God-level Hero-Chapter 1200 - 1114: The Final Battle Site with the Blood Demon King

At the center of the Flying’s Holy Vine Central Village, the "sky" of the village is the terrifying Corpse Mountain’s stomach space. Two hundred and eighty Evil Demons are working tirelessly to collect flesh essence from the top of the Corpse Mountain to refine nutrients for the Holy Vine as quickly as possible to speed up its recovery.

Tamilia flew into the space, seated to command operations, while thick vines as large as giant pythons transported enormous ribs from the bottom of the Corpse Mountain. These are the long-missed bones of the Hydra. While hundreds of other corpses have been completely digested in the intestines, the bones of this Hydra, which has absorbed the World Tree’s nutrients for a millennium, remain indigestible by the Holy Vine.

With the coupling effort of the crane-like Parasitic Vine, these ribs were transported out of the space, and the waiting Angel Army outside used their strength advantage to lift them into the large hole at the bottom of the Flying. Catherine personally commanded emergency field repairs, binding these ribs together like a raft to act as a supporting structure, attempting to temporarily alleviate the crisis of the Flying’s potential midsection break.

Time swiftly passed in the frantic emergency repairs. Da Fei watched both the Demon King resting in the sea and anxiously supervised the current repair operations, his heart filled with unspeakable panic and dilemma.

His panic was rooted in the thought that if the Demon King’s recovery speed surpassed Da Fei’s repair efforts, the consequence would be unimaginable! The dilemma emerged from the consideration of whether to deploy troops below to harass, or even decisively counter-kill.

Since entering the game, Da Fei has successfully turned countless crises into opportunities, yet seldom has his emotions been this complex. Indeed, his entire fortune was invested here; the fear of gain and loss was incomparable to the carefree courage of earlier days. This increase in self-confidence also led to a growing subconscious timidity— one might call it being prudently cautious.

Da Fei realized he erred from the start! Ultimately, he underestimated his opponent. Da Fei, ever optimistic, believed he had managed the pace without destroying the mining site, expecting God-level opponents wouldn’t appear easily or be this strong, so he hesitated to fight to the death. Blindly fleeing has now resulted in this dire situation.

The correct approach should have been to send a unit to harass the Demon King, disrupting his rest and impairing his aim! However, doing so might result in the unit perishing without a chance for resurrection. To put it clearly, they would be cannon fodder shielding the Flying’s retreat. But is it necessary to go this far? Da Fei couldn’t bear to think!

Perhaps the old granny was right; he wasn’t ruthless enough as a commander— not even a competent player!

Torn by indecision, Da Fei had no choice but to once again inquire Anlicia: "Has the Illusion Army’s spell cooldown ended?"

Anlicia replied solemnly: "Almost! But magic coordination can only be used once a day, so later we’ll rely on Miss Selvia to perform it. As long as we create three more illusions, we can still further stall the Demon King, right?"

As expected, the same old trick! However, this wasn’t the answer Da Fei wanted. Even if he lost the gamble before, he could hold on and survive. Now, any loss would be disastrous! Da Fei longed for those 2000 catapult bombs; if not for using them up during the hurricane, he could have taken advantage of high-altitude bombardment, hurling them at the Demon to disrupt his recovery.

Perhaps it’s worth listening to Miss Hilda, this God-level NPC’s perspective. So Da Fei hurried to the Central Village to find Hilda: "Miss Hilda, do you have any suggestions?"

Hilda shook her head with a sigh: "Perhaps you should speak with the Dragon Mother you captured? Her hatred and understanding of the Demon King might not enable her to act, but she could probably provide intelligence on the Blood Demon King’s weaknesses, right?"

Da Fei raised an eyebrow, that’s a point! This Cindigosar surrendered to deal with the Demon King, didn’t she? He hoped she had regained consciousness by now. But ever since being guided by NPC Hilda, it must surely progress the storyline, meaning consciousness restoration must happen.

Thereupon, Da Fei immediately entered the Holy Vine Cargo Space. Under the watchful eyes of standard troops and Nasir, a chain-bound Cindigosar was trembling on the ground, making the chains clang along with her motion.

She had awoken! Da Fei wasted no words and directly addressed the matter: "Let’s set aside our previous dealings for now. I am currently battling Blood Demon King Azak, do you have any thoughts or suggestions?"

Cindigosar’s eyes slit open slightly, a flash of light glinted: "I originally wasn’t interested or planning to speak with you, but upon your arrival, you’ve broached my topic of greatest interest! My advice is to go all-in; don’t worry about Azak fleeing—his escape would result in punishments more severe from the higher Demon Gods. Losing to mortals is a shame the Demon Race would never forgive."

Da Fei’s heart trembled, indeed that was a valuable tip! The major barrier to decisively counter-killing is that a Demon King of his stature can opt to flee if overwhelmed, but if the system has coded him to battle to the death, then the lure of god-slaying and obtaining a Divine Artifact, plus the opportunity to feed the Holy Vine Space with divine flesh—how immense is this temptation?

Da Fei further inquired: "Do you have any specific tactics?"

Cindigosar coldly snorted: "Just lead this entire cabin’s troops and that wooden giant out to fight a death battle altogether!"

Damn! Easy for her to say! These troops will get trounced! Da Fei frowned: "Could you be more specific?"

Cindigosar ridiculed: "Fighting a Demon at the Demon King level, what tactics besides fighting with all your might? I have nothing more to say; the Demon King won’t give you much time to continue jabbering."

Da Fei’s brow tightened; although she had said almost nothing, it truly conveyed a fundamental truth. As long as ultimate victory is achieved, any fallen troops can eventually be resurrected! Thus, there was no need to agonize over whether or not to dispatch cannon fodder as rear guards.

What’s crucial is winning! At that moment, Da Fei focused on Nasir! In the old days, he could withstand several blows from the Hydra directly—strength like this shouldn’t be wasted! He must join the battle against the Demon King! And as for the land battle location?

The Volcano Crater!!! Instantaneously, Da Fei’s mind was clear!

Consequently, Da Fei excitedly returned to the deck of the Flying and inquired: "Can the Flying move now?"

Catherine replied: "The internal framework has been fixed with dragon bones; don’t worry, a gust of wind won’t break it! But the hole can’t be repaired, though fortunately, the Flying doesn’t need to submerge."

Excellent! Da Fei waved grandly: "Sky Ship, descend rapidly, return to the volcano crater! Quickly!"

"Received! Captain, sir!"

Anlicia surprised: "Lord City Lord’s intention is?"

Da Fei smiled: "Don’t you think it’s the only place on the map that can avoid the Blood Cannon’s attack?"

Anlicia responded in surprise: "But we’ve seen it before, the Demon King can vortex teleport to the bottom of the volcano and attack from there!"

Da Fei laughed loudly: "And then we can fly out from the volcano crater to evade!"

Anlicia’s brow furrowed: "But what if this Demon King lands and blocks the crater?"

Da Fei clenched his teeth: "Then it’ll be time for the final battle with the Demon King, and we must win!" (To be continued.
