Who told him to rush up there?.

Chapter 86 Dragon Beast
However, leisurely times are always short-lived, as their team came here to explore the way and kill some demons, not to travel.

After simply eating some dry food and fruits, the group set off again.

Not long after they walked, they arrived outside a small city. After Eli's spiritual exploration, he found that there were only a few hundred thousand demon guards in the city, and there were only seven high-level demons, including one at the ninth level, two at the eighth level, and the rest at the seventh level.

Some of them are unexpectedly weak and don't look like cities in a large war zone at all, even though it is just a small city.

Moreover, these demon defenders were all fully armed and looked as if they were facing a formidable enemy, which was completely different from the cities they encountered when they just entered this war zone.

We are clearly in the enemy-occupied area, not the war zone. There are no troops from the coalition of hundreds of races in this war zone. So what are these demons guarding against?
Originally, Eli didn't know the answer to this question, but when a shadow as fast as lightning suddenly broke into his spiritual vision, he roughly guessed the answer.

The shadow moved extremely fast. Although not as fast as Eli's full speed, it was already three times faster than most Saint-level powerhouses. However, the aura emitted by the shadow was only at the ninth level of strength.

When the shadow got closer, Eli led the team to retreat to a hidden place. Fortunately, they came here to investigate quietly, so they kept their breath under control. Even though the shadow seemed very alert along the way, it did not discover them.

Not long after, the shadow also arrived outside the small town, but it was far away from Eli and the others.

It was not until then that everyone except Eli saw the appearance of this unexpected visitor.

It was a black dragon beast. Its scales seemed to absorb the light from all around, making it look dim and gloomy. Its huge head was shaped like a dragon but with some subtle differences. Its two dragon horns looked more like sheep horns.

The whole beast stood on its two thick thighs, about five or six meters tall, and its body was extremely large, but it seemed a little small compared to the giant dragons of the same level.

The dragon beast has a truly bloody mouth, giving people the feeling that it can swallow several cows in one bite. Its neck is short but thick and powerful, and its two long arms are muscular, making it look very powerful. Behind it, its slender tail like a sharp blade hangs on the ground. It looks inconspicuous, but it is actually murderous.

After arriving outside the city, the dragon beast did not rush out, but wandered around outside the city. Several times, it even came near Eli and others. If it were not for the team's good breath-hiding skills, they might have been discovered by it.

After carefully circling the city three times, the dragon beast finally rushed out from its hiding place and headed straight for the small town.

After the dragon beast appeared, the demon guards on the city wall immediately warned the city, but it was too late. The dragon beast activated its speed and leapt onto the tall city wall, swallowing several nearby demon soldiers into its stomach in one gulp.

The ninth-level dragon beast is invincible in front of ordinary demon guards. Unlike the general high-level strongmen who kill demons, the dragon beast's method of killing demons is simple and direct. It either swallows them in one gulp, or beats them to death and then swallows them in one gulp.

Its stomach was like a bottomless pit. In a short period of time, it devoured hundreds of demon soldiers, but its stomach did not swell at all.

Until then, the high-level demons in the city hurried over, with the ninth-level demon as the main force, two eighth-level demons as assistants, and the remaining seventh-level demons could only be responsible for blocking the dragon beast's way.

But with the amazing speed of the dragon beast, those high-level demons could not catch up with it at all, including the demon of the same level as it. Almost as if playing, the dragon beast devoured the demon soldiers along the way while running, completely ignoring the high-level demons chasing behind it.

Before they knew it, the dragon beast had devoured all the demon soldiers it could see. Then, the brave and skilled dragon beast actually jumped directly from the city wall into the city and continued to devour all the demon soldiers it could see.

The reason why the demons in this city are so weak might be because they were eaten by this guy, Eli guessed silently in the dark.

After entering the city, the dragon beast ate even more happily. By this time, its bloody mouth had already swallowed thousands of demon soldiers, but it still did not choose to escape. It seemed that it had not yet reached its eating limit.

Seeing the dragon beast wreaking havoc in the city he was guarding, the ninth-level demon who was chasing after it was so angry that he gritted his teeth. He held a pill tightly in his hand, but he couldn't make up his mind to eat it.

Finally, after devouring nearly ten thousand demon soldiers, the dragon beast seemed to be full. It swung its sharp tail blade, temporarily forcing back the pursuers. Then it jumped up and jumped onto the city wall again.

Seeing that the dragon beast seemed to be preparing to escape, the two deputy city lords of this small town roared in anger, but due to their lack of strength, they could not catch up with it at all. Moreover, even if they could catch up, the two of them, who were eighth-level powerhouses, were no match for the dragon beast.

"Lord City Lord, what are you still hesitating about!"

Finally, a deputy city lord couldn't bear it anymore and yelled at his immediate superior.

This roar made the ninth-rank powerful demon who was indeed hesitant tremble. He was thinking about how his city had been plagued by the dragon beast for so long. He was scolded by his superiors countless times because of the loss of troops and generals. Every time he went to the war zone headquarters to report on his work, the city lords who were familiar with him always laughed at him for being weak and incompetent.

The mayor of this small town clenched the pill in his hand once again, gritted his teeth, and stuffed the pill that was almost crushed by him into his mouth...

As soon as the pill entered his mouth, it turned into a warm current that flowed through his limbs and bones, making the lord of the small town who had been trapped in the ninth level for countless years feel full of strength. No, it was not a feeling, he really was full of strength!
A powerful aura that was no less than that of a Saint-level strongman burst out from him. The dragon beast, which was about to jump out of the city, felt its scales go cold and a chill went straight to its heart.

After taking this pill, he will briefly possess the power of the demon king he has always dreamed of, but after the effect of the pill wears off, he will lose all his strength and be reduced to a level that is even worse than an ordinary demon soldier. This is why he hesitated for so long.

"Go to hell! Damn black dragon!"

A blade of light so powerful that it could suffocate the beast came slashing down, and the dragon beast tried its best to dodge it, barely avoiding it.

But before it could breathe a sigh of relief, another flash of knife came at it, and it had to lie down and let the knife light brush across its back.

Yes, it is very fast, and even the real Demon King may not be able to catch up with it, but no matter how fast it is, it cannot be faster than the swords and sabers of the Saint Rank. The powerful long-range attack is its nemesis.
