Capítulo 1125: Chapter 549: Ascending to Overlord (2)

Their combat power is naturally strong, but you can tell from their attitude towards Dolls. They can’t be as unaffected by the curse as Li Ye.

According to Mingxia King’s deduction from Ten Thousand Dragon Lake, Li Ye’s curse was upgraded due to some sort of change.

It became a higher level curse, able to ignore the influence of other Spiritual Ability Users’ curses.

From Zhu Ye’s Memory Fragments, it’s known that Li Ye’s original curse should’ve been Heavenly Slaughter Star, not Calamity.

It’s estimated that Mr. Shadow’s existence upgraded Li Ye’s curse.

Of course, Li Ye feels that Calamity is slightly better than Heavenly Slaughter Star.

At least, Dolls and his sister are no longer lonely, not influenced by Heavenly Slaughter Star.

In Zhu Ye’s timeline, he and Li Yunyan communicated through various door boards passing notes… it was truly hopeless…

“Having you is enough, my teammate. During my ascension, I’m not without combat power. Though not as fierce as Yang Chen Champion, I’m still capable of action.” Little Mad King paused: “Moreover, humanity can hardly allocate more combat power now.”

This made both of them sigh quietly.

Humans are still at too much of a disadvantage compared to Horror Demons.

Although. The appearance of Imitative Heavenly Soldiers has somewhat alleviated the pressure on humans.

But the Imitative Heavenly Soldiers also need human intelligence.

Recently, elite teams have been continuously dispatched to either seize airdrop supplies, investigate underground passages, or support and rescue various shelters.

The combat power of the human side is still insufficient… or one might say, the number of Horror Demons is simply too high.

Especially the Insect Swarm and Green Skin type Horror Demons, their troop generation speed is outrageous.

Apart from various shelters, these Horror Demons can be seen in other areas.

They monitor the movements of various shelters while snatching human airdrop supplies. Occasionally, they also harass shelters.

Li Ye as Champion, sits in the branch office.

While colleagues from Champion Team One repeatedly strike out.

Cheese and the others dispatched seven times in one day, annihilating over a dozen waves of Horror Demons, rescuing and escorting trapped civilians.

This makes her exhausted, sometimes unable to finish her coffee before feeling sleepy.

She can only ask Li Ye to help her wash her body.

It’s not about being coy or flirtatious, she’s just truly worn out.

This day’s workload is even greater than a year’s worth in Giant City.

Sometimes they feel like a brick, where it’s needed, it’s placed.

This is an unavoidable situation, the existence of resurrected Horror Demons made their numbers overwhelm humans.

On the human side, over eighty percent are civilians. They can only deal with plagues while training new soldiers and manufacturing more Imitative Heavenly Soldiers.

Without a decisive measure, this plan indeed seems feasible.

“I’ve discussed with my teammates. They can’t protect you up close, but they can ambush from a distance, attack Horror Demons. Killing even one leader would be good.” Li Ye said.

Little Mad King lowered her eyes and said quietly: “Thank you, teammate. Having you… I feel much more relaxed.”

She knows very well that without Li Ye, she might not even be accepted by the branch office.

Because, before Illusion Change used her appearance to attack several strong individuals.

Some say she’s a traitor, once assassinated human strong individuals.

Some say she’s a believer of Jile, once tempted soldiers with desire.

Some suspect she’s already twisted.

In short, there’s no trust in her.

In this situation, let alone ascending as a protector, she’s estimated to be besieged by human strong individuals.

“You don’t seem like it, teammate. Could you be an Illusion Change?” Li Ye jokingly said.

Little Mad King showed the small bottle in her hand: “Want to check?”

“No need!” Li Ye waved it off.

Little Mad King nodded and turned to leave the room: “You should rest first, I’ll ascend in about ten hours.”

“I have the Heaven and Earth Cage.”

“No need, keep it for capturing and killing.”

Subsequently, Li Ye informed the Old City Lord and Champion Team One of the news.

The City Lord has certain doubts about the plan, but after rational analysis, he still deployed artillery support. To prevent leaks, he didn’t reveal the plan to soldiers, just instructed them to fire at specific targets.

And after Champion Team One colleagues verified their identities.

On the current map laid out, they pinpointed the most suitable ambush location and the ascension location for Little Mad King.

Because during ascension to Overlord, there’s significant impact on the Physical World. So, her ascension must be far from shelters. And must be within artillery range of branches or other shelters, for cover.

Finally, the location was confirmed, at a university in the Ba Shu Mountain City Ring District.

There’s only an abandoned shelter there now, with no human activity. Moreover, even if the Insect Swarm or Green Skin launches an attack, support can be obtained from branch and shelter artillery.

Thus, after a simple rest for a few hours, the group left the branch office swiftly without alarming anyone.

….

On the other side, in a corner of Disaster Fog, pieces of jade lit up.

Projecting the powerful silhouettes of Horror Demons.

The recent Insect Swarm and Beastman attacks have made them somewhat understand the distribution of human combat power and support speed.

This allows them to analyze a better attack plan.

“What about the Hunger and Plague Horror Demons? Up to which generation?”

“Fourth generation. First targeted by humans, assassinated twice in the other Two Realms. Third generation, in our Three Realms, we also found it. But that Female Assassin is strong, we couldn’t protect it. Fortunately, there are many humans afraid of plague, though due to its uniqueness, not multiple can appear at once, but the fear supports the generation switch. But unclear about the possibility of a fifth generation.”

“It’s a pity, the fourth generation was captured by the Eternal Life Faction, they seem very interested in plague Horror Demons of such rule-based type. They attacked forcibly and took the Plague Horror Demon.”

“Dogs of Chaos… instead of corrupting humans, they make trouble for us.”

“Well, if humans were all corrupted, they’d inevitably summon the Great Demon Projection, or even Ascend Demon into a Chaos Prince, which would be troubling.”

“Hunger Horror Demon appeared in the Second Realm, its influence range is larger, even affecting the Three Realms. No need for us to worry for now.”

“Both First Realm and Second Realm achieved good results, the Corpse King of First Realm is about to reach Supreme Strength. The Empress of Second Realm, her combat power is terrifying, not sure if she killed her Primordial. Currently cannot be contacted. In our Third Realm… it’s a stalemate.”

“Couldn’t take down the human branch office, allowing humans to catch their breath. The Planting Beans into Soldiers tactic is too superb.”

“Extracted from the brains of human Spiritual Ability Users, it’s technology of Ancient Heavenly Court.”

“Humans have been glorious as well.”

“Who hasn’t been glorious? Silent Annihilation Civilization was even more glorious than humans!”

“Enough, keep analyzing. No one wants to hear about your master’s glory.”

Several highly intelligent Horror Demons, through a certain connection of consciousness, learned of intelligence from other Two Realms. And through the communication of jade, began to analyze the current battle situation.

While the silent Rakshasa King quietly watched the golden words on their body gradually dissipate.

Suddenly, he looked up sharply. In the next instant, more Horror Demons detected a change in the Void Realm.

The immense Spiritual Power Pressure swept over like a tsunami.

That is… a human ascending to Overlord!

“Who is it? Could it be… Champion? I said we should have hunted him!”

“No, it’s not him, it’s the Female Assassin who killed the third-generation Plague Horror Demon!”

“Is it dangerous?”

“Very dangerous, I suspect she has some means!”

“Just her assassination abilities are dangerous enough.”

“Dare to ascend to Overlord in Disaster Fog, block her! Kill her!”

And Rakshasa King also silently rose, as the golden patterns gradually disappeared, his aura grew stronger.

“Alright, I’ll join you!”
