Chapter 264 - First Day of Underground Reconnaissance (1/2)

An ordinary demon monarch would find it much more difficult to advance underground than me. They can only go up to 50 kilometers deep. Any further and the rocks are too hard for them; they will be too slow. To an ordinary demon monarch, going 50 kilometers deep underground is equivalent to traveling thousands of kilometers on the surface. Therefore, third Firmament demon monarchs are typically within 50 kilometers of the surface.

Fourth Firmament demon monarchs will usually be about 50 to 100 kilometers from the surface because of King White Treasure’s constant reconnaissance. Meng Chuan nodded slightly. Earth Net also searches for demon monarch lairs. Although they can’t be compared to King White Treasure, they can roughly figure out the unspoken rules of where demon monarch lairs are located.

The underground was vast. It would be very difficult to find demon monarchs 100 kilometers deep underground without any powerful reconnaissance methods.

Meng Chuan flew up and reached a depth of 40 kilometers underground.

Let’s begin. At a depth of 40 kilometers underground, Meng Chuan kept his Divine Eye of Lightning open. He used his electromagnetic domain to probe his surroundings. Following that, he transformed into a stream of light and flew west. He began a blanket search.

There were many demon monarchs in the human world, but the land was vast. Since most of them hid 100 kilometers deep underground, finding their underground lairs was akin to searching for a needle in a haystack! Earth Net typically followed the traces of escaping demon monarchs. If one was lucky, they could discover a demon monarch lair.

One had to be capable of scanning large areas and be extremely fast to be efficient when conducting a blanket search of the underground. Otherwise, it would be better to wait for the demon monarchs to attack the cities.

Whoosh.

With the sensory feedback of his electromagnetic domain, Meng Chuan could ensure that he flew in a straight line.

So many demon monarchs have infiltrated the human world, yetit’s still so difficult to find them underground. Meng Chuan flew as his electromagnetic domain scanned a 1.5 kilometer-area around him. Even so, he didn’t discover any demon monarchs.

Swoosh!

Meng Chuan flew at high speeds, passing through countless rocks. At 40 kilometers deep in the ground, everything was rock.

After flying for 15 minutes and over 5,000 kilometers, Meng Chuan finally discovered a demon monarch lair.

Oh? When he discovered the demon monarch lair with his electromagnetic domain, Meng Chuan was pleasantly surprised. This was because he had flown more than 5,000 kilometers underground and was constantly scanning. With just rocks everywhere, it was a test of patience.

At that moment, Meng Chuan was pleasantly surprised. The electromagnetic domain enveloped the lair. This lair was nearly 1.5 kilometers above Meng Chuan. It was a cave palace dug out from rock. Inside the palace were more than 100 ordinary demons, five second Firmament demon monarchs, and two third Firmament demon monarchs.

“Come, have a drink.”

“Let’s drink.”

The seven demon monarchs were drunk.

“Demon Monarch Fox, you have done a good job stealing wine from the human race,” said Demon Monarch Elephant, who was sitting at the main seat of honor.

“Brother, this is just a little trick of mine. I can sneak into human cities to charm mortals and easily obtain large amounts of fine wine. It’s actually more troublesome to sneak into the cave abode while carrying the wine,” said Demon Monarch Fox with a smile. Beside him, a lesser demon was diligently pouring wine for him. These ordinary demons were personally brought to the cave abode by the demon monarchs. It was impossible for ordinary demons to come so deep underground by themselves.

These hundreds of ordinary demons would not leave once they entered the lair. They only had one purpose-to serve the demon monarchs.

“If we have a storage bag, it’ll be much more convenient.”

“How can storage bags be so easily obtained?”

“Let’s drink.”

These demon monarchs drank alcohol, reveling in their inebriation.

They could only hide underground in the human world. It was easy to steal alcohol, but if they wanted to slaughter humans, they would attract Godfiends. They would then be risking their lives.

“There’s only one Godfiend team in the surrounding two or three prefectures. We slaughter some mortals and immediately flee. Those Godfiend teams won’t be able to catch up to us.”

“Mm, speaking of which, it’s still faster to accumulate credit in the human world.”

“It’s just that the days are somewhat stifling. In a few more days, we will go out and slaughter once more. This time, we will definitely slaughter more than 10,000 humans.”
