Divine Seal: Six Paths of Reincarnation, I am the Crown-Rank Assassin

Chapter 43 Night Battle at the Fortress, Earning Merit

Zhang Ronghai was dressed in military uniform, wearing thick plate armor, and carrying a broadsword and battle axe.

Yan Qianqiu glanced at it and recognized that this weapon was also a standard weapon, only slightly more advanced.

It should be noted that Zhang Ronghai is a fourth-tier warrior, yet as the battalion commander of the first battalion, he doesn't even have a single magic-grade piece of equipment.

This is one of the reasons why the death rate among soldiers is so high.

In front of the East Gate,

It was completely dark by then.

Yan Qianqiu stood at the very front of the battalion, with soldiers behind him looking at him curiously.

These soldiers, to put it tragically, were cannon fodder on the front lines of the brutal battlefield, one batch after another, so naturally they wouldn't recognize him.

The warrior had a serious expression, holding a broadsword and wearing leather armor.

Slightly higher-ranking junior officers wore chainmail underneath their officer uniforms.

Yan Qianqiu carefully examined the thousand men assembled in the battalion, meaning that only Battalion Commander Zhang Ronghai was truly qualified to wear plate armor.

Under the influence of spiritual power,
The boy learned that the vast majority of these warriors possessed first- or second-tier strength.

This level of strength means that they only possess external spiritual power and are not even qualified to awaken internal spiritual power.

Zhang Ronghai rallied the troops, "Brothers, the demons' offensive is getting fiercer and fiercer. We need to make our move ahead of time and kill these demon bastards."

"Anyone who's afraid of death, don't blame me for turning my back on my brothers with these two axes!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!" The warriors raised their swords.

Flares were suspended high in the sky.

The roar echoed through the sky beneath the stars.

Yan Qianqiu arrived at the city wall with ease, with Cai'er and Fei Lengcui on his left and right respectively.

Liu Xian and Bai Xiaomo are positioned in the center, while Tan Wan, who is skilled in both magic and martial arts, finishes the show.

The exorcism gate is 100 meters high inside and 300 meters high outside, and its thickness is also 100 meters.

At the foot of the city wall,
The overwhelming number of dual-wielding demons were almost all second-tier demons.

The soldiers of the first battalion scaled the city wall, but were at a disadvantage in one-on-one combat against the dual-wielding demon. Fortunately, they only needed to drive away the dual-wielding demon as it climbed the wall.

Moreover, members of the Demon Hunter Group also came to help.

"Bah-"

With a single swing of his heavy sword, Yan Qianqiu struck the Twin-Blade Demon, who fell like wheat being harvested.

The greatsword moved with ease in his hands, but once it landed on the Twin-Blade Demon, it would send flesh and blood flying.

This was a complete one-sided massacre.

Limbs flew everywhere, and blood splattered.

The stench of blood was thick and pungent, enough to make those who had never experienced a battlefield turn pale and vomit.

The soldiers watched as Yan Qianqiu killed the Twin-Blade Demon as easily as mowing grass, even more effortlessly than mowing grass.

They stared in disbelief, exclaiming, "Even the battalion commander isn't that strong!"

"You little brat, are you teasing me?" Zhang Ronghai laughed and scolded. "How could I possibly compare to that person?"

Yan Qianqiu didn't even feel fatigued after killing these second-tier dual-sword demons, and didn't even need to use his inner spiritual power.

His external spiritual power was a full 1,900, making him a veritable god of death in human skin.

To put it bluntly,

The combined external spiritual power of the other five members of the No. 1 Demon Hunter Team was not as high as his alone.

Florence's figure flickered, her strength becoming even more formidable after breaking through to the fifth rank.

The girl weaved between the twin-sword demons, a flash of cold light first appearing on her crimson spear, followed by a thrust that moved like a dragon.

Each shot easily pierced through two or three demons.

Cai'er moved swiftly, each strike a bloody assassination of the surviving dual-wielding demons at the edge.

Bai Xiaomo sat in a wicker chair, looking languid, directing the pod shooters like a plant queen.

The emerald green cannonball shot out and exploded on the dual-wielding demon, smearing it with dark green liquid.

The demon soldiers' movements visibly slowed down.

Even worse, the unlucky dual-wielding demon had his head smashed and his chest pierced, dying instantly.

Yan Qianqiu wielded his heavy sword with sweeping, powerful strokes, his merit points soaring rapidly. Tan Wan's martial merit points rose even faster; his mage wind blades swept across the sky, almost instantly slaughtering a large group of dual-wielding demons below the city walls.

The woman looked at the boy.

Unlike her usual arrogant self, Tan Wan knew that these dual-sword demons were simply beneath Yan Qianqiu's notice and hadn't used a single bit of their strength.

This time,

The first five infantry battalions went into battle together, and Long Haochen, Yang Wenzhao, and Duan Yi were also on the city wall.

They all summoned their mounts, especially Yang Wenzhao's level 7 Starry Unicorn, which sped through the air, its starlight dazzling and exceptionally handsome.

However, their merit points could never compare to Yan Qianqiu's.

Yang Wenzhao watched the young man wielding a heavy sword on the city wall, his movements sharp and agile, and muttered to himself, "Doesn't he feel anything at all?"

"Woo——"

Yan Qianqiu heard a familiar loud noise; it was the roar of the magic crystal turret.

Cannonballs flew from the city walls, pointing into the distance.

In the sky, the demonic air force, resembling dark clouds, covered the entire sky.

Beneath the city walls,

An unknown number of demons surged forth like a torrent.

"The demons have launched a full-scale attack. Ranged units, be careful," Yan Qianqiu warned, gazing into the distance.

Amidst the surging tide of the demon army, Yan Qianqiu spotted several emerald green figures.

He took out a magnificent heavy bow, and in the afterglow of the setting sun, spiritual energy condensed into arrows at his fingertips.

Three points and one line.

A blazing sun breaks through the dawn at your fingertips.

"disease"

The Sun-Chasing Arrow flew over the densely packed demons, piercing the emerald-green twin-bladed demon with pinpoint accuracy.

The grotesque lizard's head exploded.

The elite fifth-tier demons were killed instantly, becoming part of the countless corpses scattered on the ground.

Yan Qianqiu's merit badge on his right arm has been upgraded to "ten points" of merit.

He stood atop the city wall, his fingers constantly gathering spiritual energy to form a bow and arrow, the Sun-Chasing Arrow imbued with hellfire.

His arrows never missed their mark; he could hit a willow leaf from a hundred paces away.

The emerald-green twin-blade demon, hidden among the demon army, had nine heads brutally killed by him.

The boy's merit points continued to rise, surpassing those of the wind-type mage Tan Wan.

As the arrows hurtled down, the woman bit her lip and muttered to herself, "They don't even know how to give me a head start."

Her sensory abilities were inferior to the boy's, and before she could even detect the Emerald Twin Blade Demon, the elite demons had already been slaughtered by the boy.

On the right half of the city wall at the southeast gate,
A green figure climbed onto the wall in front of Long Haochen. The golden-eyed youth unleashed a series of divine defenses and parries to block the attack of the berserk green twin-blade demon.

With the help of his teammates, the second-ranked Demon Hunter team, he finally succeeded in killing the Emerald Twin Blade Demon.

On the higher city tower,

Thousands of mages unleashed their spells from afar; each of them possessed a cultivation level no lower than the fourth rank, and they were one of the main forces in slaying the demons.

"Withdraw, prepare for the rotation!" Zhang Ronghai shouted.

After the demons launched their all-out offensive, these infantry battalions were already struggling to hold their own.

Casualties have also begun to appear in other areas.

After all, the demon race was like a tidal wave, with an overwhelming number of them.

Some dual-wielding demons even evolved during the battlefield carnage, preparing to advance into emerald dual-wielding demons.

Spiritual energy infusion,

The dual-wielding demon, in the midst of its advancement, devoured the flesh and blood of its own kind, continuously raising its cultivation level from the second tier until it stabilized at the fifth tier.

"Clang!" The fully evolved emerald-green twin-bladed demon was excited, brandishing its ferocious twin blades.

Wherever Yan Qianqiu's gaze fell, arrows rained down, heads exploded, and another ten merit points were credited to his account.

Upon hearing Zhang Ronghai's order, the infantrymen quickly relieved the elite soldiers.
