Chapter 67: 75 Secretly crossing the sea

Night Owl, who was thrown out, drew a parabola and flew towards the rushing crowd.

Whether it was knights or adventurers, everyone's eyes were focused on the shadow demon in the distance; no one cared about what would happen to the weak Night Owl falling into the crowd.

Except for her three teammates.

Third-tier magic—Wind Surge!

A strong wind wrapped in grass leaves blew the Night Owl, who was about to land, high up.

Gal, who was rushing forward, took advantage of the situation and jumped into mid-air. The muscles under his armor bulged, and he curled his body when he caught Night Owl. His shin armor plowed two deep grooves in the grass on the edge of the square, and he didn't let Night Owl suffer any more damage.

Nova ran over, pressed his palms together on Night Owl's broken hand, and the emerald-colored glow representing healing overflowed from between his fingers.

Night Owl didn't seem to have lost consciousness yet, and seeing a few teammates, she couldn't help but show a wry smile.

Nova stabilized her injury while angrily saying: "Are you an idiot? With so many experts present, do you need to show off? What for?"

Night Owl explained weakly: "Before... I would hide in the shadows even if I didn't encounter them, I thought that if I could be detected, it wouldn't be too strong..."

"Then you should have told us!"

"Too late, he was preparing to move at that time..."

"Sigh—" Nova could only focus on healing Night Owl.

Ivan floated up and looked towards the summoning array.

The thick fog turned into by the shadow demon accelerated suddenly, and thousands of twisted faces appeared in the pitch-black mist.

A holy knight just raised his tower shield and rushed over, but the mist wiped past the edge of the shield like a live snake.

The magic-breaking arrows shot hastily by three royal archers penetrated the mist, but were twisted into powder by the surging magic energy before touching the core.

"Holy Light Barrier!"

Brilliant gold light erupted in front of the priests, but the shadow demon suddenly split into seven ghost shadows, cutting into the array from different angles with black smoke.

A young priest closest to it suddenly covered his throat and knelt down; his shadow was pinching his own neck on the ground, trying to strangle the main body.

The barrier maintained together had a flaw, and before others could make a move to remedy it, the shadow demon drilled through.

The Archbishop was still maintaining the final fluctuation of the array and couldn't take care of it, while the gray-robed mage on the side made a move.

The oak staff embedded with gold magic crystals burst into dazzling light.

Eighth-tier magic—Light Prison!

Twelve giant swords condensed from light broke through the clouds and nailed the shadow demon's main body to the ground with the momentum of thunder.

In the surging thick fog, however, came the shadow demon's overlapping mocking voice: "Pointless resistance!"

The black mist imprisoned suddenly collapsed inward, and then exploded suddenly.

The magic energy shock wave shook the light swords into stardust, and the five priests closest to it sprayed blood from their ears and noses and fell backward.

Even the gray-robed mage staggered back half a step.

"Hahahaha!" Breaking through all obstacles, the shadow demon laughed wildly and swung its claws at the person in the array. "Go to hell, human hero!"

Clang—

A giant sword collided with the shadow demon's claws, actually resisting his power hard.

"You... you..."

He understood the hero summoning in detail.

The hero who just descended should only be LV1.

Even with some powerful divine gifts, there was no reason to master it so quickly.

Not to mention this guy who used a great sword to block him now, he didn't look like he used ability, but rather like he took the attack hard based on physical fitness.

The shadow demon's brain made of elements was running wildly.

"Trap...?"

"Yo! You black lump, didn't expect you to be quite smart!"

Duke Amara opposite showed an excited smile.

"It's a pity you're not an old bat, I've wanted to tear you apart for a long time."

At this time, the shadow demon had no heart to banter with him, his body shrank, and he wanted to escape.

The Archbishop in front of the array finally completed the final steps.

As the scepter pointed heavily on the ground, a circular light curtain rose from the array, trapping the shadow demon inside without any blind spots.

The shadow demon didn't know he had fallen into a big trap now.

What hero summoning, this was clearly a trap mixed with a teleportation array!

What's worse, another full-level powerhouse who had been hiding in the knight team rushed out at this time.

Most of the seven major combat forces of the United Kingdom appeared here!?

Just to kill him!

"Eleanor! I know you are here! Come out and help me! There is still a chance to escape now!"

Amara laughed wildly and swung the great sword into afterimages, greeting the shadow demon one after another.

The shadow demon was now determined to escape and was suppressed in the disadvantage.

He could only hope that Eleanor, who accepted the task together, would help him destroy the array from the outside, so that he could escape after paying a certain price!

But no matter how he roared, the vampire never appeared—he guessed this result...

"Eleanor! You (elemental profanity)..."

In the chaos, no one noticed a priest named Mena, who quietly retreated to the edge of the square against the flow of people.

Then slipped into the alley.

Fortunately, I was a step slow!

Otherwise, the one trapped to death would be me!

As for saving the shadow demon?

She was full to go and save her life, didn't she see that humans were so well prepared!

At worst, go back and get punished, nothing is more important than her own life!

Eleanor looked back for the last time.

What she saw was the shadow demon trapped in the light curtain, fighting four powerhouses of the same level alone, finally caught a flaw.

The shackle on his left arm was smashed to pieces, and the entire form was difficult to maintain.

Without any guilt, Eleanor turned into a bat and flew away quickly, enduring the slight weakness under the sun.

All four powerhouses noticed the aura when she transformed, but no one paid attention to her.

It was difficult to catch up, and eating the fat meat in front of them was the priority!

——

Western archipelago, on an uninhabited island near the mainland, several small boats were docked on the shore.

Few people knew that in the middle of the small island, there was a hidden basement.

At this time, a priest with nine priests had just completed the final arrangement.

On the bluestone floor, a summoning array that was not complicated for its purpose was drawn with rare materials.

A priest asked with some doubt: "Is this really okay? Is the array a bit too simple?"

The priest shook his head: "The array itself is not difficult, what is difficult has always been getting the permission of the Lord of Light. After all, summoning a hero relies on the power of God."

Answered the priest's doubt, and also said it to others.

Let them not be distracted during the prayer in a while, causing trouble.

The priest knelt down first, and the pious prayer came from everyone's mouth.

The summoning array glowed with pale gold as the prayer rose.

When the priest finished praying and looked up, two figures appeared in the halo—

A tall woman with blonde hair and green eyes, clutching a blood-stained short blade, frowning and looking around.

A middle-aged man with black hair, trousers half-down, sitting on a flush toilet, staring blankly at his crossed hands in contemplation.
