Chapter 159: Chapter 142: Conquering the Giant Demon City, Reinforcements?

In the very next moment, the Silver Dragon Warrior raised her Giant Sword and lunged at the Giant Demon City Lord in a blinding flash.

The Giant Demon City Lord was the only being in Farm City with power comparable to Tier Nine.

Faced with Angelina’s attack, he instinctively drew a Giant Axe and raised it to defend himself.

"BOOM!!!"

The clash of metal rang out.

Just like the two High Tier Giant Demons before him, the City Lord was brutally smashed into the ground!

"Damn it! Such Power... How can the gap between us be this huge!"

"No! You’re no Human Professional from this world! The aura of your Power is completely different from theirs!"

The Giant Demon City Lord shot out from the crater and back into the sky, swinging his Giant Axe at Angelina as he roared!

Of course, this time he didn’t speak in the human tongue of the Carter Continent, but instead transmitted his voice using Spiritual Power.

However, Angelina remained coolly indifferent to the Giant Demon City Lord’s counterattack and roar.

As the Giant Axe cleaved toward her, Angelina simply sidestepped, letting it pass her by.

A brilliant silver light then streaked across the sky, an upward slash that sliced even the clouds in two.

A moment later, the Giant Demon City Lord turned back.

But he could no longer utter a sound.

He stared at the silver-haired Angelina, his expression filled with defiance. He wanted to roar, but blood was already pouring from his mouth.

The blood choked him, and in the end, he could only manage two gurgling sounds.

Then, in the next moment, his corpse, sliced diagonally in two from chest to abdomen, fell to the ground.

"Surrender!!! We surrender!!!"

The Giant Demon City Lord’s death struck terror into the hearts of the few High Tier Giant Demons who were still fighting.

And so, as the High Tier Magical Beasts hunted them down, two of the Giant Demons immediately sent out telepathic cries for mercy.

The High Tier Magical Beasts were completely unmoved by their pleas!

Surrender during a battle could rarely be trusted. Even if they were to accept, the Demon Beasts would first have to beat the Giant Demons half to death and then selectively take them captive!

The battle raged on.

The Middle-High Tier Giant Demons were all trying to escape as hordes of Demon Beasts swarmed into the city.

The Middle-Low Tier Magical Beasts began hunting down the common Giant Demon soldiers within the city, while other Demon Beasts, following orders, were immediately dispatched to secure the Human slave camps.

The Human slaves were a precious future asset for Dawn City; they couldn’t be devoured by the Demon Beasts at will.

The entire battle was over so quickly!

From the moment the Demon Beast army appeared to the complete destruction of Farm City’s Magic Barrier, less than half an hour had passed.

The High Tier Magical Beasts didn’t even enter the city. Aside from the flying types that pursued the High Tier Giant Demons, the rest immediately formed a perimeter outside, cutting off any possible escape route for the Giant Demons.

What followed was the Demon Beasts’ purge of the entire city.

This process took about two hours.

By now, data for the Giant Demon’s Farm City had appeared in Lince’s field of vision.

[Farm City] (Occupied, Public Information)

[Ruler: Giant Demon Empire]

[Giant Demon Population: Approx. 120,000]

(Includes surrounding villages and towns affiliated with this city)

[Human Population: Approx. 230,000]

(Includes surrounding villages and towns affiliated with this city)

[Combat Force Composition: 8 High Tier Giant Demons, 47 Middle Tier Giant Demons, 563 Low Tier Giant Demons. Commoners not included.]

(Current Status: Of the eight High Tier Giant Demons, six are dead and two are heavily wounded captives. Dozens of Middle and Low Tier Giant Demons have been captured alive. A thousand common Giant Demons have been taken prisoner.)

Lince looked at the panel.

A slight smile touched Lince’s lips.

’Impressive results. Capturing two High Tier Giant Demons isn’t bad. Maybe now I can extract some more information from them.’

’As for capturing so many Middle-Low Tier and even common Giant Demons...’

’...that was actually part of another plan of mine.’

’I don’t necessarily have to kill all the Giant Demons.’

’For one, I can leave them for the Players. For another, I can capture some of their young alive and raise them as Giant Demon slaves for Dawn City. These guys are probably better suited for hard labor than the Human Race.’

’After all, they’re big and sturdy. Besides, if I raise them well, I can use them later for the Demon Hunter Professionals to farm experience, pitting them against the hunters like Combat Beasts. That’s not a bad idea, either.’

At present, the Middle-Low Tier Magical Beasts were mowing down the Giant Demon Legion in the city like they were cutting grass. Though they suffered some casualties, the slaughter allowed these naturally ferocious Demon Beasts to vent the frustration they felt from being ’penned up’ for so long.

However, most of the slain Giant Demon soldiers died while trying to flee the city.

Almost all of them were cut down in droves by the High Tier Magical Beasts.

Of course, some were torn to shreds by the thirty thousand Tierless Demon Beasts on the outermost perimeter, more than ten kilometers away from the Giant Demon Farm City.

As for the dead Giant Demons, they were a rare source of good food for the Demon Beasts.

The Giant Demon corpses from this city alone would be enough to feed Dawn City’s current Demon Beast population for at least three to five months.

Lince took in the entire scene.

At the same time, several Human Players were also witnessing everything unfold.

When the Demon Beasts attacked, one of these Human Players had even secretly climbed to the top of the highest clock tower in the Giant Demon City.

This was a Level Seven Player, still Tierless.

To have reached Level Seven inside the city, it was clear this guy must have secretly killed a good number of commoner Giant Demons.

He had only managed to avoid the previous Inference Day search by hiding in the sewers the whole time.

This Player witnessed the entire battle from start to finish.

Right now, back on Blue Star, a Player was practically vibrating with excitement in front of his computer, shouting that he’d hit the jackpot.

"Holy cow! I just found out the Chief was somewhere near me, and the moment I logged in, I saw the Demon Beasts attacking the city!"

"This footage is just... it’s making my blood boil!"

"Good thing I recorded the whole thing. This is totally going to go viral when I post it, right?"

"And what’s more, does this mean I can join up with the Chief now? Total win!!!"

Back in the game, the Player had been screen-recording the whole time. In his excitement, however, he had been spotted by a Flying Demon Beast.

However, the Flying Demon Beast only stared at him warily and didn’t attack.

The Player had anticipated this. He even blew a kiss at the Flying Demon Beast, which earned him a look from the creature as if it were staring at a complete lunatic.

The two-hour-long siege was over.

But half an hour after they started cleaning up the battlefield, Lince still hadn’t received the completion reward.

Just as he was beginning to find it strange, he finally understood the reason why.

Because far in the distance, beyond Giant Demon Farm City, three terrifying streaks of light were hurtling toward them from the horizon.

Their speed was so immense that even the surrounding clouds were being blasted apart in their wake!
