Chapter 249 - 160: Task Begins
At the Jinxia Tower’s formation node, it’s under the siege of the Green Wolf Demon King’s subordinates.
Due to the suppression of the formation node on demons, within a few miles, the strongest demons could only reach the Spirit Level Peak, not even a single Xuan-level demon could be seen.
Their battlefield is not here.
Leading the numerous demons is a Spirit-level Peak demon with a spider body and a human face.
At this moment, the surroundings of Little Elephant Mountain are swarming with demons.
At the foot of the small hill, there are hundreds of Mortal-level demons, about five or six hundred.
Those who can stand on the small hill are all Spirit-level, and like Tian He said, the number reaches 150 or 160.
The most eye-catching ones are undoubtedly the group of demons on top of the mountain.
There are only nineteen of them, but each gives off a strong oppressive feeling.
All of them are at the Spirit Level Peak!
Most of these demons are the subordinates of the Green Wolf Demon King.
Su Nan has disguised himself as the Wolf Demon and arrived.
Seeing him, the demons at the foot of the mountain instantly caused a commotion.
“That guy is Tiger Emperor’s brother? He’s only at the Mid-stage Spirit-level; it doesn’t seem like there’s anything special about him.”
“I don’t know what kind of luck this guy has had to be noticed by Lord Tiger Emperor.”
“Shh, keep it down; if we’re heard, we’ll be in trouble!”
Hundreds of pairs of eyes stared at Su Nan curiously and scrutinizingly, but mostly enviously.
“Master, you’re here!”
Su Nan walked up the hill, and Eagle High, Old Black, and a few others came to greet him the first time.
Now, these few people didn’t shy away from calling Su Nan their master in front of all the demons. They didn’t feel ashamed but rather took pride in it.
Hearing the words of the few demons, the other dozens of Peak Spirit-level demons on the mountain top were astonished, as they never expected these demons would acknowledge Su Nan as their master.
However, they quickly understood. From their perspective, Su Nan is now the younger brother of the Tiger Emperor, and he has been acknowledged by the Green Wolf Demon King, officially replacing Bear Rock’s territory.
As for Eagle High and the others, they used to be the subordinates of Bear Rock, so it only made sense for them to become Su Nan’s subordinates now.
They didn’t know that these demons had already been controlled by Su Nan.
“Master, how did you become the brother of that Tiger Emperor?” Old Goat couldn’t help but ask.
Hearing this, the surrounding demons all pricked up their ears, awaiting Su Nan’s answer.
Up until now, these demons hadn’t come out of the shock of Su Nan being Hu Xiaotian’s brother.
The Demonic Emperor!
If the Demon King controls most of Tianyun County’s regions, then the Demonic Emperor undoubtedly is the lord of a county!
“Don’t ask what you shouldn’t ask.” Su Nan glanced at the demons and said in a deep voice.
The few demons chuckled awkwardly and didn’t dare ask any more questions.
Meanwhile.
Jinxia Tower, located several miles away from Little Elephant Mountain.
The situation here is somewhat similar to the Martial King Temple.
Of course, the core position protecting the Golden Rosy Clouds Tower will be the elite disciples of the Dianxing Sect.
There are over four hundred of these people.
Unfortunately, most of them are mortals, and there are only about a hundred Spirit-level disciples compared to the demons; there is a significant difference.
On the outer circle, naturally, are the players.
Compared to the Martial King Temple, the number of players here can be described as astonishing.
There are more than ten thousand people!
This number is ten times more than the number of players guarding the Martial King Temple!
Of course, more than ninety percent of these people are new players in the Second Public Test.
There are only over a thousand old players from the First Public Test. All these players are core members of the three guilds.
Unlike the situation during the First Public Test, the second batch of players got help from the first batch of players, making the situation a hundred times better.
With the help of the first batch of players, the new players in the Second Public Test completed the Novice Task and merged with a bloodline within just three days.
Now, with tens of thousands of players gathered, it’s quite a force.
“Brother Zhou, we’ve gathered so many players this time. Even if the Spirit-level demons outnumbers us, we can still wear them down to nothing.”
Zhou Cheng gazed in the direction of Little Elephant Mountain, and beside him were Ma Hua, the chairman of the Arson Guild, and Li Ye, the chairman of the Club of World Suppression.
Behind the three, there were several players who were among the top hundred powerhouses.
It’s just that there were eight or nine fewer of them than there were a day ago.
Li Ye nodded and said, “It’s a pity that more than 80,000 players have arrived in Tianyun County this time. The preparation time for this task is too short, and most players couldn’t make it to Tianyun City.”
“Otherwise, the number of players would be eight or nine times higher!”
Zhou Cheng said, “The task at hand is just the beginning. After this, there will inevitably be a second or even a third such task. This one is the easiest.”
Then he looked to Meng Feng and asked, “Has that Wolf Demon been found?”
“No,” Meng Feng shook his head, looking a bit downhearted.
“I originally wanted to use that Wolf Demon to give the third-ranked Demon Hunting Bureau Chief a surprise, but it seems there’s no hope now.”
Zhou Cheng’s face darkened, “That Wolf Demon killed so many of my guild members yesterday; not only will I take revenge, but I’ll do it as soon as possible.”
“If that Wolf Demon doesn’t come here today, even if he has good luck and escapes everything, if he dares to show up, I’ll make sure he’ll be torn to pieces!”
Mentioning the Wolf Demon Su Nan had transformed into, Zhou Cheng was annoyed that his teeth itched.
Eight or nine of the top hundred players were killed, their Qi Luck was stripped away, leading to a sharp decline in the number of high-end battle players in his guild.
Originally, in the game, his guild could rank in the top three.
Now, they can only rank in the top five.
As they were talking, a disciple of Dianxing Sect approached.
“Junior Brother Zhou, how is the preparation going?”
