Chapter 156: Escape (Part 3)
The sudden appearance of this huge creature immediately disrupted the demon army''s plan to slaughter humans.
The refined Nine-Headed Snake King was telepathically connected to Han Ming, so to speak, its consciousness was now Han Ming''s consciousness.
The Nine huge heads of the Nine-Headed Snake King waved in the air, constantly spitting out orbs of light, freezing each demon soldier into a crystalline form that shattered into powder with the slightest touch.
"This is bad! Adela, watch out!"
Gugel saw one of the huge tongues suddenly smashing down towards the Wild Storm Lord Adela and hurriedly shouted a warning.
The huge tongue, at a speed invisible to the naked eye, turned into a phantom and rapidly descended.
As the Wild Storm Lord, and also a fifth-level wind-type battle king, Adela''s speed was the fastest among the five attributes.
Before Gugel could even warn him, Adela had already seen the Nine-Headed Snake King''s attack.
Adela''s body turned into a gust of wind and quickly dodged to the side.
The huge tongue smashed down on the ground the moment after Adela dodged.
With a huge roar, the ground within dozens of meters trembled violently. Many demon soldiers standing on the field were shaken into the air, and then another huge head swept across, smashing all these demon soldiers in the air into pieces.
Adela narrowly escaped disaster and hadn''t even caught his breath when another snake head smashed towards him.
"Damn it! You''re targeting me!"
Adela shouted in frustration and quickly dodged again. But this time, there were three consecutive snake heads attacking him.
After clumsily dodging two snake head attacks, Adela was finally smashed heavily by the third snake head.
Adela spat out a large mouthful of fresh blood with pieces of internal organs, and his body flew away like a kite.
In just the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, almost all the demon soldiers in the arena were slaughtered.
"Run! We''re no match for it!"
Gugel roared loudly, his body surged forward, picked up Adela who had fallen to the ground, and quickly ran towards the outside of the arena.
The green-robed old man, who had been pursued by Kulo, took advantage of Kulo''s shock at seeing the Nine-Headed Snake King and sprinted rapidly, arriving among Han Ming''s group. With his strength as a fifth-level fourth-stage wood-type battle king, he quickly cleared a path through the crowd.
Glancing at Kulo, who was chasing again, he muttered a curse about the trouble and, with a flick of his hands, several thin strands of fighting energy shot out towards Han Ming. Although Gugel and Adela didn''t know who had summoned the beast soul of the Nine-Headed Snake King, in the chaotic scene, there was no time to notice who the master of the beast soul was. However, the green-robed old man happened to see the moment the Nine-Headed Snake King burst out from within Han Ming.
He knew in his heart that as long as Han Ming was killed, the beast soul of the Nine-Headed Snake King would disappear, and their plan could proceed smoothly.
Seeing the fighting energy from the green-robed old man, Han Ming quickly condensed a frost shield for defense. Unlike the ice shield, which formed an oval shape similar to an egg to completely wrap around him, the frost shield took the form of a shield. The frost shield was more solid, but its defensive range was not as wide as the ice shield.
The fighting energy struck Han Ming''s frost shield. The first two were immediately neutralized and shattered the shield, while the third penetrated Han Ming''s abdomen.
"Han Ming!"
Shang Que stood beside Han Ming, watching helplessly as Han Ming pushed him away to face the fighting energy alone, unable to offer any help.
"I''ll kill you!!"
Seeing Han Ming hit, Kulo became frenzied, her long hair instantly scattering, whipping through the air like countless poisonous snakes.
Kulo was angry.
The green-robed old man, seeing his attack succeed and not wanting to linger in battle, quickly retreated, but unexpectedly, Kulo intercepted him with unbelievable speed.

"You crazy woman! Get out of my way!"
The green-robed old man roared in frustration. This woman had repeatedly disrupted his plans, and he was somewhat intolerable. If it weren''t for being unable to defeat her, the green-robed old man really would have risked being attacked by the Nine-Headed Snake King to kill this woman.
Kulo''s face was ferocious, no longer resembling her original appearance. She exuded a terrifying murderous aura, her fingernails growing long, and she waved her hands in the air, ten air fissures carved by her nails flying towards the green-robed old man.
The green-robed old man resisted with fighting energy while quickly fleeing the scene. He managed to block eight of the ten air fissures with all his strength, but the other two directly severed his right arm.
The green-robed old man glared at Kulo resentfully and leaped out of the arena.
At this point, Kulo had completely lost her mind due to anger and chased after the green-robed old man like a madwoman, showing a fight-to-the-death attitude.
"Han Ming! Han Ming, how are you!?"
Shang Que and Quik asked worriedly.
Han Ming covered his abdomen with his right hand and struggled to cast a healing spell to treat his wound, holding the large water-type magic crystal in his left hand. He said weakly, "Quick! Leave this place! The beast soul of the Nine-Headed Snake King won''t last much longer, and the energy of the crystal is about to run out!"
It was only then that Shang Que and Quik learned that the terrifying Nine-Headed Snake King beast soul was summoned by Han Ming, and they looked at Han Ming in horror. But now was not the time for hesitation, and the two supported Han Ming''s shoulders and quickly fled towards the outside of the arena.
Without the barrier of the seal, and with nearly ninety percent of the demon soldiers killed by the Nine-Headed Snake King, the surviving people also fled in panic from this hell on earth. The arena was now completely unrecognizable, its entire body dyed red with blood.
The group quickly fled the arena, and the streets ahead were filled with demon soldiers slaughtering humans, but fortunately, these demon soldiers were of ordinary strength and not as bizarre as those that had besieged them in the arena.
The Nine-Headed Snake King followed behind, lowering its nine heads.
"Go up!"
Han Ming said weakly. He was seriously injured and could only stay conscious through his strong will. He knew that if he lost consciousness, the Nine-Headed Snake King would disappear, and then they would all be doomed.
Dozens of experts jumped onto the Nine huge heads of the Nine-Headed Snake King.
The nine heads waved back and forth in the sky, spitting out dazzling light, freezing all the demon soldiers along the way into popsicles, and crushing several demon soldiers into minced meat with one heavy step. It was truly a temporary overlord.
The dark mass of flying demon soldiers chasing from above wanted to intercept Han Ming and the others but were frozen into popsicles by the light emitted by the Nine-Headed Snake King, falling from the sky and shattering into ice.
This Nine-Headed Snake King was different from Vivian''s flying magical beast; the flying magical beast had much less agility in the air, while the Eight heads of the Nine-Headed Snake King spewed light in eight directions, and the last head spewed light upwards, forming a defense system with no dead angles.
The demon soldiers chasing from behind were swept away by the Nine-Headed Snake King''s huge tail, all turned into fragments.
"The beast soul of the Nine-Headed Snake King!? This is really beyond my expectations. I didn''t expect that there would be such a monstrous beast soul hidden on the Northern Alliance continent," Ziyao looked into the distance and saw a huge phantom rushing through the city, its formidable aura even shocking him.
Luoyan stood quietly beside Ziyao and said indifferently, "Do you want to chase them?"
Ziyao pondered for a moment and shook his head, "Forget it, let them go. You are definitely no match for the Nine-Headed Snake King. If I go personally, there might be a chance, but it''s hard to control this group of magicians. That old man Morcar looks eager to try, and I''m afraid that as soon as I leave, he will call for the magicians in the city to resist. That would be very disadvantageous for us."
Hearing this, Luoyan nodded slightly. He didn''t care about human casualties at all; he belonged to the serpent-type beast soul, and human deaths were insignificant to him. Moreover, he didn''t have to risk his life for these demon realm guys. He was happy to stay out of it.
"It seems that we were not fully prepared this time. I didn''t expect that there would be someone among humans with a monstrous beast soul like the Nine-Headed Snake King. Otherwise, the experts from the three countries who gathered here would not have been able to escape. But it doesn''t matter," Ziyao laughed.
The beast soul of the Nine-Headed Snake King quickly rushed out of the city of Fila with Han Ming and the other experts. Compared to the city, there was much less demonic military defense outside the city. Seeing that the situation was hopeless, the human armies received the evacuation signal sent by Meren and the others into the sky, fighting and retreating, gathering with Meren and the others, breaking through the demonic army''s encirclement and fleeing to the Rhine Empire.
These people attracted most of the demonic military forces, and it was precisely because of this that Han Ming and the others were able to rely on the Nine-Headed Snake King to quickly break through the defenses and break out of the siege. During this time, the Nine-Headed Snake King shot down a airship and threw Han Ming and the others onto it. At this point, the energy of the large magic crystal was finally exhausted, and the Nine-Headed Snake King instantly turned into a light ball and returned to Han Ming''s body.
The group lay on the edge of the airship, looking down.
Seeing the once prosperous city of Fila now turned into ruins, millions of citizens in the distance were fleeing towards the Rhine Empire. The demonic army did not pursue them much, only slaughtering humans within the city. For them, these citizens had no combat power, and killing more or less was not very meaningful. As long as they could crush the human forces, that would be enough.
Han Ming and the others were all silent, looking at the mess below, and everyone''s heart was filled with desolation.
The country had fallen, and Queen Vivian had also perished. Except for the experts from other countries, all the experts of the Mont Empire felt an indescribable sense of decline.
From now on, they were homeless. No matter where they went, they could only be considered strangers, outsiders.
Han Ming looked at the demon soldiers slaughtering the citizens in the city below, gritted his teeth, and threw down the larva of the Broken Color Butterfly, Xiao Jian.
"Kill! Kill as many as you can! If you encounter someone who can hurt you, hide quickly! Then continue killing! When most of the demon soldiers notice you, evacuate quickly."
Han Ming gave such an order to Xiao Jian.
