After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply-Chapter 662 - 472, Retreat and Return, Magic Flame Strike Annihilation!_2
Chapter 662: 472, Retreat and Return, Magic Flame Strike Annihilation!_2
Suddenly, the silhouette of the Dragonman Soldier emerged in midair, howling skyward, the sound reverberating for miles, tearing open the clouds that blanketed the landscape.
The Demons looked on with uncertainty, unsure what to make of this spectacle.
Difeng shouted tensely, “Everyone, watch out for evasion!”
But Lin Da didn’t give the Demons a chance, swinging his sword broadly, with the Dragonman Soldier mimicking his movement.
A gigantic sword, a hundred meters long, swept towards Difeng and his companions.
Boom!
Like swatting a group of flies, the thirteen members of the Giant Shark Adventure Group were all struck and flung away.
The mages had ashen faces, vomiting fresh blood, some unable to maintain their Magic Feather Wings, needing the support of their comrades.
This was still the result after the front line had absorbed the first wave of attacks; a direct hit would have skinned them alive if not killed them.
“You dogs of the Mystic Continent, I am not done with you!!!”
Furious, Difeng cursed loudly, stabilizing himself before quickly flying back to the mountaintop.
“Captain, they’re there!”
A somber man named Black Crow pointed to the side, speaking with a murderous tone.
The broad attack of the Dragonman Soldier temporarily cleared the mist, revealing a small black dot in the distance.
“Chase them! I won’t be at peace until they’re dead!”
Difeng’s face twisted, his gaze filled with hatred as he spoke.
In the Five-layered Mountain Area, he ruled supreme; never had he suffered such a loss, and even without the bounty of the Demon King’s Castle, he was determined to kill his opponents.
Black Crow said sullenly, “Those dog thieves from the Mystic Continent are weak, probably running low on magic power. Everybody, keep close, and let none escape!”
“Yes!”
The eyes of the Demons revealed their brutal intent to capture their prey.
Maintaining an average level of 45, with the team leader Difeng ranked 201 on the monthly ranking and possessing a Legendary Weapon, ordinary adventurers of level 47 were no match for Difeng.
Except for the black-haired young man who was slightly difficult to deal with, the others could simply be crushed!
“Kill all the men and humiliate the women before killing them. How dare they subject me, Difeng of the Scythe of Death, to such immense humiliation. I won’t let anyone survive.”
Difeng spat out a bloody tooth.
Back in the city, his old friends would definitely mock him.
Against adventurers listed at around 700 and 398 on the Mystic Continent’s monthly rankings, to be in such a sorry state, it’s simply a disgrace to the title ‘Scythe of Death’.”
Difeng’s mind was filled with thoughts of torturing Lin Da, totally unaware that a shadow lurked below.
“Who?”
When it got within thirty meters, Difeng finally noticed something.
The figure, realizing it had been spotted, caused a dazzling purple light to burst from the sword in his hand, mentally intoning: “Magic Flame Strike!”
Difeng’s vision blurred, and his opponent was suddenly upon him.
The Purple Longsword, containing terrifying magical power, slashed towards his companion Black Crow.
Though the damage from Magic Flame Strike was less than Magic Heart Slash, Lin Da wasn’t sure if it would be enough to kill Difeng, a warrior by profession. However, the mage named Black Crow was indeed the murderer of Rand from the White Dove Adventure Group.
Black Crow, focused ahead, failed to notice Lin Da’s approach.
Splurt!
Red fluid shot into the air.
The grim and malevolent expression on Black Crow’s face froze as his severed head rolled off his neck.
As Black Crow’s consciousness ceased, the magic wings on his back disappeared along with his head, tumbling towards the ground.
This unexpected turn stunned everyone in the Giant Shark Adventure Group.
They stood dumbfounded, looking at Black Crow’s corpse, feeling as though they were in a dream.

How could Black Crow, the level 45 vice leader, be killed off so easily?
He had many protective scrolls on him and, with his seasoned combat experience, should have been able to react before the attack struck.
Black Crow’s warm blood sprayed Difeng’s face.
The stunned Giant Shark Leader murmured dreamily, “Black Crow?”
The two had founded the Giant Shark Adventure Group together, close as brothers.
They had vowed to kill a thousand adventurers from the Mystic Continent together.
Now, that number stood at one hundred fifty-eight.
As Difeng grieved, the man who killed Black Crow casually reached out, grabbed Black Crow’s head, and tossed it into a Space Ring.
That blood-stained hand felt like a series of slaps to Difeng’s face.
He hadn’t even managed to recover his brother’s body before his head was taken away!
“No!!!”
Difeng’s eyes were about to split.
A dense aura of death rose above the scythe. The weapon seemed to come to life, transforming into a giant black hand that reached for Lin Da.
It was Difeng’s ultimate skill, Touch of Death!
“We’ll meet another day, I still have to go back and dig out that filthy demonic horn and offer it to the World Tree Goddess.”
Lin Da laughed loudly, immediately activated the second Magic Flame Strike, and flew fifty meters across the sky in the opposite direction of the Phoenix Tail Flower and White Dove.
“Captain, which side do we chase?”
The members of the Giant Shark had bloodshot eyes.
They were angry, trembling.
The death of Black Crow hit them like a heavy hammer to the chest.
“Do you even have to ask?” Difeng pointed in the direction of Lin Da, his voice icy as it squeezed through his teeth, “Black Crow, just wait; I’ll have this kid join you in death soon!”
…
…
White Dove City, Secret Realm Square.
The time was the afternoon, and the temperature had dropped significantly.
The adventurers, having heard that Lin Da and others were challenging the 20th level of Mystic Realm, rushed to the square, looking forward with anticipation, waiting for the heroes to return.
Swish, swish, swish.
A blue light flashed, and the figures of about ten people emerged from it.
“It’s Phoenix Tail Flower and White Dove Adventure Group; they’re back!”
“Hahaha, great, my house’s value is going to increase again!”
“My figurines!”
“Big brother, big sister, you can do it! The principal said that if you perform well on the 20th layer, the merchant uncle will invest to build a training ground inside the school!”
“I wonder what good news Phoenix Tail Flower has brought us this time, I’m so excited, brothers!”
In the square, voices roared, and everyone’s face was filled with joy.
Ever since the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team was founded, every time they entered the Mystic Realm, they brought back a load of good news.
This time was certainly no exception.
It coincided with a day off, and some kids from the Adventurers Primary School also came to cheer for Phoenix Tail Flower and White Dove.
In the vast square, people lined up in two rows, holding baskets of flowers, firecrackers, and some held banners with golden letters that read “Congratulations to Phoenix Tail Flower and White Dove on your return.”
However, the scene they witnessed next was like dry tinder that had just been lit, only to be doused by a downpour, and the cheers in the square gradually fell silent.
The people standing in the back did not know what was going on; even on tiptoes, they couldn’t see what was ahead.
“What happened, did Phoenix Tail Flower suffer a loss?”
“There couldn’t be casualties, could there?”
“Hmph, it can’t be helped. I was talking to a friend yesterday. Phoenix Tail Flower should not have entered the 20th layer yet.”
“Hehe, I guess it’s a case of ‘extreme joy begets sorrow’.”
Most of those at the back were just spectators, mainly passersby.
A young man with earrings and blonde hair sneered, “True gold does not fear fire; stumbling on their first venture into the 20th layer shows that Phoenix Tail Flower is only so strong. Level 42, that must be their limit, right? Still dreaming of reaching the Dawn level, no chance, hehehe.”
Starting from the Moon Rank, adventurers’ level-up speed shows a significant delineation; some progress quickly while others might not move up at all for years.
Holy Rock, Bear Roar, Red Heart—it’s always been so.
The reason lies in the Great Mystery Continent of the 20th layer.
This is a land rich in resources; if one cannot extract resources from it, solely relying on personal cultivation, the speed of level enhancement becomes extremely slow.
Too many “Genius Adventure Teams” before the 20th level have boasted bold and robust presences.
Once they entered the 20th layer and encountered Sunrise Level adventure teams from various regions, and the life-and-death battles with Demons,
they would soon discover that the techniques useful for hunting Magical Creatures were not as efficacious against Demons, who were also “people.”
Adventure teams proficient in hunting Magical Creatures might not necessarily excel in combating Demons.
The taunts by the young man with the earrings hit a sore point for the people of White Dove City.
Perhaps, the Phoenix Tail Flower Adventure Team really wasn’t adept at combating Demons…
Yet, there at the very front, from the World Tree’s hollow, fourteen figures stepped out.
When they entered, they seemed to be, sixteen.
