Chapter 81: Demon Suppression III

This time, we were prepared, and even ran away a few seconds early.

Everyone ran out in time.

Boom!

The hall exploded!

Mission Prompt: Demon Suppression. 2, the Suppress Demon Energy Castle mission has been completed.

Mission completed.

But Su Sheng glanced at the experience gain.

Sure enough, Su Sheng hadn't guessed wrong.

Although this is a Level 35 Elite Boss, for some reason the experience is pitifully low.

No wonder, last time I soloed the experience and didn't level up.

But it's not a big problem.

"This Boss's experience is so low,"

At this moment, Zhou Qiqi spoke up to complain.

At this moment, everyone finally noticed the experience value,

"Alright, nothing to complain about; the puppet minions ahead already gave a lot of experience. Let's go see the Boss's drops," Lin Huan said with a smile.

Combat loot.

Everyone eagerly entered the hall to look at the Boss drops.

Although they're all Level 35 gear, being prepared is always good.

Three blue, two green, no purple.

The resident Boss's blue gear is decent enough, after all Su Sheng, such a badass class, still has two white‑base items.

Su Sheng liked one of the armors and took it without hesitation.

Demon Puppet Leg Armor, armor (blue)

Defense: 150

Bonus: HP +400

Bonus: Strength +30

Level: 35

Description: (omitted)

Although 30 Strength is useless for Su Sheng, the basic defense and the first HP bonus are still quite appealing.

The rest aren't for Su Sheng, so Lin Huan handled them.

"Huan Jie, we could consider buying some Heavenly Craft Stone so we can use this equipment sooner," Su Sheng suggested.

"I know."

Lin Huan nodded; this point Lin Huan would naturally consider.

"If only there were Divine Craftsman Stone," Li Wenwan sighed at this moment.

"What are you thinking? Divine Craftsman Stone can't drop at this stage, and even if it did, the town's enchanter can't enchant it; as for the Grand Guild's enchanter, they haven't trained yet," Li Wenyan laughed and complained.

Divine Craftsman Stone is a tier above Heavenly Craft Stone and can lower equipment requirements by 10 levels.

But at the current stage, Divine Craftsman Stone cannot appear.

Su Sheng smiled, probably understanding why Li Wenwan wants Divine Craftsman Stone.

The fire‑type Mage's staff that dropped from the Fengluo Wutong Dungeon previously required Level 25.

Although it's only blue, for the fire‑focused Phoenix Blood Mage Li Wenwan, it's a perfect fit.

If nothing goes wrong, that staff should be in Li Wenwan's hands.

If there were Divine Craftsman Stone, the current Level 17 Li Wenwan could pick up that staff.

Li Wenwan naturally knew this, stuck out her tongue, and started play‑fighting with Li Wenyan.

"Alright, Wenwan sister, you're already OT; if you equip the new gear, it'll be fine," Su Sheng said with a smile.

"Hehe, it's not just my problem," Li Wenwan said defensively.

Everyone laughed; indeed that moment was indescribable, no one expected three skills to land Weak Point Critical Hits simultaneously.

Then everyone exited through the castle hall's exit.

Sure enough, the castle's countdown reset to 72 hours.

"Come on, shove all the Demon Energy Cores in,"

Su Sheng called everyone to jam the freshly collected Demon Energy Cores into the gate's crevice.

In the end all the Demon Energy Cores were jammed in, leaving 16 hours on the gate this time.

Su Sheng raised an eyebrow; were so few Demon Energy Cores produced this time?

But the 16 hours can be done again tomorrow.

"From now on, let's each go level up," Su Sheng clapped his hands.

The first time, the group spent over four hours fumbling through the castle.

This time, being familiar, the group didn't need the three hours.

"Good!"

Although Li Wenwan's damage output is high, the Huakai women don't plan to level here; they're only Level 17‑18, while the lowest monsters here are Level 30, so it's not worth the effort.

Then the group crafted a Return City Talisman together; the forty‑plus minute journey made them too lazy to walk back.

A mount would be nice.

But at this stage, the mount and pet systems won't open that early.

After returning to the city, Su Sheng separated from Huakai's group.

Alone, he came to the Demon Suppression Office to submit the quest.

"Haha, Chivalrous Knight, you really didn't disappoint me; the Demon Energy Castle has been suppressed again!" The Chief of Demon Suppression Office lavishly praised Su Sheng.

Quest notification: Congratulations player for completing Demon Suppression II.

Experience +1000000

Demon Suppression reputation +100

Another million experience points.

Adding the experience previously given by the castle, although it's an average split, there's still quite a bit.

Swish~

Coincidentally, Su Sheng reached level 22, his experience was just right, and the overflow experience was only a few hundred points.

Tsk tsk, this quest's experience is truly abundant.

Level 22, attack-defense balance exactly 510, health reached 2770.

Opened the level ranking list.

All the major guilds have started to exert themselves.

Uniformly level 20, second is Shen Wang at level 21, but third is Twelve-winged Angel still at level 20.

These major guilds level up really fast.

"Next is the true Demon Suppression trial; Chivalrous Knight, are you prepared?" The Chief of Demon Suppression Office solemnly looked at Su Sheng.

"Always ready!" Su Sheng answered immediately, but this sentence made him slightly dazed, recalling his previous military life.

"Good, southwest of Wutong Town there is a Great Rift; at its bottom a Demon Commander hides there to heal his wounds. Although he is a wounded Demon Commander, he is truly from the Demon Realm; I hope the Chivalrous Knight can help me hunt him." The chief spoke to Su Sheng.

Quest notification: Demon Suppression III.

Suppress the Demon Commander at the bottom of the Great Rift.

Yes/No accept.

Accept!

Looks like this is a boss quest; Su Sheng guessed it's probably the final step of this Demon-Driving Token quest.

He looked at the quest coordinates; it's far!

At minimum, the journey will take about one and a half hours.

This time going out, because he was alone and the quest coordinates were far, Su Sheng didn't use Invisibility, but instead walked openly out of the main gate of Wutong Town.

Soon Su Sheng showed a Taunt demeanor; indeed someone was following behind, though he didn't know who.

Because he wasn't in a hunting state, Su Sheng's agility was only 41 points; even a full-agility assassin could keep up even with Invisibility slowing them down.

However, it's obvious that those assassins' Invisibility, in the face of Su Sheng, this assassin ancestor, is full of loopholes.

Even without specialized detection skills, Su Sheng could confirm their position through clues.

However, Su Sheng also ignored them; if you have the ability, just follow.

As Su Sheng went farther, the monsters' levels kept rising; after 30 minutes, basically no players could be encountered.

After 35 minutes, the surrounding small monsters were all level 30.

And just at this moment,

Ah!

A miserable cry came from behind.
