Shepherd Tantra

Chapter 298 I’ll burn them
Seeing the people of Noble Red gradually gathering, Aiwass, who was hiding in the priest's house, narrowed his eyes slightly.

...There are a little too many people.

He counted a little and found that there were at least 30 people wearing red robes.They haven't even fully emerged from the forest yet.

After these red-robed men left the forest, they restored order without any command at all——

The moment they came out, they were a little noisy because of their excitement, but they quickly quieted down and spontaneously formed a square of spellcasters more than one meter apart.And immediately started to perform the ritual in a row, ensuring that anyone who performs the ritual has a companion who can monitor the surroundings at all times.

Just looking at this sense of order, Aiwass felt a thump in his heart.

——This is not the elite force of the Noble Red, right?

The batch they sent when they attacked the Supervisory Bureau already looked very professional.But they are obviously not as elite as this group of people.

Aiwass knew that there was indeed a regular army within Noble Red.But he didn't know much, after all, Noble Red didn't make it into the book.

The giant prince Wolfram himself does not know how to train people... After all, the reason why the giants were defeated by the knights was because the giants had long been accustomed to their own strength. There was no battle formation or coordination at all. They just fight on their own.

But within the Noble Red there are air cavalry who defected.He brought a systematic training and command plan to Noble Red - Aiwass had done this side mission and had a little impression of it.But the whole thing was skipped, so I don’t know the details.

I only vaguely remember that this person was a student of the Great Guardian, and he seemed to have defected because of jealousy or something, feeling unfair.

As a player at the time, Aiwass didn't think it was anything.But now he really feels the pressure——

Demonologists trained on an army scale are very difficult to deal with even at the third level.After all, Demonologists are essentially two units, one is a demon and the other is a scholar... This means that these Demonologists can turn into a group of spellcasters at any time with a large number of fearless front-line human shields.

The only good news is that the giant leading the team is only a little over three meters tall.

This shows that either his bloodline is impure, or his level of power path is not high.The latter shows that his status in the giant kingdom is not high... then he should not have mastered the special mysterious skills secretly passed down by the royal family, nor should he have divine blood.

Aiwass remembered that the giant prince Wolfram was an advanced professional wizard of the ritual mage.He is truly divine and very difficult to deal with.

As the Noble Red is an association dominated by demonologists, they must have at least one high-ranking demonologist.

——If nothing else, it should be him.

A pure demonologist is better than a former high-level warrior who works part-time as a high-level demonologist - although the giants themselves are quite fleshy, if there is another high-level melee professional level, Aiwass really doesn't know how to deal with them. .

Seeing Aiwass frowning, Lily gently tugged on the corner of his clothes.

"Master," Lily whispered, "How about I assassinate him directly..."

Aiwass turned back suddenly and glanced at Lily in astonishment.

——How dare you?

When did Lily become so radical?

"...He is very likely to be at the fifth level," he said with a bit of toothache, "You'd better take it easy. Shadow Demon may be able to help you kill him, but he may not be able to bring you out again..."

Lily has not yet completed the second advancement ceremony to adapt to the path and reached the third level.Even with the priority bonus of the equipment on her body, it is impossible to assassinate a fifth-level transcendent with strong vitality in a group of regular soldiers and then return safely.

Even counting the Flame-Contrary Butterfly, he didn't have the confidence to save Lily again.

"But," Lily frowned, "if we don't take the initiative..."

Through the window, they could see the demonologists arranging some kind of ritual.

They first summoned their own demons to their side, and then began to carefully strengthen their status.

——Aiwass recognized it, it was the devil's madness ritual.

They first turn the demons into madness and make them lose their minds, and then use the power of the contract to enslave them.This is a mysterious technique used to control a demon stronger than oneself.

This made Aiwass a little anxious——

What are these people here for?Are you also looking for the Book of Dharma?

I hope Haina and Sherlock hide and don't come looking for them at this time.

Otherwise, with their strength, they would be in trouble when meeting these demonologists...

But at this moment, a person in the demonologist phalanx suddenly saw Aiwass.

His eyes, covered by the red robe and still shining with scarlet brilliance, met Aiwass's eyes.

Avas was suddenly frightened, subconsciously pulling Lily and starting to retreat quickly.

Lily also realized something and began to arrange layers of white silk threads in the room.

About two seconds later, a black thunder that stretched and shortened like a worm suddenly shattered the glass and exploded in the room!

After it hit the ground, it shattered into countless fragmented black electric lights, and the corrosive aura from the dark attribute blasted the ground and walls into cobweb-like purple cracks.Fortunately, those threads blocked part of it, otherwise it would have splashed onto Aiwass.

Aiwass just breathed a sigh of relief, and then another hot fireball came through the window.

It shines with platinum brilliance and steams with heat.It began to expand violently the moment it entered the room, and at this time, it was too late for Aiwass to think of a way to summon the Paraflame Butterfly.Aiwass subconsciously turned around and hugged Lily, threw her to the ground, and shouted loudly: "Shadow Demon!"

The shadow under Lily suddenly expanded, and the Shadow Demon emerged from it, forming a semi-arc shadow shield, blocking them back.

The fireball that penetrated into the living room exploded with a bang, shattering the walls and floor as well as the tables and cabinets in the living room!
The whole ground was shaking and shaking.The scorching flames began to spread in the room, and the thick black smoke blackened the walls.

Aiwass easily identified these two spells.

——This is the Rotting Bone Thunder and Fireball Technique!
The former is an armor-breaking ritual spell that can directly burn through metal armor and penetrate short walls and barriers... The ritual materials used are the three-section spine of an old man and the bile of a young girl.

The latter is a classic explosive spell.

Aiwass is very familiar with the power of fireball, because Aiwass's "explosive" flame butterfly is equivalent to a fireball.

However, fireball is a mage's spell, and demonologists usually lack fire-attribute mana so they cannot cast it.Therefore, this was probably the demon he contracted launching a series of bombing attacks on his target.

And after being hit head-on by the fireball, Shadow Demon also let out a muffled sound.

It is not a phantom that is good at defense in the first place - if it were not to protect Aiwass and Lily, its normal way of evasion would be to hide in the shadows.

"...I'm going to kill them, Aiwass!"

Shadow Demon let out a low roar: "It's useless to stop you!"

The flames did no harm to it, but the light emitted when the fireball exploded made Shadow Demon noticeably uncomfortable.It's probably the same as throwing a ball of feces into a human's face - not very harmful, but extremely insulting.

Perhaps due to the influence of the ongoing demonic madness ritual, the Shadow Demon's aggressiveness has obviously become stronger.

"Ah, so do I."

Aiwass narrowed his eyes slightly, a faint purple light looming: "I won't stop you..."

He just glanced at it from a distance, and was blasted twice with spells...even with a last-ditch blow.If he hadn't reacted quickly, he might have been seriously injured.

Originally, Aiwass was still thinking about getting out of the way.

After all, the fifth level is really not easy to mess with.

He himself wasn't afraid...but it would be bad if he angered them and caused trouble for Yingjia Village.

——But when these noble red demonologists took the initiative to attack him, Aiwass suddenly realized the identities of these people.

There's a reason they're like street rats in Avalon.These demonologists had experience in massacring villages. Even the "Da Zi" group had just massacred a village before they came to Glass Island.

For these demonologists who have no taboos, human beings are just walking ritual materials... They have become accustomed to slaughtering villages without resistance to replenish ritual materials.And now the extraordinary person with the fifth energy level on his back will not have any scruples.

Aiwass had been living on Glass Island before.Until the attack on the Supervisory Bureau, there had basically never been any major disasters, and Noble Red had always been a man with his tail between his legs on the Glass Island.So he didn't have any particularly obvious feelings about it, and he didn't think they were that scary.I just think they are just a bunch of clowns.

But now that the fireball came down, Aiwass suddenly understood.They had no intention of keeping them alive, and it didn't matter whether they provoked them or not.

Aiwass finally realized for himself what the "village massacre" that he had only read about in game texts and newspaper texts meant.

——These people are not clowns, but real demons.

"……Ah."

Aiwass's pupils gradually ignited with purple flames, and the purple in them became brighter and brighter.

"A giant at the fifth level. More than 40 regular soldiers at the third level or above...it's quite a challenge."

"They're all just scum——"

The Shadow Demon's increasingly furious and malicious voice rumbled in his mind: "Kill them, Aiwass! Rush over and kill them!"

"——Quiet, Shadow Demon."

Aiwass's cold voice sounded: "Don't order me. I am your master."

Between the thumb and index finger of his right hand, a pure red card appeared out of thin air like magic.

A butterfly pattern is outlined with black lines on it. At this moment, the butterfly above can't wait to start flapping its wings.

"——The Flame-Contrary Butterfly."

Aiwass whispered her name: "Come to kill."

"As you wish, brother."

A voice with echoes, ethereal and cold sounded from Aiwass's heart: "I will burn them."

Then, a stream of flames flowed out from the center of the card——

　update completed!
　　Let’s do double updates, triple updates are a bit harmful to the body...
