The knight in the abyss

Chapter 736 The Land of Devouring
Flo, who fell from the sky, tried to use its powerful bird claws to catch the elf who smelled very attractive, but suddenly found that he could not do so-some mysterious magical effect made it impossible to "attack the elf" into action.The demon tried to gather the will to fight the spell's effects, but the priest's conviction was stronger, forcing it to change its goal.

What Aramiel cast was a simple one-level spell: Sanctuary.The effect is that before anyone attacks the protected object of the spell, they must first defeat the caster of the protection spell in the confrontation of will, otherwise they can only change the attack target, or stand in place like a fool.As the agent of the gods in the world, the will of the priest is extremely strong. Even if the devil has natural magic resistance, it is difficult to gain any advantage in this kind of confrontation.

Of course, if the warded creature attacks, casts a spell affecting an enemy, or deals damage to any creature, the effect of the aegis ends.However, in the current situation, Aramiel knew that he didn't have to do anything, as long as he persisted for a while, there was someone more suitable than him in the team to kill this enemy.

The little Isa beside him was ready to evade, but this Flo demon didn't seem to be interested in the little girl, so he jumped over her and directly attacked Kara Lin - as a vampire, little Isa failed to provoke Arouses the demon's thirst for flesh and blood.

Lancelot, who was standing next to the scholar, naturally would not just sit idly by. With a flash of his figure, he was already in front of Karalin, and he swung upward with half a sword in his hand, sealing off the attacking route of the demon.

The cold iron blade collided with the hard bird's claws. Although the dive brought a terrifying momentum to the giant Flo, Lancelow blocked the blow with only physical strength, allowing the demon to attack. The sprint collapsed like a wave crashing against a rock.If the Qingyuan Jianmang was activated, the opponent would probably be cut in half on the spot, but Lancelot thought he could save the real yuan needed to do that.

Behind the demon, little Isa jumped lightly, and her figure flew into the air like a light swallow. The two short swords in her hands were precisely inserted into the joint between the wings and the body of the vulture demon's back. Under the action, he twisted fiercely.The demon immediately uttered a miserable scream, and turned back abruptly, but little Isa tightly held the short sword stuck in the enemy's body, turned half a circle in the air, and remained on the enemy's back, Let Flo's attack completely miss.

Before the opponent had time to make a new move, Lancelow's attack had already arrived.Like a poisonous snake, the long sword pierced the demon's ribs into its chest cavity, and then drew it back like lightning, but this short moment was enough to put it to death.

The battle wasn't over yet, with the giantized Brutal still grappling with his opponent, but Lancelot was sure it was only a matter of time before the dwarves won.Not far from him, the demon that was first hit by Karaline fell into a big pit on the ground. The big pit was like the feeding organ of some kind of monster, and it closed quickly amidst rumbling noises, and it was about to be delivered to the door. The incoming prey is completely engulfed.

"Oh, damn it." Karaline looked palely at the place where the vlo was gone, "This place is really amazing..."

After seeing that scene, everyone wanted to end the battle as soon as possible. Everyone rushed forward and tore the dwarven enemy to pieces in an instant.Feeling the slight vibration coming from under their feet, everyone's expressions changed, and they ran away into the distance. Lancelot even picked up Brutal who was still panting, and rushed to the team in a few steps. at the forefront.

And behind them, the ground where everyone was standing a few seconds ago cracked, and several big mouths made of mud appeared out of thin air, like a vortex on the sea, swallowing the steaming demon corpses on the ground, and it was like a landslide. Extending towards the direction where everyone is, it seems that there is a huge shark swimming in the ocean of mud underground.

Fortunately, everyone was faster, and after running hundreds of feet in one breath, the ground finally calmed down.Everyone gradually slowed down, but they all looked like frightened birds, ready to run away at any moment.

"This is probably the worst place I've ever been to." Aramir put her hands on her knees, but still maintained the elf's unique elegance, "What did Tijana say? The lord of this floor is still there Sleeping, so it shouldn't be too dangerous?"

"We're all still alive, and no one was injured, right?" Lancelot put down the dwarf who was biting his lip, and the latter looked like he was about to vomit, "'Eternal Hunger' Tullagrass, What kind of existence is this guy? Why is its territory so... weird?"

"Weirdness is the normal state in the abyss. Don't be misled by the state of the Wanyuan Plain." Kara Lin shook his head, "About the lords of this level... let's talk while walking? The feeling of standing still that's too bad……"

"Okay." Lancelot nodded, "If I say run in a while, you will immediately sprint forward with all your strength, understand?"

"understand!"

"Believe in my early warning ability, I will be fine." Lancelot put his half sword on his back again, and walked forward, "Dear Kara Lin, please share your knowledge with us..."

"Countless powerful lords have been born in the abyss. We have all heard of 'Devil Prince' Demogorgon, 'Undead Lord' Orcus, 'Lord of Gnolls' Yeenoghu, and 'Lord of Howling Beasts' Buffy Mente’s name. But these are Tanar’ri demons, the product of mortal souls coming to the abyss.” Kara Lin pulled out a short stick less than a foot long from his magic backpack, and swung it vigorously in the air Flicking it, the short stick turned into a trekking pole more than four feet long, "Before that, the abyss was the world of Obiris demons..."

"So Tulagras is an ancient Obiris lord?" Lancelot asked curiously, "Because he refused the leadership after Chaos, he was driven from the Plain of Myriad Abyss to this level?"

"Most of the Obiris demons that have continued to this day are indeed in that situation, but Tulagrass is an exception. It appeared after Tanari had already ruled the abyss." The scholar followed the human knight step by step. , carefully avoiding some suspicious bumps on the ground, "If the tanar'ri are just a distorted reflection of their mortal past, then the obyris are the angry, bloodthirsty, physiological creatures of the abyss itself. Need... at least that's the prevailing opinion in the Dark Order, and Tulagras is the proof of that, a malevolent being, a mass of physical chaos, a manifestation of the endless hunger of the abyss .”

"It doesn't sound like a demon, it's more like some kind of natural disaster." Aramir curled his lips, "The abyss is full of such terrible things...so why did it fall into a deep sleep? A group of legendary adventurers By?"

"No." The scholar shook his head, "The answer sounds a bit unbelievable, but it was indeed killed by the deadly enemies Demogorgon and Orcas..."
