Chapter 158: Chapter 133: Entering the Battlefield_2


    Although they had confronted the evil dragon before, they had not faced hundreds of giant dragons at once. However, the intimidation brought by hundreds of giant dragons still paled inparison to the terror emanating from this all-epassing demon army that seemed to shroud the whole world.


    “Numerous as they are, they can still be annihted.”


    If Duanmu Huai dared toe, he must have already made preparations. He had learned from the Night Guard that the three wizards of the Dea Association, once affiliated with the Yajinians, were the ones causing havoc on this. Using their power, they maintained the passage from subspace, allowing demons to reach this world from subspace. If they defeated these three wizards, the passage would be destroyed, and most of the demons would have to return to hell.


    Well, this is simr to the methods used by the believers of chaos in the Imperial. Or it could be said that all chaos believers in the universe do this — they first use various rituals to blur the boundaries between reality and subspace. Then, they can summon demons in subspace into the real world for a massacre, and while the demons are ughtering, they expand the affected area, eventually integrating the whole into subspace.


    However, besides the chaos believers, the Imperial had various deities and their devotees to hold the Northern Line, denying the chaos savages any further opportunities. Bartoni and Zhen Dan also blocked these chaos believers in the pr regions. So there, while no major issues arose, small problems kept popping up.


    But this was different. Duanmu Huai guessed that this likely followed a materialistic scientific path, probably not believing in any gods or monsters. Perhaps even if someone was holding a chaos ritual right under their noses, they would think it was just a religious dance — it would be a surprise if they didn’t capsize.


    “There are two things we need to do.”


    Duanmu Huai quickly provided the answer.


    “First, protect the remaining power of this, then kill those three wizards to dispel the hell’s assimtion of this.”


    “So, where do we start?”


    Since Duanmu Huai had made his decision, no one else would object. Ann was even eager to get started instantly.


    N?v(el)B\\jnn


    “Hmm……”


    Duanmu Huai nced at the map before him again, then turned his attention to a steel building — it looked like a Steel Fortress, which was currently under attack by demons. The turrets outside were pouring bullets at the demons like crazy, but unfortunately, the people of this world apparently hadn’t expected they would fight demons when designing their weapons.


    Based on the current situation, could this be considered a resistance group?


    “We start here.”


    Duanmu Huai pointed to the location on the screen and then turned to leave.


    “Everyone, prepare for battle!!”


    Meanwhile, in the steel fortress below, the battle had reached its most critical situation.


    “Fire! Fire! Fire!!!”


    The soldier holding the firearm roared orders and pulled the trigger. The bullets rained out like a storm, crushing arge number of demons. But very quickly, the demons from behind surged forward again, and at the same time, a vibration suddenly rang out from under their feet.


    Then, as if confirming the soldiers’ premonitions, a scream came from the radio.


    “Report, the enemy has broken through the western defense line! The western defense line has fallen!!”


    “Damn……”


    “Commander, what now!?”


    Hearing the sound from the radio, the soldiers all looked up at the man before them, who was gritting his teeth, hesitating for a moment.


    “Keep fighting! Detonate the minefield on the western defense line! No matter what, we can’t let these monsters get into the fortress!!”


    “Yes!!”


    Soon, with themand given, a thunderous bang came from a distance, followed by a surge of fire and smoke rising into the sky. Themander turned his head to nce at the scene before swiftly drawing his gaze back.


    “Keep fighting!!!”


    For the people of this world, the battle taking ce before their eyes was nothing short of a nightmare.


    These demons, whose origin was unknown, seemed inexhaustible. Human attacks were nearly powerless against their wicked strength. However, this didn’t mean that humans had lost the will to resist. Even though the demons had upied more than half of Earth, and almost sixty percent of areas had fallen, the remaining humans still united and formed the “ARC” – the Armed Reaction Alliance, dedicated to fighting against the demons. They excavated numerous underground cities and relocated all civilians there for refuge.


    This steel fortress standing before them was one of the entrances to an underground city. If the fortress were to fall, the demons would directly invade the underground city. By then, the civilians beneath would bepletely ughtered by these damned monsters. This was something they absolutely had to prevent!


    “Bang!!!”


    However, just when the soldiers were about to engage in battle, the wall next to them suddenly cracked open. A gigantic demon charged in aggressively like a wild beast. The soldiers werepletely caught off guard by the demons’ ability to prate the thick walls. They were in chaos. Before they could counterattack, the huge demon had already stormed into their ranks.


    The defence line copsed instantly. Several soldiers were sent flying by the demon and screamed as they hurtled through the air before crashing to the ground. The demon didn’t stop there. It roared and swung its ws, killing all nearby soldiers within the blink of an eye.


    “You… damned monster!!!”


    Seeing his men being in, themander’s eyes turned red with rage. He picked up a shotgun and fired it at the giant demon before him.


    “Bang! Bang! Bang!!!”


    Powerful bullets hit the demon, but it seemed to feel no pain. Instead, the demon turned toward themander and roared. With a wave of its w, a strong gust blew themander off his feet, sending him crashing into the wall before he fell to the ground.


    “Damn… it…”


    With a burning pain in his back, themander felt like he had lost control of his body. All he could still vaguely hear was the dying screams of soldiers and the sound of gunshots. However, even these sounds drowned in the shadow falling from the sky.


    “—————————!!!”


    The noise, like a cannon exploding, was deafening and nearly deafened themander. After a while, he managed to open his eyes and look ahead. Then, themander saw a strange metallic object standing in front of the ruined hall. Underneath it was the mangled corpse of the demon.


    What… what is that?


    Themander’s mind was nk. He looked at the odd metal object,pletely baffled.


    Could it be a shell?


    “Psssh——————!!!”


    Just as themander was perplexed, the strange object suddenly emitted white smoke and cracked open. A giant figure wielding a war hammer stepped out. Seeing this dark figure emerge, the demons that were about to attack abruptly stopped. They looked uncertainly at the dark figure. To his astonishment, themander detected a hint of fear in the demons’ reactions.


    Could these demons also feel fear?


    “Whirr—————!!!”


    Before themander could process the situation, multiple circr blue portals suddenly appeared in the air around them. He saw numerous entities, dressed in knight’s armour and wielding weapons, stepping out of the portals like ghosts. Ignoring the soldiers, the ghost knights red fiercely at the demons, as if they wanted to shred them into pieces!


    Themander then saw the dark figure raise his hand and swung it forward!


    “Attack!!!”
