Chapter 1424 The King's Last Stand!
-----
"We've defeated several of them already! Don't give up hope!"
The King of Luminous roared, as he inspired his troops to continue the battle. Planta's Domain had become weaker due to the spread of the Hellish Domain of Merlinus, but some of her powerful buffs and healing abilities remained, keeping the army of soldiers and warriors strong enough.
Along the way, several dozens of Players ended joining them as they battled the Demonic Beasts and the Demonic Wizards, with no other option than to battle themselves, the Players were forced to assist the Army of the Luminous Kingdom.
The King glanced into the battlefield, there were still about thirty Demonic Wizards and around fifty Demonic Beasts spread through the devastated city. There had been many casualties too, with around forty percent of their army now dead.
Planta's power could only help them so much before they ended being overwhelmed. But their foes were already cornered as well. With over seventy percent of their army gone, and without any more Demonic Beasts coming from the Hell Hole, which seemed to have finally turned off, things looked to be slightly in the favor of the humans.
"CHARGE!"
The King gathered his troops and charged forward, as they ambushed a group of dozens of Demonic Beasts feasting on the corpses of human soldiers and demonic wizards.
The Demonic Beasts, some of them resembling brutish giants, others were lanky, long-legged creatures, and others were green-skinned bald bats with massive brains in their heads and long tongues, they had all shapes and sizes and resembled even more lethal forms of monsters.
The King, equipped with his golden armor and the powerful Heroic Sword, had awakened his Heroic Bloodline, unleashing devastating attacks against the Demonic Beasts.
"Heyaaaa!"
With a ferocious yell, the King charged forward, his heavy mechanical armor clanking on the ground as his massive sword was swung down and then upwards, and then to the left and right.
Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire
"{Heroic Holy Cross}!"
SLAAASH!
A massive slashing wave made of holy light slashed through and pierced through the bodies of several Demonic Beasts at once, killing them on the spot!
The flying ones screamed, spitting acid at him from afar.
"Your majesty!"
"Watch out!"
"Move aside!"
His knights rushed to defend him, placing magic shields and physical shield armor in front of him and quickly taking the projectiles. The armor quickly melted, as one of the knights received several burns, his skin melting agonizingly.
"Gyaaaahh!"
"Fool! I could've evaded on my own!"
The King rushed to his help, using his Healing Magic, awakened with his Heroic Bloodline, to heal his wounds, the man however had fallen unconscious already.
"Priests! Bring this man to the camp where the wounded are!"
"Yes!"
Two priests ran into the battlefield and carried away the soldier, a camp had been established inside one of Planta's powerful Divine Barriers made using her Angelic Abilities
"And you…!"
He quickly glared at the flying creatures, as he gathered his Mana into his sword again, pointing at them, he remembered that Planta had taught him an attack that manifested as arrows, even though he used a sword.
"Long-ranged attacks, attack the flying demonic beasts!"
As he said that, suddenly, three Demonic Wizards appeared from the west, firing giant beams of demonic flames at his soldiers.
"Gyahahahah! Die you bastards!"
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"Some of them are still around here?!"
The King panicked, quickly pointing his sword at them, only for the flying demonic beasts to fire more acid bullets.
He was forced to choose between his own life or that of his soldiers.
"D-Dammit!"
He quickly twisted his body, attacking the flying monsters with his sword, as he punctured space itself with his blade, generating a rain of dozens of arrow attacks.
"{Sun Flare Arrows}!"
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
At the same time as he did that, he pointed his spare hand at the Demonic Wizards, firing a laser beam of pure sunlight against them.
"{Holy Sunlight Beam}!"
TRUUUM!
The beam hit the wizard closest to him, burning him and scaring him momentarily, the other two managed to evade his spell, which wasn't even as strong as their own.
"The King's there!"
"Kill the fucker!"
"We'll eat his heart out and make him watch!"
The once respected wizards had turned completely mad with power, laughing viciously as they rushed towards the King, unleashing devastating magic which he could hardly defend against after all the damage he had endured.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"Nnnggh…! Dammit, they aren't even letting me defend or counterattack!"
The King groaned as he placed a Light Shield in front of him, but it continuously broke apart. And whenever his knights came to his rescue, the demonic wizards would throw them away with powerful traps they set up around the field.
"It's useless you bastards, it's time for a cleansing of this entire damned place!"
"We'll burn the forest of beginnings once we're done here too!"
"We are not stopping until the entire continent burns to the ground, Gyahahaha!"
The Demonic Wizards, resembling red, black, and green skinned demonic humanoids with long beards and wizard clothes torn apart wrapped around their bodies, giggled viciously, some were bulkier, others lanky, one of them was small, but had several eyes across his body.
Although he could faintly recognize them a bit, the King felt immensely frustrated when he saw how monstrous they became, they completely forbade their entire humanity to become stronger. Leaving behind their families, legacies, emotions and love, all for power!
"You're nothing but trash, you bastards…!"
FLAAASH!
His Aura erupted with tremendous power, resembling a miniature sun! The magic they were firing at the King was suddenly reflected by his ever-growing aura.
"I've heard Planta is the hero of this Era, but I, as someone with the Hero Bloodline, cannot let her have the title all on her own!"
The King roared, manifesting and channeling more and more of his inner potential, releasing it to the world, as the skies suddenly turned bright, as if the day had arrived.
"HAAAHHHH!"
With a furious roar, the accumulated anger and frustration of his soldiers dying and of his Kingdom ruined, the King went beyond.@@novelbin@@
