Chapter 1386: The Living Dead

Their footsteps advanced bit by bit, charging toward the city gate of Dark City.

Seeing the demon army charge over, Lord Slayer, standing atop the city wall, could not help but knit his brows slightly, a solemn look appearing on his face.

"Move out!"

The moment Lord Slayer William Joels' voice fell, countless wizards and witches abruptly began chanting immensely powerful magical incantations.

In an instant, the sky was filled with countless multicolored magical runes flickering in midair.

Those magical runes, each one flashing with magical light, instantly wove themselves into an incomparably vast net across the sky.

This net looked just like a spiderweb, enveloping the entire heavens and earth.

Then, with a sudden sweep, this spiderweb hurled itself viciously toward the demon army in a devastating bombardment.

Rumble rumble rumble…

In a flash, endless flames ignited across the great net, forming a raging inferno that swept down toward the demons below.

Gazing at the raging inferno, countless demons' faces revealed expressions of terror.

But the Demon God, unhurried, called out to the demon wizards beside him: Demon God Shield.

The instant his voice fell, an incomparably massive shield instantly materialized above their heads.

The Demon God Shield firmly protected all the demons, leaving the flames unable to harm them in the slightest.

And after the Demon God Shield had shielded the demons, the Demon God gave an order.

Kill them all, slaughter those lowly ants! The Demon God roared, and instantly, before him, the entire demon army surged into action. Brandishing their great demon blades, they hacked madly toward the direction of Dark City's magical barrier.

Boom boom boom… boom boom boom.

Under the clash of the great blades in those soldiers' hands, wave after wave of dull, violent collision sounds reverberated ceaselessly throughout all of Dark City.

Seeing this, Lord Slayer William Joels' brows drew tightly together, a shadow crossing his face—clearly worried by the frenzied actions of those demon soldiers.

It could be seen that, beneath the relentless assault of countless demons, the magical array began to tremble continuously, even producing sounds like glass shattering.

Hearing the sound of shattering glass, Lord Slayer William Joels' heart twitched several times. The information fed back from the magical array had already told him that the magical barrier would soon be unable to hold, and was very likely to be destroyed.

Beside him, Princess Feifeng Todd Nelson turned his gaze toward Lord Slayer and asked in a low voice.

What should we do next? Should we reinforce the magical array's protective power? Otherwise, it won't be long before the array is broken.

Todd Nelson's words made Lord Slayer William Joels' eyes shift slightly.

He did not answer Todd Nelson immediately, but instead raised his head and looked toward the Demon God standing at the center of the demon horde in the distance.

No rush. Since they want to break through, let them break through. Princess Feifeng, begin preparing the next step. What comes next will be the most terrifying sight for the demons. Lord Slayer laughed coldly, watching the demon soldiers frantically attacking the magical barrier in the distance, a thick chill surfacing in his eyes.

Yes! Princess Feifeng Todd Nelson nodded, immediately began issuing orders, instructing the surrounding mages and witches to make the corresponding preparations.

It could be seen that they set down the staffs in their hands and pressed both palms against the ground.

As their hands made contact, rings of ripples appeared on the ground.

Buzz buzz buzz…

With the contact of their hands, countless magical array patterns appeared on the ground. Then the patterns from their hands swiftly merged into a dazzling white radiance, and as this radiance fused, the surrounding air seemed to be drawn in, gathering toward the white radiance and swiftly converging within it.

Following that, this radiance spread rapidly outward in all directions, sweeping up everything in its surroundings.

What magic is this?

Gazing at that white radiance, all the surrounding demons widened their eyes, staring at the white radiance with looks of utter shock.

This magic is so strange—it doesn't seem to belong to any elemental fluctuation. I can feel my magical power draining away, as if it's being sucked away… A demon soldier could not help crying out in alarm, his eyes wide open, staring at that radiance in utter terror.

Me too. Another demon soldier cried out in alarm as well, then his face turned pale and his body could not help but tremble slightly.

In fact, it wasn't just those two—every demon present could not help but undergo a drastic change in expression.

Looking at that white radiance, a deep-seated fear welled up in everyone's heart.

Roar~!

Before the fear in their hearts had faded, an angry shout suddenly rang out across the entire demon army.

At that moment, a figure appeared in everyone's mind—a corpse.

Its eyes were wide open, its face hideously contorted, its mouth gaping wide as if it had just eaten something.

That great bloody maw gaped wide, and within it rows upon rows of sharp fangs glinted ceaselessly, sending a chill through anyone who laid eyes on them.

Under everyone's gaze, it slowly extended its tongue, the tip of it lightly licking within that great maw—the sight utterly revolting.

Seeing this, every demon gasped sharply, all of them stunned dumb by what was unfolding before their eyes.

And these living dead seemed to have caught the scent of the living. In an instant, they began, like jackals, wolves, tigers, and leopards, to fling themselves wildly at the surrounding demon army in a frenzy of slaughter.

Roar~!

Seeing those living dead pounce on the surrounding demon army, the demon soldiers instantly snapped out of their shock and terror, scrambling backward in an attempt to evade the living dead's pursuit.

But no matter how fast they were, how could they possibly outpace those living dead?

In the blink of an eye, they were tackled to the ground by the living dead, who opened their bloody maws and bit straight down—brains bursting, fresh blood spraying. The scene was utterly blood-soaked. Watching the demon soldiers being torn into chunks of flesh by the living dead, the surrounding demon soldiers all gasped sharply, their eyes carrying a trace of horror and dread, their faces filled with an intense look of utter disbelief.
