Chapter 42: Commandeering, Cannon Fodder

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Behind Brook and the middle-aged male elf, a young female elf suddenly grumbled, “Brook, it’s tough on us coming out to do missions. Can you find a better place to stay next time?”

Brook frowned.

This young miss thinks that she is in the headquarters, the Temple of Marvels!

This is the abyss!

The world of the demons.

One wouldn’t even know how they died if they weren’t careful.

Why is he so unlucky to have to receive such a person amongst the group?

Fortunately, the other older female elf advised in a low voice, “Via, this mission is quite dangerous. I’ve heard that the organization has sent out several patrol teams, and we’re only one of them. To be on the safe side, we must keep as low a profile as possible to avoid being detected by the Earth Demon Race, so you’ll have to bear with it temporarily.”

Just then, the middle-aged man leading the group spoke.

His tone was stern and commanding.

Clearly, he was the leader of this team, the true Sentinel.

“Lil’ Via, your father asked you to come out with me to train, not to come on a vacation. Every time there’s a conflict with the Demon Race, there will be deaths! If you continue to face the next mission with this mentality, it might kill you,” the middle-aged man said.

Melvia pursed her lips.

It was obvious that she wanted to rebut.

However, the middle-aged man’s authority was too strong for her to refute.

The middle-aged man felt helpless.

This little princess was the daughter of a big shot in the organization.

She had been protected too well since she was young and was used to being spoiled.

She did not know the cruelty of a real battle.

This time, she insisted on coming out to take a look.

That big shot couldn’t dissuade her.

He could only agree.

Furthermore, because his strength was considered the strongest among the few teams, this thankless task fell on him.

Anderson was frustrated as well.

He could only do his best to protect her.

In the end, Melvia could only reluctantly move into the room that she thought was extremely shabby.

Coincidentally, it was beside Chu Feng’s room.

The other three also stayed nearby.

Unfortunately, Chu Feng was currently immersed in the huge project of improving the Water-Element Domain Field.

He could only vaguely sense that there were more auras in the other rooms.

But this was an inn and it was normal to have a few more people.

According to Chu Feng’s plan, he would go to Corpse Soul Ridge to look for the Nightmare Ingesting Beast in the middle of the night.

It was not easy to attract the attention of the so-called Third Demonic Son.

As it crawled towards midnight, all of a sudden, loud footsteps came from outside the inn.

It was as if someone had barged into an inn.

Chu Feng was also startled awake by the commotion.

From the window, he saw groups of Earth Demon City Guards.

They searched every house.

As long as they saw warriors, they brought all of them away.

Chu Feng frowned.

What is the meaning of this?

Could they be searching for him?

In order to avenge the leader of the city guards that he killed in the day?

But he had already left the Demonic City before everyone’s eyes.

When he returned, he had changed his appearance once again and he kept a low profile.

Were they not here for him?

Just when Chu Feng was speculating, the people in the other rooms were also on high alert.

The Sentinel, Anderson, hurriedly gathered the members of his team.

They also suspected that the city guards were searching for them.

Have the other teams been exposed?

This time, the organization sent a total of three teams.

Each team was led by an A-rank elite.

Their first goal was to stop the Third Demonic Son from subduing the Nightmare Ingesting Beast King.

Their second and most important goal was to obtain the Thousand-Soul Spirit Flower with all their might.

It must not fall into the hands of the Third Demonic Son.

Otherwise, the Earth Demon Race might produce another A+ rank.

This was something the organization did not want to see.

However, if the organization obtained it, they might be able to nurture another A+ rank elite!

Thousand-Soul Spirit Flower, a soul-type treasure.

After absorbing the souls of thousands of races, it took 333 years to bear fruit, 333 years to bloom, and 333 years to fully mature.

It took nearly one thousand year for just one flower to be born.

It was extremely beneficial to one’s soul.

This was especially so when it came to the crucial step in advancing to the A+ rank, which was the advancement of the soul.

It could greatly increase the chances of a warrior advancing to the A+ rank.

One could imagine how precious it was.

Compared to that, subduing the Nightmare Ingesting Beast King seemed less pressing.

The Third Demonic Son valued this flower the most.

Subduing the Nightmare Ingesting Beast was just a matter of convenience.

However, Chu Feng did not understand.

What was the purpose of this huge commotion tonight?

While Chu Feng was pondering, the city guards had arrived at the second floor of the inn.

“The city guards are conducting an impromptu search. All of you, step out of the guest room! Those who disobey will be killed without mercy!”

The Earth Demon Race was as arrogant as ever.

Soon, people came out from every room.

Who would dare to disobey the words of the Earth Demon Race?

Chu Feng did not wish to cause trouble. Thus, he followed the crowd out.

Before him, Chu Feng suddenly discovered Brook.

It’s him? Someone from the Revolutionary Army!

There are three other people beside Brook. One of them is an A rank, and the other two are B ranks. The middle-aged elf seems to be very strong.

After all, Chu Feng was once an A+ rank, so he still had the ability to make discerning judgments.

The middle-aged elf might be able to deceive the other A-rank experts, but he could not deceive Chu Feng.

In addition to Brook, this rebel team seems to be quite strong. What is their goal?

Chu Feng began to ponder.

Just then, all the guests on the second floor were driven to the hall on the first floor.

The owner of the inn hurried over.

He was also from the Earth Demon Race.

He seemed to know the leader of the city guards.

“Hey, Brother Merck, what happened? Why did you mobilize so many people? Are you trying to track down the rebels?”

When the city guard leader saw an old acquaintance, he also revealed a rare smile.

“Hah, this is the Lord Third Demonic Son’s order. The Lord captured the Nightmare Ingesting Beast King in Corpse Soul Ridge. There was another huge battle just now, but that beast was too difficult to deal with. It ambushed and killed two of the Lord’s Demonic Guards, but it escaped. We didn’t have enough manpower to force the Nightmare Ingesting Beast King to appear.”

“The Lord is furious, so he asked us to capture some cannon fodders. Everyone has a tracking device on them. If someone dies, it means that the Nightmare Ingesting Beast is in that location.”

“Set up an inescapable net for that bastard. Let’s see where he can escape to now. As long as we find him, Lord Karl will be able to capture that bastard on his own.”

“I see.”

The inn owner was enlightened.

“In that case, you can use these lowly commoners as you wish. Anyway, they have already paid the room fees, hehe.”

They both laughed.

In their eyes, other than the demons, all other races were lowly commoners.

It didn’t matter how many of them died.

The two of them did not conceal their voices at all.

It also reached the ears of Chu Feng and the others.

Except for a few people, the expressions of most people turned extremely ugly.

This was definitely a suicidal transaction!

But they couldn’t resist.

“Capture the Nightmare Ingesting Beast King?”

Chu Feng muttered.

This was a good thing for him.

It just so happened that he was worried about how to enter the Corpse Soul Ridge without attracting attention.

This is perfect.

On the other side, after listening to the leader of the Earth Demon Race, Anderson and Brook exchanged glances.

This is good as well.. It’s just that the plan needs to be modified.
