“Woo... woo...” A short and long horn sounded from afar. Huck turned his head and carefully distinguished the distant sound signals.
After a while, a somewhat frantic demon realm language came from Huck's mouth.
“Strengthen defenses, foreign enemy invasion! Invader's power level----D-grade.”
As the captain of this patrol team, Huck was naturally familiar with the communication methods and various signals of the demonic clan. In the coded messages of the demonic clan, a short and long sound signal indicated that the enemy invading the demonic clan occupied area was of a level that could be completely ignored with just a little caution—almost no danger!
The transmission had just begun when someone had already been detected by the demonic clan, and what was even more frightening was that the response speed of the demonic clan was incredibly efficient and powerful.
As the demonic clan "raised" by the sovereign, even though these demons had some restrictions placed upon them by the sovereign, their inherent battle instincts and tactical awareness developed through the sovereign's training should not be underestimated!
“Probably just a few patrol teams,” said a black-skinned demon creature standing behind him, towering at five meters tall, with a disproportionately large head that had only one huge eyeball.
“Who knows? I just want to hurry up and finish this damned patrol mission!”
Huck, as an ancient demon, muttered—among the demonic clan, the differences in race were not only about identity but also about absolute power disparity; however, Huck's tone when speaking to the one-eyed demon creature did not carry much of an air of superiority.
At level seven, the importance of racial advantages had significantly diminished, replaced instead by skill levels and skill combinations.
“By the way,” Huck seemingly thought of something and turned to ask the one-eyed demon creature. “I heard that in three days, you’ll be transferred to the vanguard legion to serve as the main force for the next large-scale offensive?”
The one-eyed giant ogre opened its mouth wide, and a foul smell instantly enveloped a ten-meter radius around it.
It slowly nodded in response, saying, “The next total offensive is in three days, and from what I know, it should be the final decisive battle! The higher-ups intend to eliminate the remnants of the Immortal Heroic World in a short period!”
Upon hearing this news, Huck mumbled indistinctly, “I figured as much; otherwise, they wouldn't recall you, Old Cook, and that madman, it seems they’ve all been pulled back to the vanguard legion…”
Hearing Huck’s mumbling, the one-eyed giant ogre understood that Huck was feeling frustrated about why he wasn’t recalled to the vanguard legion. Out of friendship, the one-eyed giant ogre comforted him, “Don’t worry, I think the higher-ups must have their considerations; once the casualties in the vanguard legion are heavy enough…”
“Pff~~” A muffled sound interrupted the one-eyed giant ogre's words.
Turning in confusion, the one-eyed giant ogre and Huck, with their three eyes, scrutinized the source of the sound behind them.
However, there was nothing there…
“Who? Who farted so loudly?”
Responding to Huck's question was a level 7 early-stage black-skinned demon creature, whose physical attributes were only around 8000 points.
The black-skinned demon creature trembled and pointed at the spot where the sound had just come from, its large yellowed teeth clattering incessantly as it stammered, “Just... just now... with a puff sound, Barro... is gone…”
“Gone?”
An incredulous tone escaped Huck's mouth, and only then did he realize, quickly counting the number of his squad members.
“1, 2... 3... 9...”
When he reached nine, Huck looked at the one-eyed giant ogre with a grim expression.
In a patrol team with a full complement of ten, they were down one…
…
About thirty kilometers away from Huck's patrol team, a web woven from vines tightly wrapped around a struggling demon creature, resembling a plant that was hanging in mid-air and nurturing something terrifying. Wen Yu was standing beside this massive plant, quietly enjoying the physical enhancement returned by the Heaven-Piercing Demon Vine.
