Chapter 310: Being Yourself in the Fog (Part 3)

Samimi couldn’t be bothered to deal with her.

“[Knight Exclusive Defense Amplification – Combined Formulation] x2.”

She continued to apply a more balanced, versatile Full Attribute Enhancement to her other two teammates.

“What about me?” Bemore asked.

“[Clear Mind Technique].”

Samimi casually tossed a Support Technique her way, then her tone turned serious:

“Listen up, all of you. They are not human. Eating people is their daily routine. You don’t need to show any mercy.”

“Forget mercy—we must eradicate them completely, leave not a single one.”

She was laying the most basic psychological groundwork.

These young women hadn’t truly witnessed the scenes of Demons ravaging the land yet. Their hatred wasn’t at a high enough level.

Otherwise, such words wouldn’t even need to be said.

“Oh? Interesting abilities.” The lead Lead Maiden Demon’s eyes gleamed. “Once I devour you alive, I’ll be able to learn your techniques.”

“So scary.” Samimi sneered.

The next instant—

Reagarth vanished from her spot.

In the blink of an eye, she had appeared behind the Lead Maiden Demon.

Her hand formed a sword, a slash!

It directly severed one of the other’s arms!

If the demon hadn’t reacted extremely fast and retreated in time—

her head would have been gone.

One second she was laughing, the next her face instantly darkened.

And it wasn’t just her.

The other four Demons instantly scattered like startled birds, fleeing in all directions!

Their formation collapsed on the spot.

Samimi almost let out a satisfied laugh watching it.

This was the power of a Mechanism Boss!

This was the feeling of having a mechanism teammate!

The Hero of the Storm, who had fully mastered Wind Fighting Spirit, under her Amplification—

was absurdly strong.

Reagarth transformed into a raging gale, pursuing at extreme speed.

Before she even arrived—

her sword aura arrived first!

Countless Wind Blades sealed off escape routes.

“What kind of power is this?!” the Youth Demon roared.

Blue Magic flared in its hands, condensing into twin blades as it suddenly stopped and counterattacked.

However—

it couldn’t see anything clearly.

It only felt a gale sweep past.

It wildly slashed with its demonic blades but couldn’t catch any target.

Two seconds later.

It froze.

Because—

its own arms were the first to fly up.

Immediately after—

its body was sliced into several pieces, shattering across the ground.

Instant kill.

However, its death wasn’t without value.

It had successfully bought a moment.

The remaining four Demons took the chance to flee back into the White Mist.

It became the sacrificial pawn.

Reagarth reappeared in her form.

The corpse at her feet rapidly disintegrated, turning into particles of magic power that dissipated, leaving behind only dried, withered scraps of flesh.

She quickly returned to the left side of the team, stabilizing the battle line again.

“My apologies, I let them escape.” Her tone was full of self-blame.

She had instantly killed an enemy and was still apologizing.

“It’s enough.” Samimi smiled. “They’ve already been scared out of their wits. They won’t dare act again for a while.”

“Our mission is to clear the Poisonous Fog. Don’t pursue a defeated foe.”

“Understood.” Reagarth nodded.

“The source of the Poisonous Fog should be deeper inside.” Samimi continued analyzing. “We just need to destroy the source.”

“But those Demons will definitely return to obstruct us.”

“Don’t underestimate them.”

“The most terrifying thing about Demons is—they have intelligence, they coordinate, they use tactics, they’re cunning.”

She gave a solemn reminder.

The Radiant Squad continued advancing.

Searching for the source within the Poisonous Fog.

Along the way, those Demons never showed themselves again.

But everyone could feel it—

they were there, watching from the shadows.

Hatred, killing intent, undisguised.

As if ready to pounce and tear them apart at any moment.

Samimi, however, fell into deep thought.

She couldn’t figure it out.

Why were there so many Demons appearing?

According to the original plot—

Demons were extremely few in number, each one an Elite unit with unique abilities.

Magic Sword Red was the pinnacle among them.

It led a small number of mature Demons and a large number of ordinary Magic Beasts to form the Abyss Vanguard.

To be honest—

this vanguard force as a whole wasn’t that strong.

Far inferior to the later Abyss army.

But now—

the situation had changed.

“Mass Production of Demons.”

This setting clearly deviated from the original plot.

For the Abyss, it was a buff.

For the Human Race—

it was a disaster.

“Did you see that?” Bemore suddenly asked.

“What?” Samimi snapped back to attention.

“The abilities those Demons used just now.” Bemore frowned. “They were Enchanting themselves.”

“And it looked very similar to your Blue Magic Enchantment.”

Samimi nodded:

“Theoretically, humans can also use magic power to strengthen themselves.”

“But the human body is too fragile. That method is equivalent to overloading, burning one’s life force.”

“It’s not feasible for us.”

“But for Demons—it’s completely feasible.”

“They can block pain, and the life force consumed can be replenished by devouring humans or Magic Beasts.”

Bemore was silent for a moment:

“How do you know all this?”

“The Church holds the secrets of the Human Race.” Samimi brushed it off casually.

Bemore didn’t press further.

“If they master this technique…” she said quietly, “ordinary Adventurers won’t be able to stop them at all.”

“Correct.” Samimi nodded. “They can easily pierce through most equipment.”

“We—are their food.”

“They are more brutal than ordinary Magic Beasts.”

“Because they must devour flesh and blood to enhance their magic power.”

This kind of setting—

was very similar to evil cultivators in a xianxia world.

Using the lives of others as nourishment.

Samimi’s tone was icy:

“Things like this, there’s no possibility of coexistence.”

“Ordinary Magic Beasts stop when they’re full.”

“But Demons—are bottomless pits.”

“Their reason for existence is to kill people efficiently.”

“So—they must all be eliminated.”

Finally.

They found their target.

It was a giant Spray Mushroom.

Continuously releasing Poisonous Fog.

“Found you.”

Bemore raised her hand—

A Dragon Bomb blasted out!

BOOM!

The mushroom was instantly blown to pieces.

The Poisonous Fog—

began to rapidly dissipate.
