Chapter 32 Queen of the Demi-humans
"Ring ring ring".
"Ring ring ring".
With a crisp bell ring, two Grik soldiers and the soul jellyfish Kurala materialized.
Xia Tong did not linger in the battle, but instead directed the ashes to gather together and form a defensive circle.
Xia Tong led the way, with the ashes surrounding him.
Xia Tong always remembered the sentence attached to the parchment intelligence:
"As long as we can defeat the Demi-human Queen, the remaining Demi-humans will scatter like birds and beasts."
At this moment, large numbers of demi-humans surged towards Xia Tong.
There are at least seventy or eighty of them, by sight.
The sheer number of them left Xia Tong speechless.
This is much more than when I was playing games.
But upon closer reflection, it makes sense. After all, this is one of the headquarters of the Ajin Group, the place where the Ajin Queen resides, so it's normal for there to be a large number of people here.
Of course, this isn't the only demi-human queen in the game.
Fortunately, these ordinary demi-humans were not strong and were physically weak.
When Xia Tong and the ashes formed a tight encirclement back to back, their destructive power was not great.
They can handle it with ease.
With a "whoosh" sound!
Xia Tong gripped his sword with both hands and slashed down a demi-human who was not even as tall as his chest.
The sword cleaved into his shoulder blade, down to his waist and abdomen.
Blood was everywhere.
The opponent's crude weapons, made from tree branches, were as fragile as paper in front of the king's army's greatswords.
This immediately instilled fear in the surrounding subhumans, causing them to slow their attacks.
"Boom! Boom!"
The fanged imp's magic pot exploded at full capacity all around.
Each explosion renders at least two or three demi-humans incapable of fighting.
As for the soul jellyfish Kurala, each time it sprays out its corrosive acid, it can cause at least a group of demi-humans to wail in pain and roll on the ground.
"ah--!"
A sharp howl rang out from ahead.
The slender, subhuman figures, resembling a crowd, parted to the sides.
A burly, taller subhuman emerged from it.
It charged at Xia Tong, howling as it brandished a spiked club.
The spiked club was covered in sharp points and was probably one of the finest weapons in the tribe.
Large-sized demi-human!
Despite being described as a tall subhuman, he was actually only a head taller than Xia Tong.
She was a size bigger than Xia Tong, but she was far from being a giant.
They are far inferior to the previous Night Riders.
Therefore, for Xia Tong, this sense of oppression was too weak.
This time he did not back down.
Instead, he took a sharp step forward with his left foot and gripped the burning greatsword tightly with both hands.
He stared intently at the tall, subhuman figure charging towards him.
When the other person was still a meter away from Xia Tong.
Xia Tong shouted loudly.
The king's greatsword drew a perfect crescent arc from bottom to top!
Combat Technique - Step (Upward Slash)!
The scorching heat from the oil made Xia Tong's hair dance wildly like weeds in water.
This sword strike was accompanied by the whistling sound of air being torn apart and the explosive sound of flames burning!
"Bang!"
With a huge, muffled sound.
This arrogant, towering subhuman was actually sent flying by Xia Tong's sword!
Xia Tong had mastered the stepping upward slash of the King's Army's greatsword to an extremely high degree.
The power of this strike was considerable.
The tall, heavy body of the demi-human was sent flying backward, crashing heavily into four or five ordinary demi-humans behind him.
Xia Tong seized the opportunity, slightly bending her right knee, and launched herself out like a cannonball.
The ash-covered warriors behind Xia Tong followed closely, helping him deal with the enemies behind him, so that he had no worries!
In an instant.
The loud boom of the magic pot exploding.
The screams caused by the acid spray.
The screams of the demi-humans.
And the whooshing sound of Xia Tong wielding the burning Monarch's Greatsword.
The sound rang out in unison.
The commotion grew louder and louder.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Just at this time.
In the distance, in the ruins where the Demi-human Queen was located, one of the walls of the dilapidated buildings had collapsed!
Amidst the rising dust, a giant, unusually tall demi-human emerged.
"Hiss—ah!"
Ordinary demi-humans are only the size of monkeys or dwarfs.
However, this demi-human queen was extremely large, standing four or five meters tall.
Compared to it, the ordinary demi-humans around it were as laughable as tiny raccoon dogs.
To Xia Tong, the head looked like a giant dog's head.
Its fangs were exposed, and its eyes were cloudy, but they revealed a primal ferocity.
Compared to other demi-humans around it, it had almost no fur.
It was just draped in a few tattered pieces of gray cloth, resembling a comical robe.
On his head was a very comical crown that he had picked up from who-knows-where!
Perhaps because its evolution was incomplete, it could hardly stand up completely and always had its back hunched over.
Even so, it is still exceptionally tall!
no doubt!
This is the most intimidating opponent Xia Tong has ever encountered!
Xia Tong's eyes were fixed on the radiant stone staff in its hand—the Demi-human Queen's Staff!
It is inlaid with a small but faintly blue pyroxene!
"This should be the staff that the Caria royal family bestowed upon the demi-human group."
Xia Tong thought to herself.
Then, he gave a shout, signaling the Ashes Battle Group to follow closely behind him.
To catch the thief, first catch the king!
He looked at the tiny human rushing towards him.
The demi-human queen let out a strange cry.
It felt an overwhelming aversion and fear towards the flames on that sword.
The brilliance stone on the staff slowly lit up.
"Pop!"
Like a shotgun, it instantly sprayed out a large number of shattered magic crystals.
It rained down on Xia Tong like a tidal wave.
"Well done!"
Xia Tong still did not back down.
He raised the King's Army Greatsword high, and amidst the roar of flames, continued his charge towards the demi-human queen.
It only occasionally deflects those magic crystals aimed at vital points!
"Swoosh! Swoosh!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Only a small portion of the magic crystals hit Xia Tong and his Ashes Battle Group.
Xia Tong only had a few scratches on her arm and was otherwise unharmed.
However, the group of demi-human soldiers who followed closely behind Xia Tong suffered the consequences.
They were all defeated by their queen's magic.
These demi-humans have low defense and low intelligence, and do not know how to dodge.
The demi-human queen's attack, which "severely hit friendly forces," actually greatly reduced the pressure on Xia Tong and the others!
Perhaps it was because they realized that the spell was not achieving the desired effect.
The demi-human queen will not use magic this time.
Instead, she braced herself with one hand on the ground and swung the huge demi-human queen's staff with the other, smashing it down hard towards Xia Tong.
"call--"
The wind was howling.
Xia Tong performed a forward roll, narrowly avoiding the staff that was about to strike him!
"Bang!"
The ground was smashed into a large crater.
The two demi-humans behind her, who originally intended to hack Xia Tong to death with a flurry of blows, became scapegoats.
This move directly smashed those two unlucky guys, breaking their bones and leaving them lying on the ground, unable to get up.
When her first smash failed, the Demi-human Queen switched to a long-arm sweep.
With a "whoosh" sound!
Just then, a purplish-red liquid streaked across the sky.
The acid spray from the soul jellyfish Kurala landed precisely on the demi-human queen's body.
It's too big and moves too slowly, so hitting it is almost a certainty.
"Hiss—"
Suddenly, wisps of blue smoke rose from the demi-human queen's body, along with the pungent smell of flesh being corroded.
"Awooo—!"
It howled in agony.
One hand slapped its body haphazardly, trying to wipe away the acid.
The staff in his other hand lit up again.
The crystals shimmered and shot out fiercely in all directions!
Indiscriminate attack!
Immediately, another large number of demi-humans collapsed to the ground.
Xia Tong's ash army only suffered minor scratches on the lone wolf, but it was nothing serious.
Most of the injuries were from cuts inflicted by the chaotic demi-humans around him, but these were only superficial wounds.
"Your Majesty, you wouldn't want your people to suffer, would you?"
A mischievous glint appeared in Xia Tong's eyes.
If the Queen dies soon, her people will no longer have to suffer the pain of being ravaged by her.
While the demi-human queen was being corroded by the acid and was in a state of confusion, they took advantage of the moment.
Xia Tong pressed closer!
With a forward lunge and a sliding step, it circled around to its side and rear.
He gripped the sword with both hands and aimed it at its unsuspecting rear.
A fierce thrust!
"Pfft!"
That sword struck solidly!
The excruciating pain rendered the demi-human queen unable to stand; her legs buckled, and she could only support herself with her hands to prevent herself from falling.
Now, the two fanged little devils, who had been starving for a long time, stopped bothering with the ordinary demi-humans around them.
They shrieked and jumped onto the back of the demi-human queen.
Sharp claws dug deep into its flesh.
The forked hand axe in his hand went in and out of its body wildly, bringing up sprays of blood!
