“Boom!” The sounds of rumbling and explosions were deafening.
At the location of the Demonic Clan Treasury of Secret Treasures, just moments ago, as Tang Haofei had just destroyed the treasury, three eleventh level demonic clan experts burst forth from the ground. In the next second, all three launched their attacks on Tang Haofei without hesitation.
With the destruction of the treasury now a certainty and the enemy right in front of him, how could they not take action?
Four figures flashed wildly as massive energy surged forth. In a short amount of time, the already near-destroyed treasury experienced a second round of devastation.
Seeing this, Aogules, who was observing from a distance, couldn't help but frown deeply. The mission given by Wen Yu was to collect the treasures within the treasury that had not yet been destroyed—precious relics that the demonic clan had carefully stored, containing a vast number of valuable items. Wen Yu, who was always looking to profit, definitely wouldn't miss such an opportunity to pick up the scraps.
In fact, after Tang Haofei took action, there were already very few treasures left to be salvaged. When Tang Haofei engaged in a fierce battle with the three guardians, the likelihood of anything remaining after this second round of destruction was truly minimal.
In other words, Aogules' expected gains from this operation were likely to be disappointingly low…
However, Aogules merely shook his head at the thought—he couldn’t exactly go up to Tang Haofei and tell him to take it easy.
Gains were secondary; Aogules could still distinguish between light and heavy matters. He just sighed inwardly, realizing that it was no wonder Tang Haofei was under such tight control from his own master—under the current circumstances, Tang Haofei’s most urgent task was to clear the last target location, rather than to fight for his life against those three eleventh-tier demonic creatures.
Being in the enemy camp, reinforcements from the enemy would undoubtedly keep coming. Aogules had already sensed that, in this brief moment, yet another wave of eleventh-level auras was appearing from the horizon, ready to reach the battlefield in just a few seconds.
The plan should be to break free, quickly destroy the third target location, and then make a hasty retreat—that was the typical approach for such infiltration and sabotage operations!
...
Aogules did not wait long...
Perhaps Tang Haofei's brain had finally clicked, and he realized what exactly he should do. He glanced at the three figures surrounding him, and after a brief moment of contact, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes. Accompanied by a surge of thunder, this power instantly pushed the three men around him away. Then, Old Tang braved the attacks and, despite sustaining light injuries, forcefully broke through the encirclement.
As the lightning flickered, Tang Haofei's figure transformed into light and vanished. Behind him, the three figures pursued him closely.
Tang Haofei ignored the three chasing after him; while dodging the attacks coming from behind, he recalled the last marked mission location on the map—the Demonic Clan Research Department. Then, his feet moved like the wind, and in a short time, he had already covered half the distance.
Until Old Tang suddenly stopped in his tracks.
He looked up ahead and saw not far in front of him a towering frenzied demon, over ten meters tall, wielding a massive battle axe, staring at him with blood-red eyes.
Tang Haofei's heart sank…
He felt unprecedented pressure emanating from this frenzied demon.
...
The two stood facing each other, the frenzied demon's breathing heavy and filled with murderous intent, while Tang Haofei squinted his eyes, seemingly looking for a breakthrough.
However, the immense pressure continued to pour from the frenzied demon, enveloping Tang Haofei's body. This made him feel weak and dull-witted, and for a moment, he couldn't find a way to solve the problem.
In that brief moment of distraction, three figures had already arrived behind Tang Haofei, spreading out to stand in position, glaring at him and letting out a series of incomprehensible roars.
