Chapter 1118: Chapter 1088: Surprise Attack on the Demon-controlling Race

The past hour has seen the outside of Ueno City still engulfed in ’billowing flames’.

The struggle between players and the Demon Race has not slackened with the passage of time.

The entire area outside Ueno City has long become an Asura Hell, bodies strewn everywhere, blood flowing freely.

Players revive within the city upon death, and their corpses vanish accordingly.

However, the bodies of the fallen Demon Race and Ueno City’s Guard Team remain fused with the earth forever.

And this is the truest battlefield.

Although the battle continues, anyone with eyes can see the scales of victory tilting towards the players.

The seemingly fierce offensive of the Demon Race cannot advance a step toward the city due to the disparity in strength.

Thanks to over an hour of fighting, the Demon Race has yet to breach the solid defense set by the shield warrior players outside the city.

At the same time, the Demon Race’s offensive is visibly weakening.

With victory in sight, many players inside the city have begun celebrating ahead of time.

However, at this moment on an island to the south of He Clan’s battle zone called "Qi Mountain," lies the territory of the Demon-Controlling Race, one of the three most popular races of the He Clan.

Though it is not the main city of the He Clan battle zone, its prosperity rivals that of a main city.

Furthermore, the wild creatures around Qi Mountain Island range between Lv20 and Lv35, drawing a large amount of popularity here.

Not everyone is a top-tier player, nor can everyone play games twenty-four hours a day.

Coupled with a constant influx of new players.

As a result, players at this stage still make up a significant portion of the total number of players.

While most of the high-level players in the He Clan’s battle zone are fighting the Demon Race at Ueno City, here remains peaceful.

Every street on the island is crowded with people, constantly coming and going.

For players of their level, the war against the Demons is still too distant.

Faced with the Demon Race army, with demon soldiers at least Lv30 and above, they’re unlikely to qualify even as cannon fodder.

Precisely because of this.

Other than shouting slogans on the game forums, they can only continue their leveling efforts, hoping to join the demon-fighting army sooner.

On the outskirts of the island is a Lv35 wild monster zone.

A group of players are teaming up to fight monsters and level up, chatting and laughing about several major events happening in the game.

But just at that moment.

A winged archer talking suddenly stopped abruptly.

The remaining few people all turned their heads in unison:

"What’s wrong, Ichime?"

But before they could see clearly what had happened, as soon as they turned their heads, they felt darkness before their eyes.

By the time this group of players reacted, they were already at the Resurrection Divine Hall in the main city, staring at each other in confusion.

But soon, in the Resurrection Divine Hall, a sudden burst of white light flashed continuously, and countless people walked out from the revival point looking perplexed.

In that brief moment, hundreds of players were killed in the wild.

Everyone showed a look of bewilderment.

Some directly cursed loudly in the noisy Resurrection Divine Hall:

"Who killed me, step out. ."

"Baka, I was killed instantly, who was it."

"I must tear him apart, ah ah ah!"

...

But soon, a player who just appeared at the resurrection point urgently and shockingly shouted:

"Demon Race, so many Demons!!!"

Qi Mountain Island, where the Demon-Controlling Race resides, can be considered one of the favorite leveling spots for He Clan players.

Yet now, players are dying mysteriously one after another.

Many people don’t even know what attacked them, only realizing their death from the system notification.

However, some players still managed to spot the dense army of Demons with dual wings on their backs.

When someone exclaimed they were killed by the Demon Race, the entire resurrection point was in uproar.

Some expressed confusion:

"Aren’t the Demons at Ueno City? Why are they here."

"And they’re all high-level Demons, my goodness."

"Damn. This is no time to ponder this, quickly call for help!!!"

...

In just this short time, the Demon-Controlling Race was already in chaos, cries ringing out:

"Demons are here, run."

"Why are there so many Demons, Baka~ Ah ah ah..."

But the panic of these players, rather than saving them, only further incited the Demons’ killing intent.

The entire small island instantly became a ’playground’ for the Demons, as one player and native fell under the demons’ slaughtering blades.

At this time, there were players, brave and fearless, itching for a fight against the Demons.

But ultimately, they were... mercilessly killed instantly!!

Some clear-headed players immediately advised:

"These Demons are too strong, we are not their match, quickly call the Demon-Controlling Clan Leader."

"Find Hojo Takeshi, call for support."

Just as players were scattered and fleeing in terror from the overwhelming strength of the Demon Race.

Demon King Samael had already appeared outside the tribe of the Demon-Controlling Race, with thousands of Demons (Lv70-Lv79) behind him.

He ignored the panic-stricken players around, instead looking at the tallest building in the tribe, and shouted to the Demons behind him:

"Kill for me!"

With Samael’s words, the impatient and thirsty Demons immediately transformed into killing machines and charged into the crowd:

"Slash!" "Slash!" "Slash!"

"Ah!"

"Run fast."

These low-level players had no room for resistance under the Demons’ slaughtering blades, only instant death awaited them.

The guards of the Demon-Controlling Race, upon seeing this situation, were furious:

"Demon Race, what do you want to do!"

Some Demons instinctively looked towards Samael, while Demon King Samael coldly said:

"Leave no one alive!"

"Bastard!"

A guard from the Demon-Controlling Race immediately sounded the horn in his hand, a rapid "wooing" sound echoing across the entire island.

Someone hurriedly ran toward the Demon-Controlling tribe, shouting:

"Enemy attack!"

"Enemy attack!!"

"Enemy attack!!!"

A Demon-Controlling Elder (Lv71) just poked his head out, not yet having time to speak, suddenly:

"Slash~"

A streak of cold light flashed across his neck, a blood mark suddenly appeared:

"Ugh~"

This elder instinctively dropped his cane, clutching his neck with both hands.

But this action only caused the blood mark to expand rapidly, bright red blood immediately oozing from the old man’s fingers:

"Thud~"

This Demon-Controlling Elder helplessly collapsed to the ground, hands dangling, seemingly lifeless.

Behind him, another Demon King Kamaki licked the sharp dagger in his hand with a face full of enjoyment, exclaiming:

"This is true delicacy, such fresh blood."

At this moment, the Demons had long begun a massacre within the Demon-Controlling Race, all players fleeing in panic.

The natives were not so lucky.

The entire village instantly turned into a human purgatory, the ground littered with dead bodies of the Demon-Controlling Race.

Just then, a shout erupted from within the Demon-Controlling Race:

"Why do this."

Some players unable to escape in time, seeing the towering figure in mid-air, reveled with joy:

"It’s Kabit, the Clan Leader of the Demon-Controlling Race."

"We are saved."

Facing the question from the Clan Leader of the Demon-Controlling Race, Samael replied indifferently:

"The Demon-Controlling Race should have vanished a thousand years ago." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"We’re here this time to retrieve something of the Demon Race, and while we’re at it, we’ll clear you out too."

Upon hearing this, Kabit instantly flew into a rage:

"You don’t keep your promises, you bastard."

Samael laughed heartily upon hearing this, saying:

"Promises?"

"Such naive humans."

Samael suddenly disappeared from where he stood, leaving behind a sentence:

"Kill for me!"
