Chapter 862: Demon power
500 thousand... This is all that remains of all the Demons' race that were scattered in the Orphan Blood and Jura Planets after their number was once estimated at nearly 20 million!
After the Demon City in the central region expanded to include nearly a quarter of the continent the demons of the blood of the orphan began to build several cities and villages with mud and tree branches, After they flourished like never before... They got the short end of the stick.
500 thousand demons, mostly cubs who can barely keep up with the run alongside their elders, and old demons dragging their feet and showing their broken teeth, while a small number of the rest are flying behind the twenty-plus Demons Emperors, while others are too injured to try anything but running...
This is no longer an army, these are the residents of a city that was hastily gathered and ordered to war!!
And yet they were all running madly as if their lives depended on it, driven by hatred and thirst for blood, the demon army does not recognize the weak and the strong, and the goblin army knows only two things: alive or not.
"Crush them!"
"Rooaaaar!!"
An entire fleet left the local tribes' army alone and turned their attention to the incoming Demon army, and it wasn't long before the two massive armies clashed in a majestic scene. Aru kept glancing at the battlefield that had suddenly escalated to be even bloodier than the battle of the tribes, and even now he was still surprised that the Demons hadn't done anything to stab him in the back!
It's true that he had agreed with them to help each other until support came, but he didn't expect them to actually come, not during a death siege like this one...
"Heh~" Aru smiled, then twirled his spear and charged toward the handful of Great Serpent Emperors, "We mustn't fall behind them!"
*Kachaaaa*
Aru had over 45 Martial Emprers on his side when the Great Serpent Emperor's invasion began, including the ten who had been sent as a delegation to negotiate with him.
Currently, he only has 24 left, technically all the close-minded martial Emperors who refused any relationship with outsiders are dead.
The only ones left with him so far are the 10 Martial Emperors who came on a mission due to their full golden armor and rings filled with energy pearls and talismans, and the other 14 Martial Emperors who accepted some pieces of weapons and talismans from those 10 and used them to protect themselves.
The only one who hasn't used anything from the True Beginning Empire yet is Aru, and that's because he hasn't made his position clear yet and he shouldn't use what doesn't belong to him... But he was surprised that once again, he was using the help of the demons.
Anyway, the situation towards the tribal army was getting worse quickly, even after one of the fleets left, there were still 25 Martial Emperors against 200!!
What helps them survive until now is that they use energy pearls as an advantage and keep flying at top speed all the time and raining attacks from afar, anyone who stops them for a moment will be trapped and killed!
"Finish them quickly, we have to turn this planet upside down until we find that damn pyramid!" The marshal waved angrily
*Vroom*
The spaceships began to prepare for another round of cannon shots unwillingly, this battle method drains a lot of energy and this is a problem, especially on a planet with no energy resources like Orphan Blood.
"Not so fast!" Aru shouted loudly and swung his spear toward the sky, the storm that was already there grew in size and began to roar, and several flashes of lightning began to gather
*clap* *clap*
"This...?! I've never heard of this kind of talent before..." The Marshal frowned, "Maybe 10 level 45 Martial Emperors could cooperate to make an attack of this scale, but he prepared it alone and in the blink of an eye... The amount of energy he can use in one go is supernatural, it's like he used up half of his energy reserves in one go, even though he's still level 45, I'm going to have to fight him seriously!"
"Marshal, we need help here!!" At this moment, a disturbed call came from behind
"Ughh!!"
"What's wrong? Can't you even take care of some--?! Oh..." The Marshal's angry response stopped in mid-sentence when he saw what everyone was screaming about.
The Marshal opened his eyes wide, all 100 Martial Emperors in the fleet were currently in one- on-one combat, some were even fighting one-on-two.
This meant that the number of Emperors among the Demons wasn't limited to the 20 that appeared before, there were many more hidden among them, at least another 100 Demon
Emperors!!
As for General Flits, a Level 47 Martial Emperor and one of the most experienced warriors in the Great Serpent Empire, his neck was in the grip of the Demon General.
"Impossible, this isn't what the fugitives' report said about your strength!!" The Marshal seemed to be one step away from madness, it was said that there were crimson things that had lost most of their forces and only had a little more than ten Martial Emperors left, and the leader of those beings was barely as strong as amid-level Martial Emperor, but the Demon General standing before him was at the very least as strong as a Marshal!!!
"The banquet after the battle was quite filling, and the banquets you left behind for us in every tribe you destroyed provided more and more help hahaha." Demon Emperor Sayer laughed loudly and then slapped his forehead, "You give us the demon a chance to eat and heal after a battle? If His Excellency were here, he would have laughed himself to death hahaha... hahahahaha!!!"
Demon Sayer then looked at Aru, "Please don't take offense, this is a matter of life and death."
"No problem!" Aru laughed and then pointed to the lightning bolts, twenty Battle Emperors struck at the same time, the largest of which landed on the Marshal's head.
