"These monsters actually know how to run away?"
Seeing the monsters fleeing, Demon God Ben frowned.
In truth, with Ben's speed, catching up to these monsters wouldn't be difficult at all. But…
The monsters were scattering in all directions! Even if Ben chased, he could only follow in one direction and wouldn't be able to kill many.
At that moment, Ben tossed aside the hammer in his hand and threw a punch at a group of fleeing monsters.
Fist Wind Impact!
"Pa!"
The air exploded. The powerful fist wind, like countless blades, gathered together, forming a torrent of destruction as it charged toward the monsters.
"Puff, puff, puff…"
Five or six monsters in front were instantly shredded into pieces!
Leo watched with a palpitating heart.
Ben frowned again and sighed, "My strength is still too weak."
He was speaking from the heart. If he were as strong as Garp, he could jump into the air and with a single "Fist Bone Impact" from the sky, wipe out all the fleeing monsters and even destroy the ancient city.
However, when Leo heard these words, she couldn't help but be speechless. Ben had only been a Transcendent for two months and already had such terrifying strength, yet he wasn't satisfied?
If Ben used this move on her, she would probably die instantly. After all, she couldn't elementalize into flame yet. With her body, she definitely couldn't withstand such an attack.
At that moment, the monsters had already disappeared without a trace.
Ben didn't continue chasing after them, turning to Leo. "How many monsters did I kill just now, approximately?"
"1372."
Leo answered without hesitation, her sharp memory at work.
Ben was stunned. He admired Leo's memory and attention to detail.
Then, he frowned again and said, "Only a little over thirteen hundred? Is that enough for a perfect mission rating?"
"The total mission progress for both of us should be 1401 monsters, and I killed 29 just now…" Leo added, a slight flush on her face, embarrassed.
After all, the number of monsters she killed was nothing compared to Ben's. Her kills were just scraps in comparison…
Originally, she had thought that after entering the Spirit Realm, she would be the one leading Ben to survive. But the reality was that Ben was carrying her forward!
"Oh?" Ben immediately encouraged her, "Very good!"
"If we calculate it this way, then our mission progress is at least a cut above the rest, and we should be able to get a perfect mission rating, right?"
Leo didn't respond because she didn't know either whether their monster kill count could secure a perfect mission rating.
"If only these monsters were fearless and didn't care about death! If I could kill them all, it would definitely be enough for a perfect mission rating." Ben sighed.
Leo thought for a moment and said, "These monsters have a certain level of intelligence, and it's normal for them to be scared out of their wits and choose to run away."
…
At the same time, outside the mansion.
Seeing the monsters retreating like a tide, all fleeing, the figures hiding in the shadows were greatly shocked.
"What's going on? Those monsters, they seem a little scared?"
"You're seeing things, how could these terrifying monsters possibly have the emotion of fear?"
"Then why are these monsters fleeing the mansion?"
"Maybe it's because they've been attacking for so long without success, and don't want to make pointless sacrifices, so they're choosing to leave!"
"Then what do we do now?"
"First, avoid these monsters…"
Similar conversations rang out in various dark corners.
Soon, many figures emerged from the surrounding darkness, all hiding in the houses.
"That white-skinned pig… seems to be Robert!" Tu Sang said.
A Japanese person beside him echoed, "In the left direction, there are at least three teams hiding!"
Inoue, hearing this, only frowned, not surprised.
He had long expected that his peers would join in the fun.
"Captain, what do we do?" a teammate asked.
Inoue made the same choice as the others, which was also the most correct option: "Let's go into the house and hide first, and avoid these monsters before we talk."
Everyone quickly descended from the roof and hid in the house.
"Dong, dong, dong…"
Not long after, they heard countless vibrations coming from afar, rapidly approaching.
Inoue and the others immediately understood that it was the sound of the monster army's footsteps. They didn't dare make a sound.
The few of them were scared, afraid of being discovered by a passing monster.
However, their worries were entirely unnecessary.
At this moment, the monsters had no intention of checking for prey nearby. They only wanted to escape the Great Demon King!
They could endure hunger, but staying behind would cost them their lives.
In a few breaths, the monster army quickly left, merging into the darkness further away.
Sensing that the monsters had already gone far, these newcomers dared to peek out and check the situation.
…
Inside the mansion.
"Those monsters have already gone far away, Ben. What do we do next?" Leo asked, her pretty eyebrows slightly furrowed.
The stench of the monster corpses was overwhelming, making the atmosphere unbearable.
Ben grimaced. "Let's go too! It's too smelly here. Let's find a cleaner place first."
Leo nodded in agreement. She was a relatively clean person, and such an environment made her uncomfortable.
"Haitang, wait a moment. I need to disguise this place a bit and look around for clothes in the surrounding rooms."
As Ben spoke, he started to move the monster corpses to the side of the martial arts field. Leo helped by setting them on fire.
Afterward, Ben searched through the rooms and actually found some clothes. They were ancient costumes, but for now, he could only make do.
He took off his blood-stained clothes and put on a set of cleaner ancient robes.
When Ben appeared in front of Leo again, he looked like a handsome scholar.
"Haitang, do I look like an ancient scholar?" Ben asked with a smile.
Leo reminded him, "Ben, you can't bring things into this Spirit Realm, and similarly, you can't take things out. The clothes you're wearing might automatically come off when the mission time is over and you're teleported back…"
Ben was stunned and slapped his forehead. "I almost forgot."
However, he wasn't worried. He had only taken off his top, not his pants or underwear. Even if he were teleported back naked, it would only be his upper body, and for a man, that wasn't a big deal.
"Let's just leave it like this for now! Leo, let's go."
The two of them walked out of the mansion, and immediately felt many eyes watching them in the darkness.
"Ben, there are many people around," Leo whispered, a hint of unease in her voice.
Ben sneered slightly. "Don't worry about them. Let's just go our way."
These newcomers probably didn't have any mission progress, and Ben had no interest in them at all.
