Chapter 543 The Mentor Arrives
Finally, finally--

Under Roland's gaze, the sword of the first headless horseman finally fell on the Balrog.

That was really a very, very light slash.Not to mention the standard of the Headless Horseman, even if he were to slash at mortals, the sword would only cut through flesh and blood at best, not even bones.

There is really no way.

He was almost burned to death - or rather he was burned to death.His headless horse had been burnt to death on the road long ago, the head he held in his arms had already been turned into ashes, the lower half of his body was turned into ashes together with the horse, and only a spine, half of his shoulders and the upper half of his body remained. Only two-thirds of a right arm remains.

The reason why he was able to slash on the Balrog was only because when he was thrown by the horse, the blade just hit the Balrog.

If this can be counted as slashing, then walking should be judged as a bruise judgment.

But even with such a weak slash, the Balrog still fought back mercilessly.

From the position where it touched the Balrog, the headless horseman's black long sword was ignited by the extremely scorching heat wave.Red-gold flames ignited from the blade, and burned all the way back, consuming everything that could and could not be burned, and pale ashes floated in the air.

However, as Roland said, their sacrifices were not meaningless.

First of all, these devils at least blocked the Balrog firmly in place, and did not let the Balrog come to Roland with the blind prayer behind him, and controlled Roland within the attack range of the Balrog.

——Even if that price is the death of demons who have paid tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.

"Back to the dust—"

Roland aimed at the moment of opportunity, and suddenly raised the scepter in his hand.

The next moment, the black ice of Netherland rushed out from Roland's feet, spreading along the ashes of all the devils after death, freezing all the ashes into black ice, thus completely freezing the magma under Balrog's feet.

And the most conspicuous one is the position where the Balrog was beheaded by the Headless Horseman before.

Compared with those devils who were instantly reduced to ashes, this headless horseman died due to the heat expansion and explosion in his body.After he was burned to death by the counterflame, his ashes were flying in the air, inevitably getting some of the Balrog's body.

After that, an expanding layer of black frost appeared on Balrog's body.

Like an ever-expanding cancer.The trail of frost made its movements slow until it spread to connect with the black ice on the ground, and the Balrog was frozen in place by Roland.

This has nothing to do with temperature.

In a normal world, no matter how low the temperature is, it is impossible to freeze the Balrog because he is just a ball of flame.

To be precise, this is actually a phenomenon that occurs naturally in the underworld.

After the law of Netherland was driven into the abyss by Roland, some phenomena that existed in Netherland as much as possible began to repeat in the abyss.It's like the immortality of the Balrog is weakened, or it's like it's just a ball of flame but it will be frozen.In Netherland, there is nothing that will never be frozen.

Rather than saying that it is frozen, it is better to say that it is still.

That is absolute tranquility and stillness, which comes from the iron law of the underworld.No matter how many combinations of prayers are used, the pure resting power that cannot be fully replicated can even freeze the Balrog for a short period of time after meeting the requirements.

However, Roland spent hundreds of thousands of devil's lives, so naturally it was impossible just to freeze the Balrog.

He decided to exterminate the demons here and end the demon invasion ahead of schedule.

"Elucard—"

Roland called softly without hesitation.

"I am here, Your Majesty the Emperor."

Alcardo responded immediately.

Roland didn't even have time to look at her face, so he knew what she was thinking at the moment.

Without the slightest hesitation, he opened his mouth and replied: "Go and exterminate the demons immediately! Purify the filth!"

"As you wish."

Elcardo bowed her head piously to answer, a trace of scarlet arrogance gradually appeared on her delicate and sweet face.

She didn't ask Roland how the huge Balrog wanted to deal with it.

Elcardo only knew that, as the emperor's entourage, she didn't have any need to question it.

Doubt is doubt.All she has to do is obey.

She believed that Roland would be able to solve the current predicament, otherwise he would ask Elcardo for help.

This is the duty of a faithful servant—

But there is no doubt that it is impossible for hundreds of thousands of devils to sacrifice just to let Roland fix the Balrog.

In the fault space behind Roland, something terrible seemed to be slowly appearing.

It was a huge levitating something.In terms of size, it is 130 meters in width and more in length.At first glance, it looked a bit like a box or a spaceship, but upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a coffin.

However, no one sat on the coffin.Just a clean coffin board.

So, Roland took a deep breath, and the crystal crown on his head suddenly shone brightly.

"May you come, mentor!"

While he was praying loudly, a vast consciousness buzzed down from the sky and poured into Roland's mind.For a moment, he even had the illusion that he could kill the plane in front of him just by waving his hand.

But after Roland regained consciousness a little bit, he directly put away the blind prayer behind him, and then summoned his own projection again.

The next moment, a cold and indifferent coercion descended from the sky, and the air seemed to become icy cold.A silver-gray halo lit up behind Roland, illuminating the dark, blood-like sky.

"—I will bring disaster upon you, Nokgar."

Behind Roland, a black and slender silhouette that mortals cannot look directly at reprimanded in a cold and indifferent voice.

"I will cut off what is yours from the face of the earth. Whatever is yours will be cut off, whether it is stone or flesh."

When her voice fell, it seemed as if there were invisible waves of water rippling.

The next moment, like harvesting wheat, all the demons fell down and lost their vitality.They have no scars, curses, diseases, cardiac arrests, or even aging.

They just died.To die is to die, for no reason other than that.

All things have an end, and they are just forwarding their own death to the present.

What's even more weird is that the faces of these demons are full of strange peace and happiness, as if they discovered the mysteries of the universe before they died.

"All glory to the Master."

Roland bowed his head respectfully and turned his head to pay tribute, and the mentor also smiled and nodded to Roland.

This was the first time he saw the body of the sleeping teacher in the material world.

The saint is precisely because he is too powerful to enter the subsidiary plane with a complete posture, so he needs a lord to help manage the subsidiary plane.

Summon the Netherland to replace the law of the abyss, use the Netherland to send yourself and Elcardo in safely, and then use the prayer to open the gate to hell with all your strength, let the mentor send the devil in, let the devil buy time to send the mentor's incarnation call out.

This is Roland's complete plan.As long as it succeeds, not only can eliminate the crisis of demon invasion, get rid of Nokgar when he is weakest, and even regain the elemental plane.

The only difference from Roland's imagination was that even if the mentor came only as an incarnation, he could still wipe out all the lives of a group of people on the same plane at will.In the original plan, this step was originally done by Elcardo and the devils.

"Are you...the Eternal Sleep Instructor?"

At this time, a gentle and deep voice sounded from one side.

Roland turned his head, and found that the yellow eyes that had been dancing in the silent Balrog's eyes finally went out, and turned into two crystal-clear gemstones like amber, and the lines on his body became much more complicated.

"Which avatar are you? Naraku? Orlon? Pest? Why do you want to enter my world?"

"I am Nirola, Nirola who sleeps peacefully."

The Eternal Sleep Instructor turned his head, and his voice gradually became cold: "Nokgar, I'm here to tell you—"

"—your hour has come."
