Endless Horde: Through the Eyes of a Godking

Chapter 345: Assault on the Lost Continent



This is evident from the way they hastily scrambled to form some semblance of order to deal with the sudden arrival of their enemies.

They never expected humans to be so bold, coming all the way here and bringing the battle to them. At first, some demons thought that the humans had lost it. Don't they know that this land has been thoroughly corrupted by demons? This place is literally hell for them. Not to mention, they're completely outnumbered here. What made them so brave?

But as the clash went on, the demons realized their folly. None of them would dare say this out loud, but deep down, they knew that humans weren't stupid. They wouldn't risk their lives for absolutely nothing. They were more than prepared to deal with them.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Cannons, catapults, ballistas, heavy artillery, tanks—hell, there's even someone who's riding a mecha somewhere, reaping demon life like they're some common wheat. Who knows where the hell they pulled all of this out from? All that matters is that humans are adept at using them, and they're doing some serious damage to the number of demons around.

ROAAR!!

War throes, wails of pain, agonized screams, roars of unwillingness—all of these sounds could be heard all over the Lost Continent, with the majority coming from demons themselves.

The entire continent was rocked by explosions. Bright lights flew everywhere, staining the darkness with all sorts of colors. Fire blazed everywhere; it burned the corpses of demons and purified their remains.

Humans seem to be fond of using them, and it seems that these fires contain a special element that also burns the impurities in the air, greatly lessening the density of demonic corruption on the continent.

"HUMANS! HOW DARE YOU!!!"

King Pride bellowed in hate. His entire frame quavered with anger, and his eyes were almost completely dyed red with how furious he was. Next to him were his fellow sin demons: Gluttony, Lust, Sloth, Greed, and Envy.

They all stared hatefully at the several silhouettes floating in the air, looking down at them in disdain and cold indifference. King Pride, especially, isn't very fond of this. In his mind, the roles should be reversed; he should be the one looking down on these pitiful lambs, not the other way around.

The feeling of humiliation burned him from the inside. He wanted nothing more than to break free from his constraints and slaughter the humans that were laying waste on his people.

Unfortunately, the prison they're in right now was specially made for this occasion. It's not like he hasn't tried before. He did, but he failed miserably at that.

As soon as King Pride felt the first impact of the explosion that set off this entire scene, he was already restrained. The cage appeared out of nowhere around him, and no matter what he did, he couldn't break it.

Lust was imprisoned with him because she was nearby when this all started. It didn't take long before the rest of his fellow sin demons appeared one by one within the cage too.

Even after combining their strength as one and tapping into the seemingly bottomless well of power contained within the Insignia of Sin, none of them were able to muster up enough force to break the cage. Such helplessness was something they had never felt before, and it made them mad.

"Give it up, Kitty." Fiona popped her knuckles with a fierce grin on her face. "You can't interfere with what's happening outside. You will play here with us until either we or you all die."

She's wearing a full set of modern armor for this operation. Next to her were Lissandra, Gabriel, Old Man Jin, Charles, and the High Marshals. Somehow, they trapped themselves in here with them.

Fiona's right. Neither party can get out of this cage unless the other dies. This cage was something that Charles invented himself; he made them using preciously rare materials that even he felt were excessive, and that's saying a lot about its quality. The durability of this thing isn't something that these Demon Kings could only dream of breaking, even after combining their strengths.

This is the arena of life and death. This entire place is isolated from the outside, and the only way to exist is by killing the other party.

Lust and the other sin demons peered outside and wore solemn faces. They certainly weren't expecting to be caught off guard like this. Even they have to admit that this was impressive. Your next journey awaits at m v|l-e'-NovelBin.net

They could also see that, for some reason, the density of demonic corruption was lessening at an alarming pace. It's like each time they blink, more and more of its layers are disappearing.

This not only helped humans with visibility but also weakened the Demons, who have become used to its presence. Previously, the fog was so dense that it was hard to see further ahead, so the soldiers could only try their best. However, as time goes on, the volume is steadily decreasing, making it easier for humans to stay active in their tasks.

There weren't a lot of humans here, to be honest. Compared to the millions of demons that have remained on the Lost Continent, the human army wouldn't even go past 100,000 in number.

And this is with only a handful of people declining to join the war effort. The overwhelming majority of the people who learned about the plans of the army unhesitatingly joined right away. Still, they remain outnumbered. But it's fine since they could make up for the lack of numbers with sheer, overwhelming strength.

As for the Sin Demons, imprisoning them with the pillars of humanity was one of the plans they had since the beginning. They couldn't let these Demon Kings roam freely on the battlefield because the damage they could do would obviously be greater compared to other demons.

"It's about time we settle down the scores with you monsters." Raven descended a bit lower as he coldly regarded the Sin Demons. "Your kind will no longer oppress us! Today is the day that you all die!!"

Boom! Boom! Boom!

There were no additional flares or tricks, no extended speech or arguments, etc. The pillars of humanity brought out their best and clashed with the sin demons. Only one side will come out of this prison alive, and humans are very determined to be those people.

Gabriel stayed behind and blessed his comrades with his blessings, giving them the power of sunlight that could purify sin and evil as well as the speed of light. He also dealt with the attacks that threatened to warp his comrades' minds into insanity with his pious prayers.

Tech God Charles stayed with him and unleashed all sorts of mechanical wonders. Despite not looking like a fearsome soldier like the others, his desire to eliminate demonkind is no less than any of them. Who knows what manner of things he installed on these creations for this specific task?

Lissandra stood not too far from them. She, along with Anthony, Filius, and Cassandra, will pelt their enemies with attacks from a distance. Fiona, Raven, Garrick, and Old Man Jin will be up close and personal with these monsters.

In response to their formation, the Sin Demons collectively began tapping into the deep well of maddening power from their respective insignia.

Big Sloth and Fat Gluttony practically tripled in size and power. Sir Greed solemnly unsealed his huge backpack, taking out several items that looked extremely dangerous. A pink ethereal smoke wafted out of Mistress Lust's body; all who saw it knew not to inhale it because it's either a deadly psychedelic substance or straight-up poison.

Lady Envy also released large puffs of golden dust that began blending with the air.

And finally, King Pride. Simply put, he completely succumbed to the sensation of power flooding through his veins. His fur bristled and turned crimson. His killing intent manifested itself in the form of thousands of ghosts wailing in perpetual agony. His eyes turned completely scarlet in rage, and his entire body bulged, containing explosive power.

The clash between the best began right after this. It was fast-paced, dangerous, and soul-stirring. The fight happening outside of the prison was nothing compared to what's happening here.

Nobody dared to hold anything back. As much as the demons hated to admit it, humans truly got to them at a bad time. None of them expected this.

Lust, in particular, feels extremely terrible right now. Her face was figuratively swollen from the fact that it slapped her awake. It turns out that King Pride's intuition a few weeks ago was correct; the humans were indeed plotting against them. She couldn't believe it, but the facts are now displayed right in front of her, and she's unable to deny it.

If Lady Envy had ever learned of this, she would've strangled her immediately for being too stupid. Unfortunately, now is neither the time nor the place for that. As much as she hates Lust to her core, she's still a comrade.

As for whether they made their way out of this alive or not, honestly, Lady Envy couldn't care less anymore. All she knows is that she's tired of all of this.
