Chapter 1856: Chapter 1856

The reaction of the Abyss was quite swift, but it was merely the response from the Abyss, as those powerful demons weren’t as quick to react.

"In general circumstances, with an invasion of this scale, certainly high-level demons would appear, and usually within several days. But now, it’s already been half a month and they haven’t shown up."

Lin Yucha looked at the intelligence in her hand and said somewhat speechlessly, these demons were indeed cunning.

"Let’s observe a bit more, just to be on the safe side." Du You shook his head.

These days, although they were absorbing the origin to enhance themselves, the progress wasn’t fast, as most of their energy needed to be focused outside. Du You didn’t want the frontline to run into trouble because of their actions.

The two sisters exchanged a glance but didn’t say much, considering their current strength, they practically need not fear anything anymore. It could be said that unless they encounter some immensely powerful ancient monsters, nothing could be a match for them.

Even when facing a late-tier nine existence, they still had opportunities to escape.

Day by day passed by since the beginning of the demon attacks until now, and the assault intensity of the lower-level demons never lessened. However, it took a whole month before a seventh-tier demon finally appeared.

By this time, even those guys on the frontline noticed something was wrong.

"Let’s mobilize and clear out some demons; we shouldn’t stay here all the time. I suspect those powerful demons won’t appear this time, only these ones are here. We can’t allow their lower-tier forces and professionals to suffer too much loss."

They did want to train the professionals, but not just send them to their deaths in vain. The considerations of upper-level and lower-level thinking are completely different, as the frontline had the task of nurturing professionals initially.

"I agree too; these demons also know it’s not easy to deal with the situation here, so they don’t come. Although the Abyss has strong control over demons, it still can’t fully dictate their actions."

The Abyss isn’t entirely the same as other worlds, demons have entities similar to divine spirits, but they aren’t completely integrated into the Abyss. Moreover, no matter how chaotic the demons are, after reaching the seventh tier, their intelligence greatly increases.

Even Earth doesn’t have much control over those above the seventh tier; the Abyss is pretty much the same. Demons above the seventh tier can be commanded by the Abyss, can be guided, but forcibly controlling them is impossible. These higher-level demons have their own methods to evade orders from the Abyss.

For example, finding other tasks beneficial to the Abyss and then creating a mission for themselves does the trick.

This is why those high-level demons haven’t appeared for such a long time. After all, two mid-tier nine demons were lost here; they don’t believe they can handle such a powerful existence here.

This place is the territory of the professionals, and in some sense, those professionals are even more dangerous than demons. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩

Ninth-tier demons directly disregard orders from the Abyss and watch from behind. At this level, demons can’t be commanded by the Abyss. The reason those demons came last time was solely to gain benefits.

And the eighth-tier ones can generally ignore some situations. Those farther away don’t matter, and those nearby can find a reason for themselves. The chaotic world consciousness wouldn’t consider why they’re doing this.

Only seventh-tier demons would be somewhat influenced. However, they also assign tasks to themselves and remove themselves from influence. Only those that can’t avoid it or are entirely driven by slaughter, lacking rationality even at the seventh tier, will be affected, but such demons are not numerous.

Since there weren’t such entities nearby, these guys have only appeared after such a long time.

But their numbers were too few, and with not-so-sharp minds, these demons were destined for trouble. As soon as alarming issues were recognized, those hidden seventh-tier on the front lines were the first to act.

There was even an eighth-tier appearing on the battlefield, a strong presence prepared to prevent unexpected occurrences.

Regardless of frontal combat or stealth assaults, or teaming up to deal with a demon, when prepared, it was too easy to clear out the demons.

Some people also cleaned out several regions with more ordinary demons, greatly easing the various pressures at the front line. Whether professionals or soldiers, even the natives here, all breathed a sigh of relief.

With these powerful beings participating, the momentum of demon attacks was instantly suppressed. Of course, a large part of it was still retained, as it was a training experience for the professionals.

Utilizing these demons, professionals can safely enhance themselves, obtaining various resources they need.

It is believed that after this battle, the strength of the professionals tasked here will greatly improve. Just the prior losses caused the front line commanders some headaches, which are difficult to account for.

After all, each professional is invaluable, especially to many families where one professional could be the backbone of their home. This time, who knows how many originally decent families have been reduced to ruin.

Meanwhile, Du You also observed the front line situation and breathed a sigh of relief upon discovering this situation.

"Indeed, there’s no real threat. These demons are also cunning; they aren’t easily controlled by the Abyss."

"Next, let’s train diligently and strive to further enhance our strength," Du You pondered and then spoke. Finally, everyone could fully commit to improving themselves.

As for if a ninth-tier demon appeared, the Photon Elf guarding outside would immediately alert Du You.

At that moment, he could just go out and address the problem. Although Du You knew there was a late-tier nine powerful entity in the Abyss, that guy seemed always occupied with something, so wouldn’t show up here.

The right choice now was to seize the time to enhance oneself; only with greater strength would it be safer. Even if plans needed to be made in the future, powerful strength would be a guarantee.

The folks at the frontline didn’t know Du You had been keeping watch here, but as matters developed to this point, they relaxed somewhat. However, the commander remained worried, concerned about whether Du You would undertake additional actions.

"After this episode, this place might no longer be a significant frontline, right?"

"What do you mean?" The commander was somewhat surprised.

"After this incident, the surrounding Demon Worlds here have been destroyed, so even if this place remains on the border, it can now expand, and we might be relocated."
