Early morning, breakfast.

When Long Haochen and Caier appeared before their companions, including Gao Yingjie, everyone looked at them with a somewhat strange expression.

Caier couldn’t see, but she also sensed a slight change in the atmosphere, but she wore a black veil, so others couldn’t see the expression on her face.

The other nine newly promoted Demon Hunt Squads were also having breakfast in the dining hall, and they would continue their journey later.

Lin Xin leaned close to Long Haochen’s ear and whispered, “Not bad, Captain. You truly are a young hero.”

Long Haochen asked, puzzled, “What’s wrong?”

Lin Xin chuckled and said, “Last night, the team leader went to your room to find you but couldn’t find you. It seems like you didn’t return to your room all night. Practice moderation, moderation.”

Only then did Long Haochen realize why his companions had such strange expressions on their faces, and he became somewhat embarrassed. “Eat, let’s eat quickly.” As he said this, he first scooped a bowl of porridge for Caier and took some food. He also started eating.

Sima Xian’s expression wasn’t as lewd as Lin Xin’s, but he also looked at Long Haochen strangely, even giving him a thumbs up discreetly.

Long Haochen lowered his head and ate, completely ignoring them.

As they finished breakfast and re-boarded the carriage, Gao Yingjie, as he passed by Long Haochen, said seemingly casually, “Things are developing a little fast!”

The corner of Long Haochen’s mouth twitched, but he ultimately didn’t explain anything to the others. He couldn’t possibly say that he didn’t do anything, could he? In fact, this morning, when Caier woke up from her sleep, she felt that he wasn’t covered by anything, so she quietly pulled open the blanket and covered him as well. And the morning Long Haochen no longer had the restraint that had been infinitely strengthened by his emotions last night, holding Caier’s warm and delicate body in the blanket, it really tested his strong will. With a guilty conscience, he could only accept his companions’ teasing.

Caier, on the other hand, wasn’t so shy. Her shyness and her heart would only be revealed to her silly one. In the eyes of others, she was still the cold, aloof, number one assassin of the younger generation.

For the next ten days, the members of the ten newly promoted Demon Hunt Squads spent almost all their time in the carriage. They traveled from dawn till dusk, heading straight for the eastern frontier of the Alliance.

Gao Yingjie, as he had said, would spend some time each day imparting his experience to Long Haochen. Although he was speaking to Long Haochen, others could naturally hear him as well. Over the ten days, everyone felt that they had benefited greatly.

At the same time, with the help of Lin Xin’s Spirit Gathering Pills, the inner spiritual power of Sima Xian and Chen Ying’er improved rapidly. Of course, Shi Xiaoxue didn’t receive the same treatment with Spirit Gathering Pills. After all, she wasn’t a member of the Demon Hunt Squad, and the cost of making pills was quite considerable.

During this time, everyone’s positions in the team were also established. Long Haochen was the captain, and Caier, with her strongest actual combat power, was the vice-captain. Lin Xin was responsible for all financial matters of the team. The equally carefree Sima Xian and Wang Yuanyuan didn’t manage anything and were only responsible for combat. Chen Ying’er naturally managed even less.

Devil Expulsion City, a vital frontier town of the Temple Alliance. This was a city that was almost a fortress, located between two mountains in the center of the Devil Blocking Mountain Range. It was situated in a strategically important location, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Devil Expulsion City, also known as Devil Expulsion Pass, can be said to be the gate of the Devil Blocking Mountain Range, which stretches for thousands of miles. It is the most important pass for the Temple Alliance to resist the demons in the east. Inside Devil Expulsion City is a basin in the Devil Blocking Mountain Range. Behind it is a large plain. In other words, once Devil Expulsion Pass is breached, the demonic army can drive straight in.

Therefore, the Temple Alliance has stationed heavy troops here. At the same time, the main hall of the Assassin Temple, one of the six major temples, is also located here. This is also where Caier grew up.

Just today at noon, ten carriages from the Holy City entered Devil Expulsion City. Ten newly formed Demon Hunt Squads in the Holy City were arranged by the Assassin Temple to stay in the executive hall located in the eastern part of Devil Expulsion City.

After dinner, all ten newly promoted Demon Hunt Squads, who had rested for an afternoon, gathered in the executive hall’s conference hall, led by their respective team leaders. They had arrived at their destination for this mission.

The ten Demon Hunt Squads sat in ten rows, with the captain of each squad sitting in the front. Long Haochen was in the first row, and Yang Wenzhao was sitting next to him.

Yang Wenzhao occasionally turned his head to look at Chen Ying’er, who was sitting behind the first-grade Demon Hunt Squad, but Chen Ying’er didn’t look at him, her gaze drifting around.

Long Haochen waved to Li Xin, who was sitting two rows away. Li Xin was the vice-captain of the fourth-grade Demon Hunt Squad and held a very high position in the team.

The ten Demon Hunt Squad leaders were all sitting on the stage, but two positions were left empty in the center, indicating that someone else would be coming.

Footsteps sounded, and everyone subconsciously turned their heads towards the door, only to see a man and a woman walk into the conference hall under the escort of several soldiers in full military attire.

The two of them looked to be around thirty years old. The man was wearing a neat black military uniform with gold trim, dignified and somewhat luxurious. He was tall and handsome, with short, deep purple hair that looked very energetic. His eyes shone with a faint arrogance. His gaze was sharp as a knife. As soon as he entered the conference hall, he brought a chilling aura to the huge hall.

The woman walking beside him was wearing a water-blue magic robe, and it seemed like rich water elements were dancing around her body. She looked younger than the man beside her, with long light blue hair and picturesque features, naturally beautiful. Her eyes, revealing a seductive look, swept over the crowd, as if searching for something.

Seeing this couple, Long Haochen couldn’t help but be slightly stunned. He didn’t know why, but he felt a sense of familiarity in his heart.

Soon, the two of them arrived on the stage. The ten Temple Knight leaders had already stood up to wait, and Gao Yingjie took the initiative to greet them and say hello.

“Brother Gao.” The man’s voice seemed a little excited, and he stepped forward and gave Gao Yingjie a big hug. The woman smiled and nodded to Gao Yingjie, then stood aside.

Hearing the man’s voice, Caier’s delicate body trembled slightly behind Long Haochen, but she quickly returned to normal, her beautiful face still icy cold.

Gao Yingjie turned to the young Demon Hunt Squad members below the stage. “Let me introduce you. This is Devil Expulsion City’s military chief, Sheng Lingxin. Chief Sheng is also the deputy commander of the Devil Blocking Military Region and the youngest King-level assassin in the Saint Alliance.”

King-level assassin? That is, a seventh-tier assassin. This Chief Sheng looked no more than thirty years old. Could there be such a young seventh-tier powerhouse? For a moment, the eyes of these proud sons of heaven selected by the six major temples couldn’t help but show a bit of admiration.

Sheng Lingxin smiled slightly and said, “Brother Gao is too kind. I am already thirty-seven years old this year, so I can’t be considered young anymore. You are the real young talents. I hope that this time in the Devil Blocking Military Region, in my Devil Expulsion City, you can all show your skills.”

Gao Yingjie turned to the woman, but at this time, the woman’s gaze fell on the crowd, her gaze changed slightly, with sadness, longing, and some other things.

“This is Devil Expulsion City’s mage regiment leader, the Magic Temple’s Devil Expulsion City branch hall master, Grand Mage Lan Yanyu.”

Sheng Lingxin gently touched the somewhat dazed Lan Yanyu. Only then did she react and nodded to the crowd below the stage, but she didn’t say anything, and the direction of her gaze never changed.

Long Haochen noticed this strangeness, because the position Lan Yanyu was looking at was exactly on his side. Was she looking at Caier?

Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu sat in the center of the stage. Sheng Lingxin said in a deep voice, “Welcome everyone to Devil Expulsion City. First, let me introduce the current situation of the Devil Blocking Military Region and Devil Expulsion City, and then I will arrange your mission for this trip. I hope that when you leave here, you will be able to return with a full load of merit points.”

“The scope of the Devil Blocking Military Region includes the entire Devil Blocking Mountain Range. The Devil Blocking Mountain Range stretches for 1,654 kilometers from north to south, with undulating mountains. Most of the mountains are steep and easy to defend and difficult to attack, which is the natural barrier of our Temple Alliance’s eastern territory. Six thousand years ago, our predecessors used the Devil Blocking Mountain Range as a natural danger to defend against the demons from the outside, thus stabilizing the alliance, and that is how we have today.”

“At present, the Devil Blocking Military Region is mainly managed and commanded by our Assassin Temple, with the other five major temples assisting. There are more than 200,000 garrison troops. Among them, the most important gateway to the Devil Blocking Mountain Range, which is where you are now, Devil Expulsion City, has a garrison of 80,000. The Assassin Temple specially set up its headquarters here to show its determination to resist the enemy to the death. For the six thousand years of the dark age, the Devil Blocking Military Region and Devil Expulsion City have experienced thousands of attacks by the demons, but they have always stood firm. Here, countless of our predecessors have left their blood and tears, but they have also left the vile lives of countless demon invaders.”

Listening to Sheng Lingxin’s words, the assassins in the ten newly promoted Demon Hunt Squads, except for Caier, all clearly showed excitement and pride. Devil Expulsion City itself is a holy place for assassins, and being able to come here to participate in the war is a great honor for them.

“The demon’s autumn offensive has already begun, and the warriors of the six major temples are fighting to the death. You will be assigned to ten infantry battalions respectively, starting from the most ordinary infantry soldiers, and fighting together with ordinary soldiers. In the army, you will not have any privileges. Heroically killing the enemy will not only allow you to obtain merit points, but it is also the only way to improve your military rank. The team with the higher merit points will gradually be able to receive more important tasks from me. In the three months, what you can achieve depends on your own efforts. The freedom of this trial is very high, and what you can achieve depends on your own efforts. You must remember that once a member of any of your teams dies, the Demon Hunt Squad will automatically disband, and all the merit tokens of the team will be taken back. On the battlefield, personal strength is always small, and teamwork is your inevitable path.”
