Looking at the cracking dark sky, Renn breathed a sigh of relief.
This means that Alex the Axe's team, as well as the one-armed killer Kelvin and the illusionist Roland's team also successfully destroyed two other energy nodes in the Demon Realm.
"It's really embarrassing this time."
With disheveled hair and dirty body, Ren stretched out his hand to wipe away the blood that spilled from the corner of his mouth, and stood up slowly while holding back the pain all over his body.
The power of the Dark Duke was still a bit beyond his expectation.
Although part of Ren's strength was suppressed by the Demon Realm, the Demonic Duke was just a clone.
Calculated this way, it would be very difficult for him to kill the Dark Duke alone.
Unless he is promoted from the fourth level to the peak of the fourth level, and the magic sword "Starlight Blade" is also promoted from a pseudo-holy weapon to a holy weapon, it is best to get another legendary gun. In this way, maybe he can try to surpass the level. challenge.
Wisps of green smoke floated up, and the headless body of the demon ghost gradually melted and disappeared. However, after a while, only a piece of blue-gray diamond-shaped crystal was left in place.
"Wealth is in danger, and the food expenses for next month have been paid."
Ren showed a smile like a money man and held up the blue-gray crystal.
This is a priceless piece of demon essence. Like werewolf heart, blood core, magic stone and other items, it is the core of power left after the death of a demon.
The core of power left behind by a demon after his death is one of the necessary materials for extraordinary professionals to advance in rank.
This kind of thing is very expensive, but there is no need to worry about no one buying it.
When Renne used the top-level plan to advance to the fourth-level master, the core material was the spirit of the Demonic Marquis. Some of the remaining materials were provided by the Demon Hunter Association, and some were obtained by Renne after he killed the ghost-hand Marcello.
But the most critical and hardest-to-obtain fourth-level demon spirit was provided by Kesha for free, otherwise Renn would not have been able to gather the resources needed to be promoted to master so quickly.
'It's not easy to make some money. '
Holding the blue-grey demon spirit in his hand, Ren smiled a little self-deprecatingly.
Although he worked very hard to make money by killing people and setting fires, and wanted to make a fortune and marry Bai Fumei, but compared with the Valkyrie who had a mine at home, he always gave people the feeling that he was eating soft food.
It was a bit bad, and it made him unable to stand up straight in front of the Valkyrie for a long time.
'Am I considered a pretty boy being kept by a rich woman? '
Ren laughed dumbly and stopped thinking. He walked over and helped Michelle, who was kneeling on one knee, up:
"Hey, are you okay?"
This man is even more embarrassed than him.
His whole body was stained with blood, his face was pale, and his breath was very weak. It was obvious that in order to slash out that sword that was comparable to the Holy Land, Michelle also paid a high price.
The "Heart-Burning Holy Fire" burns not only the enemy, but also one's own soul and spirit as fuel for the holy fire.
Even the church cannot find someone to control the "Heart-Burning Holy Fire" in every generation.
For example, among the church's Paladins of Michelle's previous generation, Gonzalez's generation, no one could control the "Heart-Burning Holy Fire" and the "Withering Cold Light" which is as famous as the Holy Fire.
"Don't worry, you won't die yet."
Glancing at Ren, Michelle still had a cold face.
There is neither the weak posture after being seriously injured, nor the pride and complacency after breaking through the demonic realm with a strong sword.
'This is a very boring man. ' Ren thought in his mind.
He took out the magic knife with his right hand and cut the blue-gray demon spirit in the palm of his left hand evenly in half. This thing looked like a translucent crystal, but it was not actually solid, but almost like jelly.
"Come on, I'll share half of the spoils with you, okay?"
Ren reached out and handed half of the demon spirit to Michelle.
This demon spirit comes from the clone of a dark archduke. It may not be as powerful as the core of a real archduke-level demon, but it is still very precious.
Even if it is half a piece, its value is no worse than the Dark Duke-level blood core, magic stone, werewolf heart and other things.
In the words of the old goat, as long as you sell the things, you can be popular and drink spicy food immediately next month, and you can call ten girls as escorts in one night.
"Can."
Michelle looked at Ren with her green eyes, nodded slightly, and took the half of the blue-gray demon spirit.
This can be regarded as recognition of the opponent's distribution method. In this battle, Rennes' performance was also recognized by him.
The Demon Realm──"Dark Cave" was disintegrating. The two of them took a short rest before heading towards the gathering place.
………
The east side of the Demon Realm.
A tall demon corpse lay on the ground. There were hideous scars on his corpse. His head was split from the forehead, and blood and white brains flowed out.
Even though he was dead, the demon still exuded strong pressure and evil aura, proving his power.
This is the clone of a Dark Archduke of the Demon Tribe.
"It's a pity that it's just a clone." Alex the Ax grinned, showing his white teeth. "It's a bit embarrassing this time. The work speed can't be compared with the two young people."
He was holding a stone-like object that emitted purple-black light.
Compared to Ren and Michelle, who were seriously injured in the north, Alex's strong muscles had a lot of blood stains and scars, but his aura was still wild and menacing.
Ax isn't really a sanctuary.
But having cultivated the holy body of the Barbarian King, he can be considered to have fifth-level combat power. The clone of a demon archduke cannot defeat a berserker who has reached the peak of his totem journey.
The demon node on the east side was the farthest away, and Alex basically wasted his time on the road.
The west side of the Demon Realm.
The one-armed killer Kelvin holds a blood-stained black dagger.
The jet-black dagger flashed with electric arcs, flames, wind blades...all kinds of weak phenomena. This is the "Twelve Movements of the Netherworld", which comes from the most powerful Pluto of the North Sea and is an advanced skill of the [Shadow Warrior] profession.
The killer's left wrist was open and bleeding, and there were still wisps of beating blood inflammation on the broken clothes.
"It's embarrassing. The more I live, the more I go back."
The illusionist Roland on the side coughed up a mouthful of blood, his handsome face a little pale.
A piece of blood-colored crystal was placed on the palm of his hand wearing a white glove, and a strange red light flowed on the crystal. This was the blood core of a vampire grand duke.
On the ground, there was a man with dark red bat wings lying.
There was a sense of shock in the blood-colored eyes. There was a wound that was transparent from front to back in the man's heart. He was controlled by illusion, and then died from the killer's fatal blow.
The [Shadow Warrior] profession and the [Illusionist] profession are rated as one of the most suitable duos.
Just like the combination of witcher and warlock, knight and mage, they are as classic as each other.
"Yes, we have been slacking off for so many years." The one-armed killer Kelvin shook his head and sighed, "As expected, as the butcher said, this generation of young people is very amazing."
"Indeed, we are a bit outdated, but Carlos has successfully entered the Holy Realm and can still keep up with the trend of the times."
Wiping away the blood from the corner of his mouth, the illusionist Roland smiled slightly.
Ghost, Phantom, Gun Ghost, Ax King... Back then, everyone was the captain of the Fire Dragon Knights, and they all got along pretty well, but now they are one step away from Gun Ghost and Ax King.
"Carlos is not only one step ahead of us, but his vision is also good. That young demon hunter is indeed as he said, no less than Princess Sophie, Michelle and others..."
The two veterans chatted while walking towards the main army.
Although they say they are outdated, in fact, the two of them are the slowest in defeating the enemy, but their injuries are not as serious as Renne and Michelle.
All I can say is that ginger is still spicy.
………
Three minutes later.
In the collapsing Demon Realm, everyone has gathered. Alex is the first to return carrying an ax, followed closely by the killer Kelvin and the illusionist Roland.
Renn helped Michelle, who was feeling weak, and finally arrived at the scene.
Although they were the fastest to deal with the enemy, because they were seriously injured, it was a little difficult to deal with the remaining monsters and undead when they came back, and a lot of time was wasted.
Everyone looked at Ren and Michelle, who looked very embarrassed, and the half piece of demon spirit in their hands, and their eyes became very strange.
"Hey, hey, this is a bit exaggerated. Young people are terrible."
"Michelle, the Holy White Sword, has been famous for a long time. I can accept this kind of strength, but what's going on with Sir...Ackerman? I've never heard of this person before."
"God knows, maybe he is the kind of low-key professional who devotes himself to hard work."
"Tsk, tsk, a clone of the Dark Duke was killed by a paladin of about thirty years old and a demon hunter of about twenty years old. It's really surprising."
No one could have imagined in advance that two young men, Ryan and Michelle, would steal the limelight from Alex the Axe.
When the roar of the destruction of the demonic node in the north came not long ago, everyone felt a little surprised.
Everyone was even more surprised when they learned from the returning Ax King that those guarding the nodes of the Demon Realm should all be clones of the Dark Duke.
'It seems that I really won't be able to keep a low profile in the future. '
While supporting Michelle, Ren's heart moved. He could feel everyone's eyes focused on him.
The curiosity, doubt, exploration, awe... all the meanings contained in it made him famous in one battle.
Unlike his previous minor fame, he estimated that he would not be famous throughout the continent, but at least after today, Sir Ackerman would be considered famous in Farrowland.
This is not surprising, this is the reputation brought by strength and record.
Although everyone didn't know what happened in the battle, no one thought that Ren was holding him back. Otherwise, no matter how powerful Michelle was, he wouldn't be able to finish off his opponent faster than Axe.
Sir Ackerman must be of considerable standard.
"Amazing, Master Ren! Not only did he not burp, but he actually came out on top! He is indeed a genius carefully cultivated by the association, and was spotted by the vice-president!"
Among the crowd, the old goat burst out laughing after seeing Renn covered in blood.
He patted him on the shoulder with a smile on his face, as if encouraging his juniors.
However, the old goat's words were very skillful. He made it clear that Renne was affiliated with the Demon Hunter Association and was favored by the association's senior officials. Those who wanted to poach him could just go to sleep.
really.
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of many people were not as intense as before, and the doubts in everyone's hearts were also reduced a lot.
The wave period has arrived, and many organizations and countries are paying more attention to talents.
Michelle is a genius cultivated by the church since childhood, and there is no possibility of winning over him, but Sir Ackerman, who appears out of nowhere, can give him a try.
Old Goat has been a member of the Witcher Association for decades. He said this deliberately because he didn't want anyone to poach the association.
Renn's rise is too fast. If the association doesn't pay attention to it, it would be bad if others cut him off midway... But the vice-president seems to think highly of him.
The old goat knew very well that the vice president of the Demon Hunter Association, "Magic Spear" Carragher, had always been paying attention to Renn.
This seems to involve a lot of big shots in the Nokman Empire, especially people from the Feuerbach family, the royal family of the empire, who have been secretly paying attention to Ren's movements.
Considering the unclear relationship between Miss Catherine, Princess Kesha and Kid Wren... the old goat can understand.
Son-in-law... In his opinion, it was already too late for others to take action.
Asking a church paladin to support Michelle, Ren ignored everyone's gaze and said nothing, and walked to Leon and Artoria.
"Ren, you are famous this time. Someone will definitely come to win you over or make some connections in the future."
"Remind you, don't be fooled by those people's rhetoric or promises of money, beauty, rights, etc..."
"You must hold on, especially tighten your belt...and don't make principled mistakes." Leon whispered a few words in Ren's ear with a playful smile.
Ren rolled his eyes and said seriously:
"Don't worry, I'm not greedy for money or lustful, I don't follow people's influence, I don't flatter others, I am firm-willed, and I am dedicated to serving the public... Don't worry, there will be no problem."
What a joke, who can tempt him, Sir Ackerman...
Besides, it’s too late for him to covet beauty and have three wives and four concubines. Do you really think Kesha won’t control him?
Leon: "..."
He underestimated Ren's face. He was worthy of being a man who had hung out with the old goat.
"Are you OK?"
Artoria's beautiful emerald eyes looked at Ren, who was covered in dirt and blood, a little worried.
It was the first time she had seen him so seriously injured.
"It's okay, just two broken ribs, minor injuries."
Touching his blood-stained and somewhat sunken chest, Ren grinned and said.
Damn, it hurts.
Girl: “…”
"With your scabbard, no problem." Feeling the warmth in his body, Ren added in a low voice.
Why is it that Michelle can barely stand up, but he can still be jumping around? Of course, it's because of the girl's Avalon.
Even though its effect has weakened a lot, the scabbard is still a powerful treasure. As long as he is not beaten to death on the spot, he will be a good man again in a few hours.
The girl suddenly realized that she had forgotten about this matter before.
"Is it over then?"
Arturia looked up at the cracked sky.
The dark clouds dispersed, and the stars and moon outside emerged one by one, and wisps of starlight and moonlight fell from the night sky.
The dark cave is collapsing, the surrounding space is beginning to distort, and images of buildings such as the Black Altar, the Brave Mansion, the Twin Towers, and the Temple of the Sun King are beginning to emerge.
Ren frowned slightly, a little surprised:
"The undead have fallen, but the monsters inside are still alive..."
At this time, zombies, skeletons, bone dragons and other undead creatures fell down in pieces like machines that had crashed.
But there are still some blood wolves, dark crows, three-tailed scorpions, human-faced spiders and other monsters running around. If they are not cleaned up, they may slip into the city.
"It's difficult to eliminate all these creatures, right? Once they sneak into the city, they will threaten the safety of citizens..."
Arturia frowned as she looked at the monsters running around.
Some people among the crowd discovered this problem and were a little at a loss. Monsters have life and can survive for a while even if the dark cave collapses.
Boom~
The dark cave completely collapsed, the black smoke and thick fog dissipated, the haze swept away, things changed, and hundreds of trapped extraordinary people appeared around the altar.
The monsters also lost their restraints and ran around.
"Don't let them get away!"
Just when everyone was ready to take action to eliminate as many monsters as possible.
A burst of ethereal and clear singing seemed to come from outside the sky, just like a ball of light from the newborn sun condensed in the void in an instant, and the morning light fell.
The touching melody that directly catches the heart resounds everywhere in an instant.
"At the beginning of the new life of the world, there is no one who has fallen.
There is no law but automatic trustworthiness, loyalty and integrity
No blood, no fear, no them
The sacred text has not yet been engraved on the brass pillar
People kiss the night and embrace the moonlight
Everything is safe and there is no corrupt person in the world
The spring light never fades, the evening breeze blows warmly
Water waves can flow to an exotic world
Man knows no other place than his own shores..."
Ancient songs echoed in the night sky.
The songs seemed to awaken the vitality in the atmosphere, and the fresh and natural breath filled the air. Everyone felt exhausted and refreshed.
A wonderful and gentle fresh warmth flows in the wind.
The songs seemed to inject vigorous vitality into every life, and everyone's pain was relieved a lot.
Saint Lucy's flowing silver hair flew away without any wind, and her whole body was like a light leaf, floating gently in the night sky without causing any swaying on the branches.
The beauty opened her red lips and showed off her singing voice.
Many people are intoxicated by her emotional and vital songs, showing their obsession.
However.
The bodies of the blood wolves, dark crows, three-tailed scorpions and other monsters gradually withered, as if their blood and moisture had been drained.
Without exception, they turned into powder silently.
However, wisps of invisible vitality turned into the breeze along with the songs, and injected into everyone's bodies. The wounds on many people's bodies began to heal, and their spirits were also restored.
Buzzing~
The orifices flickered, and the energy of the stars in his body floated. Renn's spirit was refreshed, and he woke up from the singing.
Looking at most of the extraordinary people around him who were mesmerized and immersed in the songs, he was shocked. At this time, even Leon and the old goat looked like they were in a trance.
Ren looked at Artoria again. The girl was already awake, and both of them had a look of surprise in their eyes.
Very weird singing.
It can actually extract the vitality of those monsters and use it to heal teammates. Fortunately, Lucy is a teammate. If she kills people, the efficiency of killing people with this kind of singing is simply...
"Welcome back." Lucy smiled slightly, and her voice was like a morning bell and evening drum, striking deep in everyone's heart.
Many people suddenly became excited and woke up from the singing.
Around the black altar, all the monsters have been wiped out.
