Chapter 393: Chapter 407 Too Loud

Lancelot began to silently gather his energy, channeling the True Yuan to his lungs. The Lion’s Roar Skill that he had used during the fight with Zoel, the Matriarch, seemed appropriate for this occasion as well, as long as he didn’t roar at people directly.

“Cang Ye has already teamed up with demons from Barto Hell!”

The sound like thunder exploded in the room, leaving everyone momentarily deprived of their ability to speak. True Yuan is converted from nature’s spiritual energy, and although Lancelot’s Dantian was mostly depleted, he still used a considerable amount of True Yuan for that shout, which added a hint of power to rival the heavens and earth to his voice.

“The current General of the Demon Legion, Ulgog, is actually a noble of Bartez!” Taking advantage of the fact that the audience had recovered from the shock but had not yet had the chance to speak again, Lancelot hurriedly continued, “With the help of Ulgog, the Mother of Demons has organized an army larger than any before!”

“What?”

“This is impossible!”

...

“Ulgog is a Bartez?! (Abyssal language)”

The sudden coarse guttural voice startled everyone, and Lancelot turned to see that the metal doors on either side of the room had been opened at some point. A few Succubuses and Berserk Demons stood at the door, staring blankly at the crowded group of people in the room.

Lancelot then realized that his shout might have been a bit too loud.

“Human, are these demons good people too?”

A tall Radiant Cloud Angel spoke up, and everyone turned to the Human Knight at once.

“No,” Lancelot shook his head and in a flash, drew his Frostslash, “They are the minions of the Mother of Demons.”

The crowd below erupted into an uproar; although the Human Knight himself did not understand what three fully-manned Demon Legions entailed, the audience’s reaction clearly indicated that the situation was anything but optimistic.

“But why didn’t Ulgog go with them? Why did he stay here?” another Radiant Cloud Angel asked.

“Pay attention to the Magic Formation beneath your feet. That’s the most important task Cang Ye has assigned to the Demon.”

Lancelot pointed to the center of the room, whereupon those standing there dispersed with a whoosh, revealing complex lines and Runes etched into the floor.

“That’s an evil spell from the Nine Hells, capable of extracting energy from the pain of virtuous souls,” the old Elf explained immediately. “And a Succubus Paladin is an extremely rare sacrifice that contains tremendous energy. Cang Ye just instructed Ulgog to sacrifice the Succubus during her battle with His Highness, the King Consort, to gain additional strength.”

“And you’ve already disrupted that plan, a very good development,” another Radiant Cloud Angel nodded. “With His Highness, the King Consort present, they can’t expect an easy victory. But the demons still have an overwhelming advantage in numbers. We must return at once. The Protectors of Androlina need support.”

“Is there anyone among you who can perform that powerful Teleportation Magic to send us all back at once?” Bruto, who had not spoken until now, suddenly interjected, and that was also the question Lancelot wanted to ask.

All eyes suddenly turned to the old Elf, the Great Elder known as Quirion Landale.

“To send so many of us back together, we would need to use the Ninth Circle’s magic ‘Portal to Another World’. But that requires a perfect Diamond worth 5000 gold as a casting material...”

Lancelot immediately pulled out a pigeon egg-sized sparkling Diamond from his pocket.

“...And the spell must be memorized in advance,” the old Elf said, looking at the gemstone in Lancelot’s hand, swallowing hard. “I’m sorry, but I don’t even have my Spellbook right now, let alone the ability to cast such magic.”
