Chapter 308, Nine Hell Demons Become Twenty-Seven Hell Demons?

Translator: Silavin

 

When the burly man’s axe struck the Eternal Guardian, it merely caused ripples to spread. Far from being shattered, there was not even a crack!

 

Instead, the Attack Power of his Skill was reflected back, sending him flying!

 

The burly man flew back hundreds of metres before finally stopping, his giant axe trembling. The rebounding force had clearly affected him badly.

 

“This… how is this possible!?” The burly man stared, wide eyed. He was barely able to believe what just happened.

 

After all, how could a Second Profession Player block his full-power strike? How could they have such an overpowered Skill!?

 

Not just the burly man, but the other Five National Guardians were also stunned.

 

However, this small incident did not cause them to panic.

 

After all, even if Lu Fan’s group had such a powerful Defensive Skill, they were just turtles with hard shells.

 

The burly man was furious with embarrassment. Seeing the others react with mocking looks, he irritably chided, “Don’t just stand there and watch! Attack together!”

 

“Hehe!” The drunkard gave a cold laugh and extended his hand. The sword on his back seemed to have a mind of its own as it flew into his hand.

 

This sword was extraordinary; its blade gleamed with white light. It was even a rare Light Sword.

 

Light Swords not only had low drop rates but also required special Hidden Professions to use, so few had seen them. It was clear the Wandering Sword Saint Profession utilises Light Swords.

 

The drunkard stood up from his mechanical bird, with the glow from the sword in his hand getting more intense!

 

He slashed repeatedly with his Light Sword, each strike sending purple sword light flying through the air toward Lu Fan’s group.

 

The old woman did not stay idle either, drawing her bow and shooting arrows wrapped in Wind Elemental, which each carried considerable power.

 

At the same time, the silent black-robed man also acted. He waved his staff to gather dark clouds above Lu Fan’s group, sending down bolt after bolt of lightning.

 

The three attacked together, their powerful Skills continuously striking Eternal Guardian.

 

Inside Eternal Guardian, Jian Ying and the others watched on nervously, afraid the outside attacks might shatter the protective barrier.

 

Only Lu Fan remained calm. He had complete confidence in Xiao Cui’s Skill, knowing that even though the other party was powerful Fourth Profession Players, they absolutely would not be able to break through this Defense Skill further Enhanced by Xiao Cui’s Buffs.

 

“Jian Ying, take care of Auntie and the others.” Lu Fan said without looking back as he walked toward the outside, ignoring the chaotic bombardment.

 

Hearing this, Jian Ying frowned. “Lu Fan, what are you going to do?”

 

“I’m going to personally kill them!” As Lu Fan spoke, golden light began appearing around him.

 

This golden light was not radiating from the surface of his skin, but rather seeping out from within, beneath his skin. It was as though Lu Fan’s blood had turned completely golden, possessing some special power.

 

At the same time, Lu Fan’s body began expanding, scales growing from his skin, his form transforming toward that of a Giant Dragon.

 

This was the Golden Dragon King Bloodline Release!

 

For Jin Zaixi and his group, Lu Fan felt that personally tearing them apart would be more satisfying.

 

However, Lu Fan knew that they were Extremistis Country’s top Players. In other words, they were among the strongest, even amongst Fourth Profession Players. Even with Golden Dragon King Bloodline Release, Lu Fan could not face all five of them head-on.

 

So, calling for help was necessary.

 

A Summoning Array lit up beside Lu Fan, and one of the Fallen Corpse Holy Dragon Kings emerged, opening his Puppet Sub-Space outside of Eternal Guardian.

 

Following this, Monster after Monster walked out.

 

Not many in number, just nine.

 

But these nine were old friends of the Five National Guardians. Naturally, they were the Nine Hell Demons!

 

The appearance of the Nine Hell Demons greatly shocked the Five National Guardians. The three who had been attacking the Eternal Guardian all stopped. They now faced the Nine Hell Demons with great wariness.

 

“What… what’s going on!?” The drunkard instantly sobered up. Gripping his light-sword, he questioned, “How can this brat summon the Nine Hell Demons!?”

 

They had fought the Nine Hell Demons before and knew of their terrifying power. Though they had indeed killed the Nine Hell Demons back then, that was only because the Hell Demons were scattered, and they could hunt them down one by one. That was how they had finally subdued the Nine Hell Demons.

 

But now, all the Nine Hell Demons were here together. So, that advantage was completely lost!

 

The pressure on the Five National Guardians was immense. Even Jin Zaixi was shocked.

 

He knew Lu Fan had enslaved a Demon General, and had guessed Lu Fan might have enslaved the Diabolical Hell Demon. But he never imagined Lu Fan had all Nine Hell Demons!

 

Even he felt tremendous pressure from the Nine Hell Demons that had just appeared – let alone his other four teammates.

 

This sudden development stripped away the Five National Guardians’ earlier composure.

 

However, the burly man was the first to react, coldly snorting. “All show and no substance! I don’t believe a Second Profession Player can really enslave the Nine Hell Demons! They must be imitations! Watch me split them all in half with one axe strike!”

 

With that, he raised his axe and charged forward.

 

His movement drew the attention of the Diabolical Hell Demon.

 

The Diabolical Hell Demon’s form dimmed as it activated its Ghost Walk Skill.

 

Then, it teleported in front of the burly man, bringing its fingers made of blades down from above.

 

The burly man’s pupils contracted as he raised his giant axe to clash head-on with the Diabolical Hell Demon.

 

*Boom!* It was a thunderous crash. The Diabolical Hell Demon did not move a centimetre, while the burly man was forced back several steps.

 

The burly man was shocked, exclaiming. “Something’s wrong! How can these Nine Hell Demons be as powerful as the originals?!”

 

“How is this possible!?” The others were also greatly alarmed, sensing something was amiss.

 

They could handle one or two Nine Hell Demons, but how could they fight all nine at once?!

 

Jin Zaixi’s voice grew heavy as he slowly said. “No wonder you could show such power in the National Trial Secret Realm. You truly have some ability.”

 

“Even so, everyone, we need not fear him. Even if he summons all Nine Hell Demons, we need not be afraid. We’ve killed them before, and now that they’ve appeared again, we just need to kill them again. While the Nine Hell Demons are fearsome, many years have passed. Are we not much stronger than before? Even if the Nine Hell Demons join forces, what is there to fear?!”

 

Jin Zaixi’s words gave the Five National Guardians some of their confidence back.

 

After all, Jin Zaixi was just stating facts. These were Monsters they had killed before. What could nine of them combined do? They themselves had truly grown stronger over the years. If these enemies got resurrected, they would just need to kill them again!!

 

However, was it really that simple?

 

As an emerald green light shone from within the Eternal Guardian, it illuminated the Nine Hell Demons.

 

Moments later, beside each Nine Hell Demon appeared two Mirror Image Projections identical to the original, so lifelike that real and fake could not be distinguished.

 

The Nine Hell Demons had instantly become Twenty-Seven Hell Demons!

 

This sight made the Five National Guardians’ eyes nearly pop out of their heads.
