My Beast Is the 12-Winged Angel - Chapter 42

42: Chapter 42: The Demon King of Extraordinary Tier Two!

42: Chapter 42: The Demon King of Extraordinary Tier Two!

Holy City.

Dark clouds pressed heavily against the city, Demonic Qi surging boundlessly.

On the towering stone wall, the Cat Race Clan Leader Rone’s claws dug deeply into the crevices, his brown pupils narrowing into a thin line.

The numbers of the Demon Race were too great, like a tide continuously surging toward the Holy City.

Were it not for the barrier left by the Elf Race, the Holy City would have been crushed by now.

“Report, Clan Leader,”
an Orc from the Cat Race reported gravely, “The barrier has already developed cracks, it can hold for at most another half hour.”
“Moreover, the city walls guarded by other races are not faring well!”
Upon hearing this string of bad news, Rone sighed deeply.

“According to prophecy, the descendant of the Elf Race entered the Secret Realm during this time!

For this reason, he risked everything half a month ago to send his daughter away, hoping for this slight chance.”
“But now it seems…

an accident may have occurred after all.”
Just then.

“Boom-!”
The entire Holy City suddenly trembled violently.

“Damn, it’s the Demon King!”
The rolling dark clouds were suddenly torn open by some terrifying force, as a tall human figure with skeletal wings slowly descended.

His dark purple skin flowed with magma-like patterns, his curved horns on the head shimmering with a metallic luster amidst lightning.

Just hovering in mid-air made the knees of the soldiers on the city walls go weak.

Seeing this Demon King, Rone’s expression became exceedingly grim.

Were it not for this Demon King, relying on the barrier would definitely enable them to hold on.

But now…

Though he was also at the Extraordinary Level, compared to a Demon King, the disparity was too vast.

Demon King Carlos hovered in mid-air, his skeletal wings slowly spreading, shadows blanket half the Holy City like a curtain.

He did not rush to strike but looked down at the Orcs on the city walls, seemingly appreciating the last struggles of his prey.

To find this Secret Realm, the Demon Race went to great lengths!

But as long as they assimilated the Elf Queen’s daughter, the Demon Race would at least gain one Demon King Level force.

Even…

There was a great possibility it might be Demon God Level power!

“Ants of the Beastman Race,” Demon King Carlos’s voice scraped like a dull knife on bone, “Tell me the location of the Elf Princess.”
“Never!

The Beastman Race would rather die in battle than bow to the Demon Race!”
Carlos’s mouth twisted into an inhuman smile.

“Interesting.”
He lifted his right hand, fingers clenched in the air-
“Boom-!!!”
The entire sky suddenly darkened, black clouds churned, transforming into a gigantic Demon King’s Claw, slamming down onto the Holy City!

“Maintain the barrier with all your might!” Rone roared.

The Beastman warriors bit their fingertips one after another, smearing blood onto ancient runes.

The barrier’s glow intensified, barely propped up as a faint golden shield.

However-
“Crack!”
The Demonic Claw merely gripped, and the barrier shattered with countless cracks like fragile Liu Li!

Next came another strike!

“Boom!”
The entire barrier shattered like shards of glass!

“Not good!” Rone’s pupils constricted abruptly.

With the barrier shattered, he had to immediately confront that Demon King.

Yet-
“Too slow.”
A cold voice whispered by his ear, and Rone had no time to react as a hand covered in dark purple scales already clamped around his throat!

“Clan Leader!!”
The Orcs on the walls stared with wide windows, but none dared to step forward.

He exerted strength and swung-
“Boom!”
Rone’s body was slammed into the walls like a cannonball, rocks shattered, dust rose!

“Clan Leader-!!”
Among the Beastmen’s shouts, Carlos calmly descended to the highest point of the city walls, closing his skeletal wings, and Demon Might surged overwhelmingly!

“Last chance, tell me the location of the Elf Princess!”
No one replied!

Irritation flickered in Carlos’s eyes as he slowly raised his hand, a dark purple Energy Ball forming in his palm.

Black lightning crackled along its surface, exuding a suffocating pressure.

“Foolish, all shall be buried with it.”
An extremely terrifying wave transmitted from above the Holy City.

However, in this critical moment.

A crimson meteor rapidly approached.

Sensing the momentum, the Demon King slowly frowned, abandoning the Energy Ball in his hand and turning to evade.

This figure was Liu Li.

When Gu Xing and others arrived, they just witnessed the Demon King’s invasion of the city.

So, without hesitation, Gu Xing commanded Liu Li to activate the Blazing Angel Form and engage.

Charging from outside into the city, the path cleared by Liu Li allowed several of them to successfully return inside.

At this moment.

Gu Xing looked up at the Demon King in the sky.

[Carlos]
[Talent: Demon King]
[Level: Extraordinary Tier Two]
[Power: 821]
[Constitution: 834]
[Spirit: 812]
[Speed: 842]
[Talent: Magic Control]
[Skills: Demon King’s Claw…]
Examining Carlos’s Attributes, Gu Xing’s expression became serious.

There’s no denying this guy was the most formidable opponent since he contracted Liu Li.

Despite being at Extraordinary Tier Two, the Attributes were nearing a thousand.

If not for Liu Li enhancing the Attributes ahead through the Demon Race, against this figure now.

There definitely would be no chance of victory!

But now…

[Divine Angel (Liu Li)]
[Talent: Legendary Three Stars]
[Level: Awakened Tier Nine]
[Power: 423†’846]
[Constitution: 428†’856]
[Spirit: 421†’842]
[Speed: 430†’860]
[Skills: Judgment, Divine Protection, Blazing Angel Form, Song of the End]
Through Blazing Angel Form, Liu Li’s Attributes barely reached parity with the Demon King.

However, at this level of Attributes.

A mere difference of dozens in Attributes could not determine the outcome of the battle.

More importantly…

The talent of this Demon King was what Gu Xing worried about the most.

This sudden turn stunned the Beastmen present, followed by a burst of cheers.

“The ancestor is above…

the prophecy really came true…”
“It’s Prophet sir, we’re saved!”
Amidst the ruins, supported by Sally, Rone looked at Liu Li opposing the Demon King in the sky, murmuring:
“The Holy City is saved!

The legacy of the Elf Race won’t fall into the hands of the Demons!”
After realizing the opponent, Carlos’s brow slightly furrowed.

Angel Race?!

Why would such a high-level race appear here?!

His gaze fell on Gu Xing.

Actually a human Guardian Beast!

Yet…

Does an Awakening Stage Angel intend to obstruct him?

Ridiculously!

Carlos’s mouth twisted into a sinister curve, and his bone-white wings suddenly spread wide, stirring a putrid wind.

His claws, wrapped in black scales, attacked Liu Li at an astonishing speed, fingertips entwined with suffocating Demonic Qi.

Liu Li deftly sidestepped, yet strands of her hair were sheared off by the sharp claw wind.

Her snowy wings already bore several scorched scars, evidently easing crossing was not simple.

Gu Xing’s pupils contracted slightly, recognizing the gap between Liu Li and this Demon King.

Though Liu Li had the lead on the attribute panel, the Demonic Qi support granted by the Demon King’s talent allowed Carlos an edge on the battlefield!

Realizing this situation, Gu Xing didn’t hesitate anymore.

They couldn’t delay any longer!

“Activate Critical Status!”
