"..."

"..." Ñ00v€l--ß1n hosted the premiere release of this chapter.

Qiel stopped awkwardly when she didn't hear anything from the city. Normally, if the demons broke out into the city, they would wreak havoc, and the people would scream in panic. But there was nothing to hear.

"..." Qiel looked at Noel, who looked at her as if she was a fool. "Don't tell me..."

There was something amiss. The underground demon would be the hardest to stop, so how could they disappoint her?

"What is going on?" Qiel turned around while shouting to the Superior Demon supervising the underground demons. Behind their army were more than twenty holes where the underground demons would create a passage underneath the city and the smaller demons would come in and use this passage.

Yet, nothing happened.

*Roar!* The Superior Demon panicked while pointing at the holes. It was filled with water.

"Huh?!" Qiel's face became pale. How could the holes be filled with water? The demons might be strong under the soil, but if the hole was filled with water, they would drown.

She had sent a lot of demons to dig the ground, but every single hole was completely filled to the brim. Even if they wanted to bring them back, the drowned demons would have stuck in the hole. So, they had no choice but to dig more ground.

But if they kept creating a new hole, the soil used as a battlefield would weaken. Noel wouldn't hesitate to make it collapse, which made the battle even more treacherous for the demons.

"No way." Qiel gritted her teeth.

*Ssshhhh!*

*Sssshhhh!*

The sound of leaves shaking echoed in her ears as if the tree demon were calling her. She turned around and saw the tree send out two roots to show something to Qiel. The first root had blood on it while the other root was completely wet with water.

Qiel dropped her jaw. There was no way the demon tree would kill its fellow demons when they were digging, so the blood must have come from the demon who had died, and the demon tree accidentally punctured it.

And the demon tree wouldn't have spread its roots so deeply that it would dig up the water reservoir below. There was only one possible thing that came into her mind.

"Don't tell me... "Has he created a water wall?!" Qiel gasped. "Then, we should dig deeper to avoid the water wall... no, wait..."

Qiel tried to think about all kinds of possibilities. The water wall's mechanism was pretty simple. They dug the water wall on top of the reservoir so that everything that wanted to enter the city would hit the reservoir. If they tried to dig deeper to avoid the water wall, they would still drown themselves due to the influx of water from the reservoir.

This way, the underground demon wouldn't be able to create a dry tunnel and would never reach the city.

"Not good!" Qiel didn't know what she should do. These demons were her trump card to create chaos inside the city, so she didn't expect that Noel would have found a way to counter it.

"No. There is still one way. If we can't use these demons, there is another type of demon we can use." Qiel gulped down, thinking this was the only solution. "Oi, tree! Use the tunnels and extend them past the wall. All amphibians will submerge and use that hole to enter the city."

At first, he wanted to use the fish as well, but she knew that the fish would be useless once it came out of that hole. So, it would be better if he sent amphibians.

The problem was that there weren't many demons she could use.

"But this is the only way." Qiel gritted her teeth and finalized her order. "Send all the remaining amphibian demons to our side and tell them to enter the city. Destroy everything they could see!"

A demon acted as a messenger to inform the Peak Level Demons that controlled the amphibian demons. Meanwhile, the demon tree was prepared to dig the ground underneath the wall.

However, another plant type demon seemed to have made its move before Qiel ordered.

On the bottom part of the demon tree, there was a yellow-

colored flower sticking out of its trunk. It looked harmless and the fire would engulf it soon, but this was the same flower that controlled the beast.

It seemed that Noel hadn't seen its true might during the previous expedition. Or it could be said that the flower had grown even stronger by absorbing the experience of that battle.

Due to the Supreme Devil Organization commanding it, the Superior Demon actually learned from their tactic. After all, the Superior Demon was very intelligent.

They used that experience to move before Qiel and controlled the dead tree like a zombie.

All of a sudden, two roots broke through the ground.

"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock as he couldn't help but turn around. Yes, the sound came from behind the wall.

He couldn't help but rush to the back of the wall and witness two giant roots.

"What?! Did I miscalculate, but those roots..." Noel obviously recognized these roots since they came from the tree he had just killed. He even thought that the demon tree was still alive, but after creating a passage, the black flame reached the white flower and completely burned it away, stopping the control.

Although there were a lot of questions in his mind, he hurriedly sent a few feathers to burn them away.

He thought that by destroying one of the trees, he would stop the organization from creating a tunnel to his city, but he had underestimated them.

Once the roots were burned, the tunnel was soon filled with water coming from the water wall. Demons rushed into the tunnel and started emerging.

And the one that came out first was a red-colored crocodile.

*Roar!* This was the Superior Demon that controlled all the amphibian demons.

"What?!"

"The demons..."

"There are demons in the city..."

"No way!"

The people gasped. While it was true that there was a demon inside the city, there weren't many buildings around since the city wasn't fully developed yet.

And Clara was the one who understood the importance of this hole the most. She had been assigned to the center of the city so that she could supervise the healing and treatment of the injured while protecting the citizens, but after seeing this Superior Demon, the first thing she did was leap into the air.

A thread formed and extended from her hand, attaching itself to the buildings next to them. She then pulled herself on top of the thread and used it to launch herself to the north wall.

It only took her a few seconds to reach the north wall. Even the Superior Demon stopped because it was preparing for Clara's attack.

*Roar!*

Clara raised her hand, creating numerous threads. She shouted to Noel, "I will take care of this Superior Demon. But we have to seal the hole immediately!"

Noel nodded with a solemn expression, ready to send his squad. However, he saw that the demons began to emerge.

Noel hurriedly ordered, "We have to plug the holes and kill all the demons. Felicia. Send half of your men down. Aerton, take control of the reserve and eliminate all the demons. And... Erica, help the soldiers kill all the demons!"

"Roger!" Aerton and Felicia hurriedly commanded the group. However, Erica was completely surprised. Noel wanted her to lead her group to kill the demons, meaning that they finally had the chance to take part in this battle.

Erica and Eric looked at each other and nodded their heads. "Yes!"
