Originally, Fangzheng thought that if the other party came to him on their own, he would just kill them all. However, to his embarrassment, Fangzheng did not see anyone come to him even when it was dark. This was really out of Fangzheng's expectation.
Could it be that they were really frightened by him?
With doubts, Fangzheng opened "The Banners of the Eight Fingers" and did some investigation. He finally understood the situation.
"It turns out that we're not the only ones targeting the Eight Fingers."
Looking at the answer given by "The Banners of the Eight Fingers", Fangzheng narrowed his eyes. He did not expect that the ruler of this country would also take this opportunity to eliminate these rats hiding in the dark in one fell swoop. Because of this, the kingdom's internal army was now ready to go. Under such circumstances, the officials who were related to Eight-Finger were probably done for.
Of course, he could stop here, but …
"Let's go."
Fangzheng closed the "The Banners of the Eight Fingers" and said.
"Since they're not coming for us, we'll take the initiative to attack."
Although they were taking the initiative to attack, it was impossible to catch all the Eight Fingers in one fell swoop. That was a mission from the kingdom. The person Fangzheng was looking for was a woman named Thelma among the Eight Fingers. She was the person in charge of the slave trade and underground brothels among the Eight Fingers. She was also the culprit who caused Chialei's injury.
As the saying goes, every debt has its debtor. Since Fangzheng was standing up for his sister, he naturally had to find the culprit.
After confirming the target, Fangzheng immediately set off with the others to Thelma's manor on the outskirts of the city.
Unfortunately, when Fangzheng and the others arrived, they found that someone was one step ahead of them.
"No way? Someone's competing with me? "
Looking at the two sides fighting below, Fangzheng was speechless. One of the two sides looked like adventurers. The leader was a petite woman wrapped in a red robe and wearing a mask. Beside him was a female warrior who was even more muscular than a man and wielded a heavy hammer, as well as a girl who looked like a ninja.
Their opponent was a monster dressed in a strange maid costume that looked like a large insect.
"Whoa... that can't be Eight-Finger's leader, right?"
Hui Hui could not help but draw a cold gasp when she saw the crazed attack of the bug monster. Fangzheng shrugged his shoulders.
"Who knows? But according to the usual logic, isn't it normal for the leader of such an underground organization to be a monster? "
"That's true."
While Fangzheng and Hui Hui were talking, the battle seemed to have come to an end. The insect monster was beaten to the ground, and the three adventurers on the other side were also panting and covered in wounds.
"Looks like we won't have a chance to appear here."
Hui Hui couldn't help but grumble, while Fangzheng narrowed his eyes.
"That's hard to say. Look."
"Huh?"
Upon hearing Fangzheng's words, Hui Hui looked at the battlefield in front of her once again. Only then did she realize in surprise that a masked man in a red suit had appeared in front of the bug monster at some point in time.
"That's...."
"A devil, a Higher Devil.... Hmm, the mastermind is a Higher Devil. It's quite fitting for an adventure story."
As he spoke, Fangzheng raised his right hand.
"Are you ready? The three adventurers are no match for this monster. "
"So?"
Hui Hui clenched her staff tightly, her eyes shining.
"So.... it's time for us to appear!"
At the same time, looking at the devil in front of her, the masked girl couldn't help but tremble.
"Run."
"Huh?"
Hearing the masked girl's words, her two companions subconsciously turned to look at her.
"Run! That's not an enemy you can fight! Hurry! I'll buy you some time! "
The other two no longer hesitated. They hurriedly turned around and ran.
But at that moment, the Higher Devil stood up and stared at them.
"It's too sad to part as soon as we meet. Please allow me to keep you here a little longer."
As he spoke, the devil raised his hand.
"Prison Flame Wall!"
As soon as she finished her sentence, the masked young lady saw a streak of fire flash past her. She was shocked when she noticed it.
Not good!
At the same time ….
"Mighty Mother Earth, please bestow upon us the power to stop the invasion of the evil forces! Holy Shield! "
The flame rose into the sky, but it couldn't burn the target. The golden Holy Shield spread out at the critical moment and blocked the terrifying flame.
"Who's there?"
Seeing this, both sides were shocked. They hurriedly looked behind them and saw a priest in a white robe standing not far away with a scepter in his hand. At this moment, she was also panting heavily as she looked forward with a relieved expression.
"You are...."
Seeing the sudden appearance of reinforcements, the masked girl was stunned. She was sure that these people were definitely not from the Royal Army, nor were they her companions!
However, at this moment, the masked young lady saw a young lady wearing a black cloak and a Mage hat beside the Grand Priest. She had already raised her magic staff.
"The one who is entangled by the black flames, curse your fate and lament your death. Scorching flames are about to descend, and everything will be turned into ashes in front of it! "
Along with the young lady's chant, mana began to surge. Upon realizing this, the High Devil's voice suddenly changed.
"This is?!"
"A blow that even the stars can't stop. A blow that will completely destroy everything — Take this! Explosion！”
"Not good!"
Seeing this, the Higher Devil was shocked and hurriedly raised his hand. Then, scorching flames fell from the sky and enveloped him and the insect monster.
"Explosion Magic."
Upon seeing this, the three Adventurers from Cang Qiang's team immediately revealed a look of realization. If they were still doubtful about the identity of these people before, they were now certain that they were the ones who destroyed the Eight-Finger Base. Otherwise, he wouldn't have appeared here at this time.
"Hah.... That felt good."
After releasing the Explosion Magic, Hui Hui once again fell to the ground, while Alice silently stood in front of her.
At the same time, the figures of the Higher Devil and the insect monster appeared in the flames again.
"I didn't expect to meet an unexpected opponent."
The Higher Devil patted his suit and looked up.
"But if that's all you've got …. You can't defeat me."
"Even Explosion Magic …."
Seeing this, the masked girl gritted her teeth and rushed towards the Higher Devil.
"I'll buy you some time. You guys go!"
"Useless struggle."
Looking at the masked girl rushing towards him, the Higher Devil shook his head.
"Devil Forms: Great Devil Giant Fist."
As the Higher Devil chanted in a low voice, his right hand suddenly turned into a huge black fist. Facing the masked girl rushing towards him, the Higher Devil punched out without mercy.
"Ahh!!"
Facing this unavoidable attack, the masked girl gritted her teeth and hurriedly tried to dodge, but she was still sent flying.
"Damage Transfer!"
The masked girl shouted in the air, then landed on the ground again and raised her hand.
"Magic Resistance Breakthrough: Crystal Dagger! “
As the masked girl chanted, a crystal dagger shining with magical light suddenly appeared in her palm and flew towards the Higher Devil in front of her. However, to everyone's surprise, the High Devil didn't even move in the slightest in the face of this attack. In the next moment, the crystal dagger shattered completely in front of the High Devil and disappeared without a trace.
"How can this be?!"
Seeing this, the female warrior and the female ninja widened their eyes in surprise. They were the masked girl's companions, so they naturally knew how powerful she was.
But for the Higher Devil, even this kind of power could not harm him at all?
"Looks like I can only stop here."
As he spoke, the Higher Devil raised his hand.
But at that moment …
"No, this is just the beginning!"
Suddenly, a voice rang out.
"Above!"
Hearing the sudden voice, the Higher Devil hurriedly raised his head. In the night sky, he saw a figure in knight's armor suddenly leaping down. The pitch-black greatsword in his hand was burning with bright red flames, stabbing straight at him!
"Devil Forms: Sharp Broken Claws!"
Facing this sudden attack, the Higher Devil hurriedly raised his hands. His fingernails immediately elongated and turned into sharp weapons comparable to blades. He swung them at the knight in the air!
"Bang!!"
The flaming pitch-black greatsword easily shattered the sharp claws into pieces. Fangzheng, who landed on the ground, swung his sword without hesitation and forced the Higher Devil to retreat.
"I didn't expect to see a Devil in Eight-Finger's base … Well, this can be considered a trap."
Is he the knight in the intelligence report?
The masked girl was shocked to see the knight easily forcing back the Higher Devil that even she was in a difficult battle. Although the masked girl already knew that the knight was very powerful when she learned that he had eliminated the vampire in the Adventurer's Guild, she did not expect him to be even stronger than she imagined.
"Sir Knight!"
Thinking of this, the masked girl hurriedly spoke.
"I'm Iberuai of Blue Rose. As an adventurer, I'm asking for your help! Please help us! "
"Of course, that's why I'm here."
As he spoke, Fangzheng raised his greatsword and pointed it at the Higher Devil in front of him. The Higher Devil stared at Fangzheng, then bowed slightly.
"I didn't expect to meet someone strong enough to force me to retreat here. May I know your name? My name is Adabario. "
Facing the Devil's question, Fangzheng waved his sword.
"I'm the Abyss Watcher, a knight of Faran's Undead Squad, Fangzheng."
Faran's Undead Squad?
Hearing this name, the masked girl and the others were taken aback. This name … They had never heard of it before.
And what's an Abyss Watcher?
"Well then, Sir Knight."
The Higher Devil spoke again.
"I wonder if we can call it a day here? In fact, we're not Eight-Fingered's people. We're actually here to deal with Eight-Fingered just like everyone else, but … we have our own reasons. "
"Oh? Is that so? "
Hearing this, Fangzheng was stunned.
"It's not that I can't let you go, but …"
Looking at the Devil in front of him, Fangzheng thought for a moment.
I'll solve this problem with the orthodox way of a Paladin.
Thinking of this, Fangzheng stretched out his hand.
"Detect Evil."
The next moment, a holy light flashed in front of Fangzheng's eyes. Then, he saw the red and purple glow on the Devil and the insect monster behind him.
"I've decided."
Seeing this, Fangzheng also made a decision. He took a step forward and raised the pitch-black greatsword in his right hand and the silver-white dagger in his left hand.
"Prepare to die."
Before his voice trailed off, Fangzheng's figure flashed and suddenly appeared in front of the Devil. He thrust the pitch-black greatsword in his hand again.
However, the Devil was obviously prepared. The moment Fangzheng moved, he suddenly spread his wings and flew into the air while raising his right hand.
"Nether Strike!"
A dazzling death spell flashed past and struck Fangzheng's body. However, just like how the masked girl's magic had no effect on the Devil, the magic released by the Devil was also easily shattered in front of Fangzheng.
"Magic Nullification? Does he have such high magic resistance? "
Seeing this, the Devil could not help but be shocked. At the same time, Fangzheng also raised his hand.
"That's not how you use magic. Extreme Magic Missile Storm!"
"Devil's Various Forms. Tentacle Wings!"
Faced with the flying magic missiles, the Devil's expression changed slightly. He suddenly spread his wings, followed by countless pitch-black spikes flying down to meet the magic missiles that Fangzheng shot out. Soon, a series of explosions and flames appeared in the sky. At the same time, the Devil quickly turned around, bypassed Fangzheng, and pounced toward the masked girl behind him.
The enemy in front of him could not be defeated directly. With his strength, it would be difficult for him to escape. In this case, he could only grab the hostage and force him to let him go!
A black shadow flashed.
In the blink of an eye, the Devil appeared in front of the masked girl and grabbed her!
Oh no!
Looking at the Devil suddenly appearing in front of her, the masked girl was shocked. Although she had long known that there was a huge difference in strength between her and the Devil, she did not expect the Devil to be so strong when he was serious! In front of him, she did not have the strength to fight back at all!
However, just as the Devil was about to grab the masked girl, suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and grabbed the Devil's wrist.
"Hey, be gentler to girls, Devil."
Since when?
Looking at Fangzheng who appeared beside him, the Devil was taken aback. Then, he clenched his right hand again.
"Devil's Various Forms: Great Devil's Giant Fist!"
Soon, the Devil's right hand turned into a huge fist again and blasted at Fangzheng!
"Sir Knight!"
Looking at Fangzheng who blocked in front of her, the masked girl suddenly screamed. However, facing the sudden punch, Fangzheng only snorted coldly.
"That's all."
Saying that, Fangzheng raised his left hand and clenched it tightly, then blasted a punch.
Compared to the Devil's huge fist, the difference between Fangzheng's fist was like the difference between a basketball and a ping-pong ball. No matter how they looked at it, no one thought that Fangzheng could withstand such a full-powered blow.
However, that was not the case.
Bang!!
The moment the two fists collided, a huge impact mixed with a dull sound erupted, causing the people in the distance to cover their ears involuntarily. Then, they saw the Devil's huge fist shatter like an egg. The skin on his fist, wrist, and arm began to crack, his muscles began to distort, and his bones began to shatter. The powerful impact even penetrated the Devil's body and extended all the way to the manor house behind, completely collapsing it!
"Argh!!!"
Along with a scream, the Devil flew out like a cannonball and crashed into the ruins of the manor house behind.
"Even at this level, he still dares to come out. The Devils these days are getting bolder.
Saying that, Fangzheng picked up his greatsword and slowly walked towards the Insect Monster lying beside him.
"Dimi … Ugoz … Lord …"
At this moment, the insect monster looked at the demon that was blasted into the ruins and desperately tried to stand up. However, before she could do so, the pitch-black greatsword mercilessly pierced through her body and nailed her to the ground.
The next moment, the First Flame erupted.
"Ahhhhhh!!!!"
Along with a scream, the Insect Monster turned into ashes in the flames.
"Okay, one down."
Saying that, Fangzheng turned his head and looked at the Devil who walked out of the ruins again.
"Next, it's your turn."
