Infernal Artist

Yorktown is a small city.

In the morning, its city lord ran away with his followers.

That being the case, it was only a matter of time before we captured it.

Those powerful and evil devil lords have already set their sights on large cities with many professionals, complete defenses and dense populations.

For York City -

There are a total of 790 middle and low-level devil soldiers responsible for the siege.

Yorktown's fate was sealed.

And indeed it was, it was massacred in one day.

Then.

Things have taken a different turn.

A team of thirty professionals suddenly appeared at the city gate.

Thirty people.

Faced with seven hundred and ninety devils.

The level of both sides is not high.

But there was one decisive factor that caused the entire battle to take a turn for the worse——

The guy hiding behind a ferocious monster, with justice written all over his face, and saying "Devils also need a chance to change their past".

——He is the knight captain of the York City garrison.

Whenever a devil is injured, a divine light will appear on his hands.

Regardless of whether it was a human or a devil, once he was injured, he would not hesitate to use high-level healing techniques to miraculously disappear the wound.

——He directly turned a team of thirty professionals into a gleaming meat grinding mill.

The whole team fought their way to the city square.

Anyone who is injured can be treated immediately and can recover in just a few breaths.

Professionals only need to worry about how to pierce the weapon into the devil's body.

——Many professionals even gave up their skills and directly hacked each other with the charging devils.

From beginning to end, neither humans nor devils expected this to be the case.

The devils have organized several decent raids.

But beside the knight commander, a several-meter-tall demon cat directly crushed all the assassinations.

It closely guards the knight commander.

Only in certain gaps where it is sure to be safe, this demon cat will quietly escape.

Not long after, it quickly returned to the knight commander and placed the devil in its mouth at the knight commander's feet.

The knight commander stretched out a foot——

He stepped on the dying devil's face, looked at it for a moment, and said softly: "This one is going to die soon, let's get another one."

"Meow!"

The demon cat picked up the devil and ran out instantly.

Soon.

It once again held a devil in its mouth and threw it at the feet of the knight captain.

This time the knight commander was satisfied.

"Zhao Mingguang, come with shackles on your hands and feet," he said.

A soldier ran up and without waiting for further instructions from the Knight Commander, he skillfully handcuffed the devil's hands and feet to death, then carefully took out a rune collar and fastened it around the devil's neck.

"This is a magic-forbidden collar. Once it dares to make any small move, it will immediately - bang!"

The warrior said in a tone of merit, and then looked at the knight commander expectantly.

"Well done!"

The Knight Commander patted him on the shoulder, and then said silently to the void: "Give him a hint:"

"The York City Guard Knight Commander's favorability towards you has increased."

A line of burning small words appeared in the void:

"The corresponding prompt has been given."

As expected, the warrior looked into the void in front of him.

He looked at the void intently, and after a while, his face gradually showed joy.

"Brother, I have a lot more here, why don't we put collars on all these captured devils."

"Okay." The knight said.

The soldier squatted down and put collars on the captured devils.

"Tell him that the knight commander's favorability has increased again."

The knight commander said quietly to the void.

The joy on the soldier's face became even brighter. He quickly tied up all the devils, stood up, and asked curiously:

"What's the point of catching them? Why not just kill them?"

"My scouts told me that the devils have completed an ultra-long-distance summons in the central square of the city, and a powerful guy will arrive here soon," the knight chief said.

This is the most important thing in the entire battle.

Because these devils still hope that reinforcements will come, they still refuse to surrender.

Yana's ability cannot be extracted by herself at all.

"I understand, you want to use these prisoners to negotiate terms!" the soldier suddenly realized.

"Stop talking nonsense, go and command the battle!" the knight chief said.

"Yes!" The soldier hurriedly went.

The knight captain grabbed the chain in his hand, dragged seven or eight devils, and continued to walk forward.

…

Thirty minutes later.

Liu Ping stood in the square of York City, his whole body covered with boiling light.

"Congratulations, you have completed your mission."

He smiled.

The professionals lay staggering on the ground, breathing heavily and dying of exhaustion.

Even though it won’t hurt——

But there are more than 700 devils, and on average each person has to kill more than 20. Even if they are killing pigs, they are already exhausted to the limit.

"Lord Knight, treasure... gem." Zhao Mingguang gasped.

"It's like this -" Liu Ping coughed lightly and said, "The mine is just outside the city. In view of your outstanding performance, I will give you half a day. You will own as many gems as you can dig."

He added: "Zhao Mingguang can dig for half an hour longer."

The professionals cheered.

As for Zhao Mingguang——

He showed that "all the hard work finally paid off handsomely" expression.

Liu Ping also smiled and nodded.

The reserves of the mine have actually been almost exhausted.

But he believed that with the abilities of professionals, it was still very possible to dig three feet into the ground and dig out thirty, even forty or fifty gems.

——Professionals like this kind of open reward.

In this way, the original sixty gems were saved.

I am also very happy.

Everyone is happy.

In addition, through this battle, Andrea's awakening level has reached 70%.

The soul power given by more than seven hundred devils is quite impressive.

Everything is going in the right direction.

"Master Knight, the evil ritual here seems to have been completed. The powerful devil is probably coming soon. Is it true that we don't need to continue to serve?" Zhao Mingguang asked tentatively.

"No, your mission has been completed, go mining." Liu Ping said.

Everyone winked at each other, as if they wanted to test him.

Liu Ping looked toward the center of the square and saw strange runes lighting up one after another.

The ritual is complete!

"Give them a reminder: You need to be level 30 before joining in the follow-up mission, otherwise you will definitely die if you stay here." Liu Ping said.

"Already prompted." Sequence said.

The next moment.

The professionals jumped up one after another and ran away like a gust of wind.

Their speed was so fast that they disappeared without a trace in just a few breaths.

Zhao Mingguang's voice came from far away:

"Sir, when we become stronger, we will come to see you again next time!"

Liu Ping shook his head.

The origins of these guys are mysterious, and the sequence is not revealed——

never mind.

What happens next is really not something they can participate in.

He looked into space.

Lines of burning small words quickly appeared there:

"History cannot be changed."

"In the long river of time, December 10, 37th year of the Ceylon calendar, was the moment of destruction of York City."

"At this moment, this historical event has been determined to have completely occurred."

"The only thing you can do is add new historical events to the historical events that destroyed York City."

"start!"

In the square, a strange voice sounded:

"Who is it? In the destroyed human city, he launched a meaningless challenge to us?"

The void moved.

I saw a strange man wearing a black windbreaker falling gently.

He held a skull in one hand and a carving knife in the other, as if he was carving something.

Liu Ping said: "I have a business to discuss with you."

"What business?" the man asked.

"This city has been destroyed by you anyway. Now, leave here and we will be in peace." Liu Ping said.

At his feet, the bound devils all cried out for help.

The strange man glanced at it and said calmly: "I was summoned after all. I won't be able to do anything without killing you."

Liu Ping said: "Are you sure you want to fight? I'm very tired now and don't want to cause trouble at all. Why don't I give you a fortune? What do you think?"

The strange man's expression changed, and he laughed and said: "Oh? What kind of wealth--"

Before he finished speaking, a huge shadow rushed up and knocked him into the sky.

Zhao Chanyi!

She transformed into a human form, pulled out a sharp sword from the void, and slashed continuously through the air.

——Vacuum cutting method!

Dense cutting sounds burst out from the monster man.

"Ahhhh! Bastard!"

The strange man let out a cry full of pain, and his figure suddenly became dark and huge.

He turned into a humanoid monster with a single horn, dodged continuously in the sky, and finally landed far away at the other end of the square.

"Damn knight, you are destined to pay the price for your recklessness!"

The monster said through gritted teeth, and suddenly saw soft rays of light lingering on the fine knife edges on his body.

These lights have the ability to heal, closing all wounds in an instant.

The monster was startled.

Attack me——

And then give me treatment——

It looked at the knight.

I saw the knight talking to the monster who turned into a woman.

"...the knife was too hasty..."

"The third tactic is a bit more powerful than the second tactic..."

"...When cutting, be careful not to leave any flaws. There were two flaws just now..."

The knight kept talking, and the woman beside him kept nodding, and occasionally asked a question or two.

What are they doing?

The devil was extremely surprised.

Just at this moment they finished speaking, the knight turned around, with a look of compassion and justice on his face, and said solemnly: "Devil, you have gone too far astray. It seems that today I have to let you know that your life actually has The other possibility is that it will be more positive, more productive, and healthier than your current life.”

The devil tilted his head.

——It turns out to be a psychopath.

But the kind of fighting just now has offended my dignity.

Kill you.

Settle things here quickly and then go back.

The devil thought silently in his heart, but saw a soft and holy light emerging from the knight's hands.

The knight said loudly:

"Come on, let's see whether justice defeats evil, or whether evil falls at the feet of justice."

opinionated!

The devil grinned and was about to pounce on him as soon as he moved.

At this moment, it suddenly noticed something.

At the feet of the knight, the dying devils seemed to have seen something terrible, and they all let out desperate roars and screams.
