System vs Rebirth Chapter 721 Real Threat



“Go!” Faust shouted while releasing his arrow toward the enemies.

However, two people suddenly stepped forward and struck this arrow with their blades.

Their clash shook the underground passage, and the arrow ultimately exploded after the two people slashed it into pieces. After that, a lot of demons suddenly charged forward, hunting the people from the Demon Banner Army.

Knowing that they would be hunted if they remained here, Igor hurriedly led the team.

“Demon Hunting Squad. Onward! We’ll open the path. The rest shall follow us!” Igor commanded while rushing toward the exit.

He immediately saw a lot of demons waiting in their path. There were even some Spirit Wielders, Spirit Masters and Spirit Grandmasters in the mix. It seemed that the Supreme Devil Organization planned to annihilate them here.

Igor gathered his power in his fist before punching forward. The tremendous energy created a powerful shock wave that blew the demons and people away. However, Peak Level Demons and Spirit Masters in the mix managed to stop the shock wave, allowing the rest to run toward them.

“Ohhhh!”

“Attack!”

“Kill them all!”

The passage was quite spacious. At least five people would be able to fight at the same time. However, their movement would be extremely limited due to the size of the passage.

This time, Igor and two members of the Demon Hunting Squad came at their enemies while the rest provided firepower from behind.

Even Noel only used his Undying Fire to reach the depths of the enemy’s ranks.

The situation became extremely chaotic because the area was so small.

Igor used all his strength to push the enemies back. However, most of the people still remained in the big hole area. If this continued, they would be completely surrounded by enemies.

“Kill them!” Igor shouted at the top of his lungs. The Devil Bishops were doing their best to stop him. In addition, the demons kept annoying him, causing his movement to become extremely restricted.

“!!!” All of a sudden, Igor felt tremendous pressure. His instinct was telling him there was an extremely dangerous existence that approached him.

The presence moved extremely fast, to the point where a figure appeared before him out of nowhere.

“Who—” Igor widened his eyes in shock, blocking the guy’s punch with both arms. However, the punch was so strong that he felt the bone of his lower right arm crack just from a single attack.

The force and momentum this mysterious guy carried ended up blowing him away. Due to Igor’s size, the people behind him ended up getting dragged away.

“Cap—” The people from the Demon Hunting Squad were surprised. But the enemies took that chance to sneak attack them, killing three people from the Demon Hunting Squad.

“Aaaahhhh!”

“Aaaahhhh!”

The situation instantly tipped in the enemy’s favor.

Even Noel couldn’t understand what was happening. The man who stood in their way seemed to be in his fifties. Even though he looked old, his muscular body still exuded tenacity and fighting intent.

In fact, this guy looked like Igor and Faust, albeit older.

“Hmm? Who is he?” Noel tried to check on the opponent’s affection, finding out his name.

Name: Alexander Brighthammer

Affection: Hostile (100/100)

Description: Someone who will definitely kill you if you meet him.

“Alexander Brighthammer?” Noel couldn’t help but utter that name. He was completely oblivious to that name.

However, Paul, who stood next to him, gasped and asked out loud, “What did you say? Alexander Brighthammer?”

“Did you know him?” Noel asked with a confused expression.

“I should be the one asking you. You know his name after seeing his appearance…” Paul wanted to comment, but the situation didn’t allow him to. He explained the identity of that man. “He is the strongest Devil Saint, who is known to be the strongest man in the world. He is the one who is said to have reached the Spirit Transcendence Stage, just like our commander!”

“!!!” Noel widened his eyes in shock, never expecting to meet someone like him here. But the fact that he appeared here meant the Supreme Devil Organization was seriously going to annihilate them in this place.

“I thought that after that little miss managed to escape, our plans would be a failure. But to think they would still walk into traps… Maybe that little miss had died on the way. Hahahaha!” Alexander smirked and looked at these people before saying, “I will kill the captains and vice captains.”

“Yes, Sir!” The Devil Bishops acknowledged the orders and began instructing the Devil Inspector and the demons to march forward. They were going to overwhelm their enemies.

Noel clenched his teeth and began thinking, ‘What should we do? I didn’t expect someone of this level.’

He realized why Anna didn’t want him to go. She must’ve managed to escape from his grasp. But because she passed out, they ended up walking into this trap.

The fact that Anna could escape meant a lot, but Anna shouldn’t be in an enclosed space like this. So, their chance of survival was extremely small, even with all these people. After all, the enemies also brought a lot of people and demons.

‘Should we go in the opposite direction? No, it’s too far. And the Count and the First Arbiter might end up helping him in the mansion, so we will die. Then, does that mean we can only climb the hole? It’s far and only a few people can go up at the same time.’

Noel realized that it was impossible to save everyone. In fact, someone from his team might die because of this blunder.

However, Igor shouted while returning to the front. “The Demon Relief Squad had predicted the trap, but we were too stubborn to stop the mission. All of you are to bring all the people from the Demon Relief Squad and the rest you could bring up. Those who stayed behind would buy time from these people for as long as possible. Tell the headquarters that the Supreme Devil Organization is seriously aiming for our throat!”
