It wasn't so much that he suffered a lot of damage, but rather that facing attacks of various attributes, coupled with the long journey, he inevitably ended up looking a bit disheveled and with messy hair.
They were originally dressed in inconspicuous linen clothes, but now everyone is wearing the fourth-grade equipment issued by System 3. 2#%
The linen clothes were completely damaged.
So they each bought a few more sets of spare clothes on the street and quickly returned to their lodgings to rest.
By the end of the day, the food they had brought with them was all gone, and they had also used up a lot of life potions and mana potions.
However, what they gained in return was a huge reward!
All four have reached the level cap.
All four members of the Saintess Squad have reached level 170!
After hunting down demons, heroes immediately gain attribute boosts, allowing them to hunt at an ever-increasing speed.
The improvement of their respective attributes makes hunting demons of the same level increasingly easier.
When they achieved the first kill to break through level 170, the leader of the level 8 demons was killed almost as soon as they met.
At this moment, Lycorina and Miluko went to take a shower first, while Layton sat in the room, staring blankly at his attributes for a long time.
This is only the third day since we arrived in [Mad Tiger City].
What grade were they in when they first arrived?
Level 110?
That works out to an average of 20 levels per day!
According to this calculation, if we exclude travel time, they wouldn't even need a week to reach level 300?!
Reaching level 400, 500, or even 1000 would be no problem at all.
Are you very tired?
Beside her, Annie looked at the stunned Layton and asked in a low voice.
"Ah, no. SOUSUo:'！§ˉ⌒！〃±◎≌" Layton snapped out of his daze. "I just think we're leveling up so fast!"
In just three days, we've all reached level 170.
"It's alright," An Yi replied casually.
The higher the level of the demon race you can defeat, the faster you will level up.
In the future he knew, it wouldn't take long for other max-level heroes to train a new max-level hero through the first kill.
There are only 10,000 brave warriors.
The demon race cannot be defeated by just 10,000 people.
Above viscounts are earls, above earls are marquises, and above marquises are grand dukes of the demon race, and various king-level demons.
A max-level hero is meant to fight against demons whose strength is equivalent to a max-level hero.
And how many of these demons are there?
There are definitely more than 10,000 brave warriors.
"Anyi! Blow-dry your hair!!"
Lycorina's voice interrupted An'i's thoughts.
An Yi agreed and headed towards the locker room.
He quickly dried the two women's hair.
Annie and Layton washed themselves and changed into new clothes. The four of them then held a brief meeting on the large bed that could easily accommodate seven or eight people.
"Our campaign in Mad Tiger City has come to an end. Next, we will go to the next city to fight against the level nine demons."
Based on our experience of hunting down level eight demons these past few days, it seems that higher-level demons will not interfere with our hunting of lower-level demons at all.
"Otherwise, these level eight demons could easily hire higher-level level nine or ten demons to protect them," An Yi analyzed.
Demons have always bullied the weak; they have no concept of protecting the weak. :△∠☆∮〃∴
Above are organizations of level nine demons, and at the very bottom of these level nine demon organizations are level eight demons.
The level eight demons, who reign supreme in resource-scarce areas, are merely basic units in resource-rich urban areas.
The level nine demons don't even care about the resources of these basic constituent units, so naturally they won't offer any help.
This situation, where the younger brother is attacked and the older brother is attacked, only occurs when the lord is killed.
For example, after the baron was killed, the viscount would send some demons to check what was going on.
The Baron's Domain is considered the area with the least magic power among the demon cities, and even stronger demons are unwilling to stay in such a place.
Therefore, the strongest units are basically only level seven demons.
The baron is the viscount's subordinate and is specifically responsible for managing these places where magic is scarce.
Moreover, the Baron is also a noble of the demon race. If a higher-ranking demon noble discovers that his subordinate has been killed, he will naturally investigate.
However, the various shady organizations among the demon race do not receive this treatment.
Even in the same city, the stronger demons wouldn't stand up for them.
If there are better resources, it will definitely be the stronger demons who seize them. How could these low-level demons possibly get a chance?
If these level eight demons are responsible for helping manage the resources of the level nine demons, then they naturally wouldn't set up their own faction.
Those who set up their own businesses have no protective umbrella.
Those who do not establish their own independent operations will not be targeted by the Saintess Squad.
If both conditions are combined, you won't provoke a stronger demon.
"So we're leaving tomorrow?" Lycorina asked.
“Okay.” An Yi nodded and spread out a map of the entire area. “Let’s go straight to the next city.”
Ulugh City
It should also be a city of beast-type demons.
Crossing [Mad Tiger City], traversing several baronial domains, passing through a wasteland, entering the baronial domains surrounding [Black Elephant City], and continuing deeper into the area, you will eventually reach [Black Elephant City].
It will take several more days.
The four took turns keeping watch and resting for one night. The next day, they set off for [Wuxiang City].
……
On the third day, the Fighting Heroes team had not yet achieved their first kill, but there was still one last step left!
The four men lay in ambush on the enemy's likely route, carrying protective items, and were excited about the upcoming first kill.
On a building, four people stood guard at the window, looking down at a street they could just see.
"We'll be able to kill our first level eight demon leader tomorrow. Maybe we'll be the fastest to do so?" Franti, the Flute Hero, chuckled.
"Not necessarily, the Saintess Squad is probably much faster than us." Brazer, the Warrior of Battle, shook his head.
"But it takes us three days to find the first demon leader we can kill. How can we find the others so quickly in three days?" Franti asked, puzzled.
It wasn't that she underestimated the other teams, but she genuinely wanted to know if there were any more efficient methods.
They started using magic on day one.
Is there any faster way?
“I don’t know either,” Blazer said.
He genuinely didn't know, and couldn't think of, a more efficient way to obtain intelligence.
Go ask on the street?
Or should we simply run all over the streets and alleys to search for it?
The fact that heroes don't have an intelligence organization like the Heroes' Alliance among the demons is a very troublesome thing.
Even if you know what you're looking for, finding it is like searching for a needle in a haystack.
These so-called demon leaders reside in places that are difficult for the public to access, and they usually only operate within their own circles.
Even if they wanted to investigate, the four Fighting Heroes had no clue whatsoever.
Who will tell them about the actions of these demon leaders?
So in the end, they could only use the same method they used to find the "black guy".
They had no other choice.
In another city.
The Dragon Warriors team was actually the first to arrive at the target city, but they still spent two days investigating without any clues.
They could only randomly approach a demon on the street and ask, "Do you know whose territory this is?", in an attempt to extract information about the surrounding demon leaders.
However, this method of investigation was utterly useless, except for making the demon leaders flee in panic when they heard the news.
Because of Lana's first move, within two days all the organizations, big and small, in the city learned that there was a "dragon clan" in the city.
Upon hearing that a dragon clan was investigating their whereabouts, even a level thirteen demon would feel uneasy, let alone an eighth-level demon.
On the fourth day, the Dragon Warrior Squad's operation suddenly took a turn for the better.
Demons were waiting for them at their residence early in the morning.
A luxurious carriage was parked in front of the gate, and the visiting demons were all dressed in exquisite attire. △＼∩℃∑~±
"Your Highness, our lord invites you and your companions to the lord's manor."
Lana: "?"
Not only was the Dragon Warrior Lana stunned, but the other three warriors were also completely dumbfounded.
A giant dragon?
What kind of dragon?
The four were unaware of the situation, but the demons who came to invite them were none other than the strongest level thirteen demons in the city!
Taking action or running away are both unwise.
