Chapter 562: Chapter 50 Adonis

Demon Beasts causing chaos was also a godsend for Lu Hong, providing him with a great opportunity to gain a large amount of experience and promote his level advancement.

After Hua Cai had restored her Divine Power, the two decided to go their separate ways. Hua Cai set out for God’s Grace to take the elves’ court away from the Star Sea, while Lu Hong resolved to help the Eagle Alliance fight the Demon Beasts based on proximity.

As for the war among the major powers of God’s Grace, he couldn’t get involved. Even if he admitted he was Tai’e’s son, it wouldn’t change the other party’s decision. Without convincing Tai’e, the war would not end.

Now, all Lu Hong could hope for was that the Holy Divine Empire, the Eagle Alliance, and the Snowy Region, uniting their forces, could defeat the Beastman Empire and seize victory.

According to the latest intelligence provided by Count Bacon’s Mansion, the nearest disaster-stricken dimensional plane from Jiliyaxi was the Adonis plane, a place that Count Bacon had once fashioned into a gold-consuming pit designed for travel, hunting, and entertainment.

The size of this plane was moderate, and its plane level was suppressed to about the early stages of the Second Transition, very suitable for Lu Hong to enter right now.

Lu Hong called to his butler: "Mr. Lai Sheng, do you have a channel to enter the Adonis plane here?"

The butler Lai Sheng, seeing how polite Lu Hong was, hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, the young miss instructed me that whenever you wish to go anywhere, it can be arranged to use the dimensional portal. But...,"

Lai Sheng hesitated for a moment before continuing, "I see your current level... seems to be...,"

Lai Sheng couldn’t bring himself to finish, but Lu Hong didn’t mind and said, "It’s just a First Transition third-level."

"Ah!" Lai Sheng sighed. "Lord Champion Duke, why has your level decreased instead of increased?"

"It’s a long story," Lu Hong shook his head without explaining and proceeded to hand a letter to the other party: "Please deliver this letter to Duke Nuoshan. I hope to use his channel to retrieve some things I left behind in God’s Grace."

"Alright," Lai Sheng respectfully took the letter. "Champion Duke, it may take quite some time to deliver this letter to Duke Nuoshan. You should be prepared for that."

"Thank you for the reminder."

After securing the letter, Lai Sheng continued, "The young miss dispatched an army of twenty thousand to the Adonis plane just six days ago. Although no feedback from the army has been received yet, based on the overall level of the Demon Beasts on the Adonis plane, suppression is only a matter of time. When are you planning to enter?"

"The sooner, the better."

"How about now?"

"That works!"

Lai Sheng nodded, "Please follow me."

Passing through the Count Bacon’s Mansion’s portal, Lu Hong arrived successfully at the Adonis plane.

The moment Lu Hong poked his head out, a strong stench of blood rushed into his nostrils.

Looking around, all he saw were ruins, piles of human and Demon Beast corpses mounting like hills, evidently dead for more than several months.

The foul smell of decay accompanied the blood, filling Lu Hong’s nose and inducing nausea.

Fortunately, Lu Hong, who had weathered many storms, wasn’t fazed by the sight, calmly surveying his surroundings to gather as much useful information as possible.

According to the information Lu Hong obtained, Adonis was one of the first planes Count Bacon prioritized to suppress when the Beast Calamity erupted, almost capturing all of the dangerous Demon Beasts in one fell swoop. After that, Count Bacon entrusted the cleanup operations to Xiao Hui. Half a year ago, Xiao Hui dispatched troops into the Adonis plane, but no messages were sent back, which puzzled Xiao Hui. So another twenty thousand troops were sent in before Lu Hong’s arrival. Similarly, Lai Sheng requested Lu Hong to relay any useful information back as soon as possible to reassure the young miss.

Lu Hong looked down at the dimly lit Magic Array under his feet and immediately understood.

It wasn’t that the soldiers who entered the Adonis plane didn’t want to send messages back; it was that the transport portal had been destroyed, only allowing one-way opening and no return to Jiliyaxi through this portal.

The work of Demon Beasts?

Or was it done by someone’s hand?

Lu Hong surveyed his surroundings cautiously, ensuring there was no danger before he confidently proceeded with the investigation.

Although most of the corpses had rotted, Lu Hong could deduce from their postures what might have transpired here. free𝑤ebnovel.com

The city was initially breached from within by humans. Only after the internal strife did the monster invasion come and completely destroy the city.

However, why the soldiers within the Adonis plane suddenly turned on each other was something Lu Hong couldn’t ascertain.

Walking out of this land of death, Lu Hong entered the dense jungle.

Tracks of Demon Beast activities were everywhere, but not a single trace of the beasts was visible.

Instinct told Lu Hong that there seemed to be some great secret hidden within this plane.

Fortunately, thanks to his lion-blood lineage being of the fourth level, Lu Hong had enough confidence to continue onwards.

Finally, after a two-day journey, Lu Hong stumbled upon a soldier being chased by a demon beast.

The soldier was merely at the First Transition Late Stage, and the demon beast that was pursuing him was only at the third level.

Lu Hong didn’t even use any skills; with one fist after another, he blew the heads of the demon beasts to smithereens.

After eradicating the danger, Lu Hong turned to the soldier and asked, "How are your injuries?"

Clutching the wound on his waist that had been pierced by the demon beast’s claws, the soldier gasped, "It’s... it’s okay, I won’t die."

"Why were you being chased by a demon beast alone?"

Faced with Lu Hong’s question, the soldier showed a significant emotional fluctuation and muttered, "Dead, they’re all dead."

"What’s dead?"

"The demon beasts, the demon beasts! They organized strategically, intentionally split us up and hunted us down one by one!"

Lu Hong took out a bottle of recovery potion and fed it to the soldier, then said, "Don’t worry for now, you’re safe with me here. Tell me everything that happened to you."

Under Lu Hong’s persistent questioning, the soldier recounted his ordeal.

Six days ago, as soon as they had set foot in Adonis, they were attacked by demon beasts. The general immediately ordered a counterattack, sending the demon beasts into a frantic retreat.

After their initial victory, the general left only two hundred men to clean up the battlefield near the portal, while he led the main force to pursue the demon beasts.

He was also part of the pursuing troops. To more thoroughly wipe out the fleeing demon beasts, the general ordered their forces to split into four groups.

But it was this division of forces that sealed their fate.

The soldier’s squadron, after three days of pursuit, fell into a trap set by the demon beasts and were slaughtered within a valley.

He fought desperately to escape and was pursued relentlessly by the demon beasts, until he ran into Lu Hong.

"When I entered, I did not find the hundred-man squad you mentioned near the portal."

The soldier shook his head: "I don’t know about that."

Lu Hong nodded, "You rest here for now. There are no demon beast tracks nearby, you can hide here temporarily. Try your best to conceal your presence to avoid detection."

Given the soldier’s low level, Lu Hong could not bring this burden with him if he wanted to delve deeper.

From the information gathered so far, Adonis seemed far more dangerous than he had imagined. It was very likely that at the beginning, a large number of powerful demon beasts had evaded Count Bacon’s hunt and were now emerging to stir up trouble.

After settling the injured soldier, Lu Hong continued deeper into the jungle.

As he ventured further, the traces of demon beasts began to increase, but their levels were quite low and could not withstand Lu Hong’s iron-fisted receptions.

After trekking for eight days straight, Lu Hong finally heard the cries of humans again.

When Lu Hong followed the sound, he saw four soldiers trapped in a marsh, with two serpent demon beasts flicking their crimson tongues, ready to devour their lunch.

Leaping from a high branch, Lu Hong accurately landed on the head of the large snake and then smashed down his fist; with a terrifying display of brute force, the snake’s head burst on impact.

Before the other beast could react, Lu Hong leaped again.

Seeing its kind slain, the serpent demon beast’s ferocity was awakened. Rather than fleeing, it summoned its magic power and spewed a stream of green venom.

"Be careful, dodge it!" Seeing the large snake spray venom, the soldiers trapped in the swamp hastily warned, "It’s highly toxic!"

Lu Hong stirred up his Fighting Spirit and opened a protective shield, but the venom, clearly augmented by the aura of the extreme demonic abyss, had strong corrosive properties. In just an instant, it penetrated Lu Hong’s defense and struck its target with precision.

Clearly, Lu Hong had not anticipated the toxicity of the venom. Severe pain immediately spread throughout his body, followed by spasms that suggested the poison was taking effect.

"It’s over!" Seeing this scene, a chill ran through the hearts of the four soldiers.

But the next second, the strong healing ability of Lu Hong’s lion-blood lineage manifested. The venom sprayed by the large snake evaporated on the surface of his skin; the festering flesh visibly regenerated and healed.

Witnessing the ineffectiveness of its venom, the large snake seemed to doubt itself, standing stock-still and watching a fist the size of a sandbag coming right at its face to smash down.
