Chapter 98 The Demon Clan's Siege!
Countless fireballs illuminated the entire night in a fiery red glow.
With a command from the moonlit night, fireballs rained down on the demon army below.
In an instant, the demons gathered outside the Holy Light defense were blasted to pieces by the fireball.
The sound of explosions, along with the endless screams of the demons, continued.
Seeing that tens of thousands of demons were unable to defeat a caravan of only a few hundred people in a short time, Lin Xin couldn't help but say, "With the financial resources of the Moonlit Merchant Guild, they might actually be able to withstand the demons' attack."
Just as Lin Xin finished speaking, Long Haochen shook his head and said, "Impossible. Although the power of the scroll is terrifying, the consumption of energy by the magicians is equally terrifying. Unless Guild Master Yueye has other means, it is only a matter of time before these magicians' defenses are breached once their spiritual energy is exhausted."
"By then, this team of a few hundred people will not be able to withstand the attack of tens of thousands of demons, and—" Long Haochen looked into the distance, where a large number of high-level demons were poised to attack, his face somewhat grim, and said, "Those who are dying now are only some low-level demons. Once the high-level demons join the battle, the situation will instantly reverse!"
Upon hearing Long Haochen's words, Lin Xin's initial sense of relief plummeted to rock bottom.
"Sigh, it looks like I won't be able to lie down in the heart of the demon realm in a pleasant way."
Everyone understood that if Yueye lost today's battle, their arrival time at their destination would be delayed.
Sure enough, not long after Lin Xin finished speaking, a large number of Beast Demons flew in from the horizon, accompanied by a large number of ranged attack spells, which rained down on the Holy Light Defense like arrows.
The originally sturdy holy light defense began to crack under the barrage of ranged magic projectiles, and it was only a matter of time before it shattered.
To make matters worse, the already limited number of fifth-tier mages had exhausted their spiritual energy after activating a large number of scrolls.
Of the 50,000 demon soldiers, only a little over 10,000 died.
At the same time, the leader who was in charge of the demons' rear finally appeared.
A golden-bodied, bird-headed, human-bodied bird demon and a monstrous demon over two meters tall with bulging muscles, gray skin, a pair of huge red battle blades in its hands, and mouthparts came to a stop in the air at an extremely fast speed.
Upon seeing the two demons, Yueye, standing atop the carriage, frowned deeply.
"It's the Beast Demon Clan from the Garo Province, and the Berserker Clan from Narik!"
"So that's why these raiders dared to attack the caravan on such a large scale! Turns out they had two tribes backing them up!"
Moonlight coldly glanced at the two peak seventh-tier tribal leaders above her, and said with a hint of probing, "I think you should know the backing of the Moonlight Merchant Guild. Aren't you afraid of retaliation from the Moon Demon Clan for attacking us?"
"Ridiculous! We're starving to death, and you still care about this so-called revenge? Food? Tiny insects are only fit to be our food!" The Crimson Blood Demon, at the peak of the seventh rank, greedily swept his eyes over Moon Night and the others below.
Faced with that greedy look, as if she were eyeing food, it was undoubtedly an offense against Leng Xiao's dignity, who possessed the bloodline of royalty and the demon race.
He roared angrily, "You're courting death! How dare such a lowly race offend me!"
As she spoke, pure black power emanated from Leng Xiao's body.
An invisible aura of authority suddenly emanated from Leng Xiao.
This is a bloodline unique to the royal family and the demon race.
The moment they sensed Leng Xiao's bloodline, the eyes of the seventh-tier peak Golden Bird Demon and the seventh-tier peak Crimson Blood Demon, which were originally filled with greed, became somewhat pure.
This is a bloodline suppression originating from the purest form of the demon race.
But in just a moment, the golden avian demon roared, "You lowly ant, daring to impersonate the noble and rebellious demonic dragon race! Today you will surely die!"
As he spoke, the golden spear in the seventh-tier golden avian demon's hand was suddenly thrown out, shooting towards Leng Xiao's direction!
With a loud bang, the golden spear crashed heavily into the holy light defense.
Although the Holy Light Defense withstood the attack, the cracks in the shield grew larger and larger.
Seeing that his attack had failed to break through the defense, the golden avian demon at the peak of the seventh rank looked at the crimson blood demon beside him and said, "Fool, if you don't want to die, hurry up and kill her!"
The Golden Bird Demon understood that if Leng Xiao were allowed to leave alive today, a devastating disaster would await them.
Under the Golden Bird Demon's shout, the Crimson Blood Demon, a peak seventh-tier demon, reacted suddenly and roared. The surrounding demons' gray skin began to flow with blood-red patterns, and their strength and speed increased explosively.
The seventh-tier peak Golden Bird Demon also commanded about ten sixth-tier Great Bird Demons to attack the Holy Light Defense.
Under the attack of dozens of sixth-tier demons, the cracks in the holy light defense spread at a visible speed.
A sense of despair permeated the convoy.
Everyone understood that the moment the holy light defense shattered, they would be instantly devoured by these ravenous demons.
Leng Xiao hadn't expected that, just as Yue Ye had said, the demons' attacks only intensified after she slightly revealed her identity.
"Sister Yue, we can't let them keep attacking the protective shield—"
Hearing Leng Xiao's words, and seeing that Lin Feng remained unmoved, Yue Ye sighed and said, "It seems we have no choice but to use that."
'
As she spoke, the space beside Yueye tore open, and a scroll radiating purple light emerged from the tear.
But just then, Lin Feng's voice entered Yueye's mind: "Hold on for a bit—"
Hearing Lin Feng's words, Yueye was stunned for a moment. Looking at the purple scroll that was about to be taken out, she hesitated for a moment, then gave up and sent a telepathic message to Lin Feng: "Hurry up, Leng Xiao and I may not be able to hold on for long."
Inside the carriage, Lin Feng looked at the silent Cai'er and coughed lightly, saying, "Cai'er, why don't you go help Xiao Xiao first? It's inconvenient for me to show my face."
If it weren't for the fact that this was demon territory, Lin Feng wouldn't have hesitated at all.
Two mere seventh-tier peak-level enemies were instantly killed with just two arrows.
Faced with Lin Feng's request, Cai'er did not answer, but silently walked outside, her killing intent suddenly erupting.
In an instant, a thin layer of frost formed on the surrounding ground.
Cai'er took a step forward, and the next moment, holding the Divine Key - Seven Thunders of Purification, Cai'er appeared beside the ten sixth-tier Great Bird Demons.
The chilling killing intent caused the originally battle-ready Great Bird Demon to subconsciously take a step back.
Seeing that Cai'er was actually facing ten giant beast demons head-on, Leng Xiao thought of the relationship between Lin Feng and Cai'er, and looked at Yue Ye and said, "Sister Yue, I'll go help her—"
Without waiting for Yueye's reply, Leng Xiao flew off towards Cai'er's direction.
