15: Chapter 15 The Devil's Heart

In the ruins, the Wind Demon lay in a pile of rubble.

His lower body had completely vanished, leaving only his upper body leaning against a broken wall.

The green light in his eyes flickered unsteadily, like a candle in the wind.

[BOSS · Wind Demon (Dying)]

[HP: 2137 / 20000]

He wasn't dead yet.

But he was not far from death.

"Brothers, let's kick him while he's down!"

Shanji roared, raised his already tattered shield, and smashed it hard against the Wind Demon's face.

Bang!

-12!

A pathetic damage number floated up.

The corner of Shanji's mouth twitched.

This was way too pathetic.

But he didn't stop, smashing it down again and again.

"Take that for hitting me! Take that for acting cool! Take that for dodging!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Yang Liu pulled her bowstring taut and shot an arrow into the Wind Demon's chest.

-8!

She didn't care either and continued drawing her bow to shoot.

Li Meng and the mage Liu Jiesen were also out of mana, so they could only use their staves to whack the BOSS.

The four of them surrounded the demon BOSS, outputting damage frantically.

The damage was extremely low, but the insult was extremely high!

The BOSS · Wind Demon was furious. He was a high and mighty demon BOSS, yet he was being besieged by these ants in such a manner.

Humiliation! Absolute humiliation!

In the distance, Lu Yuan couldn't bear to watch anymore.

He walked over with the Slime, which had recovered some of its HP.

The Wind Demon looked at the human in front of him, and fear couldn't help but rise in his heart.

"You... what do you want to do?"

Lu Yuan grinned, his smile kind.

Then he raised his hand and slapped the Slime on its face.

Slap!

A small piece of Slime fell off and stuck to the Wind Demon's chest.

The Wind Demon's pupils shrank suddenly.

"Wind Barrier!"

A gale swept through, condensing into an armor made of wind on the Wind Demon's body.

But it was useless. True Damage ignores all defenses.

Boom!!!

The Wind Demon's body was torn to pieces in the explosion.

He just couldn't figure it out. A Slime, the lowest-ranked Magic Pet.

"Holy shit, that's awesome!"

Shanji and the others turned into fountain commanders, frantically shouting "666".

They didn't know what was up with this Slime. Why was it so powerful!

They just needed to be responsible for shouting "666".

[Killed BOSS · Wind Demon, gained EXP +50000]

[Congratulations, your level has increased to LV.7]

[Congratulations, your level has increased to LV.8 (3%)]

Two dazzling golden lights rose from Lu Yuan's body one after another.

At the same time, golden light also lit up one after another on Shanji, Li Meng, Yang Liu, and Liu Jiesen.

"I... I'm level 6?!"

Shanji widened his eyes in disbelief.

Before entering the Novice Dungeon, he was only level 4. Now, level 6?! One dungeon run, and he leveled up twice?!

The four of them hugged each other tightly, crying and laughing.

"We cleared it!" "The Demon Challenge, we cleared the Demon Challenge!" "Boss, you're awesome!"

Cheers echoed through the ruins. Shanji and the others looked at Lu Yuan, and their gazes had completely changed.

It was the gaze of looking up to a god. From today on, no, from this moment on, Lu Yuan was their god. Their eternal god.

Just then, a brilliant light suddenly lit up in the center of the ruins. As the light faded, several items appeared on the ground.

A long sword with dark purple magic runes, as thin as a cicada's wing. Also, a few magic crystals emitting dense energy fluctuations. And a beating black heart.

[wind-slaying magic sword] [Grade: Epic · Demon Exclusive Drop] [Passive Effect: Wind Sword Soul-Slaying (The lower the enemy's HP, the higher the damage dealt)]

[Wind Demon Crystal × 3] [demon heart: Special item, possesses incredible power.]

Shanji's eyes went straight. "Epic-grade equipment!" He gulped.

During the class advancement season, any piece of epic-grade novice equipment is worth over ten million, and it's priceless!

Lu Yuan directly ignored the equipment and looked at the dropped items.

[Wind Demon Crystal]: After absorption, can slightly increase agility attributes. [demon heart]: Special item, can be used to strengthen equipment and Magic Pet.

Can strengthen Magic Pet?! This is the real good stuff!

... Outside the Novice Dungeon, the atmosphere was suffocatingly heavy. The military professionals responsible for this Novice Dungeon had long since surrounded the entire entrance area.

The crowd watching from afar whispered. "The Demon Challenge... it really is the Demon Challenge!"

"Our Magic City hasn't had one in many years, how did we run into one today?"

"I heard the one who went in is the young master of the Lu family?" "It's over, it's over, the Lu family is going to have no heirs this time..."

"Shh! Keep it down, if you dare speak ill of the Lu family, do you not want to live?"

Before the words faded, a terrifying aura descended from the sky. The ground cracked inch by inch, and a terrifying wave of air swept in all directions.

A brilliant light streaked across the sky, with Li Muyao following closely behind.

The onlookers around turned pale and retreated repeatedly.

"In this situation, City Lord Lu will definitely go crazy." "Stay further away."

Bai Zhi hurried up to meet them. "City Lord, Madam, Young Master hasn't come out yet."

City Lord Lu Feng's blood qi was boiling, his eyes were bloodshot, like a god of slaughter. "Hahaha... Good, good, good, worthy of being my, Lu Feng's, son."

??? Everyone was stunned. Had the City Lord been traumatized, or was his mind not clear?

Your son entered the Demon Challenge, you know? The configuration of Lu Yuan's team couldn't possibly clear the Demon Challenge. People die there.

Li Muyao looked at that pitch-black portal, her eyes still filled with a lot of worry. "The Demon Challenge is too dangerous, we still need to make full preparations."

"I will call a Space Archmage over, ready to tear open the dungeon's spatial barrier at any time and go in to protect Little Yuan."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was numb. Directly summoning a Space Archmage to tear open the spatial barrier? A Space Archmage is the rarest Legendary-grade professional!!

What kind of operation is this? Not to mention having seen it, they hadn't even heard of it.

Just then, a steady voice came from behind. "City Lord Lu, President Li." "Please don't be impulsive, think of the tens of millions of ordinary people in Magic City."
