Chapter 1090: Break a Siege

Chapter 1090: Break a Siege

As the massive ship emerged from the water, the other participants of the bloodbath finally took the stage.

“Slaughter those damn devils!”

The abyssal demons snarled and flourished their weapons. As the dazzling brilliance shone, hundreds of thousands of warships showed up in midair. The rushing river tumbled forward as the warships picked up speed and launched their attacks on the devils. A string of fireballs streaked across the air, blasting at the devil fleet in the distance. Shortly after, the flames blazed in the explosions, scattering scorching heat to the surroundings. The blinding flashes and deep explosions signified the start of a war and a whole new phase.

Rhode’s ferry was caught among the demon fleet. The ferry was so tiny in comparison that it had no advantage over the tall and mighty ships. But despite that, almost all the demon ships kept a safe distance from the ferry as no demons were foolish enough to stay in the way of the people who could effortlessly eradicate so many devils at once because that would be no different from seeking death. With the arrival of the demons, the firepower assumed by Rhode’s group was dispersed quickly. Shortly after, the ferryman rowed the tiny ferry in the flow of the river.

“This is only the start! Start your engines and fire your cannons! Music on! Go all out! Kill anyone who stops me!”

Mini Bubble Gum raised her fist and along with her movement, a massive, circular magical ritual appeared with her in the middle. At the next moment, countless, white, glaring rays of light shone forward like a string of cannon shots blasting at the devils’ messy formation. But that wasn’t the end because at the same time, the rest also got into action.

Lesa raised the staff high up in midair. This young lady donned a white gown and triangular hat and waved her staff casually. Along with her movement, a dazzling, blue light in the air turned into a circle that expanded abruptly, slashing through the devils’ solid shell like a razor-sharp blade. In the blink of an eye, everything in the path of the light circle was sliced in half. It didn’t matter if the devils used weapons or spells to strengthen their defense or how indestructible their shell was as they were split entirely in the illusory circle. It was no exception for the steel ships that the devils built. At a glance, wreckages of sliced-up ships could be seen sinking into the river. The devils who were just summoned and hadn’t even figured out the bearing of the enemies were flustered after being struck by another wave of attacks. Meanwhile, the ferry continued to advance forward.

Celestina and Celia didn’t attack. They quietly stood on both sides of the ferry to stop any ambushes. Cheryl and Stefania remain seated. The former’s eyes were healed by Mini Bubble Gum earlier on and now, Cheryl was widening her eyes and witnessing this unimaginable scene.

Cheryl had been involved in a bloodbath and due to this reason, she knew how difficult it was to deal with devils. There were a few times she thought she wouldn’t make it back alive. If it weren’t for the ridiculous and disorderly nature of the devils that gave her a certain chance, perhaps she wouldn’t have escaped and be here now. In a bloodbath, deserter and dead often had the same meaning. Before receiving an order to retreat, one who fell back would most likely be pounced on by the devils. One would then use one’s life to experience the punishment for going against the rules.

That was like a nightmare to Cheryl to be surrounded by demons, launching attacks involuntarily, and even chanting spells became oddly tough. Besides, devils were immune to flames and this led to the ineffectiveness of a mage’s most powerful spell. Moreover, she had to always be on the lookout and not sink into the ‘human’ wave attack. After all, in a bloodbath, there was no lack of enemies.

In fact, Cheryl turned ashen as soon as she witnessed the devils. She couldn’t imagine how she actually survived the encirclement of these devils before. But she didn’t expect these terrifying devils to be as weak as fragile goblins who scourged villages in these people’s eyes! In only a few moments, the devils were completely eliminated without having a chance to retaliate. In fact, up until this point, none of the devils had even managed to hurt them. Even though the scarlet barrier cast by Canary wasn’t as perfect as the defensive shield mastered by a cleric like Mini Bubble Gum, the devils’ attacks completely failed to shatter this plastic film-like barrier. Judging from this point, it could be seen just how powerful Canary was as a young mage.

Andre was thinking of becoming enemies with these people?

Cheryl lowered her head and gazed in uncertainty at the deck. She bit her lip as her heart pounded constantly. Previously, she thought that this wasn’t a good idea and now, she was certain of it. They weren’t capable of going against these people who had effortlessly destroyed and thrashed the devils’ front line. If Andre were here to witness this scene, perhaps he would give up his thought…

“What’s going through your mind, adorable little elf lady?”

At this moment, a crisp, playful voice sounded in Cheryl’s ears. She looked up and saw Stefania’s beautiful, smiley face. Cheryl didn’t know who she was and only vaguely knew that she was a merchant who helped Rhode out. But Cheryl also wasn’t sure why this merchant was willing to head into the Rift Plain with them. And now, her relaxed expression was as though she neglected the fact that they were surrounded by hundreds of thousands of devils. It was also as though they weren’t facing terrifying enemies, but were simply chilling in the wild. But for some unknown reason, as soon as Cheryl looked into Stefania’s eyes, she curled up instinctively as though a scorching flame was burning her body.

Upon seeing her reaction, Stefania smiled, extending a finger and shaking it.

“Don’t worry, His Majesty Rhode is really powerful. In his eyes, those devils are no threat at all. We can just enjoy the show from here. Sigh, these devils are so lucky to have His Majesty Rhode attacking them himself.”

Stefania said, lifting her head.

Under the ferryman’s control, the ferry arrived before the devils’ front. At a glance, the shipwrecks were sinking gradually and devil corpses filled the water surface. Almost at the same time, the demons following closely behind Rhode collided heavily into the sluice-like wreckages in the River Styx.

Boom!

In the powerful clash, both sides started a new battle. Demons and devils fought at close quarters, ripping and tearing through one another fanatically. Billows of dark green smoke with a deadly stench dispersed, enfolding everything within them. Dazzling flares erupted constantly, engulfing everything along with strong gales. In an instant, the River Styx turned into a bloody battlefield.

Blade rays flashed.

Rhode streaked across the air with his twin daggers. The ground trembled and the middle of the River Styx started cracking in with his movements. Like in myths and legends where one led one’s family and divided the ocean to escape capture from the king, a deep, long separation was formed in the River Styx from the middle. The roaring river water pushed away the shipwrecks that were blocking their path. Blade rays whizzed and shone, turning into strong gales that shredded everything in their path into powder. Before the devils that pounced forward were able to show their strength, they were instantly shattered into bits as though they were simply made of clay and didn’t have bodies of flesh. As Rhode’s blade rays ran across them, they turned into powder and were devoured entirely by the white, shimmering blade lights. None of their remains were left behind.

This instantaneous and powerful force left the River Styx trembling constantly as though it were trying to avoid the massive strength. Using this chance, the ferryman rowed the ferry ahead and overcame the sinking wreckage easily like a feather drifting on the water.

“I’m trying my best!”

The startled ferryman turned to Rhode quickly. The latter stood quietly at the side of the ferry, pointing down the twin daggers leisurely as though nothing were happening. However, the ferryman knew that the radiance emanating from the daggers had eliminated beings equivalent to three Flame Monarchs! Yes, Flame Monarchs, who were no pushovers in the abyss! And yet, they were defeated so quickly!

Maybe I have really gotten myself some bothersome customers.

At this thought, the ferryman felt a shiver down his spine. He clutched the long pole and rowed forward with force.

The ferry passed through the front line and a huge amount of devils appeared before them once again.

“Everyone, there is only one chance. We have wasted too much time! If we can’t arrive at the next teleportation point within five minutes, we will have no choice but to go the long way!”

The ferryman took a breath of cold air and yelled. After witnessing the powerful and ridiculous strength of these people, he no longer dared to retaliate against them. Instead, he had no choice but to prepare himself, so as to avoid being killed by these temperamental people. A ferryman who was killed by his own customers would surely be the funniest joke in his trade.

Upon hearing his words, Rhode didn’t have any reaction. He lifted his head and gazed ahead. Right there, the densely packed devils had completely blotted out the sky.

“In that case, what are we waiting for?” he said. “Attack!”
