After Being Sold Out By The Empire, I Decide To Assist The Demon King-Chapter 316 - 60 Owner Heidlin Fully Responsible

"Glub... glub..."

"Glub... glub... glub..."

"..."

In the viscous darkness, countless bubbles surged... countless enormous eyes, scarlet and pale yellow, glared, and the emitted light illuminated the entities to which these eyes belonged.

Those were eyeballs on the tentacles...

Countless enormous tentacles, like the tentacles of an octopus, but where there should have been suction cups, were replaced with countless eyeballs, continuously rotating, sending chills down one’s spine.

This was a monster that could induce thalassophobia, megalophobia, and nyctophobia at first glance. *What was most terrifying was that the deeper body hiding beneath these tentacles was the thing that inevitably provoked fear and imagination.*

And above this sea were countless increasingly frenzied monsters. These Evil God’s Followers, whose appearances were like tentacles and flesh, fish coiled together, continuously attacked the pitch-black ground.

As long as they broke through the coastline, they could reach the land... as long as they contaminated some of the land, the power belonging to the Evil God’s Followers would penetrate into the Main Plane.

"It’s time for a shift change... you should rest, Li."

To the colleague in a black coat who said this, the one called "Li" also dressed the same... he nodded, slowly handing over the frontline to his companion.

The other person was also one of the extraordinary...

In the hunting team, the responsibility of the extraordinary members was to eliminate the "high-risk" targets among the Evil God’s Followers, to minimize losses... they had to be extremely focused on locating high-risk targets.

During their downtime, they could try to kill as many of the Evil God’s Followers as possible.

It was exhausting.

"Alright."

The one called Li nodded, a nonchalant smile on his face, resting in the camp... though he appeared relaxed, his face was already covered in purple veins.

It was as if his capillaries were filled with purple blood.

"Captain Li... are you really alright?"

To his resting colleague’s words, Li shook his head, wiping his throwing knives but coughing lightly, spitting out purple blood onto the ground.

*The poison administered by Wenresa back then had completely invaded his body... this was the result of not resisting, but the effect was remarkable. The number of Evil God’s Followers he killed was dozens, even hundreds of times higher than before.*

*It was worth it.*

"I am extraordinary, so I won’t die that easily... though I might not be able to heal in the future," Li said with a nonchalant smile. He said, "It’s really interesting, I feel like I should thank Wenresa... the situation has gotten worse lately." freeweɓnovel-cøm

To Captain Li, who said this.

The regular hunting team member, with throwing knives glowing purple and a completely bandaged left hand, said, "Actually, the losses haven’t been greater than usual, and the manpower losses are manageable... it’s just that our front line has retreated."

Indeed, in the long term, as long as there were no massive losses that made it impossible to maintain effective forces, it was good news for prolonged warfare... but it was different for the Main Plane.

Absolutely, a portion of the strength had leaked into the Main Plane.

"Rest assured, it will be resolved soon... the numbers of the Evil God’s Followers are not limitless," Li said. Rest was generally unnecessary for those extraordinary, but he truly needed to sleep for a while. He said, "As long as no fresh flesh is replenished, one day we will kill all the Evil God’s Followers."

With that, everything could be liberated.

*Thinking this, Li drifted into slumber.*

————— Separator —————

Li groggily opened his eyes only to find no one in the camp... he stood up in confusion, immediately going on alert, drawing his long knife and throwing knives.

"Rein Reiji?"

"Captain Richard?"

Calling out his companions’ names, Li pushed open the camp gate only to see a huge Evil God’s Follower. His pupils contracted, but he immediately recognized the purple throwing knife and instantly hurled it at the tentacle.

With the spreading purple stain, the follower’s body began to decompose and rot... but Li still recognized the watch on the follower’s body - it belonged to Richard.

"Captain?!"

Li asked in disbelief... and the still not completely dead Evil God’s Follower opened and closed its turtle-like mouth, speaking in muddled words, "Feast... has..."

"..."

For the first time hearing an Evil God’s Follower speak, Li was visibly shocked... but as an extraordinary, his strong confidence calmed him down. He quickly analyzed the situation, asking, "What?"

"The time to feast..."

The answer indeed came, but it was from a nearby tent... something sticky seemed to be speaking words that could drag a person into darkness.

"The time to feast has come!!!"

"The time to feast has come! The time to feast has come!"

Subsequently, the shouting echoed from every tent used for resting... Li knew what this signified all too well, he screamed with all his might, "No!!!!"

————— Separator —————

"No!!"

Li shouted abruptly, sitting up suddenly, startling the nearby hunting team member. The other said, "Captain Li, what happened? Did you remember something?"

"..."

"Huff... huff... huff..."

"A dream... was it just a dream?"

In response, Li panted, still terrified, muttering to himself as he gritted his teeth... as one of the four extraordinary within the organization, the hunting team truly had it rough.

*No, actually, this was the same for all the extraordinary who were working hard to protect the Main Plane... only those who didn’t care about anything could live easily each day.*

"It’s nothing, just a nightmare," Li said, looking at the companion who had woken him. He stretched his neck, sitting up and preparing for immediate combat readiness, asking, "Why did you wake me? Has something happened?"

*Otherwise, one wouldn’t wake someone during their rest time.*

"Yes, something strange happened..."

The other said, showing a puzzled expression, "Shortly after you fell asleep, some newly landed Evil God’s Followers uttered words that sounded like the Universal Language... they might be considered speaking."

Li’s expression instantly hardened at these words. He almost immediately and urgently asked, recalling his dream, "What did they say? Could it be..."

"..."

"The time to feast has come?"

"It seemed like... ’The time to feast has arrived.’"

"..."

"Huh?"
