Chapter 147: Not a single enemy will leave the Forest of Truth alive
After Shadow Seven left, Mike faced several waves of demon creatures, all of which he easily dispatched. However, he didn't let his guard down.
This great battle, sparked by Thor, had far-reaching implications beyond his expectations.
For now, he was only dealing with low-tier Battle Chief demon creatures, making it relatively easier. These demon creatures, even with life-saving methods, were extremely limited.
In fact, the demon creatures reaching the Forest of Truth at this time were mostly cannon fodder. Shadow Seven's earlier assessment wasn't wrong. Humanity had initiated the battle, and the Abyssal Plane was bound to have a response. Both sides were gathering energy for a big move.
Left to guard the outskirts of the Forest of Truth, Mike patrolled his assigned area. He set up numerous traps and formations along the way, notifying Shadow Seven via his wrist communicator to avoid friendly fire.
After completing these preparations, Mike placed a Decoy Doll in a conspicuous spot. The Decoy Doll would mimic Mike's actions, making it look like he was casting spells.
To further ensure its effectiveness, Mike set up a hidden Decoy Doll in a more concealed location. This Decoy Doll was even more realistic, equipped with a full set of level 100 gear, making it look like a hidden threat. It was a Decoy Doll for the Decoy Doll.
Additionally, Mike placed several more Decoy Dolls, both in plain sight and hidden, to confuse the enemy. Finally, he summoned Cerberus and Chaos Claw Tiger.
"You two, change your appearance. The dog shouldn't look like a dog, and the cat shouldn't look like a cat."
Chaos Claw Tiger, seeing this side of Mike for the first time, was momentarily unsure of what to do. Under Mike's guidance, Cerberus hid one of its heads, transforming into a two-headed wolf. Chaos Claw Tiger morphed into a frail-looking sparrow.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Very good, excellent," Mike nodded, satisfied with their understanding. "You two guard this Decoy Doll. Make it convincing. If you do well, you'll get extra chicken legs for dinner."
The two phantoms were assigned to guard the most realistic Decoy Doll, acting seriously. With these preparations, the security measures were complete.
Three minutes later, the warning formations Mike had set up alerted him to a significant number of demon creatures entering the Forest of Truth, heading his way.
Unlike the previous demon creatures, these were the first to appear in an organized formation. Their armor and equipment bore special insignias!
"The Sixth Demon God, Blood Blade Corps!"
Mike immediately recognized their origin. Over a hundred minotaurs, forming a scout team, charged forward with red eyes and heavy breaths. The formations Mike had set up on the outskirts were destroyed by their charge, failing to slow them down.
"Wind Fury!"
"Lightning Storm!"
The next wave of attack was led by ten Battle Chiefs with nearly a hundred Battle Generals in a frontal assault. The charge team mainly consisted of the white-furred and minotaur's
subordinates.
Meanwhile, other demon creatures' subordinates moved stealthily, searching for the guardian and waiting for an opportunity to assassinate him. The four ninth-tier Battle Chiefs would act based on their judgment at the right moment.
No time to waste.
"Kill!"
Over a hundred figures charged forward again, many demon creatures with faint blue shields. When the lightning storm reappeared, these blue shields deflected the lightning, redirecting the damage to other demon creatures!
"Charge!"
In the lightning storm, ten Battle Chiefs emerged unscathed, leading over twenty surviving Battle Generals into Mike's traps!
"Lightning immunity?!"
Hiding in the shadows, Mike's expression tightened. Lightning immunity wasn't surprising;
it was expected.
Under the [Eye of Truth], no secret could be hidden from Mike. Not only were dozens of demon creatures charging openly, but two groups were also stealthily advancing at high
speed!
"These aren't cannon fodder. They're trying to break through the line in one go!"
Behind Mike was the defensive line formed by the summer camp seniors. They could handle Battle General-level demon creatures, given their numbers and strength. But if Battle Chief- level demon creatures broke through, even if they held the line, the casualties would be
severe!
Mike took out the Thunderclap Hammer, his eyes cold as he looked at the surrounding demon
creatures.
"Not a single enemy will leave the Forest of Truth alive!"
