Stray - Chapter 234

    Ominous

    O’Lori really wanted to kill them.

    Dragon Breath Stone flying props are extremely valuable, and they contain a lot of surface magic. It is like a little bonfire lit in the dark of night in a place where abyss is filled with magical waves of the abyss. The mages were barely able to suppress one’s breath as much as possible with layers of props, and always pay attention to adjustment. Carrying two at the same time is nothing short of a fantasy.

    It’s not unreasonable that O’Rouree chose it as the first target – without its support, the dragon could not take off so close to the bottom of the abyss. Right now, the difficulty for them to return to the surface has soared several times.

    Nemo clenched the staff in his hand, took a step forward subconsciously, and protected the scout team behind him.

    Things are much clearer now. Delarione once mentioned that this generation of demon kings is extremely dangerous, and that is “what he and his companions saw with their own eyes”. Considering that neither of the two superior demons liked to hold any demon parties on the surface, the “companion” in the mouth of the sage of the abyss was O’Lori.

    According to his contact with Della Laineen, the sage of the abyss obviously does not have any so-called “sense of responsibility”. If you want to find out the mastermind of this huge plan from the two, Orori is obviously more in line with the characteristics.

    The shadow shield rises to protect everyone behind the shield. Nemo raised his head slightly, looking in the direction from which O’Lori’s voice came.

    Looking at Oluori’s reaction just now, the ancient demon killer decided to take action after the leader of the Muni sect proposed to spy on the demon king.

    This makes absolutely no sense.

    No superior demon would want to shelter the Demon Lord, and now Nemo knows that. Not to mention whether the power level is sufficient or not, their only recorded feeling for the Demon King is “fear”. In all the materials he has come into contact with, there has never been a Demon King’s “subordinate”, “companion”, “kin” or “Friends” records. But if you think about it from another angle-

    If Oro Rui wanted to stop the expedition in the first place, why did he go to great lengths to train Flint Lopez into a strong swordsman who could kill the Demon King?

    If Orori has always hated the surface, why did he kill those compatriots who were indiscriminately destroying the surface for thousands of years?

    If Oro Rui is on the side of the surface, why did he spend more than ten years destroying the teleportation array, and now he wants to obliterate the surface reconnaissance team here?

    [Your body is rotting at the bottom of the abyss, isn’t it? It’s just that your flesh and blood is barely able to “move”. If I fail to provide eyeballs in time for any month, you will lose your energy source, and even this piece of flesh will rot away. 】

     Of course Nemo remembers the information he overheard at Clement College.

    As a superior demon, Orori’s state can even be said to be “dying.” At least within this distance, Nemo could clearly feel it—in terms of magic power alone, Orori, not far away, might as well be a grey parrot with only a piece of flesh. He must have consumed a lot of the flesh and blood that Delarion had given him.

    Grey parrots can also draw power from their own body, Oluori’s body has…

    Yes, all doubts aside, Nemo also doesn’t think Aurora has the ability to keep them here. Even if he is limited by cognition and his own strength is not yet complete, he does not consider Orori to be his opponent.

    But that’s why they need to be more cautious – O’Lorre won’t be stupid enough to die empty-handed.

    The members of the **** team apparently have similar thoughts.

    Godwin clenched the dawn and Debbie held her breath. Oliver let out a small breath, and the gray mist surged under his feet. Whether it was Radish or Mooney, the knights were all in a defensive posture.

    The first one who shot was the leader of the Mooney religion.

    Not much time left for the other party to react. The old man squeezed out a distorted smile on his face with barely discernible features, and raised his thin hands. Countless spells surround the cobalt cone of light as fast as a guillotine blade that has lost its dangling rope. The beautiful blue light broke through the darkness and poked in the direction of the sound.

    What they hit, shattered fragilely. It wasn’t a pure magic shield, and Orori’s body wasn’t as strong.

    After the dull sound, the color is like the light cone of the evening sky broken into powder. A loud rumbling sound rose from underfoot, and the world in the darkness was rudely torn in two. The ground shook wildly, and the smoke and rubble poured down like a waterfall. In the sound of the collision of a piece of hard objects, there were countless sticky soft sounds.

    Bubble bubbles burst one by one like a thick soup boiling.

    The round, milky-white blind eyes of the lantern blind bug are opening one by one.

    Unlike before, they are close enough to the reconnaissance team at this moment, and those eyeballs with milky white shimmer no longer resemble stars, but are closer to the size of ordinary ponds on the surface.

    The mountain-like lantern-blind worms are uncharacteristically uncharacteristic, and the entire population is stuck in a large crack that is too narrow for them. Dozens of giants struggled hard, their sturdy legs twisting together, pushing the cracks to both sides.

    Yes. The lantern blind bug is extremely slow, does not take the initiative to attack, or even learns to resist, and is so stupid that it only understands basic survival instincts. But in terms of power, they are genuine superior demons—

    Their only talent is defense, and the defensive magic that naturally attaches to their sturdy skin is almost unbreakable. And when the starry sky is chaotic and constantly fluctuating, Nemo can’t even weaken them.

    The Demon Slayer stood alone in front of the luminous giants, and the white eyeballs without pupils behind him projected a brilliance like moonlight. Orori took off the helmet of his armor, his long gray hair fluttering in the wind. He stared blankly at the reconnaissance team struggling in the collapse, and stood alone in the void with his back to the lantern-blind bug group behind him.

    O’Lori didn’t even need to do it himself, the collapse of the big crack in front of him and the squeezing of the lantern blind bug were enough to be called a wave of destruction.

    I don’t know if it was Nemo’s illusion, those orange-red eyes looked a bit sad.

     Godwin’s first reaction was to hold on to the two large teleportation arrays, and the beautiful brilliance of dawn lit up instantly. His speed was extremely fast, leaving a string of scorching warm light marks in the air. The holy sword easily cut the stone platform where the teleportation array was located, and Debbie’s cooperation was not bad for a second—

    This time, before Nemo could make a move, the mercenary lady turned the pocket staff a few times in her palm.

    The light green brilliance lit up on the edge of the stone platform, and the entire stone platform was instantly held in the air by the wind, deftly avoiding the falling boulders.

    “Go ahead, I’ll stabilize this place!” Debbie’s voice was sharp and steady. The knights spontaneously set up a defense beside her, and the mages in the team, led by the leaders of the two religions, quickly smashed the unavoidable huge stones.

    The red-brown dragon was mad for some reason, and the moment the dragon breath stone prop was destroyed, its breathing rate began to become abnormal. Right now, it is frantically spewing a crimson fireball surrounded by a cursed halo at the enemy. The giant dragon recklessly returned to its original size, guarding the reconnaissance team at the position of his neck, and by the way, rudely kicked away the legs stretched out by the blind bug.

    Different from the precept bishop who frantically protects the believers, the leader of the Mooney has no intention of defending himself.

    It can be seen that the old man was not arrogant before, and the strong murderous and fighting spirit gradually spread. The blue spells bombarded the lantern blind insects that were crowding around. Although they couldn’t actually hurt these thick-skinned giants, this time each spell directly hit those white eyeballs without pupils.

    The impact and pain of the bombardment made the blind insects scream, and the slowly squeezed limbs were crooked and staggered, and they failed to crush the stone platform.

    Nemo and Oliver took the opportunity to set foot on the void and rushed towards O’Lorore.

    With the ability of the demon king, Nemo tried to communicate with the blind lantern bugs around him, so as to clear this troublesome battlefield divided by monster limbs.

    Unfortunately he only touched a blank.

    This thing is so stupid that it doesn’t think at all, it’s tricky. They usually react simply to their own kind at most. How does O’Lorre manipulate them?

    Wait, the same kind…

    The absurd conjecture flashed by, and Nemo almost missed the staff in his hand. He subconsciously threw off the shadow and bound the overly huge limbs of the blind insects together. His lover took the opportunity to rush in front of him, and the Sword of Rest slashed directly at Orori’s greatsword.

    Sparks fly.

    “Flint Lopez’s son, and nephew.” O’Lorrie’s voice was soft, and he glanced out of the corner of his eye and swept away a blind Godwin with a sword , every word oozes hatred. “Today is really my holiday.”

    “Mr. Vance.” Oliver’s voice was polite and distant, his movements did not stop, and the Sword of Rest stabbed at a different angle. “Please stop those things from attacking. If this is against me and Godwin, at least spare the scouts.”

    “O’Lore.” The Demon Slayer said his name slowly. “Unfortunately, this is for you. Ah, but one of them is special… Mr. Wright.”

    Nimo had just bound two blind bugs who were trying to crush the scout team with their bodies, and he couldn’t help but stiffen when he heard O’Rouree spit out his name.

    “I can understand Dalaraene’s dissatisfaction with the Demon King.” The demon slayer skillfully swung the great sword, and the sword wind skillfully shook off the sticky gray mist. “But as a creature of the same person, why do you stand on the surface of the earth?”

    Godwin’s sword movement paused.

    Nemo didn’t know how to answer.

    O’Luo Rui obviously believes that the one who is wandering at the bottom of the abyss at the moment is the devil, and the other party’s determined attitude even makes Nemo a little unsure of his identity. The mystery he faced was too vast and complicated, or in other words, he couldn’t bear to reach out to the glimmer of hope that “I’m not really a demon king”—

    “I don’t know what you’re talking about.” He responded dryly, directing Sombra to attack O’Lore.

      The sword hummed. “Delarion can do the former, and you’re clearly done better. No normal born demon can do that.”

    The red light is stronger. The ominous radiance spread from the giant sword to Orori’s body, and the breath was familiar.

    It is the abyss magic activated by Ann during the Black Badge test. Nemo remembers very clearly, burning his own flesh and squeezing his potential. But An is still able to recover, O’lori’s body should not allow him to use such a dangerous spell.

    Oliver was very strong, and the gray fog almost turned into an entity, dancing around him. Compared with O’Lori, Oliver in black armor is more like a real demon. However, the combat experience that Demon Slayer has accumulated over the thousands of years is very terrifying, and all the powerful attack moves are deftly resolved or deflected.

    Not to mention that the waving limbs of the blind bugs are always interfering with Oliver’s movements. At this moment, coupled with the power of Orori’s burning flesh, the head of the tumbleweed lost his advantage.

    Godwin was still fighting, but the Demon Slayer’s astonishing speech clearly disturbed his mind. Nemo could feel the change in Godwin’s movements—the Horizon’s head no longer had his back pointed this way without hesitation.

    Yes, that’s it, there’s no need for Aurora to lie.

    “I don’t remember anything.” Nemo said hoarsely, “We’re just here to investigate the teleportation array—”

    “You let the bug of the Mooney religion approach the devil, which is enough to prove everything.”

    Eurore sneers. The magic that unleashed his potential was devouring his body, the Demon Slayer’s skin was cracking like Ann had done, and blood was slowly seeping out, but he didn’t seem to care about it.

    “If it weren’t for you, if it wasn’t for Lopez, they wouldn’t be struggling now, thinking they’ve got hope. It’s happier to be dead. Come on, Wright, it’s too late to return to the abyss .”

    “Talbot Vance.”

    As of now, Nemo doesn’t plan to keep anything. He simply raised his voice, and at the same time protected Oliver’s back with a shadow shield, and bounced off the sharp toes of a blind insect. The aura that made him uncomfortable was getting closer and closer, something was wrong, but Nemo couldn’t catch the sense of disobedience for a while.

    “I don’t want anyone to come into contact with the Demon Lord? To say that the surface powerhouses are allowed to approach the Demon Lord, you have done a better job than me – as Flint Lopez’s teacher, you personally trained the killing The devil’s man.”

    O’Rouree smiled. He was laughing inappropriately in this chaotic battlefield, and the laughter sounded grief-stricken.

    “It looks like you really don’t remember anything, Wright.” He said quietly, his voice full of ash-like death. “But that’s okay.”

    “Since the Demon King sent you to the surface, he must have his intentions. You are destined to come back here. If I am not mistaken, your power should have begun to be disturbed.”

    Nemo held his breath and sank.

    “I’ll say it one last time.” O’Lori even sounded a little calm. “Go back to the abyss, let these humans die here, and I can take you away.”

    “Don’t listen to his nonsense!” Oliver yelled, “Nothing is doomed at all!”

    “No, Ollie, that’s not the problem.”

    Nimo is very calm, and it is because of his calmness that worry makes him numb. The underground “Ulysses” were attracted by the sound, and they were getting closer and closer—

    He suddenly realized the source of that sense of discord.

    “…that guy is stalling!”

    Use the slow-moving but hard-to-kill blind bug as a tool, burn your own flesh and stalemate with Oliver. Even if the battle is at a stalemate, realizing that he can’t win neatly by himself, even if the flesh and blood that supports life continues to dry up under the squeeze of spells, Orori doesn’t seem to be panicking.

    Their enemies are so calm that they even deliberately talk to them, believing that they cannot leave the abyss for some reason.

      】

    The members of the Church of the Abyss said so.

    But how did the surface race determine that “the devil will not come to the surface”? Why would you feel at ease to build a large teleportation array so close to the bottom of the abyss?

    Dangerous aura belonging to surface magic suddenly pierced into the tangled abyss magic, and quickly became denser.

    Only the Demon Lord of Instinct remains. And Orori, who doesn’t want humans to go to the bottom of the abyss now, but has no scruples to make a big move at this time, attracting the devil to come…

    “Debbie!” For the first time, Nemo roared so loudly that even if he used magic to increase the volume, his vocal cords were almost torn. “Go up with the stone platform, now! Ollie, Lopez, get out of here and go up as far as possible—”

    “It’s too late.” O’Lori raised the corner of his mouth. “I’m really old, and I haven’t succeeded in killing one yet.”

    “Farewell, everyone.”
