Volume 3: The Land of Mist Chapter 57: March and Blockade
The bond that spans the Moon Realm stretches from the four Moon Realm territories belonging to the Void King all the way to Black Crow View. If William were standing at the highest point of the Moon Realm and seeing this scene, he would definitely think of the legend of the Rainbow Bridge in the real world.
Or a scarlet road filled with blood, smoke and flames; or ugly worms that are growing section by section, emitting a corrupt and foul smell; or an intricate and gorgeous fabric woven by countless spider-like moon monsters; or a golden road inlaid with precious gems that gradually appears under the feet of dazed dancers as they dance.
Moonbound Bond - A Moonbound phenomenon that occurs when Void Kings need to extend their power beyond their own domain.
In essence, these ties serve as tentacles through which the Void Kings project their supreme power on a large scale.
Generally speaking, when drastic changes are taking place inside the Moon Realm, these Void Kings who sit high on the eternal throne will dispatch their legions to various battlefields in the Moon Realm through the Moon Realm ties and begin their eternal game in which the outcome will never be determined.
A thousand years ago, when the destruction of the Seven Calamities caused many Moon Realm rifts to be opened up in the present world, ten Void Kings fought for control of those rifts. This was also the largest Moon Realm War ever recorded.
And today, for a certain reason, or because of a sentence, four Void Kings have opened up their bonds.
There is the "Bloodmark Warrior" with barbed chains wrapped around his body and blood constantly oozing out from the gaps in his armor; the "Shambling Demon" is swollen and festering all over, coughing as he drags his fat body forward; the "Web Weaver" sets traps as he walks on his slender limbs; and the "Blade Dancer" has countless deadly blades on his gorgeous clothes and changes his dancing posture all the way on the road.
The high-level Moon Realm monsters, which were rarely seen before, were now marching on these links in legions, and the leaders of each legion were heavyweight characters who had left a notorious reputation in history.
Massacre, Bloodthirster, Eclipse, Madame Swelling, Thousand Faces Dancer, Pride...
There are a total of eight demon generals leading the team... It is no exaggeration to say that if such a Moon Realm coalition army appeared in the world, they would be enough to wipe out the Riel Empire's overt military power.
Even in the heyday of the Judgment Seat a thousand years ago, a Moon Realm Legion of this size would be enough to put the End Watcher's army in a long and bitter battle.
When these four ties were close enough to their common destination, Black Crow Watch, they inevitably intertwined with each other in the space of the Moon Realm. As a result, the four legions also had a certain intersection with each other.
Under normal circumstances, although these four Void Kings did not have any irreconcilable hatred towards each other because of their own domains, the relationship between them was probably only slightly better than that between enemies.
It is really unthinkable that the four ties are intertwined as they are now without some large-scale conflict occurring.
But today, and only today, because these four legions all have the same goal, even the most violent demon generals under the Lord of Dead Blood are trying their best to restrain their anger during the march, trying not to increase the friction they create along the way.
Therefore, when they were marching to a position very close to Black Crow Watch, the number of Moon Realm monsters that died on the road due to friction between each other during the march actually accounted for less than 30% of the total number!
What's even more rare is that only the demon general "Pride" was chopped back to his own Moon Realm by the opponent's axe because he provoked "Massacre" too many times, waiting to be resurrected.
I'm afraid that such a harmonious relationship will only appear when the entire Moon Realm has a common enemy.
After all, they all received oral instructions from their supreme master today - to go to Black Crow Watch, destroy the Moon Realm that should not exist, and... kill the Moon Realm Disaster.
Of course, the last one is a bit difficult.
Even though that horrible Moon Realm Disaster was injured, and didn't bring his best equipment, and didn't have a large number of troops around him to protect him...
But with just eight of them... or to be correct, now they are seven... but with just seven demon generals, the hope of killing the other party is extremely slim.
Therefore, the main goal of their trip is to flatten the "Black Crow Watch" in the Moon Realm that had been hiding under the protection of the World Shell, and to eliminate the two members of the "Trial Seat" who were now found by the Moon Realm Disaster.
The rest of the work is left to the "thing" they bring.
At the center of each legion, there is a vehicle transporting a big guy.
Some were covered by blood-stained flags, while others were covered by a thick layer of moss... Each legion marched forward with such a secret weapon to kill the "Moon Disaster".
The time and space in the Moon Realm are chaotic. If a mortal were to march with these four legions, he would probably find it difficult to describe how far he has traveled or how much time has passed.
But finally, they were almost there.
The black crows looked at the raging sea with no end in sight, the storm that would never stop, and the faint lighthouse that symbolized hope, which finally appeared before their eyes.
But when these four devastated troops had reached the edge of Black Crow's Watch, their way forward was blocked.
To be precise, they were blocked by a gorgeous float.
If I had to describe it, this float is essentially a wheelchair with extravagant decorations. It is called a wheelchair because the person sitting in the wheelchair is so fat that a wheel is needed to carry it.
A fat man with saliva dripping from the corners of his mouth, a dull look in his eyes, and skin as gray as cement, sitting on the float, wearing a crown that was too small for his head.
It stared with its dull eyes at the mighty army coming over and the seven demon generals leading them.
There was no change in the expression on its face, it just mumbled something incomprehensible like "Yi Yi Ya Ya".
Serving it were several waiters dressed in well-fitting tuxedos, spotless white gloves, and exquisite bow ties around their necks.
They also ignored the four legions in front of them and continued doing their own things.
For example, like taking care of a mentally retarded child who cannot take care of himself, or wiping the saliva from the corners of the mouth of a fat man.
Although the other party's image looked very funny, no one dared to underestimate the guy in front of them.
Because just now, with just a raise of its hand, the Moon Realm bond that was constantly extending stopped by itself, as if time was frozen.
It and its servants stopped all four armies of Moon Realm monsters at the entrance that was just about to reach Black Crow's View.
"Slaughter", who was standing at the front of the team, saw the blocker who appeared here inexplicably, raised his axe and was about to "persuade" the other party to get out of the way in his own way. But the dancer who kept changing his face and looked neither male nor female raised his hand to stop him.
"Violence cannot solve all problems."
The dancer's voice sounds neither male nor female, but no matter what gender people hear, they will feel an irresistible attraction coming from the depths of their soul.
This is not just a simple temptation, but it seems like you have heard the words of the person you most want to hear.
The Thousand-Faced Dancer is a demon general under the Void King Red Desire, and is also the chief diplomat of his "Perfect Country" in the Moon Realm.
Although it has the weakest killing ability, it is the demon general that has caused one of the largest scale killings in the history of the entire Vic continent - only because it transformed into a sage and instigated instigation, which led to the outbreak of a war that swept across the entire continent at the end of the Golden Age.
"Massacre" glanced at it. The other party's voice just now sounded like Brand's roar to it, which made it hesitate for a moment.
Then, it decided to kill the guy in front of it first.
The speed was so fast that no one could see the trajectory of the axe.
With a loud "click", the serrated axe in Carnage's hand split the Thousand Faced Dancer into two halves.
"I've said it before, violence can't solve all problems."
Before Massacre could pull up the axe that had cracked the bond, the voice of the Thousand Faced Dancer came from behind again.
The dancer who was split in half in front of him instantly turned into a cracked mask, and the human soul attached to it disappeared with a scream.
Massacre turned around and saw the Thousand Faced Dancer appear behind him intact. It covered its face with one hand, and another human soul that was tortured and twisted appeared in its hand. It then screamed and turned into another mask, constantly changing.
The dancer didn't care whether Massacre would attack him with his axe again. Instead, he slowly walked to the float blocking the road, bowed slightly to the fat man who looked mentally retarded and wore a miniature crown, and said:
"So, what price does Lord Valk want us to pay before he is willing to let us go, Mr. Manic?"
"Or rather, Mr. Dementia."
