Chapter 859 In the Path of the Demons

In the early moments of the battle, Mabel and her group managed to wound the weaker demons with relative ease while trying their best to avoid the stronger ones.

The strongest of the demons began by targeting opponents of their own level. But while they were doing so, these opponents tried to escape them to attack the weaker demons.

Due to the success of these humans in evading the demons at their level, the weaker demons quickly suffered from the enemy's attacks, receiving blows that were difficult to withstand in the early moments of the battle.

With these moves, Mabel's group was able to extract cries of pain from the demons' mouths, weakening the weaker enemies there for their weaker allies to deal with.

"Damned human!" The level 25 demon shouted at Mabel, realizing the enemy's strategy. "If you don't fight me, I'll kill your precious companions!"

With that, the demon tribe woman turned to one of the level 24 Sages in Mabel's group.

"Shit!" Mabel regretted that her plans hadn't worked for long. Seeing that the strongest enemy was targeting the level 24 Sages in her group, she changed her move and flew at high speed to prevent the enemy from hurting any of her men.

Luckily, her speed was very high indeed, and in an instant, she appeared in front of her ally, just in time to block the path of the powerful level 25 demon.

Pow!

Dealing with the enemy's attack head-on, Mabel withstood an attack equal to 70% of her strength, which was painful but not enough to bring her down.

"Indeed, you have a very powerful body, woman!" The level 25 demon said with a smile, seeing Mabel was perfect for the Demon Emperor.

With that information confirmed, she picked up what looked like a shiny crystal and destroyed it with a flick of her fingers.

Mabel looked at the woman and narrowed her eyes, realizing this was no ordinary crystal.

Her companions fighting in the surrounding area did the same, each with a negative feeling.

As they fought the woman's nine companions, the many local Sages sensed 20 portals appearing over Peters City, with numerous groups of demons departing from them.

"Fuck!" A high-ranking Saint watching the battle from afar exclaimed when he saw that the demons who initially attacked them were merely testing the local forces.

The moment their suspicions were confirmed, the real attack began!

With more than 150 demons between levels 19 and 23, including 6 level 24 Sages and 3 level 25 Sages, the local experts were facing a powerful enemy!

"If you want to take this confrontation to its ultimate consequences, so be it!" Mabel realized she couldn't win the way she was fighting.

Thinking to herself, she took the Soul Bone from her spatial ring and didn't hesitate to start absorbing it.

"Let's see who wins! Your alliance or my powers?" She said as she significantly increased the density of spiritual energy around her, drawing the attention of the four level 25 opponents nearby.

"You think we're going to let that happen?" A level 25 male, another demon Lothur had seen earlier, loudly asked as he moved against Mabel.

The other three did the same, leaving the rest of the local Sages to their men.

With so many demons entering the city through the portals in the area, it would only be a matter of time before the entire city was wiped out!

Realizing this, Lothur saw that he could no longer hide.

At the moment he gave the Soul Bones to the Koch Patriarch, Lothur sensed the demons' arrival and moved to attack when the time was right.

But with so many creatures arriving in Peters City, his city, his company, and his allies might fall if he didn't hurry.

Seeing the four level 25 demons approaching Mabel, Lothur used the Space Watch to teleport to where his mother-in-law was.

When he appeared in front of Mabel, the level 25 demons were about 2 meters away from the brown-haired woman when they all noticed a silver-haired, red-eyed man appearing in their path.

As they frowned at the sight of this supposedly dead person, a red mist erupted from Lothur's body and quickly reached them all.

The only one who wasn't hit by it was Mabel, but this fog surrounded her, and if she moved carelessly, she would be finished.

"Since you've come, leave your Soul Bones behind, creatures!" Lothur said in a frightening tone to the four, who felt their souls tremble the moment the red mist touched them.

"Wretch!"

"You're alive! How?"

"The dead don't need to know the truth!" Lothur said as he felt his EVF points increase as he absorbed the life force from those bodies.

The four demons broke into a cold sweat as they felt their features being absorbed by the enemy and put their shock aside to try to escape Lothur's clutches.

If they stayed in contact with the cursed mist for even 30 seconds, they would all perish at Lothur's hands!

"Gather your strength together! At least one of us has to get out of here to warn the Demon Emperor!" One of them shouted as he felt his body rapidly aging.

Lothur heard this and frowned as he felt an immense pressure coming from those demons, something capable of suppressing even his diabolical mist.

If I try to absorb everything from the four, I'll lose them all at the last moment. Lothur did the math in his mind and saw that he was incapable of killing them all at once.

But if I concentrate on just 3 of them, I'll destroy their formation, and only one of them will escape. Narrowing his eyes, he made a decision and changed the pressure of his bloodline ability to affect only the three weakest opponents.

As he did so, the demons realized what was happening, and the fourth of them immediately fled from Lothur's grasp, protecting his own life but also the information about this hard-to-kill enemy.

The moment the strongest demon escaped Lothur's grasp, the other three found themselves helpless against their adversary, losing all chance of escaping this terrible enemy.

In just 15 seconds, they all turned to dust, leaving behind only their platinum-grade Soul Bones.

[EVF: 14 -> 99.259]

Knowing that he had to save his city, Lothur didn't hesitate to turn everything he had into soul power to increase the range of his bloodline ability.
