Zion cooperated with the nt Lord, trying to locate the other two nts. They were following the nt Lord and moved stealthily to avoid the demon''s detection.
The Demon Extermination Squad managed to kill all the demons quickly and precisely, allowing them to die before they could do anything.
It seemed that the nt Lord also helped them by asking the nt to help him. He extended the nts and captured all those demons so that the others could kill them for him.
As for Zion, he had an easier timepared to the rest. His role had changed from mapping the area and gathering the necessary items they could find in this ce to someone who helped the nt Lord locate the nts.
They moved swiftly and found the second nt not far from their current location. The nt Lord immediately checked the nt and confirmed its identity.
Then they continued to move to the third nt. They had a hard time finding this one because it was the nt that didn''t have anybody on the first floor. Unlike the other two nts, its body was hard to find.
They had checked the branches or leaves that stuck out around the top floor, but most of them belonged to the two nts. The rest were wild nts that weren''t as mighty as the other two.
So, they had to keep searching, wondering where they could find the third nt.
However, everything changed thirty minutes after they found the second nt.
A demon suddenly let out a roar as if it noticed something.
*Roar!*
This roar was different from the rest as it wasn''t followed by another series of roars but a series of actions.Content is ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.
"!!!" Zion widened his eyes in shock as he checked the area around, wondering if the demons woulde to them.
The members of the Demon Beholder Squad even took a peek at the void to check the condition on the other floors.
It was chaotic. Some of the members who were outside earlier were taken aback by the roar and ended up facing the demons. These demons let out a roar to inform their people.
Meanwhile, those who were inside were trying to erase their presence, doing their best to wait until the situation calmed down before continuing the exploration.
He gritted his teeth, wondering what they should do. On the one hand, their floor seemed to be safe, as they had killed almost all the demons on their floor. The remaining demons would go to their destination without passing their location, so they could remain here and remain undisturbed.
On the other hand, the current situation was worse than he thought. The demons had found at least two out of the five groups. Even if they came out and brought those two squads away, the demons would still be rmed.
However, that nightmare didn''t stop there.
There was a sudden surge of Spiritual Energying from the bottom floor.<novelsnext></novelsnext>
The increase was so drastic that it rmed him, who was sensitive to Spiritual Energy.
''This is… a Superior Demon?'' The guy thought while taking a peek at the bottom floor, wondering if there was a demoning out. He wanted to see whether there was a hidden entrance or not.
However, he couldn''t see anything as the Spiritual Energy gradually changed its position.
''He''s leaving?'' The guy gritted his teeth before moving away, informing the others. "The situation is not good. The demons have located the Stone Lord and Captain ra''s squads. Captain Shale seems to be hiding at the moment, but I can''t see anything regarding the bottom floor…
"And judging from the surge of Spiritual Energy, I''m afraid a Superior Demon has left the building. There might be more Superior Demons since the Superior Demon this time casually leaves its nest. What should we do, Sir nt Lord?"
The nt Lord narrowed his eyes for a moment before pointing upward. "We should go to the rooftop. With the current situation, the demons will have a hard time hearing the door being sted open. We will use the rooftop to check the situation around the building and try to evacuate. I believe the other two squads are going to retreat since the Superior Demon has begun to move. We should regroup with the others first and thin out their number before continuing the exploration."
The others seemed to have no objection. Although the building was quite tall, they weren''t so weak that they couldn''t jump off the building. So, it was better to figure out the situation.
Without hesitation, the squad immediately returned to the passage and sted open the door, allowing them to reach the rooftop.
They remained low so as to not show themselves to the demons. Meanwhile, the guy from the Demon Beholder Squad kept checking the situation around, finding an escape route.
After five minutes, he came back and informed them of the good news. "I''ve found the escape route. Captain ra and Stone Lord''s squads are heading to the north, so the demons are chasing them right now. We should go to the south and head back to the camp to get reinforcement or at least regroup with Captain Shale."
They didn''t have any objections. Without hesitation, they moved toward the edge of the building.
They took a peek first to make sure the demons weren''t waiting for them down there.
After they were sure that the demons were chasing after Captain ra and the Stone Lord, they jumped off the building and started retreating from the area.
However, none of them realized what happened on the top floor.
On the tree trunk and branches the nt Lord found at first and on the branches of the second nt, there were some mushrooms that weren''t supposed to be there earlier.
Two types of mushrooms seemed to have grown in a short amount of time and were releasing their pollen. The pollen was invisible to the naked eye and didn''t have Spiritual Energy, so no one seemed to have noticed it.
Though, there might be someone who has realized the entire n.
The top floor might look empty, but the shadow of a few objects seemed to be moving despite not having anything that could interrupt the source of light.
