Chapter 229: Let The Grind Begin!

With Talon as his ride, it only took Liam 10 seconds to reach the town and he immediately dived right in.

He had already taken a lot of detours and he couldn't afford to waste any more time.

He hurried to the central square and saw the bunch of familiar faces who were almost as eager as him.

Liam waved his hand and called forth all of them. The number of demons waiting for him had now doubled.

It looked like everybody had survived the last invasion, so there were now ten of them waiting in front of him.

All of them had big smiles on their faces, clearly very happy to see Liam.

However, when they rushed over to Liam, they saw him smiling as well and for some unknown reason, they started subconsciously sweating.

"Let's start an invasion first."

Liam continued smiling and tore open the first portal scroll without explaining much.

And thus began the never-ending grind...

Liam wore the black mask on his face and he and his team of demons started invading Xion without any break.

Since these were the special war missions, every single one of them landed the group in places filled with at least a few players.

And this time, Liam did not hold back.

He used Talon, his golems, the grenades, every single thing in his disposition, and massacred all the living breathing beings in his sight.Fôllôw new stories at novelhall.com

It did not matter if they were players, beasts, monsters, or other races, everyone was killed without any prejudice.

All the demon beasts in his team as well gained a new type of respect for him.

Liam recruited the two groups of demons alternatingly and continued doing the invasion missions without any rest.

So while his demon lackeys at least got some downtime, he continued tirelessly cutting down the enemies and engaging in battles.

Everyone couldn't help but appreciate his battle prowess and mental strength. To fight continuously like this also required a certain type of willpower.

And their squad leader definitely had that talent. Inspired by his actions, they also fought to the best of their capabilities.

They continued grinding out one mission after another and slowly but steadily, loots, gold, experience points, and contribution points began piling up.

Soon, their squad began to slowly rise to the top.

Their ranking continuously kept on increasing as they cleared missions back to back with resounding success.

And to the dismay of the envious demon beast at the token counter, Liam as well donated the maximum loot to the war chest every single time.

"You?" Liam cocked his head to the side.

The demon immediately stiffened up and cleared his throat. "Forgive me for my lack of manners, Sire." He muttered, his words laced with a hint of sarcasm.

He then took out some scrolls from under the desk and handed them over to Liam. "These are the platoon invasion mission scrolls."

"And each of them cost 100 gold." The demon replied with a visible glint in his eyes as if he was challenging Liam to buy dozens of these as he did before.

But Liam neither paid attention to his taunts nor his behavior. He grabbed a couple of scrolls and paid the required amount of gold.

He then returned back to the corner of the square where his 10 squad members were standing obediently.

And behind these 10 squad members, there were 20 other demons also lined up. Their team alone seemed to occupy this entire section of the central square.

When Liam walked over to them, all the demons roared together, greeting him in unison. Their voice and their faces looked like they had a lot of spirit and energy.

Liam was definitely impressed and he asked his personal team. "Did you guys recruit them?"

Hiruyu, the demon who had voluntarily taken up the task of acting like a leader stepped forward and reported to Liam.

"Yes, leader. We recruited these soldiers and I can personally vouch for their capabilities."

"Ok." Liam nodded and patted him.

He only needed more headcounts for the platoon.

It was impossible for him to pick and choose when there were these many demons so he didn't exactly mind who was selected and who wasn't.

In fact, the demon had just saved him some time and made his life easier so he gave him a silver coin and rewarded him.

"Alright. We will prepare to attack now. But before that..." Liam shouted. "Stand in groups according to what equipment you are comfortable using."

After doing multiple rounds of invasions, his bag was brimming fully with all sorts of equipment. So he wanted to distribute some to improve his team's overall strength.

While this might be an excessive expenditure, Liam did not plan on underestimating the difficulty of a platoon invasion.

As the size of his demon army increased, he was sure that the danger and difficulty would also increase accordingly.

So he did not hold back and generously distributed the several items that he had managed to collect. Many among these were rare-grade and some even unique-grade.

But Liam still did not hold back and distributed it all.

If the stormtroopers guild leader came to know about this, he would definitely want to murder Liam even if he did not know that he was the one who swindled him out of thousands of gold coins.

The equipment he considered so precious was simply being tossed over to random underlings.

The demons also were equally surprised. Most of them were close friends and acquaintances of Liam's personal team so they all exchanged knowing glances.

They had heard a lot about this new young platoon leader and it looked like everything that they heard was true.

After these preparations were completed and the weapons were distributed to different groups, Liam also noticed that this time they had managed to recruit some casters.
