Upon hearing Victorâs call for help, Wen Yu was stunned. Though he was unsure about the situation in Las Vegas, his estimates and calculations hadnât predicted it would fall into such a crisis so soon.
If Las Vegas, with its four powerful expertsâSequence Number 4, Sequence Number 13, Sequence Number 15, and Sequence Number 82âand countless mutant beasts, couldnât withstand the first wave of the demon plague, then how could Earth ever hope to fight the Demon Tribe? Was there any hope left?
The situation was somewhat beyond Wen Yuâs expectations...
With this in mind, Wen Yu recalled Faceless, commanded Star to enlarge, then leaped onto its back and flew towards Las Vegas.
Star rushed toward Las Vegas. Halfway there, Wen Yu attempted to connect with Victor through a psychic linkâbut the connection failed. He then tried to bring Victor back into the 5th Soul Realm, but it was to no avail.
Even the power of the Soul Realm space had been completely cut off!
Afterwards, Wen Yu quickly took out his communicator. He tried calling Claus, but no one answered. He then tried Qin Tianâstill no answer. Next was Arthur, but again, no one picked up. Finally, he tried Yang Hong.
This time, a piercing CRACKLE came from the other end.
The call connected after a moment, and Wen Yu immediately asked, "Itâs Wen Yu, whatâs going on?"
There was silence on the other end for quite a while, until a weak voice finally came through.
"Itâs Wang Fucai... Yang Hong is lying unconscious next to me. We ran into some trouble..."
"I canât quite explain what happened, but both Yang Hong and I are currently in a cave near Las Vegas. Youâd better go and see whatâs going on in Las Vegas for yourself..."
"Wen Yu, itâs been a whole day... You returned too late..."
Upon hearing Wang Fucaiâs words, Wen Yu was taken aback.
"A whole day has passed?"
Though only two hours had passed from when he summoned Star and Cyclops until he woke up, Wen Yu had no recollection of how long he had been unconscious before that.
"Yes..."
After Wang Fucai finished speaking, the communicator went silent. The silence on the line continued until Wen Yu finally saw the situation at the Las Vegas Assembly Site.
"What... is this..."
The situation in Las Vegas in the distance took Wen Yu completely by surprise!
A huge, deep purple light barrier, like an upside-down bowl, enveloped the entire Las Vegas defense perimeter.
Brilliant light flowed across the deep purple barrier. Huge amounts of Demon Fiends would occasionally pour into it from the outside, but not a single creature was seen emerging from within!
This was a one-way defense barrierâallowing entry but not exit!
"Do you see it now? That thing was released by an Ancient Demon about eight hours ago, and then the whole of Las Vegas was completely engulfed by it. Yang Hong and I were preparing to go out to destroy the Demon Tribeâs troop transport machinery, so we narrowly escaped..."
"Seeing the situation in Las Vegas, Yang Hong and I aborted our mission. Instead, we retreated and tried to figure out what this purple light barrier was..."
"But we didnât expect to find high-level Demon Tribe members guarding the area around the barrier. We were severely injured before we could even charge in and are now hiding in a cave."
"Thatâs about it..."
"Mmm..."
Wen Yu pondered for a moment and immediately made up his mind.
In Wen Yuâs mind, what happened to Las Vegas didnât really matter. His organizing the defense in Las Vegas wasnât about making it his own baseâit was primarily for Victor! And Victor absolutely could not be harmedâthat was the bottom line!
With this in mind, Wen Yu said directly to Wang Fucai, "Rest well. Iâll go and take a look."
After saying that, Wen Yu hung up the communicator and commanded Star to charge madly towards Las Vegas.
Below the light barrier, vast numbers of Demon Fiends gathered in throngs, tightly surrounding it. Occasionally, some Demon Fiends, led by higher-ranking ones, would charge straight into the barrier.
And in the distant wilderness, countless Demon Fiends of all kinds continuously converged around the barrier, the encircling horde growing ever larger. One could only imagine that even if the professionists or mutant beasts inside managed to break out, they would face a massive Devil Army!
Even from afar, Wen Yu could sense the enormous energy contained within the light barrier!
A direct assault would certainly fail to break this unknown barrier!
This was Wen Yuâs judgment.
Alright... Iâll start with this!
Wen Yu quickly made his decision.
From Wen Yuâs perspective, the Devil Army below resembled a vast swarm of ants, crawling over the ground in orderly formations.
This alone showed that Demon Fiends were not brainless creatures that only knew how to slaughter.
They had organization, discipline, and a massive arsenal of strategic weapons!
In his previous life alone, Wen Yu knew of Star Devouring Demons, Composite Siege Beasts, and Magic Crystal Cannons!
So, it wasnât surprising that these Demon Bastards could produce something like this barrier!
After commanding Star to circle in the distance for a while, Wen Yu released Faceless and dripped Tang Haofeiâs blood onto it.
As Facelessâs body convulsed, it quickly transformed into Tang Haofeiâs likeness.
He then sent Cyclops down, instructing it to move freely and hunt Demon Fiends.
Subsequently, Star let out a high-pitched dragon roar and charged violently towards the horde of Demon Fiends below.
