222: This isn't about slaying demons and monsters; it's clearly retirement life!

A bloody stream of light tore through the sky above Donghai City.

It landed with meteor-like precision at the headquarters of the Donghai City Psionic Bureau.

Chen Nian revealed his figure from the blood-colored light and walked straight into the main hall of the headquarters.

For him, today's battle in Shanyin City was less of a life-or-death struggle and more of a refreshing warm-up exercise.

Although the Evil God Incinerator was strong, under the coordination of his seventh-tier Prison Suppressing Divine Body and numerous powerful skills, he was ultimately unable to escape the fate of being crushed.

Returning to the Donghai City Psionic Bureau at this moment, he felt as relaxed and comfortable as if he had just returned from a vacation.

He did not hesitate at all; he first went to the bathroom to take a quick hot shower, washing away the murderous aura brought by the battle.

Then, he changed into clean casual clothes, went to the cafeteria, and had a satisfying meal.

After that, he returned to his dormitory.

"Bang."

The door closed gently, completely isolating the noise and admiration of the outside world.

Chen Nian leaned back and sank comfortably into the soft bed.

"Huu—!"

He let out a long sigh of relief.

An indescribable feeling of comfort and fulfillment spread from his limbs and bones, finally gathering in his heart.

It must be said.

The feeling of having gone through a fierce battle, crushing a powerful enemy, and reaping a full harvest, then washing away the dust, eating a hearty meal, and finally lying down leisurely, was truly extremely refreshing!

Where was this risking one's life to slay demons and eradicate evil? This was clearly an interesting and exciting retirement life.

He habitually picked up the personal terminal on the bedside table and unlocked the screen, wanting to see if there was any new news or intelligence.

However, as soon as the interface opened, a dense series of information push notifications began to "ding-dong."

The top of the screen was instantly filled with pop-ups from various news apps and social media notifications.

【Breaking! The Night Parade of a Hundred Demons in Shanyin City has undergone a shocking change! Live footage leaked!】

【Emergency! Shanyin City has encountered a large-scale riot of Demonic Evils, and the defense line was once in critical condition!】

【The bloody stream of light descends again! The god of war of donghai turns the tide, and Shanyin City is out of danger!】

【An unknown terrifying existence has appeared deep in the Guyin Mountain Range, and the energy explosion is comparable to a natural disaster!】

As expected, news related to the "Night Parade of a Hundred Demons" incident in Shanyin City had already fermented on the Internet, triggering a monstrous wave.

Chen Nian casually clicked on the video link with the highest popularity.

The photographer seemed to be on a high-rise building, quite a distance away from the battlefield, and the picture was shaking a bit.

But one could still clearly see the light screen of the defense line constructed by light blue energy below, being frantically impacted by the Demonic Evils like a black tide.

The light screen fluctuated violently, flickering on and off, as if it would shatter in the next second.

The background sound was filled with the whistling of spiritual energy beams, the crazy roars of Demonic Evils, and the desperate shouts and screams of Spiritual Energy Bureau Agents.

An atmosphere of despair and panic permeated through the screen.

The barrage and comment section had already exploded:

"My god! Is this the Night Parade of a Hundred Demons in Shanyin City? How could this happen?! Didn't it just used to be some wandering ghosts that would disperse after walking through the motions in previous years?"

"Yeah, although there were many Demonic Evils in previous years, most of them were low-level wandering ghosts. They were not very aggressive and almost never attacked people! What happened this year?"

"It's too scary! Look at those Demonic Evils, they are like crazy!"

People's worry and fear almost overflowed the screen; obviously, they were frightened by this sudden, terrifying scene that far exceeded their cognition of previous years.

However, just as this atmosphere of despair reached its peak—

A strange, bloody stream of light suddenly intruded into the camera's field of view at a speed beyond human understanding!

The next second!

"Rumble—!!!"

The video screen was instantly filled with endless purple thunder!

The majestic heavenly might made people tremble even through the screen and the long distance!

The Evil Spirit Army that had been surging like a tide and making people despair just a moment ago, in this violent sea of thunder, instantly evaporated and vaporized like ice and snow under the sun!

In just one breath, the Demonic Evils within the camera's range were wiped clean, leaving only scorched earth and curling blue smoke.

The barrage first fell into a brief silence, and then exploded in an even more violent posture:

"It's Special Commissioner Chen! It's the god of war of donghai! He's here!!"

"Oh my mom! This thunder technique! Too handsome! Too strong!"

"Instant kill! Completely an instant kill! Such a terrifying Demonic Evil tide just now, and it's gone in an instant?"

"Wuwuwu, thank you, Special Commissioner Chen!"

"The Spiritual Energy Bureau is great! They stood up at the first time! And Special Commissioner Chen! They are too handsome!"

"Fortunately, there is Special Commissioner Chen! Fortunately, there is the Spiritual Energy Bureau! Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable!"

"Long live Special Commissioner Chen! Long live the Spiritual Energy Bureau!"

Praise and gratitude poured in like a tide, interspersed with admiration for the heroic fighting of the Spiritual Energy Bureau Agents.

Chen Nian swiped the screen casually, and many videos from different angles and locations appeared later.

Some were of the bloody stream of light passing by, with countless red threads appearing out of thin air, cutting the Demonic Evils into pieces.

Some were of green energy beams exploding, like powerful missiles, bombing large areas of Demonic Evils.

Some were of a Dragon roar that shook the soul, causing masses of Demonic Evils to explode and die...

That bloody stream of light, with the strength of one person.

Like a firefighter, shuttled at high speed between the various defense lines on the outskirts of Shanyin City.

Wherever it passed, the Demonic Evils collapsed and the crisis was resolved.

However, in addition to these videos of the outer defense lines.

There were also some taken from a longer distance, scenes from deep within the Guyin Mountain Range.

The video screen shook violently, and one could only see the distant horizon dyed into an ominous dark red.

Huge, blurry fire phantoms loomed in the clouds.

Immediately after, two powerful energies erupted and collided.

Blinding light erupted, and even from a long distance, the lens was instantly overexposed.

Subsequently, a powerful shockwave came.

The clouds dispersed, the glass shattered, and even the earth trembled violently.

The photographer let out a painful grunt, obviously affected by that terrifying pressure.

The comment section below also exploded.

"What is that?! What exactly happened inside the Guyin Mountain Range?"

"What a scary aura! I feel like I can't breathe even from so far away!"

"It's Special Commissioner Chen! He must be fighting a bigger guy!"

"My god, this movement... it's a hundred times scarier than the Demonic Evils cleaned up on the periphery just now!"

"What's going on with this year's Night Parade of a Hundred Demons? First, the Demonic Evils rioted, and now this level of monster has appeared?"

"How strong is the enemy that Special Commissioner Chen is facing... exactly?"

People were shocked, confused, and also full of lingering fear and relief.

Last time, the Abyssal Devourer descended.

It mainly happened in the different space opened by the Evil God Cult, so the outside world's perception was limited.

But this time, the Incinerator descended directly on the outskirts of Shanyin City and fought fiercely with Chen Nian in the real world.

The movement caused was comparable to a natural disaster, and it was hard to hide even if one wanted to.

This also allowed ordinary people to intuitively and remotely feel for the first time.

What kind of terrifying existence the enemy Chen Nian faced was.

At the same time, they also realized more profoundly how lucky it was to have such a powerhouse guarding them.

Chen Nian looked at these comments, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

This feeling of being recognized and relied upon was not bad.

Especially seeing that the points had ushered in a wave of rapid growth due to this incident, as well as people's heartfelt gratitude and understanding of the Spiritual Energy Bureau's work.

It made him feel that this trip was very worthwhile.

However, his heart did not have too many waves because of this.

Although the Incinerator had been executed, the threat was far from lifted.

Through the briefly opened abyss crack, he clearly perceived.

Deep in the Gloomy Abyss, there was definitely more than one Evil God-level existence dormant.

The tyrannical aura he vaguely captured at that time was at least five, or possibly more.

This was both a huge threat and an excellent opportunity!

More Evil Gods meant more points, stronger skills, and faster improvement speed!

And what he had to do now was to continue to become stronger.

Be fully prepared for the upcoming, more intense battle.

Crush all known and unknown enemies with absolute power.

Thinking of this, Chen Nian's eyes became sharp, and there was no fear in his heart, but rather full of expectation.

He no longer hesitated, his thoughts moved, and the azure System panel quietly unfolded before his eyes.

Looking at the long string of shocking numbers in the points column, a satisfied color flashed in Chen Nian's eyes.

His points broke the two-million mark, only one step away from the three-million mark.

This harvest far exceeded any previous operation.

Sure enough, high risk is accompanied by high return.

However, now is not the time to think about these.

Now, it is time to transform these points into real strength!
