Chapter 429 Imitating

"We're approaching the bridge!" Paul stated while Rose confirmed the increase of demon population in the area.

"We will go straight to the bridge and think about the rest after we reach that place." The Demon Hunting Squad's Vice Captain, Richard, shouted.

"We'll be following his instructions this time. Take out your weapons." Paul warned his group as he pulled out his warhammer.

All of them nodded with serious expressions, knowing it was their chance to s.h.i.+ne.

"There are sixteen demons ahead!" Rose shouted, informing both squads.

"We'll take care of ten of them. I'm sure you can handle the rest, right?" Richard asked Paul and his squad.

"Of course." Paul snorted. Although the Demon Hunting Squad was good, he believed his squad wasn't that far off either. After all, they were the subordinates of Clara, who was known to be an undefeated healer.

"Ben and Stella will become the vanguards. Paul can stand by and help anyone that needs it. Iadre and Zion will help the vanguards respectively, and Jonathan will conserve his stamina." Rose gave an instruction.

"Got it." They agreed without hesitation. They knew Rose was thinking the best for the team. Even Jonathan wasn't bothered by the achievement.

The vanguards sped up and matched their pace with the Demon Hunting Squad.

"Huh?" The people from the Demon Hunting Squad were quite surprised to see these people could keep up. However, they couldn't a.s.sess them since they had reached the demons.

*Clink!*

Blades and claws clashed against each other. The demons tried to stop their momentum before devouring them. On the other hand, the two squads planned to kill them as soon as possible.

The momentum they had formed wasn't that easy to stop. When the demons used their bodies to reduce their momentum, they ended up getting pushed back, providing an opportunity for these people to strike.

Ben waved his blade to the side, causing the monster to stumble to the side. At that time, Noel sliced the monster's neck by taking advantage of Ardagan's sharpness. It was a clean cut and the demon died without even letting out a sound.

The same applied to Stella and Zion. Both killed their targets in rapid succession.

However, the real contributor to this swift fight was Rose.

Rose provided them with two things. The first was the distraction. Right before they clashed with the demons, she released an illusion to disturb the demon's focus, creating a big hole in their defense. The second one was the Runes.

She utilized Increase Agility Rune and Strength Blessing Rune to boost their overall ability.

Even the people from the Demon Hunting Squad were shocked by how the Demon Relief Squad killed their targets so effortlessly.

It was more efficient than them. If the brain of their squad, the man with slanted eyes, was here, he would have seen through the core of the group, Rose.

But Richard could only think the Demon Relief Squad was hiding their true strength this whole time.

Feeling their place threatened, Richard gritted his teeth and exerted a bit of Spiritual Energy to kill all the demons.

He punched the demon in the face, releasing a burst of Spiritual Energy that blasted the head.

The power was so overwhelming since the head exploded. But his action caused his teammate to use their power as well, not wanting to lose.

They recklessly spent their Spiritual Energy. Even though the amount wasn't that big, it was still an important part when battling against numerous demons.

When Noel saw their reaction, he couldn't help but remember what his father had taught him in the past.

"I'm going to teach you how to be a leader." Luke smiled and raised his finger, "I only have one rule as a leader. I'm not asking you to keep a tab on everyone under you. You are bound to have a lot of subordinates in the future, so it's impossible to look out for each of them.

"You just have to pull them with your charisma. No matter how rough the situation, never show a troubled face. If you look lost, your subordinates will follow you."

Noel remembered it clearly and saw the meaning of those words. Because of their overwhelming strength, Richard thought he couldn't lose and release more strength. The team followed him and unleashed their power to kill the demons.

If he was like the leader in his father's mouth, Richard would maintain his calm and keep going forward. It wasn't like they were slow in killing demons anyway.

'A leader huh…' Noel muttered inwardly. He hadn't shown much of his emotion in the past when leading the group because of this teaching. As a result, he managed to overcome many situations while Anna still thought everything went according to his plan.

This time, the group managed to kill the demons within half a minute.

They stopped for a moment as they took out the Demon Crystals. And the one who carried the bag filled with crystals was none other than Rose.

She volunteered earlier. Because she didn't have any combat ability, she thought it would be better if she became the porter while maintaining her support and surveillance.

For Noel, it was a sign of her improvement, which he wouldn't reject.

As soon as they grabbed the Demon Crystals, they continued moving toward the bridge, killing numerous demons in their way.

It took them twenty minutes before they finally got a sight of the bridge. The bridge was made of paved stone and stretched over thirty meters. Underneath the bridge was a big river that flowed to the east and with a river this large, the bridge was vital for transport.

So, seeing the bridge's condition made Paul frown. Although it wasn't destroyed, it looked battered as if the demons had been hitting it with their bodies.

There were still some demons on the other side that seemed to be hunting fish around and ended up stumbling to the bridge, causing it to shake.

"There are demons on that side, we have to kill them first before a.s.sessing the bridge!" Rose shouted, pointing her finger at the demon's location.

"You heard her!" Richard nodded, instructing his people to hunt the demons.
