Chapter 168: On the Crusade

The number of demons was impossible to count. Just within Yakumo's sight, there were hundreds of demons. Among these demons, the middle and lower level demons occupied the majority, with only a few high level demons mixed in.

The Great Demons... haven't been seen yet. Yakumo can't be sure whether there are only a few Great Demons left, or if they are waiting for his physical strength and magic power to be exhausted.

"If it's the latter, then it's a pity that your plan has failed." Yakumo had already started applying buffs when he arrived at the entrance of the Demon King's Castle. It was precisely because of the buffs that the breath blocking magic became ineffective.

For the demons, magic detection is a natural ability. As long as unfamiliar magic appears in the range, they can quickly sense it. That is why the surrounding demons are so angry.

The enemy has already entered the Demon King's Castle, and they just reacted? !

"Intermediate demons... so weak..." Yakumo couldn't help but sigh at the passing of time. When he was still in the small village, he had no power to resist the lower-level demons. Now, only eight years have passed, and the high-level demons are no longer his opponents.

The lower and middle level demons were just cannon fodder in this situation. However, under the command of the higher level demons, they had no choice but to rush towards Yakumo. Countless magics exploded in front of Yakumo.

All these low-level magics were blocked by the compound defense magic, without even a ripple. Yakumo placed his wand on the standing defense magic and placed another piece of defense magic in front of him.

Both he and the high-level demons knew that this was just a waste of his energy. Yakumo simply didn't hide it and fired his magic cannon at full power. Anyway, their only goal was to enter the Demon King's Castle, so he occupied the position at the entrance of the Demon King's Castle.

Numbers have lost their meaning. After all, the passage is so narrow, unless other demons are willing to blow up the Demon King's city directly.

Three circular magic circles appeared at the front of the magic wand, and the magic cannon passed through the three layers of magic circles and was magnified. The warrior-type demons couldn't even get close, and those intermediate warriors were directly melted in the magic cannon.

It was like a hot knife cutting into butter, and a straight line was instantly cleared. This exaggerated performance made the demons pause for a moment. They wanted to stop Yakumo and others from entering, not to commit suicide.

If it wasn't for the order from the high-level demons, the first thing they would think of when seeing this scene would be how to save their own lives!

But now, they had to move forward. In the Demon King's Castle, the Demon King faced the attack of a brave team alone. Of course, they believed in the Demon King's strength, but what if? The opponent had wiped out three Xinmeier teams of the Seven Collapse Sages in a row!

The last person who destroyed three of the Seven Collapse Sages was the Hero of the South, an opponent that Shurahat had to gather so many high-level demons to successfully seal.

Facing such an opponent, are they really not worried?

That is, of course, impossible.

Therefore, the demons only paused for a while before rushing towards Yakumo again. Yakumo had no mercy on these demons. While releasing the magic cannon, he raised his hand and a meteor fell from the sky and hit the demon camp behind him.

Then, Yakumo took out a set of summoning stones from his backpack and threw them at his feet. As the summoning stones were consumed one by one, a cute red dragon, an ice-blue golem, and a golem covered in magma appeared in front of Yakumo.

The red dragon is the fourth job skill of the priest, strengthening the holy dragon. The blue one is the stone ice spirit beast summoned by the fire poison mage, and the magma style is the summoned beast of the ice thunder mage, the fire breaking beast.

(In early versions, the attributes of the mage's summoned beasts were opposite to their own, in order to make up for the attribute defects.)

This is not the end. As another summoning stone is consumed, a shadow that looks exactly like Yakumo appears behind him, including the wand in his hand. The shadow makes the same movements as Yakumo and releases the same attack.

This is the skill of the Flying Man class, Shadow Clone. Yakumo bought this skill from the krypton gold system just to deal with this kind of situation. Shadow Clone can copy the attack of the original body, although it can't reach 100% of the power.

But Yakumo's magic power intensification just made up for this part, making the damage of the shadow clone the same as when he didn't activate the magic power intensification state. This time, Yakumo also used all his strength, and all the power he had was released at this moment.

Originally, human scouts could not come so close to the Demon King's Castle, but thanks to the actions of Sinmel's team, the scope of scout activities has been greatly expanded.

Just like now, when the demons were besieging Yakumo, there were already scouts who could use various tools to observe from a distance. Seeing Yakumo alone, all the scouts were a little bit unbelievable.

According to the records afterwards, Yakumo was alone at the gate of the Demon King's Castle to stop the demon army. The demon army of thousands of people was stopped by Yakumo alone at the gate and could not move. It is unknown how many demons were destroyed by Yakumo.

Everyone thinks that Celia is the most powerful magician in the world, but no one has ever seen Celia in action. After the Demon King was successfully defeated, some people have begun to compare the strength of Yakumo and Celia.

"Huh..." Yakumo took a deep breath. Although his magic power was not consumed, the long battle made him a little tired. Fortunately, his mental strength was already very strong, and he could recover after a little rest.

"Xin Meier and the others have been in there for a long time." He could see the health of his team members in the team column. Xin Meier and Aize's health fluctuated significantly, after all, they were the ones who took the most damage.

With the shield of Haita, the two people's lives were not in danger. It was as if these two people had a breathing method to recover blood. As long as they were not fatally injured, the fluctuation of blood bars was normal.

Yakumo calculated the time, it was about half an hour. He had been fighting the demon army here for half an hour. Even though he could check the status of his teammates from their status bar, he was still a little worried.

"But we still can't let these people in. Now there are only high-level demons and great demons left. I said, it's impossible that there won't be any great demons left after one level higher than the demon clan. These demons will be difficult to deal with."

Yakumo removed the fixed defensive magic in front of him, and then it was a firepower showdown.

"There are still warriors... But, you've been prepared for a long time, right?" Yakumo's magic power rose again: "You have more people, as a sign of humility, is it okay for me to attack first?"

"The magic of the annihilation thunder!" The sky changed. It was not that Yakumo wanted to use the sky to perform magic, but that Yakumo's magic was too powerful, causing the change in the sky.

A large amount of thunder flooded the open space in front of him. Yakumo increased his output again. The moment of victory had arrived.

Chapter 169: The Crusade is Completed

Thunder and lightning are always the natural phenomena that humans fear the most. Especially in ancient times, people who can control thunder and lightning are often deified, making everything about this person mysterious.

"Defense! Defense!" A high-level demon shouted loudly, and then was drowned by thunder. Magic never chooses its opponents when attacking people, let alone such violent thunder?

High-energy thunder raged in the open space, and the violent energy even steamed the ground, emitting a large amount of heat. The magic was maintained all the time, and Yakumo did not relax the output of magic.

Occasionally, the demons would counterattack, but they were also blocked by Yakumo's defensive magic. Finally, some demons could not hold on any longer. No matter how powerful the Demon King was, no matter how much he was the hope of the demons, he could not give them a second life.

At this point, the only ones who can continue to attack Yakumo are the Demon King's diehards. The other demons will naturally prioritize their own lives. Now that the man in front of them is obviously invincible, saving their lives is the most important thing.

As a result, some demons began to flee from the battlefield. With the first one, there would naturally be a second one. Even if the high-level demons and the great demons wanted to catch these fleeing guys back, they were already too busy to do so.

The double experience card plus the holy prayer, this experience bonus made Yakumo's experience value continue to rise like riding a train. The experience provided by the intermediate demons is still considerable, not to mention that there are still many high-level demons and a small number of big demons.

The experience of the Great Demon Tribe can be counted as the boss's experience.

If you want to know what is the fastest way to level up after level 150 in a private server, it must be to find someone to lead Zakun, one hand at a time.

Although there is no Zakun in Fulilian's world, the experience gained from the Great Demon is equivalent to that of a boss, so the level increase brought about by it is quite rapid. Soon, Yakumo's level is approaching level 200.

However, there were only a few demons left. When Yakumo stopped casting magic, there were only two or three kittens left. Luckily, they were not killed by lightning. Finally, Yakumo used the magic cannon to kill the demons, and their level had reached 199.

Scratching his head in annoyance, Yakumo turned around and prepared to go into the Demon King's Castle. But at this time, his experience increased again and successfully broke through the level of 200. There was no doubt that Xin Meier and others had successfully defeated the Demon King.

"It turns out that here I can also enjoy the experience of my teammates killing monsters, although it's not a lot." Yakumo laughed dryly. But with two experience bonuses, it still makes up for the last bit of experience.

Yakumo didn't stop and continued to walk towards the Demon King's castle. When he arrived at the Demon King's original location, he saw Haita who was crying loudly while holding Xinmeier, Aize who was bowing his head in silence, and Fulilian who was at a loss and looked frustrated.

What kind of performance art are these people performing?

Yakumo looked at the team's status and saw that Xinmeier was almost at full health. Are these people performing like this for him to see?

"You guys...?" Yakumo tilted his head. The emotions expressed by these people didn't seem fake, did they?

“Yakumo!” Haita rushed over as if he had seen a savior: “Yakumo! Xinmeier helped Fulilian block the attack of the Demon King. He! He! Was hit head-on by the Demon King’s magic!”

"My shield, no, the shield I cast on Xinmeier, couldn't resist the devil's magic at all! Xinmeier, Xinmeier! What should I do, what should I do, is there any way?!" Haita was so panicked that he was incoherent.

"..." Yakumo was completely speechless. He walked to Xin Meier, pinched Xin Meier's nose, and said in a sinister tone: "If you don't get up, I will suffocate you to death!"

"Hahaha, no no no no, I'll get up right away." Xin Meier smiled awkwardly and quickly got up from the ground. Looking at the dumbfounded people, Xin Meier took out an empty bottle from his arms: "Didn't Yakumo give us medicine before..."

"The invincibility potion can grant you ten seconds of invincibility, making you immune to any attack, unless it directly reduces your lifespan." Yakumo complained, "I gave each of you a bottle."

"Ah... yeah!" Haita covered his face, he just remembered this. Just now he saw Xinmeier being hit by the demon king, and he was so anxious that he forgot about it.

"You guys, you're probably too concerned." Yakumo checked the situation of the team members again, and only heaved a sigh of relief after making sure that they were not cursed or under any other magic.

"Congratulations, you have successfully defeated the Demon King and become the heroes who saved the world." Yakumo applauded.

"What are you talking about? It should be the five of us who successfully defeated the Demon King!" Xin Meier grabbed Yakumo and said, "Don't forget your contribution. Without you, we wouldn't have such a big advantage!"

"You can't exclude yourself!" Xin Meier held Yakumo's neck tightly: "You are the one who has made the greatest contribution!"

Yakumo certainly would not ignore his own contribution, but it was indeed Sinmeier and his group who conquered the Demon King. However, perhaps because he was also involved, he still received the medal of achievement for conquering the Demon King.

Not only that, he also received a Demon Nemesis achievement medal. The former is all attributes +150, and also comes with HP and MP limit increase; the latter is all attributes 50, double attack +100, and the damage to the concept of "Demon" is increased by 100%.

Each has its pros and cons. Currently, Yakumo prefers the medal for the brave hero who defeats the devil.

"Soon, the news that the Demon King has been successfully defeated will spread across the continent. It's almost time for us to go back and hand in the mission." Yakumo sighed, "It's been more than eight years. Who would have thought that this was actually just a commission in the beginning?"

"That's a request to all humans." Haita breathed a sigh of relief: "I'll have to have a good drink when I get back."

"Sure enough, you can't forget this, you wine-drinking monk." Fulilian complained from the side.

"Finally, let's see if the Demon King has any treasures. This time, let's pack them all up and take them away." Yakumo rubbed his hands together and soon turned the Demon King's castle upside down.

Unexpectedly, there weren't many valuables in the Demon King's Castle, only a small amount of gold. Perhaps it was because the concepts of the demons were so different from those of humans, and they didn't need gold and silver to circulate.

After leaving the Demon King's Castle, the group's assets did not increase much.

"Let's go back directly through the space-time gate, and then we can hire a carriage and go all the way back to the capital where we started." Yakumo stretched. So far, the main quest of the stage of Fulilian World has been completed.

Unfortunately, the crowd, still shocked by the changes in the landscape outside, did not answer him at all.

Chapter 200: Changes at Level

"We can already see the capital." Xin Meier sat in the front of the carriage. Although it was a carriage, it didn't even have a decent compartment. It was more like a horse-drawn truck than a carriage.

Yakumo didn't complain about why he and others were already heroes who defeated the demon king.

Why do you have to take this kind of carriage back? The reason is that the major roads have not been opened yet, and the noble carriages cannot directly pass to the capital.

"Yeah, it took us more than eight years to get to the Demon King's Castle, but it only took us three months to get back." Yakumo also sighed: "It can be said that we had a smooth journey."

"Because when he came back, Xin Meier didn't take commissions everywhere." Fulilian complained.

"Haha, when I came back, I saw people celebrating everywhere, and I didn't want to disturb them, so I had to leave quietly." Xin Meir answered with a big laugh.

"But... yes, after I go back, I should also consider work." Haita stroked the holy book in his hand: "I will probably choose to go to the church to serve as a priest or something like that?"

"Work?" Fulilian was curious.

"Yes, although I successfully defeated the Demon King, I still have a long way to go in life. Should I also consider work in advance?" Xin Meir touched his chin.

"Let's put work aside for now. Do you remember what I said before? After successfully defeating the Demon King, I have something else to tell you, about some secrets of mine." Yakumo said to everyone.

They got off the carriage and thanked the driver. They entered the capital to receive the king's reward, and the whole city held a grand celebration. After eating and drinking, the few people, each holding a glass of wine, walked to an empty corner.

"Perhaps everyone has more or less noticed some differences in me, such as my strange form of existence." Yakumo pointed at himself.

"Is it strange? Our team includes dwarves who are less than half our height, as well as elves that can be eaten by treasure chest monsters." Xin Meir pointed to the other two members of the team.

"Haha, it's a little strange though. It's okay, I have nothing to be afraid of, Xin Meier. In fact, my way of existence is a little different from yours. I may even be able to achieve immortality."

This was not just Yakumo's nonsense. After successfully defeating the Demon King, the main quest of the current stage of the Fulilian World was completed. When it was completed, a dialog box popped up on his system.

[Do you want to bind the game system: MapleStory (private server)? Currently there are 0/2 remaining binding slots]

He had not forgotten that his game system was extracted, and he had been wondering if he could extract other game systems. Now the golden finger clearly told him that it was possible.

The system in his hand is very useful, so Yakumo does not intend to give it up. If it is not bound, according to the cheat code, the game system can only be used in the world where it is drawn.

Only those that are bound can be used in any world. At the same time, the power he gained through his own practice is not affected by this system. Now Yakumo has bound the MapleStory private server system, and he can use it across worlds without restrictions.

The reason why it was possible before, according to the system, was because of the benefits given during the trial period.

How to add the binding field will be decided later.

At the same time, level 200 is not the upper limit, and Yakumo's level can be further improved. When he reached level 200, in addition to receiving another set of equipment, most of the functions of the private server were unlocked, the most important of which was the master-apprentice function.

Yakumo first explained the discussion group and pulled all the team members into the discussion group to facilitate everyone to continue communicating about all sorts of things in the future, and then he talked about the master-disciple function.

There are also limited slots for apprentices, and there are exactly three at the moment. Once the master-apprentice certification is completed, the corresponding MapleStory profession can be assigned. In other words, some of Yakumo's properties can be assigned to the apprentice.

However, the apprentice can only obtain one profession, unlike Yakumo who can obtain all the mage professions by himself. For example, if Xinmeier wants to go the warrior system, he can only choose one of the three professions: hero, black knight, and paladin, but not all of them.

"So that's how it is..." Xin Meier sighed: "Indeed, if we are not partners in life and death, it is better to keep such things secret."

"I have professions that are very suitable for everyone, including the hero Xinmeier, the black knight Aize, and the bishop Haita. Of course, whether you choose to sign a master-disciple contract with me depends on your personal wishes."

"Well... there will be rewards after you become an apprentice. Also, if you gain some of my characteristics, maybe... if the hangover becomes an abnormal state, it can be removed by purification?" Yakumo speculated.

"That means you can drink without limit." Yakumo spread his hands.

The last point made Haita very excited.

"Well, it's still early, and everyone still has time to think carefully. I heard that in a little over a year, there will be a meteor shower that only occurs once every fifty years. Why don't you think about it carefully, and then we can meet again and decide whether to accept it, how about that?"

"I don't care." Furlian was actually quite curious about the conditions mentioned by Yakumo, but she had a long life and there was still a lot of time in the future, so there was no rush.

"However, I know a great spot to watch the meteor shower. If that's the deal, I'll take you there to watch it that day." Fulilian made the invitation.

“Okay, now we are all in the discussion group, so it’s very convenient to notify you if anything happens.” Yakumo said and sent a message in the discussion group.

"This thing is really convenient." Xin Meir also sent a message in the discussion group.

"In addition to chatting, it also has the ability to teleport items. When Frillian is eaten by a treasure chest monster one day, maybe she can be teleported back together." Yakumo joked.

"Haha... Yakumo always brings us miracles." Xin Meier laughed for a while before stopping: "This journey with you is really great. But maybe our journey will not end here."

"Flillian, there is something we need to make clear to you. It is up to you to decide whether to get involved." Xin Meir said as he recounted the story about the hundred-year demon curse.

"After watching the meteor shower, I might continue to look for the truth of this matter. Fulilian, would you like to come with us?" Xin Meir had actually thought about it just now.

If he didn't find a way, by the time he found the truth, he would be dying or already dead. Although he was willing to believe in future generations, it was not his belief to do nothing after knowing such news.
