Chapter 244: Demon King's Possession

Chapter 244: Demon King's Possession

The Heroes of the Thunderous Society were dumbfounded. President Luo had just displayed immense power, only to be defeated head-on by an elf who seemingly appeared out of nowhere. Was there anything more ironic than this?

This Elven King was truly terrifying! Summoning five monarch units, each representing one an Elemental King, inherently possessed formidable, earth-shattering power. Yet, she went a step further, unleashing the full might of all five elemental Kings, converging their energies into a single devastating attack. The sheer force of this attack was overwhelming. Even units of the same rank and level would sustain significant injuries if subjected to it head-on. Who could withstand such power? Undoubtedly, she was no ordinary Elven King.

In fact, she was a super powerhouse among the elves, a remarkable figure even among all Elven Kings. The entrance of the Arcane Giant had caused shockwaves throughout the imperial camp, and the defeat it suffered now dealt a significant blow to the imperial forces. This legendary Mage King, who had yet to unleash widespread destruction, was directly struck in the face before he could make her move. The impact of this defeat was immense, causing shivers down the spines of the imperial forces.

Nancilia's timely intervention was crucial. If the Arcane Giant had continued to wreak havoc unchecked, not only would the Darkness City's three dragons face dire consequences, but the entire army of the Darkness City would suffer heavy losses.

Of course, this round of attacks also took a toll on Nancilia. Summoning five Level 6 monarch units was no simple task. She turned to Long Yi and said, "The Mage King's arcane incarnation has been shattered, and he will undoubtedly suffer backlash, but he won't be fatally wounded. We can't underestimate him."

The battle was far from over, and there was no room for complacency. Tien City remained a tough nut to crack. Luo Zheng had been temporarily defeated, but he had not perished yet, and the other Heroes, along with the Blood Lion Knights, posed a significant threat.

Long Yi reassured, "We can handle the other Heroes and the empire's lackeys. However, dealing with the mage, Halyfax, may require Your Excellency, the Elven King, to intervene."

Nancilia nodded, "Leave it to me." She raised her staff, and thousands of vines surged forward like a river, washing over Tien City. While these tendrils could not directly dismantle the fortified city's protective barrier, they absorbed its power, weakening the defense.

"Charge!"

"For Darkness City!"

"For the Chaos Federation!"

"Capture this city and exterminate the damn Heroes!"

Under the command of the Dark Dragon King, everyone launched their assault. The thunderous lightning blast from the ten true dragons swiftly cut open a massive breach in the weakened barrier.

"Damn it all!"

"Don't let the Demon King succeed!"

"Long live the Empire! Long live Bachor!"

The Heroes and knights of the empire roared in response. This battle could not end in reconciliation; they had to press on with unwavering determination.

Thunderclap Guild's Xing Rong activated his transformation skill, morphing into a demonic figure with horns, joining the fray against Long Yi. Under normal circumstances, two Level 6 Heroes could contend with a Level 5 monarch unit. However, the Darkness City forces had four monarch units present, including Nancilia, the top-tier Level 6 Elven King. Without Luo Zheng's intervention, relying solely on the power of the Thunderous Guild would be challenging to cope with this force.

Now, the biggest suspense lingered: could Luo Zheng still fight?

If Luo Zheng could rejoin the battle, the empire still held the advantage. He only needed to hold off the formidable Elven King, allowing the major guilds and top-tier Heroes to handle the three Dragon Kings. This combined force could definitely rival Darkness City, which could lead to the worst case scenario where both sides suffered losses, if not mutually assured destruction in this battle.

In the midst of the tense atmosphere within the imperial camp, a powerful magical force struck the Darkness City forces. Emerging from the midst of the Darkness City forces, an inconspicuous ice crystal was summoned. Despite its unassuming appearance, the contained frigid power was exceptionally terrifying.

Nancilia was surprised, "I've lost control of my body!"

Zhang Nu said calmly, "Don't panic. I'm remotely controlling you. Let me take over the fight from here."

"What? I'm being remotely controlled by His Majesty?" Nancilia found it hard to believe. Nevertheless, her unwavering trust in the Demon King prevented her from resisting, and she relaxed her body.

After the Demon King's Possession, the target could act freely and be remotely manipulated. Zhang Nu was currently using the latter method. Although he was in the distant Demon King Castle in the Darkness City, he could use Nancilia's body and a portion of her power, along with some of his own strength, to engage in combat. Of course, the time was limited, at most a dozen minutes. Thus, he must end this battle swiftly.

"What's going on?" Luo Zheng immediately noticed that the opponent's aura and presence were abnormal. "Something's off! Kill her quickly!" The present Heroesimmediately took action. Luo Zheng unleashed three A-rank spells in an instant. Various energies enveloped the Elven King like a torrential storm. In this situation, escape was nearly impossible. Even with the formidable defense of the Elven King, it would be rapidly depleted, eventually rendering her completely powerless.

"Abyssal Devour!" Nancilia stomped her foot, and an endless black mist spread from her body, expanding in concentric circles like a colossal vortex, covering everything within hundreds of meters. All magical energies and various Qi attacks were drawn into the black mist. What? What kind of magic was this? It was entirely different from the Elven King's previous combat methods. Luo Zheng could not explain the reason, but there must have been some change in the Elven King.

"Oh no!"

"Stop!"

"She's absorbing our power!"

After the attacks were absorbed by the black vortex, it turned red, compressing the energies, gathering them in the Elven King's left hand, forming a high-density energy sphere. At the same time, five Elemental Kings were resummoned, and as soon as they were summoned, all their energy was transformed, converging on the Elven King's Scepter in her right hand.

"Elemental Fusion!" The Elven King threw the energy sphere from her left hand and simultaneously released the power of the five elements. The two forces collided in the air, unleashing an energy more dazzling than the sun, with a destructive shockwave that expanded uncontrollably, engulfing all targets present. Nancilia herself almost did not manage to escape. However, just before being engulfed, she forcibly tore open a spatial rift and instantly teleported away.

Boom! Accompanied by a dazzling light, everyone in Tien City saw a giant mushroom cloud rising. Under this energy coverage, everything turned to ashes.

"This..." Nancilia could not dare to imagine.

The power of the Demon King's Possession had also been exhausted. Before leaving, Zhang Nu said to Nancilia, "The trouble has been dealt with. The rest is up to you."

"Your Majesty, rest assured. That old mage is dead, and the others are not worth worrying about!"

Once again, she was amazed by the unfathomable power of the Demon King. Withdrawing his consciousness, within the Demon King's castle, the Great Demon King slowly opened his eyes. Zhang Nu regarded that the power of the Demon King's possession was quite useful. Although the duration was very short and could only project a minimal portion of power onto his subjects, it was enough to unleash unexpected effects without exposing his true condition.

When he checked the information panel, numerous notifications flashed.
