A monster covered with gray-white scales stood on the city wall, with hundreds of human soldiers scattered around it.
What's strange is that although the soldiers have different postures, they stand there motionless.
"Roar……"
The monster let out an intrusive roar, and the four sharp bone knives protruding from both sides of its elbows buzzed and vibrated.
The densely packed small crystal-like columns on the back undulate, emitting a brownish-yellow haze all the time.
It is enduring.
Resist the urge to tear these 'playthings' (human beings) apart and eat them.
If Xu Fei was present, he would definitely be able to recognize him.
Judging from the shape, this monster belongs to the same species as the humanoid demon he killed in Tashala.
But the biggest difference between the two is that this monster has seven vertical eyes arranged in an inverted V shape.
The one he killed only had three eyes.
Gulu...
The bloodshot vertical eyes looked in different directions, constantly scanning the nearby soldiers.
Being able to imprison the flow of energy within a living body through vision is an innate skill of this race.
puff!
Blood was spilled all over the ground, and several more human soldiers were torn into pieces by sharp claws.
The one who took action was another monster covered in purple flames.
It stands on two legs, with the leg joints protruding and bending forward as if broken, and a pair of wide bat wings behind it.
The lizard-like head has no eyes, ears, or nose, only a long mouth that extends to the neck and is filled with fine teeth.
"Tachis... don't play any more... we will be discovered by the humans soon..."
The gray-scaled demon let out a hoarse whisper, accusing his companions of dissatisfaction.
It also longs to enjoy the pleasure of slaughter, but unfortunately the number of life forms imprisoned using its innate skills is too large, making it unable to move.
Normally there would be no need for such trouble.
It doesn't take much effort to kill these weak blood-eaters in front of you.
At this time, they have no choice but to suppress their power in order to achieve their primary purpose, and can only use their natural abilities with small energy fluctuations and the most primitive physical attacks.
It didn't take long.
The soldiers on the city wall were slaughtered, and dozens of nearby magic cannons were also destroyed.
At the same time, a loud siren sounded from below the city wall.
However, the two demons did not pay attention to the gathered soldiers.
They were condescending, staring at the ground somewhere in the city.
It seems that I want to see through the layers of soil the ancient dragon cave buried deep underground.
Click...the change happened suddenly.
The ice layer that had condensed on the surface of Surdanan City Wall for countless years showed cracks, and the white mist that filled the surrounding area began to slowly dissipate.
"Jie Jie Jie Jie Jie... The Demon Eater succeeded... The killing feast has begun..."
The seven vertical eyes were covered with scarlet bloodshot eyes, and the Gray Lin Demon showed an eerie smile.
…
…
Government hall, lounge balcony.
"Um?"
Xu Fei narrowed his eyes and looked at the southern sky.
"What's the matter, Your Highness?"
Nataya heard the sound and quickly followed Xu Fei's gaze.
It's just that the balcony of the lounge faces east. As a woman, Natalya is relatively short, and her view is blocked by the wall.
As a last resort, she put her hands on the fence and stood on tiptoes before barely sticking her head out to watch.
A fifty-meter-high giant city wall stands in the distance, its surface shining with a light blue light.
Under the rays of the sun, dots of golden spots appear on the wall, which are extremely dazzling.
The light mist gradually condenses into water droplets, and a colorful rainbow bridge hangs in the blue sky, connecting the city to the endless wilderness outside the city.
"So, so beautiful!"
Natalya was immediately shocked by the beautiful scenery in front of her and opened her mouth in surprise.
"Nataya."
Xu Fei called out the name of his exclusive knight with an expressionless face.
"Yes, yes! Your Highness."
Natalya quickly turned around, her eyes still shining with excitement.
Snapped!
The knife hit the opponent's forehead without any bias, just like it did when Lei Yin complained.
"Woo..."
Not daring to rub her forehead, Natalya lowered her head and whimpered, wondering why she had made His Highness unhappy.
Is it because I have recently discovered that His Highness is actually a cold-faced and kind-hearted person, so my behavior becomes more and more unscrupulous when I relax?
Yes, this must have displeased His Highness.
Your Highness is a royal family after all! Always treat him with respect and humility!
This is the interest that the nobles should abide by, and it is also the majesty of the royal family!
ah! I hope Your Highness will not expel me! The glory of my father and family rests entirely on me!
Just when Nataya was thinking wildly, Xu Fei pointed to the south and explained: "The scenery doesn't matter, didn't you see the fog dissipate?"
"ah?"
Natalya's thoughts were interrupted and she was a little slow to react for a moment.
After being stunned for a moment, she finally understood what Xu Fei meant.
"Yes, Your Highness. In the Nancheng District, the cold air density on the surface of the city wall needs to be maintained at all times to resist the invasion of heretics. The white fog will not dissipate all year round."
"Well, I...could it be that the city lord specifically lifted the alert to create a gorgeous atmosphere today in order to welcome the coalition forces?" Natalya continued to add.
"Wouldn't it be counterproductive to increase the risk of city defense just to welcome guests?" Xu Fei questioned, touching his chin.
This sentence has two meanings.
On the one hand, if the White Mist City's security is lax, monsters will take the opportunity to launch a large-scale siege.
Even if there are no serious consequences in the end, the August Empire will be labeled as a major mistake in the first battle and become a talking point for other countries.
On the other hand, Xu Fei feels that this kind of flashy behavior that puts himself at risk will not only not be favored by the coalition forces, but will also be discriminated against by other countries and think August is reckless, right?
Natalya thought for a moment and waved her hands: "No, Your Highness. The heretics are ugly, rough, and simple-minded guys. Their siege behavior usually has no purpose. The generals of the coalition forces should We all understand.”
"..."
Xu Fei nodded and did not refute.
Heretics, monsters, demons, there is no unified name.
People of this era did not know much about demons, and had an extremely contemptuous attitude derived from a decade of irregular warfare.
No one is certain that the devil possesses intelligence except himself.
Even if a few wise people have doubts, their voices will be drowned in the majority of voices.
Xu Fei didn't think he could change Nataya's deep-rooted thoughts, and there was no point in changing her mind as a little knight...
It would be best to find tangible evidence and let the four brothers and sisters know the truth of the matter before persuading the top leaders of the countries.
For example, sneak into the weird forest opposite the city and catch a talking demon back...
But since I can’t use my consciousness in this false world, the process should be very difficult...
Buzz~~~~~~~~!
While Xu Fei was still deep in thought, a huge alarm sounded suddenly.
He raised his head blankly, and what he saw was an unexpected scene.
Like stars falling, the city wall known as the steel barrier scattered countless ice fragments.
Then... impact, crack, collapse.
With layers of roaring sounds, a huge arm covered with lava stretched into the city.
