From the Abyss Invasion to the Blasting Star.

Chapter 67 Blood Shadow Demon
Demons have entered Stonehammer Castle, which is a very dangerous signal for the Bansel tribe.

This sturdy fortress, built on the mountain, is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

There are guards at each entrance, and under normal circumstances, demons cannot get in.

However, the blood dripping from the dark thorn trap was full of demonic aura, which meant that a demon had sneaked into Stonehammer Castle.

In the history of the Bansel tribe, there were only a few times when demons sneaked into their territory.

Every time this happens, it brings a major crisis to the Banser tribe.

Therefore, when Mia shouted like this, the entire Stonehammer Castle was alarmed and the highest level alarm was sounded.

All the Bansel warriors picked up their weapons, rushed out of their homes, looked for their respective teams, and began searching Stonehammer Castle.

Mia ran to the council chamber and informed her father about it.

Iron Arm personally appeared in the Stonehammer Castle Square and arranged for each team to search different areas, vowing to find the demon.

Apparently, the Banser warriors had rehearsed similar situations, so the chaos didn't last long. Dozens of teams of guards dispersed and searched various important areas.

When Lu Heng walked to the square, Tiebi had already arranged the search mission.

Tiebi turned around and saw Lu Heng, then asked, "I heard from Mia that you were the ones who discovered the demon?"

Lu Heng nodded and replied, "Yes, I set a trap and a demon stepped into it. This demon must be of a very high level and broke free from the dark thorn trap."

Tiebi pondered and said, "If it is to break free from the dark thorn trap, the level is indeed not low. We must be extremely careful."

"Then I'll go and help with the search." Lu Heng was worried that the demon lurking in Stone Hammer Castle had other purposes, so it would be safer to find it.

"Okay, thank you for your help then." Tiebi also felt that with one more person's help, they would be able to catch the demon faster.

Lu Heng and Su Muyu acted together, following their intuition to search various places in Shichui Castle.

Su Muyu released a reconnaissance eagle to detect every possible location where the devil might be hiding.

After she obtained the first job rank, the range of the Scout Eagle's invisible detection increased to 8× perception.

34 points of perception expands the detection range to 272 meters.

The detection distance is very large, equivalent to being able to detect invisible units on the ground from a hundred-story skyscraper.

The reconnaissance eagle only needs to fly through the air, and no invisible units on the ground can escape Su Muyu's perception.

"Where could this demon be hiding?" Su Muyu pondered as he searched.

"It must be not easy to sneak into Stone Hammer Fort. Search it carefully." Lu Heng was also observing every corner of Stone Hammer Fort, looking for anything unusual.

The entire Stonehammer Fort was brightly lit, and all the torches were lit, illuminating the corridors around the square.

All the Bansel people were looking for the demon hiding in Stonehammer Castle, but they couldn't find it after a long search.

There were even Bansel beast trainers who were leading hellhounds in search of the scent, but to no avail.

Lu Heng and his companion searched forward along the main canal around Shichui Fort and observed the situation under the water.

While searching, I ran into Mia.

Mia came trotting over with a war hammer and a crossbow on her back, accompanied by a team of guards.

Su Muyu waved and greeted her: "Did you find it?"

"Not yet. I will definitely find this damn demon." Mia responded firmly, then ran towards the square with the guards.

"Come on!" Su Muyu clenched his fist and cheered her up.

After Mia passed by, Lu Heng and the others continued to move forward along the Datong Canal.

After walking about ten steps, the two men stopped at the same time, looked at each other, and said three words in unison: "Crossbow!"

When Mia ran over just now, she was carrying a crossbow on her back.

This would not have been a problem, but Mia had just given her crossbow to Su Muyu half an hour ago.

The crossbow Mia is carrying on her back now is exactly the same as the one given to Su Muyu.

The appearance of two crossbows of the same style is not strange in itself, but if Mia's name is engraved on both crossbows, then there is a problem.

"Mia, wait a minute!" Lu Heng tried to call her back. Mia didn't look back, but suddenly rushed forward.

A sharp light flashed in Lu Heng's eyes, and he activated the Swift Wind Step to chase after him.

The two of them ran along the canal. Mia's speed was so fast that she even jumped onto the wall of the stone fort several times.

Lu Heng also chased after her, shouting, "Stop her! This Mia is fake!"

The warriors of the Banser tribe all knew Mia, and it did feel strange to see her jumping and running on the wall.

However, they were not sure whether Mia was possessed by something, so they did not dare to shoot her with crossbows.

Lu Heng chased Mia all the way, and she crossed the Datong Canal and ran all the way to the Stone Hammer Fort Square.

The Stonehammer Fort Square is directly opposite the gate. As long as you cross the square, you can escape from Stonehammer Fort.

This "Mia" was so fast that even when Lu Heng used the Wind Step to speed up, he could still chase her and couldn't stop her.

When "Mia" ran to the square, the Iron-Arm leader heard the shouting and immediately came over.

When he saw "Mia", he was startled at first, then shouted and rushed over to intercept "Mia".

As a father, he recognized at first glance that this "Mia" was not his daughter.

So, he rushed to "Mia", raised his hand, and slapped her.

Bang!
"Mia" was slapped and flew away, flying more than ten meters and hitting the west wall of the square.

After hitting the wall, "Mia"'s body was squeezed and transformed into a pool of red liquid, which slid to the ground, revealing its true form.

The body of this thing was actually a pool of blood.

Lu Heng recognized it at a glance. It was a Blood Shadow Demon, and a high-level Blood Shadow Demon at that.

"Damn devil!"

Tiebi's face was filled with anger because the demon had turned into Mia's appearance.

He cursed loudly, rushed forward and swung his war hammer, trying to smash the high-level blood shadow demon to pieces.

Although the slap just now reduced the Blood Shadow Demon to its original form, it did not cause any serious damage.

The Blood Shadow Demon immediately turned into a blood shadow, crawled into the sewer next to the square, and fled outside.

Tiebi smashed the ground with his hammer, but missed. He immediately reached into the sewer and dug, but also didn't catch anything: "Damn it!"

Lu Heng thought for a moment, and said quickly: "Captain Tiebi, you go check on Mia, I'll chase her."

"it is good!"

Tiebi was very worried about his daughter's safety, so he agreed immediately and ran to find Mia.

The sewer entrance is very narrow and most people cannot get in at all.

The Blood Shadow Demon can transform into a blood shadow to escape, so it can escape from Stone Hammer Castle through the sewers.

Although Lu Heng couldn't get into the sewer, he had another way. He directly activated the source skill [Shadow Travel]. Instantly, he was in the shadows, ignoring all physical collisions and gaining the ability to pass through walls.

After escaping into the shadows, Lu Heng chased forward along the sewer.

In the [Shadow Walk] state, the movement speed is increased by 300%, and with the second stage acceleration of Wind Step, the acceleration effect directly soars to 500%.

With 5 times acceleration, in the blink of an eye, Lu Heng had caught up with the Blood Shadow Demon.

However, Lu Heng did not show up, but continued to hide in the wall, watching the movements of the Blood Shadow Demon through shadow vision.

The [Shadow Walk] status can only last for 15 seconds.

The time was a little short, but it was enough.

The Blood Shadow Demon didn't think that there might be pursuers behind him, so he retreated along the sewer directly to the outside of Stone Hammer Fort at a very fast speed.

Lu Heng saw clearly the direction of his escape, then accelerated forward, arrived at the sewer exit in advance, drew out the Aurora Blade and waited.
