Chapter 1354: Chapter 913 I am the MT

Watching the Blood-Stained Military God collapse in front of Duanmu Huai in the blink of an eye left the adventurers gaping, but cheers quickly erupted. Soon after, the Dwarf Warriors strode over, one of them reaching out to pat Duanmu Huai’s calf–since they couldn’t reach his shoulder.

“Well done! Steel Warrior! Quickly, make your way to the Demon King Palace now, we’ll stay here and draw their attention!”

There was no time to celebrate the destruction of one of the Seven Honored – Destruction; the adventurers nodded in agreement, aware that this was not the end, but the beginning. The Demon Clan could sense each other’s Magic Power, and with the Blood-Stained Military God dead, the others would definitely be aware of it already. With their speed, they would surely be on their way here by now!

Thus, they planned to use themselves as bait to attract the attention of these demons, allowing Duanmu Huai to press on and strike into the Demon King Palace!

However…

“No, leave this to me. You go first.”

Duanmu Huai shook his head, interrupting the Dwarf Warrior’s suggestion.

“I’ll take on this group of demons. I will draw the attention of the main troops while you sneak into the Demon King Palace.”

“But…”

“There’s no time to hesitate. For me, no matter how many Demon Clan come, they are just a side dish, but for you, I’m afraid you might end up dying here. If we have to die, at least let it be in the presence of the Demon King, not wasted on some lowly soldiers!”

Upon hearing this, the Dwarf Warriors fell silent, understanding Duanmu Huai’s point. Indeed, though the adventurers were quite strong, they would likely only find death facing a large number of demons. But this Steel Warrior was different; not only was he powerful in combat, but his defense was also top-notch.

It meant that if they stayed to distract the demons, they would most likely all be killed after eliminating a large number, whereas if Duanmu Huai did it, he would likely attract a large number of demons, leaving the Demon King Palace undefended and easier for them to infiltrate and strike at the Demon King.

“Are you sure it’s okay? Even though the Demon King hasn’t recalled his army, there are still thousands of demons and tens of thousands of Demon Beast Soldiers guarding the palace year-round. With just you alone… Can you really keep their attention?”

“Of course.”

Facing the Dwarf Warrior’s question, Duanmu Huai coldly smiled, clenching the War Hammer and swinging it forward.

“Don’t worry, if you can’t defeat the Demon King, I’ll avenge you in the end.”

“Alright then, Steel Warrior.”

With Duanmu Huai’s response, the Dwarf Warrior had nothing more to say, he nodded forcefully.

“We’ll leave it in your hands. Let’s go!”

Following the Dwarf Warrior’s command, the adventurers scattered in all directions, swiftly vanishing into the woods. Meanwhile, Duanmu Huai raised his head, looking towards the sky. From afar, dense specks appeared like dark clouds – of course, they were not clouds, but rather the Demon Beast Army with weapon in hand and birdlike heads!

“How dare these Alien Hybrids be so presumptuous before me!”

With a swing of his War Hammer, Duanmu Huai leapt into the air, soaring upwards.

“In the name of the Tribunal, die!”

“Gaah———-!!”

As Duanmu Huai charged at them, the Demon Beasts opened their mouths, letting out ear-piercing screeches, while Duanmu Huai gripped the War Hammer, then swung it hard forward!

At this moment, Duanmu Huai was hundreds of meters away from the group of demons. To an observer, it looked as if he had simply lifted his War Hammer and swung a line in front of him. However, as the War Hammer whistled by, the demons hundreds of meters away from him suddenly burst, their bodies exploding as if struck by an invisible Giant Hammer, disintegrating and accompanied by wails of agony, turning into a heap of flesh.

In just one strike, thousands of Demon Beast Soldiers were completely annihilated.

“Huh… This Magic is really invigorating, just missing this.”

Gazing at the shadow of the Demon Beast Army falling from the sky, Duanmu Huai narrowed his eyes, unveiling a trace of icy brilliance.

“Zhenjiling, look, this world was truly worth the visit.”

“Congratulations, big brother, you’ve gained something new once again.”

“That’s right, this thing is what I wanted the most.”

Duanmu Huai nodded, then continued to accelerate, flying forward. Soon, he had crossed over the Black Forest and arrived in front of the Royal City. There, darkly clustered, thousands upon thousands of Demon Beast Soldiers were gathering, clearly, everything Duanmu Huai had done had completely drawn the attention of the Demon King’s Army.

And for Duanmu Huai, this was the most crucial.

“Haaaah!!”

In the next moment, Duanmu Huai descended from the sky with a roar, like a meteorite crashing directly into the center of the square. He stood up, unfazed by the mangled corpses of Demon Beasts under his feet, revealing a ferocious grin and looking around at the monsters surrounding him.

“Die–Hybrids!”

Duanmu Huai raised his War Hammer high, then smashed it towards the ground with all his might.

“Boom——!”

As Duanmu Huai’s War Hammer hit the ground, all demons within hundreds of meters around him, as if struck by an invisible Giant Hammer, collapsed explosively, their bodies turned unrecognizable, skin and muscle bones intermingled, and filthy black blood, like the grape juice that oozes out when grapes are trampled, flowed and spread over the snow-covered square, bringing swathes of jarring blackness.
