“Print it on his face!”
Ace smirked sinisterly as he gave thest order and keep heading toward the Iron Demon City amid dark gibbon demons. All was left for him to escape now.
Before, he never thought he would get the chance to return to Iron Demon City because of the formation and Henrik. But he never thought he wouldprehend the second realm of Dual Shadow Swords Technique and discovered by Henrik afterward.
However, everything yed out well because of his quick wits and acting skills. Not only did he manage to score high-level thievery while obtaining a heavenly talisman, but he even got the chance to humiliate the ocean demon tribe with Thief Farewell Note!
‘Wait, since I’m already surrounded by thousands of demons, I should take full advantage of it until I reached the other side of the city wall. Who knows how long I have to stay underground after Henrik discovered what has happened with his storage ring and face!’ Ace coldly smiled as he kept moving between the gibbon demon army that was madly charging toward the opening in the city wall.
Although more than half of the dark gibbon army was still on hold, the army charging toward the city wall was still over a hundred thousand!
Ace was like a fish who just enter the water as two hundred soul threads shot from his ten fingertips, each finger controlling twenty soul threads. He even activated his heavenly sense because New Moon formation can’t pinpoint or discover him in this chaos.
Ace was dashing forward while hiding deep in the soldiers and no one notice him in this huge rush. Every ten seconds, he would pickpocket two hundred storage rings without anyone noticing, which made Ace more excited as he thought the chaotic war was like his stealing ground where he can cause stealing-massacre!
His eyes suddenly shed when he saw the distance between him and the Iron Demon City only remain fifty meters, and he suddenly looked toward those gibbon demons mounting on the war bears.
Especially Gianni’s group, which was not too far away from him right now, only a hundred meters to his left. Elder Kole and Dustin were at the very front, leading this charge!
Ace stopped paying attention to those small fries, he had already pickpocketed over two thousand storage rings in this short period. But he wasn’t satisfied with low-level thieveries, he wanted middle-level thieveries so he could raise his thief rank.
That’s why his focus turned toward those demons on war bears. He knew some of them might give him middle-level thieveries.
There were five hundred war bears at the very front of this charge and all of them were Qi river core cultivators, most of them were at the first level of Iron River Core.
Ace naturally targeted these weakest bunch first, right now, he was at the very front of this charging army just a few tens of meters away from war bears.
When Ace pick-pocketed the first two hundred iron river core cultivators, they finally cross the ruined city wall.
However, Ace’s heart palpitated when he was greeted by the sight ofrge cannons neatly arranged in rows five hundred meters away. He nearly forgot about them. He knew those war cannons were used for city defenses and by the size of those cannons they can easily st a peak Qi river core cultivator into meat fragments which gravely injured Iron river core cultivators, only bronze river core or higher, cultivators can dodge them.
There were a total of two hundredrge cannons and there were also five hundred smaller size cannons.
Right behind those cannons, Elian was calmly mounted on a five-meter beast that looked like a horse, but its pointed teeth were showing from its lips while its color waspletely brown, and it had a foot-long spike-like horn growing right between its dog-like ears.
The same kind of mount was also under all the Qi river core cultivators, and behind those cultivators were huge clearings. All the houses havepletely vanished from the city, and there was a vast army of the Iron Demon Tribe.
Right now, this army surrounded by the tall city walls looked like they were in a vast arena.
Decker coldly chuckled, seeing the grand line up as if he expected this, and bellowed, “Don’t tter. Those cannons won’t be able to reach you, with us old bones in front. Just charge with no fear and destroy everything in your path. We’ll be taking thisnd as our home soon, ATTACK!”
When Decker’s howl faded, the soldiers madly charge while those war bears let loose a collective roar before rushing toward those horse-like demonic beasts with their vicious eyes.
Elian sneered at this moment and shouted, “Released all the traps!”
Thereby, shining rune symbols emerged from the ground, covering the entire area between the charging army and the Iron Demon Tribe army behind cannons.
However, Dustin merely frowned, but he didn’t order anyone to stop and keep charging. He had fought many such wars in wildness his whole life, and he knew sacrifices were necessary for war.
That was also why he only brought one-fifth of his army inside the city wall, despite knowing the danger of entering a tiger’s mountain!
Ace, on the other hand, who was blended within the charging gibbon soldiers, had a veryplicated feeling, as he watched hundreds of demons get killed by traps at every step while they still charge without even batting an eye at those who fell with resolve to die.
It was his first time being right in the middle of such ughter, he only sighed silently and kept moving toward the Iron Demon Tribe as he always stepped in a safe ce without triggering any trap and easily dodge any trap triggered by a solder since those traps could only harm Qi river cultivators, and he was far more powerful than any Qi river cultivator.
After regaining his calm, he again started to pick-pocket those big shots of the Qi river core realm because he knew he had little time before the face-to-face sh and at that time they will notice many missing storage treasures.
Especially the Qi river core cultivators. This will cause a huge ruckus, and he doesn’t want to be here in the middle of it when the time came.
Ace didn’t target Golden River Core experts like Elian and Dustin because their senses were at their peak right now, and they might notice him, nor did he go after Elder Kole because of his saber intent.
Although he never came in contact with a weapon intent cultivator, a person who hadprehended the pinnacle of a weapon can’t be with just ordinary senses. He didn’t want to take such a risk.
Besides, it was just a storage ring of a single silver river core expert, which doesn’t hurt Ace, who had pickpocketed thousands of storage rings just by running.
“Let loose the cannons!” Elian coolly ordered when the army reached the one-hundred-and-fifty-meter mark.
Although those cannons burn a huge amount of grade Qi stones, Elian didn’t care since he knew it wasn’t the time to save wealth, not after he found out the enemy had a saber cultivator among their ranks!
He wanted to get rid of that old demon as quickly as possible, and he even had a n for it which he had safe for Gianni, but in his eyes, Elder Kole was far bigger of a threat than ten Gianni.
Those iron demons standing beside each cannon quickly fire them as many booming sounds filled the area.
“Block them!” Dustin roared as a three-meter-long golden halberd appeared in his hook-shaped hands.
He brandished it with brown Qi and swing it toward those meteoroids like cannonballsing toward them.
Elder Kole also hack his saber brandished with emerald Qi and block over twenty cannonballs.
However, something strange happened at this moment, when a gibbon demon of bronze river core stage shrilled and screamed in horror, “Why can’t I pull my weapon… NO!”
“Boom!”
He was caught off guard and take a direct hit from the cannonball, which punched an enormous hole in his stomach.
However, this wasn’t the end, there were many cries rang, singing in the same tune,
“Fuck, I can’t sense my…”
“Boom!”
“Where is my…”
“Boom!”
“Which bastard…”
“Boom…!”
Almost all the Qi river core gibbon demons were sted by cannonballs after caching off guard by the disappearance of their weapons or, more urately, storage rings!
Some of them still quickly react and dodged them in time, but this action let those loose cannonballs enter the army behind them, which cause huge casualties as thousands of weak gibbon demons sted into smithereens.
‘Time to run!’
Ace knew this was his cue, and he quickly used his full speed andpletely broke free from the chaotic gibbon demon army. He easily brushed past those cannons and move toward the wall.
He easily passed through those Iron river core stage iron demons sitting arrogantly on their mounts and sessfully entered the iron demon army!
But he didn’t stay to loot them this time and go straight deeper into the iron demon city toward this hideout.
Ace knew this war was about to turn into a colossal mess!
