Lord of the Sky City

Chapter 360: Chapter 334 Nightmare Descends!

A destroyer suddenly fell from the sky, leaving everyone on the battlefield stunned. No one had anticipated such an event. In the battle against demons, warships were always the safest; how could one possibly crash?

While everyone was confused and unsure of the situation, Dusa suddenly shouted!

“There’s something! Something is coming out of the flames!”

As a natural Sharpshooter, Dusa’s vision was far more sensitive than that of the average person. Thus, while the others were still dazed, she had already keenly spotted a dark figure bursting out of the pile of flames caused by the explosion!

Faced with this sudden shadow, Dusa reacted with extreme swiftness. She almost instinctively drew her bow and without thinking, released three arrows in rapid succession.

However, after she had fired those three arrows, Dusa was stunned because all three missed their target!

The dark figure that had charged out of the flames evaded with extraordinary speed, dodging all three of the arrows she had shot with ease!

Such a scene was a first for Dusa; she had always been unfailingly accurate, especially after donning the Void Magic Armor. Even Rocky might not have been able to evade her Magic Energy Arrows.

But this was the reality, the shadow that emerged from the flames really had avoided all the arrows she had fired. Not only that, but while dodging, it also advanced towards her at a speed unimaginable to most people!

In this situation, Dusa hurriedly continued to draw her bow, but she was a step too slow. Just as she was pulling the bowstring back, that shadow had already reached her…

Unimaginable speed!

Keep in mind the distance from where the warship had crashed to where Dusa was standing was no less than two hundred meters. Yet that vast distance had been crossed by the shadow in an instant.@@novelbin@@

It wasn’t until the shadow was up close that Dusa finally saw its true form. She saw a creature with shiny black fur, a pair of crescent-shaped eyes, and a head resembling that of a fox. Most importantly, as Dusa recognized the demon, she also saw the Scythe it was swinging down!

Facing the incoming Scythe, Dusa felt as if time had slowed down, slowed to the point where she could clearly see the cold light shimmering off the blade…

It is said that when a person is near death, they enter an indescribable state where everything seems to come to a standstill, everything appears to be frozen, including time. Dusa was now trapped in this state!

“Dodge!”

But at that moment, just as Dusa felt everything slowing down, a familiar voice suddenly reached her ears. And before she could even react, she felt herself being forcefully pushed aside!

Monte!

Just as Dusa was about to be horrifically slain by the high-level demon’s Scythe, Monte rammed his daughter with his shoulder, taking her place, and then faced the demon’s descending Scythe by raising his left hand in an attempt to block it.

A flash of cold light passed by, and Monte’s left arm, which he had used to block the demon’s Scythe, was sliced in half!

The Void Magic Armor stood before the high-level demon’s scythe, as if made of paper!

“Knife Fox… Damn!”

Even as the demon cut off his left hand, Monte did not shrink back; instead, he bit down hard on his teeth and raised the ax in his right hand, swinging it down with full force!

At this time, Monte’s previous profession saved his life. As a Demon Hunter, he was all too familiar with demons, and thus, he recognized at a glance what demon he was facing—this was the infamous high-level demon, Knife Fox Nightmare!

This type of demon, looking strikingly similar to a fox and named for the pair of scythes on its hands, was a high-level demon, a naturally dangerous being. Its defining characteristics were its incredible speed and the exceptionally sharp pair of scythes; typical armor stood no chance against it, providing virtually no protection.

It was precisely because he recognized the Knife Fox that Monte was able to save Dusa in the nick of time and smartly used his left hand to block, since it was already disabled; so what the Knife Fox Demon chopped off was not his arm, but the Magic Energy Cannon installed on it.

At the same time, after narrowly escaping death, Monte did not turn to run, for he knew turning his back to a high-level demon was akin to courting death—especially when facing the Knife Fox Demon, renowned for its speed. That’s why he counterattacked with his ax.

This move saved his own life!

Had Monte turned to flee, he would truly have been killed in the blink of an eye because the Knife Fox Demon was too fast. Instead, his desperate counterattack resulted in the demon cutting the ax in two with its scythes, but that also meant both its hands were swinging the scythes, leaving it with no choice but to kick Monte in the chest and send him flying!

He was saved…

In the instant he was kicked by the Knife Fox Demon, Monte had this thought, then fainted from the immense force.

Though the characteristics of the Knife Fox are its speed and the scythes on its hands, one must not forget that it’s still a high-level demon. So when Monte was kicked, he was sent flying like a cannonball shot from a barrel, nearly a hundred meters until he crashed hard against the wall of the city and came to a stop!

The mightiest warrior of Thunderhawk City stood powerless before a high-level demon, unable to withstand even a single blow!

And while all this seemed to take a long time to describe, in reality, from the moment Dusa shot her three arrows to Monte being kicked away, all of this happened in but a brief encounter—and while suspended in midair, meaning the Knife Fox Demon hadn’t even touched the ground when it completed everything and nearly killed two Void Magic Warriors…

It was only after this that the Knife Fox Demon finally landed on the ground.

With its firm landing, the entire battlefield fell silent. The black-eyed demons that were frenziedly pouncing toward the village halted, and the Guard Corps, who had been forcefully resisting the demons’ assault, also stopped. Every person, every demon, ceased their motion, uncontrollably turning their attention to the one presence on the battlefield.

And just as all eyes fell upon the Knife Fox Demon, it suddenly let out a piercing scream towards Backhill Village!

This scream instantly spread throughout Backhill Village, causing all within it—whether the villagers inside or the guards outside, even the surrounding demons—to fall to the ground in agony from the scream, utterly unable to resist…

Clearly, the Knife Fox Demon was using this supreme, dominating howl to announce its arrival!
