Chapter 684: Steel Torrent VS Demon Swarm (2)

Amidst the deafening artillery fire of the Armageddon Steel Legion's Leman Russ Tanks, a small detachment of elite Demons led by a Demon General broke through the intersecting fire net on the flank, roaring as they charged toward a relatively weak infantry position.

Bloodthirsty fury burned in their eyes, and hellfire burned upon their weapons.

The leading Demon General was particularly arrogant; its massive body was covered in crude, blood-colored plate armor, and the giant axe in its hand was twice the size of an ordinary Demon's, its blade burning with ominous red flames.

It saw the few Armageddon Soldiers ahead, who were fighting hard while relying on sandbags, and let out a shrill, manic laugh.

"Hahaha! Weak Humans! Use your blood to please me!"

The group of Demons behind it also let out echoing hisses, their charge gaining even more momentum.

In their eyes, these Armageddon infantrymen, lacking heavy weapon cover and armed only with a few Laser Guns, were nothing more than lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

An Armageddon Soldier looked at the Demon General exuding an ominous aura, swallowed hard, gripped the Laser Gun in his hands, and let out a roar.

"For the Emperor!!!"

Seeing this, the other Armageddon Soldiers also shouted and opened fire on the approaching Demon group.

Laser Beams continuously struck the Demons, but the enemy's numbers were clearly greater, and many elite Demons used magic to deflect the Laser Beam fire.

Just as the Demons were less than fifty meters from the infantry position, and the Demon General had even raised its giant axe high, preparing to deliver the first lethal strike.

Silver radiance descended!

Three silver figures instantly rushed out from the flank of the infantry line, appearing between the infantry position and the charging Demon group!

The Holy Shield Power Armor on the three was dazzling in the dim battlefield, and the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberds gripped in their hands had pure, reassuring Psionic Arcs leaping across their blades.

Their appearance caused the charging Demon group to subconsciously falter; they felt the dangerous aura emanating from the three tall Humans clad in silver-white Armor.

The Demon General's scarlet pupils constricted sharply—that silver Armor and that Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd wreathed in Psionic Arcs!

An instinctive loathing for pure psionic energy and a trace of... imperceptible dread flashed through its consciousness.

But it was immediately submerged by an even stronger rage and arrogance.

"Hah! Just the three of you, and you think you can stop Demons?!"

The Demon General let out a disdainful roar, believing the others were merely putting on a show.

"Tear them apart! Turn their silver Armor into scrap metal!"

It did not stop its advance, but instead accelerated, its giant axe whistling as it tore through the air, striking first at Fannidike, who stood in the center!

The elite Demons behind it also howled as they lunged at the other two.

Hum—!

A Psionic Barrier instantly unfolded before Fannidike, thin as a cicada's wing, yet indestructible!

Clang—!!!!

The Demon General's sure-kill axe strike slammed heavily into the Psionic Barrier!

The scene of shattered silver Armor and flying flesh and blood that it had anticipated did not occur!

There was only a dull, heart-stopping boom, and the splashing of filthy sparks instantly purified by the barrier!

It was as if the giant axe had struck the very foundation of the planet; the terrifying recoil traveled up the axe handle, shaking the Demon General's arm numb and splitting the webbing between its thumb and forefinger!

For the first time, a look of incredulous shock appeared on its hideous face.

"Wha...?!"

In the exact millisecond that the Demon General's attack was blocked and it fell into a brief moment of rigidity, Ganjiedake's figure moved so fast that he left only a silver afterimage in the eyes of mortals!

He ignored the several elite Demons lunging at him, his target set directly on a Demon wizard behind the Demon General that was currently condensing a Black Flame Fireball!

Seeing Ganjiedake rush over, a hideous grin just appeared on the fire demon's ugly face.

"Foolish! Taste—ugh!"

Its incantation didn't even finish!

Ganjiedake's Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd thrust out rapidly, the tip wreathed in highly condensed purifying psionic energy, piercing with absolute precision into the Demon wizard's open mouth!

There was no explosion, only a faint "sizzle" sound.

The Black Flame Fireball the Demon wizard was condensing instantly extinguished, and the interior of its entire head was purified and vaporized from the inside out by pure psionic energy!

The massive body stood stiff and motionless, then collapsed limply.

Ganjiedake did not even spare it a second glance, a wisp of rapidly dissipating black smoke trailing from the halberd tip as he withdrew it.

With a flicker of his figure, he had already appeared before another elite Demon attempting to ambush Fannidike's flank.

Facing the elite Demon lunging at him, Chamaidaohan let out a low growl.

"Die! Alien!"

The Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd was swept out by him!

Dazzling psionic radiance erupted from the halberd shaft, forming a fan-shaped shockwave!

Boom!!!

The two elite Demons in the lead collided with it head-on!

Their Armor and tough flesh were as fragile as paper before this torrent of pure power!

The sound of bones shattering rang out like popping beans; the two elite Demons were swept flying dozens of meters away in mid-air, their limbs twisted and deformed, filthy blood spraying wildly, and by the time they hit the ground, they were nothing but unrecognizable piles of meat!

The elite Demons following behind were scared out of their wits by this terrifying scene; their charging footsteps came to a screeching halt, their eyes filled with fear.

"No! This power... how could it be Human?"

The Demon General had just recovered from the shock of Fannidike's incredible Psionic Barrier when it witnessed the terrifying scene of the Demon wizard being killed in an instant and its subordinates being swept into piles of meat by a single strike!

Its scarlet pupils, filled with rage, were instantly completely occupied by an emotion called "fear"!

It finally understood that it had kicked an unimaginably hard iron plate!

"No! Impossible! What are you..."

Its terrified roar was only half-uttered!

Fannidike's Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd moved!

There were no flashy moves, just an extremely simple vertical slash from top to bottom!

The Psionic Arc coiling around the halberd blade surged instantly!

The Demon General instinctively raised its Hellfire great axe to block, its eyes still carrying a final trace of luck and madness.

"Block it! Block it for me!"

Crack—squelch!

The great axe wreathed in Hellfire snapped in response before the Heavenly Punishment Demon-Cleaving Halberd, which was infused with pure psionic energy!

The halberd blade's momentum did not slacken, cleaving down from the very center of the Demon General's crown without any obstruction!

Time seemed to freeze for an instant.

The Demon General's hideous expression froze in extreme terror and disbelief.

The next moment, a straight blue line spread from the top of its head down to its crotch.

Swish!

Its body split neatly into two halves along the blue line, with Psionic Arcs dancing continuously over it!

The two halves of the corpse rapidly disintegrated and dissipated as they fell, leaving only two shallow scorch marks on the ground that radiated a faint aura of purification.
