Chapter 356: Finding A Way to Kill Those Energy Sucker Demons!

"Witch killers?" I asked, as the name was quite intriguing.

"Sure, this is a flying demon that was really scary. He attacked the witch and managed to inflict great damage on her, and this time they are coming in huge numbers! Those bastards have mustered the way to revive and clone all our kids! Damn them!"

The demon was angry, however this wasn't the time for that. I needed to figure out fast the nature and weakness of the incoming enemy, so I could face it!

"Just tell me more about this demon, and grab yourself together!"

He didn't reply, but the demoness, as she sighed before saying:

"Don't mind him, he was just there when the witch fell, and he also got some of this nasty demon's attack. This demon is an energy sucker, a type that would be attracted to any strong being with much energy. It will attack you as you currently have the highest energy here, and will insert his thin tube-like mouth into your skin to absorb your energy and weaken you.

This demon initially is weak, as it's not that powerful alone, but after sucking your energy, it will transform and be a very powerful being."

Her words enlightened me at once, before I hurriedly asked:

"Is it weak to the witch's energy?"

"No, the witch couldn't harm it, no matter what she used," she got silenced for a moment before adding, "but I recall I heard once that it was born from all the materials in this cosmos, so no attack using any weapon made here will harm him. I recommend you to withdraw fast, before it catches up to you."

Her words didn't discourage me, instead it made my mind work fast, and my heart palpitate stronger! I had artifacts that came from outside this universe! I had the shield, and my spear! These two were enough to block and kill these demons!

How lucky I was feeling right now! if not for that slight deviation in plan, and my strange visit to that outside universe, I wouldn't have brought back my current artifacts!

I was blessed, I was really blessed!

This wasn't a fight I would run away from!

"You stay here, and when you come out, just keep attacking the border!"

I then opened my eyes again, returning to the real world without the wait for my demon's reply. I glanced coldly at the incoming large could, which was getting darker, bigger, and closer than before.

"So, you think the witch here didn't learn from her previous lesson with you?" I smirked, as the next moment I threw my spear, moving at a great speed, crossing the huge distance between me and these demons, and in a minute my spear hit the cloud.

I was far, but the moment this attack fell, I felt the whole world went into strange silence. The next moment I hurriedly checked my hunger value, which was already zero, but in this mere one second it jumped to be two hundred!

I knew this was bad! These demons were consuming my hunger value like they were consuming water!

"You think you can deplete my energy simply like that?" I finally understood the meaning of consuming the energy, as they could absorb my hunger value, making it soar in an unprecedented way!

However, the next moment I made the whole balloon got full of pearls, and I literally dived deeply into it!

You want to consume my energy? Let's see whose consumption was higher!

Each pearl of these could replenish one hundred hunger points, as all came from the highest level demons in the previous layers.

So, eating just two of them in one breath was enough to counter the deficient value caused by these demons!

The silence got deeper and heavier, and even the light of this layer started to be dimmer, and I didn't stop eating for even one moment, neglecting all this, stuffing five pearls in one go into my mouth, chewing, biting, and swallowing hurriedly everything without stopping!

It wasn't a match of strength, it was a match of gluttony! And I was the winning side in it!

Long time passes rapidly without even feeling it, and the balloon starts to get empty of pearls. I only waved again, replenished the consumed pearls, and nothing else I did except eating with eyes fixed upon the hunger value!

The value was always kept at zero, and if it wasn't, I would be cursed then! I had the connection with my spear going well, so I knew what was happening there, roughly.

The moment my spear went into this cloud, it was stopped by these demons. I didn't know how, but it was marching very slowly towards the front, and each meter crossed came on the expense of a huge number of pearls consumed there!

I didn't want to bring it back, as I had huge reserves of pearls that could sustain my current consumption for days!

And so, this strange battle continued non-stop, while I didn't summon my demon, not yet.

It kept going like this until ten hours elapsed. During all this time, I refilled my balloon over twenty times already, with approximately half an hour enough for all pearls here to be consumed.

Once the tenth hour passed, the world was already in extreme deep darkness, and no sound was heard, not even the sound of the marching giants down below, not even the sound of air itself!

The next moment after the tenth hour, a huge explosion erupted. It came like the sun was birthed in this world, far away from here, at the distant point where my spear was!

I felt my spear breaking the shackles it had around it, regaining its freedom again, and instead of moving forward in its huge speed, it stopped in place, and gave birth to endless lightning bolts that started to form this sun-like explosion.

And the sun only got bigger with time, sweeping everything in its path, creating a really terrifying scene to behold.

"What the hell is that?!"
