If they are friends, then we can use them to kill a large number of demons and obtain intelligence from them.

If he is an enemy, then when he comes out, he will first deal with the other demons around.

The result was obvious. The four small figures hid in the group of demons, and the full-strength attacks of both Shiloh and Ailo were capable of destroying the wooden cage prison cart.

There are special magic circles engraved in the prison car to limit the use of magic power, and there are also chains to restrict the prisoners' movements.

But the prison van itself was not very sturdy.

As long as the prison car is destroyed and the magic circle is ineffective, the prisoners can use their magic again, and the chains will only serve as decoration.

An Yi had also kidnapped prisoners from the demon clan, so he knew.

As for why stronger materials are not used, it is simply because the wood of the prison car is made from a special magic tree, and there has been no technological breakthrough in other materials.

After destroying the prison car, Irev began to fight back.

She could kill a large group of level three and four demons in an instant with just a wave of her hand, scaring the surrounding demons into fleeing in all directions.

The level 5 and 6 demons began to suppress her with all their might, probably using some special magic items.

At this moment, the Sword Demon also arrived.

Looking at the opponent's exaggerated attributes, there should be only one word in the mind of the Hilo team...

run!

Run quickly!

That is not an enemy they can defeat!

However, the prisoner was already weak and was in a bit of trouble under the siege of level 5 or 6 demons.

If the Sword Demon is allowed to join the battle at this time, the prisoner will surely die!

In addition, their sudden attack had exposed their strength and stature.

If they run away, all the work done so far will be in vain.

Moreover, it will probably be even more difficult for humans to sneak into this city in the future.

They have to give it a try!

Bring this powerful aid back to human territory!

So, Shiloh took action.

She fought the Sword Demon alone and died together with him.

The three people who were assisting witnessed her death and were then forced to flee.

Sadly, they did not bring back the prisoner.

Ilef fought and ran, and by the time they came to their senses, they had already flown to the other side of the city.

And when the humans saw Ileph again...

That is the story of the sword hero.

At night, returning to the underground base of humans, Likolina and Sisilin learned some of the demon language.

Naturally, a demon child also told them the words on the bulletin board.

and so……

“I know why they care so much about that killer!

Because in a few days, a wanted demon will be sent to this city!"

Licolina said so.

155 Begging for food? What kind of food?

"In a few days, a wanted demon criminal will be sent to this city!" said Likolina.

Layton: "Begging for food? What kind of food?"

"It's an important prisoner." Shiloh reminded with a smile, and folded his hands like a senior.

"In other words... they are not trying to protect any important people, but to prevent accidents while escorting prisoners?" Ailo reacted.

"But how did you know?" Shiloh couldn't help asking.

“They used a large notice board to announce the prisoners to be transported.

We didn’t know how to read, so we specially went to learn how to read the demon language.” Likolina explained.

“I see…” Sephy frowned in thought, “If that’s the case, then everything makes sense.

When Shiloh went to kill the demons, the prisoners had not yet been escorted in. After the killing, they were worried that Shiloh was an accomplice of the prisoners, so they dared not escort him into the city.

Because it is open to the public in advance, a large number of people will surely gather at that time.

Once fighting breaks out in the city, civilians will inevitably be affected.”

An Yi: “…”

All we can say is that they are still used to guessing about the demons in a human way.

What's the point of affecting civilians? The death of thousands of civilians is not a big deal at all.

Oh, the death of twenty or thirty thousand people is not a big deal. As long as the prisoners are handed over, residents of other territories will come to help reproduce.

"Wouldn't it be better to ask people not to gather together?" Leighton asked.

"Humph! A noble may give up anything, but he cannot lose face!

We promised to catch the serious criminal. If we go back on our word, how can we save face in front of the public?!"

Shiloh snorted, recalling some bad memories.

Ai Luo thought: "Face...

Well, Her Highness the Saint is right. They will have to escort the prisoners in in a few days.

Even if it's not in these few days, it won't be delayed too long.

Xi Luo is right. If it drags on for too long, the demon nobles will lose face."

Saifei stood up, her petite body about the same height when standing as when sitting: “I think.

We're all thinking the same thing, right?"

"I have a very bold idea!" Shiloh said excitedly, then crossed his arms and shook his head, "But if I don't tell you, you will persuade me to calm down anyway."

"No, this time we might be as impulsive as you." Ailo smiled.

"Oh!" Licolina also became excited, "It seems that everyone thinks the same as me!

Well! My answer is——

"Rob people!"

"Me too!" Shiloh slammed the table.

Saifei chuckled, “Heh, now the demons don’t even know we exist.

It would be impossible for them to guard against our attack in advance.

Since this is a prisoner that they absolutely do not want to be kidnapped, he must be an important person to the demons.

If you save him, you will definitely get something unexpected!"

"I object. It's too dangerous."

At this time, a calm voice came from the side.

Unexpectedly, An Yi took the initiative to object.

Obviously, in the past, no matter what choice everyone made, he would always say "whatever".

Of course, An Yi didn't really object.

He was just testing.

Test whether these people are overestimating their capabilities or have already made corresponding plans in mind.

"I agree with what Brother An Yi said. It's too risky." Leighton raised his hand.

Miluko also agreed, but she kept silent.

An Yi continued: “We don’t know the specific strength of the enemy, nor the scale of the enemy, or even the identity of the criminal.

What if while we take the enemy's territory, we are also forced to reduce our manpower, and then the gains we gain are not proportional to the losses?

This is the territory of the demons. We can't come and go as we please.

Any demons present at that time may attack us."

"Then if you see you can't win, just run away." Shiloh shrugged.

However, after she blurted out this, everyone fell silent.

Everyone was thinking about something and the scene fell into silence.

Shiloh: “???”

Did I say something I shouldn't have?

"This...you all say something! Did I say something wrong?!" Shiloh was anxious.

"No, I think you're right." Ai Luo said solemnly, "Mr. Carl also reminded me...

We were a bit too careless.

Should have been more prepared.”

Saifei also nodded deeply: "Yes."

"Then... let's investigate for two days first?" Shiloh thought that it was fortunate that the silence was not because of him, so he continued.

Licorina also nodded: "Okay, then let's investigate for two days, at least confirm the identity of the criminal before making a decision?"

"And also make an escape plan," said Sephy.

"It's better to plan an ambush location." Ailo nodded.

"Oh! What a hassle!" Shiloh scratched his head and said impatiently, "This!

If there is no result by then, we will retreat, is that ok?

Our mission has been accomplished anyway.”

Suddenly, everyone turned their attention to Shiloh.

Shiloh looked around unhappily: "What's wrong?"

The corner of Ai Luo's mouth twitched. "Nothing. I just didn't expect the word 'retreat' to come out of your mouth."

Licorina also laughed dryly and said, "Well...I usually do most of the talking."

Shiloh glanced at Xisilin who was looking at him, then snorted and turned his face away;

"If there really is a demon stronger than us, of course we have to run away if we can't defeat it!" she said.

It wouldn't matter if something happened to her alone, but Xisilin is also here.

In this devil's den where enemies are everywhere.

She wanted to chop the demon nobles to pieces with one blow.

But, similar to what An Yi said, it is more important for them to avoid risks than to take risks, and they should not gamble with their lives.

You shouldn't risk your life for a prisoner you've never even met.

An Yi stood up and walked towards the door of the conference room, finally stopping in front of the door:

"If there is no actionable plan with minimal risk, then my opinion will remain the same as it was tonight.

Firmly oppose taking risky actions.

If you can come up with the best answer in the next two days, I will consider agreeing with your approach and will assist you.

Otherwise, my top priority is to bring the intelligence back to human territory."

After saying that, An Yi opened the door and left the meeting room.
