Miles and Becky opened fire together!
A total of fifty-seven floaters, spewing out dazzling... lightning!
"Wait, wait, wait—one second!!"
The sudden turn of events stunned Sonia.
Why were Miles and Becky firing at their own people?
Why were their floaters firing lightning?
Aren't Hellfire Floaters supposed to spit fire?!
Sonia's questions were quickly answered.
Miles and Becky had secretly modified their weapons.
They had betrayed Dr. Faust and, at some point, had colluded with the demons, becoming traitors!
Demons, naturally immune to fire damage, are vulnerable to electricity.
Demons, on the other hand, possess the opposite resistance: they fear fire but not electricity.
Miles and Becky secretly modified their weapons to more efficiently slaughter their companions.
Their plan was nearly perfect.
Pilots fell one after another in a flash of lightning.
Ten charred bodies lay quietly in the test field.
"Why are you still alive?"
Miles turned his head, staring at the corner.
Sonia crouched in the corner, a naive look on her face.
Her ancestral spirits were ecstatic!
This was the first time the captain had approached her. Could he have... some kind of interest in her?
What the hell!!
Sonia cursed inwardly as she tumbled and scrambled, narrowly avoiding the lightning bolt fired by the floater cannon.
"Sorry, she was hiding in the corner, and I overlooked her," Becky said to Miles.
Sonia hesitated.
It was Becky who had told her to stay away, and that's why she survived.
Could it be that Becky did this to her...?
Sonia had a daring idea.
"Take care of her quickly, and make sure all the Hell Angels are destroyed!" Miles said impatiently.
Becky nodded, turned to face Sonia, and all twenty-seven floating cannons were aimed at her.
Just as she was about to fire, Sonia suddenly slammed her palm onto the pre-drawn summoning circle and shouted:
"Come out, my love!"
A tall, muscular figure rose from the teleportation circle.
With his gleaming metallic body, he shielded Sonia behind him.
Lightning bolts struck him, then refracted away.
"The devil's secret weapon, is this all it's got?"
Alan touched the slight burn mark on his chest, a look of disdain on his face.
"Iron Bones" also reduces damage against magical attacks.
Ten of Becky's floaters struck him directly, but the damage wasn't as great as expected.
"Becky...she only used 50% of her strength just now!" Sonia warned anxiously.
Alan's expression changed slightly, and he whispered, "So, that witch doesn't seem to really want to kill you..."
"Shh..." Sonia quickly stopped him.
Bang!
The gate to the testing ground suddenly exploded, and a group of hideous-looking individuals rushed in.
One of them looked like a hunched-over deformed child, with a large, hump-like tumor on his back.
The blood vessels on the tumor's surface were bulging, as if they could burst with blood at any moment.
"Brother Allen! Go block the door!" Sonia urged urgently. "I'll take care of those suicide demons, Becky and Miles!"
Alan nodded and strode towards the corridor entrance.
At the end of the metal corridor, the door had been blown down.
A swarm of demons swarmed into the corridor.
The suicide demons had webbed hands and feet, secreting mucus that clung to the smooth metal walls and even the ceiling, crawling forward at a rapid speed.
From floor to ceiling, demonic figures were everywhere.
Alan was guarding this corridor alone, feeling the pressure.
The most urgent task was to prevent the suicide demons from getting within 10 meters.
Otherwise, Allen himself would be in the range of their self-destruction.
Each suicide demon was like a human bomb. Even with a "steel body" to protect them, they couldn't withstand the collective self-destruction of so many demons!
He poured 10 points of magic power into his right hand, thrusting his palm outward.
Shaping Thunderous Explosion Wave!
A violent blast of air swept along the corridor.
Every demon within twenty meters of the other side was instantly killed!
They didn't even have a chance to self-destruct before being crushed to pieces!
However, the corridor, just cleared, was immediately filled with the following demons.
Alan frowned secretly.
If he continued fighting like this, the magic power consumption would be too severe; he wouldn't be able to hold out for much longer.
In the testing ground, Sonia was struggling to hold out against the siege of Miles and Becky.
If he couldn't hold this place, and let the demons in and join the siege... Sonia would die!
Instantly, Alan changed his strategy.
The venom glands in his body secreted toxins, pressing them into the bone spurs in his left hand.
Using the venom as a raw material, he sprayed poison gas into the corridor! A highly concentrated solution of mandrake alkaloids was sprayed across the area, creating a bitter haze in the air.
The demons entered the area covered by the poisonous fog, but did not fall into anesthesia as Allen had hoped.
They remained conscious and had not forgotten their mission.
Allen had no choice but to fire another thunderous blast.
While destroying the horde of demons, he also dispersed the previously sprayed poisonous fog.
This was a bit of a problem!
The demon race seemed to have an innate resistance to toxins.
The mandrake alkaloid solution was only a level 2 toxin.
Test results showed that it could not penetrate the demons' poison resistance.
So, what if he switched to a more potent toxin?
In a flash, the poison glands in his body began to work at high speed.
Allen raised his hand again and cast a spell, and poisonous gas gushed out!
This time, a faint golden dust erupted from his palm.
Countless tiny pollen particles spread throughout the corridor.
The suicide demons, after inhaling the Hanged Man pollen, stared blankly, sinking into a deep hallucination.
They inexplicably believed that the figures moving around them were all enemies!
The demons began to slaughter each other in the corridor.
The seriously injured ones screamed and exploded.
The seriously injured demons exploded in a chain reaction!
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
From the corridor to the gate, the roar of explosions continued.
Alan breathed a sigh of relief, his lips curled up slightly.
The mutated Hanged Man pollen was indeed powerful!
The battle in the corridor had turned from critical to safe.
Meanwhile, Sonia was in dire straits. Fighting Miles and Becky alone, Sonia had to admit she hadn't considered it well enough.
The most embarrassing thing was that her Hellfire Floater could only spray fire.
Miles and Becky, though they had betrayed the Devil faction, were still Devil-like beings after all.
Innately immune to fire damage!
Meanwhile, the two traitors' floaters... unleashed a lightning storm!
Sonia had no resistance to electric shock, and the shock quickly numbed her whole body, causing her to collapse to the ground.
"How can we possibly win this battle?!"
Sonia lamented inwardly, frustrated.
Miles, standing a full two and a half meters tall, strode towards them.
The five-foot-long whiskers beneath his jaw swayed and twisted with his steps.
The purple tentacles had the texture of an octopus's arms.
The tentacles ended in hard, sharp chitinous barbs. Miles stopped and looked down at Sonia with a cold expression.
His mandibular tentacles drooped, entwining Sonia from the ground and forcibly dragging her up.
Sonia was hooked by Miles like a fish, her body suspended in the air.
A barrage of punches and kicks followed.
A literal "beating"!
Punches and kicks rained down on her like raindrops, ping-pong.
The brutal Miles treated her like a punching bag.
Even the sturdy "Hell Angel" gradually gave way.
Cracks appeared on the armored surface from Miles's iron fists!
"Miles! Shameless traitor, you shall not die a good death!"
Sonia was beaten to the point of vomiting blood, but that didn't stop her from cursing.
Meanwhile, Sonia's fused ancestral spirit was still comforting itself.
"Ah ... Like a crescent-shaped scimitar thrust upward!
Bang!
Sonia kicked Miles away.
She seized the opportunity to break free from the tentacles.
She performed a beautiful backflip and landed gracefully.
But her coolness lasted only three seconds.
Even before she could regain her footing, Miles's cannon opened fire fiercely at her!
Sonia immediately ran for her life!
Lightning bolts followed one another, crackling!
Continuously falling behind her, shattering the floor.
Groundwork mixed with plasma, splattering wildly.
Sonia felt a burning pain on her back and struggled to escape.
A sudden gust of cold wind blew overhead!
Sonia hurriedly looked up.
Becky spread a pair of black wings covered in spikes, hovering above her.
Twenty-seven floaters circled the Black Witch.
The muzzles flashed with lightning, gathering energy for the next round of fire.
"Silly girl, you didn't have to die," Becky sighed. "But you're too foolish."
As soon as she finished speaking, the twenty-seven floaters opened fire simultaneously.
A lightning storm engulfed Sonia.
At the critical moment, Sonia's ancestral spirit finally gave up its illusions.
In a state of self-destruction, it dissipated its own will.
It completely entrusted this body and its future destiny to Sonia, no longer interfering with her decisions.
"Damn it! Wouldn't you have done this earlier?!"
Sonia cursed, while exerting all her magic power to support the mecha's defense.
The high-voltage shock exceeded the Hell Angel's defenses.
The faintly glowing black membrane on Sonia's body began to crack under the frenzied whipping of the arc.
It was over!
Sonia's heart sank!
The Hell Angel had been severely damaged and was irreversibly disintegrating.
Once its armor was removed, this fragile body would instantly be reduced to ashes under the concentrated fire of the floating cannons!
Crackling...
The armor shattered, peeling off piece by piece.
The half-blood witch's snow-white body was exposed, like an undefended city.
However, at that moment, a dormant seed of infinite potential seemed to form within Sonia's mind...
It exploded!
She was in dire straits, her life hanging by a thread.
A mysterious power awakened deep within Sonia's soul!
It was the supreme will of Baator, casting a profound glance upon this land of strife.
Sonia, stand up!
