Demons Beside You

Everyone wanted to see the culprit Chen Zhao being torn to pieces.

Under the stare of everyone, the Crypt Demon leaped at Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao lifted his right arm and stuck it into the Crypt Demon’s mouth.

Everyone thought that Chen Zhao’s arm would be bitten off in the next second.

However, unexpectedly, the Crypt Demon began to struggle in pain.

It could not even close its mouth, not to mention take a bite.

Chen Zhao pulled his arm back and the Crypt Demon fell to the ground. A lot of blood oozed out from its mouth.

Everyone was stunned and astonished.

What happened?

Why wasn’t Chen Zhao’s arm bitten off?

Why was the Crypt Demon dead instead?

Just now, Chen Zhao had used Needle-Thread Guidance to turn his magical power into a sharp blade.

He essentially cut the Crypt Demon’s throat from the inside.

Agnes’ face was filled with disbelief.

How did the Asian do it?

Fannity moved toward Chen Zhao subconsciously.

She knew that Chen Zhao was powerful.

So since the beginning, she had never joined the team to attack Chen Zhao.

She had been watching the situation in silence.

Like what she had expected, Chen Zhao displayed his power again.

He was the only one who could kill a Crypt Demon in close combat.

Chen Zhao stretched his shoulders and walked toward the exit.

“It’s indeed much easier to use my fists. Guns are useless.” Chen Zhao threw the gun away.

He even removed his bulletproof vest.

The vest was only hindering his movement.

Agnes frowned. “Mr. Chen, it’s too dangerous. Come back.”

Suddenly, a Crypt Demon sprang at Chen Zhao from the darkness.

Chen Zhao immediately grabbed the Crypt Demon’s head and chin.

Crack!

The Crypt Demon’s chin was destroyed by Chen Zhao at once.

Everyone gasped.

Agnes could not help but look at Carlo.

He must have known it earlier.

It was no wonder he had told her to ask Chen Zhao for help when needed.

Since they entered the place, Chen Zhao’s performance had been very mediocre.

Agnes initially thought that she had found the wrong person.

Now, it seemed like she had given the equipment to the wrong person.

The equipment was actually a burden to Chen Zhao.

Another Crypt Demon charged toward Chen Zhao.

Chen Zhao lifted his arm, and everyone heard a clear crack.

It was the sound of bones cracking.

Then, the Crypt Demon collapsed on the ground. The exoskeleton on its head had been completely broken.

Everyone gasped.

The exoskeleton could not even be penetrated with modified weapons.

But it was actually destroyed by Chen Zhao’s arm.

Was his right arm a metal prosthetic?

Chen Zhao rubbed his fist.

It was still painful to use his hands.

Suddenly, Chen Zhao remembered the bronze sword in his spatial ring.

“Huh? Where did he get that sword?

“Has he been hiding the sword on him?”

When Agnes saw a sword appear on Chen Zhao’s hand, she was utterly confused.

She remembered clearly that Chen Zhao did not bring a sword.

After all, on the helicopter, she was the one who had helped Chen Zhao to put on his equipment.

If Chen Zhao had such a sword, there was no way she would have missed it.

Just then, another large Crypt Demon appeared at the door.

“Boss, that Crypt Demon has 99% exoskeleton!”

Agnes gasped in shock.

Could Chen Zhao deal with such a monster?

After all, the more exoskeleton a Crypt Demon had, the larger its size would be. Moreover, its exoskeleton would be thicker.

Suddenly, Chen Zhao jumped into the air, waving the bronze sword in his right hand. Then, he struck the sword hard down on the Crypt Demon’s head.

Ding—

There were some sparks of light. The Crypt Demon’s head lowered, but it did not take any damage.

“F**k!”

Chen Zhao cursed. He originally thought that the bronze sword should at least cut iron like mud.

In the end, it was only a blunt weapon.

Looks like he can’t deal with that Crypt Demon either, Agnes thought.

Thoughts raced across Chen Zhao’s mind. The Crypt Demon’s exoskeleton was way too thick.

Even his right fist might not be able to smash it.

It seemed like he had to activate the Mouth of Glutton.

Chen Zhao called on his magical power. However, it did not activate the Mouth, but rather the bronze sword.

The bronze sword started to vibrate and produce a soft buzz.

“Huh?” Chen Zhao realized that after the bronze sword received the magical power, it was covered in a very thin layer of Qi.

Could this be the correct way to use the bronze sword?

Maybe I should try it?

Chen Zhao stepped forward. The large Crypt Demon pounced at him.

Chen Zhao waved the sword at the monster.

When the bronze sword touched the Crypt Demon, it sliced into its head as if it was a piece of tofu.

Howl—

The Crypt Demon’s forelimbs lost their strength. Its head crashed onto the ground and its hind legs jerked a few times before stopping.

This was really the correct way to use the bronze sword!

The Old Turtle should have given him a manual.

Everyone stared at Chen Zhao in bewilderment.

Chen Zhao had just killed such a monster with a sword?

Nevertheless, more Crypt Demons had gathered outside by then.

There were so many of them that even Chen Zhao had a headache.

Instead of attacking, they simply stared at Chen Zhao.

Of course, they did not have eyes.

But that did not stop them from staring at him.

Carlo looked at Chen Zhao, his eyes glowing with fanaticism.

Chen Zhao was a natural explorer.

If Chen Zhao could join his team, it would be perfect.

They would be able to overcome all difficulties.

Eventually, Chen Zhao ran into the Crypt Demon troop himself.

The rest stared at his back, startled.

How did it feel to see a man charge into a group of monsters?

The first thought everyone had was that Chen Zhao had lost his mind.

But he really did that.

The bronze sword in Chen Zhao’s hand could cut through everything.

At least, when it was filled with magical power, it could slice through anything like tofu.

To humans, weapons were like their talons and fangs.

After they had their own weapons, they could begin to conquer wild beasts.

Nonetheless, there were too many Crypt Demons. Chen Zhao would still occasionally be scratched or bitten.

The rest did not dare to leave the room. It was pure darkness outside the stone chamber.

They could only judge the situation using thermal sensors and sound.

The sound of fighting and killing continued without a pause.

It went on for thirty minutes.

Finally, it was quiet!

Chen Zhao’s entire body was covered in blood, both his and Crypt Demons’.

Even he did not know how many Crypt Demons he had killed.

It was a lot.

The whole passage was piled with the corpses of Crypt Demons.

While Qingyi Armor had protected him from most damage, he was not invincible.

Chen Zhao could feel that there were still Crypt Demons staring at him in the darkness.

If he were to fall now, the hidden Crypt Demons would definitely charge forward and recklessly tear him into pieces.

Chen Zhao turned around and walked back into the room.

“Let’s go.”
