"How do you deal with the people who were killed or injured when the devil attacked?"
Li Ran came to the hunter hall and asked the receptionist girl with a sweet smile.
But before the sweet girl could answer, the expressions of all the players and aborigines in the hall, including Li Ran, changed.
[Trigger mission: Resist the third wave of demon attack. 】
[Task reward: guile +200, points +2000]
"The devil is attacking the city, hurry up!" a player shouted.
The players in the hunter hall immediately ran to the street.
There are already players on the street running towards the fortress wall at the end of the city.
The sweet girl in front of Li Ran suddenly transformed into a fierce samurai costume, carrying two samurai swords and walked towards the street.
At the same time, a low roar came from the middle of the town.
The fortress wall slowly rises from the ground, forming a high wall barrier to surround the town.
The natives and players of the hunter regiment, cavalry regiment, vanguard regiment, infantry regiment, city defense regiment, archer regiment, ballista regiment, and artillery regiment immediately ran towards the fortress wall.
When Li Ran came to the street, a beautiful white shadow fell in front of him.
Su Bingyao's magic value rose to 12,300, indicating that he had completed the scarecrow's mission just now.
"Chitong, come out."
Li Ran summoned Chi Tong and asked Chi Tong to protect Su Bingyao.
"Let's go." Su Bingyao didn't show any pretense.
After all, demon attacks are no child's play. The battlefield is changing rapidly. Her own strength is limited and she can't think about the future.
With Chi Tong protecting Su Bingyao, Li Ran would feel more at ease.
The two quickly flew towards the fortress wall.
Arriving on the city wall, all the regiments took their positions one after another.
With the experience of the previous two demon attacks, human players are already very self-disciplined and know what they should do and what their positioning is on the battlefield.
As soon as the mission is triggered, no matter what they are doing, they will rush back to defend the city as soon as possible.
This is the key to whether the human camp can survive to the end.
On the third day, the approximate number of players in the human camp remained at around 600.
The rate of player death decline has been significantly slowed down.
In almost less than ten minutes, the natives and players of each regiment were in place.
Everyone stood ready, waiting for the demon to attack.
But as time passed by, everyone discovered something was wrong.
So quiet!
From the fortress to Black Wind Ridge, the entire battlefield area was as quiet as death.
The sound of a few black crows "yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa"" floating across the sky was extremely harsh and loud.
"What's going on, where's the devil?" Yang Feng, a mercenary player, looked in the direction of the battlefield in confusion.
Where was the mighty black tide-like demon army from the past two days?
There was no sign of opening even at the boundary of Black Wind Ridge.
"Didn't we attack the city today?" Sloan's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.
"How is it possible? Isn't the mission triggered?"
"Yes, we all have trigger tasks, and the third wave has already begun."
All the players were dumbfounded. They were asked to resist the demon attack, but there were no demons on the battlefield.
There was not a single demon anywhere in the sky, woods, hills, and mountains as far as the eye could see.
Li Ran and Su Bingyao looked in the direction of Black Wind Ridge with their eyebrows furrowed.
"Woo?"
Xiao Chitong was lying on Su Bingyao's shoulder with a confused look in her eyes.
"The triggering of the mission means that the demon attack has begun, but now there is no movement at all. Are they stuck in the barrier and unable to get out?" Su Bingyao said.
Li Ran glanced at Heifeng Ridge, trying to see what hints Golden Finger could give.
Most of the time, Goldfinger needs to see the real thing before it will give a clear hint. It rarely gives hints in situations like the current situation where people are chasing the wind and shadows.
"I'll go to Black Wind Ridge and have a look." Li Ran said.
As soon as he finished speaking, several people on the city wall flew towards the Black Wind Ridge.
After someone took the lead, those players who could fly followed one after another.
Li Ran and Su Bingyao looked at each other and jumped into the air.
"Is the battlefield cleaned every day? Why is there not even a corpse?" Li Ran asked curiously.
Su Bingyao said: "Every time a demon attack ends, a battlefield cleaning corps will clean up the aftermath, and they will take away all the corpses. Battlefield cleaning is generally the right of the victor. It will first check the life and death of the enemy, secondly seize supplies and weapons, and finally That’s burying it.”
"Where will the bodies of dead players be taken?" Li Ran asked.
Su Bingyao turned back and pointed to a white building in the back hill of the town and said, "The crematorium."
Li Ran looked back and saw that there was indeed a white tower-like building halfway up the mountain behind the city.
Having said that, even though he has the Eye of God, he doesn't understand the structure of the town better than Su Bingyao.
This is so inappropriate.
"Then I have to go to the crematorium to find the corpses with missing arms and legs."
Li Ran planned to go to the crematorium after the demon siege was over. If it ended early, he could go there after the demon siege was over. If not, he would have to wait until tomorrow.
There were about thirty or forty players with the ability to fly, and they all flew towards the boundary of Black Wind Ridge.
When the demon attacks in the first two days, the barrier will open like burning pages.
But when everyone flew closer, they found that the barrier completely covered the ground without any cracks.
"The Demon Army card bug is gone?" a player questioned.
"The mission is not over, which means the devil's attack is still going on."
"Is it an existence invisible to our naked eyes?"
"Whoever has the tools to see through invisibility, please take a look."
Li Ran had already scanned it with clairvoyance glasses and spiritual senses. There were no invisible demons on this battlefield, and there were no signs of life.
So he could boldly fly to Black Wind Ridge to find out whether the demon was still within the barrier.
"Go back first. I don't like this feeling of the enemy being in the dark and me being in the light."
"Me too, I feel an ominous premonition."
Everyone also felt uneasy and flew back in the direction of the fortress wall.
Li Ran and Su Bingyao also returned to the city wall.
"It's so strange. Could it be that the devil can also plan an empty city?" Su Bingyao frowned and said.
Li Ran tried all methods, whether it was spiritual senses or clairvoyant glasses, he scanned the town and the battlefield, but still could not find the devil.
"Shua!!!"
Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air not far from the city wall.
Li Ran and Su Bingyao looked doubtfully in the direction of the archery corps. Their expressions changed slightly and their pupils trembled.
Ten archer regiments stood in rows on the city wall. A cutting blade that twisted the air slashed across the city wall. The heads of the ten archers flew into the air like balloons, spraying columns of blood.
The sudden scene shocked all the players.
The ten archers were a small team composed of players and aborigines. They were ordered by the regiment leader to observe the enemy's situation on the city wall. The ten archers stood in a row and looked directly at the battlefield.
But who would have thought that in an instant, ten people would be dead and in different places!
"Devil, there is a demon!!" A player in the archer corps was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, staring at a huge silhouette in front of him with a horrified face. The huge silhouette killed ten archers and then disappeared again, like Nothing has ever happened.
The players on the fortress wall were all dumbfounded. They saw the ten heads separated from their bodies, but they could do nothing.
"Bang!!"
A red signal flare shot high into the sky on the city wall, and the eye-catching red halo dyed the city wall red and dyed everyone's faces red.
At this moment, everyone believed in the existence of the devil.
The demon has no lag bug.
There is one or more demons lurking in places invisible to human eyes, waiting for opportunities.
"Devils can become invisible, everyone, be careful not to expose your head higher than the city wall." The leader of the archery corps shouted.
For a time, the archers, artillery soldiers, and ballistae soldiers quickly buried their heads under the city wall, and no one dared to stand up on the city wall.
The ten severed heads rolled down on the city wall. They were still blinking, as if they hadn't realized that they were dead. Some looked confused and didn't understand why their perspective was on the ground...
It wasn't until they saw ten headless corpses falling slowly that they realized something.
However, it was too late, they could not control their bodies, and their eyes were getting darker and darker.
"Level 1 alert, level 1 alert!"
The leader of the city defense army shouted.
All the natives and players looked solemn and on alert.
"Damn it, what kind of demon is this? Why can't it be discovered by any means?" shouted the players of the mercenary group under the city wall.
After the first level of alert, several regiments that needed to enter the battlefield to fight all retreated to the inner wall, and everyone looked terrified.
"Here...here...ah!!!"
Suddenly, under the inner wall, a mercenary player made a sound, but mid-sentence turned into a shrill scream.
When people followed the sound and left, they only saw a body that was split into two halves...
"How could this happen? Can't this demon see it?" Yang Feng said with a look of horror on his face.
Everyone in the mercenary group huddled together under the wall, as if countless invisible demons were wandering around them.
"How many invisible demons are there?"
"Has anyone read the guide? Has this situation ever happened?" Sloan also panicked. The devil was far more powerful than they imagined.
You can't see or feel it, and when the devil gets close, you don't know how you died.
How can one resist this?
"ah!!!"
Another scream came, this time on the street in the city. When everyone looked at it, the body of an aborigine who had been cut off at the waist fell in a pool of blood.
"I'm not going to defend anymore. I'm going to hide in the tavern."
"How can you defend yourself if you don't know how to fucking die?"
"I don't want to die in an unknown way either."
For a time, people were panicked, and many players gave up. The morale built up in the previous two days was gone at this moment.
“Here, here I am!!!”
A scream came from the city wall, and a player ran wildly on the city wall.
"Pfft!!!"
Suddenly, his chest was pierced by an invisible sharp blade, and he was skewered into the air as if he were being skewered with sharp objects.
Blood slowly dripped onto the ground from the outline of a transparent blade on the player's chest.
Seeing that the player would not survive.
Under everyone's horrified gaze, the player suddenly turned his head and spat out a mouthful of blood behind him.
The mouthful of blood sprayed onto a huge, twisted and ferocious outline, and the blood stained a ferocious face.
"Hahaha, I finally see the true face of this bitch!" The player opened his blood-stained teeth and laughed.
But the next second, an invisible sharp blade struck his head, and his laughter stopped abruptly.
The blood-stained ferocious demon turned its head and flew behind it. You could see the outline of wings flapping rapidly on its back, but before it flew very far, the monster mysteriously disappeared into the air.
The smiles that had just appeared on everyone's faces disappeared instantly.
This means that everything the player who just died was in vain.
All players looked ashen again.
Facing the unknown, the inner fear is infinitely magnified. Once fear takes over, a person's spiritual will is not far away from being defeated.
"Do you see anything?"
Su Bingyao noticed that Li Ran's brows were furrowed and his eyes were extremely sharp, as if he had discovered something.
"It's a different-dimensional killing. No wonder I can't sense this guy with any method." Li Ran said solemnly.
"What is dimensional killing?" Su Bingyao asked in confusion.
Li Ran explained: "A dimensional plane parallel to the real world. People and monsters with different-dimensional killing abilities can travel through this dimensional plane, unless they have super mental power, are unusually sensitive to space fluctuations, or can see through it." Dimensional vision, otherwise it would be difficult to find demons traveling through dimensions.”
When the invisible demon evacuated after killing someone, Li Ran saw very slight spatial fluctuations in the place where the demon disappeared. The form of this slight fluctuation was almost exactly the same as Miss Saori when she traveled through different dimensions.
The fluctuations in space are very subtle and difficult to detect with the naked eye. Li Ran is because the blood stains on the demon's body caused very subtle spatial ripples when it entered the dimensional world.
"This demon not only has the ability to kill from another dimension, but it can also become invisible, which is very troublesome." Li Ran frowned.
Li Ran entered his consciousness into the contract space. On a dark lake, a strange and pale huge dead tree stood quietly in the darkness.
On this pale dead branch, a girl in black lay lazily on the branch and fell asleep.
"You wouldn't come to my place unless you were in trouble." Miss Saori still closed her eyes, opened her teeth slightly, and a cold voice echoed in the air.
"I remember you said that you can't fight in the dimensional world, so is there any way to drive out the monsters traveling in the dimensional world?" Li Ran asked.
In a state of indentured servitude, Miss Saori could not resist Li Ran's wishes.
Even if Miss Saori resists in her heart, she must respect the slave's will, otherwise she may be punished by thunder.
Miss Shazhi opened her eyes and slowly floated down from the pale demon tree. Her fair and exquisite feet stepped on the water and walked slowly towards Li Ran.
"Have you encountered such a monster?" Miss Saori asked.
"Well, it's the third wave of demon attacks. My feeling is that there is only one demon general. If all the demon armies have the ability to travel between different dimensions, the demons can directly crush them into the city, and there is no need to engage in latent guerrilla warfare." Li Ran said.
"So, you want me to help you force it out of the dimensional world?" Miss Saori asked.
"Didn't you say that you can't use skills in the dimensional world? How can you force it out?"
Miss Shazhi's little feet were very small and delicate, as white as if they were made of jade. She touched the water with her exquisite little feet and whispered to Li Ran: "The space in the dimensional world is very unstable. A little turmoil, and the storms of the dimension will tear it apart.”
"How to make it unstable?" Li Ran asked.
Li Ran originally planned to let Miss Saori deal with the demon, but he canceled the idea.
Two monsters traveling through the dimensional world cannot fight at all, because they cannot fight or use skills in the dimensional world.
When a battle occurs in the dimensional world, a tearing storm will form, tearing everything apart and then reorganizing it.
"You have to seize the opportunity." Miss Saori continued to light her feet on the calm water, and circles of water ripples spread on the water.
Li Ran stared at the circles of ripples, his eyes condensed, and he said: "I understand."
After saying that, he exited the contract space, turned to Su Bingyao and said, "I know how to deal with it."
Su Bingyao looked at Li Ran in shock and asked, "Do you need me to help you?"
"Yes, but you have to be careful." Li Ran nodded, but was worried.
After all, the devil this time is special, killing people invisible and appearing and disappearing.
"I have the means to protect myself, so I won't die that easily." Su Bingyao said seriously.
"Um."
Li Ran told Su Bingyao his plan.
"Isn't it too risky?" Su Bingyao covered her mouth in surprise after hearing this.
"If you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cub. This demon general is very cunning. If you don't do this, the demon may not be fooled." Li Ran said.
Su Bingyao nodded. Although she felt that Li Ran's strategy was too risky, it seemed to be the best way to defeat the demon.
After discussing the strategy, Li Ran stood up and walked slowly on the city wall.
"Boy, you don't want your life, hide now!"
A city defense player shouted at Li Ran.
Li Ran seemed not to hear and continued to walk swaggeringly on the city wall.
"This kid is crazy, don't kill him."
"You must be scared."
Several people tried to persuade him, but Li Ran refused to listen. Not only did he walk in a swaggering manner, he also walked in a conspicuous place and poked his head out of the city wall from time to time.
"No, demons probably don't have high IQs. Am I too arrogant and obvious?" Li Ran thought to himself.
He was just gambling.
Just imagine, if you had invisibility and the ability to travel through dimensions, as well as the powerful combat power of killing people invisible, would you be able to float, be arrogant, and not take everything seriously?
Li Ran was betting on this devil. He was arrogant and did not take him seriously.
His actions clearly seemed to be a trap, but for a devil with eyes above his head, would he be afraid of this trap?
Damn it, the devil has this invincible ability, is it so scared?
Of course, this is just Li Ran's conjecture. He is not powerful enough to guess the devil's thoughts.
However, Li Ran felt that he had made the right bet, and he smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.
Suddenly, there was a wave behind him that was imperceptible to the naked eye.
This fluctuation is very short and rapid.
By the time he felt it, an invisible huge sharp blade had already slashed from his head to the soles of his feet!
