Chapter 306 Three-Way Battle
The outsider's sneak attack caught everyone present off guard.
He was completely shrouded in a red cloak, revealing only a pair of eyes that gleamed with an eerie red light. The Outer Path Demon moved with extreme agility, like a cheetah that had been lying in wait for a long time.
The crimson whip shot out from his sleeve, its surface seemingly dripping with a blood-like liquid, gleaming with a dangerous aura.
The moment the opponent made their move, Qin Nan sensed something unusual. Reminded by the sand-controlling magical girl, she was startled and instinctively turned around.
But the attack was so fast that Qin Nan didn't have time to dodge.
Just as she was preparing to take the hit, a dark figure suddenly darted out from behind Qin Nan.
It was a shadowy tentacle, entirely black, formed from pure shadow energy. Under the dim light, its edges appeared somewhat ethereal, and this shadowy tentacle moved with incredible speed.
In the blink of an eye, the shadowy tentacle precisely met the incoming scarlet whip, and the collision of the two forces, each containing immense power, instantly produced an incredibly crisp sound.
Qin Nan didn't have time to think it through. Taking advantage of the opportunity, she took a small step and suddenly stepped back, gracefully widening the distance between herself and the other person before returning to Tang Cao's side.
The heretical demon who launched the sneak attack was clearly not prepared for such an unexpected turn of events. A look of surprise appeared on his face beneath his cloak. Just as he was about to pull back his whip, he discovered that his weapon was tightly bound by the shadowy tentacles.
The two sides then reached a stalemate, with strange negative energy surging in mid-air, creating ripples in this underground world.
Qin Nan frowned slightly, preparing for battle. Tang Cao's eyes were also filled with vigilance. The two first glanced at the heretic demon, then shifted their gaze to the shadows.
As the woman's silhouette slowly emerged from the shadows, a hint of doubt flashed in Qin Nan's eyes. "This power... what is it...?"
Before she could finish speaking, the heretic demon let out a low growl.
"You filthy ditch, how dare you ruin my good time!"
As the heretic finished speaking, the outline in the shadows gradually became clearer, and soon, a charming woman in a black evening gown emerged from the shadows.
"The Shadow Woman!?" Qin Nan and Tang Cao asked at the same time.
Although they had suspected it beforehand, they still couldn't quite believe it when they actually saw Shi appear in front of them.
Tang Cao was surprised that the Shadow Woman would reappear after the Shadow Calamity, while Qin Nan was somewhat incredulous, since in her understanding, the woman in front of her should have been dead!
Hearing their exclamations, Shi gracefully crossed her arms and her cold gaze slowly moved to Qin Nan.
Looking into her eyes, Qin Nan felt for some reason that the other person's gaze was full of jealousy, as if the wife were looking at the mistress.
Seeing that Shi ignored him, the demon's face darkened. "What, you bunch of spineless cowards are already planning to switch sides after being defeated by a magical girl?"
"Stop talking nonsense." Shi sneered, then glared fiercely at the heretic demon. "That girl is my prey; only I can kill her!"
The heretic was taken aback at first, but his expression quickly returned to its fierce look. "I thought you would lie low for a while after your defeat. Fine, since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, let's settle the score for the Shadow Calamity!"
With a sudden flick of his arm, barbs instantly sprouted from the surface of the scarlet whip, tearing through the restraints of the shadow tentacles in the blink of an eye and lashing towards Lost's head.
The Shadow Disaster was arguably the most devastating event since the magical girl was revealed. Although there were no casualties from a human perspective, making it seem like a case of much ado about nothing, its negative impact was still enormous.
At least after this disaster, everyone is well aware of how terrifying the hidden crises in this world are, and how these disasters are closely related to everyone; no one is safe.
As for the heretical demons, their casualties were enormous!
The inner world was already in a state of internal strife, and many heretical demons took this opportunity to pass through the gap and descend into the real world, hoping to take advantage of the chaos and hunt down a wave of humans.
As a result, when the shadow energy spreads out from the surface world, those heretics are the first to be attacked.
Some of the weaker heretical demons were directly devoured by the shadows, transformed into negative energy and merged into the shadows. The stronger heretical demons fared no better; resisting the power of the shadows was also a tremendous challenge for them.
At this moment, seeing that the Shadow Clan, who had caused all this, had actually appeared in front of him and ruined his plans, the heretic demon was filled with rage.
Disappointed by the approaching scarlet whip, he calmly sidestepped the attack, then casually waved his hand, causing the shadows beneath his feet to scatter in all directions, with several shadowy spikes protruding and rushing towards the heretic demon.
Upon seeing this, the heretic demon suddenly raised his hand to block, and after taking several steps back, he steadied himself. He opened his mouth wide, and a ball of dark blue flame spewed out, transforming into a fireball that floated in his hand.
He suddenly pressed the flames onto the ground, and the entire floor instantly seemed to be covered with alcohol. The dark blue flames spread out in the blink of an eye, surging in all directions indiscriminately.
Qin Nan and Tang Cao watched in stunned silence. They had never seen two evil forces fight each other before. The last time Qin Nan saw a similar scene was when Tang Zijun charged into the army of alien beasts and wreaked havoc.
Seeing the raging flames approaching, Tangcao suddenly raised her hand.
""Ice Soul·Yu"! "
A row of pure ice shields rose from the ground, and the cold pure ice instantly covered the ground, blocking the ghostly blue flames.
Amidst the flames, Shi neither dodged nor evaded, transforming into a shadow as he fiercely pounced upon the heretical demon.
The two sides fought fiercely, exchanging blows, and the entire subway station was shaken by the energy fluctuations they unleashed, with violent tremors gradually spreading.
"You know, I've wanted to fight you for a long time," the Heretic Demon sneered. "I wanted to make my move as soon as I heard about the emergence of a new force in this world. By seizing your power, Lord Rakshasa will be able to research even more powerful beasts!"
She missed her kick, then quickly used both hands to block the attack. At the same time, her expression changed slightly after hearing the other person's words. "What do you mean?"
"Looks like you bunch of filthy dregs don't know everything either, die!" The heretic demon unleashed an extremely savage power, tearing Shi's body apart with a single claw.
The torn body suddenly scattered and instantly reassembled behind the Outer Path Demon, a blade of shadow pointing directly at the back of the Outer Path Demon's neck.
But it seemed as if the other party had eyes in the back of their head; their cloak was suddenly lifted, and a tail blocked the approaching shadow.
She dodged the tail with a quick movement, her gaze fixed intently on the heretic demon. "Sir Skeleton, you've used the Flower Fairy race to create a beast impervious to sunlight. Now you're planning to try and take advantage of me?"
"There are too many wolves and not enough meat. There shouldn't be so many hunters in this world. There is only one fate for you. You will all have to contribute everything to the descent of our Demon God!" The heretic demon roared and lashed out with his whip.
She fought her way back, and as she listened to the enemy's furious shouts, her face darkened. "A bunch of burrowing rats dare to spout such nonsense? If you're so powerful, why was a high-ranking official killed by a greedy person?"
"How dare you, with your foul mouth, comment on those who follow heretical paths?!"
A dark blue flame suddenly surged up, filling the entire subway station with the shriek of the Outer Demon.
"You bunch of useless trash don't understand our power at all. You possess the ability to freely enter and exit the real world, yet you don't know how to use it. If it were us, this world would have been ruled by heretics long ago!"
Shi's expression changed slightly. She withdrew and stepped back, clapping her hands lightly after creating some distance between herself and the person.
Immediately afterwards, shadows flashed past, transforming into black figures wielding blades, standing beside her.
"Should we call someone?"
Noticing Shi's actions, the Outer Path Demon sneered, and then one by one, the Netherworld Scum squeezed out from various corners, gathering together with bursts of inhuman whispers.
The subway station, which was originally in a mess, was occupied by a large number of Shadow Clan and Netherworld Clan members. The two sides were evenly matched, their eyes filled with ferocity.
Without any greeting or communication, the heretical demons launched the first attack, and the scum of the underworld screamed and attacked everything around them.
"Feeding, feeding, feeding!!"
The scythe-wielding Netherworld Scum, devoid of reason, roared and charged towards the Shadow Scum, while others rushed towards Tang Cao and Qin Nan.
Surrounded by the Shadows, Shi's gaze was icy. She didn't say a word, but simply waved her hand, and the Shadows scattered in all directions as if they had received a command.
Qin Nan and Tang Cao were completely bewildered by the scene before them, but they had no time to think too much, as the enemy had already rushed in front of them.
Tang Cao raised his sword to block the scythe of the Netherworld Scum. Just as he was about to counterattack, he saw the Netherworld Scum be pierced through by the sharp hand blades of the Shadow Clan.
After killing one of the Netherworld Scum, the Shadow Scum did not pause for a moment. He leaped forward and thrust his hand towards Tangcao's neck, but before the hand blade could touch Tangcao, it was blocked by Tangcao's sword.
The entire subway station battlefield instantly descended into chaos. In the ensuing three-way melee, everyone frantically launched attacks on everything around them.
On the ground, the agents of the Demon Surveillance Bureau looked at the negative energy monitors in their hands, and their expressions changed.
