Chapter 760 - 322: Plucking the Sun (Part 2)
"♫~Even if despair devours the earth,
we will still sing loudly, fighting endlessly!
For the departed loved ones,
for the promised vows,
we swear by blood,
use bones as shield, and never retreat!"
The battle song sung in ancient tongue now ignited the entire battlefield.
In the sky, the floating fireball became even hotter, radiating an incomparably brilliant light.
The soldiers on the battlefield only felt waves of powerful energy surge into their bodies.
They were filled with indefatigable strength, pain diminished, demons could no longer instill fear!
The rear armies gathered behind the city wall, the city gate creaked~ swung open, revealing a dark entrance.
The Demon Army attacking the city ferociously paused, then collectively turned towards the gate, and charged madly forward.
Their speed was like arrows, suddenly infusing hundreds of people.
But the next moment... bang~ as if struck by a heavy hammer, the demons entering the gate were directly blown back, their flesh and bones utterly crumbled and shattered.
Scattered everywhere.
The next moment, the Princess of the Crown Tribe wearing the Platinum Crown, the master of White Stone City - Rachelia Corona, slowly stepped out from the city gate.
Holding the Ritual Sword in her right hand, the sword tip slanted towards the ground.
Faced with the dense Demon Army like locusts, she lifted the long sword, grasping it tightly with both hands before her chest, the sword tip aimed at the sky.
Her pitch-black eyes fixed ahead, awaiting the moment demons surged again, she suddenly roared.
"Kill!"
From the city gate, a massive force of warriors charged forward with swords.
Rachelia Corona led the charge.
The War Sword in her hand violently swung down at the first demon.
Pssh~
Directly slicing it into two, flesh and blood sprayed, staining the pure black armor with a touch of crimson!
Without any hesitation, she became the spear, leading the army straight into the midst of demons...
Originally capable of suppressing them, the Demon Army now under Rachelia Corona’s lead seemed like eggs and tofu, fractured at a touch.
The human army bulldozed through, crushing all demons in front.
The scene was a bloody explosion.
And at this moment, with the changing tide of battle, the song grew louder and clearer.
"♫~When dawn comes again,
our banner will soar high,
the sun will eternally shine!
Even if we fall, our souls,
will transform to stars
guide the future generations,
keep fighting, until forever!"
The Demon Army was forcibly driven back, the warriors on the city wall couldn’t find the enemy’s presence anymore.
The stronger ones directly leaped from the fifty-meter-high wall, bang~ their legs landed on demon corpses, spraying large blood and shards.
Then they crazily sprinted to join the army ahead.
In the sky.
The Crown of the Sun emitted increasingly fierce and dazzling rays.
As if it was about to melt the entire world.
The demons faced full defeat.
This scene was nothing short of a miracle!
Pushing to a distance of two thousand meters from the city wall, the space rift where demons surged from loomed near!
If these demons could be slain, if these space rifts could be destroyed, White Stone City would be preserved safely!
Endless hope resonated within the warriors’ hearts, the soaring battle song nearly pierced the skies.
Hope was right before them!
Their morale climbed even higher, unstoppable like stones rolling down a mountain.
The Demon Army ahead tried desperately to rush forward, yet couldn’t obstruct the warriors in the slightest.
Entirely crushed!
The scene appeared extremely frantic.
No one had thought the human army could achieve such feats!
At a mere two hundred meters from the space rift, a dark aura suddenly surged from the rift behind.
Like a black lightning bolt, it tore through the void directly, bang~ fiercely struck the Crown of the Sun above.
This scene was too swift and abrupt; no one could stop it, and by the time the crowd reacted, the blazing sun above had dimmed drastically.
Like a campfire doused with cold water, its emitted aura sharply declined.
Simultaneously, all warriors on the battlefield only felt their inexhaustible energy suddenly depleting, the powerful forces added to them were directly siphoned away.
The intensity of the fierce battle brought about bodily emptiness, now viciously struck.
One by one staggering, almost losing their balance.
At this moment, that indomitable momentum shattered directly.
The demon army, which was originally being suppressed and couldn’t turn over, suddenly sensed the enemy’s abrupt weakening and was instantly filled with surprise and delight.
They roared, launching the most terrifying counterattack.
Claws swung, directly flipping the warriors in front over, and the situation suddenly reversed!
The faster the initial charge, the quicker the collapse at this moment.
Charging at the forefront, Rachelia Corona saw the spatial rift close at hand and the dim sun behind, her heart filled with unwillingness and anger.
Just one step short, just one step!!!
Heaven and hell transform in an instant!
She turned her head to the side, and at this moment, the demon army came like a giant wave, directly engulfing the warriors who followed the charge... The scene appeared extremely bloody and cruel.
Even the most determined gaze briefly showed a moment of confusion.
Could it be that the Crown Tribe is really about to be exterminated, and the Divine bloodline is about to be completely severed?
With both hands tightly gripping the ritual sword, originally used to reward subjects, held upright in front of her chest, the tip pointing skyward.
Drop by drop, fresh blood slid from the sword’s blade, bringing a bit of warmth as it dripped onto her hand.
Dark eyes shone with an unyielding light.
"People of the Master of the Crown, my comrades... Charge!"
She took great strides forward, roaring as she rushed toward the demons ahead!
Thud~
Blood exploded, slicing in two.
But unfortunately, no one could follow her footsteps anymore...
Thud~ A demon suddenly appeared at her side, its claws tearing the shoulder, blood exploded open.
The body momentarily dulled in intense pain.
At this moment, more demons surged up, hideous faces, sharp claws and fangs, all were their weapons.
Scar after scar slashed over her body.
Breath rapidly declined.
But Rachelia Corona never stopped for a second, no time for pain, no time for despair, only kill, kill, kill!!
To kill all the demons in front of her clean!
Even if the bloodline of the Master of the Crown is severed here, it falls on the road of the charge!
The bloodline of God will never produce cowards!
Absolutely not!!!
She didn’t even know how long she’d been killing, swing after swing of the sword, demon after demon fell before her.
She felt her breathing become heavy, her limbs grow sluggish, her reactions numb.
Until she stumbled over something, falling to the ground with a thud.
Thud~ Instantly feeling several scars ripping across her body.
Gasping for breath, wanting to struggle to her feet, but this time, she was unable to rise...
Is it to end here?
Truly unwilling.
Feeling the weakness of the body and the piercing pain, peripheral vision glanced at the demons swarming once again, she slowly closed her eyes.
Waiting for death to come.
Thud~
Ah!!
Suddenly, the sound of sharp blades tearing through flesh rang out, demons let out wretched screams.
The imagined pain did not appear, Rachelia Corona waited a moment, then opened her eyes with some confusion.
When she saw the scene in front of her clearly, her heart could not help but tremble.
She saw fierce demons, each growing wings and holding bone swords, were madly slaughtering the surrounding demon army.
These newly appeared demons, the bone swords in their hands could unleash terrifying sword qi.
With each swing, they could grind a massive swarm of enemies ahead to pieces.
The demon army that plunged them into despair, now slaughtered like straw.
The scene gave her an immense shock.
At that moment, she suddenly sensed something, subconsciously turned her head towards White Stone City.
In her pupils, she saw a screen that left her incredulous.
White Stone City’s sky, high above in the air the Crown of the Sun, blazing hot like the sun, the supreme treasure.
At this moment, was being slowly... taken down by a human youth with blood-colored crown, who looked only seventeen or eighteen, eyes as majestic as thunder.
Yes, like picking a fruit from a tree, he gently took it down!
The Crown of the Sun was... a sun!
Rachelia Corona felt some absurdity.
She once dreamed numerous times of touching the Crown of the Sun, but could feel the temperature capable of melting anything from several meters away.
How could anyone touch the Crown of the Sun directly with hand?!
Who is he?
What relationship do these demons have with him?
Countless doubts lingered in her mind.
That figure, taking down the sun, at this moment became extremely mysterious and terrifying.
