Chapter 425: Heading to the Demon Swamp

~8 min read 1,463 words

As a powerful nation on par with Daxia, the United States had no shortage of Martial Saints, even vaguely exceeding Daxia.

This was mainly due to the fact that the Beast Worship Cult had fewer operations in the United States.

The information Ye Wentian gave showed that the United States currently had 17 Martial Saints on the surface, the strongest of whom was the National Defense Admiral, Yuesehan.

Besides this, the United States also had three top-tier late-stage Martial Saint combatants.

After Chen Fan looked through this information, he set off for the United States.

He did not take any transportation like airplanes, but flew across the entire Pacific Ocean.

When he appeared in Massachusetts, it was already heavily guarded and filled with a murderous atmosphere.

Nearly half of the ability users in the United States had flooded into Massachusetts, and hotels large and small here were almost fully booked.

Chen Fan found a hotel in an extremely remote small town that was not yet fully occupied.

The boss was an old man with gray hair, named Steve.

After Chen Fan finished checking in, he took the initiative to chat with him.

"I see so many ability users have come to Massachusetts; do you know what the situation is?"

Steve sighed, cursed twice that the world was not peaceful, and then said: "A few days ago, a demon appeared in the Jersey Swamp. The federal government sent five Martial Saints to capture it, but they were defeated and returned. And what's even more terrifying is that three of the early-stage Martial Saints among them contracted Blood Addiction Syndrome, and the addiction is extremely severe; only the blood of a Martial Saint level can keep them human."

Following Steve's explanation, Chen Fan finally understood what had happened here.

It turned out that those Martial Saints who had contracted Blood Addiction Syndrome, because of insufficient blood intake, became crazy and actually teamed up to ambush their own Martial Saint kin.

Three Martial Saint powerhouses in the United States were killed one after another. Yuesehan was furious and wanted to wipe them out personally. These people fled into the Jersey Swamp and actually took the initiative to defect to that demon.

Therefore, Yuesehan summoned many powerhouses here, one to clean up the sect, and two to completely wipe out that demon.

"Demon? Has anyone taken a picture of what it looks like?" Chen Fan frowned and asked.

"Yes." The old man Steve put on his reading glasses, and not long after, he flipped out a photo from his phone.

The creature in the photo was humanoid, a zhang tall, its entire body as black as ink, but that scarlet armor was highly recognizable.

"Magic armor? It... has turned into this appearance?" Chen Fan felt his heart pounding.

After understanding the situation, Chen Fan did not stay too long and took the initiative to say goodbye.

Because he was worried that after the magic armor was killed, his treasures would fall into the hands of the Americans, Chen Fan did not dare to delay for a moment and rushed to the Jersey Swamp at the fastest speed.

Seen from a distance, the Jersey Swamp was like a barrier wrapped in black mist, and it covered a huge area, the size of an ordinary county in Daxia.

When Chen Fan approached the Jersey Swamp, the earth-shattering sounds of battle reached his ears.

To be able to make such a commotion, it must be Martial Saint-level figures fighting.

Chen Fan thought briefly and decided to go deep into this so-called Demon Swamp.

With the Glazed Exoskeleton attached to his whole body, Chen Fan put another layer of armor condensed from thunder on himself, and only then went deep inside.

As soon as he went deep, a sky-high stench of blood drilled into his nasal cavity.

Chen Fan realized that this fishy smell came from the black mist, so he hurriedly held his breath and moved forward.

Not long after, he saw the scene of the great battle.

Both sides of the great battle were humans, only that one side had blood patterns all over the skin exposed to the outside, giving people a strange and evil feeling.

"Moret, Zakeluoji, you betrayed the human race and defected to the demon; you deserve to die!"

A male American holding a square hammer cursed while making a move.

Thick earthy-yellow thunder circled on the square hammer, and every time it fell, it was accompanied by terrifying thunder-storm power, shaking the black mist around it away.

Chen Fan recognized this person at a glance. According to the information Ye Wentian gave him, this person was a mid-stage Martial Saint of the United States, named Lei En.

He was good at thunder attacks and thunder defense.

Chen Fan also recognized the two who were named, but what surprised Chen Fan was that these two were originally early-stage Martial Saint cultivators, but at this moment, they were incomparably fierce, and under the joint efforts of Lei En and the others, they did not fall behind at all.

"Lei En, if the Federation hadn't abandoned us, how would we have fallen into this situation? Only the Lord can give us a chance to survive!!" Zakeluoji grinned and made a move, the original wind-type means actually carrying terrifying black magic aura.

Chen Fan hid not far away, his Mimicry ability allowing him to blend in with the surrounding environment, and he was incomparably shocked in his heart.

He was very clear about who the "Lord" in Zakeluoji's mouth was; it was definitely the magic armor, because he was very familiar with that black magic aura; he had been eroded by it before.

It was precisely this kind of magic aura erosion that made Zakeluoji and Moret's strength increase greatly, having the strength comparable to a mid-stage Martial Saint.

"The magic armor can actually transfer magic aura to others?!" Chen Fan secretly thought.

After observing for a while, Chen Fan still decided to make a move to let the balance of the battle tilt.

Because he wanted to borrow the hands of these American Martial Saints to deal with the magic armor.

When Chen Fan appeared, he immediately aroused the vigilance of both sides.

"Indian? Why are you here?" Lei En looked at Chen Fan vigilantly and asked with a frown.

"Don't be nervous, I am here to help you." Chen Fan smiled indifferently, and the next moment the Soul-Howling Roar was activated.

A terrifying sound wave shot out from his mouth, instantly sweeping over Zakeluoji and Moret.

The terrifying magic aura on the two of them, under the bombardment of this terrifying sound wave, was instantly stripped from their bodies, turning into two strands of black aura that dissipated in this Demon Swamp.

Zakeluoji and Moret were like balloons that had been deflated, their aura instantly dropping sharply.

This scene shocked the normal humans led by Lei En even more.

You know, they had used countless methods but could not restrain this kind of magic aura.

Yet it was broken by a roar from the Indian in front of them.

Without time to think too much, Lei En knew this was the best opportunity.

"Go! Kill these two!"

The people around him swarmed up, and in just half a minute, they beheaded the two.

Lei En looked at Chen Fan at this time, his eyes full of suspicion and uncertainty.

"I don't know what to call you, and when did the Indian country produce such a powerhouse as you?"

"I have lived in seclusion for many years; it is normal that you don't recognize me."

"Then... what is your business in my United States?" Lei En stared at Chen Fan vigilantly.

"Are you interrogating me?" Chen Fan said coldly.

"I wouldn't dare!" Lei En hurriedly cupped his hands; Chen Fan's mystery made him not dare to act rashly.

"I am here to help you. The demon you speak of has a grudge with me, and I also want to get rid of it."

Lei En did not know whether Chen Fan's words were true or false, but facing a great master who could restrain magic aura, this was exactly what the United States needed at the moment.

"Then thank you, sir. If we can kill that demon, my United States will definitely build the deepest friendship with you."

"Easy to say." A harmless smile appeared on Chen Fan's face. Friendship? He didn't believe it at all; he believed more that the United States would cross the river and tear down the bridge.

"Why don't you come with us deep into the mist? Yuesehan has already taken people to hunt that demon; if we rush there now, we might still be able to help!" ===== CHAPTER 426 =====
