301: Chapter 301 The Devil Descends

As time passed, Truman's group clearly fell into a disadvantage.

Nie Ning couldn't help but fix his gaze on the warehouse behind Truman.

According to what Saya had said, Truman's skill at escaping was top-tier.

It clearly didn't make sense that he hadn't fled yet, despite being at a disadvantage.

Moreover, the tyrannical aura within the warehouse was growing thicker, as if something terrible was about to happen.

As a top-tier Rank Four, Amelia naturally noticed this unusual occurrence as well.

“What are you doing?!”

Sensing the problem, Amelia split an incoming shadow ball with her whip and questioned him sharply with a solemn expression.

“Isn't it a bit late to notice the problem now?”

The corners of Truman's mouth curled up slightly, his words full of mockery.

As Truman's voice fell, a faint dark-red light projected out from the warehouse.

‘Buzz buzz...’

At that moment, the sound of wings flapping came from the warehouse, and a tyrannical aura gushed out from within.

“This is...”

A look of astonishment appeared on Amelia's face.

A humanoid creature crawled out; it had two horns on its head, bat wings, dark-red skin, and a black tail.

“A demon! You actually dared to summon a demon!”

Seeing the creature clinging to the warehouse wall, Amelia couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

“Hehehe...”

Truman let out a strange laugh: “You've been hunting me for so many days; this is just a small gift for you.”

In an instant, countless low-level Lesser Demons flew out of the warehouse, blotting out the sky as they scattered in all directions.

Seeing this, Amelia stepped forward, wanting to intercept them.

After all, there were many ordinary people in the city; if the demons were allowed to leave, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But just then, a massive spiked club flew out from the direction of the warehouse, smashing straight toward Amelia.

Amelia swung her long whip, wrapping it around the spiked club and flinging it aside.

“Hahaha, the scent of this world is still so wonderful.”

Accompanied by a coarse, booming laugh, a four-meter-tall gray-skinned minotaur crashed through the warehouse wall and stepped out.

A Rank Five Abyssal Bull Demon!

With every step the Bull Demon took, its hooves left a patch of reddish-brown flame on the ground.

Amelia's face was filled with a look of bitter solemnity.

If the Bull Demon before her was Rank Five, then it must have been at least Rank Six or higher previously!

Suddenly, Amelia's expression shifted slightly, and her body quickly dodged to the left.

At the same time, a ball of reddish-brown fire smashed into the spot where she had just been standing.

She shifted her gaze to the roof of the warehouse, where a black goat-headed monster stood, about three meters tall with winding long horns and a strange gray wooden staff.

A Black Goat Demon!

Amelia's heart sank slightly; another Rank Five creature!

“Amelia, just surrender. If you are willing to serve me, perhaps I can spare your life, hehehe...”

Truman sized Amelia up wantonly, the wretched smile on his face making it look as if victory was already in his grasp.

Suddenly, the sound of a whistling gale appeared behind Truman.

Before Truman could react, the massive spiked club slammed into the left side of his body, sending him flying directly.

Under the immense force, Truman smashed through several small sheds in succession, finally tumbling into a pile of rubble with his face covered in blood.

“Your laugh is truly unpleasant!”

The Bull Demon spat on the ground with a look of disgust.

“Wh... Why...”

Truman struggled to lift his head, looking at the Bull Demon in disbelief as he asked.

He was clearly the one who had summoned these abyssal creatures; he didn't understand why they were attacking him.

At this time, the Black Goat Demon leaned on its staff and walked slowly to the Bull Demon's side, speaking with a look of disdain: “She is a prime sacrifice; do you think you are worthy of enjoying her?”

“Haha, let the carnival begin!”

The Bull Demon laughed loudly and pointed its spiked club forward, sending a large number of Lesser Demons sweeping out in all directions.

Not only the Transcendents of the Yishi Mansion, but even the Transcendents Truman had brought were within their attack range.

Seeing this, the Transcendents from the Yishi Mansion on the field couldn't help but look grim.

“This can't go on. Activate the Red-Gold Demon-Trapping Barrier!”

Amelia shouted, her left hand condensing a ball of light.

As the ball of light burst, a surge of intense light erupted from it, blinding all the demons so that they couldn't open their eyes from the sudden strike.

By the time the white light dissipated, the Transcendents of the Yishi Mansion had already surrounded the warehouse.

When the Formation Plates in their hands lit up, streaks of golden light shot into the sky, forming a massive pentagonal cage of light that enveloped the warehouse.

But although it blocked most of the demons, quite a few Lesser Demons still managed to escape.

“You think you can stop us?”

The Bull Demon was expressionless as its massive spiked club smashed against the barrier.

The entire barrier shook violently under the blow.

“Hmph! It's true we can't stop you, but we only need to stall you!”

Amelia snorted coldly, the intense light surrounding her body repelling the Lesser Demons.

Immediately after, a token flew out from her spatial ring, and Amelia used the transmission token to send a message to nearby Yishi Mansion Transcendents.

Seeing this, the Black Goat inside the barrier moved its mouth, uttering a strange language.

The Lesser Demons that had escaped seemed to receive an order; they stopped attacking the five people maintaining the barrier and instead flew toward the city.

“Haha, once the Bloodthirsty Demon Array is complete and the suppression of the world's power is gone, I'll see what you have left to resist us!”

The Bull Demon said with a wild laugh, even stopping his attacks on the barrier.

It was as if, to him, this was a battle that was already won.

Amelia's face was grim, but she was currently tied down and simply didn't have the capacity to stop the Lesser Demons from leaving.

...

“Lord Belen, aren't you going to help...”

Nie Ning, who was watching the show, turned his head only to find to his shock that Belen had left at some unknown point.

“What's the meaning of this?”

Nie Ning's eyes widened, the corner of his mouth twitching slightly.

Seeing the Lesser Demons about to escape, Nie Ning fell into a dilemma.

He didn't know where Belen had gone, nor did he know if the other party would go to stop the Lesser Demons.

But once the Lesser Demons swarmed into the city, it would undoubtedly be a natural disaster for the ordinary people.

And while Lesser Demons were only the lowest level of demons, they could grow by consuming flesh and blood, and their growth rate was extremely fast.

Once a Lesser Demon completed its transformation, it was very likely that other types of demons of Rank Four or higher would appear.

Nie Ning sighed: “Sigh, I'll just consider this as the advertising fee.”

As the Heavenly Universe Holy Wings appeared on his back, Nie Ning turned into a streak of light and shot into the sky.

Nie Ning's speed was incredibly fast; everywhere he passed, the Lesser Demons were torn to shreds, and for a time, the sounds of successive explosions echoed through the night sky.

“Bronk?!”

Amelia looked at the figure slaughtering the Lesser Demons, a look of bewilderment appearing in her eyes.

Although she had long sensed someone hiding nearby, she never expected it would be Bronk.
