"It's okay. Everything will be fine when daybreak."
Christina knelt down and hugged them, comforting them and asking them not to disturb her father and brother who were trying to communicate with the outside world.
Everyone in the Earl's family had gathered in the living room, but they still looked a little frightened at this moment.
They didn't know why, but suddenly a catastrophe occurred in Huadu, and all the contracted demons began to go crazy.
Now outside, the bad news spread that the crazy and cursed demons were ravaging the north and south banks of the flower capital Parrieu. The church bells rang in the sky above Parrieux, announcing the arrival of the emergency city defense state.
Reception hall.
"Where's Rocky?"
Count Baptiste sat on the sofa and looked at Kyle anxiously.
"Can't get in touch either."
Kyle held the communication magic device and shook his head solemnly.
At this time, the person who makes them think of the most secure person is their housekeeper.
It's not that he's powerful, but that he's very reassuring to be around.
Fortunately, even if the housekeeper is away, there is still Enochian.
The maid who was suddenly brought back by Butler Rocky and Christina that day, at first no one in their family realized how strong she was.
It wasn't until today that they discovered that this maid seemed to really have a seventh level.
She had no fighting skills, and she completely subdued several mad maids, including even a sixth-level mad maid, purely by relying on her physical fitness and unfamiliar spiritual magic.
Ordinary sixth-level people are unable to fight against this kind of crazy demons of the same level.
"No matter what, I hope Rocky can stay safe wherever he is."
Count Baptiste looked out the window and prayed.
At this moment, the situation outside Earl Baptiste's mansion was even worse.
The north coast was only swept by disaster, while the south coast was almost destroyed.
The wave of darkness is still raging, the deformed demons are coming like a tide, the heavy rain washes away the blood on the ground, and the thunder and lightning illuminates the twisted and ferocious faces.
Members of the Knights Templar wearing silver armor were dispatched one after another, holding silver swords and cross shields, and rushed through the heavy rain to escort the wounded.
Priests in white robes gathered in front of the church, singing carols loudly, using magic to dispel the rotten miasma, and tried their best to build a barrier to resist the intruding maddened demons and treat injured citizens.
Troops of executioners in black military uniforms emerged from dark alleys all over the city. Their sharp swords shone coldly in the rain and shuttled like ghosts. They used superb skills to kill the crazy demons. The Parrieux Police Headquarters has also been dispatched. Emergency checkpoints were set up in various districts and efforts were made to evacuate innocent citizens. Uniformed policemen, armed with riot shields and long batons, were on the front lines trying their best to stop the insane and aberrant people who escaped from the executioners' hands.
Under their guidance, the panicked crowds flocked to relatively safe shelters such as churches and police stations.
Cries, calls for help, and prayers merged into one and surged into the night sky.
On heavy rain days, the sound propagation is particularly clear.
Even sounds from several kilometers away can echo in your ears.
At this moment, the citizens of South Bank did not receive many official intelligence notifications, and it seemed that most news channels were almost paralyzed.
Only the channels in zones 7 to 10 on the North Shore are still operating normally.
In the picture they could see through the magic projection, an eighth-level decisive battle seemed to be taking place in Area 10 of the Posen Demon Realm on the North Shore.
In the Posen Demon World, even though the ground is constantly shaking, there are still some desperate demon reporters who insist on filming on the front lines.
They used the latest equipment to capture this unprecedented battle in a blurry manner through layers of obstacles.
The camera is constantly shaking, buzzing from time to time, accompanied by blurry glitches and lags, and may even turn into darkness and roll around a few times.
If you are too close to the center of the battlefield, you may be dragged in by two humanoid natural disasters at any time.
At the extreme distance, only some blurry images can occasionally be captured.
"The war situation in the Demon World on the North Shore is constantly escalating!"
The voice of a disgraced demon reporter trembled slightly, and he read faster and faster.
"Parieux Broadcasting Company will bring you the latest reports until the last moment of its life..."
Before the female reporter finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from behind her.
Immediately afterwards, the camera equipment shook violently, the entire picture was interrupted, and the faint sound of glass breaking could be heard.
After a few seconds, the picture stabilized again.
But surprisingly, the demon reporter is still alive.
"I'm sorry for the interruption. It seems that the scope of the battle has affected my location. I need to continue to distance myself!"
She started running in the screen,
"But no matter what happens, we will persist until the last minute to bring you the most timely and authentic reports..."
In this way, in the thin line between life and death, there are fewer and fewer channels that are still broadcasting live battlefields.
There is always a recording perspective that can see the battle on the north shore, and there are also rear channels that are constantly broadcasting fragmented footage.
On the far south bank, countless pairs of eyes are witnessing all this through projection equipment.
People stared with bated breath, moved by the bravery of District 9 Demon Lord Etio and Executioner Nigel, and also indignant at the turmoil caused by District 10 Lord Perlman. In addition, they were more afraid.
Because it is probably too late to wait until the assassin general from Kuidan Territory in South Asia comes back.
Now we can only hope that they can create a miracle and defeat Pearlman.
South of Parrieux.
In the heavy rain washing the south coast.
A gray cloaked figure stepped on the blood-stained ground and disappeared.
He first went to the Tiffany mansion where the executioner was not present.
However, after breaking through the barrier that blocked detection, he didn't waste a second on breaking through the eighth-level protective barrier in the deep layers before heading to the next Duke's location.
"Perlman, Duke Tiffany's crystal key is not within the boundaries of the mansion. This woman looks like she is dead. My search magic can't find the crystal key."
He used encrypted communication magic to contact Perlman, who was currently in the 10th District of the Demon Realm in the northernmost part of Huadu Parrieu, and said.
Beelzebub ended the communication after saying this.
He believed that Pearlman would understand what he meant without him having to explain much.
If Mr. Tiffany had not placed this kind of key in the eighth-level barrier, he would have entrusted it to a strong person he trusted.
And the only person she could trust unconditionally was the executioner she entrusted her life to.
……
Meanwhile on the other side.
District 10 of Posen Demon Realm.
The night sky was gloomy, with rolling dark clouds that were torn apart by dazzling ice-blue lightning in the sky from time to time.
Perlman touched his ear lightly and seemed to receive some communication.
Etiou's unique magic power, it is no longer clear whether it is the natural thunder on this rainy night or her magic. When it hits the target, it will instantly freeze everything around it, spread a layer of electric cocoon, and then explode into millions of ice fragments.
What is fighting against it is Pearlman's invisible telepathy.
From time to time, it forms fist-sized vacuum zones in the heavy rain, roaring out at a speed faster than the eye can see. Wherever it goes, steel bars melt, rocks evaporate, and are twisted into vortices.
"Boom!"
Another wave of telekinesis hit the Posen Demon Realm Memorial Building. In an instant, this landmark building in Huadu melted and deformed like a candle, and finally collapsed.
The deafening roar resounded over the entire Posen Demon Realm, and the earth shook.
Etiou figured it out, and if she didn't try her best to use her strongest spell, she might not even be able to make Perlman take it seriously.
Having made up his mind, Atio took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
In an instant, the temperature of Posen Demon Realm dropped suddenly.
First the wind howled, mixed with hail, and then the heavy rain began to turn into falling snowflakes in the dark night sky.
Soon, large swaths of snowflakes gathered into a blizzard, and the entire Posen Demon Realm District 10 was caught in this unprecedented cold wave.
Atio's own main thunder and secondary ice. Since it is dual-element, it is easy to be restrained when fighting elemental enemies, but it is not easy to fight pure control types like Pearlman.
At this point, we can only inject damage, which consumes mana.
Atio opened his eyes suddenly.
Her pupils had completely turned ice blue, like two cold stars.
Thousands of ice crystals condensed and formed behind Atio, and then shot towards Perlman like a rainstorm of steel needles.
Each of these ice crystals is like an explosive bomb.
However, in the face of this terrifying icy rain, Perlman did not panic at all.
Etiou slowly raised his hands, and the next moment, all the raindrops and snowflakes stopped moving in mid-air.
As if a freeze-frame spell had been cast, the howling wind suddenly stopped, and countless icy blue beams of light pierced the sky and penetrated Pearlman's body accurately.
Perlman smiled easily, and the telepathy around him instantly expanded, turning into an invisible energy ball that enveloped him.
The moment the ice crystal rain hit the energy shield, it was like hitting an invisible wall, shattering one after another, turning into lightning all over the sky, and then dissolving.
"Aiteo, although you are indeed at the eighth level, you are still too weak."
Perlman's voice came out through the energy shield, like the whisper of a god.
Before he finished speaking, Perlman raised his cane.
The energy shield around him suddenly shrank, and then flowed towards Etiou at an unobservable speed.
Etiou immediately began to interweave ice crystal shields, but the speed of condensation was not nearly as fast as Perlman's defensive counterattack.
At the critical moment, a dark figure flashed in front of Etiou.
Nigel crossed his swords, and a dark red shadow appeared on the blades.
He actually used his own body to resist this fatal blow.
His resistance to telekinesis is very high, and he can almost use sword skills to control and offset it.
