Chapter 831: Chapter 831

Right off the bat, Du You unleashed a Destruction Flames. With his experience, he only channeled the Destruction Flames for a second, and a large number of fireballs descended from the sky. Doing so would help test the strength of the opposition.

No sooner had the Destruction Flames been cast and the fireballs not yet touched the ground, than Du You’s prepared Dark Spirit Light surged into his body, and in an instant, Du You’s Magic Power was almost fully restored.

In this way, the previous Magic wouldn’t affect Du You’s combat strength at all.

The fireballs in the sky finally fell. It was then that Du You finally saw what those blades were for. The blade launchers swiftly turned their heads, aiming at the sky.

The next moment, countless blades surged upwards with a force very similar to Gang Qi. It was unclear how it was done. Each blade was nearly as powerful as a long-distance Gang Qi blade. Even the sheer impact force and the material made the blades’ inherent attack power even stronger.

A wave of fireballs was almost instantly destroyed, followed by a rain of flames falling to the ground.

The Destruction Evil Dogs appeared, but before the flames hit the ground, there were Tian Gang Martial Artists already waiting at the spots where the flames would land. Meanwhile, the blade launchers were already turning to face some of those locations.

The newly-appeared Destruction Evil Dogs were destroyed by the oncoming attacks before they could wreak any havoc.

Although the Destruction Evil Dogs were of a high tier, being almost at the fourth tier due to their inherent quality, their abilities were just too one-dimensional. Additionally, their strengthened attacks came at the expense of their defense and other capabilities.

When faced with the explosive power of Tian Gang Martial Artists, it was normal that they couldn’t make much of an impact. Certain specially targeted flames were also extinguished in the next moment.

"There are quite a few who came. They have prepared well," said Du You as he observed the situation in the distance.

"If we attack forcefully, we are likely to be overpowered," Lin Yucha stated, looking at the scene before her.

After a moment of thought, Du You said, "Let’s do this: leave most of the Demon Extermination Spirits here. You two go outside and create more Demon Extermination Spirits. Leave this place to me, I’ll drain their energy."

"Then, Master, be careful. Tian Gang Martial Artists may have less Gang Qi, but their recovery speed is very fast."

This was an issue they had already identified during their extensive battles. Tian Gang Martial Artists indeed lacked stamina, but their recovery ability was significantly superior to that of other professions.

The Gang Qi within them seemed to be a transformation of their physical strength through some special technique. The faster their physical strength recuperated, the quicker the Gang Qi would restore—if they consumed high-energy foods, this recovery rate could even be accelerated.

In other words, unless they engaged in relentless combat, the Tian Gang Martial Artists’ combat strength could exceed Du You’s calculations. This profession had too great of an advantage.

Perhaps their biggest weakness was the low tier of the profession itself. Limited by this world, Tian Gang Martial Artists currently didn’t have advanced professions; they only had the Tian Gang Martial Artist profession, with not many skills available. They likely needed additional Warrior skills for support.

Du You shook his head and continued to wait at the location. The two sisters left, but Du You remained.

After his Dark Spirit Light had recovered, Du You unleashed another Destruction Flames in just one second without hesitation. Faced with such defensive power, Du You felt there was little difference between three seconds and one second, and that a longer casting time would not yield better results. Instead of channeling for three seconds and putting himself in danger, he decided it was better to maintain the current approach.

While Du You was recovering with the Dark Spirit Light, he consistently attacked on a large scale with Destruction Flames. Although his attacks didn’t seem effective, his enemy’s blades were steadily being depleted.

Du You realized that these blades were single-use, and once utilized, they couldn’t be used a second time. Thus, how long they could maintain this situation depended on the longevity of their blades.

"No, we can’t keep this up, that person is clearly trying to deplete our weapons."

"Indeed, Your Majesty, give the order, we must push through."

Countless people began to volunteer, no longer wishing to endure the frustration. However, the Emperor of Gu Country could not act impulsively, for he knew that once they sallied forth, surrounded by the numerous Demon Extermination Spirits, they would be no match for them.

The mature Demon Extermination Spirits were too terrifying. Now they could rely on the city walls to hold off these monsters, who were neither skilled in siege warfare nor equipped with siege weapons. But if they ventured out, most human soldiers would be too vulnerable in front of the Demon Extermination Spirits.

"No, the enemy can create those monsters by killing our people. If we charge out, the enemy will only grow in number while we dwindle. And since they have fewer numbers, we stand no chance."

After so many battles, everyone had come to understand the enemy’s various abilities. After using many skills a few times, Du You could no longer conceal them even if he wanted to. It was impossible to be cunning in this situation, so they might as well overwhelm with their sheer might. Under absolute power, any strategy is rendered useless.

"Let me do it. If I fail, Your Majesty, please evacuate quickly."

A black figure flashed out without giving others the chance to speak. This was the only Martial God Zhou Ling of Gu Country. Zhou Ling was not an ordinary Warrior; instead, he primarily cultivated archery.

Seeing the appearance of this extraordinary Gang Qi, Du You’s lips curled into a smile, "The gifts have arrived."

For Du You, such fourth-tier enemies could provide him with magic orbs and advancement materials, naturally viewed as bearing gifts. An enemy of the Archer type might be more useful to the sisters.

From a distance, without getting close to Du You, a pitch-black arrow had already flown towards him. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝕟𝕖𝕥

Without a second thought, Du You instantly cast a Shield Spell, followed by the emergence of Dark Absorption. The arrow struck his Shield Spell, shattering it, and then hit the shield formed by Dark Absorption.

The dark shield vibrated continuously but ultimately managed to block the attack. However, a white arrow followed closely behind the black one, instantly piercing through the Dark Absorption and the figure behind it as well.

"That’s not right, that’s not..." Zhou Ling, who had just smiled, suddenly changed his expression drastically.

Because he realized that the pierced figure behind the shield wasn’t Du You, but a stone. It turned out that as soon as the attack came, Du You had already stealthily moved, utilizing the power of the death gorilla to go underground, leaving only a stone in place. Under the concealment of the pitch-black Dark Absorption, it took a while to realize what it was.
