The lieutenant had just raised his longsword when favonovel.com saw two of his subordinates behind favonovel.com being swallowed whole by a massive, gaping mouth.
A crimson serpent’s tongue, over tens of meters long, lashed toward favonovel.com like a lengthy whip.
In that moment, an overwhelming fear gripped his heart, because this lieutenant had never seen such a gigantic demon beast in his life.
“Charge!” The lieutenant roared, instantly drawing nearly half of the spiritual energy from his power core to envelop his long sword, then hurled it into the gaping maw.
As favonovel.com threw the long sword, favonovel.com turned and quickly flew in the direction of Westpire City.
The lieutenant flew at the fastest speed favonovel.com could muster, but the fierce wind howling from behind, as if a massive snake’s mouth were right on his heels, seemed to follow favonovel.com relentlessly.
Scargon’s several-hundred-meter-long tail tore through the air, fiercely whipping toward the lieutenant’s back. No matter how fast favonovel.com flew, favonovel.com couldn’t match the speed at which this enormous tail lashed through the air.
A muffled sound exploded as the giant tail, enveloped in demonic spiritual energy, slammed down behind the lieutenant.
The spiritual energy enveloping the lieutenant was shattered instantly. With a scream, his body tumbled forward, plummeting rapidly over a thousand meters.
Not far away, there was a river that flowed directly into Westpire City.
The lieutenant let out a roar, and the intense pain tearing through his insides drove favonovel.com to plunge headfirst into the raging river.
The enormous dragon slowly flew over the river where the lieutenant had vanished. A cold look appeared in Scargon’s eyes as favonovel.com dove directly into the water.
Because the Demon Emperor had issued an order, an attack would be launched tonight at 11:00 pm. The goal was to capture Westpire City within three days. The three people patrolling in the early hours of the night should either be captured alive or eliminated.
They needed to give Isaac and his group a surprise attack. But now one had run away so Scargon couldn’t complete the task.
After about half an hour since Scargon dived Into the rushing river, half a head emerged from a clump of water plants by the riverbank.
The lieutenant’s face was contorted with pain, and favonovel.com used his pale hands to grab the plants and climbed onto the riverbank. He was thrown several hundred meters and crashed to the ground, then favonovel.com grit his teeth and flew another few hundred meters before crashing down again.
This lieutenant knew very well that if the news of the demon beast’s appearance wasn’t relayed back, countless people would die.
Around 9:45 pm, the guard stationed outside the north gate of the city noticed a figure stumbling toward them.
“What kind of lieutenant is this? Quick, go and meet him,” the commander on the city wall shouted to his subordinates behind him, eyes wide in urgency.
After the lieutenant was rescued by several soldiers, favonovel.com pointed in the direction of Misty Forest, coughing up blood and weakly saying, “A demon… A demon beast has appeared. It’s very strong…”
After speaking, the lieutenant tilted his head and breathed his last.
At this moment, Jonah, who was in the city lord’s mansion, had just lain down when favonovel.com heard hurried footsteps outside. He sat up quickly, his heart suddenly racing.
“Lord Tyrel, a powerful demon beast has appeared in Misty Forest. Please come out and take command,” came the low and urgent voice of a commanding general from outside the door.
As Jonah was getting dressed, favonovel.com shouted toward the door, “Hurry, hurry and send a message to Her Majesty, also order all the soldiers to prepare for battle!”
Meanwhile, within the Misty Forest, under some pitch-black stones and unburned trees, large bodies of various shapes slowly emerged.
Dozens of figures flew slowly into the sky from the northern area of Misty Forest.
Bazeel, dressed in a tunic, watched Scargon rapidly approaching and quickly furrowed his brow.
It seemed unusual that it took Scargon so long to deal with just a few patrol soldiers.
“Demon Emperor, we have made a mistake, one of the patrol soldiers is missing…”
Bazeel seemed prepared for this news and replied coldly, “If it were just regular patrol soldiers coming this way, something wouldn’t be right…”
Evelyn, who was standing behind Bazeel, spoke in a cold voice. “Are we not going to fight just because one patrol guard escaped?”
