Urban Demon Refining System

Lefu Square in T City, the largest leisure place for citizens, was now shrouded in demonic energy. The little greenery that was originally there quickly withered, and the grove became deathly silent.

"Bat King, how is the plague spreading?" asked a figure completely shrouded in black.

"Rest assured, Demon Envoy, the plague has already spread through the infected, and it is estimated that it has spread throughout the city by now." The answer he received was a lump of flesh hanging on a tree, which looked like a huge black cocoon from a distance.

"Well done, I will report this to the Demon Lord!" the man in black said, his voice hoarse, like that of a terminally ill patient.

"No need for praise! I'm only concerned about whether anyone will cause me trouble. This is Shushan territory!"

"Those guys are probably too busy taking care of themselves to deal with you!" The man in black smiled smugly. "Right now, their attention is all on Wuji Ridge, so you can go all out here!"

"Wuji Ridge? That's Old Centipede's territory. What, did the people from Shu Mountain offend him?" Meatball, who clearly knew Wuji Ridge well, asked in confusion.

"This time, the centipede demon took the initiative to attack, and even those three guys from Gongzhou City were dragged into it. We were just adding fuel to the fire."

"Was it you who did this?" Meatball was somewhat surprised. He knew the centipede demon very well, and it was difficult for him not to see through ordinary tricks.

"It's just that a piece of news got out," the man in black paused, "a piece of news that he couldn't resist!"

Upon hearing this, the meatball felt a chill run down its spine. The centipede demon was a great demon who had cultivated for over two thousand years, and even it couldn't resist the temptation, which showed just how astonishing the news was.

"Haha! Those are all matters for Demon Child's side, they have little to do with us. Our top priority now is to burn down the backyard of those people from Mount Shu, the bigger the better, and see if they'll still have the mind to think about exorcising demons and monsters all day long!" the man in black said disdainfully.

"Even the Demon Child..." The fleshy mass trembled, clearly surprised by the Demon Child's appearance. A hint of fear crept into its voice.

"What, Bat King, you've heard of the Demon Child's name? With her around, you can just keep setting fires here in peace!"

"Then about transforming into a demonic body..." The fleshy ball's heart skipped a beat, realizing the black-clad man's unspoken warning, and quickly changed the subject, "The Demon Lord has promised me that as long as this plague spreads effectively, he will completely transform my half-demon body into a demonic body!"

"What's the rush! The Demon Lord will personally handle the matter of the Demon Body. He can't outrun you. However, he means that you've done a good job spreading the word here. I think your efforts are still far from sufficient!" The man in black said, somewhat dissatisfied with the lump of flesh's question.

"Yes! Yes!" The fleshy mass trembled and struggled as if breaking free of its cocoon. In a moment, a pair of black wings unfolded from its body.

"Night Demon Assault!" Countless dark figures emerged from black wings, spreading outwards across T City, and the demonic energy shrouding the sky thickened. Upon closer inspection, the dark figures turned out to be black bats with fangs, each emanating an astonishing aura of blackness.

"Hehe, not bad! At this rate of development, T City will become the second Demon Realm!" The man in black nodded in satisfaction. "Continue to intensify the spread of the plague. The day the Demon Realm is completed will be the day your demon body is finished!" After saying that, he flashed and his whole body turned into wisps of black mist, disappearing into the world.

……

"Squeak!" Several black bats flew over Lefu Square and slowly landed near the No. 1 Middle School of the city. It was the time when evening self-study was ending and students were pouring out of the school gate in a bustling manner.

"Oh my god! What is that?" Soon someone in the crowd spotted the black bat hovering in the air. It was a chubby girl. As soon as she finished speaking, a bat swooped down and bit her neck hard.

"Ah! Something bit me!" the girl screamed, clutching her neck. Her voice was filled with terror. She quickly quieted down as the plague on the black bat spread rapidly through her body, causing her to lose consciousness in an instant.

"Someone has fainted!" The girl's sudden appearance quickly caused a stir among the students, and some quick-thinking students dialed the emergency number immediately.

However, what they didn't notice was that bats in the sky had already set their sights on them. Countless black bats swooped down and bit their bodies.

"Ah! Something is biting me!" someone screamed.

"Damn it, what is that thing!" The crowd screamed in pain, and soon more than a dozen people fainted.

"Keep ringing the bell!" The security guard maintaining order at the school gate shouted, seeing the crowd starting to get out of control. However, panic had already spread, and his actions only calmed the crowd down slightly, without doing anything else.

"What's wrong? Can't everyone see those bats?" Before Ou Yunhan even reached the door, she saw her classmates shouting in panic. She subconsciously looked up and saw more than a dozen black bats rising and falling in the sky, each one capable of biting a group of people.

"Everyone, stay calm..." The security guard at the entrance was still trying his best to control the panicked crowd, but things had already gotten out of control. The crowd was so dense that they couldn't hear him at all.

"No! I have to call my uncle and ask him to send more ambulances." She took out her phone, ready to call her uncle, who was a doctor, when a black bat spotted her from the sky and swooped down at her with a shriek.

"Oh no!" Ou Yunhan exclaimed in surprise, instinctively taking a few steps back. However, she did not expect that there was a piece of gravel under her feet. She stepped on it, lost her balance, and fell to the ground.

"Oh no!" The black bat quickly closed in and lunged at her neck. She had no courage to resist and frantically waved her phone.

"Ding! Black Demon Bat detected. Restart the beginner quest?" Suddenly, her phone lit up, and a notification sound rang in her mind.

"I'm sure!" Ou Yunhan had lost her rationality and said subconsciously.

"Ding! New player quest activated. Player's mental state is severely unstable. Protection system activated. Game will switch to auto-capture mode!" The phone screen quickly slid automatically, and a sealing stone was thrown out in an instant.

"Squeak!" Caught off guard, the black bat was sucked in. The sealing stone swayed twice in the air before falling to the ground helplessly.

"Ding! Congratulations, player! You have successfully captured the Black Bat monster. Please check your monster encyclopedia information!"
