Chapter 202 Locking the target
The cost of entering the city is also quite expensive, costing as much as one hundred coins. After paying the silver, Zhou Chen entered Qiushan City. As the largest town in Qiushan Domain, Qiushan City covers an area of 400 square kilometers.
The city was also extremely lively and full of monsters. Even the most ordinary people were transformed from monsters, but they were just low-level monsters.
As for those demons that are only of the ninth rank and cannot transform, they are raised like pets. Although some of the demons are relatively large in size, fortunately, even ordinary people have spacious enough courtyards in their homes.
Zhou Chen discovered that although this was a town of monsters, they didn't mind eating their own kind. Even if they were of the same species as themselves, they didn't mind eating them.
The only difference is that their strength is slightly higher than those guys who were eaten. You can even meet vendors selling humans on the streets, and the strength of these vendors is generally high, some even reaching the sixth rank.
The area in front of their shops is much busier than other shops. After all, for demons, humans are of great use to their cultivation.
Because they were close to the border, some of those people still retained some sanity. Looking at the hungry demons in front of them, they were so scared that they squatted in the corner of the cage and trembled.
Zhou Chen turned a blind eye to this. After all, this was not Da Xia. If he let them leave rashly, he would probably get into trouble. Now that he was powerful, as long as he wanted, those weak monsters would not be able to detect his breath at all.
Even if they realized that he was a human, as long as Zhou Chen released his aura, they would only stay away from him due to their strength and would not dare to provoke him at all.
Zhou Chen strolled around Qiushan City and then found a big restaurant to eat in. Seeing a customer coming, the waiter who was transformed into a demon immediately stepped forward to greet him with a smile.
Zhou Chen was taken all the way to the private room on the second floor, and then the waiter kindly brought him the menu.
Zhou Chen watched the waiter introduce the dishes while he was talking. There were many dishes made with white meat. The so-called white meat was the flesh and blood of humans. Zhou Chen did not show any strangeness about this. He just avoided these dishes and ordered dishes made from monsters.
The waiter wrote down what Zhou Chen wanted and left. The food was brought up soon after.
Zhou Chen was not stingy and directly threw him a piece of silver as a reward. The waiter took the silver and the smile on his face immediately became brighter.
Of course, the money was not given for free. Zhou Chen took the opportunity to inquire about the situation in Qiushan City, claiming that he had just arrived and was afraid of accidentally offending someone, so he wanted to ask about the forces in the city.
The waiter didn't care where Zhou Chen came from. Since there was a reward, he didn't hesitate to give Zhou Chen a general introduction to Qiushan City.
After the waiter's introduction, Zhou Chen smiled and threw out another piece of silver. The waiter happily took it and left the private room.
Zhou Chen started to eat. He felt that he had come to the right place in Qiushan City. The city lord of Qiushan City was a fourth-grade monster, the most powerful force in the city.
The rest were some stronger ones with slightly weaker strength, generally at the fifth rank, but there were a few who had reached the fourth rank, and there were countless sixth rank monsters.
After dinner, Zhou Chen did not continue to wander around, but stayed in the restaurant. At night, Zhou Chen appeared on the street again.
At this time, Zhou Chen had a piece of black cloth wrapped around his head to cover the pattern of the Eye of Ultimate. Then he turned on the Eye of Ultimate and wandered around the streets. His goal was to collect a set of good quality demon patterns in Qiushan City.
The city covers an area of 400 square kilometers and is the main city of Qiushan Territory. There are no shortage of fifth-grade monsters in the city. Zhou Chen did not check the houses of ordinary monsters, but directly looked for those more luxurious houses.
After walking for about half an hour, Zhou Chen set his sights on a house that covered a very large area. After locking on the target, he found an empty corner and directly entered the yard.
After entering, the Frost Phantom activated and directly avoided the many guards. At this time, Zhou Chen shuttled across the rooftops, and his movements were so light that the guards and demons in the courtyard didn't notice him at all.
Under the observation of the Extreme Eye, he quickly figured out the situation of this house. There were more than thirty seventh-grade monsters, five sixth-grade monsters, and two fifth-grade monsters. However, they were not strong and did not notice Zhou Chen's existence.
Not only that, Zhou Chen also discovered that there were many humans imprisoned in a small courtyard. They all had dull eyes. It was thought that they were used for training by these two fifth-grade monsters. Although Zhou Chen had no intention of rescuing them, he discovered a black shadow in the darkness.
The black shadow had been watching the situation in the courtyard. After careful inspection, he found that this person was actually a human. Moreover, his strength was not low, at the peak of the sixth rank, and only one step away from the fifth rank.
He seemed to have noticed Zhou Chen's presence. He looked up at Zhou Chen and his right hand had already grasped the hilt of the knife at his waist. Zhou Chen smiled and waved his hand to indicate that he had no hostility, but he still did not let down his guard.
Zhou Chen left the yard without explaining anything to him. The two fifth-grade monsters in the yard lived on the east and west sides of the village respectively. Zhou Chen first went towards the stronger one.
After arriving on his roof, he found two sixth-grade monsters standing in front of his door. Zhou Chen suddenly fell down without hesitation, and hit the two monsters directly on the heart with his two palms. Before they could react, their bodies had been frozen into ice sculptures.
The monster who was practicing in the house also sensed a hint of coldness outside the door. He suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "Who?"
There was no response. The next moment, the door was broken open and Zhou Chen rushed in. The monster reacted quickly and raised its hand to meet the attack. The huge demonic energy collided with the icy true energy.
"Are you human?"
Zhou Chen was not wearing a mask, but there was a sinister smile on his face, "Hmph, prepare to die."
This monster was not a vegetarian either. The demonic energy in its body exploded instantly. At the same time, it used the demonic energy to condense a layer of scales on its body surface. The icy true energy hit it without causing any damage, and only a wisp of cold air passed through.
Zhou Chen was surprised, "What a strong defense."
The monster was also surprised by the "such strange Qi".
At this time, Zhou Chen had seen through the Eye of Extreme that the monster guards in the house were already rushing towards this side, so he did not hold back and replaced Yue. With the long sword in his hand, his strength increased greatly. He directly used a ray of icy sword energy to force back the rushing monster. At the same time, the magical power of the Gale Sword was activated, and the giant ice sword flew out.
The demonic power of the monster flowed and the demonic energy directly condensed around his body to form the phantom of a pangolin.
This is his defensive magical power. The defense is so strong that it is difficult to break even with the fifth-grade strength. However, it is still a little lacking when facing Zhou Chen's Gale Sword.
His defense was directly broken by a sword, and at the same time his body was pierced by the sword, and the house collapsed directly.
By the time the monster guards arrived, the place was already in ruins. Zhou Chen broke through the ruins and jumped out. At the same time, their master also jumped out of the ruins. His body was almost split in half, but he was only supported by his own monster power. At the same time, his body was slowly freezing starting from the wound.
