Julius, on his side, was caught off guard because the Demon King suddenly appeared and accurately found their hiding place.
Of course he can't beat him in his current situation. Even if he's in full strength, it's still a tough battle against the Demon King. What's more, his teammates only have furlong left?
You must know that the Demon King can face seven or eight ninth-level legendary powerhouses at the same time. Although he is both at the ninth level, he is far more powerful than other ninth-level beings of the same level.
Julius and Furlong, who are at the peak of the ninth level, have returned to their best condition. They still have a chance if they use good tactics. However, exhaustion and insufficient mana are a dead end!
Therefore, Fulon decisively sacrificed his life and was willing to use his life to hold back the Demon King in order to protect Julius and give him a chance to escape.
Julius doesn’t want to abandon his teammates, Furlong is his last partner!
But as a brave man, he also shoulders a heavy responsibility. The burden of the whole world is on his shoulders, and he has no choice!
Therefore, he reluctantly fled, and while Furlong was restraining the Demon King, he quickly took out the scroll bag left by Kallio.
Inside the bag are precious scrolls made by the Dharma God Kallio himself, and ordinary people have no chance to even take a look at them.
Using the magic scroll also consumes mana, otherwise Julius will not escape, but choose to use Kallio's forbidden curse scroll crazily to bombard the demon king.
Considering that he couldn't use the forbidden spell with his current mana, he could only take out the most suitable one for escaping.
In addition to offensive magic spells of various attributes, there are also enough auxiliary scrolls in the bag.
Julius decisively used the [Godly Speed] scroll to increase his running speed several times, and then used a [Low Altitude Flying]. The effects of the two scrolls were added together, and he was able to evacuate at an astonishing speed as if he were flying.
The demon king here is not in a hurry. After finishing Furlong, he is waiting in the sacred hall.
Waiting until the magic disappears and finally getting free, he immediately summons the griffin beast, rides it high into the sky, and quickly chases the hero in the direction of escape.
The brave Julius relied on his divine speed and low-altitude flight to escape to an extremely far place within a few minutes of the Demon King being restrained. When he looked back and saw that the opponent had not caught up, he stopped temporarily and opened the scroll bag, looking for anything that could help him get rid of the pursuit or short-circuit him.
A scroll that restores combat power over time.
Kallio, the god of magic, has various precious scrolls, and indeed has what Julius needs.
After searching, Julius found a forbidden spell called [Life Burning]. This forbidden spell is quite special. It burns life instead of mana, allowing the user to return to full strength in a short time, because it consumes quite terrifying amounts of energy.
HP, after a fifteen or sixteen year old boy uses it up, he will directly become an old man due to the loss of HP.
And at Julius's age, using Life Burn is equivalent to condemning himself to death. With his current vitality, he doesn't know how long it can last.
He will not take risks easily unless he has to.
If you fail to kill the devil and your life force is exhausted and you die first, who will save the world?
So as a last resort, keep it in your arms for the time being.
It's a pity that Kallio has little research on recovery magic and does not have a scroll for quick recovery. After all, he is a destructive magician, not a priest.
Although Furlong is a priest, he knows nothing about making scrolls.
After searching around, I finally picked out one [Guardian of the Earth].
This is not an ordinary shield magic, but changes the terrain, hides oneself in it, and blocks anyone's perception through the power of the earth. It is considered a top-notch concealment magic.
Although he was not sure whether he could deceive the Demon King, Julius had no choice. He couldn't find a more useful scroll. The effects of his divine speed and low-altitude flight had disappeared, and he couldn't run far!
I hope this scroll can help me successfully deceive the devil and recover as much as possible by hiding.
As soon as he returns to his prime, he will take Kallio's scroll bag to seek revenge on the Demon King and make him pay the price.
After tearing up the scroll and consuming part of his mana, the terrain of the mountain forest in front of him really changed. The soil and rocks actively separated to both sides as if they came to life. A very deep crack appeared, and there was a long and narrow staircase with no end in sight.
Julius did not hesitate, quickly entered the crack in the ground along the stairs, and directly entered the hiding space at the bottom.
The cracks began to slowly close after he entered, as if they had never moved, and no flaws could be seen at all.
Hiding deep underground, Julius quickly rested and recovered as much as possible.
The Demon King rode a gryphon to chase him all the way. Although he couldn't see Julius's escape trajectory, he could follow him accurately without missing a beat.
Because the Demon King's griffon has a very terrible sense of smell, it can clearly smell the scent left by Julius. This is its special ability.
After chasing Julius all the way to where he was hiding, the gryphon landed and spun around a few times, then turned around and called out to the Demon King.
"The smell disappeared here?" The Demon King jumped off the back of the griffin and looked around in confusion, "He fled here and disappeared. There is no residual fluctuation of space magic nearby, which means he has not gone far and is nearby! Look again!
"
After receiving the order, the griffon used its strong sense of smell to search again, but still found nothing.
The Demon King did not believe that Julius could disappear. The other party was here, and he must have used some kind of magic to either block the gryphon's sense of smell, or hide in a place where even the gryphon could not find it.
It's very simple for him to find someone. Since the smell has disappeared from here, he can directly release magic on the spot and summon an abyss fire with an astonishing range to burn the entire forest.
In an instant, the huge forest burned down, turning from lush green to charred land.
There was no trace of Julius. If he had hidden in the woods, he would have escaped long before the fire of the abyss burned him.
The Demon King flew into the air on his griffin and circled the burned area several times, but still couldn't find Julius, so he turned around and flew away.
It flies a certain distance, then suddenly turns around and comes back, releasing magic in the air, causing an earthquake in the entire area.
The earth shook wildly and cracked in all directions, which was quite shocking.
With the vibration, the ground suddenly exploded, and Julius jumped out quickly. If he didn't come out again, he would be crushed by the ground.
When the Demon King saw Julius being forced out, he narrowed his eyes and smiled and said, "You think you can deceive me with this little trick? Stop dreaming! Let's end it! Don't even think about leaving here today."
Julius was quite helpless. It seemed that he had no chance to recover his strength and had to fight the Demon King to the death.
He had no choice but to take out the Life Burning Scroll from his arms. His last hope was to fight the Demon King with all his strength and seal it before his life force was exhausted.
Now that you've come this far, there's nothing to hesitate about.
The Demon King saw the scroll in Julius' hand and recognized it at a glance. Knowing that he was going to fight desperately, he said with a smile: "Do you still want to fight to the death? Then come on! But, you will definitely lose this time! Don't expect me to do it.
Make the same mistake as last time!”
Julius didn't reply, he tore the scroll directly, burned his life force, raised the sword of bravery and launched an attack.
"Brother Shen!"
"Um!"
When Shen Changqing walks on the road and meets familiar people, he will say hello or nod to each other.
But no matter who it is.
There is no unnecessary expression on everyone's face, as if they are indifferent to everything.
Regarding this.
Shen Changqing has become accustomed to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, an organization that maintains the stability of the Qin Dynasty. Its main responsibility is to kill monsters and monsters. Of course, it also has some other side jobs.
It can be said.
Everyone in the Demon Suppression Division has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is used to seeing life and death, he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but he got used to it over time.
The Demon-Suppressing Division is huge.
Those who can stay in the Demon Suppressing Division are all powerful masters, or those who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppressor Division is divided into two professions, one is the Guardian Envoy and the other is the Demon Slayer.
Anyone who enters the Demon Slayer Department starts from the lowest level as a demon slayer.
Then he will be promoted step by step, and eventually he is expected to become a guardian envoy.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level among the demon slayers.
Possess the memory of the previous life.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of a loft.
Unlike other places in the Demon Suppression Division that are full of chills, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, showing a different kind of tranquility in the bloody Demon Suppression Division.
At this time, the attic door was open, and occasionally people came in and out.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment before stepping in.
Enter the attic.
The environment changes in vain.
The fragrance of ink mixed with the faint smell of blood hit his face, causing him to frown instinctively, but then relaxed it quickly.
There is almost no way to cleanse away the smell of blood on everyone in the Zhenmo Division.
