Chapter 264 The counterattack begins

According to calculations by survivors from the Old World.

If they wanted to complete that super-composite ritual, they would need to retake more than three times the current amount of land.

And they also need to find as many missing materials as possible in the recaptured area.

They did store a large amount of supplies in the memorial hall, but these supplies were basically food and basic utensils.

They were short of a lot of the precious materials needed for the summoning ritual.

Therefore, if they want to succeed, they must pray that they can find enough materials or clues in the recaptured areas, otherwise they will have to move towards deeper and more dangerous areas.

This is something that the Old Continent, which is already struggling financially, does not want to see.

At the same time, in order to ensure maximum success.

They chose to launch their counterattack late that night.

For demons, the word "rest" is very vague, because as representatives of chaotic creatures, some demons need to rest, some do not, and some have the opposite rest time as humans. In short, there are all kinds of demons.

Therefore, night raids are of little significance to the demons themselves.

The reason why the Old World knew this and still planned this was to catch the enemy by surprise.

They have been pulling back their lines and abandoning land these days.

In addition, the resistance here is fierce, so the demons rarely pay attention to and guard against this side.

In this situation, the demons who thought humans should be resting would be even more unprepared.

So when the Honor Army began to advance under the cover of night.

Almost none of the demons expected them to appear.
-
In a town that had just fallen.

A demon with a dog's head was wandering around the burned town, holding a human thigh in its mouth.

It doesn't need to rest, so it wants to come out and have some fun.

But there are no humans in this place anymore.

It can't even have fun.

It's not like they ate all the humans here.

There were quite a few humans here when they arrived.

What they found particularly interesting was that the humans here actually took the initiative to kill the human soldiers who came to escort them away.

When they flew over, all the humans sent up the bodies of the soldiers in an extremely flattering manner.

This even included their companions who died in the fight, as well as those who were not dead but were injured.

They seemed to feel that this would demonstrate their sincerity.

To be honest, the dog-headed demon didn't know where they heard this.

They are demons. Don’t humans know that demons are naturally opposed to them?

The dog-headed demon could never understand those humans' thoughts, but it knew what happened to them.

According to the orders of the new lord, most of these humans had their legs bitten off and were sent to the lord.

What it is holding in its mouth now is the last leg it has left.

Before that guy had his leg bitten off, he remembered that he kept pushing the human girl who smelled very similar to him towards him.

Well, according to humans, that should be his daughter.

It's really strange, does he think this will make him run away?
The dog-headed demon couldn't help but shook his head, then chewed the last leg into pieces and swallowed it into his stomach.

Touching its completely empty stomach, it crawled on the ground and came to a pile of embers.

This is where the humans piled up the bodies of the soldiers.

The corpse had long been eaten by demons.

Now all that's left are dozens of spears stuck in the ground.

The heads of the soldiers were hung on it.

The demons thought this was so interesting that they didn't take it down and eat it.

It had thought so before, but now it thought it would be better to have a snack. It quickly picked out the head it wanted.

It was a head with endless anger on its face, and the most interesting thing was not the vivid anger on his face, but the deep sadness in his eyes.

Every time he saw the sadness hidden in his eyes, the dog-headed demon felt unable to stop.

This means that he experienced very severe emotional fluctuations during his lifetime.

This is as addictive as a drug to the devil.

What a pity, this time, I have to eat up this beautiful view.

Before eating the other's head, it decided to admire it for a while.

With the faint light from the surrounding houses, it could still clearly see the anger on that face.

But as his eyes moved upwards, the demon was stunned because his eyes were closed.

This made the devil feel extremely strange.

How come you closed your eyes?
It subconsciously looked around, trying to see if there were other demons here.

But no, it didn't see any other demons.

No, that's not right.

I haven't seen any other demons!

not good!

A sense of crisis arose instantly, but it was too late. The dog-headed demon turned around and saw that his upper and lower body were separated.

The dog-headed demon was not dead yet after its upper body fell to the ground, and its lower body was still kicking continuously.

It struggled to prop up its body on its paws.

But the claws are the ones that touch the ground and are directly petrified and shattered.

Extraordinary?
Without waiting it continues to think.

It saw several human extraordinary beings walking out of the ruins around them, and then more and more soldiers came from afar under the moonlight.

"Humanity strikes back?!"

A huge sense of absurdity swept over the demon's body.

It really couldn't believe that humans, who were retreating again and again yesterday, had the courage to counterattack today.

The human transcendent who had knocked it down walked up to it with anger in his eyes and pointed at the heads and asked:
"You have already killed them, so why do you want to humiliate our companions like this?"

This question made the devil stunned for a moment, and then he said with great grievance:
"That was done by you humans!"

These words almost made everything fall into a dead silence.

The powerful transcendent who was most likely at Sequence Five was in great shock.

His gaze kept moving between the heads of the demon and his companions.

Finally, he couldn't help but stagger back a few steps.

Although he managed to hold on and not fall down, he did it before the dog-headed demon could be killed.

The dog-headed demon was very sure that he and they seemed to have lost all their fighting spirit.
-
The Old World's counterattack was quite swift, and the demons had never anticipated that humans would counterattack.

So they were defeated almost across the board.

It was not until dawn that the high-sequence demon lords and even the demon lord reacted and joined the battlefield, which brought the war into a temporary stalemate.

However, up to this point, the demons were only trying to maintain their own situation, and they had no interest in fighting these rebellious humans.

There are still many, many humans in other places waiting to be harvested!
But soon, the war reached a stalemate of less than an hour.

All the demons knew why humans wanted to counterattack.

Some of the survivors from the Old World who were hiding under the protection of the Honor Army and the warriors still chose to betray.

They told the demons everything they knew in order to pray for their forgiveness and reward!
So, the demons are also boiling!
In other words, the high-sequence demons have completely gone berserk!
Constantine is a taboo to the Abyss, and even more so to the high-sequence demons.

What's more, what about recalling it?
　I went out with my family, so I used yesterday's draft. Well, that's it for now. I'll be back to update normally tomorrow.
