Chapter 161 Leader Of The Fallen! Rank Four Demon Boss!
Countless crystal-like red fragments scattered from the smoke and dust.
The little Saintess lying on Chen Yu's back was instantly pierced by dozens of crystal fragments.
"Heart Seed!"
Several plant life hearts appeared, countless vines forming a barrier, protecting Chen Yu and the little Saintess in the middle.
Chen Yu hurriedly picked up the little Saintess and infused her with vitality.
The corners of the little Saintess's mouth were bleeding, and her breath became very weak.
Fortunately, the faint holy power in her body automatically circulated, resisting the erosion of Abyss magic with all its might.
The addition of vitality also eased her injuries, preventing her from being in mortal danger.
"Who is it?!"
Chen Yu suddenly became furious and looked towards the source of the crimson flowing light.
Not far away, two demons with bat wings were flapping their wings, floating in the air.
"It's rare to see fallen ones and holy ones protecting each other."
One demon showed a cold expression.
"Perhaps this is human emotion?"
The other demon chimed in.
"Abyss demons? It's not that simple." Chen Yu frowned.
After escaping from the town, Chen Yu and the little Saintess had not encountered any pursuers.
He thought that the difficulty of the trial mission was to rescue the little Saintess and find a way back to the sanctuary forces.
From the perspective of a Rank Three holy practitioner, this was almost an impossible task, fully deserving of the Abyss difficulty.
But unexpectedly, before escaping the Abyss-corrupted area, there were actual demons waiting.
These two Abyss demons had powerful auras, definitely surpassing Level 200 boss units.
"They are... Abyss Patrollers," the weak little Saintess said.
"Abyss, the lower-level demons of the border."
"A large... cough... part of them are transformed fallen ones."
"Hahaha, worthy of being a Saintess of the Holy See, quite familiar with us Abyss demons," one demon laughed.
The two demons folded their wings and landed on the ground, walking towards Chen Yu and the little Saintess.
"I didn't expect that the holy practitioner we casually captured would turn out to be a Saintess of the Holy See."
"If it weren't for those holy practitioners going crazy searching for her, someone falling in the great Abyss domain, it would have been difficult for us to discover this information!"
The other demon revealed a greedy smile.
"Sacrificing a Saintess is more likely to attract the attention of the demon gods than sacrificing an ordinary holy practitioner!"
"Go ahead, Guzal! Other demons may already be on their way. Capture her and sacrifice her as soon as possible," the cold-faced demon said indifferently.
"Yes, Monalak! She is destined to be ours! Hurry up and take action! Capture them and don't let others take away our gift!" the other demon said in an exaggerated tone with a sinister smile.
"Guzal, Monalak?" Chen Yu immediately realized.
Aren't they the two leaders in the town of Hakulu?
They had been in the Abyss-corrupted area for so long without being pursued.
Now that they had just escaped to the border, they encountered these two demons.
This meant that the demons might have been waiting for them in the border area for a long time.
In addition, from their conversation, it could be inferred that:
Other powerful Abyss demons had already learned about the true identity of the little Saintess.
No matter which path Chen Yu's little Saintess took, as long as she passed through the border area, she would inevitably encounter Abyss demons!
"It truly lives up to the Abyss difficulty!" Chen Yu couldn't help but smile wryly.
After rescuing the Saintess and escaping to the border, the true strength of the mission was just beginning to show.
If he were an ordinary challenger with only a Rank Three virtual body of a holy practitioner, the Abyss magical attacks just now could have easily taken his life.
These demons are Rank Four BOSSes, and if the little Saintess wasn't injured, she should have the same level of power.
Chen Yu estimated that if an ordinary challenger wanted to pass, they would have to linger in the Abyss erosion zone.
They would have to search for holy practitioners who rushed into the erosion zone and obtain items that could heal the Saintess.
Only when the little Saintess's injuries were completely healed and a group of elite holy practitioners gathered could they make a breakthrough into the border zone.
But Chen Yu had rushed all the way here without collecting much information, so he had no idea that there was a large group of BOSSes guarding the border zone.
At this point, it was impossible to turn back.
Now there was only one way left - to fight!
Chen Yu looked at the two demons.
These two demons stood not far away, keeping their distance from him and watching his every move vigilantly.
"Mayor, the honor of capturing the Saintess should be yours," the smiling demon took a step back and said humbly.
"The rebellion in the town was caused by your subordinates, giving them the opportunity to escape. Now it's your responsibility to catch them and make up for your mistake," the cold-faced demon said in a deep voice.
"No, no, no, this is an honor! It should be yours to obtain!"
...
The hearts summoned by the Heart Seed skill, after adding points, have three times the basic attributes of Chen Yu's original body.
Without any equipment bonuses, Chen Yu's original body has attributes exceeding 3000, which means that each heart has a mental attribute of over ten thousand.
Both demons are Rank Four BOSSes.
Due to their conversion as fallen beings, their attributes are not as exaggerated as true Abyss demons, estimated to be between 12000-13000.
The most crucial point is Chen Yu's extremely high professional attributes.
The professional attributes of the hearts are also three times that of Chen Yu's original self. This attribute value is empty and only provides bonuses, it cannot be consumed.
But in the perception of the two demons, it was terrifying.
Although they were only Rank One beings, the level of Abyss magical power was higher than that of Rank Four Abyss demons. This situation was truly anomalous.
Demons are cunning egoists who like to let others charge into battle while they reap the benefits.
In the face of unknown strength, both demons hoped the other would go and test it out.
They even hoped that Chen Yu and their companion would fight each other to the death, so they could benefit.
The worst-case scenario would be waiting for other demons to arrive.
The value of the Holy See's Saintess is too high, even if dozens of demons share it, they would still receive a generous reward from the demon gods.
Chen Yu saw through the thoughts of the two demons, smiled, stood up, and prepared to take the initiative.
Unexpectedly, the two demons instantly retreated dozens of meters and flew into the sky at the same time.
Chen Yu was dumbfounded and couldn't help but ask, "What kind of Abyss demons are you two? Cowardly demons?"
"Hahaha, a poor attempt at provocation," Gezal sneered disdainfully.
Monalak remained silent but remained vigilant, watching Chen Yu's every move.
"In that case, I'll take my leave."
Chen Yu directly picked up the little Saintess and shot out, running towards the direction where the concentration of Abyss magical power was decreasing.
Several hearts followed closely beside Chen Yu, guarding against the two demons in the sky.
The two demons always maintained their distance and followed closely behind Chen Yu.
