Bac Ninh City.
On the dilapidated streets, third- and fourth-level demons were wandering around aimlessly.
At this time, the demons' sweep of the survivors in the city was basically coming to an end, and the humans in the city either hid in underground shelters or had died in the first wave of attacks.
The intelligent demons of the fourth and fifth levels did not actively seek the entrances to these shelters.
Instead, they were guarding the streets around the altar in a very disciplined and layered manner, with fourth-order high-level demons guarding the outermost layer, and the level of the demons increased the further inward they went.
Next to the huge altar, three figures with terrifying auras stood there.
They have different shapes. The one on the far left is three meters tall, huge, fat as a mountain, and carries two huge pumpkin hammers on its shoulders.
The one in the middle has wings on his back and a bird's beak, looking like a birdman.
The figure on the right is blurry, and one can only make out his approximate size through the fluctuations in space. He is a demon with slender limbs and a height of two meters.
The three of them were actually the three fifth-order peak demons who had attacked and killed the city lord Gu Qing before.
"It's not easy for you to come to the human territory. Don't you want to experience the deliciousness of human flesh and blood?" The fat Meat Mountain Demon General licked his lips.
He could no longer contain his inner restlessness.
The bird-like demon with wings on its back said expressionlessly, "Meat Mountain, don't forget the mission assigned by the High Priest. If you fail to complete it, you will all be transformed into war servants by the High Priest!"
"Hey, we are all the strongest of the fifth rank in each branch, and we also have the innate magical powers of each race. How can those fragile humans compare with us?"
The Meat Mountain Demon General's already ugly face revealed a ferocious smile.
A wave of vibrations appeared in the air nearby, and the indistinct demonic figure on the right said, "Whether we can restrain our murderous instincts is the difference between us and the lower-level demons of the third rank."
"If you can't even do this, then all your level-ups over the years have been in vain."
The Meat Mountain Demon General glared at him angrily: "It's not your turn to teach me a lesson!"
"Stop arguing!"
The bird-man demon general shouted and looked up at the purple barrier above his head. There was a gap in the area where he was looking that was invisible to the naked eye.
"I can feel that those humans are coming in."
Hearing this, the Meat Mountain General raised his two massive hammers and said, "Just in time! Once they get in, we'll wipe them out!"
"No! We must separate them and defeat them one by one!"
The bird-man demon general took out a piece of mirror fragment and injected demonic energy into it. Soon, a hunched figure holding a staff appeared on the mirror.
…
Outside Bac Ninh City.
Li Xuan followed the team through a series of blockades formed by military soldiers and arrived at the city gate.
This city that he was very familiar with was now surrounded by water and covered by a huge barrier, making it impossible to see what was happening inside.
A military commander spoke loudly, "Time is of the essence. I'm sure you're all very clear about the mission, so let me emphasize one point!"
"You have only one mission, and that is to destroy the altar in the city! As long as you complete this mission, everyone who is still alive in the city will be saved!"
"Don't deliberately rescue the survivors. Doing so will only delay the destruction of the altar and cause more casualties in the city."
In the team, Li Xuan's eyes flashed. He came to Beining City mainly for his aunt and cousin.
But he also knew what was important and what was not. Moreover, with his current strength, he couldn't even protect himself in the city, let alone rescue and protect them.
Even if he found them, he would not be able to take them out unless he destroyed the altar, so the only way to save them was to destroy the altar.
At this moment, he longed in his heart to be strong enough, now at the fifth level, so that he could rush in and destroy the altar by himself.
Although my current strength is not weak, my attributes are almost at the middle level of the fourth level, and no one can match me in clearing monsters.
However, it does not play a decisive role in whether the mission can be completed, especially when dealing with the fifth-level demons. The key to this mission lies in the five fifth-level geniuses.
Feng Zao from the Capital College, Qi Bai, the white-armored warrior from the guild, Liu Ming, the black-faced man from the military, Ding Lin, the senior from the Chamber of Commerce, and Luo Wu, another fifth-level warrior from the military.
"You are the key to the mission. Others can only assist you in completing it, so you must remember that the mission comes first!"
“Never waste your time on meaningless things.”
The military general glanced at them and gave them this final instruction.
They also knew very well what this meant. Once they entered Beining City, there would inevitably be casualties. If they wasted time rescuing their third and fourth level teammates, they would be missing the point.
"Alright! Enter the city!"
The military general stopped talking and waved his hand, and a gap in the barrier appeared in front of him.
The five fifth-level warriors rushed to the front, followed closely by Li Xuan and others, who stepped through the gap and entered the city.
Wow!
In an instant, Li Xuan felt as if he was sucked into a vortex. After a dizzying spin, he appeared in the ruins outside Beining City.
"Where are the others?"
When he steadied himself, he found that Jiang Yang and others who had been walking side by side with him had all disappeared.
Were they dispersed to various places in the city after entering it?
He looked up at the city and saw that most of the familiar buildings had turned into ruins, and countless demons were wandering in the city.
"Beining City has become like this..."
Although he had seen the appearance of many cities after the invasion of demons when leveling up dungeons before, he still felt extremely complicated when he saw his familiar hometown turned into ruins.
roar!
A wandering third-level demon discovered Li Xuan who suddenly appeared here and roared at him.
whoosh!
Two flying swords flew out and pierced his two heads in an instant.
Kill a Level 39 Two-Headed War Demon! Experience +×10, Strength +600, Agility +500, Defense +350, Spirit +500.
Li Xuan had just used the god-level experience card, and the experience value bonus was multiplied tenfold, so the original 90,000 experience points became 900,000.
"With a tenfold bonus to my experience points, if I can eliminate all the demons wandering around the city, I'll hopefully reach level four. Then I'll definitely be able to fight against peak level five demons."
Li Xuan already had a goal in mind, so he fought his way to the altar in the center of the city.
The others must also be rushing towards the altar. Not only can they level up along the way, but they will also definitely meet other companions.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps and roars coming from all around.
It seems that the roar just now attracted all the demons around.
