The power of the Saintly Attraction Spiritual Stove was undoubtedly revealed at this moment. The dark cyan blade of light descending from the sky, influenced by the Saintly Attraction Spiritual Stove’s effect on the Beta Flying Demon, was forcibly bent and aimed straight at Long Haochen. When it changed direction, it was less than five meters away from Zhang Hairong.

The Saintly Spirit Shield protected him, resulting in a loud crash. Long Haochen’s body was forcibly slammed down from the air.

He was in a charging state and unable to use Divine Shield Parry. Fortunately, this was just an ordinary Beta Flying Demon. Long Haochen landed but was not injured.

Influenced by the Saintly Attraction Spiritual Stove, the Beta Flying Demon dove down instantly, dozens of wind blades flashing with dark cyan light concentrated on Long Haochen.

The most annoying thing about Beta Flying Demons is their attack speed. The wind attribute allows them to be extremely fast in both flight and attack. Moreover, they use innate skills, which are almost instantaneous. Their attacks are also powerful, with all attacks being dual-attribute. They often launch surprise attacks from the air.

Fiery red light instantly opened in front of Long Haochen, it was Lin Xin’s Elemental Shield. His defensive magic was not only strong, but also extremely fast due to the Fire Cloud Crystal.

Piercing shrieks continued to explode in the air, the Beta Flying Demon’s wind blades were all blocked by the fire element shield.

The Beta Flying Demon wasn’t stupid, their intelligence was quite high due to their lineage. Seeing that the situation wasn’t good, the Beta Flying Demon spread its wings and prepared to ascend and escape.

But, it couldn’t leave.

When it swooped down to attack Long Haochen, it had already approached within twenty-five meters of Long Haochen. Saintly Attraction Spiritual Stove, Attraction activated.

Being at the same rank, Long Haochen’s Saintly Attraction Spiritual Stove naturally couldn’t pull the Beta Flying Demon down, but it was enough to delay it.

A huge shield, glittering with sharp light, rose into the air, and a hammer shining with holy light came from the side.

The Beta Flying Demon erupted a layer of dark cyan light to try and resist these two attacks.

However, Wang Yuanyuan and Sima Xian both used their full strength.

In a deafening roar, the Beta Flying Demon in the air let out a shrill scream. Half of its left wing was already broken.

The priest’s Holy Light Hammer already dealt significant damage to demons. It directly negated the Beta Flying Demon’s defense, and how could Wang Yuanyuan’s Giant Spirit God Shield be so easily blocked? Fortunately, this Beta Flying Demon’s body was strong enough that only half of its wing was broken. But the breaking of half of its wing already made it unable to maintain balance. Its body instantly fell towards the ground.

Dark golden light soared into the sky. Zhang Hairong, who had just woken up from his shock, only saw the petite girl behind Long Haochen touch the ground with the azure bamboo staff in her hand. In the next instant after the bamboo staff bent, she had already risen into the air twenty meters. Immediately afterwards, phantom-like dark gold flickered back and forth in the air seven or eight times. That figure fell from the sky along with the Beta Flying Demon.

Without allowing the Beta Flying Demon to fall to the ground, Lin Xin pointed his Fire Cloud Crystal, a ring of fire ensnared the Beta Flying Demon, which had already become a corpse, and pulled it backward. In the next moment, it disappeared into his awesome storage ring.

The huge commotion behind them caused even the elite armored warriors who had just gone up to the front to turn their heads and watch. Seeing a Beta Flying Demon being killed like that, they were also greatly shocked.

Were those ordinary infantry battalion people? When did the infantry battalion have mages and assassins?

Long Haochen and his team had already retreated with Zhang Hairong and the warriors of the First Infantry Battalion. At this time, the infantrymen looked at them with changed expressions, clearly with a bit of awe.

Because of the addition of Long Haochen and his team, the First Infantry Battalion’s casualties today had been greatly reduced, with only a dozen dead and no more than fifty injured. This was unprecedented. One had to know that the fastest to be depleted on the battlefield were these low-ranking infantrymen.

“Brother, thanks,” Zhang Hairong patted Long Haochen’s shoulder, laughing heartily.

Long Haochen said, “We are your guards, protecting you is our duty.”

Zhang Hairong gave him a deep look, gave him a thumbs up, and led the infantrymen off the city wall. As they retreated, one could see that there were already clusters of golden light in the sky. At least a hundred knights riding flying mounts had joined the battlefield. Their target was the Maxias family’s Beta Flying Demons, one of which had just been killed by Long Haochen and his team.

Long Haochen and his team didn’t notice that as they retreated from the city wall, a pair of beautiful eyes with complex emotions had been following their figures all along. Until they completely disappeared.

On the city wall, Saint Spirit Heart stood in the center in military attire, her gaze stern. Orders were constantly being issued, and the Exorcist City was operating at high speed like a precise machine. A series of arrangements were constantly being made to counter the demonic army’s frantic attack.

A full 1,100 mages were divided into ten groups, taking turns casting spells under the command of Lan Yanyu. After releasing their spells, they immediately went to the rear to accumulate magic power. There were also twenty Guardian Knights specifically releasing the same Spirit Gathering Aura as Long Haochen to assist them.

With the heavy firepower bombardment from these mages and magic cannons, the attacking demons suffered heavy losses.

Appearing on the Exorcist City at the same time as the elite warriors was a special army of 3,000 people. They were only wearing light leather armor, and each of them had dual short blades, moving around on the city wall. Once they found powerful demons charging onto the city wall, they would immediately assist the elite warriors in launching ambushes.

This was the power directly under the Assassin Temple. Only the Assassin Temple could mobilize such a large number of mid- to high-level assassins at the same time. The cultivation of these assassins was at least at the fourth rank or higher. They were the backbone of the Exorcist City.

After leaving the Exorcist City, Zhang Hairong led his soldiers back to the barracks quickly. The wounded were sent for treatment, and the dead were registered and then transported by dedicated logistics personnel to be cremated.

“Go back and seize the time to rest, God knows how long those demon cubs will attack. Maybe we will be on the battlefield again soon. Dismissed.”

The infantrymen dispersed in an orderly manner, each returning to the barracks. Most of them couldn’t help but look at the seven-man team behind Zhang Hairong as they left, and many soldiers gave them a thumbs up. Especially those warriors who had received enhancements and protection from Han Yu and Lin Xin.

Long Haochen straightened his chest. At this moment, he felt like a fire was burning in his heart. Yes! Only by truly experiencing war can one feel the cruelty of war and the feelings of comrades. The warriors didn’t express anything to them in words, but their gestures and eyes had already explained a lot. Long Haochen knew that their Grade-1 No. 1 Demon Hunt Squad had truly gained the recognition of the warriors of the First Battalion after this battle.

Zhang Hairong turned to look at Long Haochen and his team of seven, laughed heartily, and said: “You are all great. Hurry back and wash up and rest earlier. Things on the battlefield are uncertain, maybe you won’t be able to rest for long before you have to go up again. The most tragic battle once lasted for seven days and seven nights. Our garrison was reduced to less than 10,000 people before we repelled the demonic army. However, the demons also suffered heavy losses that time, and they didn’t bother us again for three months. It is said that in that battle alone, more than twenty eighth-level powerhouses were injured on both sides.”

“Yes, Battalion Commander.” Long Haochen’s military salute was obviously a bit more standard.

Zhang Hairong sighed lightly, “How great it would be if you were always warriors of my First Battalion. However, I’m afraid we won’t be together for too long.” After saying this, he turned and left, his eyes full of regret. However, he also knew that he couldn’t keep the elite Demon Hunt Squad members.

There was a small room specially used for washing outside each barrack room. In fact, only Long Haochen, Sima Xian, and Wang Yuanyuan, who were at the front, really needed to wash. The other four were basically not stained with any dirt.

Ladies first, the first was naturally Wang Yuanyuan, then Sima Xian, and Long Haochen, as the team leader, washed last. He told everyone not to rest yet, he had something to say to everyone.

Soon, the three finished washing one after another and closed the door. Long Haochen said: “Today’s battle on the city has improved everyone’s tacit understanding. I have two things I want to discuss with you. The first is about obeying orders. After all, we are in the barracks. Obeying orders is the first element of a soldier. Once we violate orders, even if it is to kill more enemies, I am afraid it will cause dissatisfaction with the military. So, I have to ask everyone to restrain themselves a bit.”

Long Haochen was young after all, and he hadn’t been the team leader for long. Although everyone trusted him more and more, they hadn’t formed a real authority yet. Therefore, he was also very careful when speaking, trying to be as tactful as possible.

Sima Xian touched his bald head and said: “I was a bit bloodthirsty just now. I will reflect on it.”

Wang Yuanyuan glanced at him and said: “I don’t care about military orders, but I listen to you, Haochen.”

Everyone saw Long Haochen’s performance on the battlefield. For the sake of the team, he gave up using the abilities of the Punishment Knight, and he had been helping everyone restore their spiritual power through the Spirit Gathering Aura. Everything was focused on taking care of the overall situation, and he was becoming more and more like a team core. The atmosphere within the entire team was very good. Although Wang Yuanyuan had a stubborn personality, she still trusted this young man who was a few years younger than herself.

Chen Ying’er stuck out her tongue and said: “I only have that one ability, so I can’t disobey orders even if I want to!”

The three expressed their positions one after another. As for Cai’er, Han Yu, and Lin Xin, there would naturally be no problem.

Long Haochen smiled and said: “Thank you, everyone. Actually, it’s like this, I have thought about it carefully. Our trip to the Exorcist City for the trial is for three months in total. It is also a process for our new Demon Hunt Squads to gradually get along. And in the end, when we leave, the Exorcist City military should give us an evaluation. No matter how well we perform, once we disobey orders, it is likely to cause the military evaluation to be reduced, which will not be too beneficial for us to compete for the team competition ranking.”
