Brand New Life Online: Rise Of The Goddess Of Harvest-Novel

Chapter 887 Reinforcements Are Here!

-----

The demonic arms went to finish off Albert while they could. Noticing how unusual he was. They wanted to drain him out of all the Demonic Energy he had, the source of his pseudo immortality, and kill him for real this time. 

"Fuck…!"

CRAAASH!

Albert barely had the strength to resist, trying to escape only for the arms to loom above him, descending. A loud explosion echoed. He believed he would have been squished like a lowly insect. But instead, as he opened his eyes, he realized he was somewhat still alive.

"What…? Oh, it's you!"

The young man's eyes widened as he saw a trio of beautiful women, ranging from their early twenties to their fifties. A barrier of venomous, purple acid stopped the arms, as whenever they touched this barrier, their fingers would instantly begin to dissolve and the poison would spread into the wound, weakening the arms and making them rot. 

A pair of enormous stone arms covered on ores and crystals held back three other gigantic demonic arms, wrestling against them and smashing and breaking their bones, tearing apart their fingers one after another, and forcing them to retreat.

And lastly, endless tentacles made of shadows wrapped around the other four, stopping them from moving as a huge draconic head made of darkness and Malice fired black flame beams, burning and piercing their bodies, leaving them full of holes.

"Hey! It's the Demon boy." Rita joked around, pointing her gun at the hands that freed themselves from her shadow tentacles. "[Super Bullet Time]"

FLASH!

Time itself seemed to run slower for her, but the truth was that her processing speed became incredibly fast for three seconds. She pointed her magic gun into the skies and fired a dozen of Elemental Spiritual Bullets imbued with the Holy Light attribute of her little Rat Familiar sitting above her head, Whitey.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

Although the bullets were initially small, the explosions they caused were big. Enough for the demonic arms to be torn to shreds as they were bombarded with these powerful projectiles. Thanks to her gun's ability to ignore 40% of a foe's Defenses, her attacks became incredibly deadly.

She kept firing her bullets, emptying half her total Mana as the Demonic Arms finally stopped harassing them. Over half of them quickly pulling back, bleeding and falling apart as they did. Albert was shocked, he had never seen such an incredible magic gun before.

"W-What is that magic gun?!" He muttered. "I-Incredible… Is it some sort of Anti-Demon Relic?"

"What?" Rita raised an eyebrow. "We save your live and this is how you thank us? Come on, snap out of it."

"Careful!" Lily cried, running towards them and grabbing both of them with her arms, before three more Demonic Arms were to descend where they were seconds ago.

BAAAMMM!!!

The entire surroundings trembled. It was a miracle the surrounding buildings were holding on as they were. It felt like at any moment, this entire neighborhood would be destroyed. As Lily ran, Jenny kept firing explosive bullets of acidic slime poison, stopping the arms from pursuing them too fast.

"They just keep coming endlessly!" Lily cried. "We came running here because we knew Elayne would be around. But where is she exactly?!"

"Over there!" Albert said, pointing at the distance. He didn't seem to mind being carried by a pretty lady like this. "I can see her! And Rose too!"

"Looks like they're not having it easier either!" Rita sighed, pointing her gun at the distance.

"Dammit, this is way too much for a young girl like me! Why did I had to get powers?!" Jenny complained, as if she wasn't enjoying the thrill of the moment.

As they ran towards her, they saw Elayne, Mark, Elena, and Monica fighting strange and demonic creatures. They were monstrous chimeric aberrations, no larger than three meters of height, made out of flesh, guts, bones, and broken fingers. Albert instantly recognized them with Hellberos knowledge.

"Demonic Spawns! Did they come out of the flesh and bones of the Demonic Arms we destroyed?!" Hellberos muttered. 

"Was this their plan all along?!" Albert screamed. "Dammit, why can Demons be so fucking disgusting?!"

As he complained, both groups finally meet up while fighting off the chimeras. Elayne used her sword and her shield to both slash and defend. While utilizing her spirit magic to bind her foes or blast them with holy spiritual light. The Chimeric Demon Spawns were not that strong, but their numbers kept rising as the flesh and bones left behind by the Demonic Arms raised back from the dead into aberrant monsters.

"SHAAAH!"

Four of these monstrous demons attacked Elayne at the same time, surrounding her and then trying to wear down her defenses by biting her with their sharp mandibles. However…

BANG! BANG! BANG!

Three powerful explosions of light later, the chimeric aberrations dropped dead for sure, their bodies charred by the holy light of Rita's Holy Bullets. Elayne's face immediately lightened and became brighter as she saw her beloved friend here.

"Rita! You came?!" Elayne cried in happiness.

"Of course I did! Why didn't you call us?!" Rita complained. 

"I-I didn't want to bother you…" Elayne apologized. "I'm sorry!"

"It's fine, it's fine. We don't got time to even talk here!" Rita kicked away a giant chimeric demonic spawn with her legs, covered on purple scales and an armor of shadows. 

CLASH!

BANG! BANG!

And then, she finished it off with a barrage of bullets, blowing it up into pieces. Although she had fought and defeated many monsters so far, her Mana reserves were quickly going down already. This was much more exhausting than anything they had done before. 

"Elayne! What do we do now?!" Lily cried. "That Gate will continue pouring Demon Arms, and they destroy anything! And if we kill them, their flesh will bring these things!"

"Our only option is to close the Demon Gate somehow!" Elayne said. 

"Albert, do you know of a way?!" Rose asked, without greeting him beforehand.

"I do, kind of…" Albert sighed. "But it won't work with just me alone… Elayne, and everyone here. We'll need everyone's help!"

"Sure!" Elayne nodded, as the Great Spirit's powers continuously flowed through her body. "We have to end this quickly, before things escalate to something we can't control!"
