Inside a dense, primitive forest, the Demon players watching from a distance were stupefied when they saw the Demon patrol squad's corpses turn into a sea of EXP.
"Who are those people?"
The Demon players were both shocked and curious as they stared at the Shifeng's group.
The Demon patrol squad was an extremely sturdy defensive barrier leading to Demon City. Not only did they possess many powerful Skills and Spells, but they could also fight as a team. They were completely different from ordinary Demon monsters.
Yet, before the Shifeng's group, the Demon patrol squad was no different from an ordinary monster.
If not for the Demon patrol squad dropping a pile of items and the purple-gold glow radiating from some of the Infernal Legion's experts, they would've suspected that the Demon patrol squad before them was fake.
"Leader, are we still going to wait for the other large adventurer teams?" a Level 105, Tier 2 Ranger asked the Tier 3 Assassin leading the team.
Not even the large adventurer teams would have an easy time dealing with the Demon patrol squad. Once the Demon patrol squad was annihilated, the Demon patrol squad would receive very little credit. Yet, they still had to follow the Shifeng's group until the other large adventurer teams arrived.
Although they were Demon players, their perception range was very far from human players. If they were discovered, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Wait! Demon's Heart is offering an extraordinarily high bounty this time. Even if we only get 10% of the bounty, we'll still get one Demon Crystal for each Demon we kill. As long as we collect 120 Demon Crystals, we'll be able to challenge the city for a noble title. If we rely on ourselves to grind for Demon Crystals, who knows how long it'll take us to collect that many Demon Crystals? " The Tier 3 Assassin said confidently. "Of course, we'll have to be careful and maintain a certain distance from these people. We don't have to follow them; we just need to follow the tracks they leave behind."
The Demon players nodded in agreement with the Assassin's words. They agreed with their leader's suggestion.
Demon players already had extraordinary perception of human players. If they simply followed the Shifeng's group, no matter how powerful the Shifeng's group was, they wouldn't be able to detect them.
However, as soon as the Tier 3 Assassin finished speaking, a cold, sharp dagger suddenly pierced the Assassin's chest, and a critical damage of over -900,000 appeared above the Assassin's head.
Before the Assassin could say anything, a snow-white dagger slashed the Assassin's neck, taking away the Assassin's last bit of HP.
"Leader?!"
The five Tier 2 Assassin's team members were stupefied.
What was going on?
A second ago, he was still alive and kicking, dreaming about his future, but in the next second, he was dead …
This was a Tier 3 Assassin they were talking about. Even in Demon City, he would be a famous expert, yet he had died so suddenly.
As the leader collapsed to the ground, the members of Team Devil finally saw a woman with a sexy figure emerge from behind him.
"An Assassin?"
"We've been discovered!"
"Run!"
By the time the remaining five Demon players realized what had happened, the woman with a seductive figure had disappeared like a ghost once more.
When the female Assassin reappeared, she was already standing beside the five Demon players. Immediately afterward, a streak of white light slashed across the five Demon players, dealing over -1,000,000 damage and devouring all five of their HPs …
"How foolish! She radiates such dense Mana! She's practically a beacon in the dark! How dare she follow us? " Fire Dance could not help but shake her head when she saw the dazed expressions on the Demon players' faces. She couldn't help but think that these Demon players were playing a joke on her.
However, what Fire Dance didn't know was that, at this stage of the game, Tier 3 players were still exploring the use of Tier 3 Skills and Spells, not to mention more advanced Mana control.
"Guild Leader, we've cleared out the surrounding Demon players," Fire Dance reported to Xiang Shifeng after confirming that there were no players' Mana fluctuations around them.
"Good. Continue to stand guard. If there are too many Demon players, have the Infernal Legion's Assassins move in as well," Shifeng said, nodding. At the same time, he couldn't help but look at the loot the Demon patrols had dropped.
Initially, he had thought that the Demon patrols wouldn't drop anything good. Just like the NPCs in towns and cities, they wouldn't drop anything good even if they killed them.
However, he hadn't expected the Demon patrols to drop such good loot.
Although the Demon patrols hadn't dropped any good weapons or equipment, only some standard Level 110-plus Secret-Silver and Fine-Gold Set Equipment, they had actually dropped Dark Magic Gold.
Dark Magic Gold was an extremely rare Epic material. Not only could it increase the production success rate of weapons and equipment, but it also had a chance of imbuing the material with the Power of Darkness. It was a forging material that all Master Forgers dreamed of obtaining.
Yet, Shi Feng had actually obtained as many as 14 pieces of Dark Magic Gold from the patrol team. If the Master Forgers of his previous life found out about this, they would've most likely exterminated the Demon patrols …
However, compared to Shifeng's joy, the Infernal Legion's members were ecstatic.
Not only did these Demons provide a ton of EXP, allowing them to level up rapidly, but fighting these Demons also allowed them to improve their understanding of Mana control.
Although these Demons' Mana control wasn't as good as NPCs', it was still much better than monsters'.
Normally, they could only fight monsters. It was practically impossible for them to fight NPCs. Now, however, they could fight Demons on par with NPCs. This was an opportunity that they could only dream of.
Seeing this, Infernal Legion's members, who hadn't been particularly interested in visiting Demon City, grew more enthusiastic.
For a time, Infernal Legion's members didn't try to avoid the Demon patrols that even the various superpowers' experts feared. Instead, they actively searched for these Demon patrols …
Meanwhile, in the Burning Forest's inner region, a 1,000-man team was besieging a Level 110 Mythic Boss's monster nest.
Although this team only consisted of 1,000 players, over 80 of them were Tier 3 players. Not even first-rate Guilds had such a team. Moreover, the several players leading the team managed to suppress the Level 110 Mythic ranked Boss without the help of any other players. This gave the rest of the team a chance to deal with the Grand Lord and Great Lord that had just arrived.
"Good! We've suppressed the monsters! All Tier 3 players, focus fire on the Boss! " A Level 108, valiant man in black robes and wielding a golden staff shouted as he fought the Mythic Boss.
At this valiant man's command, the 80-plus Tier 3 experts on the team focused their attacks on the Mythic Boss. In less than seven minutes, the Mythic Boss, which everyone feared at this stage of the game, fell to the ground and dropped a pile of items.
The large number of items the Mythic Boss dropped made the independent teams watching from afar envious. However, none of them dared to try and steal the loot.
After all, the team before them was one of the several large adventurer teams in Demon City that were second only to the city's two large Guilds. If anyone dared to try and steal the loot, they'd have to give up all hope of surviving in Demon City.
"Commander, Black Blindman just sent word that Demon's Heart's bounty has arrived." A Level 107, Tier 3 Assassin respectfully approached the valiant man and reported in a low voice.
"They're already here?" The valiant man chuckled. "Notify everyone. We'll head over immediately. That Black Blindman is very cunning. He must've notified more than one Guild. If we're too late, we'll lose everything."
"However, according to Black Blindman's report, those people are very strong. They even had the upper hand against the Demon patrol team," the Tier 3 Assassin said.
"If they can hold the upper hand against the Demon patrol team, they must be quite strong. It's no wonder why Demon's Heart offered such an astronomical bounty," the valiant man said, nodding. "Where are those people now?"
He was very familiar with the Demon patrol team's strength. An ordinary 100-man team of Tier 3 players was no match for the team. The fact that they could hold the upper hand proved that they were very strong.
"I don't know …" the Tier 3 Assassin said awkwardly.
"Black Blindman didn't follow them?" the valiant man asked curiously.
He knew Black Blindman very well. Not only was he very strong, but he was also very cunning. He was one of the top Assassins in Demon City.
"He … is already dead," the valiant man said, shaking his head.
