cover the forty to fifty people in front of the team, “Brothers, if this goes on, we’ll be finished, we’re all fleeing together, we’re all spread out, so we won’t be wiped out by the people in the interior of the castle!”
“Brothers, escape!”
Linley steeply shouted.
Almost instantly, as if they had been trained, all of the Mediate Gods simultaneously either scurried in towards the houses next to them, or darted within the distant mists, or towards the bends next to them, etc…….
In the blink of an eye!
All sixty or so god level powerhouses ran away!
Crompton’s three demons were instantly dumbfounded.
“I, who are we chasing after?”
Crompton turned his head to the two demons next to him.
“Chase my ass!”
One demon cursed lowly.
