Magic Chronicles : Fallen Race

Shermen momentarily diverted her attention to contact the Sorcery Demon and the Wisdom Demon using the secret methods of the demon race.

As a result, Ariel, the deranged noble young lady, seemingly more venomous than the demons themselves, immediately got energized again, especially after she fully heard the elf\'s dying message to Reji.

Ariel clearly did not recognize the elf race.

But from the conversation just now, she could mostly guess that these blond green-eyed individuals were not some mud race foreigners, but very likely another type of nobility.

However, none of that mattered now.

Ariel\'s expression was incredibly agitated, giving Reji a look as if to say "you\'re dead".

The reason was very simple.

"What did Ariel hear? Demons! He just mentioned demons! The demons are coming back to the earth, Ariel\'s true kin are returning!!

Hahaha!!"

"It\'s useless, no matter how many people you call, it\'s useless! Useless! Hahaha!"

Ariel naturally assumed that Reji was scared, panicking, and in a hurry to call more humans over, to report the intelligence that the demon race might reappear to the higher-ups, to discuss countermeasures.

This "Demon Egg" carrier, who recognized the "demon race," obviously knew much more about the "historical" truth of a thousand years ago than other ordinary humans.

Therefore, Ariel was so excited when she heard "the reappearance of the demon race."

"A thousand years ago, you hypocritical followers of the Radiant Church, slandered the demons cultivator who worshipped \'Immortality\' as aliens, expelled them from humanity, vilified our kin as horrifying monsters, using terms like \'monstrosities\' and \'demons\' to refer to us, attempting to prevent humans from pursuing eternal life."

"And what happened? The ignorant sages of a thousand years ago succeeded, but what about a thousand years later? Hahaha! The people who stopped the demons back then have all turned into skeletons, into dirt.

What\'s left after a thousand years are just masses and masses of inferior, lowly mud races! Only the followers of \'Immortality\', only we demons, remain eternal and indestructible!"

"To be called the same race as these mud races is simply a disgrace to Ariel! Since you all call us demons, then we are demons!"

"You can\'t stop us, no one can! With even a fourth-tier spell lost to you, what do you have to stop us. Hahaha! Hahahaha!"

Actually, Reji didn\'t mind letting Ariel rant a bit longer.

Because people tend to reveal more truths when they are emotionally charged.

Unfortunately.

*Buzz!*

Suddenly, from beneath their feet, a spell seal emitting a deep blue light began to flicker, quickly forming in the blink of an eye.

With the emergence of the blue light seal, a powerful force of sorcery immediately swept through the entire basement.

This is Seventh-tier Sorcery[Silent Domain]

Reji recognized this skill immediately.

It was one of the Sorcery Demon\'s abilities.

The effect of the sorcery was that all non-ally units within the domain would be forcibly applied with an indispellable "Seal" status, unable to use any sorcery, special abilities, and all passive talents would also be forcefully nullified.

And in practical way, Just as Ariel, who had been ranting and raving, suddenly seemed to be struck by a powerful electric current, her whole body convulsed, waves of piercing pain surged like tides, as if all the meridians in her body were being tightened and oppressed.

This was normal.

The [Silent Domain]effect is stronger on sorcerers who primarily use "magic power." The domain suppresses the flow of magic throughout the body, those meridians that store magic power, being sealed and blocked, even shriveled up, would present Ariel in the state she was now.

\'It seems Dian has arrived\'

Let the Sorcery Demon come if he must.

But why make such a big scene.

Reji thought that this seventh-tier sorcery was the end, but it turned out to be just the beginning.

Just as the blue light seal symbolizing [Silent Domain]ended, the next sorcery\'s barrier pattern lit up beneath Reji and their feet.

This time the entire basement, no, the range of the seventh-tier sorcery couldn\'t be this small. Although Reji couldn\'t see it, the ground of the entire Count\'s manor was already covered by a crimson ritual light.

This time it was a Seventh-tier Sorcery[Blood Surge]

Also one of the Sorcery Demon\'s skills.

The effect of the sorcery, similar to the previous [Silent Domain], but from the name, it can be seen that this time it targets the physical body.

It applies "Stiffness," "Bleeding," and other abnormal states to all non-ally units, unable to use any combat skills, significantly reducing mobility, any action will deduct health points, the more actions taken, the more severe the deduction.

And now.

*Pfft! Pfft! Pfft!*

Just after experiencing intense pain due to the shrinkage of her body\'s magic power, the next moment, all the blood vessels on the surface of Ariel\'s skin bulged out.

With even a slight movement from Ariel, these bulging blood vessels, like fragile pieces of paper, directly shattered, with blood gushing out violently.

Following [Silent Domain]and [Blood Surge], it still wasn\'t over.

The next to flicker into existence was the third, a deep and dark sorcery barrier.

This time Ariel could finally catch her breath.

Because this sorcery was of the summoning type.

From the ground around the basement, one void rift after another was torn open, and immediately after, a pair of pale bone fingers were the first to extend from the rifts.

The bone fingers grasped the ground firmly, and with a forceful pull, the monster lurking beneath the void rift completely climbed out.

It was a skeletal undead standing four to five meters tall, its entire body made up of bones.

Its hollow eye sockets burned with vigorous nether flames, and its seemingly pale skeleton actually contained immense strength. Just standing there, it emitted a terrifying aura that made Ariel shiver uncontrollably, trembling all over.

The most terrifying aspect was that these towering undead, which Ariel had never seen before, were not just one or two, but five, ten, twenty... The void rifts kept tearing open space, and the high-ranking undead crawling out from them seemed endless.

This was not a seventh-tier sorcery.

It was an eighth-tier ritual[Army of the Undead]

The best proof of this was that these undead were differentiated into various ranks, some wielding giant bone shields, others carrying serrated bone swords, some dual-wielding bone spikes, and some clutching bone staves.

Of course, no matter how diverse, fierce, or powerful these undead professions were, they shared one commonality that remained unchanged.

That was.

They all began to swarm towards Reji\'s position.

Shield-bearing undead stood in front of Reji, bone sword-wielding undead followed closely on both sides, like the most loyal guards.

Assassin undead remained vigilant around, while mage undead began to wave their bone staves, casting layer upon layer of protective barriers on Reji.

The basement, which had been quite spacious just a moment ago, was instantly filled with undead.

And at the very center, Reji, who was surrounded by high-ranking undead in an impenetrable formation.

Reji: "."

Fortunately.

After three consecutive barriers flickered beneath his feet, there was finally not a fourth one.

Actually, there was.

But this one was a camouflage barrier. From the outside, one would notice a huge dark dome completely enveloping the airspace above the Count\'s manor, concealing and hiding the entire manor\'s aura in the dead of night.

After all this.

Right next to Reji, a rift portal was constructed, and soon after, the figure of Sorcery Demon Dian could be seen rapidly materializing within.

Because the Sorcery Demon\'s own strength was so formidable, the teleportation magic required more time.

And those sorceries before were probably because the Sorcery Demon was in a hurry; before his body arrived, he cast a few seventh-tier magics from afar to assist himself, or, to resolve the dilemma?

Reji guessed correctly.

As soon as Dian completed the teleportation, his body arrived, and the Sorcery Demon immediately rushed over to Reji, vigilantly sensing his surroundings.

Though wearing a crow mask, one could still clearly feel Dian\'s utmost seriousness and dedication.

Another strong piece of evidence was that the Sorcery Demon even took out his crow staff. At the level of a Sorcery Demon, needing to use the "crow staff" for assistance would only be for ninth-tier, tenth-tier, or even "transcendent" ritual sorceries.
