Chapter 618 - 583: Trapping and Killing a Horde of Demons
Time passed by minute by minute, the chaos continued within the Demon Palace.
Every moment longer it takes, the more the Holy Vine Seeds can absorb the nutrients needed for growth, so they can more effectively combine with Tachiusu’s powerful spells. Da Fei has witnessed the optimal effects of Tachiusu’s major spell. It was during the showdown with the Evil Branch Tribe in the Vine Demon Space when she planted ordinary vine seeds into the corpses of the Evil Branch Tree Spirits, and then they suddenly burst into growth, entangling the Evil Branch Fortress instantly.
Even the common vines could be so effective, what about the Holy Vine Seeds? If he could take out all the demons soaking in the pool in one fell swoop to absolutely dominate the scene, then his troops could deal tons of damage to their heads, instantly controlling the battlefield.
Well, the original target was to kill a big fat one, now with dozens of extra gifts, Da Fei would not be polite. As long as he could take them down, to revive his fortress, to clear the road of killing the Eight-Headed Snake, all the current investments are worth it.
Now Da Fei calmly awaited the moment to strike. At this time, the dancing slave girls in the field also caught Da Fei’s attention. Earlier, the mist was thick and he was too busy to look closely, but upon a careful inspection, Da Fei suddenly realized that some of these slave girls were exceptional Elves; they were neither the Forest Elves of the Elf Kingdom nor the Dark Elves, but their seductive charm surpassed that of Banshees, utterly irresistible. Such exquisite slave girls, oh no, he must rescue them!
Under the sway of lustful thoughts, Da Fei asked Elena next to him, "What kind of Elves are they? I’ve never seen this Elf clan before."
At this moment, Elena’s face turned dark and grim: "They’re hybrids! The offspring born from the union of Demons and Dark Elves!"
Da Fei exclaimed, "Mixed-blood?"
Elena said coldly, "Over a hundred years ago, my Mother Empress was deluded by Demons and formed an alliance with them to jointly oppose the Dwarf Clan. During that period of the alliance, we Dark Elves received a lot of support from Demons. Our relationship was very good, and indeed, many female Dark Elves bore children with Demons. The most notorious was—"
At this point, Elena gritted her teeth with resentment, "My Mother Empress Tudhana and the Demon King had a child, Regla, who is also my brother!"
— System Prompt: You have obtained information about the Legendary Hero Regla!
Da Fei’s face twitched with surprise, holy moly! This is explosive news! Heroes that could give out their information previously were only Gru from the Elf Clan and Sirron from the Holy Demon Army of the Hell Race, which means her brother is an existence as mighty as them!
Da Fei hastily asked, "Do you get along well with your brother?" Crap, her expression just now made it clear their relationship was bad!
Elena spoke with hatred, "We Dark Elves are a matriarchal clan society. As the firstborn daughter of the Mother Empress, I was naturally the primary heir. But the Mother Empress was too fond of this brother, so to avoid trouble from me, in the battle of Dwarf City Grimbatol a hundred years ago, she had me cover the rear for a defeated army!"
Da Fei suddenly realized, so this was her story. However, since she has such a brother and a sour relationship, wouldn’t it cause considerable trouble to find the Dark Elf Tribe in the New World? Only now did Da Fei understand that her "wish to return home and take a look" was far from simple.
At this moment, Shakert spoke up, "Boss, if I may speak frankly, Lord Regla, no, Regla is notoriously cunning, ambitious, heartless, and brutal. It’s lucky for you to avoid a direct confrontation with him."
Elena’s expression turned even colder.
Da Fei asked in shock, "Just how strong is this Regla?"
Shakert spoke solemnly, "So strong, even the Demon King feared him!"
Da Fei exclaimed, "Is he that powerful?"
Shakert nodded, "He wasn’t that strong at the time, but given the pace of his growth, even the Demon King started to be cautious of him. His ambition, even back then, was so great it unnerved the Demon King, which might be the biggest reason why the Demon King changed his mind and tore up the alliance with the Dark Elves."
Elena snapped, "Enough, don’t mention that mongrel’s name anymore."
Holy moly! It was her first time losing her temper! Suddenly, everyone fell silent like cicadas in winter.
Da Fei also could not help but plan for his future journey to the New World. Even someone as fierce as Elena, who is a Human Cannon, was not on the same level as Regla. To what extent must he develop to close the gap between them? If Regla were to inherit the throne of the Dark Elves, he would undoubtedly be equipped with Divine Artifacts, and fighting him would be even less feasible, right?
Anyway, it’s still better to develop himself and avoid early contact with the Dark Elves. As for now, of course, he should focus on the present, kill who needs to be killed, and plunder what needs to be plundered. After all, he would definitely not let go of those hybrid slave girls who blended the flirtatious charm of Dark Elves with Banshees.
The crowd stopped talking, silently waiting for the arrival of what Tachiusu called the perfect moment. Meanwhile, the Demons continued their boisterous drinking, and the slave girls brought out big jars of fine wine, setting off another round of wild revelry among the Demons.
Good, drink, keep drinking, welcome you to walk further down the road of courting death. You fools who only know how to drink and eat want to compete with me? Don’t even think about it.
It was at this time when the drunk Scorpion Demon spoke up, "The hospitality is very good, but, it still lacks a bit of punch."
The big fat one laughed heartily, "The Demon Scorpion Clan isn’t satisfied without flesh and blood, these slave girls are here for the brothers to feast on! Brothers, pick whichever dancer you like and eat her up!"
The Scorpion Demons laughed wickedly, "As expected of the big boss! Generous indeed!"
The massive brute laughed wildly, "Compared to my brothers, these lowly female slaves are not worth mentioning! Ladies, it is time for your final service!"
"Ah!" In an instant, the female slaves at the scene screamed in panic and the music and dancing came to an abrupt halt!
Holy shit! Man-eating demons! This game is just too discordant! Da Fei’s eyes widened in shock as he quickly asked Tachiusu, "Can we act now? We need to rescue the innocent slaves!"
Tachiusu said solemnly, "Move out!" In that instant, Tachiusu leaped into the bathhouse with a single bound!
Da Fei immediately gave a sweeping gesture, "Charge!"
The Minotaur, Gengna, let out a roar and charged out like a cannonball!
"Who’s there?" The sudden disturbance startled the demons present.
The massive brute immediately reacted with a roar, "Kill!" Following his outcry, all the demons’ bodies flashed with blood-red light as they suddenly swelled in size!
At that very moment, a giant green Array covered the entire pool—Boom!!! With a loud bang, the pool water shot towards the sky, and a large swath of sturdy vine forest burst forth, instantly entangling and wrapping around the demons that were still growing in size! Numerous two-digit red damage numbers like "-73", "-75", "-77", and blue mana-draining numbers "-10", "-10" erupted en masse!
Caught in one fell swoop, success! That was the damage from the special move "Vine Jungle," triggered by the Holy Vine! If these were Level 5 Soldiers with only seventy hit points, they would have been instantly killed! And if they were Angels with three hundred hit points, they wouldn’t last five seconds in this jungle!
Boom! Simultaneously, a loud noise came from the ceiling of the bathhouse as the ceiling suddenly burst open. A massive meatball, Ogg, bellowed as he leaped down, rolling straight towards the massive brute!
The massive brute struggled and roared furiously, "It’s you traitors—argh!"
Ogg’s body rolled down like a giant ball, and a crescent of Blood Moon was drawn above the massive brute’s head—Bang!! Lethal Strike -1533! Dazing Strike -363! Tear Strike -351! Shattering Strike -641!
Ah! Watching Ogg’s damage from the axe from heaven, Da Fei was so astonished that he almost drooled! The horror of this single axe’s damage was one thing, but the ability to unleash so many special skills at once was another. Was this due to his innate prowess, or was it easier to trigger such special skills while air-dropping, or did he turn his rage into strength for an overperforming power?
But none of that mattered now, for the massive brute was indeed stunned! Then the second, and the third Ogres followed suit, dropping from the ceiling.
Meanwhile, Gengna’s Minotaur troops charged forward with the speed of the wind, striking the Scorpion Demons wrapped tightly like rice dumplings with no power to fight back! Fu’er’s Lizardman Crossbow Arrow troops followed close behind, pouring down the first volley of poisoned arrows, as numerous "Weakened" special effects flickered into existence! And then Tachiusu’s Vine Demon troops pounced onto the backs of the demons, unleashing a barrage of gunfire.
In an instant, the situation was completely under our control!
—Boom! A flash of Thunder Light, and the Human Cannon, Elena, finally took action!
We held the upper hand! Da Fei’s heart which had been dangling was finally put to ease. That’s right, the victory was predetermined from the surprise attack at the beginning, not to mention the use of the five precious Holy Vine Seeds!
Only at this moment did Da Fei finally take a breath and called out to the female slaves huddling in the corner, "Hide well and don’t panic, I’m here to save you!"
......
In just a few seconds, the Wandering Mercenary troops ambushed, and under the Vine Jungle’s brutal Demon Blood double drain, the Scorpion Demon Elites were completely annihilated—when everyone is an Elite, then there are no Elites! Not to mention, they were facing Elites led by heroes!
Now, only three bosses struggling and howling, unable to extricate themselves from the vine forest, were left! And Da Fei’s Jungle Hunter Druid Army was all in position, with a symphony of Arrow rain, Magic Bullets, poisoned Crossbow Arrows, and Thunder Light weaving into a dazzling curtain of light in the hall, with tons of damage pouring out every second.
"Someone!!!" Aziklo’s roar echoed through the hall!
Shakert’s sinister voice came from outside the hall, "From the day I built your palace, I’ve been ready to bury you, no one can save you now!"
Boom! A loud noise from outside the hall, and the corridor outside collapsed, sealing off any chance of rescue. It was the Kobold’s explosive charges!
Aziklo furiously shouted, "You traitor! The Demon King will destroy your whole clan!"
"I never pledged allegiance in the first place! Die!"
"Ah... Ah... Ah... Ah..." Amidst the anguished cries of fury and despair, the three Demon Leaders collapsed with a bang!
Oh yeah!
