From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword-Chapter 286 - 232 Black Stone City_3
"In fact, whether the Main God exists is still an unknown,"
"I’m more inclined to call the entity issuing tasks the world will."
"Based on the current task information, the world will issuing the tasks knows there’s a Traitor among us, but it doesn’t know who the Traitor is."
"Maybe the Abyss will is also protecting the Traitor, concealing the Traitor’s characteristics."
Su Muyu pondered and asked, "Then how do we determine who the Traitor is?"
Lu Heng spread his hands and answered, "Only through the behavior logic of the Traitor."
...
After setting the action plan, Lu Heng rode the Mechanical Tiger, Chongming Bird carried Lin Zeyu, and Su Muyu spread her wings and flew into the sky.
The three flew towards Black Stone City from the air.
The flight speed was fast, so by the time they arrived near Black Stone City, night had just begun to envelop the Molten Lava Plain.
The three searched in the air for a moment and located a squad of Bloodline Demons, then they directly descended.
Solar Wind kicked up, Source Energy Shock Bombs, Thunderous Heavenly Prison, all energy attacks bombarded down.
In one encounter, all five Bloodline Demons were wiped out.
Su Muyu picked up the dropped Crystal Cores, glanced at them, and stored them in her inventory.
The Skill Levels of the three were quite high now, so killing ordinary Demons—even if they dropped Crystal Cores—wouldn’t usually lead to an immediate increase in Combat Power.
Lu Heng used the Illusion Pearl to transform into the appearance of one of the Bloodline Demons.
"I’m heading off, find a place to hide and don’t get discovered by the Bloodline Demons."
"Okay, don’t worry about us. If you encounter danger, send us a signal, and I’ll come to your aid immediately," Su Muyu instructed.
Lu Heng waved his hand and walked towards Black Stone City.
As the night fell,
The darkness enveloped the imposing Stone City ahead.
Because the Stone City was surrounded by a Molten River, even at night, one could see the red glow rise from the ground, outlining the silhouette of the black Stone City.
Lu Heng followed the uphill road toward Black Stone City.
After dusk, Bloodline Demons inside Black Stone City started coming out to forage outside.
Although Bloodline Demons are one of the more intelligent Species among Demons, their discipline is not particularly strong.
These goat-headed, human-bodied Demons also have poor communication skills.
Usually, only High Rank Bloodline Demons would use vocal calls to issue commands.
Normally, Bloodline Demons don’t communicate with speech. If they need to communicate, they use a few simple roars to express emotions.
This was also a reason why Lu Heng dared to infiltrate Black Stone City alone.
Since Bloodline Demons seldom speak, less talking reduces the chance of being exposed.
Moreover, due to the lack of discipline, even though they go out in groups to forage, there’s no strict formation.
A single Bloodline Demon can walk as it wishes without other Bloodline Demons intervening.
Only when a High Rank Bloodline Demon appears would these lower Level Bloodline Demons act respectfully.
Lu Heng walked up the road by Black Stone Mine and encountered several squads of Bloodline Demons out foraging. Among them, one or two Bloodline Demons made a deep sound expressing certain emotions.
Hearing this sound, Lu Heng didn’t respond and continued walking forward as if he hadn’t seen the Bloodline Demons at all.
This behavior, if among Humans, would be considered aloof and antisocial.
But among Bloodline Demon groups, it’s the most normal response.
As long as the other party is not a High Rank Bloodline Demon, just ignore them.
Lu Heng followed the mountain road up and arrived in front of the gates of Black Stone City.
The drawbridge at the gate had already been lowered, and several Bloodline Demons were coming out.
Lu Heng quickened his pace, stepped onto the drawbridge, and walked toward the gate of Black Stone City.
Just then,
A High Rank Bloodline Demon appeared on top of the city gate and roared down.
Roar!
All the Bloodline Demons on the mountain road below shuddered, turned around, faced the direction of Black Stone City gate, and stood respectfully with heads bowed.
Lu Heng quickly came to a halt, bowed his head to the High Rank Bloodline Demon above, and stood quietly waiting.
At this moment, absolutely no movement was allowed; any twitch would certainly expose him.
