Chapter 281 - 281 242 The Real Soldier

?Chapter 281: Chapter 242 The Real “Soldier Chapter 281: Chapter 242 The Real “Soldier “Wishing to use the poison fog in the cave to whittle down my minions, huh…”

Demilo watched as the steel monsters burrowed into the dark-green cesspit, their buzzing roars as if urging him to hurry in.

Should I go in?

It seemed to be a no-brainer—entering the tactical terrain set up by someone else was foolish, and he had no necessary reason to fight the mages, moreover, if he really wanted to fight in the poison fog, he would have to use some of his precious ‘soldiers’.

No instructions came from the Divine Lord to the Heroic Souls; in fact, unless it was a time of war, Heroic Souls were free. However, in order to accumulate enough merit to exchange for soul fragments, even during peaceful development periods, they would still patrol their territory and transport resources voluntarily, just like Demilo, who had set out this turn to transport resources from the surrounding area back to the main city.

Therefore, Demilo could overlook these arrogant mages and simply walk away; he could do as he pleased.

And so, he felt somewhat perplexed.

In the past thousand years, he had never encountered a moment that required his decision. During war, needless to say, the Divine Lord’s edicts were followed; during peaceful times, he dutifully managed the main city, weighing the possibility of victory when encountering hostile legions, deciding whether to fight or flee, and when encountering ordinary mages, he simply crushed them.

He had also encountered many mages, some of whom happened to cross the path of the march and were casually crushed to death by the Shepherd Star; others fled swiftly, and as long as they did not die under the first wave of long-range attacks from the legion, Demilo would not specifically pursue them.

This situation, however, was unprecedented.

He had encountered mages, but not only had he failed to crush them, but the mages had also inflicted considerable losses on his minions. The mages did not flee but wandered under his gaze, yet he could not easily crush them.

Although there was no evidence, Demilo believed that the clean state of the cave resource point could hardly be unrelated to this group of mages.

Interest, loss, battle, departure…various thoughts surged, but ultimately, there was no reference case, and in the end, it was up to Demilo to make the decision.

He had to follow his own wishes.
