It was okay. Everyone was talking and laughing along the way, until she entered such a dark underground passage. She realized that the battle was coming, and her heart jumped.
Xia Mo squeezed Yuan Man’s hand, “It’s okay. I am here. I will protect you.”
Xia Mo and Yuan Man were classmates in high school before the demons came. After the advent of the demons, the two helped each other to come to Spring City.
Xia Mo was a fourth-order control saint. Because she had a higher rank and a mature and stable personality, she had always been taking care of her relatively dumb friend. But most of her daily use of ability was to help at the base’s construction site in exchange for some survival food, she didn’t have much combat experience.
The two girls evoked the male team members’ protection side-
“Sisters, don’t be afraid. Brother will protect you.”
“You remember to hide behind me, I am a defensive saint.”
“Wait for the task to complete, then get paid. When we go back to the city, we will invite you to eat delicious food.”
As he was talking lively, a half-skinned demon body suddenly appeared in the passage. The demon’s face had no eyes and nose, and it was flat. There were only two blood-red holes in the nose. It was the blasphemy’s iconic appearance. It opened its large mouth with sharp teeth and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
“The demon is here! Everyone, get ready to fight. Defense and attacking team, come to the front,” Fang Dacai commanded loudly.
The teammates who had never cooperated acted in a panic. They squeezed forward, backward while the battle hadn’t yet begun.
Everyone stared for a long time, but the demon didn’t appear again.
There was a cry from the rear of the line, and a blasphemer who suddenly appeared from behind grabbed Xia Mo’s leg and dragged her to the depths of the cave.
Yuan Man flung to the ground and grabbed Xia Mo’s hand. Several ability holders reacted and tried to catch them.
Others showed their abilities, attacking the demon at the same time. The demon roared, and its claws penetrated Xia Mo’s ankle, insisting not to let go.
“Don’t panic, don’t panic. Control department, bind the demon first,” Fang Dacai shouted anxiously. He was at the forefront of the team but the road was too narrow to squeeze through.
Finally, a plant saint responded by using his ability to bind the rolling demon with vines. Everyone swarmed up, cut the back of the demon, and obtained it’s crystal core and saved Xia Mo.
Xia Mo broke free from the demon’s claws. Her legs were penetrated, and blood was dripping. Yuan Man’s eyes teared. She used her ability to treat her wounds. She was at a low level. Even if she spent most of her ability, she barely stopped the bleeding from the wound.
“Look, I said we can do it,” Fang Dacai encouraged.
“Don’t be so nervous next time, just cooperate well.”
After all, they achieved victory in the first battle. Everyone was relieved and their morale was high.
Everyone was surprised and self-affirmed in their hearts, that it wasn’t difficult to kill the demon.
On the crooked door frame of a black hole in front, a claw with bright red fingertips and pale skin appeared, and the claw broke apart above the door frame. A blasphemous head with no eyes and nose protruded from the top of the door. It climbed on the ceiling and faced the people with its head upside down.
Behind it, a demon climbed out,
From all directions, the front and rear openings silently stretched out demons one after another.
“Why… how could there be so many?!” Yuan Man’s teeth trembled which made Xia Mo hug her.
The young warriors standing in front of them weren’t much better than them, and the arms holding the hilt shook like a pendulum.
When did the number of blasphemers there reach such a level? That was inconsistent with what they had inquired about, and it wasn’t at all a battle they could handle.
“No… don’t be afraid, hold on, I… ah!”
“Help! Save me…”
