Chapter 360: Chapter 179: Level 8 Demon Gale Ape_1

The demon hunting squad sent for help via the seed spirit crystal. Within a ten-kilometer range, all seed spirit crystals of the demon hunters would resonate. At the same time, the nearest branch spirit crystal would relay this distress signal to the Demon Hunters Headquarters as soon as possible. The closest demon hunters and the Temple’s elites would then respond immediately to provide aid.

However, every demon hunting team could only use the seed spirit crystal for help once. After being used, it would come at a high cost to regain it from the branch spirit crystal of the local branch. This cost came in the form of a thousand merits.

In consideration of their current status as reserve demon hunters, not yet full-fledged hunters, they would definitely not call for help unless faced with a life-and-death crisis. For instance, when Long Dangdang and the others faced two Level 9 luminous griffins that day, they gritted their teeth and did not use it. The primary reason was that Long Dangdang had Little Eight as a trump card to deter the luminous griffins, and the griffins themselves were generally friendly towards humans.

Long Dangdang and his partners sprinted at top speed. According to the map on the seed spirit crystal, they were only about three kilometers away from the incident. For these professionists who averaged the 5th or 6th Rank, it would only take a few minutes to reach the scene.

After just a moment, Long Dangdang could already sense the violent fluctuations of elements coming from the front. He could faintly hear the sounds of desperate cries as well.

Under the bright moonlight, Ming Xi conveyed, "We’re here. It’s just up ahead. A demon hunting team is being attacked by a magical beast."

Under the bright moonlight, Long Dangdang asked, "How many magical beasts are there? What kind of magical beast are they, and how strong are they?"

Under the bright moonlight, Ming Xi replied, "I can’t tell. Otherwise, I would have spelled it out."

Upon hearing this, Long Dangdang couldn’t help but feel a chill in his heart. As a scout, Ming Xi didn’t immediately provide information about the attackers, only saying that they were magical beasts. He initially thought it was a mistake, so he asked again. But Ming Xi’s response was that she couldn’t see. Given her expertise in speed, her eyesight definitely wouldn’t be poor. The fact that even she couldn’t discern the enemy’s condition indicated that the enemy was more fearsome than imagined.

Everyone quickly converged towards Ming Xi’s area, simultaneously brandishing their respective weapons.

With the Inaugural Silver Waves Magic staff safely in his grasp, Long Dangdang had been gradually mastering his surging outer spiritual power after two days of adjustment. The considerable elevation in his outer spiritual power was starting to present its benefits. At the very least, even without using his inner spiritual power, his current strength and speed were quite impressive. Meanwhile, the side-effects of powerful skills like Explosive Burst and Sacrifice were decreasing, yet their potency was increasing. The previous day, when he utilized the sacrifice skill, he could feel that while the power didn’t increase significantly, he could maintain it for a longer duration. He could even use it to burst forth stronger power in a short time, but that would also lead to stronger side-effects.

As they moved through a dense forest, everyone was immediately halted by a sharp, confrontational aura that approached them.

The furious wind swirled around them, the gusts screeching in the air like razor-sharp blades.

The first thing they saw was the demon hunting squad that had called for help. At the present moment, the squad was desperately maintaining their defensive formation.

A fully staffed demon hunting squad normally consisted of six people. At this moment, two of them had already fallen — an assassin and a summoner judging by their attire. Of the remaining four, the knight and warrior were on the front lines, while the mage and priest ceaselessly cast defensive spells, supportive magic, and healing magic on them. Their bodies shone like chameleons, constantly flashing different colors of light.

The surrounding vegetation looked as if it had been ravaged by a violent storm, with a great deal of damage and fallen plants. A clear space about forty meters in diameter had been created, standing out starkly in the dense forest.

They could hardly make out the figure attacking the demon hunting squad. All they could barely see was a green figure, darting around the battlefield like a storm, repeatedly charging at the defense formation of the demon hunting squad, which was now on the brink of collapse.

Long Dangdang turned to look at Ling Menglu, and without exchanging a single word, Ling Menglu explained, "It’s wind attribute, very powerful. But it’s certainly not as strong as the luminous griffin. It should be around Peak Level 7 or a Level 8 magical beast."

As Ling Menglu possessed the highest spiritual power and thus the most discerning perception, Long Dangdang looked to her for her understanding of the situation.

Without hesitating, as time was critical, Long Dangdang quickly ordered. "Yue Li, control the area with ice specialty magic. Prepare to fight. Tao Linlin, use the Demon Suppression Tree for protection, create a refuge, protect mages. Ming Xi, don’t attack. Once the magical beast becomes slow, Kongkong, begin devouring. Sister Wang, we’ll handle the front."

With these succinct yet comprehensive orders, he completed the arrangements. During combat, he would directly call his comrades by their names, saving them valuable time.

Holding her magic staff, Yue Li’s melodious spell chanting echoed in the air. The surrounding air temperature dropped suddenly. The Simultaneous Solar-Lunar Radiation Spirit Furnace emerged in front of her. With the aid of the spirit furnace, the speed of her magic completion significantly increased.

Long Dangdang signaled Ling Menglu, and a golden light flashed in her chest as the Divine Hammer Spirit Furnace materialized.

Just then, a low groan echoed from the battlefield. The knight who had been defending the outermost of the attacked demon hunting squad had his chest armor violently ripped apart, revealing a deep wound. As his aura suddenly depleted, the defense was at once compromised.
