Chapter 555 Shadow Showdown

Ordinary demons might just be good at fighting and warmongering, but demons that reach the level of demon generals usually have rich experience in warfare.

As soon as the dragon group on Mu Hua's side moved, the demon generals in the three ice and snow divisions guessed that they had discovered the hidden sky strike spell casting points on their side.

You know, those joint spellcasting points have at least taken necessary concealment measures, and natural camouflage and concealment barriers have been deployed. The demon was also very surprised by this. It seems that in the future, the information about Mu Hua will have to include content about his expertise in reconnaissance and perception.

This is a human who gives the demons a headache. Judging from the current situation, this human and even his subordinates are almost all monsters, and their magic skills are not too low. This guy is even more like a demon than a demon. I don't know if this evil obstacle was created by some demon.

Before the second wave of demons on the ground began to fight, blood rained from the sky.

Countless explosion points exploded in the sky, and floating monsters swung their tentacles across a distance of thousands of meters. Some winged monsters that were casting spells could not even get into the effective attack range of magic, and were beaten to death and maimed by the troll's soul tentacles, and squeezed into bloody foam.

At this moment, Thursday finally demonstrated its terrifying power as a strategic race.

The touch of jealousy is difficult to observe. Countless winged demons died in mid-air before they could get close. It looked very strange from a distance.

The bloody rain and broken corpses poured down on the defensive barrier of the demon army below. Whether it was the human-demon on the battlefield or the beings observing the battlefield from a distance, all of them were silent and frowned, thinking about how to deal with this monster.

Dozens of evil dragons spewing dragon fire formed a magic ring around Thursday. The flying dragons stretched out their claws and bit, pulling the winged demons that were dragged into the dragon group as if they were fighting for the corpses of their prey.

Further away, the accumulated sky strike was no longer concealed, and dazzling sky strike magic arrays were deployed on the earth. The dragons quickly moved away from the floating fortress behemoth, and the flying dragons that were temporarily delayed by the winged demon would also drill into Thursday's belly for cover.

The Curtain of Death, the Guardian Sky, the Sky-Severing Barrier, the Soft Barrier, layer upon layer of defensive magic unfolded from Thursday's body. Thursday also stopped moving, as if preparing to deal with the sky strike. The fortress troll even ridiculously put on an undead bone shield for himself.

It seems that the bone shield has been trained to a high level. This guy is really a coward.

"Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!~~" The successive sky strikes seemed like divine punishment, and the dazzling light obscured the huge body of the floating monster.

When the light faded, thunderclouds formed in the sky and were difficult to disperse, and finally Thursday's huge, unharmed body reappeared, everyone observing from afar gasped.

Well, it is not difficult to understand that it is possible to defend against this kind of attack if one is prepared. Not to mention the humans who observed the situation here, even the demons on the battlefield were cursing in their hearts.

You can defend yourself, but up to now, it seems that Mu Hua has not even used his magic storage items. Are your monsters going to become spirits? Am I the demon general or are you the demon generals? After withstanding more than a dozen heavenly attacks, you can still use your own magic power to cast spells?
Of course, these are no longer important at this point. What is important is that a fortress with defensive capabilities is not the same as a fortress without defensive capabilities.

"Boom! Boom~~" A thick aurora swept out, sweeping across the winged demon in the sky, and finally left scorching marks on the ground.

"Woo~~!" Thursday let out a rare dull roar, as if more than a dozen heavenly strikes were coming towards him, making him very dissatisfied.

It’s not that kind of bullying. Thursday may be lazy, but he has a bad temper.

Aurora, tentacles, and at Thursday's order, the monster followers on it launched wide-area attack magic on the group of demons one after another. They would sweep away the winged demons if they could, and bombard the defensive barrier on the ground if they couldn't.

Thursday seemed to have turned into a war fortress that had launched a full-scale offensive. The winged demons that had been so powerful earlier fled for their lives, and were greeted by the pursuit of evil dragons.

Thursday was still furious, while the evil dragons under Friday's command, with their respective dragon groups, rushed fiercely towards the distant Sky Strike spell casting point.

"Bastard! You are too outrageous!" Facing the crazy Thursday, the demons shouted angrily.

I saw an Antor demon with the shadow of a giant burning behind him flying into the air, waving a battle axe in the hand of the giant, and chopping towards Thursday like a towering pillar.

The Antor demon has a body shape somewhat like a centaur, but its lower body is that of a wolf. This kind of demon does not quite conform to human cognition, because in addition to its human-like upper body, it also has a wolf's head in the lower body.

From a human perspective, the Antor demon is much more deformed than the Centaur.

"Boom!" The huge energy slash split the curtain of death, shattered the protective sky, crushed the soft barrier, and even destroyed some of the bone shield on Thursday's body.

But after one attack, the floating Thursday did not move at all. Mu Hua shot a petrifying magic eye at the Anto demon, but there was no response. This guy had an affinity with high-level earth elements, and Mu Hua lost interest in it in a blink of an eye.

Well, I suspect there is a demon of original sin in this demon army. Although the slogan just now was very powerful, Mu Hua is not very interested in this kind of fighting skills that couldn't even hurt Thursday's Anto demon.

"Puff!" Thursday's tail swept past, and the giant formed by blood and energy had one arm cut off. The demon Anto roared and retreated, re-condensing the shadow.

Magic is powerful, but blood is not for show. Warriors who have reached the blood transformation level are still very fierce.

In addition to their ferocious explosive power, the Colossus Shadows that attack them can only consume their blood and energy, and the damage suffered by the Colossi will not be reflected on their bodies.

Compared to the Colossus, the body of the Antor Demon was too small. Thursday's tail sting was thick, and it was difficult to hit it when the opponent was prepared. The attack method of using a cannon to hit a mosquito was not cost-effective. Thursday did not spray the Aurora on the Antor Demon. The soul tentacles attacked the Antor Demon like a python, and the monsters on it also began to attack the Antor Demon with point-attack magic.

The power of this Anto demon is far from comparable to Thursday's. Facing Thursday's soul tentacles, it can only use the Blood Colossus to intercept and block them.

The first attack was fierce, but then they began to look embarrassed. However, the appearance of the Anto demon also gave a shot of confidence to those frightened winged demons. The scattered winged demons once again shrank around Thursday, trying to delay Thursday in the battle circle.

"Boom! Boom!" The demon army's land combat troops attacked with heavy steps.

If the previous demon tide was a sea wave, then the current demon tide was like a landslide with more tangible oppression.

At this time, Mu Hua, who was looking down from a high place, finally opened his petrifying magic eye. It was like a breeze blowing, and large groups of monsters froze in their tracks during the charge.

"Bang!" The giant shield slammed into the ground with great force, and the earth under the force shook heavily.

There was not much panic, as the monsters seemed to have been prepared for this. No matter whether the monsters were covered by tower shields or stone statues, as long as they were not targeted by Mu Hua, they escaped the fate of being petrified.

Shadow Raid, Shadow Demon!
Countless shadow demons drew shadows on the earth, heading straight towards Mu Hua.

Hiding in the shadows is a way to avoid being petrified by the evil eye.

"Master, these shadow demons should be equipped with very lethal weapons. This is the method that demons usually use to deal with Medusa." Doris, who was beside Mu Hua, reminded again.

"Yeah. Monday!" Mu Hua nodded.

The devil speculated on Mu Hua's combat effectiveness. Similarly, before encountering this demon army, Doris had already analyzed the methods that the devil might use.

In response to Mu Hua's call, Zhou Yi walked forward with his short legs, a ferocious smile appearing on his chubby face.

"Kill!" the child shouted.

Following Zhou Yi's orders, countless shadows also emerged from under the ice rocks behind Mu Hua, and these shadows were like sharp swords lying on the ground, shooting straight towards the dark shadows of the demon army.

Shadow attack, Mu Hua also has it.

Unlike the shadow demons over there who rely more on weapons and equipment, the base of the shadow demons on Mu Hua's side are all hellhounds, large groups of hellhounds that have learned Shadow Attack.

"Ah!" The shadows of both sides met, and the wisps of shadows mixed together, eventually converging into a large shadow, and then screams and wails came from the shadows.

Monday had a smile on his face. His own hellhounds and hellhounds usually roared, barking like sissy dogs. He guessed that there were no casualties among his own dogs.

In order to train this group of hellhounds, Mu Hua has put a lot of effort into them. Although hybrid monsters can be used to create demon followers, Mu Hua does not want to raise them as ornamental breeds.

However, due to many issues such as battle losses, it is not practical to expand the hellhound population by recruiting followers in this way because the cost is too high.

The group of hellhounds under Zhou Yi can be regarded as the foundation of the future hellhound population. If they are given enough training, or a few strong individuals are developed, they can be placed in the courtyard. In the future, even if they are asked to shelter some hellhounds that do not sign the contract, Mu Hua will dare to use them.

It's easy to understand why Cerberus recruited some hellhounds, right? As long as there are enough people to suppress them and let them stay in one place, they will be treated as a demon force and killed if they don't obey. This is normal for demon forces.

There were screams coming from the large shadows, and in some places, there were even flames and lightning appearing from the shadows.

Mu Hua opened his eyes wide and stared at those shadows. From time to time, shadow demons would be forced to emerge from the shadows, and as they emerged from the shadows, what awaited them was petrification.

The demons were a little confused. Shadow demons could be considered scouts among demons who specialized in reconnaissance and assassination. It was not easy for them to gather such a small group of shadow demons. How could the humans hire so many more capable ones?
But as the screams gradually subsided, when the shadows on the battlefield shrank back behind Mu Hua again, when he saw hellhounds and hellhounds carrying the corpses of shadow demons emerging from the shadows.

Hundreds and hundreds of hellhounds, Wotfak!? Hellhounds, what the hell?

Well, never mind what outsiders complained about. Looking at the hundreds of corpses brought back by his own dogs, as well as the weapons in the dogs' mouths, Mu Hua nodded with satisfaction.

All weapons are good weapons, and many of them have special attributes. I can go back and get a few tetanus artifacts, such as Frostmourne, Sword of Victory, etc. Isn’t that enough?

And those corpses are probably a bunch of Shadow Strike skill stones, right?
It's quite effective to let the hellhounds gnaw on the tender skin and flesh of the shadow demons in the shadows. After this battle is over, we can give the surviving dogs a snack.

In the battle between the hellhound and the shadow demon, Mu Hua did suffer some damage, but judging from the result, it was not a loss after all. (End of this chapter)
