Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

Releasing his grip, the sparkling Light Arrow shot into the sky, splitting into two, then into four... Within seconds, a single Light Arrow turned into hundreds, forming a dense rain of arrows.

Iyas was using the active skill [Starfall] from the [Meteor Launcher].

The demons within the coverage of the arrow rain hurriedly used skills for defense, but their levels were too low, and their skill strength was insufficient to withstand Iyas’s arrow rain, leaving them pierced one after another.

”They only have one person and one wolf! The humans are not to be feared, concentrate firepower and take them out!”

The high-ranking officers in the army had not yet appeared, so lower-ranking officers could only shout orders, organizing the nearby demons to encircle and destroy Lotcar and Iyas.

The demon troops were well-trained, and in no time, they used skills and various weapons to construct a solid human wall.

However, Lotcar was too massive, and his strength far exceeded the demons’ expectations. Even though the demon soldiers built a human wall and used skills to control Lotcar, he quickly broke free and charged through their lines, continuing to rampage through the demons.

Iyas, seated on Lotcar’s back, was unaffected by the jolts, occasionally drawing her longbow and releasing Holy Light to bombard the nearby demons, assisting the surrounding human soldiers.

The demon officer gritted his teeth, realizing that the two individuals now on the battlefield easily defeated magicians, definitely possessed power above the level of cadre.

Such powerful individuals should be handled by cadres. Forcing an engagement with them would only cause heavy losses to the army.

Have the cadres not noticed the situation here? Logically, such a sudden attack should have immediately caught the attention of the cadres… Why haven’t they shown up?

Even if one cadre had not noticed, there are four cadres nearby; it’s impossible that none have been alerted!

Could it be... that they are preoccupied?? The ones appearing here are not the entire reinforcements but merely a distraction?

Just as the demon officer realized the truth, he sensed a strange flow of magic in the air, and a series of white arrays appeared out of thin air beside the demon troops.

The white arrays unleashed a biting cold wind that swept across. Wherever the wind passed, countless sharp ice cones rapidly sprouted, piercing all the demon soldiers in their path.

The cold wind brushed against his feathered face, and as layers of ice cones stabbed towards him, the crowman-formed demon cadre spread his black wings, dodging to the right and avoiding the sharp ice cones spreading out.

”Ultimately, it was still one step too late.”

When the crowman demon cadre realized that someone was casting a large-scale magic on the troops’ flank, it was already a step too late to stop the release of that magic.

It’s not just him. Most of the demon magicians and guards in the rear had their attention diverted by the giant wolf that suddenly appeared. By the time they noticed someone causing a commotion on their flank, it was too late.

”Sir, Lord Marla is asking you to go over quickly! She’s in some trouble!” A demon soldier hurried to the back of the crowman cadre with black wings and said.

”What trouble? Can’t you see I’m busy here?”

The crowman cadre didn’t turn his head and stared directly in the direction where the magic was released. A human woman holding a magic wand, with roots like ancient tree roots at the tip, stood there, preparing the next spell.

Undoubtedly, she was the initiator of that magic. A plan was needed to stop the next magic while approaching her to utterly eliminate her.

The demon soldier approached the crowman cadre a little closer, meekly whispering:

”It seems... Lord Marla over there has encountered a female assassin, unable to get to the Silver Wolf, and the other cadres are too far from there.

So, therefore, he hopes you can go over and give him a hand...”

The crowman cadre displayed some impatience.

”Isn’t there still...”

Before the crowman cadre could finish, he saw crimson splatter before his eyes, and an orange-glowing sword blade mercilessly pierced through his chest.

In shock, wide-eyed, the crowman cadre turned to look at the demon soldier behind him.

The demon soldier’s body gradually became jelly-like, shrinking quickly to one side, revealing an ordinary face.

Gripping the sword, the black-haired young man revealed a mischievous smile:

”Forgot to inform you, sir cadre. Another cadre just fell by my hand, so there’s no way they can support the other cadre.”

”What?!” The crowman cadre was momentarily unable to comprehend, ”How... how could it happen so fast?”

”Thanks to someone who significantly exhausted him before we arrived here...

If my guess is correct... it would be the general here?

He may have died under your blades, but his efforts were not in vain.”

He Meng detached from Yang Yu, first transforming from a demon ”coat” back into a round Slime, then, in mid-air, morphing into a girl’s form.

Without hesitation, Yang Yu withdrew the sword blade and once more drove towards the crowman’s heart, ending his life.

From the moment Iyas released the Light Arrow, Yang Yu had Bai Jin and the others set into action.

While Iyas and Lotcar diverted the demons’ attention, Yang Yu and Qiuye easily infiltrated the demon ranks, launching attacks while searching for the demon cadre.

Before reaching the battlefield, Yang Yu consciously controlled his blood volume.

Using speed to locate a demon cadre and, operating on the principle of using now to start cooling down, Yang Yu switched [Broken Cocoon Butterfly] to chrysalis form, activated [Fury Blood], and killed the demon cadre with lightning speed using extreme speed.

The damage of [Fury Blood] depends on the extent of lost blood, plus the blood added by the shield, giving Yang Yu nearly five hundred thousand blood. Therefore, [Fury Blood]’s damage escalated dramatically.

Every strike dealt true damage, leaving the wounded and fragile demon cadre unable to withstand.

Upon executing a demon cadre, Yang Yu retreated from the battlefield with incredible speed, letting He Meng cover his body, transforming into the demon soldiers’ appearance around him.

The demon soldiers beside the fallen cadre knew that Yang Yu was the one who ran out, but their message-relaying speed was far too slow compared to Yang Yu’s movement speed.

The soldiers who saw Yang Yu later didn’t think he was human, only thought ”this guy runs so fast, could he be a messenger soldier? Running so fast, no wonder he’s a messenger soldier,” without suspecting Yang Yu’s identity.

This entire setup gave Yang Yu the opportunity to sneak attack, enabling him to unleash maximum output when the demon cadre let his guard down.

When Yang Yu drew the sword blade, the crowman cadre fell to the ground, and only then did all the demons present realize that Yang Yu was not a messenger soldier but an enemy!

”Despicable person, winning by sneak attack! Die!”

The demons around Yang Yu roared and rushed forward, launching an attack on him.
