Chapter 1270: The Fall of the Dark (II)
Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem
Only after a few minutes, the airboat had been hundreds of miles away; additionally, it was still ascending constantly. Sitting in the airboat, Childe Deng looked completely pale. Quivering all over, he saw those giant, despairing monsters drilling out of the earth one after another through the optical imaging device.
They looked like huge earthworms or centipedes.
After these monsters drilled out of the earth, they left many huge and pitch-dark bottomless holes which seemingly led to the abyss in the hell and looked like the mouths of devils which were going to devour everything.
Even the huge airboat became slim compared to those things.
Childe Deng’s teeth were quivering.
The airboat was constantly ascending. However, the higher he was, the more fearful would Childe Deng feel. Such a terrifying monster would drill out of the earth every hundred miles. There were not only 1 or 2 monsters, but there were also numerous monsters as far as he could see.
It looked like a pile of earthworms drilling out of the earth. Childe Deng was scared so much.
Soon after these things drilled out of the earth, all the birds within thousands of miles had flown off. At this moment, numerous mutated beasts just escaped towards far like tides instead of attacking each other.
At this moment, even the least intellectual wild beast had sensed the fear of the doomsday as they escaped in all directions.
The old man was shouting as loudly as he could in the command room with a pale look, “Ascend...ascend...ascend it to the highest altitude at the greatest speed...”
The greatest speed of the airboat was just close to the sonic speed in the air. However, the airboat could only reach the middle region of the stratosphere at most.
Everybody in the airboat had been scared so much that their faces had turned completely pale.
“What...what...are...those things...drilling out of the earth?” Childe Deng stammered.
“They...they are demons’ war fortresses...” The steward replied in a quivering voice.
Soon after he finished his words, the steward had felt something as he changed his face greatly. Before he made any response, the airboat had been collapsed. Childe Deng and the others on the airboat were directly shattered by the unimaginable power together with the airboat...
The steward was severely injured as he flew backward at his utmost effort towards the east...
Bang...
A black light flashed by while the steward who was less than 500 m away from the airboat immediately exploded into blood foam in the air. In the strong wind of the stratosphere, it soon disappeared.
At such a high altitude, a 4-m higher wing demon with 6 wings and a longhorn in a crown that represented that it was a demon prince suspended in the stratosphere, releasing the powerful qi of a heavenly knight. He looked at the east at the end of the wilderness with flickering, bloody eye light quietly and icily. It seemed that it was just a piece of cake for it to shatter the airboat and kill that human knight.
Beneath this wing demon, a flock of wing demons suddenly flew out of a dark, bottomless cave.
There were 400-500 wing demon knights. Wing demon knights could even fly without the help of wings. However, they could fly faster in a more flexible way by flapping wings...
After flying around the wing demon prince for a few seconds, they flew towards 4 directions by batches...
After these wing demon knights flew away for a few seconds, tens of thousands of wing demons started to fly out of the caves like rats that flew out of deep mountains and woods. They flew towards all directions like locusts over the sky and black clouds...
Those wing demons were at least LV 9. They were more than that Zhang Tie had seen in Waii Subcontinent. Actually, they were numerous...
The wing demon prince turned around and looked at his back while the 6 brothers of Mangshan Mountain lost their qi of vitality immediately.
On the vast land covering hundreds of millions of square miles, tens of thousands of demon corps, large batches of demon knights and overwhelming wing demons constantly poured out of the black holes, which seemingly linked the earth surface to the demon’s world...
On this occasion, the black human knight who had disappeared in the sky and the 6 brothers of Mangshan Mountain who had disappeared on the earth just looked like a trivial ripple in the huge billows.
When the demon corps and demon knights constantly poured out of the earth, those demons’ war fortresses were also converting their forms.
Their “steel scales” fell off the demons’ war fortresses first.
Those “steel scales” were not dead. All the “steel scales” were living beings like hermit crabs and spiders. Being as large as a millstone, they were flat with a scale-like hard shell on their back. They could completely hide their limbs under their shells in order to live on the demons’ war fortresses.
After these “steel scales” fell off the demons’ war fortresses, they scattered in all directions, exposing the tender and tangled bloody flesh inside the demons’ war fortress. The huge demons’ war fortress then started to shrink while its long feet deepened into the earth like crisscrossed roots of a towering odd-look tree. At the same time, it injected its blood and body fluid into the earth through its feet. After a short while, the land had gradually become dark brown. Meanwhile, it smelt bloody; the plant leaves on the earth started to change their colors too...
During this process, the land was changing its color. The demons’ war fortresses were also slowly turning gray and as hard as wood.
Bloody, thick, sliced tree leaves grew out of the demons’ war fortress. The huge mouthparts of the demons’ war fortress started to exhale black smoke which gradually suffused in the air...
Only after a short while, clusters of bizarre fruits had grown out beneath those leaves. As a result, the demons’ war fortress turned into a plant form from an animal form...
...
Those “steel scales” that fell off the demons’ war fortresses could move as flexibly and fast as LV 6 human fighters. The moment those “steel scales” started to move, they had started to capture all the living beings on the earth.
When those “steel scales” met weaker animals, they would rapidly siege and nip preys by their huge pliers which looked like that of cancers; when they met stronger animals, they would spit glue-like mucilage, which could fly over 50 m and gradually glued those preys, poisoning them, weakening them and making them unable to move. After that, all the “steel scales” would swarm up and draw the preys back into their fortresses...
A swarm of hundreds of springboks was captured by those “steel scales”. After being captured, those springboks would be thrown into the demons’ war fortresses’ huge mouthparts which were full of black mucilage...
As a result, those fruits beneath the thick leaves grew faster...
It was a catastrophe on the earth...
In a few hours, more and more demons’ war fortresses had completed their form transformation and more and more demons corps had poured out of the earth.
The land was changing its color while the black smoke turned increasingly thicker and wider, forming a black heavenly curtain that covered hundreds of millions of square miles...
In the center of all the demons’ war fortresses, a larger war fortress as high as 10,000 m completed its final form transformation. 9 crowned demon knights were standing on the platform at the highest point of the war fortress which had just completed its form transformation. Over 100,000 demon knights in some major formations were standing still in the sky facing a knight who wore a grim, full black armor while holding a huge fork which was giving out black flame at the highest throne of the fortress.
With an illusory and disorderly imposing manner, the look of the demon knight at the highest throne was not clear. After the 9 demon princes gave a salute to that demon knight, he moved his hand while a meters high diamond-shaped crystal being covered with bizarre runes appeared in his hand while giving out purplish-red light. After injecting a bizarre qi into that crystal, the demon knight tossed that crystal high and had it suspend at the highest point of the war fortress. Closely after that, a blurry vertical eye appeared in the crystal, which directly looked at the east...
“The dominating demon god’s eye is watching you and protecting you. Go, go destroy the enemies that the dominating demon god abhors most...”
The demon knight pointed the burning huge fork to the east...
