Chapter 404: Chapter 224: People of Huanwo Village
Li Ang knew well that in the swamp terrain, racing the Demons would be impossible. He imdiately grasped the Multi-colored Magic Staff and began channeling Magic Power.
The high-purity, High-tier Magic Power did not frighten the approaching three-headed Demons. Li Ang glanced at their status panels, confirming they were indeed in a Frenzy state.
The Water Flying Serpent was the fastest, skimming over a patch of grass and opening its mouth to spray venom at the mbers of the Star Flower Travel Corps.
Li Ang erected a Dark Elental Shield that seed to devour even light, instantly annihilating the large swath of venom.
"That child!"
Zoe worriedly looked towards the white-haired girl in the path of the three-headed Demons.
However, the branches under the girl’s feet suddenly accelerated in growth, covering most of her figure. The three-headed Demons passed right under the branches, as if they didn’t even notice her.
But for Li Ang’s team mbers, it was difficult to completely withstand the impact of the three large Demons.
He imdiately utilized the Magic Circulation effect of the Multi-colored Set, instantly converting the High-tier Magic Power of his entire Equipnt into Dark Elent, then launched a Blade Form Attack.
A Dark Blade, as if wielded by a giant, slashed down from mid-air. Its trailing streak was like a starless night sky, swallowing the surrounding light. Everyone felt as if night had fallen for a brief mont; upon opening their eyes again, the three-headed Demons were already decapitated.
The local people who were rescued stood in stunned silence, unable to speak a word.
"Not surprising, Master." Andasu looked at Li Ang intently.
Li Ang tapped the staff on the ground, savoring the experience of harnessing a large amount of Dark Elent.
To create ultimate lethality, the effect of the Dark Elent truly excels. As scholars say, it’s the condensed residue of all things vanishing—a force inclined towards destruction and death, almost as if it’s trying to seize the vitality of the Caster himself.
Fortunately, with his Level 9 Magic Power, he could handle it.
"Is it safe?" Dorothy parted the Demon-Born Flower Vines shielding her and peaked out to inquire.
Li Ang frowned slightly, sensing faint Magic fluctuations being transmitted from afar.
The small Demon in the arms of the girl standing on the treetop issued another warning, and he imdiately told the girls and locals behind him, "Go quickly. I’ll hold them off."
Just as he finished speaking, a large number of Demons appeared. The previous four-headed Demons had already flattened much of the tall grass, and now the invaders could be seen from a distance.
This ti, the incoming Demons were like a tide—not only were there a significant number of large, Transcendent-level Demons, but there was also a huge swarm of smaller ones.
Damn it, why did so much effort have to be expended upon setting foot on ngze Island?
Li Ang cursed under his breath, drawing out the Oathbreaker’s Vengeance Thornlance, which transford directly into the Counterattack Dark Blade Form, swirling around him.
This spear was ant for use in dire situations. Though it had not reached that point yet, its Life Absorption Skill was crucial for sustaining combat.
He guided Magic Power from within Orichalcum, also unlocking the Treasure Staff’s Formal Liberation.
Six-Phase Magic surged like a halo around Li Ang, the staff’s body liquefied and split into six, providing tangible vessels for six High-tier Magic Powers. The halos adorned Li Ang like a Celestial God, with six streams of Magic flowing behind and uplifting the Multi-Colored Energy Spirit Core at the heart of the Treasure Staff.
This was the Formal Liberation of Orichalcum—the Six-Phase Mage’s divine Armor.
This Treasure Staff, crafted by three Hamr of the Source Artisans from the Do Furnace Association, was formidable in that its form provided complete amplification, unlike many Treasure Artifacts that rely specialized certain abilities.
When discussing the Treasure Staff’s intricacies with Hephaestus, Li Ang was inford that this liberated form temporarily overclocked Orichalcum, squeezing more Magic output from the Multi-Colored Energy Spirit Core, enabling the staff to exert greater power than usual. However, the drawback was the inability to use it for extended periods, as the Spirit Core could overheat.
The staff’s formal liberation, combined with the entire Multi-colored Set, raised its effect to another level.
With a thought, Li Ang transford the Mage’s divine Armor into Ether Output Mode, converting all Magic into pale blue Ether, used to cast the Mage Profession’s Lightning Spell.
Utilizing the understanding provided by the Material Magic Scripture, the transformation of High-tier Magic to Lightning was completed in an instant. With just a raise of his hand, a lightning bolt as thick as a hall pillar ford in his palm, its explosive streak resembling a Thunder God personally hurling a Thunder Spear.
With a thrust of his palm, the lightning swept across the wetlands in a chain, instantly blasting the front-line Demons as the water on the ground exploded into a wide-area electric net. Plants above were instantly incinerated, and part of the water was electrolyzed, triggering a violent chain explosion.
The first strike easily blew the dozen advancing Demons into fragnted remains.
The pale blue around Li Ang turned green as he began to experint with the Power of Nature.
The Material Magic Scripture inford him that Nature’s power is wild and unfettered, so after the Mage’s divine Armor outputted a large amount of the Power of Nature, he did not shape it into a specific spell but directly guided their Spirituality forward as a release.
Green light scoured the earth, and the large patch of plants reduced to ashes instantly regenerated from the roots, rapidly growing wildly, even mutating into creatures close to Demons.
Under the enhancent of High-tier Power of Nature, they acquired a tenacity that even creatures of the Transcendent Realm couldn’t escape, quickly entangling and strangling the Demon horde.
Li Ang released a soft breath, having forestalled the Demon Frenzy with just two castings.
"Hey, I’m here to assist you."
A suddenly familiar, bold voice echoed from behind.
Li Ang raised an eyebrow, looking towards the arrival in surprise.
The newcor was a mber of the Knight Resolution Council, ranked eighth in personal achievents—the "Heart-slaying Swordmaster" Otto.
This Elder of the Horned Race stood taller than Balbanus, embodying a robust and reliable defensive wall. As he appeared, two long blades had already been drawn, swinging furiously.
The surging force combined with water, though not purely Elental Attacks, manifested as Sword Skills through shaped Sword Qi. In an instant, the waves he conjured beca peaks the Demons couldn’t breach.
Their scales ruptured and disintegrated in the face of this Sword Qi; Otto cutting through these Demons was like slicing through tofu paper sheets with no exception.
"Thank you for the help."
Li Ang expressed his gratitude to the elder.
With his addition, the Demon Frenzy was swiftly eradicated by the two of them.
Being a Knight Resolution Council mber, just like Elaphia who was widely known, Li Ang had heard about Otto before but witnessing him in action was a first.
Why had he co to ngze Island, possibly for its timber?
Li Ang was about to inquire, yet saw Otto walking straight towards the white-haired young girl.
"ii, you’ve wandered too far."
The elder spoke with a low voice.
"I’m sorry, Grandpa Otto."
The girl called ii erged from the protection of the branches, lightly hopping to the ground. According to the system’s observation, she appeared to be an ordinary little girl, without any notable traits.
"If you’re eager to learn Swordsmanship, you should heed advice." The elder’s voice held a trace of sternness.
"I have Sister Shu’s help..."
The girl seed to want to argue but held her tongue, noticing Otto’s strict expression.
She stroked the small animal in her arms, quickly adding, "With Bunny’s help, I won’t be surrounded by Demons."
ii lifted the small Demon she held, revealing to everyone what resembled a rabbit, it’s more accurate to say, a Demon with a rabbit appearance.
Li Ang glanced at its status panel; it was called the Moon Concealing Rabbit, a Demon he hadn’t seen before.
The system indicated it was skilled at sensing danger and could report to those it recognized.
ii petted the Moon Concealing Rabbit’s head: "Bunny is so cute, Bunny is excellent, only thanks to Bunny can I feel at ease."
"You should head back to the village now." Otto said to the young girl.
The elder lifted the hem of his outer garnt a bit, and Li Ang noticed that under the man’s coat, an image of the Sea Dragon was embroidered on his robe.
So, the Heart-slaying Swordmaster was also from Huanwo Village?
ii nodded to Otto, turning to walk into the wetlands.
"Is it okay, letting her return alone?" Zoe couldn’t help but ask.
Otto looked at the brunette girl, his deanor significantly softened: "That child has extraordinary talents; she naturally gains information from All Spirits. If she doesn’t act rashly, such a crisis won’t trap her."
Once ii had left, Otto pivoted to face Li Ang with fiercely piercing eyes locked onto him.
"Mr. Li Ang, although ngze Island is my holand, my return here is to seek you."
