Chapter 215 The Tragedy of the Sealing 19
Leon rushed towards Adrian, using his shield to block the dark orb of light spewed out by the demonic remains. A deafening explosion erupted, making everyone's ears ring. The powerful impact of the dark orb jolted Leon's body violently, his feet carving two deep furrows in the ground.
The "Judgment" unleashed tremendous power, its dazzling light like a blazing sun, slamming into the Shadow Abyss Demon Corpse. Each burst of energy released from the "Judgment" was like a sharp blade, mercilessly tearing through the demon's dark body, leaving deep wounds. Black smoke continuously billowed from these wounds, a sign that the dark power was being purified.
Seeing this, the crowd's morale soared. Adrian's swordsmanship became even more ferocious, each strike aimed at the demon's wounds, as if to completely dispel the darkness. Leon wielded his weapon, coordinating seamlessly with his teammates, clearing away the surrounding dark monsters and concentrating the power attacking the demon more effectively. Elena seized the opportunity, chanting ancient and powerful incantations, unleashing dazzling beams of magic from her wand, striking the demon's vital points with pinpoint accuracy, each beam causing a violent tremor.
Under Eric's command, the Royal Guard held a firm defensive line at the rear, while the members operating the "Judgment" continued their relentless attacks. Under this combined offensive, the Shadow Abyss Demon gradually showed signs of defeat. Its roars began to be tinged with pain, the frequency and intensity of its attacks slowly decreased, its massive body swayed more violently, and the dark aura was no longer as intense as before. The dawn of victory seemed to be beginning to glimmer in the darkness.
Holding a longbow, Shen Ying moved nimbly along the edge of the battlefield, deftly drawing her bow and releasing her arrows time and again. Her arrows, imbued with magical light, shot towards the Shadow Abyss Demon Corpse like meteors, striking its various parts with pinpoint accuracy.
However, just as she was fully focused on the battle, a strange unease suddenly welled up in her heart. Before she could think about it, a cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang in her mind: "Unknown program intrusion detected. Annihilate! Annihilate!" The voice was devoid of any emotion, as cold as if it came from an endless abyss, and it kept echoing in her mind, making her face turn pale instantly, and her hands involuntarily froze.
Just then, the Shadow Abyss Demon, which had been showing signs of weakness under the combined attack of the group, suddenly experienced a surge of surging dark energy, enveloping it like a black tide. Its wounds healed rapidly at a visible speed, as if injected with some extremely powerful energy, instantly restoring it to its original state.
Its terrifying blood-red eyes, like two burning hellfires in the darkness, suddenly and precisely located Shen Ying. That gaze was filled with intense malice and a bloodthirsty desire, as if it wanted to devour Shen Ying instantly, making her feel as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and every hair on her body stood on end.
Shen Ying was locked onto by the terrifying gaze of the Shadow Abyss Demon Remains, like prey being stalked by a giant python, unable to move. The surrounding air seemed to freeze, and she could clearly hear her own heart pounding violently, like thunder in the tense atmosphere.
The Shadow Abyss Demon Corpse let out a deafening roar, the sound like a heavy hammer blow, making everyone dizzy. Then it suddenly opened its blood-red maw, and a huge dark sphere of light condensed within it. The destructive power contained within the sphere distorted the surrounding space. It forcefully spat it towards Shen Ying, and the dark sphere of light shot towards her like a falling black meteor with a whistling sound.
Upon seeing this, Adrian's expression changed drastically. He disregarded everything else and desperately ran towards Shen Ying. "Run!" he shouted, his voice hoarse. Leon also reacted, raising his shield and attempting to rush towards Shen Ying to protect her, but the dark orb was too fast and too powerful.
Elena quickly cast a shield spell, but under the full force of the Shadow Abyss Demon's attack, the magic shield proved so fragile that it developed numerous cracks upon contact.
Just as the dark orb was about to strike Shen Ying, a mysterious power suddenly surged from within her, carrying an eerie light, and collided with the dark orb. In an instant, light and darkness intertwined and collided, emitting a blinding flash of light and a deafening roar, causing everyone on the battlefield to stagger and fall.
When Adrian saw that Shen Ying was alright, his expression relaxed, but his body immediately stiffened, and his face turned deathly pale. His eyes widened, filled with terror and disbelief, and his lips trembled slightly, but he couldn't utter a sound.
Just as Shen Ying thought she had been saved by the protective talisman and felt relieved, she felt a chill in her chest. The chill quickly spread throughout her body, as if freezing her soul. Looking down, she saw a blood-stained sword. The blood on the sword was so glaring, like blooming spider lilies in the darkness. She had been pierced through the heart by a sword. Intense pain surged through her like a tide, and her consciousness began to blur.
As she thought this, Shen Ying subconsciously turned around and saw a familiar face: it was Wu Yiliu. So she had come into the game after all? Shen Ying opened her mouth, wanting to ask why, but only a broken sob escaped her throat. Wu Yiliu's face was expressionless, her eyes as cold as a winter lake, and she still gripped her sword tightly, seemingly waiting for Shen Ying's life to end.
At this moment, the others on the battlefield also noticed the change. For a moment, time seemed to freeze. Everyone was shocked and at a loss by this sudden scene. Only the triumphant roar of the Shadow Abyss Demon echoed on the battlefield, as if mocking this dramatic scene.
After killing Shen Ying, Wu Yiliu immediately used a prop to escape the scene. She proudly boasted to the system in her mind, "Hmph, in the end, wasn't it me who helped you eliminate that intruder Shen Ying? Tell me, what kind of reward should I get?"
A smug smile played on her lips, her eyes gleaming with anticipation for the reward that was about to be hers. At that moment, she was completely oblivious to the horrific scene she had just witnessed on the battlefield, and to Shen Ying's desperate and bewildered gaze before her death.
The system's cold, electronic voice echoed in her mind: "The reward will be issued as agreed. However, the mission is not over yet, host..."
However, before she could finish speaking, the system's voice was abruptly interrupted. At the same time, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded in Wu Yiliu's mind: "Attention! Attention! This world is about to collapse, please immediately..." The alarm was sharp and urgent, like the urging of death, which made Wu Yiliu's face turn deathly pale instantly.
But the alarm didn't last long before it was abruptly cut off, as if a signal had suddenly disappeared. A deathly silence fell over the surroundings. Wu Yiliu's eyes widened, her face filled with terror. She frantically looked around; the once bustling game world had become eerie and sinister. The scenery began to distort and warp, and huge cracks appeared in the ground, as if the entire world was crumbling apart.
She tried to contact the system again, but her mind went blank and there was no response. She then realized that she seemed to be trapped in an extremely terrible predicament.
