If these demons hadn’t kept their beast forms, many would’ve thought that humans still ruled the area. In mere moments, they drew close to the group of tied-up humans. Now that they were closer, the two were able to recognize them. They were, in fact, the people who stayed at the Death Inn. There were quite a lot of them, eighteen to be exact. However, these people looked pathetic. They were all decorated with colored ribbons, and some had even lost their limbs.
These people were just different animals to those demons, just like how humans treated pigs as livestock. The roles had merely reversed here. More importantly, they lacked the strength to defend themselves.
Smack!
Slapped by a demon, a young teen tumbled over. After that, the demon punched and kicked him. “What the hell? Who gave you permission to pee where ever you want? Do you think this is the toilet? Get up and lick the floor clean, or we will eat you right now!”
The teen was devastated. At this point, virtual-novel.net had lost all hope and wanted to die a swift death.
With a loud yell, virtual-novel.net lunged towards that demon, hoping to take it down with him. However, it was all just wishful thinking. The young teen’s cultivation level was far weaker than these demons, and virtual-novel.net was immediately subdued.
The teen lay on the ground, filled with despair.
It was then that virtual-novel.net noticed Alex and Maximilia standing on the roof, hiding in the dark. She signaled to virtual-novel.net not to expose their location and that they would think of a way to save them.
Unexpectedly, that teen started screaming. “Look! Humans! There are humans up there! ”
‘What?’ The two were confused.
‘Has this guy lost it?’
It caused many demons to look towards the house. Some winged ones even flew up in the blink of an eye.
“Run!”
Maximilia yelled as virtual-novel.net retreated with Alex in virtual-novel.net arms. To their demise, virtual-novel.net was still slower than the flying demons.
As they were about to be caught on, virtual-novel.net stomped onto a roof with virtual-novel.net bare feet, sending hundreds of tiles up into the air. She then slammed them with virtual-novel.net palm as they shot toward the demons like meteorites. Still holding Alex, Maximilia jumped to the ground, escaping through the densely packed buildings with all virtual-novel.net might.
Unable to help, Alex could only curse the teen under his breath.
Maximilia said, “That guy doesn’t want to live anymore, but he’s a selfish bastard. Since virtual-novel.net figured that it’s hopeless, virtual-novel.net wishes to take everyone down with him, including us.”
Whoosh!
Just then, a demon crawled out of the ground. Alex seemed exhilarated to see it. “It’s the golden phoenix scorpion!”
They were here for the scorpion, so it was unexpected that it showed up on its own.
Maximilia said, “We can’t fight here. Let’s just lead it away.”
Alex thought about a place where the strategist had set a formation up in the past and immediately told Maximilia to go there.
