Chapter 755: Balzarna (2)
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When the five thousand sixth-tier units were all assembled, Ji Chen immediately activated the Resurrection Altar, resurrecting the first batch of fallen units, including the esteemed Light Sea Sovereign who had performed great deeds.
They didn’t charge out like before, knowing that the effectiveness of such a strategy would diminish after one use.
This time, they chose to merge.
[Fusion of Spirits (Orange Skill, Light Sea Sovereigns can merge with each other, condensing into more powerful individual fusion entities. The more units merged, the stronger they become, with a maximum fusion of 500 units).]
Every hundred Light Sea Sovereigns merged into a golden giant over ten meters tall, charging into the enemy ranks like a war chariot after activating their spirit forms.
In the pitch-black abyss of the demonic sea, these golden giants stood out remarkably, wielding various weapons and wreaking havoc recklessly with their formidable spirit forms, tearing apart demons one by one, trampling them underfoot, and even stuffing demon heads into their bodies.
Their dazzling golden light seemed to become the sun of the sea.
For a full thirty minutes, several golden giants slaughtered over three thousand demons, including formidable sixth-tier high-level demon units.
The dazzling golden light greatly boosted morale.
The endless array of tactics and powers from the Crown of the Ocean gave all allies a strong sense of security.
So what if there’s a Demon Lord?
So what if there’s a million-strong demon army?
They were all held back here for over a week, going crazy against the city walls but unable to make any progress.
Even if the Elven Empire came to battle in person, they could only achieve this much!
After enduring several days of fierce battles, the morale of the Crown of the Ocean not only did not decline but reached an unprecedented high.
Seeing this situation, Babatos finally couldn’t sit still, abandoning the last trace of pride and disdain.
The southern sky was suddenly covered by thick clouds as dark as ink, instantly shrouding the sky over the New Moon Islands. Only a faint ray of sunlight could penetrate, but it was completely obscured, dimming the world.
The sea breeze seemed to sense the approach of extreme malice, howling wildly and whipping up waves that crashed against the city walls, splashing into bursts of broken foam.
However, the demon soldiers showed no fear, but rather shouted excitedly, their eyes filled with fanaticism.
They knew that the great Dreadlord had arrived!
A thick black mist slowly flew into the sky, evil and ominous without concealment, but when many people looked up, they were blocked by the black mist and couldn’t see what was inside.
The more so, the more excited the demons became, shouting and responding to each other, their voices seemingly drowning out the sound of the waves.
Elisya’s face showed some annoyance, and she raised her strong bow to release an arrow.
[Piercing Strike Across the Stars (Orange Skill, unleashes an elementally charged arrow with extremely high piercing power, increasing penetration by 1000%, accompanied by armor penetration, grievous wounds, and a locked-on effect, containing a certain chance of instant death).]
This skill had made demon heroes suffer greatly in this war. Within a certain range, they had no way to avoid such attacks. Every shot took down a demon hero.
However, this arrow, which could easily slay a Red-Legacy Tier demon, unexpectedly got stuck when it reached the black mist, being corroded into the most primitive elemental energy by the mist.
A sharp sound like nails scraping against glass slowly emanated.
“Elves with ancient elf bloodline? But unfortunately, they are just minor legendary beings.”
Upon hearing this, the supporting elves all had a sudden change in their facial expressions, their eyes showing a slight hint of eagerness.
I_Love_Black_Stockings noticed the elves’ reaction and asked softly, “What’s ancient elf bloodline, and why are these elves’ eyes glowing?”
The Kobold Strategist whispered, “Currently, the ancestors of the elven race are ancient elves. The higher and purer the bloodline, the easier it is to give birth to powerful descendants…”
“Keep it short!”
“…Simply put, the bloodline of this Islander elf hero is remarkable. If such bloodlines could reach the Elven Empire, it would allow the elven race to produce more offspring with higher-level bloodlines.”
“Damn, isn’t this just breeding?” I_Love_Black_Stockings muttered softly, “No, we must protect these beautiful elven ladies.”
“…In essence, that’s about it. But the difference lies in being powerful enough to not worry about such matters,” the Kobold Strategist said. “There’s nothing to fear. With the Islander being so powerful, it’s estimated that even the Elven Empire wouldn’t dare to provoke.”
The Kobold Strategist shook his head and said, “Even the boss of the demons has come out personally, so it’s likely that the Islander will also make a move.” Upon hearing Bahama’s words that revealed her identity, Elisya felt a slight annoyance in her heart. She was about to raise her hand to shoot another arrow, but she was stopped by a voice that came to her ear.
Turning her head, she saw that Ji Chen had already come to her side at some point.
“My Lord!”
“It’s okay, I’ll deal with him.”
Knowing that she was no match for Balzarna, Elisya nodded obediently and stepped back.
Ji Chen stood with his hands behind his back, looking calmly at the looming black fog, suddenly smiling.
“Famous for reputation rather than appearance. As one of the Five Lords of the Chaotic Abyss, you actually dare not show your true face. It seems I have overestimated you…Indeed, being driven to flee by us, unable to make any progress for a whole week, it appears that the so-called Dreadlord is nothing more than this.”
I_Love_Black_Stockings rolled her eyes. Such strong attack!
Is this the mockery between powerful beings?
The black fog obscured his figure and also hid Balzarna’s reaction. Only eerie words were heard.
“Sharp-tongued humans, I hope you can still speak like this later.”
The towering black fog gushed out, spreading towards the city walls like a tide. Even the air carried a smell of sulfur, and within the black fog, there seemed to be ferocious beasts surging, gnashing their teeth and claws, as if they wanted to devour the creatures in front of them.
Herald and the other heroes’ faces changed drastically, quickly retreating. They felt extreme danger.
The demons cheered, celebrating the action of their king.
But only Ji Chen floated forward with the support of the sea, his robes billowing in the sea breeze. Within this slender figure, erupted a power capable of overturning mountains and seas.
I_Love_Black_Stockings and the others widened their eyes, afraid of missing anything. This was their first time witnessing a battle between epic-level powerhouses.
“Hehehe, such young epic-tier beings. If they were to fall, I’m afraid your orderly fraction would also feel some heartache.”
Balzarna chuckled evilly but didn’t stop his actions, as the black fog laden with malice swept over.
Ji Chen remained calm, saying lightly, “If you think you can kill me, then come at me.”
As the black fog was about to envelop them, Ji Chen raised his hand calmly.
Thousands of tons of seawater surged up, forming a water curtain that separated heaven and earth. Like a shield, it blocked the incoming black fog, which sizzled upon contact with the water’s surface, fiercely corroding it.
Yet, it couldn’t advance even an inch.
The black fog, like living beings, turned into ferocious beasts with fangs, gnawing away. But then, thousands of water blades rose from both sides of the sea, piercing through them.
The ferocious beasts, pierced but not destroyed, turned back into black fog and retreated a hundred meters before condensing into huge predatory birds, fiercely rushing again…
Ji Chen and Balzarna fought each other, exchanging blows. The black fog and seawater seemed to transform into the most versatile forms in the world, turning into weapons, beasts, or birds.
Energy surged in the sky, the elements were extremely chaotic, and every collision caused spatial turbulence. Ordinary beings and heroes caught in it would turn into dust in an instant.
This was a battle belonging to epic-tier beings, and non-epic beings couldn’t interfere.
Amidst the exchange of blows, the black fog around Balzarna gradually dissipated, revealing his true form.
On a body that seemed to emanate hatred, several different demonic arms were stitched together, with one side bearing the wings of a winged demon, while the other side had bat wings. The obese and bloated body was constantly emitting strands of black fog.
