Chapter 509. Provisional Saint Knight Head (III)

At night, the whizzing north wind could occasionally be heard whimpering.

In the demon camps, aside from the area around the eight brightly lit demon god pillars, everything appeared calm and monotonous.

In such a cold weather, no matter how domineering the demon commanders were, the demon troops would still need to rest in their own camps. Their patrols were very few, since after all, so far they had always been the ones on the offensive. The Knight Temple was like a turtle withdrawn in its shell, never coming out of their forts, and letting out an impression of inertia.

The freezing cold area around the Dragon Resisting Mountain Pass reached -40C at nighttime.

This bitter cold greatly affected both demons and humans.

For the sake of taking care of this northern battlefield, the demons transferred almost all the thick tents they could here, so that as many of their troops could rest inside as possible.

At first, it was really quite hard. Over a million elite troops having gathered here, having all of them sleep in good conditions was not easy given their level of culture. But as the Holy War went on, the casualties also increased continuously, and the demons also had to replace their troops. And now, their army could finally just barely be accommodated in their camps.

In each twenty-square-meters tent resided at least ten demons. That is, with the exception of the Demonic Bear who were grouped by four or five. This way they were stuck in physical contact distance with each other, but at least the benefit was that this enabled them to warm up each other.

These unsophisticated camps extended over the length of five kilometers, with each tent inseparably close to each other, attempting to resist the terrible cold.

The Demon God of Death Saminaga was worthy of being called one of the demons’ five pillars. He didn’t have the advanced demons reside in the camps, but outside, letting only the rather low-leveled demons inside.

Among them were the three Demon Emperor Legions, stationed in three different directions from the camps. This was obviously not only because of the advanced-level demons’ higher resistance to cold, but more importantly, if humans really launched an attack on the demon camps, the stronger ones guarding outside would have an easier time to resist. These arrangements planned by Saminaga received an unanimous support.

The Demonic Bear Sahaba had recently returned to the camps with three comrades. The movements of the four Demonic Bears were identical, and all four felt incredibly crowded in the narrow tents, and had their hands covering their stomachs, feeling extremely hungry.

According to their massive builds and astonishing defensive power, the imposing Demonic Bears’ need for food was also frightening. But they haven’t eaten to their fill for a few days already.

The stored corpses were already nearly all used up as food, and today, they had to share a Berserk Demon’s leg as their only food. To them, this was far from enough! But because food was really insufficient, they had no other way. With eight great demon gods standing on guard, who would dare make a fuss? Wouldn’t that be close to suicide?

So at sunset, they hurried back to the camps to rest.

Sahaba’s group was still well off. They belonged to the fourth Demon Emperor legion, and had an extremely privileged treatment within the demon army. The lower ranked demons had mostly not eaten for one or two days.

Before the last battle, the demon army should have had sufficient food, but who expected Saminaga to have been left with no choice but to retreat? Very few corpses could be brought back, which was totally insufficient to replenish their food supply. And who knew when food supplies would arrive from the rear?

The demon high-ranking officer all knew that at this rate, their army would die of hunger, but what could they do about an order personally issued by the Demon God Emperor?

From the beginning of the War, a year and a half had passed. The demon armies lost at least a third of their troops since then, several million demons having already died.

Although the damage inflicted to the humans’ Six Great Temple was also considerable, the demons’ deceased were at least five times higher than the humans. And this difference only kept increasing.

The fact that the Demon God Emperor’s Devil Dragon Clan, the Moon Clan, and the Star Clan still had yet to appear in the battlefield became the greatest issue. Many demons, including even demon gods, didn’t understand the reason for this. In their point of view, the mere appearance of the Demon God Emperor in the battlefield was sufficient to guarantee the destruction of any human fort! How could they know that the Demon God Emperor never had the intention to wipe out humanity, and only wanted to greatly reduce the forces they had accumulated for several thousand years.

The four Demonic Bears were whispering together, full of hunger and devoid of energy. Moreover, given the total cold outside, even if they were able to bear the temperature, the cold would exhaust all their remaining energy, only causing them to be more hungry.

Sahaba let out a low cry, “So hungry! If this keeps up, I will have to kill some of them to fill my stomach.” This didn’t refer to the forces of the Dragon Resisting Mountain, as he had no intention to commit such a suicidal act, but their own side’s forces.

Another Demonic Bear’s eyes lit up from hearing Sahaba’s words, “How about Berserk Demons? Their meat is juicy. Bring two of them here, it should be enough to fill us. At this rate, if we don’t die from freezing, it will be from hunger. I don’t want to become food for the other demons!”

Although demons would use corpses as food, they were very careful in one aspect. That was, a demon would avoid eating corpses of his own kin, which was only a last resort.

A few Demonic Bears gained an interest. The strength of the Berserk Demons was naturally far below theirs, and their two races were incomparable. The Demonic Bear Demon God Valefor was present, but the Berserk Demons didn’t even have a demon god. Even if they were found out, these Demonic Bears from the Demon Emperor Legion wouldn’t suffer any losses. This has always been a world where the strong prey upon the weak.

Outside the tents, the bitingly cold wind could be heard whimpering. The tents were quite sturdy, although in practice they could at most resist the wind. To really withstand the cold, one could only rely on his own body’s temperature and the thickness of his own skin.

Sahaba’s eyes glinted with a flash of evil intent, “Let’s go. We cannot let ourselves starve to death like that. We are noble Demonic Bears, there’s nothing for us to worry about eating two Berserk Demons. Being able to use their worthless lives to help our noble lives go on is nothing but a honor for them.”

Hearing his last words, the other three, mad with hunger, couldn’t show any more restraint, and noiselessly came out from their tent.

As soon as they came out, they couldn’t help but shake from the cold. The cold wind cut through their fur, and although this was not enough to directly inflict them wounds, this was sufficient to almost freeze below the surface of their hair, and suffuse their skin with great cold.

“Go.” Sahaba ordered, leading the other three in the direction of the Berserk Demons’ camps.

Because they belonged to a Demon Emperor Legion, their tents were among the outermost. Demonic Bears were originally the toughest and most resistant to cold, so to go trouble some Berserk Demons, they had to head deeper inside the camp.

Right at this time, Sahaba suddenly seemed to have sensed something.

“Do you smelling something as well? This smell seems unusual.” Sahaba halted his footsteps, looking suspiciously all around him.

Under the biting cold wind, outside of the camp was pitch-black, and nothing of the surroundings was visible. One could only vaguely see some light at the distant Dragon Resisting Mountain. But because of the excessive distance, the light from the Dragon

Resisting Mountain Pass seemed to be out of range from here.

Another Demonic Bear replied, “Sahaba, you must be really hungry. Could you be sensing the smell of barbecue? Uh, I am so hungry for barbecue!”

Hearing this, the whole bunch of Demonic Bears, including Sahaba, couldn’t help but take a gulp of saliva. Right! What could beat a delicious barbecue?

Just when Sahaba believed he had made a mistake due to his excessive hunger, a figure touched his back without a sound.

This figure was completely wrapped in a large cloak, as if melting into the darkness. And around his body appeared some clear twisting light, causing his body’s aura to vanish inside.

A golden light flashed and was sensed by Sahaba’s group of four at the same time as an ice-cold heat attacked them. The next instant, the four of them turned into corpses without any knowledge, as they simply fell to the ground.

On each of their four skulls appeared a little bloodied hole, piercing through their brain without leaving the slightest opportunity to even make a sound or launch an attack. But the toughest part of a Demonic Bear is his skull! What monstrous strength would be needed to accomplish this?

There was no need at all to worry about the reeking smell of blood being diffused. In such a freezing cold, the four corpses didn’t even have blood spread out, and directly turned into ice.

That black figure lightly waved his hand, and another cloaked figure silently came into view, preparing to act under the lead of the former black-clad man.

The black figure slowly removed its cloak, revealing an aged face. This was the Auxiliary Temple Head He Jun. Currently, that black cloak concealed an armor glinting with an orange color, without a helmet on his face.

A total of fifty people had come along with him. All had fluctuations around them. These fluctuations were similar to Long Haochen’s barrier of mental energy, enabling them to conceal their presence, and were given off by a special piece of equipment.

In the whole Six Great Temples, the Knight Temple was second only to the Mage Temple in their possessions of spiritual tools, having quite a few of them. These powerhouses from the Knight Temple all had a necklace of spiritual protection.
