Chapter 428 The Demon Hunting Squad

"Is everyone ready?" Paul asked, glancing back at his teammates. Next to them was the Demon Hunting Squad and they would be showing how they hunted demons.

Of course, this would be a good experience for Noel.

"Yes. Let's go." Jonathan nodded without a change of expression. If not for the fact they would be working together, he would have used a plank and carried them all with his Telekinesis.

"We'll be the vanguards. You can support us from behind." The Vice Captain from the Demon Hunting Squad didn't forget his pa.s.sive-aggressive comment.

Paul and the others had gotten used to it, so they just shrugged.

The baron saw them off outside the gate as they ran toward the bridge located two hours away from here.

Fortunately, they didn't find any demons in the next ninety minutes. But the closer they were to the bridge, the more demons roamed around.

Their first encounter was with a total of ten demons, eight Low Level Demons and two Mid Level Demons.

Although Paul didn't like them, he still said to Noel. "Iadre. Even though you're a part of our group, look carefully at how they hunt demons. It'll benefit you a lot."

Noel nodded with a serious expression. However, he was also curious about trying it himself since practice makes perfect. He asked, "Can I imitate them?"

"Of course. The others will fix your mess." Paul was supportive since he wanted Noel to gain a lot of experience in battle. That way, the team strength would be boosted to a whole different level.

Noel then gave a thumbs up to Rose, allowing her to use her runes this time. Rose's strength was in her illusion, but these people didn't know about it. Even if Rose used Runes, they wouldn't connect it with Spirit Enchantment.

Since they had reached an agreement, the group fell into silence as Noel observed all the people from the Demon Hunting Squad.

Since the man with slanted eyes joined the ordinary army, the Demon Hunting Squad only had five people left in their group.

"There are ten enemies, I'll take care of the two Mid Level Demons. All of you will take care of the rest."

They acknowledged the order of their Vice Captain and began to spread their formation.

The demons seemed to be a group of cows. They had been demonized, resulting in a pair of humongous horns on their head. Even their skins had become pale as if they were fused with minerals.

As expected of the demon hierarchy, the Low Level Demons hurriedly charged forward to protect the two Mid Level Demons.

At the same time, the members of the Demon Hunting Squad increased their speed.

The short-haired woman, Becky, turned her hands into crystals. After that, she jumped forward, facing the enemies before anyone else.

"Haaaa!" Becky roared and grabbed two horns, which were supposed to be her targets. She used her muscle and spun her body, using the momentum to throw the two Demon Cows to the side, striking both sides.

"Moo?!"

"Moo?!"

The two Demon Cows ended up cras.h.i.+ng into four other cows, leaving the rest confused.

But because of that distraction, the other members of the Demon Hunting Squad could unsheathe their weapons and deliver a killing blow to the fallen demons.

It was swift and precise. Becky even came back and smashed the heads of the two cows she had thrown earlier.

As for the remaining two cows who were still standing, the Demon Hunting Squad split into two groups and killed them.

With this, only the two Mid Level Demons remained. Their Vice Captain came forward this time. He gathered his Spiritual Energy into his fist before punching forward, sending the shock wave produced by the Spiritual Energy forth.

"!!!" Noel widened his eyes because the shock wave crushed the Mid Level Demons' heads before obliterating their bodies. There was clearly a difference in power between Paul and their Vice Captain.

"What do you see?" Paul smiled, noticing Noel's change of expression.

"They're amazing. That woman provided a distraction so that the group could eliminate the enemies quickly. They're aware of each other's abilities, so when they have to divide their group, they can do it with anyone. And in this case, they make a pair with the nearest one.

"Last but not least, their Vice Captain might be a muscle brain, but his instinct is quite good. I believe he's showing that power because he wants to show us that he's reliable enough to handle this mission.

"And more importantly" Noel paused for a moment as this was the most important thing he found. "The only ones who used their Spiritual Energy were their Vice Captain and that woman. The rest only relied on their weapon mastery."

That was right. Even though the Demon Hunting Squad looked reckless, they still knew how to pace themselves. There was no way they would use a lot of their Spiritual Energy right away.

Noel's opinion about them had changed a lot.

"Should we do it too?" Rose smirked. "I can provide everyone with the distraction and even boost your abilities."

"That sounds good. Though, we might have to use our Spiritual Energy since some of us don't use weapons or have the necessary power to kill the demons in an instant." Jonathan nodded in agreement.

As he said, the only ones who could imitate the Demon Hunting Squad would be Stella, Ben, Paul, and Noel. Jonathan and Zion had to rely on their Spiritual Energy, while it was impossible for Rose to not use her Spiritual Energy.

"We'll let them do it for a bit until we reach an area with a denser population of demons. At that time, try it. It might be useful for our group." Paul smiled, giving them permission.

Their group was special since they had to do everything themselves, from construction to battle. So, they gathered all the knowledge they could and made it their own. This was the reason why Noel joined the squad in the first place.

Since they had permission, the group smiled excitedly. "Understood."
