The Lord Demon King is Unfathomable!

However, just as he lifted his disheveled head, he saw a well-armed elite force appear at the end of his field of vision!

Those Demon soldiers were clad in uniform Black Armor, with square shields on their backs, holding half-a-man-tall Heavy Crossbows engraved with Engravings!

As a former member of the Maze, he knew too well the identities of those people—

They were the Black Dragon Crossbowmen of Desperate City!

It is said that all three thousand of those Heavy Crossbows' strings were made of Black Dragon sinew through the secret techniques of Dragon Hunters, capable of easily piercing the Protective Aura of Silver Level Warriors within a hundred steps!

In terms of power alone, this thing is much more formidable than Firearms, the only shortcoming being the limited number; after all, Giant Dragons are not common and far from easy to deal with.

Reggie Dragon had previously claimed to have three thousand Black Dragon Heavy Crossbows, but whether there are even two thousand is questionable, after all, no one has counted them one by one, and more likely there are ordinary bows included to make up the numbers.

Regardless of how many genuine weapons there are, the reputation of the Black Dragon Crossbowmen is well-known in Thunder County and beyond.

It is said that on the battlefield, even the famous Trident Knights have to avoid their sharpness...although even without considering the special nature of the Black Dragon Crossbowmen, it's rare for any Knight group to charge directly into the front of Crossbowmen's position.

Kassen Skullcrusher's pupils slightly constricted.

What he dreaded was not the Black Dragon Heavy Crossbow, but the fact that three of the four remaining Demon Generals of Thunder County's Maze appeared here!

It seems that during his absence, the Maze really underwent no small changes.

Speaking of which—

He has yet to see that half-blood Shadow Demon so far.

At that moment, Kassen suddenly realized something.

However, just as he was about to find a handy weapon next to him, a cold dagger had already quietly approached his throat.

In an instant, so fast that he couldn't even react, a wisp of smoke-like shadow blew his head off.

Watching Thanos suddenly appear behind the Chosen of the Chaos God, Bransia who was about to order to shoot slowly lowered the Thorny Whip she had just raised.

At that time, Xino, holding a Battle Axe, ran over from a distance.

"Wait a minute—"

As soon as he finished speaking, the standing headless corpse and the flown-off head both happened to land on the ground at the same time.

Looking at Xino Dragon running from a distance, Thanos who stood beside the headless body slightly frowned, puzzled, and said.

"Is there a problem?"

"This won't kill him..." It was still too late, Xino reluctantly repeated his discovery.

After hearing it, Thanos showed a surprised expression, frowned and contemplated for a while, but remained indifferent.

"It doesn't matter, he's just an ant," he said casually, shaking the dagger in his hand, "I'll just kill him again when the time comes."

Even if the Chosen of Chaos could resurrect time and again, that guy's strength couldn't possibly expand infinitely.

In the end, it is humans who decide the total amount of Extraordinary Power, gods only decide the rules of distribution.

Thanos may not understand these deep reasons, but his experience told him that the blessings mortals could receive from the divine had limits.

Otherwise, what would be the point of the war between Hell and the surface world to mere mortals? It would simply turn into a contest of bragging rights.

As he spoke, his eyes turned to the Black Knight locked in fierce battle with Glak, licking his lips with excitement.

Unlike that Ogre.

That guy might become an interesting opponent!

Watching Thanos turn away, Xino was left speechless.

And at that moment, a series of shadows darted past him, following in Thanos's footsteps toward the Black Knight.

They were the Assassin Corps loyal to Thanos.

Though their numbers were far fewer than the soldiers under the other three Demon Generals, nobody dared to underestimate this force lurking in the shadows!

Bransia, clad in full military attire, stood under the military flag of Desperate City, looking at the direction where the shadows disappeared, her smile full of implications.

She had originally thought Thanos was going to do it himself, but she didn't expect him to bring out his most valued forces to the battlefield.

This made her wonder if he had done something secretly to the Demon King or had some leverage over him.

Shaking off the offspring clinging to his body, Valgur looked in the direction of the incoming crossbow bolts, his deep voice and frost-bound Breath spouting from his fierce maw.

"Thank you."

There wasn't much gratitude in that voice, after all, in his view, even without help he could have dealt with that group of buzzing mosquitoes. It would have just taken more time.

But Bransia didn't mind and simply said with a smile.

"You're welcome."

As soon as her words fell, she swung her Thorny Whip forward, and the Black Dragon Crossbowmen who had reloaded unleashed another volley of arrow rain towards the rear of the Chaos Army.

The battle is not over yet!

Xino, unable to concern himself with others for the moment, took a short breath, then grabbed his Axe and plunged back into the fray.

Even if the servants of Calmandes were immortal and would resurrect before long, to close the Gate of Chaos, he had to defeat them on the battlefield!

Meanwhile, at the very center of the battlefield, as arrows and Magic Light whizzed overhead, the Players yelled out their thrills and excitement.

The scale and intensity of this battle had risen more than one level compared to the previous fight in the Mist Forest.
