Dimensional Keeper: All My Skills Are at Level 100 Chapter 1278 Desperate Demons

The tide of war shifted firmly toward the human geniuses as the minutes ticked by. The demonic waves, once seemingly endless, began to thin out significantly. Each strike delivered by the seven squads tore massive gaps into the advancing ranks, leaving dark mounds of demon corpses piled high across the field.

Victor’s thunderous fists pulverized every monster in his path, creating shockwaves that blew apart enemy lines before they could regroup. Simultaneously, Michael’s lightning struck with surgical precision, his spiraling bolts of electricity carving gaping holes through the dense clusters of demon warriors.

A radiant tide of golden flames surged from Seraphina, incinerating any creature that dared to close in on her squad. Nearby, Daniel’s shadows acted with ruthless efficiency, swallowing the bodies of his foes until they vanished entirely within his dark fire.

Chris and Christine worked in tandem, alternating between freezing and burning whole battalions of demons. Meanwhile, Arthur’s swords glided through the air with absolute authority, intercepting and slicing the charging beasts long before they could threaten his teammates.

With every passing moment, the demon count plummeted. Their confidence shattered under the unyielding pressure, and their once-earth-shaking horde devolved into a disorganized, screaming mass struggling to maintain any semblance of order.

The disciplined unity of the human squads—a direct result of the rigorous training Max had enforced—proved to be a devastating advantage. Their formations remained unbreakable, and the sheer force they exerted drove the demon army into a desperate retreat within the spatial barrier Max had erected.

The demons attempted to flee, yet every retreat ended in failure as they slammed into the sealed boundary or were caught in the crossfire of relentless elemental bombardments.

As the enemy numbers dwindled, the squad leaders finally had the breathing room to notice their surroundings. Throughout the first half of the engagement, they had been entirely consumed by the task of hacking through the endless waves of monsters.

It was only now, as the horizon became visible through the clearing battlefield, that they spotted the demon leaders lingering behind the crumbling frontlines. These commanders had watched the slaughter with mounting terror, realizing that the humans were not tiring but were actually becoming more synchronized.

Their tall, menacing silhouettes were easy to spot against the backdrop of their retreating troops. The auras they projected confirmed that several possessed power equal to the human leaders, yet they remained frozen in place. Their hesitation was a clear sign of their cowardice.

Seraphina was the first to lock eyes with them. There were six in total. Narrowing her gaze, she analyzed their posture and immediately picked up on the palpable anxiety radiating from the group.

"They seem to be afraid of something," she remarked with a solemn expression.

Michael followed her gaze and quickly assessed the situation. "Of course they are. They are losing this battle—and this war."

Daniel’s dark flames flickered restlessly as he observed the demon leaders huddled together, clearly trying to maintain a safe distance from both the frontlines and Max.

Chris and Christine also turned their attention toward the enemy command, realizing these elites had been waiting for a moment to strike that never came. Arthur adjusted his position in the air, moving closer to the others to get a better vantage point of the exposed demon leadership.

The reason for the demon leaders' inaction soon became obvious to the humans. They glanced toward Max, who was still hovering calmly above the fray. His mere presence was enough to paralyze any demon strong enough to sense his true depth.

The demon commanders exchanged panicked looks, some even taking small steps backward, desperate for an escape route now that their army had been decimated.

However, because the battlefield was locked by Max’s 5th level space concept, there was no way out. This realization hit the demons hard, and a thick sense of doom settled over them as they watched their chances of survival vanish alongside their troops.

With the chaos of the main horde settled, the squad leaders turned their full focus toward the remaining elites. Their gazes sharpened and their auras flared once more. The final stage of the confrontation was at hand.

"Let’s go and finish them too," Victor said, a confident smirk playing on his lips as he looked at the distant demon leaders. Their once-intimidating presence had withered under the reality of their defeat.

Michael looked between the demon leaders and his own companions. "Wait, who will fight who?" he asked, genuinely curious. "There are five demon leaders and seven of us." He squinted, trying to gauge their exact strength, though the lingering smoke of battle made it difficult to be certain of their levels.

Victor went quiet for a moment, weighing the situation with unusual gravity. Finally, he spoke: "Seraphina and I will sit this one out. You five go ahead and take them down."

His voice held no doubt, only absolute confidence. He knew his five comrades were powerful enough to handle the enemy elites, even without his help.

By stepping back, he was providing them with the chance to gain vital combat experience against high-level opponents.

Arthur, Daniel, Michael, Chris, and Christine shared brief smiles. Their fatigue vanished, replaced by a surging fighting spirit and a grim determination to end the demon leaders.

The five of them surged forward, ascending higher into the sky before streaking across the battlefield toward the anxious demon elites.

Sensing the approach of the five geniuses, the demon leaders tensed up, their auras erupting in a desperate act of self-defense. They unleashed their full power to create a barrier of pressure, but it failed to slow the human advance.

As the two forces finally collided, the air exploded with violent shockwaves that rippled throughout the sealed domain.
