Although I didn't pay much attention to the sky along the way, all my impressions of the sky were pretty much the same: I had never seen a clear blue sky with white clouds.
They only noticed the city was like this, but they didn't realize it;
As they ventured deeper into the demon realm's borders, the less they could see the blue sky.
In other words, every inch of land starting from the border of the demon race is covered by a huge domain.
A domain large enough to cover the entire demon race!
Chapter 172 Soul-Searching Question
It seemed that every city was shrouded in a domain, and Lan was somewhat worried that these domains might detect the movements of the heroes.
However, this domain did not have any real impact on them along the way, at most making the two heroes of the sun and moon feel uncomfortable.
They might be slightly weakened in combat, but their inherent attributes will not be reduced as a result.
In other words, they only become stronger under specific circumstances, but otherwise they remain at their current strength level.
Along the way, the Sky Heroes team diligently honed their skills for survival among the demons.
In each city they visit, different members will go to buy maps and various goods. They will also randomly strike up conversations with the demons around them, regardless of time or place. They are a pure social bull team.
All of this was simply to hone their communication skills with the demons; they would even ask the demons what words they didn't understand meant. (Road)
Judging solely from their magical abilities, they were merely a small team of level five demons, which is quite common in cities teeming with level five demons.
"Blue, where are we going next? Where do you think we can find the black market?" asked Shino, the Star Warrior.
The other two also looked at Lan, waiting for her answer.
The Sky Hero is their captain, the core of their team, and a reliable figure trusted by the other three.
The "captains" of the other squads can hardly be considered the backbone of the organization; they seem more like representatives chosen simply because a leader was needed.
Lan, however, won over the other three with her intelligence, making them respect her and regard her as the leader of the team.
She already had a feasible plan in mind for this search for the "black market," but she also wanted to train the other team members, so she decided to let them think about it more first.
"Do you still remember how Mr. Sword Hero taught us?" Lan asked with a smile.
"Hmm... Shall we torture the lord here first?" Shino said.
"The lord here is probably a level seven demon, and we can't just torture him like that." The Moon Warrior Apollo glanced at the lord's mansion on the mountaintop in the city.
The entire city is built on a mountain, with dense buildings stretching down from the top, while the lord's residence is located at the summit.
For a long time, most heroes believed that a level 70 hero was equivalent to a level 7 demon.
However, after entering the demon realm, the Sky Heroes team discovered that as they ventured deeper into the demon realm, the combined attributes of most level six demons had caught up with those of the heroes.
In other words, the attributes of a level 6 demon should be equivalent to those of a level 90+ hero.
This was a fact that no humans had discovered before encountering a large number of demons.
This is also very important intelligence.
The demons in the demon territory are completely different from the goblins outside and the level seven or eight demons in the vast forests.
In terms of attributes, the attributes of the demons within the demon territory are more reasonable, unlike goblins which are extremely high in attack and low in defense.
即便是高9攻低防4,属性也不会8全分配2到力4量,而是变得3高攻高敏,用3极快0的速度来弥5补韧性的不足。
In the demon city that the system has classified as Grade C, Level 5 and Level 6 demons can be seen everywhere.
Through conversations with the demons, it was learned that the city's lord was actually only a level seven demon.
However, the recommended level for the raid is 100.
Through discussion and summarizing the patterns, the four members of the Sky Squad came to a conclusion.
They need not doubt the system's judgment; this is the gods telling them that the demons within the demon territory are not on the same level of difficulty as the demons outside.
Rather, it's more accurate to say that they're only realizing this now, which is quite slow.
Therefore, a level 7 demon within the demon territory would require a level 100 hero squad to jointly subdue it.
Fortunately, it's not too late to find out now.
They didn't know if they were the first to realize the problem, but they did know that the heroes were still in the stage of exploring the demon race.
Let alone hunting demons, all the level 100 heroes who have entered the demon realm are still in the process of learning the language, gathering intelligence, and familiarizing themselves with the area; they haven't even started looking for hunting targets yet.
It's not too late to bring the information back now and have the Hero Alliance inform all the heroes.
However, a new question has arisen.
Now that hunting demons outside has reached the level cap, and the experience points for level 7 demons have been reduced, will hunting level 7 demons inside also be reduced?
A level 7 demon is already comparable to a level 100 hero, so how can a level 100 hero hunt down and search for level 10 demons?
With that special ability that only comes once a month, how long would it take to kill them all?
Numerous questions arose in the minds of the four members of the team, and they couldn't wait to reunite with the other teams and share their speculations.
However, the most urgent task... is to find [Formless].
We need to find the black market first.
"Shall we check each of the tavern's kitchens one by one?" Sino asked a rather illogical question.
Sele, the Hero of the Sun: "Are you stupid?"
……
Back in Fire Demon City, the Saintess Squad and the Fighting Hero Squad were investigating the auction house.
Meanwhile, Lycorina, Milco, and Franti were also busy at the base.
They not only obtained information about the auction house, but also information about the black market from the "Black Guy".
The other party also gave us two boxes of gold coins, so even if we didn't find the [Lord of No Form], we could still find something on the black market.
However... before even reaching the black market, Lycorina was drawn to the various other goods on the street.
Franti was in a similar situation; she had been too tense along the way and hadn't even had a proper look at the demon streets.
What started as a mission turned into a shopping trip between sisters.
Milu isn't the type of person who enjoys shopping.
In addition, the demons in the area were numerous and smelly, so she preferred to stay at home and sleep rather than wander around.
She also tried to hint at something;
[Hero of the Thorns: Have we gotten a little too relaxed...?]
Then Licorina turned the tables on her;
"Milu, aren't you being a little too nervous? We're on an 'impossible mission'."
“Ah…” Milu was speechless.
That's true, there's no need to be so tense.
Even if they reached the black market, even if the [Lord of No Form] appeared within their sight, would they really recognize him?
Even An Yi knows that you shouldn't force things that can't be forced, and you should relax when you should relax. Being too tense is just silly.
"Your Highness..."
On the way, Franti suddenly seemed hesitant to speak.
"What's wrong?" Lycorina asked.
"Actually, I had some questions along the way, but I didn't know whether I should ask you."
"Ask away! If I know, I'll definitely tell you!"
"Ok.
I want to ask about the Hero Alliance.
As if she had made up her mind, Franti nodded firmly and then asked;
"The predecessor of the Hero League was the Aldrich Cult, right?"
What were the believers doing before the hero appeared?
As far as she knew, this organization that was supposed to protect humanity might not have done a good job of protecting humanity before.
Otherwise, why would so many people who lost their families hate the demon race and become heroes?
Chapter 173 One Step Away
"Um……"
Lycorina frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and did not give an answer immediately.
Franti felt a chill run down her spine, thinking that this supreme saintess must also be thinking about how to avoid this topic.
She doesn't deny the contributions made by the Hero Alliance, but she doesn't seem to have any impression of the Aldrich Cult before the appearance of the "Messenger of the Gods".
Regardless of whether it left a good or bad impression, it was almost impossible to sense the existence of this religion that supposedly "protects humanity."
"To be honest... I don't know what the believers are doing in 3 either." Lycorina thought for a long time, scratched her head and smiled.
Franti was taken aback: "Aren't you the saint of the Aldrich Church?"
“Yes, but I’ve been in contact with the High God all along before I became a hero, and I’ve never even met many of his followers,” Lycorina confessed.
Franti: "???"
Aren't you a saint of the Aldrich Church?! The highest-ranking leader in the Aldrich Church, on par with the Pope!
As if hearing Franti's thoughts, Lycorina chuckled softly;
"I'm not that capable of both communicating with the Supreme God and managing the entire Heavenly God Cult."
It's the same now; I can't possibly infiltrate the demon realm and manage the Hero Alliance at the same time.
"I've been thinking about your question, and I think..."
Without the help of God, believers are unable to properly protect everyone.
Perhaps they are also trying to protect everyone, but the more demons they come into contact with, the more they feel the powerlessness of ordinary people.
The Celestial God Cult lacked an army capable of fighting the demons, and its numbers were few. Even with their efforts, there was little they could accomplish.
