With this in mind, the three high-ranking demons turned their attention back to the cage, hoping to at least reduce the number of these people.
……
Main city!
The Tai family patriarch stood atop a tall building, looking worriedly at the distant demon army.
As the camp of the demon army, it naturally had corresponding measures to shield and detect, thus isolating a large distance, so even the Tai family patriarch could not find out anything.
Even though he couldn't find out, the Tai family patriarch could sense an impending storm, and those abyssal demons were definitely plotting something.
If a prolonged siege proves fruitless, anyone with a modicum of intelligence would not foolishly continue wasting time.
Unfortunately, he was the only Gold-level demon in the main city, so he couldn't interrupt the demons' actions at all, and didn't even dare to get close.
If he were to fall into the enemy's trap, the entire Blackwater City would be doomed.
"I hope it's just my imagination!" The Tai family patriarch clenched his fists, and could only comfort himself with this thought, otherwise he would feel a little breathless.
Looking at the professionals fighting against numerous demons below the main city, his ancestor's serious expression turned relieved.
Many members of the family have also chosen to step out of their comfort zones, take on responsibilities, and actively participate.
Although countless people died or were injured, it did indeed allow a group of outstanding young talents to emerge.
If they can successfully survive this demonic invasion, a new Gold-level member may be born in the family.
"We must win."
The Tai family patriarch made up his mind that once this war ended and a new gold-level expert was born in the family, he planned to travel the continent. Staying in this small place all the time was not conducive to his career path.
Boom...
Just then, a wave of intense heat suddenly swept in from the distant demon army, giving one the feeling that their soul was about to be dragged into hell, even from a great distance.
woo woo woo...
Unexplained horn sounds rang out, and a massive army of demons marched forward once more, heading towards the main city.
The demon army was vast and boundless, stretching as far as the eye could see. The intense demonic aura threatened to plunge the entire world into the abyss.
"Have they chosen to launch a full-scale attack?" The Tai family patriarch's expression was solemn. Even a Golden Patriarch would be strangled to death in such a terrifying army of demons.
"There are even more than before. Could it be that they have finally made contact with the Abyss?"
Looking at the demon army, whose numbers were clearly abnormal, it became obvious what the horned demon had been doing during this time: it had finally re-established communication with the Abyss.
Although the main city's defenses are strong, the demons can easily break through them with sheer numbers.
"Gulu..."
The professionals who were fighting the demons did not know the exact number of the demon army, but the immense pressure still made them feel fear involuntarily.
"Activate the defensive formation to its maximum!" The Tai family patriarch hurriedly gave the order. At such a critical moment, he, as the backbone of the family, could not afford to panic.
"Yes!"
The golden curtain rose again, separating the main city from the outside world into two distinct realms.
"above!"
Suddenly, a huge black shadow appeared in the sky above the main city.
"Is this the essence of the main world?"
The fire demon, emerging from the lava, looked down at the city with a mocking expression.
Beneath the Balrog's feet, a colossal lava rock, resembling an extinguished star, floated in mid-air.
Strands of flame patterns flowed continuously from the fire demon into the molten stone, causing the quality of the molten stone to increase dramatically.
"A new high-ranking demon!"
The Tai family patriarch looked at the enormous creature that had appeared above his head with an extremely ugly expression.
Rumble…
At this moment, the ground beneath the feet of the Tai family patriarch suddenly trembled, as if the whole world was shaking.
"Horned Demon!"
In front of the main city, the horned demon reappeared, constantly trampling the earth.
Even through the golden curtain, the Tai family patriarch could feel the bull-horned demon's constant sarcasm.
However, at this moment, the Tai family patriarch had no time to pay attention to such emotional fluctuations, and only had one thought in his mind.
"How can we defend ourselves?"
Two terrifying forces, one in the sky and one on the ground, have completely targeted the main urban area.
With a vast army of demons ready to provide support, even the seemingly impregnable defensive barrier began to crumble.
Facing the gazes of the surrounding family heads, the Tai family patriarch was momentarily speechless.
Without keeping the Tai family patriarch waiting any longer, the earth dragon beneath his feet turned over, and the huge molten rock in the sky "slowly" descended.
A massive amount of air was directly expelled, and although the professionals were highly adaptable to the environment, they felt a sense of suffocation as soon as they looked up.
"attack!"
The Tai family patriarch set his sights on the giant lava rock in the sky, intending to eliminate this threat first.
Boom!
Two divine bolts of lightning shot out from the main city and crashed directly into the massive lava rock above.
"Ha ha!"
The fire demon, standing on molten stone, looked at the incoming attack and immediately revealed a mocking smile, then directly blasted it apart from a distance.
In an instant, a terrifying burst of lightning exploded in mid-air, adding to the majestic power of the falling meteorite.
Seeing this scene, the Tai family patriarch felt extremely heavy-hearted; yet another top-tier high-ranking demon had emerged.
Tear!
Just as they hesitated, the molten stones from both sides suddenly accelerated and slammed into the golden barrier.
The terrifying power instantly caused cracks to appear on the golden barrier. Although the huge molten rock shattered directly, the array that maintained the barrier also collapsed uncontrollably.
The power from the sky was crashing down, and the earth dragon beneath our feet was roaring. The entire main city seemed to have been abandoned by the world.
"withstand!"
The Tai family patriarch roared, ordering all the professionals to perform their duties and continuously inject power into the golden barrier through the array's network.
Whoohoo!
Just then, a huge tornado suddenly swept in, swirling up the ground beneath their feet and the broken molten rock in the sky.
Hard rubble mixed with fire, amplified by the raging tornado, relentlessly sliced through the golden barrier like wind blades.
"There's another high-ranking demon!" The Tai family patriarch's eyes widened, feeling that he was starting to feel the strain.
With the combined attack of the three high-ranking demons—earth, fire, and wind—the once impenetrable barrier suddenly developed cracks, like a broken eggshell.
And the heart of the Tai family patriarch, like this barrier, gradually crumbled.
"Give it to me...break it!"
Seeing the cracks appearing in the golden barrier, the horned demon closest to it didn't hesitate at all. It ducked and kicked directly into the crack in the barrier.
With a snap, the hard bull horn pierced right through.
Then the horned demon unleashed a burst of power, and the fire demon and wind demon also attacked simultaneously, the three forces pouring onto the crack in an instant.
Click!
A crisp sound rang out, along with the shattering of numerous professionals in the main city.
Chapter 831 Desperate Professionals
Battle for the Royal City!
One after another, self-destructing demons relentlessly clung to the barrier, eroding the defensive structure with their highly corrosive demonic power.
As the abyss, the opposite of the world, demonic power has a neutralizing effect on most forces.
A drop of thick demonic power fell to the ground, instantly corroding a deep pit.
The once pristine barrier was now covered with large patches of thick, black liquid.
Fortunately, as long as the defensive barrier is not worn down to a critical point, it provides all-round defense, is very balanced, and has no weak points.
Another group of professionals who had gone out of the city to meet the enemy dragged their tired bodies back into the barrier.
call out!
Just then, Huo, who had been hiding in the shadows, suddenly caught up with them.
"not good!"
Upon seeing the high-ranking demon appear, the professional who had just passed through the barrier panicked instantly.
In their current state, if they encounter a high-ranking demon, they could be instantly killed.
Bang!
Fortunately, they acted quickly, and the barrier was effective, managing to keep the fire out.
Having decided to leave the city to fight, they naturally took this situation into account, so they were very careful every time they returned, not wanting to be easily caught by the demons.
"hey-hey!"
Huo Yi punched the barrier, creating ripples, and his ugly face peered through the barrier at the nearest professional.
Being stared at like that by a high-ranking demon, even the professionals who had just finished their slaughter couldn't help but shudder.
"Do you really think that something like this can withstand the power of the abyss?" Huo Yi sneered.
Although the barrier's defenses are strong, it's impossible for it to remain completely unaffected after such a long period of attacks by the demons.
Not to mention, Fire One would also occasionally launch surprise attacks on the barrier, putting immense pressure on the class responsible for it.
