Chapter 1077 - 441: Demon Raid
In the vast expanse of wilderness and forest.
As the branches were pushed aside, cracking sounds echoed, and several tall figures emerged from within the forest.
One of the figures waved a hand, directly snapping the obstructing tree in half.
"Keep quiet, you damned fool." One of the figures, seeing such a big commotion beside him, immediately turned his head and shouted angrily in a low voice.
"Watch your tone, I’m not your subordinate. If not for the general’s orders, I’d have chopped your head off and hung it at my waist right now." The person who had just broken the tree said bluntly.
A weapon was already held in their hands amidst their argument.
One wielded a giant pitch-black machete, resembling dried lava.
The other had a massive axe that needed both hands to hold, with many dried bloodstains and skulls hanging on it.
Their quarrel emitted a slight sulfurous smell in the air.
Another figure, who hadn’t participated in the argument, exhaled heavily, suppressing his own stirred anger.
Then he drew out the giant sword from his back, holding it horizontally in front of them.
Faced with their gazes, he bluntly said, "Stop now, you two idiots. If we fail this time because of you, think about your fate."
"Hmm, one day I’ll chop off his head," said the figure with the giant axe, hanging it on his back.
"You can try," replied the other, also hanging the machete behind him, the conflict temporarily resolved.
The figure with the giant axe scoffed, saying, "I wasn’t talking to you. I could chop your head off right now. I meant that coward."
"If you were as great as you claim, you wouldn’t be following us here."
The figure who stopped them mocked.
But he said nothing more, turning his head and continuing forward.
After passing through the woods again, they arrived at a wilderness of just weeds and rocks.
Under the sunlight, their true forms were revealed.
Three extremely large demons stood there.
Certainly powerful among demons, with crimson skin and a pair of black, menacing horns extending backward.
Their bodies were extremely hefty and tall, with some places having bone spikes and some black armored shells like steel.
A pair of expansive bat wings folded on their backs.
Looking at the unshielded wilderness, the lead demon with a giant sword raised his right hand. Blood-red light flashed, and the images of the three demons became hazy.
They vanished, walking forward, showing their invisibility could be judged by surrounding environments.
As they moved, small grasses on the wilderness were pressed down, leaving very simple footprints.
Under the sunlight, the air around them sometimes shimmered and distorted, though faintly, revealing their invisibility flaws.
But in such a vast wilderness, this level of invisibility was quite sufficient.
Unless very close, it was challenging to spot their invisibility flaws with the naked eye.
"We are already deep in here, might run into those bamboo knight squads," one demon said.
"Then kill them all."
"What a fool."
Just after a couple of words, they were about to argue again.
"Alright, don’t worry about those. I’ve dispatched small squads to stir up troubles around, drawing the eyes of those weak humans."
We just need to find the target, swiftly take them out, and claim our well-earned rewards with their heads or souls."
Saying this, the demon with the giant sword stood still, suddenly closing his eyes, gently sniffing something in the air.
Seemingly locking onto a target.
"I sense them, they’re not far. Now shut up and follow me carefully," he said, glaring at the demons behind him. Then he walked forward, the trio clearly becoming more cautious.
Even invisible, their cautiousness was apparent.
Not far away, three figures appeared, seemingly emerging from the backside of a small hill.
"Alka said this area is too vast, mapping it would take a long time," Jason complained, following behind Chadite.
The human-shaped Ulu Liwus was hopping along beside him.
Facing Jason’s complaints, Chadite seemed not to hear.
Not even Chadite leading in front paid attention to his words, focused instead on scanning.
Silver ripples expanded circle by circle, reaching far distances. Stepping forward, Chadite suddenly stood still, frowning deeply.
"What’s wrong?" Ulu Liwus, bouncing, bumped into Chadite’s back, rubbed her head, and asked curiously.
Only then she noticed, as Chadite suddenly stopped, Jason was already prepared for battle.
Immediately alert, she scanned the surroundings.
