Chapter 64: Chapter 58: The Inside Story of Turmoil
Demon Suppression City, located at the main exit of the Demon Beast Mountain Range facing human territories.
Due to geographical needs and the unique existence of the Demon Beast Mountain Range, it evolved over hundreds of years and gradually developed into the largest and most important town in the vicinity of the range. It hosted a plethora of mercenary groups, merchants, and adventurers who stayed in town all year round, bustling and extremely lively.
Recently, terrifying roars of demon beasts were heard within the mountain range, suspected to be a crazed super demon beast comparable to the Martial God Realm, and it seemed like the onset of a monster chaos, leading to heightened security. Hundreds of thousands of troops were deployed at the front of the range, prepared for battle.
Even the Royal Capital had dispatched a super expert from the Martial God Realm, causing panic among the residents of towns around the Demon Beast Mountain Range, with many rushing to flee the dangerous area, fearing they would be caught in the chaos.
Despite this, the ancient city of Demon Suppression City maintained its usual bustle and vitality, with countless adventurers still arriving every day, and numerous mercenary groups and caravans coming and going.
The rumors of the monster chaos did not diminish the prosperity of this ancient city, which had stood for hundreds of years. On the contrary, more people were heading to the city, not just from Xiafeng Country, but also adventurers from other nations.
The cause of all this was naturally the huge benefits after the chaos.
Perhaps for many, the monster chaos was a disaster, as historically, every occurrence resulted in massive casualties and devastation. But on the other hand, for many others, it was also an opportunity to gain substantial benefits from the calamity.
After each chaos, alongside the heavy human losses, countless demon beasts would fall dead, permanently leaving their precious flesh and bones, which amounted to unexpected windfalls for the survivors.
Selling these could turn into immense wealth.
The lucky ones might even obtain the flesh of an innate demonic beast or the precious Demon Core, which were truly incredible windfalls.
Naturally, with great wealth came great risks, and only those who survived could claim such riches.
Great interests often lured countless individuals, and for this reason, adventurers from all over did not leave but instead flocked to the ancient city, risking their lives for potential gains.
Amidst the dense crowd and flowing traffic entering Demon Suppression City, there was a solitary, young figure who blended in and entered the town.
This person was Ye Chen.
Clad in a black robe, he walked into the stormy Demon Suppression City along with other adventurers drawn by the news.
After parting ways with Vivian and her group, Ye Chen had lingered in the Demon Beast Mountain Range for three days before finally deciding to leave.
Because he sensed an oppressive atmosphere emerging, a sign that the chaos was about to begin, with numerous birds rapidly fleeing and continuous roars of demon beasts echoing.
And his intuition, which never failed him, sensed the imminent dreadful monster chaos in the range, as foretold by the Anyang Martial God, and it wouldn’t be long before it struck.
The longer he stayed in the range, the more dangerous it would get; the more demon beasts he killed, the heavier the killing aura on him, potentially alerting the super demon beasts deep within the mountains to his presence and targeting him for extermination.
Although he feared nothing, it would be troublesome, so he chose to leave.
Naturally, during these three days, several innate demonic beasts had died by his hand.
After leaving the Demon Beast Mountain Range, he could see the frontline city of Demon Suppression City from afar. Its black walls, a hundred meters high and imposing, were made of hard rock, constantly fortified over the years.
To defend against the monster chaos, Xiafeng Country spared no effort.
Ahead, on the vast plains, a formidable army of three hundred thousand was assembled, a dense sea of heads training under the blazing sun, sweating and ready to fight.
Numerous legions had set traps and established buffer zones on the plains, aimed directly at the Demon Beast Mountain Range.
Ye Chen deliberately avoided these troops. Approaching Demon Suppression City directly from the Demon Beast Mountain Range was unwise and would subject him to military interrogation. Although he was not afraid, he preferred to avoid unnecessary complications.
Entering the city through an alternate route, he also sought to understand the current situation.
Although he had been in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, he did not have complete information, only by reaching the outside world could he learn more about how Xiafeng Country was defending against the monster chaos.
Although three hundred thousand well-armored troops were gathered and stationed, Ye Chen believed that this could not be Xiafeng Country’s only strategy. This kingdom, having experienced numerous large-scale monster chaoses through history, understood better than anyone that just three hundred thousand well-armored troops could not completely fend off the monster chaos. The emergence of a single super demon beast could cause unpredictable and severe destruction.
In a monster chaos, there would never be a shortage of super experts at the level of the Martial God Realm.
Xiafeng Country certainly had further measures yet to be deployed, simply concealing them while waiting for the right moment to
