Chu Qianxun came to the entrance of the Red Wolf Mercenary Corps where she worked in the past and reported that she had returned. She had left for more than half a month and needed to report the situation, indicating that she could continue to participate in the Corps operations.

The clerk responsible for registration opened the record book, “Chu Qianxun, um, let me see. Sorry, Wang Dazhi, the captain of your team, unfortunately died a few days ago in the Demon Hunting operation. Wait a minute,” the clerk said condolence, but there was not much sadness in his tone. He sat there every month. The list of dead people crossed out from his notebook was unknown. For him, reading these had only become a formulaic work. That was it.

“I heard that his wife moved to another man two days after the accident. After that, his child got lost on the black street and no one took charge of him,” the clerk said with emotion, and summed up the situation after the captain died.

When Chu Qianxun and Gao Yan walked out of the guild gate, their heart felt a bit heavy. Their captain wasn’t a particularly good captain, probably because he had a child and wife. Every time the spoils were distributed, the captain Wang would act particularly stunting, always trying to strip as much as possible into his own pocket. When fighting, he often hid behind, and his charge was almost invisible.

But in any case, he wasn’t a bad person. At least he tried not to drop anyone at the end of the battle, and took every injured person back to the base. When there was a conflict between the group, he could always stand on the bullied side fairly.

They knew him for so long. The captain who fought together with them every day was gone. It was just a daily demon hunt, not even in a special large-scale battle. A familiar life didn’t light up any sparks, so it quietly disappeared. The only trace was just a clerk’s scratch on the list.

Chu Qianxun grasped the handle on her waist and walked toward the gate.

It had become her habit to go out to hunt demons every day, obtain crystal cores, and exercise her abilities. The most important thing for her right now was to improve her ability. Only the strong could live without regret.“Qian, Qianxun.” Gao Yan shouted to her, “Will we leave the group?”

Gao Yan’s habit was to travel with the members of the squad. The people of their team took care of each other. The main combatants were at the front. They only needed to stand behind safely. The battles weren’t so hard, and the danger wasn’t so great. Although the loot distributed to everyone was very limited, it could always guarantee food and clothing.

“Ah, no, Sister Yan. You don’t have to,” Chu Qianxun turned her head.

Out of the spring city, her eyes were all on the city ruins.

The original construction of Spring City relied on the construction of an industrial park around a large city in the golden age. Outside the base, the high-rise buildings of the once prosperous city struggled to reveal one or two mottled glass walls among the dense green vegetation, revealing the remains of a highly civilized place that once existed on this planet.

Gao Yan stood on the deserted block nervously. There were only two of them there. She and Qianxun, but they were facing a fierce fifth-order demon. She was used to hiding in a group, and so she felt very insecure.

The demon made a low roar and rushed out of the gap between the two buildings. He slammed the ground with each step.

Chu Qianxun wiped the dirt on her eyes with her sleeves, jumped into the air, and threw out several curved wind blades. The flying wind blades rolled up the dust all the way, slamming up against the demon. It hit the demon’s face and body one after another. Her agile figure turned beautifully in the sky, appeared behind the demon, and stepped on the demon’s shoulder. The sword flashed across and cut the back of the demon, revealing the green color in it. Chu Qianxun was overjoyed, and she could grab the demons by reaching out.

The claw of the demon came suddenly, pierced her shoulder, grabbed her off its body, and threw her on the ground. At the same time, he opened his big mouth and sprayed a corrosive liquid towards Chu Qianxun on the ground. Chu Qianxun rolled on the ground, got up quickly, and evaded the danger. Still, her face and neck were inevitably filled with a little liquid. Her skin corroded and a ray of smoke rose.

She kneeled on the ground on one knee and cursed. She didn’t care and turned over to fight again.

The process of their confrontation was very rapid. Gao Yan had just awakened, and a burst of gravel fell, and on the side of a skyscraper in front of her, a demon with a human face and eagle wings came out.

This fourth-order demon was attracted by their battle.

“Why, what to do? Qianxun. Let’s run?” Gao Yan cried quickly. She was currently in Tier 4 and didn’t think she had the ability to fight demons of the same rank.

“Fourth-order demon, you can deal with it,” Chu Qianxun didn’t raise her head. Her body was covered with smoke, and the sword kept fighting with the demon in front of her.
