Chapter 71 Intimidation

Seeing Zhou Chen rushing towards him, Qin Yong swung his sword and chopped the spider leg behind Zhou Chen. The Demon-Suppressing Sword was forged from special materials by the Empire and was extremely sharp, but after fighting with Zhou Chen for more than ten moves, there was not even a trace left on the spider leg.

Zhou Chen thought to himself, "This eight-armed wolf spider is really useful," while showing a grim smile on his face, "Cui Li asked me to tell you a message before he died."

When Qin Yong heard Zhou Chen's words, his face changed and he said, "What did you say Cui Li is dead?"
"Cui Li asked me to tell you that if you have the chance you must find a way to kill me."

Zhou Chen stepped on the ground and said, "I also promised him that I will bring this message to you when you die." Then cracks began to appear on the ground, and before Qin Yong could react, hot magma gushed out from the ground.

Before Qin Yong could even utter a howl, he was burned to ashes by the scorching magma. The ashes were blown away by the biting cold wind before they even hit the ground.

After solving this problem, Zhou Chen's mood immediately improved a lot. In fact, he escaped this time to lure this guy out. He originally planned to lure him into the woods and then kill him, but this guy was really courting death. Zhou Chen couldn't bear it anymore and had to send her off early.

Zhou Chen turned around and went back to the county government office. When he returned, he found that the area around the county government office and the roofs were full of humanoid monsters. At a glance, there were no less than forty of them.

Moreover, their strength had actually reached the seventh rank. The constables in the county government were no match for them. Fortunately, Zhou Chen came back at the right time. The group of monsters had apparently just arrived, and the constables in the county government had not suffered any casualties for the time being.

At this time, many constables in the county government were looking at the humanoid monsters around them with horror. Seeing this, Zhou Chen's speed increased rapidly and his magical wood method was activated. Countless vines grew on the ground in an instant.

After the vines came out, they quickly entangled all the humanoid monsters around. Even if there were monsters that escaped, they would be entangled by the attacks of countless vines.

Only a small number of monsters with a strength of seventy or above were able to break free, but they had to hide everywhere under the constant attacks from afar. Those monsters whose strength was less than seventy were unable to break free at all.

In an instant, there were only seven threatening monsters left on the scene. Eight spider legs suddenly stretched out from behind Zhou Chen and rushed towards the seven monsters.

Seeing Zhou Chen rushing towards them, they also realized that these strange vines were summoned by Zhou Chen. Then the seven monsters joined forces to kill Zhou Chen.

Although their strength is inferior to Zhou Chen's, they are numerous and can completely crush Zhou Chen with their numerical advantage.

Within a few breaths, Zhou Chen was surrounded by seven seventh-grade humanoid monsters. The eight spider legs behind Zhou Chen waved quickly to resist the monsters' attacks, but two fists are no match for four hands, and Zhou Chen was inevitably injured by the spider legs behind them.

However, with the Iron Shirt of the Limit Breaking Realm, they could only tear Zhou Chen's clothes. But this was already a humiliation for Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen shouted angrily and the Extreme Cold Realm was activated instantly. In an instant, everything around him was covered with a layer of frost.

Afterwards, Zhou Chen stepped on the ground and several vines broke out of the ground. The vines were covered with frost and turned into a light white color. With the bonus of the extreme cold domain, the power of the wood magic was also enhanced, and three monsters were restrained in an instant.

Seeing this, the other four monsters wanted to escape, but Zhou Chen would never let them get away. He summoned white vines again to grab them. Although it couldn't really restrain them, it could just block one or two.

Zhou Chen quickly increased his speed and came to the front of the monsters. He used the spider legs behind him to quickly kill them one by one. A minute later, the seven strongest humanoid monsters on the field had been slaughtered, and the remaining weak ones were not to be feared at all.

Zhou Chen just raised his right hand and clenched it into the air. Suddenly, the wailing sounds of humanoid monsters were heard in the field. They were all strangled to death by the vines.

After doing all this, Zhou Chen immediately withdrew the Extreme Cold Realm, and the summoned vines also quickly disappeared at this moment. Zhou Chen couldn't help but think, "It won't work without the support of internal force. After the battle just now, Mu Fa's magic power has been exhausted. If he wants to use it again, he has to wait until the magic pattern recovers its magic power."

But this is all temporary. Now that I have reached the seventh level of strength, I believe that I will be able to break through to the sixth level within three months. By then, these things will not be a problem at all.

At this time, a loud noise came from the direction of the prison cell of the county government. Zhou Chen knew what was going on there but didn't rush over to check. However, two minutes later, he heard a familiar voice. That voice belonged to the black shadow. "You won this time, but don't be complacent. I will be back."

Zhou Chen then walked towards the cell. When he arrived there, he found that the prison had completely collapsed and turned into ruins, and all the prisoners in the cell were trapped under the ruins.

Zhou Chen quickly sent people to rescue the buried prisoners. Although they were all prisoners, their crimes did not deserve the death penalty, so he would still save them if possible.

At this time, Zhou Chen noticed the middle-aged man standing in the center of the ruins. The middle-aged man flashed and appeared in front of Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen was startled and punched him. Zhou Chen's punch was delivered with a force of nearly ten thousand pounds. Most people would surely die if hit by this punch.

However, Zhou Chen's punch failed to hit him, but stopped an inch in front of him. It was not that Zhou Chen showed mercy, but that his punch hit an invisible wall.

The big man raised his hand and grabbed Zhou Chen's arm. He flashed and Zhou Chen staggered and was dragged out of the county government office. Zhou Chen had no chance to resist. The big man took him to the roof of a civilian's house and then stopped.

As he loosened his arms, Zhou Chen immediately took a few steps back and eight spider legs instantly appeared behind him.

"Don't get excited. I have no ill will towards you, otherwise I would not have let you leave the cell."

Zhou Chen put away his attacking posture, but the eight spider legs behind him were ready to attack at any time, "I wonder why senior brought me here?"
The big man didn't waste any time and said directly, "It was you who killed Cui Li."

After hearing this, Zhou Chen was shocked and the spider legs behind him were about to kill the big man. The big man waved his hand and said, "Don't get excited. Although he is my subordinate, this guy has a bad temper and often uses all his strength to oppress the people. If my Demon Suppression Bureau was not short of people, I would have killed him long ago."

"Sir, you are also from the Demon Suppression Bureau."

The big man did not deny it after hearing it.

"But you are not a law enforcer, so you will be punished if you kill someone."

After hearing this, Zhou Chen thought to himself, "This is still going to make things difficult for me."

"But it's not a big deal. As long as you are willing to join my Demon Suppression Division, I will pretend that this incident never happened. Otherwise, if a commoner like you dares to kill someone from the Demon Suppression Division, it's a capital crime."

As he spoke, an invisible force erupted from his body. Zhou Chen felt his heartbeat accelerate. “Is this the strength of a middle third rank? With this kind of strength, a single glance is enough to wipe out anyone below the seventh rank.”

Zhou Chen gritted his teeth and said, "My lord, I am willing to join the Demon Suppression Division."

After hearing Zhou Chen's answer, the big man stopped and said with a smile, "Haha, that's good. Cui Li died in exchange for a little guy like you. My Demon Suppression Bureau really made a profit this time."

Zhou Chen felt that he had been cheated, but the big man gave him something that completely dispelled his thoughts.
