Demon King: Hero, don’t run away!

”Naive! Truly too naive!

Don’t think you can stop us with this method.

It’s just a struggle before death.”

The hilt of the blade stomped the ground forcefully, and flaming heat spiraled up from Ammonval’s feet, climbing up his spine.

”What that soldier said earlier, is it all true? Lord Ammonval, what should we do next?” the Messenger Soldier asked.

”First, relay this message back to Lord Demon King.

Then immediately verify which Signal Towers are still usable.

Ensure there are at least three communication routes to constantly contact Lord Demon King.

If there are no problems, we’ll proceed with the original plan.”

Ammonval issued the instruction,

”What he said earlier cannot be ignored. Dispatch Scouts to ascertain the truth!”

”Yes!”

The Messenger Soldier replied forcefully and started acting according to Ammonval’s request.

At the same time, Yang Yu received a contact from Baronaco and He Meng.

Yang Yu’s plans entrusted to them were going smoothly, and Baronaco praised He Meng’s performance:

”You’ve nurtured this Slime excellently; without her, I can’t imagine completing this task so easily.”

Upon receiving Yang Yu’s directive, Baronaco took He Meng, using Flying Magic to bypass the areas the Demon Clan had ravaged, flying towards regions with Signal Towers.

This time, Baronaco was exceptionally cautious.

Once slightly close to places frequented by the Demon Clan, she used Invisibility Magic to completely hide her figure.

When detailed reconnaissance was needed, Baronaco dispatched He Meng, who cleverly transformed into a passing bird, fooling countless demon eyes, observing the Demon Clan’s stationed regions thoroughly.

Through this, Baronaco found the safest route, using the prepared Magic Scrolls to destroy the Demon Clan’s Signal Towers and transmission platforms at the fastest speed.

The Demon Clan didn’t have time to react, nor did they activate the Barrier Magic to protect the Signal Tower and transmission band.

Utilizing her alluring figure, Baronaco escaped the pursuing Demon Soldiers successfully.

”She has achieved her current performance through her own efforts,” Yang Yu smiled broadly, ”Moreover, we are not in a master-servant relationship. She is my partner, just like Bai Jin and the others.”

He Meng straightened her nonexistent chest on Baronaco’s shoulder, basking in satisfaction.

”Whatever you say, you say!

Compared to that, I’m more concerned about whether your plan is reliable.

According to you, I should start acting after seeing that Fox Beastman getting caught.

I don’t know if they will seriously interrogate that Fox Beastman.

Perhaps initially, I should leave some marks on that Fox Beastman...” Baronaco said.

”That’s too dangerous.

If they discover it, they will surely doubt what the Fox Beastman says, causing the plan to fall apart.

Whether the plan succeeds, time will provide the answer.

We’ve already placed Surveillance Magic at several unattended passes.

If they dispatch scouts, we’ll find out soon.

The arrival time of the scouts is yet unknown.”

Yang Yu’s eyes shifted.

In the dim basement, screens of Surveillance Magic unfolded, with Mages from the All Things Library, led by Li Yan, watching the Surveillance Magic intently, afraid of missing any detail.

Yang Yu retracted his gaze and said:

”Rest for a while.

It’s uncertain how long it will take to restore the destroyed Signal Towers and transmission towers.

If we need you to sabotage again, we’ll contact you then.

Baronaco responded softly, then actively severed contact.

Yang Yu focused on handling intelligence from various nations, taking on the advisor duty.

Not all units can complete tasks as effortlessly as Baronaco and He Meng; many blast squads were detected by scouts before formal actions, leading to the exposure of their intentions.

The current success rate is approximately 60%.

Though not high, it’s enough to draw the Demon King Army’s attention, making Ammonval value the intelligence obtained from captives.

Yang Yu couldn’t guarantee the plan’s complete success; he did his utmost, resigning to fate, following the mages, observing the passes, listening to reporting soldiers about anomalies.

Several hours later, Li Yan discovered a group moving stealthily through the West Pass under the cover of night, quickly heading towards East View City.

The group wrapped themselves tightly, and with the dim lighting, it was impossible to discern their appearances.

But Yang Yu knew, the Demon Clan’s Reconnaissance troops had arrived.

Yang Yu swiftly mobilized various teams, preparing to execute a dramatic setup.

And the lead actor of this drama is Blood Lion Wan Huawen.

To persuade Blood Lion Wan Huawen, Yang Yu used all his means, spoke all he could, repeating every point.

Ultimately, Blood Lion Wan Huawen was convinced by Yang Yu saying, ”When necessary, you may truly give up Baihua City. At that time, you and your clansmen might be targeted by the belligerent Ammonval. But if you assist us, you can distract the Demon King Army’s attention, protecting Baihua City from the ravages of war, thus safeguarding your family in another way” and agreed to assist Yang Yu.

Affected by the Magic Tide, the Blood Lion Clan led by Wan Huawen gained significant enhancements.

The Blood Lion Clan’s strength excelled, yet their endurance was not very high.

As long as multiple individuals launch a powerful attack simultaneously, dealing with the Blood Lions is feasible.

And now, influenced by the Magic Tide, the Blood Lion [Bloodbath Lion LV.max] description added a new line: gaining 5% lifesteal for every 10% of maximum Blood Volume lost.

Indeed, though the Blood Lion Clan’s physique remained fragile after enhancement, with this abnormal passive boosting their sustainability, it effectively increased their tanking.

Everyone knows, the real tank in MOBA games isn’t the Iron Turtle, but the adc with lifesteal items; as long as you can’t instantly kill me, I can stand and regenerate my Blood.

Yang Yu had sparred with Wan Huawen, feeling reassured about Wan Huawen’s strength.

The sole concern was the opposing side’s Instant Kill.

After Wan Huawen agreed to assist, Yang Yu personally made a trip, temporarily handing over the [Goddess’s Smile] to him, teaching him the usage to prevent unforeseen events.

After acquiring the tool, Wan Huawen tried it himself, activating [Goddess’s Smile] using only the Blood Power within him without needing to draw it out.

Knowing this ability, Yang Yu was even more determined to have Wan Huawen join the plan.

Upon establishing contact with Wan Huawen, Yang Yu succinctly explained the situation:

”... This is the situation; the opposition has already acted. You and your relocating convoy should act quickly, pretending to secretly move towards East View City.”

”Don’t worry, every word you’ve said is engraved in my mind. After pursuing for a distance, stop appropriately, allowing them to report back.”

Blood Lion Wan Huawen said, then set off as planned by Yang Yu.
