Chapter 276: Chapter 248: The White Dragon’s [Dynamic Niche—Domination and Humiliation] Theory_2

Unlike the usual nervousness of the guards, Trish instead felt a surge of excitement.

Because based on past experience, this rift had never spawned particularly powerful demons.

More importantly, in the current special weather conditions, she could unleash more powerful combat strength than usual.

"Now is the time to let these demons taste the sting of humiliation!" The White Dragon extended her slender tongue, licking her jaw, and then fiercely flapped her wings, diving down amidst the swirling snowstorm.

Boom——!

As the ground shook suddenly, the Abyssal Rift burst open like an invisible giant hand tearing a wound on the earth, revealing itself.

The Kuase Demons gushed out densely, like fresh blood.

These goat-sized low-tier demons, with small wings, exclaimed in excitement as they made contact with the air of the Prime Material Plane.

Then.

Came the distorted creatures with disproportionate forms, the Primordial Demons.

Their bodies covered with various pustules and bulbous cysts, the Foul-smelling Demons emitted a rank stench.

As the demons appeared en masse, gathering together, the abyssal aura grew thick and intense.

Wherever the demons passed, the snow quickly melted, the ground corrupted into sulphur-smelling scorched earth, the air around seemed to be stained dark, blurring the boundary between two different worlds.

Ice Wall Technique!

The White Dragon raised her head with a roar, casting a spell.

With her wings flapping, walls of ice rose from the ground, dividing the demon onslaught, leaving only a single passage.

Elvira simultaneously flapped her wings, ascending into the sky.

She drew her bow, the Divine Energy gathered between her recurved bow, materializing arrows of energy, which she fired at the center of the demon horde.

Whoosh——Boom!

The high-temperature sacred energy exploded into a massive orb of light, swallowing the demons, whose properties were countered, turning them to ash and dust.

The expanding abyssal aura was also purified and evaporated.

The Primordial Demons and Foul-smelling Demons, incapable of flying, were trapped within the ice walls. In panic, they surged through the remaining passage, only to be slaughtered by the ready Ogre Guard and Centaur Warriors.

The Kuase Demons flapped their small wings, charging into the air.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

The Centaur Divine Archers’ arrows rained down, accurately targeting the Kuase Demons leaping over the ice walls, each arrow nearly hitting its mark.

White Dragon Trish focused on the elite within the Kuase Demons.

Clang!

With a crisp collision sound, the demon elite, much more muscular and robust than the other Kuase Demons, turned swiftly, deflecting the incoming arrow with its short blade.

But in the next moment, a storm surged.

The White Dragon’s body enveloped the Kuase Demon elite, her claws outstretched, seizing and instantly crushing it.

"Crawlers of the abyss! Fear and tremble!"

The Giant Dragon laughed wildly and arrogantly. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

The humiliation and slaughtering of the weaker demons always brought satisfaction to the White Dragon, fulfilling the deep-seated desire for carnage rooted in the Evil Dragon’s heart.

Afterwards, the battle situation showed a one-sided stance.

As time passed, the demons were killed one after another.

Soon, thousands of demon corpses lay on the ground, their black blood soaking the earth, from above looking like a stubborn ink stain in the snowy world.

The followers wiped the snow, cleansing demon blood from their weapons.

Low-level demons caused not much harm to these elite guards, but during the battle and death, they constantly emitted abyssal aura, their blood possessing both physical corrosion and psychological impact.

The followers’ movements were sluggish, their eyes occasionally flashing with a violent look, struggling to suppress the evil desires surging from within.

Elvira gently exhaled.

She noticed the unusualness in the other followers, a situation not occurring for the first time.

Continuous combat with demons easily leads warriors to be eroded by the abyss, even assimilating into a demon race, turning back to kill their former companions.

In such cases, guiding the guards away and replacing them with a fresh batch would suffice.

After some time, the recovered guards, whose mental will has been tempered by abyssal aura, become even more resilient.

But just then.

The Abyssal Rift, which had calmed down, suddenly emitted a fierce aura again.

Two huge, gaunt wings with blade-like black feathers suddenly unfolded, stretching out from the Abyssal Rift, followed by a flash of gray shadow, a particularly hideous demon that hadn’t appeared before manifested amid the wind and snow.

Standing about five meters tall, its hooked beak with serrated edges, compound eyes a deep red, a short horn atop its head.

Its skeletal frame was hunched like a vulture, covered with dark green and gray-black mixed feathers, the gaps exposing skin riddled with sores.

A sulfur-scented oil oozed from its surface, forming a foul-smelling vapor upon contact with air.

The Flom, also known as the Vulture Demon.

Whoosh——With a flap of its wings, it disappeared without warning, suddenly appearing behind an Ogre, its sharp, slender claws piercing the thick skin at the back of the neck, killing an Ogre Guard in a single strike.

And as this Vulture Demon emerged with an unusually intense abyssal aura.

Many formidable Vulture Demons, two to three meters high, rushed out from the Abyssal Rift, swarming in all directions, joined by more Kuase Demons, Primordial Demons, and Foul-smelling Demons, forming a demon tide.

And there were not just one, but five Vulture Demon leaders that flew out from the Abyssal Rift.

This time, the demons came fiercely.

The appearance of the Vulture Demons changed the battlefield.

White Dragon Trish and Centaur Elvira’s gazes swept over the rapidly moving Vulture Demon leaders, who could also teleport, instinctively alarmed.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!

Three Vulture Demon leaders targeted White Dragon Trish, flying around her at high speed, creating shadows everywhere.

Multiple attacks!

Rip!

The Vulture Demon leaders’ attacks landed on the White Dragon, the first breaking the Ice Armor, the second tearing her Dragon Scale, leaving a bloody, tearing wound, blood gushing ceaselessly.

The White Dragon roared a counterattack.

But the demons were no weaklings, being powerful at equal levels compared to most creatures, with three Vulture Demon leaders attacking simultaneously, incessantly using teleportation, foul-smelling cloud, and scream of fear, suppressing the White Dragon.

Meanwhile, two Vulture Demon leaders set their sights on Elvira.

Possessing Pegasus bloodline, sacred and noble mixed-blood Centaur, simultaneously evoked awe and an irresistible urge to ravage and murder.

Whoosh!

The arrows shot were dodged by the Vulture Demons’ twisting bodies.

Another Vulture Demon leader descended from the side, rapidly approaching, Elvira drew her great sword, infused it with magical energy, slashing fiercely, sending the Vulture Demon flying, spilling demon blood everywhere.

Yet before she could pursue, an evil wind suddenly came from behind.

Another Vulture Demon leader had teleported behind Elvira, she hurriedly evaded, but still was grazed by the Vulture Demon’s sharp claws, sharp pain coursing through, the wound tearing open, exuding the same foul stench, and like the White Dragon, blood flowed uncontrollably.

One-on-one, she feared not the Vulture Demon leader.

But now faced with many, the enemy being highly agile creatures, the battle became perilous.

"Sweet flesh, delicious souls."

"I can’t wait to feast."

Licking the blood on its claws, the Vulture Demons emitted a hoarse and cruel scream, attacking once more.

"Crawlers, you think you have the upper hand? Prepare to die."

Facing the sudden disadvantage, Trish didn’t lose her mind to anger.

She smiled coldly and decisively crushed the Emergency Communication Stone hidden beneath her scales.

In her perspective, although at this moment, these demon leaders seemed to have the upper hand, insulting and bullying her, as long as stronger reinforcements arrived, the situation would certainly turn, she had no need to feel anger for temporary humiliation.

This would be the best testament to her recent realization of the "dynamic equilibrium theory."
