mechanical court

Whoosh-!

The slender index finger turned into a black line, across Ibudu's throat, and blood spurted out.

"Who... are you?" Just before the end of his life, he forced himself to spit out the last syllable.

The female killer brushed past Ibdu, looked back at his limp body, raised her hand to cover the corner of her mouth, and showed a coquettish smile in the darkness: "Jiang, no...it's Claire!"

one-one-one-one

At the same time as the royal court stayed behind to suppress the rebellion, the vigorous demon hunting war also kicked off.

The so-called demon hunting war is not a head-to-head confrontation in the traditional sense, because the fear beasts rarely play this game, and what they are best at is stealth and concealment.Therefore, this war was closer to a large-scale sweeping campaign. Before the army set off, all local troops, including militias, garrison troops, security forces, and border guards, were ordered to form an isolation network.

During the war, the local traffic was kept absolutely closed, and no one was allowed to pass except the food delivery team led by the demon hunter.Its mission is to force the fear beasts to show up and flee, and gather into groups to facilitate their elimination one by one.As for the part that couldn't escape, Yiwen naturally had nowhere to hide when he came, and he still couldn't escape death.

In the rear of the vast army, among the guards of the Holy Army, Reni drove the sun chariot forward without slowing down, while Ivan sat on the car seat and fiddled with a tablet computer.

The reason why this tablet can still be used is that he has naturally 'enchanted' it with light energy. It is linked to the consortium's ground satellite, and every plant and tree in any area of ​​the empire can be clearly seen.

Not only that, but on the consortium's space fortress, there are hundreds of employees helping to keep an eye on it.Once there is a group of fear beasts, the local Ivan and local officials (computers that have been equipped with light energy enchantment) will be notified immediately, so that they can dispatch troops to kill them.

Beep-beep-beep!

Yiwen was checking the local terrain when a communication notification suddenly came from the screen, and the identity information of the correspondent was orange.

"How is things going?" He clicked on the call button and said looking at the dark screen.

"According to the master's order, the rebels in the royal court only punished the culprits, and all the rest were surrendered. The leaders of the six major families were wiped out. Except for Ganis, the head of the Garrison Academy, who was shot dead, all the heads of the houses, together with the family members, were killed. A total of more than [-] people were captured... Without the order of the master, Claire did not dare to make decisions without authorization, but the meaning of the cabinet is that it will be dealt with after the master returns." While speaking, Claire lit a white stick in her hand. Candles, illuminating Ibdu's body on the floor behind him.

"Kill them all, I don't want to see them. These vacancies are temporarily filled by lower-level officials. If they perform well, they will become regulars. The cabinet should know how to do specific operations." Ivan waved his hand, his eyes showing boredom.

"Then you have to tell the people in the cabinet in person, what Claire says doesn't matter." The female killer stuck out her tongue playfully.

"I know."

Yiwen nodded slightly, turned his gaze, and suddenly asked, "What about my cousin, what's her reaction?"

"Desperate, almost numb, like a puppet at my mercy." Claire smiled after describing Ellome's performance, and continued to applaud happily: "This plan is also thanks to her cooperation." , if she hadn't been setting traps for those traitors, it definitely wouldn't have been so successful."

"Don't be fooled by her current disguise... This woman is definitely not so fragile!" Ivan warned seriously.

"Don't worry, I remember her smell, no matter where I flee, I can't escape from my grasp." Claire covered her mouth and smiled lightly, her brows were filled with a kind of coquettish, indescribably bright and moving.

"Well, that's it." Ivan said and hung up the communication.

After interrupting the communication with the female killer, he focused his attention on the satellite map again, scanned south from the current position of the army, and soon found a large desert oasis.

"Lenny, what's that oasis up ahead?" he asked aloud.

"Your Majesty, there is only Aswan Oasis nearby." Renee replied clearly.

"Well, continue to go south, we will repair there tonight." Ivan found that the environment there was good, so he decided to camp here.

Chapter 20 Demon Hunting War ([-])

Just when the demon hunting army was about to enter the Aswan Oasis, Yiwen suddenly felt a chilly feeling passing over his body. It was a kind of foresight in the dark, and he sensed that something dangerous was coming in the dark. spy on.

"Stop advancing, the whole army is on alert!" His voice was not loud, but it could reach the ears of all soldiers.

Swish-!

The army immediately opened up the defensive formation, and the heavy infantry formed a square formation, and at the same time stretched the front horizontally around the oasis.The Holy Knights protected the two wings of the front line, and the artillery unit pushed the receding breech-loading artillery forward along the gap in the phalanx.The bazooka troops quickly occupied the high ground, and the Demon Hunt Squad and the Holy Helms formed a long column and stood by.

"His Majesty?"

Renee looked back at Ivan, only to see that pair of eyes as dark as night lit up with golden flames, as if molten liquid gold was rolling in the flames.

In the next moment, she saw an invisible ripple spreading in all directions centered on Ivan.It was like a bolt of lightning striking a metal object, causing the metal object to completely lose its proper color, leaving only the basic outline woven by the current.This basic line structure swept over all the surrounding green vegetation, and then it seemed that the entire oasis turned into a network structure in an instant, only to return to its original state in an instant.

"It seems that the satellite map also has errors..."

Ivan stood up from the sun imperial chariot, and held his hands up to the sky, his palms were soon filled with strands of molten golden current: "Faced with such a realistic disguise, even I was almost blinded... burn it with fire. Burning it will probably work!"

Above the sky, a bright spot appeared in the middle of the dense clouds, like a morning star rising in the dark.

The bright spot expanded rapidly, and the golden light penetrated several kilometers of clouds, shot down from directly above, and shone in a circle centered on the oasis.

It was like stabbing a sword of light from the sky, and a sacred beam of light traversed between the sky and the earth!

boom--!

The beam of light pierced through the shielding of the canopy and hit the ground directly, and a huge ball of light seemed to rise from the top of the oasis.The ball of light rapidly expanded to reach the sky and the earth, because it was too bright and dazzling, as if it made the world around it slightly dark.

Then the deafening explosion that almost tore through the air swept across like a shock wave, bringing high-temperature burned ashes to spew towards the edge of the oasis.The golden beams of light shot towards the ground one after another, forming a rumbling noise, forming a high-pitched and piercing scream, as if a wave of fury followed one after another.

"..."

In this world flooded by explosions and roars, everyone was horrified to see a mushroom cloud quickly engulfing the oasis, and the mushroom-shaped appearance began to collapse as it expanded, and the cotton-like outer shell shattered in an instant.Water-like impacts swept out from it, and the smoke continued to spread in all directions like clouds, engulfing the entire forest in an instant.

As the mushroom cloud continued to expand, the dense bushes, upright trees, and rolling mounds, everything turned into a sea of ​​flames, and the scorching breath rushed towards us.The clothes under the armors of all the people danced wildly in the strong wind, and in the blink of an eye, the whole oasis fell apart in their eyes.

In just three seconds, the shock wave has engulfed the entire oasis like a tsunami, turning everything into ashes.

But... the oasis, which seems to be dense and wild, hides buildings that are incompatible with this place.

Under the sky full of ashes and smoke, seven dark green pointed towers are exposed to everyone's vision. Their bodies are covered with green leaf-like patterns, almost blending with the forest of the oasis.It is precisely for this reason that the satellite map did not see the clues.

The towers hidden in the forest are not only totem symbols, but also cover a small area nearby with a transparent and invisible curtain, completely isolating the internal and external spaces.The defensive power is so strong that even a map cannon full of light energy can't do anything about it.

The towering buildings are so eye-catching that they can almost echo the moon above the clouds.As if unable to bear their weight, even the rock-paved ground was cracked.The turbid black mist is like a majestic waterfall.From the sky above the towers, poured out from the black cracks that gradually opened, and the gradually diffuse cold aura made everything around it sink into a deathly silence.

"Your Majesty...is that the obelisk of the Empire?" Renee asked in surprise.

"No...Compared to towers...they are more like some kind of portal, which can connect to another dark time and space." Ivan replied by feeling.

"Then destroy it immediately!" The female adjutant immediately became nervous.

"Don't worry, this dark power is nothing... It's not as strong as the evil disaster that I encountered three years ago. The ability of these towers should be to summon fear beasts on a large scale, and let them gather to form a large disaster to cause destruction ... Isn't it just the right way for us to annihilate them in one fell swoop!?"

Yiwen didn't have any worries at this time, because he could accurately judge the level of the nightmare aura. The nightmare aura in front of him was neither strong nor weak, which was just right for training soldiers.

one-one-one-one

Accompanied by a low roar that seemed to come from a distant time and space, the black cracks above the towers slowly opened.The demon hunting army stood at a far enough distance, silently watching the huge crack that almost covered the entire area.

Sigh——————!

Thick blue-white electric arcs emerge from the black cracks, symbolizing that they are condensing and climbing to the apex, and the ripple-like fluctuations radiate outward along the lines of the air.Even a warrior who knows nothing about the tower can easily feel the aura of the dark monster at this moment.
