I Secretly Develop Myself In The Demon World

Snatching demons was rare before the other eight counties had collapsed.

Back then, not only was there an abundance of demons, but the guilds were also spread far apart, so conflicts were highly unlikely.

However, major forces have converged now, and there are around a thousand different sized guilds in Zhongtian County.

So many forces gathered in an area with a shortage of demons would resort to any means necessary to complete tasks and become stronger.

For Hunting Demons tasks, as long as they deliver the last hit before the demon dies, it counts as completion.

At first, Su Nan thought that the black-robed players were merely competing to deal the last blow to the demon.

Unexpectedly, instead of going for the demon, those people directly attacked the official players.

“Where did this terrifying organization come from?”

“Could it be from a foreign country? Or are they people from the Destiny Society?” Su Nan could not help but speculate.

Both possibilities are significant.

Although Dongchen State is Hua Country’s territory, it does not mean that all players here are from Hua Country, as there are still a very few players from other countries.

The game allocates players neither by nationality but rather by the region. Players from Hua Country’s area will be assigned to Dongchen State.

Even if they are from other countries, as long as their location in Hua Country is upon first entering the game, they will be assigned to Dongchen State afterward.

This led to people from other countries organizing a group of their compatriots to enter the game in foreign territories.

The second possibility is not small either.

Only those from the Destiny Society from another world would dare to confront the officials directly in Hua Country.

Moreover, those from the Destiny Society like to wear black clothes.

Members of the Destiny Society could not enter the game themselves, but they could cultivate a group of players to serve them.

“Interesting.”

Feeling intrigued, Su Nan did not leave immediately, but instead halted his steps to watch the battle.

There are five spiritual-level players on the official’s team.

Four of them were Spirit-level Early-stage, and one was Intermediate Stage of Spirit Level.

That was a female player in her mid-twenties, with delicate and gentle facial features. However, at this moment, her face was dark and somber.

The black-robed men apparently came prepared, knowing all about the officials’ team, such as the number of people and their strength, and were slightly superior in both numbers and capabilities.

There were seven spiritual-level players among them, two more than the official’s team.

Having expended a large amount of strength fighting the demon, the officials’ team was at a disadvantage facing the black-robed men who were stronger than them and were instantly forced to retreat.

If not for their well-trained and orderly teamwork, they would not have been able to resist the black-robed men at all.

Even so, after two or three minutes, the official’s team began to gradually lose ground, and players started to be killed one after another.

Seeing this, Su Nan hesitated for a moment before calmly walking forward.

He planned to help the officials.

If those in black robes were from another country, he would simply kill them.

But if they were from the Destiny Society, he would not let them off easily.

As Su Nan approached, a spiritual-level player in the black robes said solemnly, “Kid, this has nothing to do with you. If you don’t want to die, leave now.” At this moment, Su Nan’s appearance had changed, and his realm appeared to be in the Spirit-level Early-stage due to the effect of the Pseudo-Breath Stone, so the black-robed man didn’t take him seriously.

Without paying attention to the black-robed man, Su Nan turned to the official’s spiritual-level players and asked, “Who are they?”

At the sight of Su Nan approaching, the officials were momentarily stunned. But after realizing that Su Nan was at the spiritual-level, their faces lit up with joy.

At the moment, they were outnumbered in terms of spiritual-level players. If a spiritual-level player could help them, even if they could not turn defeat into victory, they could at least alleviate their current predicament and buy time for reinforcements to arrive.

The mid-stage Spirit-level woman quickly responded while fighting, “They are from Japan, here to destroy the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition and to prevent the completion of Dongchen State’s Human Tribe Crisis Task.”

“So they’re from another country,” Su Nan nodded, somewhat disappointed. He was now hoping that these people were from the Destiny Society instead. Those people from the Destiny Society have not given up trying to deal with him. Although he could not find them before, now things were different. With the help of the Great Princess, if Su Nan could find the Destiny Society players, she could forcefully extract memories to locate other members of the Destiny Society.

“I am Xu Yulan. You must have heard of me. We are the officials. If you can help us, there will be a great reward afterward,” the woman introduced herself.

“Xu Yulan? I haven’t heard of it,” Su Nan shook his head.

The woman’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, just as she was about to say something when Su Nan added, “But helping you is not out of the question.” Hearing this, the leading spiritual-level player among the black-robed men spoke up in broken Hua Country language:

“Kid, you better think carefully. Helping them now doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll gain any benefits. On the contrary, if you anger us, you will have to prepare yourself for our revenge.”

“If you help us now, I can give you ten drops of spiritual monster essence blood.”

The black-robed man threatened and attempted to win Su Nan over, acting as if he had him in the palm of his hand.

Ten drops of spiritual monster essence blood was no small amount, equal to slaying ten spiritual-level demons, which was a considerable fortune for ordinary players.
