“Guarding Martial King Temple?”
Zhu Chen and the others were surprised, not expecting the old man to give them this task.
Having a few Spiritual-grade Martial Artists guarding such an important place seemed like a joke to them.
Their gazes fell on Tian He, whose expression remained calm, clearly having known about the task beforehand.
Su Nan was also puzzled and didn’t check the task immediately, quickly asking:
“Governor, does this mean that the ones guarding the Martial King Temple will be just us and Commander Tian?”
“Correct!” The old man nodded.
Receiving an affirmative response, Su Nan furrowed his brows further, saying, “There are quite a few Xuan-Level demons in the city, and relying on our Spiritual-grade Martial Artists will not be enough to protect it, right?”
The old man grinned, “Initially, I did not have much confidence that you could protect the nodes, but your arrival has made me fully confident.”
“Golden Rosy Clouds Tower and the Martial King’s Temple are important nodes of the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition. They naturally suppress the power of demons far more than other places. In those locations, the strength of the monsters above Spirit Level will be greatly affected, making it impossible for them to display strength beyond that of the Spirit Level.”
“This implies that even if the demon clan plans to destroy the nodes, they can only send a Spirit-level Monster at the most.”
“In ancient times, our human race practiced the ancient scriptures and would not be affected by the presence of the Divine Prohibition nodes.”
“But now, both humans and demons practice the bloodline. They carry the aura of the demon clan in their bodies and will also be suppressed upon close proximity to the array nodes. Thus, your group of Spiritual-grade Martial Artists is the most suitable.”
Understanding dawned on Su Nan, finally realizing why the old man entrusted them with such an important task.
“I have received information that most of the Mortal-Level and Spiritual-Level monsters in Tianyun County are now heading towards Tianyun City. They are expected to launch their first wave of attacks two days later, at nighttime.” “Two days later?”
The news was startling, as they didn’t expect the situation to be so urgent.
The old man looked at Su Nan and said, “Director Zhang, the old man and the others have other important tasks to do. The mission of guarding the Martial King Temple will be given to you.”
“Alright!”
Su Nan nodded. Concerning the task, even if the old man didn’t mention it, he would still take it upon himself to complete it.
Leaving the Governor Mansion.
He then looked at the Task Panel.
Under “The Human Crisis” task, there was an additional Branch Task.
[Branch Task One: Guard the Martial King Temple.]
[Task Difficulty: 3 stars.]
[Task Reward: A large number of task contribution points, determined by the number and level of the demons killed.]
[First wave mission countdown: 59 hours.]
“Isn’t this just asking me to guard the tower?”
Brightness shone in Su Nan’s eyes.
If it were really as the old man said, the demons could only display Spiritual-level strength at most.
And for him, isn’t it the same as asking him to kill however many come his way?
What’s the difference between ordinary demons and delivering vegetables to him?
The only thing he needed to be concerned about was how to ensure sufficient strength.
Although his strength was indeed formidable, he couldn’t withstand long-term consumption.
“Vitality! It seems that before the first wave of attacks arrives, I need to stock up on items containing a large amount of vitality.”
Su Nan had an idea.
Before the mission began, he planned to use all available resources to exchange for vitality-restoring items, striving to obtain a large number of task contribution points during the first wave of attacks.
Leaving the Governor Mansion.
Instead of returning to the Demon Hunting Bureau, Su Nan, along with Tian He and others, headed towards the Martial King Temple in West City.
“The Martial King Temple and Golden Rosy Clouds Tower are not in the city. The Golden Rosy Clouds Tower is five miles to the east of the city, while the Martial King Temple is three miles to the west.”
“The Martial King Temple and Golden Rosy Clouds Temple used to be bustling with incense offerings, but as the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition was destroyed, the number of monsters outside the city gradually increased, causing their decline.”
“Unexpectedly, these two places would turn out to be one of the primary nodes of the Heavenly Dome Divine Prohibition.”
Zhu Chen and the others were very surprised.
They never thought that these two seemingly mundane places would be the locations of two array nodes in Tianyun County.
Tian He said, “It’s normal for you not to know. These two places have always been secretly guarded by our City Guard.”
“Originally, our City Guard was supposed to handle this mission, but Director Zhang’s arrival made the Governor change his mind.”
At this point, Tian He looked at Su Nan and laughed, “Whether we can complete this task or not will depend entirely on you, Director Zhang.”
Su Nan shook his head, “Commander Tian, you flatter me. No matter how strong I am, I am still just one person, and I will need your help in the end.”
The group arrived at Martial King Temple.
It was a temple built on a small hill, constructed entirely of huge rocks, making it grand and spectacular.
At this time, there were numerous guards around the ancient temple, all of them Spiritual-grade!
A total of forty or fifty people!
“Commander!”
Seeing Tian He, the stationed soldiers immediately made way.
Su Nan entered Martial King Temple.
Inside the massive temple, there was a stone sculpture of a burly middle-aged man holding a long halberd. He looked very domineering.
“The array node is under this Martial King statue. As long as the statue is not destroyed, the array node will be safe.”
“In the next two days, I will guard this place personally. Director Zhang, if there is an issue, there is no need for you to always remain here.”
Su Nan laughed, “In that case, thank you for your hard work, Commander Tian.”
After familiarizing himself with the Martial King Temple’s situation, Su Nan left the temple.
Since the first wave of demon attacks would begin in two days, he naturally wanted to improve his strength as much as possible beforehand.
Zhang Yang’s mission panel appeared in front of his eyes..
