Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

It’s done.

Bai Jin beneath the ice let out a silent breath of relief. Despite the difficulty, she successfully completed the magic.

Next, it’s about nailing the magic to the Magic Array in the sky.

The collision between Aslit and Kula Doreen continues.

Black currents cluster, bat wings continuously expanding, Aslit’s strength becomes increasingly powerful.

At the moment of the ambush, the ice beneath Aslit’s feet shattered instantly, splashing water everywhere.

The ice underfoot already shattered beyond recognition, Kula Doreen ran across the lake using energy, ready to meet Aslit’s attack.

Black flames scorched Kula Doreen’s hands into charred black, burning off half his clothes and searing up to his face.

However, he did not retreat at all, gripping the long sword in his hand, he took Aslit’s incoming strike.

In an instant, black overflowed, slapping against the lake surface.

Black currents swept across Kula Doreen’s body, leaving wounds that spilled crimson.

Using technique, Kula Doreen dispersed the force he endured across his body, letting it scatter through the water.

However, Aslit’s strength was too great.

Through the shattered ice, two tracks were carved, and Kula Doreen was forced back several meters.

A whirlwind kicked up beneath his feet, Kula Doreen unleashed an astonishing speed, the sharp blade again slashing towards Aslit.

Even if the difference in strength gradually became vast, Kula Doreen must not let Aslit free his hands.

The twin blades clashed again, Aslit initially thought Kula Doreen’s attack would become soft and weak, but unexpectedly, the force Kula Doreen used was no different from before.

Staring at Aslit in front of him, Kula Doreen called out Aslit’s name,

”Aslit.”

When Aslit was young, Kula Doreen had called this name countless times, and back then, Aslit would always respond with a smile.

But now...

”Damn old man, even in this state, how can you still muster such strength!

Do you want to risk your old life to stop me?

I’m telling you, it’s impossible! Don’t get in my way anymore!”

Increasing the force in his hand, Aslit bounced Kula Doreen away, flapping his wings ready to soar into the sky.

As soon as Kula Doreen stopped, he stepped on the lake surface again, pressing close to Aslit.

Countless sparks flew as blades clashed, the shockwave blowing ice blocks across the lake surface, their battle seemingly leaving no room for anyone else to intervene.

The ice surface Bai Jin wove out of magic was nearly breaking apart.

Although the process was different from expected, it still achieved Aslit’s goal of destroying the ice surface.

Every second of delay increased the possibility for Bai Jin to complete the magic, and Aslit didn’t want to drag it out any longer.

However, Kula Doreen constantly exerted unimaginable pressure on her, making it hard for her to move. It was as if to stop Bai Jin, one must take down Kula Doreen first.

Several enchanting demons in the sky wanted to go help Aslit, but light arrows suddenly flew swiftly from the forest, mercilessly piercing through them.

The enchanting demons hidden in the forest were hard to locate, but those on the lake surface became Iyas’ best targets.

Continuing to endure the enchanting demon’s attacks, Iyas showcased the talent of a great elf warrior, leaping continuously through the forest by the lake, harassing the enchanting demons.

The Holy Light on Iyas was a formidable weapon against the enchanting demons, forcing them to take her seriously.

The enchanting demons sought instructions from Aslit, whether to help restrain Kula Doreen or eliminate the elusive Iyas in the forest.

”Are you all dimwitted? Can’t you feel it! The magic that girl is using is the thing capable of turning the tide of the battle! Find her, find her for me!”

Hearing Aslit’s irritated roar, the enchanting demons instantly sprang into action, soaring skyward, avoiding Iyas’ attack range, and through magic detection from the air, they surveyed the situation beneath the lake, searching for Bai Jin’s figure.

Examining small fragments, Bai Jin was impossible to exist within; the enchanting demons targeted their sight on larger unbroken floating ice blocks.

They quickly noticed a large square ice block rising rapidly from the bottom of the lake, speculating that Bai Jin was most likely inside.

Conveying the information to Aslit, the enchanting demons flew towards the rapidly surfacing ice block, summoning a large amount of Black Magic in their hands.

Just as the ice block surfaced, countless black beams tore through the sky in an instant, blasting the ice block to pieces.

A probe using the Magic Array showed no trace of magic fluctuation in the shattered ice block!

Bai Jin isn’t in the ice block, it was a hollow ice block!

Where could she have gone?

Just as the enchanting demons prepared to search for Bai Jin anew, an ice block in the opposite direction of their attack exploded in the water, with Bai Jin shielded, rapidly bursting out of the water, a splash of water rising in her wake, heading straight for the Magic Array shining in the sky.

Upon hearing the noise, tracking Bai Jin’s trail, the enchanting demons immediately set off in pursuit.

Seeing the glowing Magic Array in the sky drawing nearer, Bai Jin lifted her Magic Wand, the complex magic at the tip unfolding swiftly, greedily absorbing the surrounding magic power.

Once sufficient magic power was absorbed, various intricate magic techniques converged at the center of the Array, forming a spur.

One after another, the enchanting demons shot Black Magic at Bai Jin, who twisted and turned mid-air, effortlessly evading these dark spells.

To hit Bai Jin, one must launch an attack from a closer distance for control, supported by this consensus, the enchanting demons flapped their wings vigorously, closing in on Bai Jin in the blink of an eye.

He Meng wriggled out of the hood onto Bai Jin’s shoulder and leaped down.

He Meng’s attack capability wasn’t strong, nor was it as fast as Bai Jin and the others, so He Meng remained by Bai Jin’s side, ensuring her safety.

Bai Jin had already informed He Meng of what she wanted to accomplish in advance.

Bai Jin knew that once she emerged from the water, she would become the target of all. To execute her plan, she needed to be closer to the Magic Array in the sky.

Bai Jin required someone to protect her to have enough time to change the tide of battle.

For this task now, it had to be He Meng.

He Meng fell downwards from mid-air, flapping the small jelly-like wings growing on both sides with all her might, but the lift generated by these wings wasn’t enough to allow He Meng to fly; she dropped vertically.

There was no need for concern.

He Meng was merely warming up, capturing the flow of air.

After obtaining those books from Yang Yu some time ago, under Yang Yu’s urging to ”hurry up and turn into a plane so I can chart the map,” He Meng had thoroughly studied combining theory and practice.

Though carrying people was still slightly difficult, He Meng had managed to create quite a few things capable of flying.

In the midst of flapping, He Meng’s wings grew larger, and her round body suddenly transformed. As she neared the enchanting demons, He Meng abruptly turned into a massive eagle with a wingspan over five meters, her enormous body coated with a layer of silver light, her sharp talons clutching two enchanting demons at once.

The other enchanting demons trailing behind these two, either using Acceleration Magic or maneuvering to evade, aimed to escape the giant eagle’s gaze and charged towards Bai Jin.

Unexpectedly, countless light blue Water Balls swirled around He Meng, spraying outwards to form a large blue net.
