Chapter 568: Chapter 568
Du You had no choice, it wasn’t his fault he was different from the others. The others, due to their incomplete skills or considerations of safety, hardly ever acted alone and usually formed teams.
Whether it be a large force or a small squad, they were always in groups, resulting in a suppressed drop rate. Their primary method of obtaining Crystal Coins and personal equipment was through completing quests. This is why their earnings were always quite meager and they always found themselves scheming ways to hunt for additional tasks.
Du You, on the other hand, always acted alone. His two followers were included in his count, so as per the rules, the three of them were regarded as one entity. Du You rarely teamed up with others.
Likewise, Du You usually chose to slaughter enemies of the same rank, or even those with higher levels, utilising this method to obtain high drop rates. Only specific people with high skill investments like Du You could consider employing such a method.
Consequently, Du You seldom accepted quests; instead, he would seek out locations teeming with formidable enemies, cutting a swath through them. Now that he was teamed up with these people, Du You could see the issue.
If his earnings were so low, the others were faring even worse. The others, however, did not seem to care about gaining from their kills. Their real objective was the quest itself. One quest was the demon-slaying mission Du You had been tasked with ever since he entered this world, where the kill count had once again begun.
The other mission probably had something to do with the Demon Great Rift.
But speaking of missions, Du You found it strange. Upon reaching this world, he found that he had no main quest.
Normally, no matter where you go, there would always be a main quest. But since he had arrived in this world, he hadn’t encountered any such quests at all. Du You was under the impression that he could leave this world at any given moment.
Possibly, his immense contributions to this world had attracted the World Will’s attention.
Upon reaching this world, Du You had immediately sensed the power of destiny augmenting him. Soon after, he realized that there were no main quests around. A rather significant discovery.
Anyway, he might as well continue the slaughter spree. The reason Du You rejected the tool provided to combat the Demon Gate was because it basically had no use for him. In addition to sealing, a Demon Gate could be shattered with raw force, a method more thorough than sealing.
The demons won’t have an easy time re-opening a Spatial Gate in a destroyed area.
With his current power at Level 19, Du You definitely qualifies as a top-tier entity in this world. The most powerful demons in this world are only at Level 20, a restriction imposed by the world’s power.
Under such restriction, Du You doubts that any Demon Gate can withstand his assaults.
Approaching noon, the party finally arrived at the Demon Great Rift. On the ground, a deep, pitch-black crevice covered the land, demons climbing out non stop.
The sight of the black mass was enough to make one’s hair stand on end. Follow current novels on 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵※𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾※𝙣𝙚𝙩
"This is the Demon Rift, the source of all the demons in the demon slaughter field. As long as we destroy this source, the demons will stop appearing and we can eliminate all the demons here. This is definitely a very meaningful mission. The rewards after completion will surely satisfy everyone." Min Xi announced loudly.
Cheers erupted from the crowd, their spirits buoyed.
"Du You, you really want to act alone? You can see how dense the demons are here."
Du You waved his hand: "I can handle it on my own. It’s more flexible this way."
Du You had no other choice. Being with these people, he had killed so many second-tier demons, yet gained nothing. His earnings were swallowed up by the World Will. He couldn’t continue .
"Humph, how arrogant." Someone sneered.
"If he is willing to go alone, let him be. With their power, even if things go wrong, they can escape. So we can just help them out later." Many people muttered about Du You.
Stressed, Min Xi rubbed his forehead. Managing this team was troublesome enough with just the academy students; adding older, more experienced members just added to the chaos.
If his own power wasn’t suited for solo operations, he would’ve given up managing this team altogether.
"Alright, if you run into danger, be sure to come to us," Min Xi tried to persuade them once more.
There was nothing they could do if Du You decided to ignore them. As others have said, with his group’s power, even if they encountered danger, they could still escape. Their strength was too terrifying.
There had been two level 20 demon leaders at the demon slaughter ground, and yet they didn’t even last two rounds against Du You and his group. Their ease with killing was indeed impressive.
Du You chose a section of the Demon Great Rift with his two companions, sent a fireball ahead, and under the direction of Lin Yushi, the three of them rushed into the depths of the rift. The others didn’t enter from here, they chose other places as the slope here was too steep for a large force to enter.
The large group could only split into at most a dozen smaller teams. They didn’t have the power of Du You.
"Finally got rid of them." Feeling their departure from afar, Du You breathed a sigh of relief. He and the sisters easily stepped over the demons and ventured deeper into the rift.
Just as he reached the deepest part of the rift, Du You noticed a black vortex spinning nonstop. A red power surged at the edge, and a demon suddenly burst out of it, rushing straight towards them.
"So, this is the Demon Gate. It seems this gate isn’t very large and only allows first-tier demons to pass."
Du You was speaking and attacking at the same time. He threw a Dark Flame Arrow Array, countless dark flame arrows fired towards the Spatial Gate. The arrows didn’t penetrate the gate but hit what looked like a solid entity. The power of the dark flames collided fiercely with the power of the gate and kept cancelling each other out.
Finally, with the spatial energy fluctuating and erupting, the Demon Gate completely exploded like a bomb. Quite a few unlucky demons nearby were blasted off, though none of them were killed on the spot.
