There were still 36 hours left before the Martial King Temple would be guarded, 24. hours had already passed.
He would need to prepare to replenish his vitality soon.
Zhu Chen said, “There are items to replenish vitality, and even spirit medicines that can restore strength and mana, but they are all very expensive.”
“As long as there are!” Su Nan’s eyes lit up.
If some of the vitality replenishing treasures could be exchanged with his Demon-slaying Points and bought with essence and blood, he might not have to worry about replenishing his vitality.
He wasn’t in a hurry to exchange.
The task wouldn’t start until tomorrow night, and before that, he could still hunt down a batch of demons.
After exchanging the demon corpses for essence and blood, Su Nan looked at the time and logged out of the game.
It was nearly one in the morning in reality, and it was time for him to sleep.
A peaceful night passed.
The next day, Su Nan slept until eight o’clock before he got up.
After washing up and having a quick breakfast, he took a taxi to the Taishan Tourist Area.
Since he was here under the guise of tourism, he had to look the part.
About ten minutes later, he arrived at the foot of Taishan.
Taishan was majestic and towering, with the ladder leading from the foot to the peak spanning nine kilometers.
For ordinary people, climbing such a mountain would pose quite a challenge, testing their stamina.
But for Su Nan, such difficulty was child’s play.
However, in order not to draw attention, he didn’t climb too quickly.
Even so, it only took him two hours to reach the summit.
“Young man, you wouldn’t happen to be a player from the Demon World, would you?”
A middle-aged man in his forties panted as he looked at Su Nan, his eyes filled with astonishment.
He had met Su Nan at a spot just a few hundred meters from the summit.
At first, he just noticed that Su Nan was faster than the average person and wanted to keep up with him to the top.
As a result, he was soon left far behind by Su Nan.
If it weren’t for the fact that they were already quite close to the summit, he would have been left in the dust.
What astonished him the most was that Su Nan still looked relaxed after reaching the top, unlike him who was exhausted. This made him suspect that Su Nan was a player.
Su Nan smiled and shook his head, “No, I used to be a soldier, and I still exercise regularly.”
“So that’s it.” The man looked enlightened and stopped suspecting.
“I heard that yesterday, a top player who ranked in the top 100 in the game came to climb the mountain and only took 15 minutes to reach the top! That speed is terrifying!”
The man seemed to remember something, his eyes filled with envy and anticipation.
“Don’t worry, there will be more spots available in the next public beta, and we might be able to join in,” Su Nan said with a smile.
“I hope so…”
At two in the afternoon,
Su Nan returned to his lodging, took a hot bath, and immediately logged into the game.
The night was hazy.
Tianyun City was deathly silent.
Walking on the empty streets, watching the information from his foreknowledge, Su Nan smiled.
[You walk alone on the empty streets, looking for targets to hunt.]
[Unknown to you, when you pass the first intersection, you have already been spotted by two demons hiding at the end of the road.]
[They are two peak Spirit-level demons, one specializing in Speed and the other in the Power of Divine Soul. Under the command of an Xuan-level demon, they are preparing to attack you.]
[A minute later, as you are about to reach the end of the road, the hidden demons can no longer contain themselves and lead more than a dozen Mortal-level demons to surround you.]
[You show no mercy, and in a moment, most of the demons are killed by you, while the two Spirit-level demons are severely wounded.]
[Seeing the situation turn bad, the two Spirit-level demons want to escape, but you don’t let them go. You kill one of them.]
[You know that if you kill both demons at the same time, it will likely attract the Xuan-level demon. You don’t immediately kill the other demon, but quickly take it away.]
[Two minutes later, you arrive at another street. Your guess is correct – the death of a single Spirit-level demon didn’t attract the Xuan-level demon.]
[Three minutes later, you’re still not in danger, and only then do you kill the second demon.]
“I don’t come looking for you, but you come straight to me instead.”
Even without seeing the demons, Su Nan could guess the identity of the two demons.
Old Goat had told him yesterday that the Xuan-level demon named Gou Lian that worked under the Green Wolf Demon King sent two demons called One-Eye and Double-Ears to kill him, so it must be them.
Just as he thought,
At the end of the road several hundred meters away from him, two demons were hiding in the dark, spying on Su Nan.
One of these demons had only one eye, while the other had two pairs of ears.
One-Eye spoke in a low voice, “What should we do? Do we really want to attack him?”
Double-Ears was annoyed, “What else can we do if we don’t? Tonight is the deadline King Gou Lian gave us.”
“You know King Gou Lian’s methods, he always keeps his word. If we can’t kill this kid, I’m afraid we won’t be able to live either.”
One-Eye couldn’t help but say, “I heard that Lv Er King was killed by a Law Enforcer yesterday. Do you think this kid did it?”
“Don’t scare yourself, you know the gap between Spirit-level and Xuan-level.”
“Even if this kid is an early-stage Spirit-level, or even late-stage, a Peak Spirit-level would not be able to kill an Xuan-level..”
