The Healer More Powerful Than A Warrior - Chapter 444 - 444: Shenzhen's Crisis

As time passed, despite Lin Ye and the Demon Hunting Army’s combined efforts to hunt ‘Keys’, to the point of preferring to kill mistakenly rather than let go, there were still quite a few that slipped through the net.

Clearly, this time the Demon Gods were investing heavily in their actions.

The number of Demons deployed exceeded the efficiency of Lin Ye and the Demon Hunting Army’s killing capacity. In such circumstances, inevitably some Demons would manage to escape pursuit.

And this was something unavoidable, perhaps even expected.

Even Lin Ye never imagined he could kill all the Demons, which was simply impossible.

But as long as those who slipped through the net were controlled within an acceptable range, it was enough.

At this moment, Lin Ye was floating in mid-air, nearly half an hour had passed since he left the ‘Plague Apocalypse’.

In this half hour, he had killed countless Demons, and thus the places he visited remained eerily quiet.

Clearly, none of the Anomalous Spatial Rifts here had been opened with a ‘Key’.

Because the ‘Keys’ responsible for opening these rifts had all been killed by Lin Ye, they lost the possibility of completing their task.

Those various scaled Demon bases lurking in the area for unknown years were thus all wiped out by Lin Ye in one fell swoop.

Furthermore, after Lin Ye combined his space and magnetic powers to instantly kill a Demon Monarch, no one dared to try stopping him again.

The Demon Gods clearly hadn’t realized that the person named ‘Sikong Ming’ was actually Lin Ye.

But at this moment, ‘Sikong Ming’s’ displayed strength had far exceeded their imagination.

Especially after instantly killing a Demon Monarch, this method shocked many Demon Gods into silence…

Because most Demon Gods couldn’t easily and efficiently kill a Demon Monarch like this, whereas ‘Sikong Ming’ could.

This signified that ‘Sikong Ming’s’ true combat power might have far surpassed the scope of a Demon Monarch, beyond the comparison of typical Demon Gods.

The Demon Gods were not entirely foolish; realizing this fact, they naturally wouldn’t send anyone to stop Lin Ye anymore.

Anyway, sending them would just be throwing lives away for no reason.

Instead, they chose to concentrate power and break through from other directions, after all, no matter how strong ‘Sikong Ming’ is, it is impossible to completely clean out all the demon lairs.

With such a strategy, quite a few ‘Keys’ had successfully completed their mission, triggering an alternate space upheaval.

At this moment, Shenzhen’s surroundings were already starting to stir.

All sorts of Demons were surging madly, rushing towards Shenzhen, while the Alliance side obviously had already prepared well, with their Alliance Army deployed across various battlefields.

Thanks to the efforts of the Demon Hunting Army and ‘Sikong Ming’, the scale of the upheaval hadn’t reached the level the Demon Gods initially envisioned to sweep through Shenzhen four or five times.

But even so, in the face of increasing numbers of Demons, the pressure on the Alliance Army continued to grow.

Ultimately, many keys reached their positions and completed their final value as Demons.

Although in terms of scale, it was far from the Demon Gods’ expectations, it was already considered the most severe Demon upheaval in a century.

The news quickly spread throughout Shenzhen, directly causing considerable panic.

“I just escaped from outside, it was terrifying, demons everywhere, too many to count!”

“Our squad only had me escaping luckily…”

“This Demon upheaval might be Shenzhen’s most severe crisis in history.”

“Someone must have angered the Demon Gods.”

“We are innocent…”

“Why panic? We still have the City Defense Army, everyone cheer up!”

“No, I saw with my own eyes a three-story-high powerful demon swallowing over ten warriors from the City Defense Army in one bite… it’s utterly despairing.”

“This time the Demon Gods mean business.”

Shenzhen fell into a state of complete panic, despite many urging everyone to stay calm and avoid panic, under the influence of fear, few managed to maintain composure.

After all, this was a crisis never encountered before.

It was always believed that frontline settlements were the safest places in the Human World.

But now, under the revealed fangs of the Demon Gods, people realized that human strength in the face of Abyssal Demons was too weak.

The once-proud frontline settlements were precariously threatened in the face of the Demon Gods’ true power.

In reality, this was indeed the case.

If Lin Ye and the Demon Hunting Army hadn’t foreseen the Demon Gods’ intentions, these people likely wouldn’t even have had the chance to complain here.

Some even rushed immediately to the city teleportation array center, attempting to leave as quickly as possible.

But clearly, this was impossible because all teleportation arrays in Shenzhen were actively transferring soldiers from other locations.

In short, teleportation arrays were mostly commandeered by the military for troop deployment.

The civilians unable to escape could only leave in despair, but some refused to give up and began storming various teleportation array centers.

Amid this chaos, the sky suddenly reverberated with an extremely terrifying shriek.

The piercing scream shattered the glass of buildings within sound wave range, causing numerous civilians to perish instantly.

Survivors looked up to see a terrifyingly huge bird-shaped demon had somehow breached the City Defense Army’s line, entering the city.

And just this one demon alone had easily claimed the lives of over a hundred innocent residents.

This further intensified the fear among those witnessing the massacre.

Before, they were too well protected by the Alliance and Professionals, even if completely defenseless, they could live safely amidst such demon threats.

This time, they truly experienced the horror of demons.

At this moment, an authoritative chanting voice emanated from the sky, where radiant gold light spontaneously appeared, instantly transforming into chains binding the demon in the sky.

“The Church Court’s mighty ones are intervening!”

Someone shouted among the crowd!
