Chapter 443: Escape without a Fight

The demons watching were stunned. What day is today? Just now, a guy who challenged the lord's position was killed, and another one appeared?

Illidan, who appeared in the center of the square, swung a long whip of fire and whipped Duke Dracula. All the demons immediately understood that this was another challenger who wanted to become the new demon duke.

The demons who were dispersing stopped their steps and continued to watch the development of the situation with interest. Compared with the sickle demon who just died, the fire demon is relatively rare in the land of the abyss, and most demons don't even know much about the ability of the fire demon.

Although Duke Dracula ruled this small town, the nature of demons destined them to be unlikely to be very loyal to the so-called lord. On the contrary, except for the demon soldiers who truly surrendered to the lord, the subjects of the demon lords were generally happy to see their lords replaced by foreign demons.

This is because during the period of transition between the old and new rulers, they can do things that they may not be able to do at ordinary times. Moreover, usually, in order to seek stability in the territory they have just acquired, new lords will temporarily relax some of the jurisdiction and taxes on the people.

To be honest, the demons watching Illidan's prospects are not optimistic. The sickle demons who have become soul harvesters have all died in the hands of Duke Dracula. Even though Illidan now appears in the form of a rarely seen fire demon, the demons do not think he is Duke Dracula's opponent.

But this is only the view of the demons watching. Unlike these demons whose strength is very weak compared to the two people and one corpse on the field, Duke Dracula, who is sucking the blood of the sickle demon, loosens the sharp teeth that are stuck in the neck of the sickle demon, raises his head and looks at Illidan with a serious face.

Before, when facing the sickle demon, this Duke Dracula has always been calm, as if the powerful soul harvester is no threat to him at all. Of course, the final ending of the sickle demon also proves that Duke Dracula is indeed qualified to be calm.

However, when facing the Balrog incarnation of Illidan, Duke Dracula could not help but frown. The breath of the Balrog opposite him did not seem to have reached the peak of the legendary level, but it gave him a feeling that was much more dangerous than the Scythe Demon he had just killed.

Moreover, this Balrog exuded a breath that made his heart palpitate. It was just like that time... For some reason, Duke Dracula suddenly felt that he had come to the most dangerous moment in his life.

Seeing Illidan's tentative flaming whip coming over, Duke Dracula quickly dropped the body of the Scythe Demon and dodged, stopping outside the reach of the flaming whip, looking at Illidan vigilantly and speaking.

"This powerful Balrog, do you also want to obtain the status of lord?"

Hearing Duke Dracula's question, Illidan raised his eyebrows. In fact, although he had the idea of ​​seizing a dukedom, he did not want to take action immediately. After all, he was not very skilled in controlling the transformed body of the Fire Demon, so he had to find a demon duke who was not too strong to seize his position. For example, Duke Dracula, who could easily kill the sickle demon of the same level, was obviously the most powerful among the demon nobles, and was not an easy opponent.

But whether it was because of the inexplicable familiarity in his heart or the order of the Father God, he had to capture this Duke Dracula. In his mind, Yu Fei's order to Illidan was to capture the bat-winged demon lord who was suspected to be the dread demon even if his true form was exposed.

Of course, fighting always requires an excuse, and seizing the lord's position is obviously a good excuse, and this is what Illidan wanted to do. So, he followed Duke Dracula's question and admitted it.

"Yes, this seems to be the duke named Dracula? Your territory and your life, just leave it to me." Although he turned into a Fire Demon, Illidan's arrogance remained unabated, and what he said seemed to be natural, which made the demons watching twitch their eyes.

This fire demon is too arrogant, isn't it? Didn't he see the sickle demon that has turned into a mummy? The demons who have lived in this small town for a while have a general understanding of Duke Dracula's strength.

Otherwise, they would not have rushed over to watch the battle between two legendary demons. If the strength of the two legendary demons fighting was similar, the aftermath of the battle would be enough to injure or even kill some demons below the gold level.

Illidan's answer seemed extremely impolite, and the onlookers looked at the fire demon who didn't know how to live or die in their eyes with pity. But then, Duke Dracula's reaction made them all stunned, and they couldn't believe their ears.

"In this case, your Excellency the powerful fire demon, the title of the Demon Duke and this small town are yours. I believe you won't mind if I give up these two things and leave?"

What? ! ! The demons watching felt like they were struck by lightning - although lightning rarely appears in the demon world. How is this possible? Shouldn't Duke Dracula's reaction be to angrily kill the provocative Balrog again? How could he say such a thing!

However, Duke Dracula said so, and he ignored the shock of the demons watching. After watching Illidan finish his words about giving up the city and his dukehood, he turned into a blood-red bat with a bang and a puff of smoke, flapping his wings and trying to fly away.

Obviously, Duke Dracula was not joking. He was ready to leave directly to prove that he was indeed willing to hand over his title and territory to Illidan.

Illidan was also very surprised after hearing Duke Dracula's answer, but he would never let Duke Dracula leave so easily. The order given by the Father God was to capture the bat alive, even if it exposed his identity as not a demon.

Without any hesitation, Illidan flew forward, and a dark red flame mark in his hand was shot out, attacking Duke Dracula who was about to fly away.

This is a natural ability of the fire demon he incarnated, soul burning. The lethality that this ability can bring is not very strong, but it can mark an enemy and bring him a little continuous damage. The most important thing is that it can have a certain effect of banning magic.

The effect of soul burning is still good. There is an abnormal red color on the body. The blood-colored bat flying in the air quickly landed and turned into Duke Dracula standing on the ground again.

At this time, Duke Dracula no longer had the noble demeanor before, but stared at Illidan with an ugly face. "Why, do you still want to keep me here?"

Illidan deliberately laughed wildly, and replied with a hot breath like lava in his mouth: "That's right, not only your title and territory, I also want to burn your body!"

While speaking, Illidan raised his hand and shot a lava arrow at Duke Dracula, not giving him a chance to speak again.

Facing Illidan's unreasonable attitude, Duke Dracula's eyes flashed a trace of anger, but his reaction was to continue to flee, without any intention of fighting Illidan.

This? Looking at Duke Dracula who did not transform into a bat again, but directly relied on his own speed to pass through the demons and leave, Illidan was a little speechless. He had made such an arrogant gesture, why didn't this Duke Dracula follow the script? Shouldn't he be furious and fight with him?

Surprised in his heart, Illidan's actions were not slow. He couldn't just watch Duke Dracula escape like this. It stands to reason that a demon noble like Duke Dracula would not give up his title and foundation to someone else, and it is even more impossible for him to flee without fighting when facing an enemy with a weaker aura than himself.

Now it is not just Yu Fei, Illidan himself has also become curious about Duke Dracula. This guy who is different from ordinary bat-winged demons must have a secret!

Leaving behind a group of confused onlookers, Duke Dracula and Illidan fled and chased each other and left the town, rushing into the distance.
