Chapter 246 - Temptation of Aamon Qieke
Kant came back here was not to listen to this abyssal demon brag about its past glory.
It was to take its life!
The soldiers had already taken action.
The Ravenstern rangers and Rhodok crossbowmen were the first to move forward. They raised their heavy bows and siege crossbows at the same time, aiming their awl arrows and steel bolts directly at the enormous abyss demon at the relics of the city wall.
They had already taken aim and were waiting for orders.
“Arrogant humans!”
The abyssal demon Aamon Qieke was burning with rage.
The race that it had once looked down upon the most was dared to challenge it in such an arrogant manner after ten thousand years. It was like an ant challenging a giant. It was an absolute overestimation of oneself and a challenge to its dignity!
Moreover, the abyssal demon Aamon Qieke was in his weakest status.
Just like what the human mage had said.
This stirred up the matter in its heart that it was most furious about and was unwilling to bring up.
It was true that it did not have a good solution to these humans, or even a solution at all!
It was unable to break out of the seal that set up by the Sun God’s descendant. It was unable to personally deal with these humans. Even if it sent the inferior demons that it had accumulated and created, it was still unable to fight with these humans.
The inferior demons’ troops were almost completely annihilated, and only a few managed to escape.
Now, these humans still dared to point their bows and crossbows at it.
Aamon Qieke felt that its dignity had been seriously challenged!
However, there was nothing it could do. The fury in its eyes suddenly dissipated a little when it faced those Ravenstern rangers and Rhodok crossbowmen, only a certain kind of suppressed anger was gathering. Surprisingly, its big mouth gave a warning-like advice. “Human noble, I can give you gold that is as tall as a mountain, and I can also give you power that is comparable to the gods. Why did you choose to become my enemy at this time instead of cooperating with me? I, the Lord of Hell, swear to the abyss of hell in my name, Aamon Qieke. When you help me break the seal, you will get everything you want!”
“Everything?”
Kant smiled and lowered his head as if he was deep in thought.
However, the soldiers behind him did not put down the weapons in their hands. They continued to aim at the relics of the city wall 200 meters away, at the huge abyssal demon Aamon Qieke.
This was because they understood their lord.
Kant would not cooperate.
How could humans cooperate with the demons? This was tantamount to asking for the skin from a tiger!
“How is it, noble human? The era of the gods has passed. You were once the lowliest slaves of the gods. We can cooperate, we can overthrow the high and mighty gods together.”
Aamon Qieke whispered softly.
But his voice seemed to be imprinted in Kant’s ears, it aroused the desire in the bottom of his heart.
Strength, wealth, beautiful women.
Power and eternal life!
“Hmm, what a tempting suggestion. I think what you said makes sense.”
Kant raised his head and laughed lightly.
“That’s right. Whatever you want, I will bestow upon you the noble of mankind.”. Aamon Qieke’s eyes carried a hint of mischief. However, deep in its eyes, there was a brutality and madness.
“Your life.”, Kant said softly.
“This is very simple. I…”, Aamon Qieke laughed softly. The moment he opened his mouth, his expression instantly stiffened. A stunned expression appeared on his ferocious face. He subconsciously asked, “What?”
“Your life,”, Kant repeated.
He raised his head to look at the gigantic abyssal demon, Aamon Qieke, and slowly said, “To be more precise, I want you to die.”
“Human! How dare you tease me!”
The flames of hell in Aamon Qieke’s eyes instantly rose.
It crazily slashed inner wall of the city with its broken rune sword, causing large pieces of stone and bricks to shatter. The strong wind that was filled with anger and a strong smell of sulfur blast past Kant and the others.
“Release the arrows!”
However, Kant was unmoved. He let his hair flutter in the wind, but his voice was unusually calm. “Shoot freely!”
Kant said that he wanted his life.
He was really going for it!
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh –”
The Ravenstern rangers and Rhodok crossbowmen were already prepared.
As Kant’s voice fell, a rain of arrows instantly poured out. The awl arrow and the steel crossbow arrow flew side by side. However, the distance of 200 meters was within the range of these level 5 top-notch shooters!
“Roar –”
Aamon Qieke let out a wild and violent roar was emitted its mouth.
A faint dark red light appeared in the depths of his throat. The smell of sulfur was even denser, and the temperature in the air seemed to rise. A wave of hellfire surged out of his throat.
“Huff Huff Huff –”
The flames were rolling on the ground 30 meters in front of Aamon Qieke.
It was like an evil dragon spitting fire.
It was more like a fire-breathing tank that Kant had seen in his previous life.
It carried surging air currents and raging flames as it rolled in the air. The high temperature instantly burned the tail of the arrow. The arrow lost its ability to control its direction, causing the entire arrow to burn with flames. It lost the momentum and fell to the edge of the city wall, it was completely unable to cause any damage to Aamon Qieke in the relics!
However, in the the flames, 20 silver beams pierced through the wall of fire and shot directly at Aaron Qieke’s head. The sharp bolts were stained red as they pierced through its skin!
“Roar –”
The hellfire in its mouth stpped.
Aamon Qieke covered his face with his hand and pulled the steel bolts off his face.
For a head that was close to three meters long, a steel bolt that was only 30 centimeters long could not cause any fatal damage. It was like a human being pricked by a needle. Although it was painful, it could not cause any damage.
A huge body not only had terrifying strength, but it also had extremely strong defense!
One had to attack the weak points!
The archers obviously also noticed this.
As the captain of the crossbowmen, and also the current footmen general, Bunduk ordered in a deep voice, “Everyone, shoot the demon’s eyes, chest, arms, and legs!”
“Yes!”
The Ravenstern rangers and Rhodok crossbowmen responded to his order.
The rain of arrows continued.
They were not disheartened by the defeat just now.
They had the advantage. They could shoot at ease because the terrifying abyss demon Aamon Qieke could not leave the seal of the buried city at all. It could only passively defend.
To the archers.
Even their attacks were just like some scratches, but they could still scratch this abyssal demon to death!
The rain of arrows shot by the group of top-tier archers finally worked.
The abyssal demon Aamon Qieke howled in anger. The brutal and crazy aura followed the gusts of wind that filled with the power of the demons and almost covered the entire interior of the karst cave.
The echo shook their eardrums faintly.
The anxiety in the bottom of the soldiers’ hearts, however, began to stabilize as the battle continued.
The golden lion on the red bottom was fluttering in the wind.
Kant raised and blew his horn, and the steady and long horn sound suppressed the howl.
The archers’ morale was extremely high.
Occasionally, the mages would also cast magic balls and fireballs, but because the magic resistance of the superior demons was too high, such low-level spells could not pose an effective threat at all.
