The demon that Anno is tracking, according to the [Observer], is a level 35, sixth-tier peak winged demon.

Judging from his attribute values, he is just an elite demon, and there is still a big gap between him and a Swift Walker.

However, infiltrating Sagunto at this time and operating covertly at night seems highly suspicious.

"His movements seem to have no discernible pattern, but in reality, he stays in each area for a period of time before moving on to the next area."

After following and observing for a while, Anno realized that the Feathered Demon seemed to be investigating or searching for something.

At this point in time, Anno immediately thought of the seal on Sagunto.

"I thought Leopold and his group would quiet down for a while after the appearance of the God Hunters, but I didn't expect them to make new moves so soon."

For a god, a few years or decades are but a very short time.

Knowing full well that there are god hunters on the dwarven border, continuing to act is tantamount to dancing on the edge of a knife.

"Or is it that this winged demon isn't one of Leopold's followers?"

To find out the truth, you need to press the other party for answers.

For Anno, capturing the other party was simple.

Once the distance is closed, the Evil King's True Eye can capture him and bring him into the Evil King's Domain.

However, Anno was worried that the other party might have accomplices.

If we attack the Feathered Demons ahead now, it might startle the other demons who have infiltrated.

......

"No!"

"It's not here either!"

"Still not here!"

Because the detection device in hand can only detect a radius of 100 meters, while Sagunto is a large city with a very large area.

Therefore, for the Feathered Demons, finding the seal is a huge undertaking.

However, today marks the ninth day since the Feathered Demons infiltrated the area, and they have been making their move every night.

Through their efforts, the Feathered Demon and his companions have cleared most of the area.

But the closer it got to the end, the more anxious the Feathered Demon became.

Whenever he confirmed that an area was unsealed, he felt a strange sense of unease.

He was very worried that even after eliminating all areas, he still couldn't find the location of the seal.

"Damn it, it's already late at night, and the number of soldiers patrolling the city has actually increased."

The Feathered Demon lay on the thick snow on the roof, waiting for the patrolling dwarf soldiers below to leave. Just as he was about to head to the next area, another patrol of soldiers emerged from around the street corner.

Killing the patrolling soldiers is easy.

However, Sagunto will also realize that there are enemies in the city, and the security forces will definitely be strengthened again.

This will increase the difficulty of the investigation for the Feathered Demon and his companions.

"Hey, who are you people?"

In the quiet of the night, this small sound was extremely jarring to the Feathered Demon's ears.

"We've been discovered?"

Feather Demon was startled.

But he quickly realized that the sound was coming from behind him, which is why it was so quiet when it reached him.

The patrol team below, who also heard the sound, rushed towards the location behind the Feathered Demon.

"later?"

The Feathered Demon looked behind him in confusion, and then saw several dark figures leaping up from the roof and rushing towards him.

......

"Hey, who are you people?"

Anno looked down at the dwarf soldier questioning him and at the empty patch of snow at his feet, and black lines appeared on his forehead.

It was this patch of snow that caught the attention of passing soldiers, who then came to investigate and discovered the unusual situation.

"I didn't expect to be spotted by the patrol team first."

Anno had no time to explain to the dwarf soldiers. He and the other two, including Liz, leaped up to capture the winged demons ahead.

"stop!"

Seeing this, the dwarf soldiers chased after them from below while blowing their whistles.

The night patrol soldiers had long been ordered by Lord Owen to immediately arrest any suspicious individuals who infiltrated the city recently.

At this time, Anno was not sleeping in the middle of the night, but was lying on the snow-covered eaves, which made him a suspicious person in the eyes of the dwarf soldiers.

"It's them!"

The Feathered Demon also possessed night vision and immediately recognized Anno and Liz beside him as the humans they had encountered in the alley earlier.

When the Feather Demon saw Anno rushing over, he knew he was being followed.

Recalling Anno's behavior in the alley, a shadow fell over the Feather Demon's face.

"I've been tricked!"

Whoosh!

The Feathered Demon vanished from his spot in an instant, leaping into the alley below.

As a member of the Feathered Demon race, speed is his forte.

"Trying to run away."

Seeing the Feathered Demon leap from the rooftop, Anno immediately called out to his side, "Sasser!"

Inside the alley, Anno couldn't see the other person, so he had no way to pull them into the Evil King's Domain.

"learn!"

The petite, white-haired girl responded and then suddenly sped up.

Sassiel in human form is a [Thief] class.

It's much faster than Anno.

In the blink of an eye, Sassi's figure disappeared into the alley below.

While running, Liz took out a medicine test tube, uncorked it, and drank the blood of the Thunder Eagle inside.

boom!

Liz, who had jumped into the air, suddenly swelled up and turned into a thunder eagle—although Liz's wings could also fly, they were not as fast as the thunder eagle's.

Worried about slowing down after transforming, Liz didn't take Anno with her. Instead, she flew in mid-air to point out the location of the Feathered Demon and Sassiel to Anno.

"Ella, here are the previous clearance documents and the mission order for 'Reclaiming Lost Territory.' Stay here and explain everything to the dwarf soldiers."

After leaving the two documents with Ella, Anno immediately summoned the Shadow Wolf.

"[Combined]!"

After Anno and the Shadow Wolf merged, they became a black-furred werewolf over two meters tall.

Anno then plunged into the shadows beside him, and then emerged from another shadow a hundred meters away.

"Don't move!"

Not long after Anor left, Ella, who was standing still, was surrounded by a group of dwarven musketeers who had run onto the roof.

Upon discovering that Ella was a succubus, the dwarves immediately placed their fingers on the triggers of their muskets, ready to fire at any moment.

Although Ella was only at the fifth rank, these low-ranking dwarf soldiers, except for the captain, were no match for her at all.

"Dwarven soldiers, I am not your enemy! My master is Anno, the guild master of the Adventurers' Guild, and he is currently tracking a demon lurking within the city..."

Ella took out the two documents given to her by Anno and handed them to the fourth-tier dwarf captain, who was being watched warily by a group of dwarves.

Upon hearing Ella's explanation and noting the presence of Lord Owen's seal on the document, half of the doubts in the other party's mind dissipated.

Then, at Ella's suggestion, the dwarf captain ordered an alarm to be sounded and someone to notify the city lord.

He and Ella followed the tracks Sassi had deliberately left in the snow.

Based on the location provided by Liz flying above, Anno used the Shadow Wolf's [Shadow Space Travel] skill to quickly close the distance.

The winged demon kept weaving through the alleys, but he just couldn't shake off Sassi behind him.

Moreover, the distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer.

"In that case, I'll deal with you first!"

At a corner of an alley, the Feathered Demon did not continue to run away, but hid in the corner waiting for Sasser to approach.

Five seconds later, a white-haired girl appeared at the corner with a gust of wind, then stepped on the wall and launched herself out.

swish swish...  

In the darkness, dozens of streaks of light, like a rain of lightning, struck Sasser's body.

Pfft!

Sassi lost her balance and fell to the ground, smashing through a wall.

Although she dodged most of the attacks, Sassi was still pierced by more than a dozen sharp feathers, and blood flowed down her wounds.

"Go to hell!"

The Feathered Demons gave Sasser no time to catch her breath.

In a flash, he arrived at the spot where Sasser had fallen and hurled hundreds of feathers at Sasser within seconds.
