Chapter 215 Rescue
"Besides, there seem to be a few acquaintances there."
"Acquaintances?" Meng Li stuffed a hot rice ball into his mouth and said vaguely, "Is it Washboard and the others?"
"How did you know?" Now it was Luo Qiu's turn to be surprised.
"Guessed." Meng Li shrugged his nose and said proudly, "The only human adventurers who can go so far into this place in the imperial capital are Washiboard and her friends."
"You guessed right." Luo Qiu gave her a thumbs up.
"How are they now? Are they in danger?"
"It was fine just now, but now it's a bit bad. Let's go and take a look." Luo Qiu stood up and said.
"Why did so many demons suddenly appear? What is behind that cave?" Aiqier looked at the demons that had surrounded them, with a hint of fatigue in her eyes.
Ever since Sigri and Rosa lost contact in the cave, she and Lauren hurried here, but they didn't expect that this ancient cave had turned into a "devil's cave". Even though she had the purifying power of an angel, she could hardly resist the huge number of demons by herself.
After reuniting with Sigri and Rosa, Lauren sent a message magic to the Adventurer's Guild in the Imperial Capital, asking the guild to send people to eliminate some of the fish that had escaped the net. They planned to completely eliminate the root cause of the cave, so they went all the way deep into the deepest part of the cave. Unexpectedly, what was waiting for them here was something even more despairing.
There are twenty low-level demons and five mid-level demons.
A terrifying aura filled the entire cave, and the exit had been blocked by a mid-level demon and five low-level demons. The Valkyrie now had no way out.
"The Holy Sword is coming!"
A shining holy sword fell from the sky, illuminating the dark cave as if it were daytime. The demons felt the power of light from the holy sword, and they covered their eyes and took a few steps back.
The Valkyries had once exhausted themselves in the fight against a mid-level demon, and this time they were facing a real dead end.
But even so, 'Valkyrie' shows no signs of giving up.
"It works." Aiqier's face lit up when she saw the effect of the magic, and she shouted, "Sigri, use this!"
"The holy sword is coming!" There was no need for Aiqier to remind her. When she saw the state of the demons, Sigri immediately summoned out a similar shining holy sword.
Although the two holy swords frightened the demons for a while, due to their desire for souls, the demons overcame their fear of the holy swords and pounced on the Valkyrie.
"Looking for death!" Aiqier commanded the holy sword to pierce the body of the nearest lower-level demon.
This was an ogre. After its body was pierced by the holy sword, a layer of milky white flame ignited on its corpse, completely burning the demon's body.
Unfortunately, the magic power of the holy sword was completely consumed after destroying the two lower-level demons. If you want to use it again, you must release a new round of magic.
The same thing happened to Sigri. After killing two lower-level demons, the holy sword also disappeared.
"Let's use up close combat. We can't keep wasting our magic power like this." Aiqier and Sigli had already used up most of their magic power. They had to save some power to release healing magic in case of any emergency.
"Sigri, come to the middle and recover your magic power as soon as possible. We will buy you some time." Lauren, Rosa, and Aiqier surrounded Sigri in the middle. They began to face the terrifying demons.
Fortunately, only low-level demons came over. The intermediate-level demons emitting powerful magic were guarding the entrance of the cave, with no intention of moving, which allowed the Valkyrie to hold on for a while.
Lauren wielded the magic spear 'Caesar's Afterglow', exerting all her strength. Her fighting spirit burst out like a mountain torrent, and as the spear's light surged, it pierced through the bodies of three demons in succession, appearing extremely domineering.
But at the same time as he killed three demons, two more demons pounced on him. Loren had just released a burst of energy and was unable to make the same attack again. He could only retract his magic spear and fight the demons with spearmanship.
Rosa encountered a huge goat-horned demon. The body of this lower-level goat-horned demon was almost three times the size of Rosa. It held a huge steel knife in its hand and slashed down. Facing the whistling knife light, Rosa crossed the two daggers above her head and blocked the knife.
The goat-horned demon did not expect that the skinny human could actually block his attack. Two puffs of gas spurted out of his nostrils. When he raised his steel knife and was about to cut the human in half, he was surprised to find that the human who was just in front of him had disappeared.
The goat-horned demon looked around and finally found traces of humans, but how did this human become six?
This sudden situation made the goat-horned demon hesitate for a moment, as it didn't know which Rosa to attack.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the six 'Rosas' attacked at the same time. The cold daggers kept slashing across the body of the goat-horned demon, starting from the eyes and then to various parts of the body. In the blink of an eye, the cold daggers made hundreds of scratches on the body of the goat-horned demon.
"Waaaaaaaaaa" the goat-horned demon howled in pain, blood gushing out of his body. The huge steel knife had been thrown away somewhere long ago.
A demon actually died from excessive bleeding.
Although the strength of the goat-horned demon was comparable to Rosa's, there was a huge gap in skills, which was why Rosa was able to kill it so easily.
But the two demons coming now are not so easy to deal with, the ghost-eyed demon and the red-eyed demon.
"No, we will all die here if we go on like this. Damn it, why are there so many demons in this crappy place?" After Aiqier used her lightsaber to force back the two demons in front of her, she was a little out of breath.
The power of angels can restrain demons, and the power of demons can also restrain angels. In this place full of demon power, her power was suppressed by nearly 30%, and coupled with the excessive consumption of magic power, she was already a little overwhelmed.
While the Valkyrie was fighting hard with the demons, the demons blocking the exit suddenly flew up, hit the top wall of the cave heavily, and then fell down with a bang! bang! bang!
"Washboard, don't die here, or you won't be able to fulfill the bet." A somewhat annoying voice entered Aiqi'er's ears. She was stunned for a moment, and then when she saw two figures appearing at the entrance of the cave, she screamed in surprise: "Why are you here?"
"We are adventurers as well. We came here to take a look after receiving the commission from the guild. We didn't expect that we arrived just in time." Luo Qiu glanced at the members of 'Valkyrie'. They all seemed to be exhausted, but basically not seriously injured.
"Luo Qiu, be careful!"
"Be careful, behind."
Loren and Rosa were both terrified. The intermediate demon that crawled up from the ground behind Luo Qiu stretched out its sharp claws towards his head.
Luo Qiu didn't even turn his head. He condensed a ball of fire in his palm and threw it gently behind him. The moment the fire touched the demon, its whole body was burned to ashes. This intermediate demon didn't even have time to scream.
