Hero Hua Xin's Adventure 3

In front are tanky warriors who absorb damage; in the middle are mages and healers responsible for applying group buffs and healing effects; behind them are offensive mages; and at the very back are a tank and an assassin to prevent any unexpected situations from causing the healing and buff effects in the team to disappear.

This is the standard formation for a squad during marching and combat.

If, during a battle, two girls were to go down the stairs and block the exit by holding hands, it's possible that more than just those two girls would be blown away.

Everyone will be blown away by the Demon King??

This perfect battle formation is the final formulaic fighting method that countless sages spent their lives exploring.

From goblin monsters to dragons and demon kings, as long as nothing unexpected happens, there shouldn't be any major problems. With healers and mages around, a boss's health bar can be fully restored in a few seconds, and even if a single person only has one drop of health left, they can still whittle down the boss to death with basic attacks.

Therefore, everyone has great confidence in this battle.

As the saying goes, to defeat a team, the first characters you need to kill are the mage and the healer. Once you take down the characters who can buff and heal, you can take down the whole team one by one. No matter how tanky a team is, if they don't have healing abilities, aren't they just lambs to the slaughter? Once their Magic Power is depleted, no matter how thick their shield is, they'll be finished in one hit.

Although the team of Brave Hua Xin, which was temporarily cobbled together from various races, had only been established for a little over a week, they were already adept at the duties of each position in the subjugation squad, thanks to their years of experience in adventures. There would be no scenario where a bad teammate ruined the entire squad, resulting in the deaths of several members, or the old-fashioned Japanese-style quitting plot.

You are all among the most powerful people on the entire Hachimid Continent, each a prodigy of your clan and a fearless adventurer honed through countless battles! Even if facing the most powerful demon king on the entire continent, no... even a god, these prodigies might not be unable to fight him!

This is the strength of their small squad... called the "Demon Slaying Squad"!

Moreover, even if they can't win, they still have special means to save their lives.

In short, there's no way we can lose! There's no way we can lose! This demon king, who seems to have sprung from some unknown crack in the rock, is destined to suffer a terrible fate and go to hell in the Demon Realm.

However, although he is a notorious demon king...

But in reality, they didn't do anything particularly evil.

The so-called great war has been a standoff, and no battles have been fought across the border. What people resent is nothing more than the plundering of the national treasures and vast wealth of various countries.

The empty national treasury is what makes these people unable to swallow their anger.

So...

They would become demon-slaying heroes, receive countless rewards, and plunder all the treasures in the Demon King's Palace before returning to their respective kingdoms to become county magistrates. Their later lives wouldn't be smooth sailing, but they could certainly be considered local emperors.

Hua Xin, representing all the team members, shared this view.

Obviously, the more dangerous the job, the higher the reward.

Who would just randomly come and kill some demon king? Are you kidding me? (Puts one hand on hip, leans back 60 degrees, and laughs wildly.)

Legend has it that the Demon King hid all the treasures and artifacts from the Demon Realm, left behind by the previous Demon King, and from various countries and races in a mysterious place called "I'm No Longer Happy, Give Me Back That!" Whoever can find this final location where the Demon King hid all the treasures will gain enough wealth to buy the entire Hachimid Continent!

Reputation?

Hero?

Beauty?

Manor?

Get out of here, all of you!

Whoever can force the Demon King to reveal the location of the Laicai before killing him will become the master of the entire Hachimid Continent!

Who would care about unfounded honors and praises then? Who could resist the temptation to become the master of the world?

This is what the elf girl in the Demon Slaying Squad thinks, this is what the equipment master dwarf thinks, and this is what the assassin, warrior, healer, and mage all think.

In any case, defeating the Demon King is the hero's job. The hero only needs to kill the Demon King, while the others, as teammates and holders of the treasure, have many more things to consider.

However, perhaps only a few people do not hold this view.

First, there is the brave Hua Xin.

At this moment, Hua Xin, the brave warrior who was silently walking in the lead position, had already put her entire body back on that indestructible armor. The armor, which gleamed with a metallic luster under the sunlight, was clearly not worthy of being marked by ordinary swords and blades.

Even so, Hua Xin's steps were as light as a wild goose, making no sound as she walked on the grass. Her armor made no clanging or clattering noises. If she weren't in the lead position, probably no one would even notice her presence.

That's right.

This is the magical talent that Hua Xin awakened when she became a hero.

Stealth Aura.

Or rather...

Make yourself invisible, thus achieving "invisibility" in both physical and mental senses!

Even if someone is standing right in front of her, she won't notice them; she'll only see a wisp of air. With this ability, Hua Xin instantly becomes the most perfect assassin, able to kill whoever she wants without them even noticing.

This is why she was confident enough to instantly kill the so-called demon king and fulfill her destiny in this operation.

The tanks draw attention and absorb damage... Healers and mages in the middle of the team draw the Demon King's attention so that he subconsciously "kills the healer first," while the assassins and warriors naturally clear out the miscellaneous enemies around the Demon King.

And her...

Naturally, I'd use my abilities to deliver a fatal blow from behind, killing this infamous demon king so I can go home and get some fries... Okay, I'll go home and get some fries at the docks.

She no longer has the means to open the Silver Handkerchief, so she should go to the Great Magician to see if there are any spells or potions that can turn her back into a man.

She didn't want to spend the rest of her life without being able to watch her young uncle and the weekly erotic magazine secretly doing something refreshing and enjoyable in the middle of the night.

Even if you lose one point, it's still just as satisfying.

Alas, fate is so cruel.

"Speaking of which..."

"Why is the air and environment in the Demon Realm so good? Shouldn't we already be teleported to the heart of the Demon King's Palace?"

Hua Xin looked around at the birdsong and fragrant flowers with a bit of curiosity, and began to have some doubts.

"I'm also a little confused..."

Dong Miao pushed up his glasses, his gaze involuntarily drifting towards Hua Xin's chest as he answered without changing his expression.

The legendary Demon King's Palace was supposedly built with human skulls, so why can't I see anything and why is the air so fresh?

Suddenly, several powerful Magic Power appeared within her senses, causing Hua Xin's expression to change drastically. She gripped the Hero's Sword tightly, pointing it forward, and a cold voice immediately resounded throughout the entire group:

"The Demon King is here!"

Hua Xin stared coldly at the figure gradually becoming clearer before her, her mood growing even more tense and icy, a powerful Magic Power ready to erupt at any moment.

"Welcome to my kingdom, everyone! I am the Demon King you've been searching for. If you're brave enough, come and chop me down!!"

A voice that was extremely irritating and childish rang out.

A hint of confusion and doubt flashed in Hua Xin's eyes.

"Everyone, my title is... uh, my title is..."

"Demon Mu Feng??!!!"

"Wearing a black robe, as if he were cosplaying Lelouch, "Mu Feng said.
