Chapter 358: Breaking
This giant Demon looked with full suspicion toward the direction where its mace was, yet what met its eyes was the angry gaze of Vulkan, who was staring straight at it.
Seeing this tiny Human, no bigger than a speck, dare to stare back at it so boldly, a nameless fire suddenly surged in the large Demon's heart; it raised its thick, powerful foot and viciously stomped down toward Vulkan.
Facing the attack of this large Demon, Vulkan took a deep breath and swung his right hand, which was clenched into a fist, with force.
This punch, possessing the momentum of a thunderbolt and carrying the power of a collapsing mountain, struck heavily against the large foot that was about to step on him.
Accompanied by a dull, loud thud, the large foot that had been stomping down with such aggressive momentum was forced back by Vulkan's punch at an extremely bizarre angle.
At the same time, the large Demon's body swayed violently from the impact of the counterforce, its center of gravity instantly lost, and it began to stagger and stumble backward, its entire body falling back into the Hell Gate, with only one foot remaining exposed outside.
Seeing this scene, Pu Lie's body could not help but tremble; what kind of monster was this? Could it be an Alien Race he had never seen before? No wonder they grew so fast; that Yingzhou actually raised an Alien Race! To think he kept claiming he stood on the side of Humans, he was actually a hypocrite!
Now, Pu Lie only felt the fear coming from his body, making him tremble uncontrollably.
Subsequently, Pu Lie's gaze turned to the burly man wearing silver-white Armor, who was using Spiritual Power to forcibly close the Hell Gate. Seeing that the Hell Gate was already half-closed, Pu Lie had already guessed that the outcome of this time would not be as he had imagined; the soldiers summoned by Yingzhou, the offspring of Yingzhou, the strength they displayed was enough to allow Humans to continue to fight against the Alien Race.
As Vulkan twisted the neck of the last Demon, he watched the Demon's corpse turn into a wisp of Black Qi, and the Hell Gate was also forcibly closed by Dabeiwenqiao using psionic power.
The moment the Hell Gate closed, Dabeiwenqiao only felt that his psionic power had been exhausted, making it impossible to support himself in continuing to use psionic spells, and furthermore, forcibly closing the Hell Gate consumed not only his psionic power, but maintaining the output of psionic power also consumed a significant amount of his physical strength.
"Dabeiwenqiao, how do you feel?"
Seeing Dabeiwenqiao supporting his body with the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd, Vulkan spoke in a deep, resonant tone without a hint of arrogance.
"I am fine, Lord Vulkan, thank you for your concern."
Dabeiwenqiao shook his head and answered in a solemn tone.
Seeing that Dabeiwenqiao was not in serious trouble, Vulkan came before Pu Lie, who was being controlled by the Modian soldiers. Although the anger in his heart had not yet subsided, considering his little sister and grandmother, Vulkan took a deep breath to calm himself down.
"Take this Demon, we are returning to the Training Camp."
"Yes! Lord Vulkan!"
Vulkan turned back to look at Dabeiwenqiao, who was standing motionless in place, and asked.
"Dabeiwenqiao, what are your plans?"
Just as Dabeiwenqiao was about to speak, he suddenly felt a powerful psionic fluctuation erupt from the Inner City, accompanied by the same Black Qi that the previous Demons carried. Looking up at the Black Qi that had been shrouding the sky, Dabeiwenqiao said.
"I intend to return to the Inner City to take a look; Taigehe'er should have discovered the Demons in the Inner City. The aftermath of the battle just now has already reached here, proving that the strength of the Demons in the Inner City is not to be underestimated."
Upon hearing Dabeiwenqiao say this, Vulkan immediately changed his mind.
"Then we shall go to the Inner City as well. Now that the crisis in the Outer City has been resolved, let us go together to resolve the crisis in the Inner City; this way, we can also reduce the pressure on Father."
Hearing Vulkan say this, Dabeiwenqiao did not refuse and expressed his gratitude.
"Thank you for your help, Lord Vulkan."
"Father often taught me that the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. If one's ability grows but one does not shoulder the corresponding responsibility, then that ability is meaningless. Only by standing with the people can Human Civilization stand up again!"
Hearing Vulkan's words, Dabeiwenqiao did not answer, but silently led the way in front.
But in his heart, he had already committed these words to memory, for those were words the Emperor had spoken.
Outer City Training Camp.
At this time, many Outer City residents had already run here to hide from the Demons' attacks. A sturdy youth, only 1.2 meters tall, was holding a Power Sword, eliminating the invading Demons one by one.
Kusake had originally intended to flee this area as well, but after seeing that very few of the residents who wanted to flee this area actually made it out, and most importantly, the Demons were not just in this one area, he could not guarantee his own safety after fleeing to other areas.
Just at this moment, Kusake passed by the camp where he received training every day and discovered that the number of Demons here was relatively smaller than in other places.
Furthermore, many residents were fleeing inside. Just as a middle-aged woman fell to the ground and was about to be pierced through the chest by a Demon chasing behind her, several Laser Beams directly hit this Demon.
This Demon was slightly different from other Demons; it was covered in a suit of Armor. After the Laser Beams hit the Armor, the Armor rippled with Black Qi, and then it quickly repaired the Armor broken by the Laser Beams.
This Demon was merely distracted by these Laser Beams, and the movement of its Claw stabbing down paused slightly. Seizing the opportunity, Kusake immediately leaped behind this Demon and used a Large Wrench he carried with him to strike the Demon on the head.
The hard, solid sensation made Kusake feel as if he had struck a giant rock; it did not budge at all, and the counterforce even made his wrist feel somewhat numb.
The Demon, feeling that its head had been struck by something, turned back to look, only to find Kusake holding a Large Wrench in both hands, his eyes revealing fear.
This Human was clearly full of fear, yet still dared to launch an attack on it; this was interesting. Just as the Demon turned its head to kill Kusake first, a Power Sword pierced through its chest, and then a youth, who did not look big but had bulging veins on his arms, grabbed one of the Demon's horns.
"Ignorant Human, my horn is my hardest weapon; you actually dare to grab it? Then I will use..."
Before the Demon could finish its sentence, following a "Crack!" sound, the ensuing sharp pain left the Demon instantly stunned. Watching this tiny Human before it actually break off its horn, it roared in anger.
"I will kill you in the most torturous way!"
