Volume 1 The Wind Rises Chapter 24 Night Attack
"Brother Gao, how many wolf demons are this?"
Ye Chen glanced at the wolf demon whose breath was cut off on his side, and his gaze slowly fell on the broken knife.
I don't know when this Xuan-rank mortal demon slaying knife has been broken to only one-third of it.
Not far behind him, Gao Chong used a dagger to cut open the heart of a wolf demon who died tragically, and while taking out the spirit core, he took out a small notebook from his arms and turned to the last page.
After casually using the residual blood stained on the tip of the dagger to fill in the last horizontal of the seventeenth word "Zheng", he looked up at Ye Chen.
Behind the boy there were three undissected wolf demon corpses.
"Plus these three, huh...... Eighty-eighth. ”
Putting the spirit core into the storage bag around his waist, Gao Chong stood up and wiped the blood from his face.
From nightfall to the present, relying on the glimmer of the moonlight, Ye Chen has followed the long forest path and killed eighty-eight mutated wolf demons along the way.
"If you join the Demon Suppression Division, this amount should be enough."
After looking around and confirming that there was no danger, Ye Chen used the broken knife to cut open the hearts of the last three wolf demons, took out the spirit core, and walked in front of Gao Chong.
He glanced at the bulging storage bag on Gao Chong's waist, and smiled lightly: "It's hard work, big brother." ”
"It's not hard, it's hard to pick up leaks!"
Gao Chong took the three spirit cores handed over by Ye Chen, put them in the storage bag, patted them, and said with a smile: "This number, I'm afraid that half of the wolf demon group has been slaughtered by Ye Chen, brother, if you want me to say, it's no problem for the two of us to join the Demon Town Division together!" ”
"But ......"
Restricting his smile, a trace of confusion appeared on the face of the man with the giant sword on his back.
Ye Chen is observant.
At the moment of noticing the subtle changes in Gao Chong's face, the young man asked, "What's wrong?" ”
"Something is wrong." Gao Chong turned around and looked at the road that had been bleeding all the way, "Along the way, we killed eighty-eight wolf demons, but we didn't see a team of demon slayers, it's very wrong!" ”
"When Brother Gao said this, not only did we not seem to have encountered a team of demon slayers, but these wolf demons were also very strange, and they took the initiative to attack us one after another!"
Ye Chen frowned slightly, and Gao Chong's words were also right for his doubts.
After killing the leader of the second-order wolf demon and witnessing the sorrow of the demon slayer as a pawn of the Demon Suppression Division, Ye Chen decided to change the status quo for these low-level people with unfair fate.
This is a traverser from another civilized world, under the influence of higher education, the obsession in his heart.
According to Gao Chong, under the bounty order of the Demon Slaying Conference in previous years, the demon slayer who killed the largest number of mutated demon beasts would get a chance to join the Demon Suppression Division while obtaining the Imperial Honor Badge.
Since only by joining the Demon Suppression Division can you change the fate of the demon slayer.
Ye Chen resolutely decided to take the initiative to attack, grab ahead of all the demon slayer teams, and hunt the most wolf demons.
However, as soon as the sun set down, these wolf demons hidden in the depths of the mountain range seemed to be attracted by some special smell, and they formed groups of three or five to launch a night attack on Ye Chen and Gao Chong.
But that's not surprising.
What puzzled Ye Chen the most was that he had not seen any team of demon slayers after being slaughtered all the way!
"The wolf demon took the initiative to attack us because of the spirit core of the second-order wolf demon leader."
After listening to Ye Chen's doubts, Gao Chong explained: "The gregarious nature of wolves determines that they have a common king, and once the wolf king dies, the wolves under it will do whatever it takes to avenge the wolf king, just like Deadpool......"
"I see." Ye Chen nodded.
But there was one more thing he still didn't understand.
"Then why didn't we meet the demon slayer team along the way?"
Dark clouds covered the moon, and the mountains suddenly darkened.
The boy clenched the hilt of his knife warily.
Suddenly, a night breeze blew on the forest path behind him, and it was bitterly cold.
A cold voice came from behind him—
"That's because they've all been lied to by me."
As the cold voice fell, a flash of lightning suddenly appeared in the sky.
Among the trees, the figure of purple clothes looms.
"It turns out that these wolf demons have been killed by you, no wonder you haven't seen any of them."
Suddenly, the cold voice became sharp, and a flying knife tore through the night and struck suddenly!
Gao Chong reacted quickly and shouted, "Brother Ye Chen, be careful!" ”
Without any hesitation, his empty left hand directly pulled out the giant sword behind him.
The greatsword plunges into the earth.
With a thud, the throwing knife slammed into the giant sword and landed in the blood.
Ye Chen gathered his mind, the hand holding the handle of the knife tightened again, and his gaze fell into the depths of the forest.
At this time, the dark clouds dispersed and the moonlight shone down.
The purple-clothed figure was extremely conspicuous, it was the female disciple of the Divine Palace, Tang Yi.
Seventeen-year-old Qi Primitive.
Ye Chen frowned, and the rudimentary plan in his heart slowly surfaced.
In fact, the boy didn't care if he ran into other demon slayer teams along the way.
What Ye Chen was looking forward to meeting was the female disciple of this god hall.
"You don't look surprised to see me." The purple-clothed girl hooked her lips and smiled, with a chill.
Gao Chong held the giant sword in one hand, put the notebook and dagger into the storage bag in the other, and replied with a laugh: "Except for you, I can't think of anyone who will use this kind of indiscriminate trick to sneak attack!" ”
"Oh? Is this girl so unbearable? The purple-clothed girl sneered, and her tone suddenly changed to sadness: "Maybe in the eyes of you ignorant fools, I'm so unbearable." ”
"So...... You all deserve to die! ”
With a wry smile, the purple-clothed girl ran quickly, a cold wind poured into her sleeves, and two short knives appeared.
The girl's slender fingers let the back of the knife slide down from the fingertips, until the handle of the knife appeared, and the ten fingers pinched lightly, and while holding the short knife, the purple figure jumped up, from top to bottom, slashing towards Gao Chong and Ye Chen.
A cold wind rose from the ground.
Facing the girl's surprise attack, Ye Chen clearly knew that Gao Chong in the late stage of the Forging Body Realm had no ability to confront him head-on at this time.
At this moment, the young man did not hesitate, and threw the broken knife in his hand towards the girl with all his strength.
The Xuan-rank mortal demon slashing knife, although the grade is not high, but after killing dozens of wolf demons, the knife body is bloody and pungent, and then blessed by the power of the young man's qi induction.
The moment it was thrown, it was like a vicious wolf pounced.
The girl was stunned, didn't have time to think about it, and turned over to dodge.
After taking a few steps back, the purple-clothed girl stabilized her figure, and by the moonlight, she could see at a glance the broken demon suppression official on the ground with the demon slashing knife.
"How dare you fool me!" The purple-clothed girl's face was hideous.
"Stupid! You don't have any weapons now, and you're no match for me!" ”
Before the words fell, the girl in purple changed her body shape again.
This time, with the two sharp short knives in her hand, she was completely sure that she would kill Ye Chen and Gao Chong.
However, just when she was about to finish Gao Chong, who was burly but had a low realm, Ye Chen, who was empty-handed, turned around and blocked Gao Chong with a giant sword in front of him.
The young man swung his arm with his right hand and turned his fist into a palm.
The space ring engraved with the official seal of the "Demon Suppression Division" between his fingers flashed a faint light, and then a long sword appeared.
His wrist trembled slightly, his five fingers held the hilt of the sword, his left hand removed the scabbard, and the long sword stained with rust emitted a desolate aura against the background of the moonlight.
A glint twinkled in the boy's eyes.
Swing your sword!
The brilliant sword light exploded, accompanied by a strong sword aura, which shook the approaching purple-clothed girl back suddenly.
"Hmm......"
The ground cracked with a clearly visible sword mark.
At the end of the sword mark, the purple-clothed girl staggered and spat out a mouthful of black blood.
