Devouring all things: I possess the energy of chaos.

Mo Hong arrived at the location ahead of schedule.

Soon everyone arrived.

When Gao Fan arrived, he gave Mo Hong a cold glance, but didn't say anything more.

Mo Hong remained indifferent and paid no attention to this.

"Gao Fan's physical attributes are only at level 14. If I were to unleash my full strength, I might be able to fight him."

Mo Hong thought to himself.

Through the purple mist, he had already assessed the strength of everyone in the team.

Yan Ming, who was in charge, was level 15, Gao Fan and a man named Jiang Nian were level 14, and the rest were level 13.

Now that Mo Hong has broken through to level 12, with his mid-stage first-level artistic conception and the revelation of his trump cards, he already has the ability to fight beyond his level.

Even if he really couldn't win, Mo Hong was fully confident that he could escape.

He's not afraid of Gao Fan in a one-on-one situation right now.

"Huh? Mo Hong, you've broken through?"

Suddenly, Yan Ming's expression changed, and he exclaimed in surprise.

"I just broke through yesterday."

Mo Hong replied with a single sentence.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the others changed slightly.

Because Mo Hong's aura was not very obvious, they didn't actually notice that Mo Hong had broken through.

For a moment, the hostility in the eyes of a few people looking at Mo Hong lessened slightly.

Gao Fan, upon hearing that Mo Hong had broken through, couldn't help but snort coldly.

"Now that everyone is here, let me first talk about today's mandatory tasks."

Yan Ming began to speak, and everyone immediately fell silent, waiting for him to continue.

Mandatory missions are tasks assigned by the military and are related to intelligence gathering at the start of every major war, so every squad must take them seriously.

Because failure to meet the requirements would result in severe punishment, the most direct consequence of which would be serving as a frontline soldier.

"This time, we will mainly conduct reconnaissance in the northwest region, which is ten kilometers outside the city, to check the unusual activities of the demon race and their various arrangements."

Yan Ming paused for a moment, then said seriously, "If you encounter a demon race team, deal with them according to the situation, understand?"

"clear."

Everyone answered in unison.

"Let's get in the car first. We'll split into teams after we leave the city."

After saying this, Yan Ming took the lead and got into the car, followed closely by the others.

As for Mo Hong, he was still the last one to get on the bus.

After everyone was on board, Yan Ming started the armored vehicle, heading straight for the outskirts of the city.

A dozen minutes later, the armored vehicle stopped in a deserted field outside the city, and everyone got out of the vehicle one after another.

"I've already decided on the group assignments. There will be three groups in total. Lin Yi and I will be in one group, Gao Fan and Jiang Nian will be in another group, and Huang Shen, Yang He, and you two will be in a group with Mo Hong."

The two people who were with Mo Hong looked slightly unpleasant after hearing this.

Although there are three people in their group, the two of them are only level 13, and Mo Hong is only level 12. It can be said that their group is the weakest, and they often have difficulty handling some tricky situations.

"Let's not delay, let's split into three groups and set off immediately."

After Yan Ming finished speaking, he left with the only girl in the group.

Gao Fan and Jiang Nian exchanged a glance and then left.

At this point, only Mo Hong and his two companions had not yet set off.

"Yang He, it seems we'll have to rely on the two of us this time."

The gaunt man, Huang Shen, smiled bitterly.

"It's alright, it's not like we haven't done missions before, we just need to be careful."

Yang He, on the other hand, seemed completely indifferent.

"Hey, newbie, your name is Mo Hong, right? Just stick with the two of us for a bit, and don't wander off!"

Huang Shen glanced at Mo Hong and offered a reminder.

Mo Hong nodded slightly, indicating that he understood.

Immediately, the three of them chose a direction and headed straight there.

Since the area outside the city was a barren grassland with virtually no cover, the three of them still moved at a moderate pace.

Along the way, Mo Hong saw a large number of corpses, mostly human and demon corpses, many of which were mutilated, which was enough to illustrate the brutality of the war.

The blood pooled together, staining the earth red and adding to the sorrow.

Mo Hong frowned as he watched this scene, feeling slightly uncomfortable, and his hatred for the demon race deepened.

"I will repay these demon scum tenfold when I become stronger in the future."

Mo Hong clenched his fists and thought to himself.

In that instant, Mo Hong's belief became even stronger.

"That son of a bitch, a demon."

Yang He's eyes turned bloodshot as he watched, and he couldn't help but curse.

Huang Shen, standing to the side, also had a somber expression and walked to the front without saying a word.

The three quickly quickened their pace, exploring deeper into the area to see if there were any unusual circumstances.

As they moved forward, Huang Shen and Yang He relied on their eyes to see, but the weeds were so thick that some were taller than a person, and their vision would become blurred after only a few dozen meters.

Mo Hong, on the other hand, developed a kind of spiritual perception after breaking through to the mid-stage of the first level of his artistic conception.

Even with his eyes closed, Mo Hong could still sense every rustle of wind and grass within a 150-meter radius, which was truly amazing.

Mo Hong hadn't had time to try it before, but this time, carrying out the reconnaissance mission, he found it very convenient.

Two kilometers.

Five kilometers.

Eight kilometers.

Even after the three of them had ventured ten kilometers deeper, they still hadn't discovered anything unusual.

"I knew it, it would definitely be the same as the past few days, no major problems."

After reaching the edge of the ten-kilometer radius, Yang He couldn't help but laugh.

"It seems the demon race is indeed making no move. Let's go back."

Huang Shen also breathed a sigh of relief and said easily.

Carrying out such a mission inherently carries the risk of death, so the two of them couldn't be happier doing it this way and were delighted to have an easy time.

At this point, the three decided to head straight back.

Mo Hong, on the other hand, had been using his mental perception to explore this area.

Suddenly, he sensed a creature in a certain direction, only a little over a hundred meters away from them, and it was slowly closing the distance.

Mo Hong's expression changed slightly, and he immediately used the purple mist to examine the creature's data.

Upon realizing it was a level 16 demonic beast, Mo Hong's expression changed drastically, and he roared, "Run! There's a demonic beast!"

The next instant, his blood and qi suddenly erupted, and he fled frantically backward.

"what's the situation?"

"What's gotten into this kid? Where's the monster?"

Seeing this strange scene, the two were slightly taken aback, and then looked around.

A distance of more than 100 meters.

At the same time, a tiger demon, three meters long and covered with purple stripes, realized it had been exposed after seeing Mo Hong's movements.

He immediately stopped hiding and ran straight towards the two people.

boom!

The tiger's body suddenly trembled, and he shot out like a streak of light, heading straight for them.

The two immediately noticed the huge commotion, and when they saw that it was a huge purple tiger demon, their faces turned pale instantly.

"What? It's a level sixteen monster! Run!"

Their hearts pounded as they frantically ran backward.

Suddenly, Huang Shen's eyes hardened, and he slammed his palm down behind Yang He.

Yang He was struck hard, his body slowed down, and he was instantly left behind by Huang Shen.

"Huang Shen, you beast!"

Yang He roared angrily from behind.

Huang Shen's eyes remained cold even after hearing this.

"There's no other way, brother. If you don't die, I won't live either."

Huang Shen narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking to himself.

The moment the tiger demon appeared, he immediately realized that only if Yang He helped him stall for time would he have a chance to survive.
