Demon's Scheme

Just as Lin Mu was pondering what to do, a slightly illusory figure of Little Boy appeared beside him.

"Are you explorers?" the Little Boy asked, looking at them.

Lin Mu was slightly taken aback and looked at the Little Boy. He could sense that the Little Boy was similar to a Mental Bodies.

It's very likely Undead!

The third way to clear the level is to liberate the Undead.

However, it is currently unknown whether the Little Boy in front of them is friend or foe.

"That's right!" Lin Mu said.

"Then come with me. If you go straight out, those things will attack you!" the Little Boy said.

"Okay!" Lin Mu nodded.

Cui Boxuan hesitated for a moment, then followed.

The two followed the Little Boy, walking slowly along the city wall.

The Little Boy was very familiar with the city, and soon led them to a secluded house.

Inside a private residence, a tall, obese man lay on the bed, his eyes filled with a fierce expression.

When it saw the Little Boy bring the two of them back home, the anger in its eyes became even more obvious.

"Damn it, who gave you permission to bring people back!"

Lin Mu frowned slightly as he looked at the tall figure. The man in front of him was similar to the Little Boy; both were Mental Bodies.

I didn't think the man was much stronger than the Little Boy.

The Little Boy looked fearful when he saw the man.

"I was worried they would be attacked, so I brought them back!"

"What kind of situation are we in now? You still bring these people back? Do you want us to starve to death?" the man roared.

As he finished speaking, a sound seemed to come from outside the house.

A chilling aura approached.

Lin Mu drew his long sword. "If you lure that thing here, I'll kill you before it arrives!"

The man looked wary, glared at the Little Boy fiercely, but didn't say anything more.

Cui Boxuan stood to the side, a hint of surprise on his face.

He hadn't expected Lin Mu to be so decisive.

The group remained inside the house, and perhaps because they were quiet, the chilly atmosphere gradually dissipated.

Lin Mu frowned slightly. For some reason, he had a feeling that something was observing them.

He racked his brains, trying to find something amiss.

After thinking for a while, I still couldn't come up with any results.

A system notification sounded.

"Completing a review session yields 142 times the efficiency."

Lin Mu suddenly gained a clearer understanding of what had just happened.

His pupils contracted slightly as he looked at the two Undead.

"You did this on purpose!" Lin Mu said.

The two figures were slightly taken aback, their eyes fixed on Lin Mu. The man asked, "What do you mean, 'deliberately'?"

"You two are about the same strength, and the Little Boy deliberately led us here!"

"Their goal is to offer us up to the Demon! If I hadn't stopped you, you would have beaten the Little Boy, creating a disturbance, and the Demon would have naturally come looking for you!"

"At that time, the Demon will kidnap the Little Boy and use him to threaten us. If we have good intentions, we will definitely help him and fall into your trap!" Lin Mu said.

A hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the two Undead, but they quickly recovered.

"We ourselves are afraid of that thing, how could we possibly do such a thing?"

Lin Mu's face was somewhat indifferent.

The long sword in his hand, imbued with Mental Power, landed on the neck of the Undead.

"You can lie, but some things can't be hidden! If I'm not mistaken, that Demon is on the roof!"

A look of surprise crossed the man's face.

Before he could even react, Lin Mu's long sword slid rapidly through his hand.

Laugh!

The man's body was cut in half.

At that moment, a figure suddenly rushed down from above at an astonishing speed.

Lin Mu quickly dodged.

Boom!

A tremendous roar followed.

After a sandstorm, Lin Mu and Cui Boxuan stood not far away, looking at the collapsed houses.

All they could see was a bizarre creature with a black and white body, four legs, and a shape that was larger in the front and smaller in the back, somewhat resembling a large-headed ant, staring at them with a ferocious expression.

Both Lin Mu and Cui Boxuan felt a sense of pressure when they saw the Demon.

Because this Demon has Blood Qi Value of 10, combined with its special characteristics, it is very difficult to defeat it.

"Such a powerful Demon, capable of using cunning tactics, this Death Gate is just too difficult!" Cui Boxuan couldn't help but exclaim.

"If it were that easy, so many people wouldn't be eliminated every year!"

"The Martial Arts Exam is meant to weed out people who are unlucky or incompetent!" Lin Mu said.

Cui Boxuan nodded slightly; he was well aware of the Martial Arts Exam rules.

For ordinary martial artists, they cannot even pass the Gate of Life; they can only choose a specialty based on the results of tests and written exams.

Those who are lucky enough to pass the entrance exam will have the opportunity to enter undergraduate studies.

As for the Death Gate!

This is a place that tests a martial artist's mentality and ability.

Once you pass, you can get into a book.

Lin Mu took a deep breath and charged forward, long sword in hand.

Cui Boxuan's expression changed; this was Demon.

With their strength, how could they possibly be a match?

Whoosh!

The sound of something cutting through the air rang out.

Lin Mu approached the Demon and unleashed the Thunder-Slaying Three Blades.

A terrifying slash then erupted, and bolts of lightning struck the Demon.

A roar came from the Demon's mouth, and its sharp claws swept towards Lin Mu.

Its defenses are very strong; even Lin Mu's attack just now couldn't cause it any damage.

The Examiners outside were somewhat surprised to see this.

In their view, Lin Mu should be a very calm person, so why would he be so reckless as to directly attack the Demon?

"The most powerful thing about Demon is not their combat strength, but their special abilities. If Lin Mu attacks directly like this, won't he just be wasting his own energy?"

"That's right. If he can escape unscathed, that's fine, but if he's injured by Demon, the rest of the assessment won't be possible!"

"Young people are still a bit reckless!"

"..."

The group discussed amongst themselves, clearly dissatisfied with Lin Mu's performance.

Du Zian looked at Lin Mu with great interest. He was also interested in this young man, even if he was a bit reckless, he was still a good prospect.

Under their watchful eyes, Lin Mu fought the Demon for more than ten minutes.

After another attack, Lin Mu turned around and fled at an extremely fast speed.

Many people present could understand.

Even with their strength, it would still be somewhat difficult for them to fight against Demon.

Lin Mu and Cui Boxuan were in an alley.

Cui Boxuan looked puzzled. "Why were you working so hard just now?"

Lin Mu smiled slightly, "I have my own plans!"

His eyes were slightly closed, and countless memories flooded his mind. In an instant, it was as if he had fought this Demon hundreds of times and was extremely familiar with it.

As he analyzed what had happened, a glint of light flashed in Lin Mu's eyes.

Perhaps there is another way to pass the level!
