NOVEL NEXT Chapter 100: Historically Significant Potency!
Amidst the Ice Blade Frost Splendor, the Flame Demon first noticed the encroaching Mirror Images.
After all, a dozen Tier One units with Spiritual Reaction wielding epic-level lightning-flashing weapons were too conspicuous.
He immediately swung his burning scythe at the surrounding illusions.
The violent wide-range attack left scorching airwaves in the sky.
But such a fierce strike did not trigger the satisfying feeling of a blade sinking into flesh, dealing a critical hit, as he imagined.

It was like slashing with all his might into cotton; all that was left was a sense of frustration! Three attack targets, two misses! The other one had most of the damage blocked and reduced.
Unconvinced, he immediately swung another three slashes.

A screen full of misses!
He felt as though his chest was packed with old blood, the combat experience was extremely poor! There was no joy of blades cleanly cutting into flesh, only frustration and bitterness. Despite possessing endless power, he couldn't hit his opponent at all!
How could there be such an annoying opponent; the combat experience was incredibly frustrating.
But being attacked by them was a completely different feeling; the damage of the Epic Longsword was terrifying. His physical damage, Spiritual Damage, Thunder Damage, Divine Damage, and True Damage all exploded simultaneously. Even a high-tier Flame Demon saw its health bar rapidly deplete, especially with a dozen Mirror Images attacking at once, the damage was constantly on the screen.
In the distance, there was a main body acting as a magic cannon platform, most outrageous was how it forcibly felt like a magic machine gun instead.
The Flame Demon seized the moment when the blinding effect ended and instantly teleported in front of the main body, swinging his flame scythe rapidly. This skill allowed rapid strikes in a short amount of time.
As a Super-Tier Demon, his attacks were naturally formidable. Even the attached True Damage alone was over a thousand points, meaning his normal attacks were brutally fierce, potentially dealing tens of thousands in one hit. High-tier troops couldn't withstand a few of his slashes.
So he forcefully withstood many misses before the other Mirror Images could encircle, successfully shattering the layers of transparent Jade Ice surrounding the main body.
However, as a mage, it was impossible to just stand there and take the hits, so the main body fought while retreating.
The Flame Demon was enraged, enduring all the attacks from the Mirror Images, chasing after the main body, exchanging health till he painstakingly emptied the main body's health bit by bit.
But as the "main body" in front of him dissipated into specks in the air, the Flame Demon was completely dumbfounded.
After all his effort, the main body he managed to shatter was just a Mirror Image?
The Flame Demon's shock did nothing to lessen the battle's intensity. Moments later, Lin Rui pierced the Flame Demon's throat with his sword, slicing right to sever its neck completely. Even in death, the powerful demon's eyes were filled with resentment and frustration.
Sheathing his sword, Lin Rui couldn't help but smile; this Mirror Image skill was simply a divine skill against demons.
These demons, with their brains constantly washed by anger, only had rage and madness in mind, just wanting to slash everything in front of them with their massive blades. They couldn't calm themselves enough to discern which was a Mirror Image and which was the main body.
If it were described in stats, it would be Lin Rui having an Attack and Defense +250% during combat with demons!
Audrey's Undead Soldiers delivered the spoils, and Audrey, holding the fiery glowing blast fall, took a deep breath and said to Lin Rui: "Lord, it's truly a stroke of luck. Look what was dropped."
Lin Rui took the scorching orb, and the system notification immediately sounded.
[Ding, item acquired: Demon Origin *1]
[Demon Origin: Power of a Super-Tier Demon, an extremely precious sacrificial item]
[Using it on a soldier grants them the Power of Demon Origin, adding 100 True Damage to all attacks]
[Gain 10*(tier difference) main attribute points]
[Gain 5000 Spiritual Energy Value]
Lin Rui's eyes lit up; Demon Power, truly a stroke of luck!
The general populace couldn't stand the power of this Super-Tier Flame Demon; during its brief appearance, dozens of buildings in the territory were set ablaze, numerous resources burned, and even many Undead Soldiers perished.
These were all Audrey's prized assets; each one was a sturdy and powerful undead mainstay.
Under the scythe of the Super-Tier Flame Demon, they disintegrated in batches.
It was not that the Undead Soldiers were weak; even the Sun Flame Knights and Black Guard Army, the territory's main force, would struggle against such a teleporting Super-Tier Demon without suffering dozens of casualties.
But such a heavy price brought huge rewards.
This Demon Power could instantly boost a soldier's attributes by dozens of points at 10*(tier difference); this Abyssal Flame Demon was Tier Six, meaning Tier Three Troops could instantly gain 30 main attribute points, and Tier Two Troops could gain 40 main attribute points.
It also provided 5000 Spiritual Energy Value; such a boost in strength was truly unprecedented.
Lin Rui decisively said to Audrey: "Give this Demon Origin to Schwartz; adding 100 True Damage to all his attacks, combined with his Flaming Storm on the battlefield, would make him a legion killer."
The Imperial Dawn Legion was about to advance to a Demon Sorcerer Legion.
Come to think of it, the Imperial Dawn Legion with a bit of a dark style is quite cool.
Having arranged things, Lin Rui instructed the arriving Civil Servant Soro: "Organize someone to put out the fires immediately, and let the lucky ones chosen by the Lucky Coin: Sand Washing in the territory come find me."
