The third round confrontation begins.
Once the card drawing and lottery drawing phases ended, wails filled the air, but the cruel fate won't be halted by the passage of time.
The scene rapidly starts to shift.
Displayed are multiple grid-like battlefields emerging.
This battlefield has many areas and numerous corners, making the space extremely three-dimensional.
Suppose the heroes can use the terrain well, although they may not necessarily defeat the Demon King, perhaps there really is a chance to escape from its grasp.
Sword Hero, Shield Hero, Axe Hero, Magic Hero, Shepherd Hero, Bow Hero, Array Hero...
Many warriors of different professions, after a dizzying moment, were teleported onto the battlefield and distributed to different positions.
The same went for twenty-three Demon Kings descending onto the field.
The Demon Kings have no distinctions, no classification of professions, but they excel in summoning, magic, physical skills, ranged attacks, healing, spirit...
The skills of the Demon Kings have cooldowns, but their range is extensive, and their damage high.
...
...
The massive battlefield is divided into a plaza area, which is a vast plain, followed by continuous grid-like zones.
Inside the grid zone, intersections appear from time to time, presenting choices.
This is Area Four.
Currently, Zheng Zai, transformed into the Shield Hero, found himself in a dilemma.
Beside Zheng Zai, there are thirty-five heroes in total, but the vocational lineup is unbalanced.
Seven Sword Heroes, Pastor Heroes, that is, nineteen Priests in total! And Shield Heroes, only three in total.
The rest are all Bow Heroes.
This lineup can't possibly tackle the Demon Kings because there are too few Shield Heroes. Even if all nineteen Pastor Heroes put forth their combined effort, it's impossible to substitute defensive power with healing capacity.
Zheng Zai was in a quandary.
All the heroes were troubled... They faced a choice, at the crossroads, which direction should they advance?
Undoubtedly, with the number of Demon Kings being twenty-three, all the heroes made a decision—
They couldn't win, absolutely could not win, against the Demon King; what they could do wasn't battle, but find ways to buy time.
"Which direction should we choose?" Due to everyone transforming into heroes, there was almost no difference in appearance.
However, everyone's wisdom hadn't improved, and Zheng Zai observed the surroundings, planning to have the Shepherd Heroes and Array Heroes try their best to sense distant energies.
After all, in terms of spiritual power, these two surpass other heroes.
But suddenly Zheng Zai found he couldn't speak.
"Damn... the negative effect of silent marathon is active. Damn it..."
"Younger Brother Wen is no longer by my side!"
This was undoubtedly the most despairing.
Zheng Zai's biggest trump card was Wen Xishu.
But now, Wen Xishu is not here. The few Sword Heroes present are all strangers.
Worse things were still happening.
"Go left." A Shepherd Hero said.
"Why should I listen to you?" A Bow Hero said.
The Bow Hero had a further view and thought they should go in the middle.
"Among us... could there be someone who has already defected to the Demon Kings?" A Sword Hero said.
This opened Pandora's box, and Zheng Zai knew... it was over, this group had no combat intention, already divided before encountering the Demon King. How would they fight?
What should have been collective action in choosing a direction turned into a self-proving conference.
Such is the nature of the weak, when there's a stronger presence outside, they subconsciously avoid the stronger and draw swords against the weaker.
For a time, the crossroads were bustling with noise.
Zheng Zai foresaw bad things were about to happen, yet at this moment, he couldn't separate from the group...
Because a lone hero would absolutely die.
He wished to utilize his abilities, dispel everyone's doubts, and stabilize the morale with convincing speech.
But Zheng Zai couldn't do this now.
And even more desperate was—
From the right passage, a gigantic creature had locked onto them.
...
...
Area Seven.
It's normal for there to be fainthearted warriors; in fact, such warriors are the most common.
But among four hundred or so people, there are always exceptions.
In Area Seven, an encounter erupted at the crossroads.
The heroes engaged in a fight with Demon King Ten.
With the efforts of nine Shield Heroes, twenty-two Bow Heroes gained a good output space and began shooting frantically!
More than thirty Priests frantically healed the Shield Heroes.
"Steel Armament!"
"Ultimate Block!"
"Thorny Body!"
The Shield Heroes continuously used skills to withstand the attacks of Demon King Ten.
Undoubtedly, this Demon King faced a warrior group that supersedes the Demon King in scale.
Particularly due to the combat power disparity, this Demon King encountered the largest, most willing-to-fight group of heroes.
Its luck was poor.
But it must be said that the Demon King's abilities were exceedingly powerful.
Constantly executing numerous abilities, Shield Heroes' shields repeatedly shattered, their armor corroded by green poison, their lives consistently reaching the bottom.
Several times, the Demon King almost breached their defenses, but couldn't withstand the largest group of Priests, frantically restoring health to the Shield Heroes.
Yet the Priests, one by one, were exhausted of their spiritual strength!
But their efforts were effective.
In Zone Seven, under the impact of dozens of Bow Heroes' profound meaning "Armor-Piercing Shot," the Demon King's body was riddled with wounds.
"The Demon King! Is not invincible!"
As long as warriors from the entire zone gather together, as long as no other Demon King shows up at this time!
Yes, the pace needs to accelerate, because if another Demon King appears, everyone will die.
There must be more violent output, the Shield Heroes must be able to stand in the front!
Shepherd Heroes, Shield Heroes, Bow Heroes, all began to ignite their fighting spirit.
