Chapter 598: Chapter 270: Becoming a Demon

Inside Yuezhou City.

The Moon God, dressed in auxiliary army armor, holding a horizontal knife and a curved knife, approached a certain noble’s mansion.

Half an hour ago, he was still complaining about his and Bai Yujing’s terrible luck.

As part of the garrison, perhaps they would still be fighting Chaos until the task was completed, and he wouldn’t even be able to see the enemy’s shadow.

But now, Moon God’s gaze was somber.

It seemed that he was misled, thinking that he had been teleported to the inland and needed to join the Great Tang army in order to fight Chaos.

In fact, the incident was happening inside Yuezhou City. Or rather... Yuezhou City was within its scope.

The mansion was filled with the stench of blood. The neighbors had reported the issue to the authorities, but neither the government officials nor the auxiliary army that came had come back out after entering.

Even the armored soldiers of the three battle groups made no sound after entering.

Simultaneously, this phenomenon appeared at various locations throughout Yuezhou City.

Players hidden in Yuezhou City quickly realized that the enemy had struck.

Moon God came for this reason, knowing that Li Changhe was currently dealing with three rebel battle groups, and his own side would not be much easier.

Supporting him were two official players and his best partner, Chi Yao.

As for the remaining official players, they were investigating elsewhere.

"Be careful. Those Chaos believers or Chaos players are obviously trying to cause unrest within Yuezhou City. There might be traps," the official player warned through his communication device.

Moon God replied, "Even if there are traps, we have to go in. Otherwise, if we let them create Chaos minions, we’ll be in even greater danger. I’m ready to go in. What about you?"

"Ready."

"Good." Moon God drew his twin blades.

"Be careful, senior." Chi Yao, hiding in the shadows, contacted Moon God through [Friends]: "If it’s really not working, just come back. I’ll give you a buff."

In fact, Li Changhe had never seen the strongest state of the [Moonlight Throne].

The effect of the [Moonlight Throne] was actually related to the gathered moonlight. Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for Moon God to activate the most perfect Moonlight Throne.

However, Chi Yao’s [Spirit Body Illusion] just happened to make up for this.

"Hahaha, of course! With you, I’m invincible!" Moon God replied, truly grateful for his junior’s help.

Originally, this Great Tang mission was extremely dangerous for players like Chi Yao who hadn’t reached level 9.

But still, Chi Yao followed Moon God into the mission, trusting him. Or perhaps there was a bit more to it...

As Moon God and an official player entered the mansion, they saw the mountain of corpses.

The owner of the mansion, his servants, the auxiliary soldiers who came to investigate, and even the armored soldiers were all killed, their bodies piled up on each other.

Chaos minions crawled out from the pile of corpses.

"Yo... Welcome to the Great Tang." Moon God chuckled, swinging his twin blades, scattering them like stars.

...

The massacre inside the Yuezhou Army Camp quickly came to an end. Most of the hundred regular armored soldiers, thousands of auxiliary soldiers, and tens of thousands of conscripts were dead or injured.

The sudden lethal attack and disparity in combat power completely sealed their last chance to survive. They never expected the hero battle group to raise a butcher’s knife against their own people.

Regular soldiers were cut in half by Chainsaw Axes and pierced through their armor by Eight Ox Crossbows.

Martial arts masters and even Martial Extraordinaries were trampled to death by the armored soldiers.

The auxiliary soldiers and conscripts had no power to fight back against the Dragon Might Battle Group.

Then, from the mountain of corpses in the camp, a large number of Chaos minions emerged.

They resembled humans but differed in various ways. Their red skin was covered in strange patterns, and their black fangs and white eyes were intimidating.

They rushed out of the barracks fortress, launching a terrifying attack on all living creatures outside.

Their first opponents were the Auxiliary Army soldiers patrolling nearby. The unrest within the camp was no longer a secret, and the soldiers who had escaped by chance brought out the terrifying truth.

So on the road leading to Yuezhou City, a Great Tang military instructor led his few remaining soldiers into battle formation to face the terrifying Chaos minions.

Crossbow bolts were fired in unison, and Chainsaw Halberds rang out, fully unfolding the curtain of the third Great Tang war against different races.

Their goal was to buy time for the people of the nearby Great Tang to escape into Yuezhou City.

They were not fighting alone, as many Tang people had come to watch the ceremony of this great conscription.

And with the Tang’s emphasis on martial prowess, there were countless skilled individuals among the civilians.

When the military instructor commanded the battle, many chivalrous martial artists and talented scholars joined the fray.

This temporarily suppressed the Chaos minions, and hundreds of them were scattered by the battle formations.

But when the armored soldiers of the Dragon Might Battle Group rushed out of the camp, the carefully maintained battle situation collapsed.

Just like facing the armored soldiers of other countries, they were beaten back one step at a time.

Powerful crossbow bolts failed to penetrate the armored defense, and Chainsaw Halberds could only leave white marks on the armor. The martial arts experts were even more miserable, trampled into mush by the iron cavalry before they could even display their extraordinary combat skills.

Not everyone could withstand the armored soldiers with a fleshly body like the personal soldier Yang Dong, let alone this group of established hero battle groups. Even Holders had to avoid their sharp edge.

When the military instructor’s head was crushed by a giant steel hand, the entire battle situation completely collapsed.

All they could do was try their best to delay the Dragon Might Battle Group’s butcher’s knife.

A scholar drew his sword and yelled indignantly, but was met with a merciless chainsaw axe.

A martial arts expert threw a punch to block the way, but could only make the armored soldiers halt their steps briefly before being hammered to death.

Great Tang’s unparalleled weapon was now aimed at its own people.

In the crowd fleeing towards Yuezhou City, a woman holding a child sobbed inconsolably.

The captain whose head had been crushed was her husband, and she had planned to surprise him at work with their child.

Unbeknownst to her, she had witnessed the most desperate moment in her life.

But she couldn’t die; she had to preserve her husband’s only bloodline.

The gates of Yuezhou City were in sight, but the heavy footsteps behind her were getting closer. They were the unique footsteps of the armored soldiers. In the past, the people of the Great Tang would offer blessings and respect upon hearing this sound.

Whenever armored soldiers patrolled the streets, they would be adorned with gifts from passionate people. The soldiers took pride in this.

But at this moment, these footsteps were like the hypnotic funeral bell. Wherever they went, there was only slaughter and no mercy.

The cries of the soldiers and martial arts masters trying to stop them had completely vanished.

Just as the woman thought she and her child were about to enter the Netherworld.

A familiar vibration and furious roar came from the woman’s front.

"Traitors, die for me!"

The ground trembled as a blue-armored figure, wielding a chainsaw axe, stepped out of the city gate and collided with a red-and-black-armored soldier. Behind him, more blue-armored figures roared and swung their axes, halting the advance of the traitor soldiers outside the city gates.

The Yuezhou City garrison had arrived!

They saved the nearly dead woman and the last survivors.

And the man who took action turned out to be the captain of the fourth squadron of the regular battle group, whom Li Changhe had met. He angrily roared at the traitorous Dragon Might soldiers, "You beasts!"

He knew that these men before him had once been his brothers and comrades.

But now... they were no longer!

"Fire at full force! Show these beasts the power of the Great Tang garrison!" The captain roared, and simultaneously, crossbow cannons on the city walls all fired, suppressing the offensive of the traitorous army and the Chaos followers for a time.

Even facing the strongest battle group, they still had the ability to defend.

"Xue Shen, if you have the guts, come out and let me cut off your dog head!" On the city wall, the fourth squadron captain was already severely injured. When the incident occurred, he had been targeted for assassination, but a barrier of ice from an unknown source blocked the deadly blow.

This allowed him to repel his enemies successfully. Consumed with endless fury, he ignored the pain in his body and roared, commanding his soldiers to fire the crossbow cannons.

He knew that Li Yang and the others would not return.

They, along with the Thousand Cattle Guard and others, had been surrounded by the traitorous army. And even if they went to assist with their meager forces, it would be futile. All they could do now was to defend Yuezhou City tenaciously!

White King, who had hurried back, saw this scene. Her bone bow was pulled open in vain, but she did not rashly attack the fourth squadron captain.

She knew that someone was waiting for her to make a move.

As soon as she exposed her location, they would launch a deadly attack.

There must already be long-range [Player]s ready to snipe these Chaos believers at any time.

Otherwise, the defensive power of Yuezhou City would have been broken long ago.

It seemed that the players in the city were quick to react, eliminating the preparations they had made earlier.

She knew that with the progress of the plan, the military power of the Great Tang had been completely locked down, and even several loyal battle groups had been wiped out.

But the danger of the players had not diminished in the slightest.

[Participants: 409]

During the chaos, more than ninety players left the Instance. Some had used coins to escape, while others had been killed outright.

Many companions had died as well.

Some players chose to expose their identities and fight their enemies with their swords.

And other players continued to hide their identities, waiting for the right moment to strike a deadly blow.

For example, if they revealed themselves now they would be attacked by the battle groups. Even the Holder could not escape death in such a situation. In this case, it would be better to expose their identity as late as possible.

"However, the plan was still successful. As long as you continue to hold them off, victory will belong to us." White King looked at the towering city wall, knowing that the number of people within the city had reached an all-time high.

Not only had the population increased due to the large-scale conscription, but also the upheavals had forced many people to flee into Yuezhou City for refuge.

In this way, more than half of the plan had already succeeded.

Yes... their plan was to make a blood sacrifice of hundreds of thousands of people in Great Tang to please the Evil God and achieve their demonification!

Inside Yuezhou City, fierce battles had erupted time and time again.

Some players cooperated with the garrison soldiers, allowing Yuezhou City to remain unbeaten thus far.

And that was the only thing they could do.

A considerable number of Chaos believers had already infiltrated Yuezhou City, systematically and purposefully targeting [Player]s for assassination, or attacking the armored soldiers.

Yuezhou City would not last much longer.
