Terrifying Fire Demon! Jiangcheng Issues a Level-Two Alert Notice!

If Lin Yi's classmates found out about this thought of his, they would probably start cursing him out on the spot!

Because even Jiang Ya...

Still needed at least half a day to reach Level 7.

And that was after she had spent every waking moment leveling over the past seven days since awakening her class.

She had already entered Howling Forest.

With the perception of a Psychic Mentalist and her large-scale destructive power, her leveling efficiency had long surpassed that of her peers.

But even so...

Her seven days of hard work and struggle still could not compare to the Molten Flame Demon taking a stroll through Howling Forest...

Jiang Ya used Psychic Shockwave to completely knock out a forest Grizzly Bear in front of her.

Then, after finishing it off with Psychic Cut, her Mana was completely depleted.

Night was falling, and the light within Howling Forest was growing even dimmer.

Leveling here alone required courage.

She sat down, drank a bottle of mana potion to slowly recover her Mana, then took out some rations and water to replenish the energy she had spent throughout the day.

Sitting on a rock in the woods, Jiang Ya gradually saw the face of the young man who had overshadowed her for three years—someone she both resented and could not forget.

What was that guy doing now?

Had he received the things she sent him?

She had already asked someone at home to keep an eye out for him in the grassland Leveling Zone, but there had still been no message...

Could he really have become completely despondent just like that?

Should she go find him herself tomorrow?

As Jiang Ya thought about it, she fell into a state of inner conflict again.

Over the past seven days, these thoughts had troubled her more times than she could count.

She stomped her foot.

Hmph, why am I thinking so much? What does How Is It with him have to do with me?!

Yet the more she thought that way, the more she could not help being curious.

Women truly were strange creatures...

But the disturbance in the forest soon made Jiang Ya vigilant once more.

"Awooo—"

It was a shrill wolf howl.

At the same time, countless other strange beast roars rang out.

The ground itself seemed to be trembling.

Jiang Ya heard the pounding of countless animal hooves and feet.

Her expression changed, and she quickly drank two more potions with long cooldowns that could rapidly restore Mana.

Then she hid behind a massive tree and carefully observed the changes in her surroundings.

Before long, Jiang Ya saw a vast stampeding herd rushing toward her from the distance.

Tigers, leopards, brown bears, elk, and countless smaller animals.

These animals, which should have been predator and prey, were strangely harmonious at that moment.

They did not attack one another. They were simply running at full speed, as though something utterly terrifying was behind them!

Jiang Ya stared in shock.

A Beast Tide!

A Beast Tide had actually appeared in Howling Forest, a mere small Leveling Zone in Jiangcheng!

What on earth had frightened these monsters so badly that they were fleeing in such panic?!

Jiang Ya was filled with shock. Then, ahead of the Beast Tide, she spotted two more figures fleeing in a panic—one old and one young!

The older one wore a gray Mage Robe.

The younger one looked like a student who had only recently awakened his class.

"Wh-what happened?"

Shock filled Jiang Ya's usually impassive pretty face. Seeing the two rapidly approach, she hurriedly asked.

But neither of them paid her any attention.

They merely continued running forward.

Only after the Beast Tide swept past...

Did Jiang Ya finally see what had been chasing them—

Boom—!

A violent wave of heat slammed into her!

Her mouth instantly went dry!

She saw a scene straight out of hell!

Blazing firelight, trees burned into black ash, and a terrifying monster five or six meters tall, its body flowing with scorching lava and its face twisted into a vicious grimace!

Run!

Run fast!

That was the last survival instinct left in Jiang Ya's mind!

It was too terrifying!

She felt that she might never forget such a scene for the rest of her life, even in her dreams.

Fortunately, as a Psychic Mentalist, Jiang Ya could use psychic power to propel herself at high speed.

After advancing her psychic power, she could even fly.

Her ability to escape was exceptionally strong.

Jiang Ya soon caught up to the Middle-aged Mage in gray robes. At that point, she noticed that the young man beside the mage was nearly crying.

"Uncle Xu, that was too terrifying! What was that thing?!"

The Middle-aged Mage in gray robes also looked panicked.

"I... I don't know either!"

"How could such a terrifying BOSS spawn in this Level 10 Leveling Zone?!"

"Something must have gone wrong here!"

This Middle-aged Mage was named Xu Guangliang.

He was the second-in-command of a small mage family in Jiangcheng.

Today, he had merely brought his eldest nephew here to level.

It should have been an easy and pleasant trip.

Who would have thought they would encounter such a terrifying Fire Demon monster?!

As a Class User who also controlled flames in battle, Xu Guangliang felt that the Flame Burst he had once been so proud of...

Could at most be considered a tiny spark before that Fire Demon monster...

The old man, the young man, and Jiang Ya, who was fleeing for her life, would never have imagined...

That the terrifying Fire Demon which had given them such a tremendous shock and Sense of Oppression...

Was actually a servant Lin Yi had casually summoned!

And that Fire Demon's target was not them at all.

It was the fleeing beast herd.

They had merely happened to step onto the path of the Beast Tide, then, like an avalanche, been swept into it. That was all...

Jiang Ya gritted her teeth.

It seemed she would not get any useful information from that Middle-aged Mage.

She immediately pushed her psychic power to its limit, and her speed surged once more.

She successfully escaped the encirclement of the beast herd, then headed without stopping toward the edge of Howling Forest.

But at that moment, regional alarm notifications suddenly rang throughout all of Howling Forest!

[Alert! Alert!]

[Jiangcheng Base City Regional Alert!]

[A few minutes ago, Jiangcheng Monster Disaster Warning Center detected two small-scale Beast Tides moving southeast and southwest from the central region of Howling Forest.]

[At the same time, terrifying monsters of unknown level and unknown strength have appeared behind the Beast Tides!]

[All Class Users within the Howling Forest area or approaching Howling Forest, please take shelter immediately!]

[Repeat! Repeat!]

[This alert is Level-Two Alert! All relevant Class Users, take shelter immediately!]

Jiang Ya's face turned pale.

A Level-Two Alert!

She had only ever seen this alert level in books!

It meant a terrifying monster disaster capable of threatening all of Jiangcheng was about to occur, and the scale of destruction could very likely reach half the city!

Every Class User who received this warning was stunned.

At that moment, on Qingfeng Grassland.

Jiangcheng City Defense had mobilized a large number of Class User troops, while the Professional Alliance's support Class Users were all standing ready.

They stared tensely in the direction of Howling Forest.

Based on the surveillance footage sent back from the front...

The two Beast Tides were not much of a problem.

The greatest problem was the two incomparably ferocious Giant Molten Flame Demons!
