Chapter 558 - The Demons Methods [Two in One] (2/2)
Not every one of the dozen or so of his high-tier beastmasters owned an epic-quality subdued beast. However, by bringing them together, they were a mighty force nonetheless! Dozens of powerful subdued beasts rose to the skies at the same time, flying in the same direction and forcing their way out of the military’s encirclement.
Very quickly, the soldiers at the military’s first defensive line were struggling to stop them.
Although the soldiers were all experts specially chosen for this mission, they were up against all the guards of the entire Freemason headquarters. It couldn’t be helped that their forces were spread out. With so many powerful subdued beasts suddenly making a rush, the cult members quickly forced an opening!
Huang Juyun, who was overseeing the battle from behind, immediately understood the infiltrated demon was trying to escape, no matter the cost. He quickly yelled out and directed his Metal Tyrant to charge forward. “Not good. The enemies’ top executives are trying to escape! Come with me. Don’t let them get away!”
Although the Metal Tyrant wasn’t a speedy beast, it wasn’t slow in such a terrain, either. The huge creature rushed forward, and swung its thick arm. Countless metal spikes appeared out of nowhere, shooting at the group of Freemason experts.
Before the arrival of the new age, this area was covered in high-rise buildings. There was no lack of all kinds of metals in the ruins below. It was very advantageous for the Metal Tyrant to display its powers here. The effects were clear to the eyes.
At the same time, the group of high-tier beastmasters who were escorting Huang Juyun closely directed their own subdued beasts to attack the same spot.
For a period of time, various lights flashed in that area, on the ground or in the sky. Even the sunlight from the sky couldn’t hide them.
Those were the elemental and skill attacks of the powerful subdued beasts. When unleashed together, it was truly extremely eye-catching!

Inside the Freemason headquarters, Zhang Che had also quickly gotten rid of a bunch of foot soldiers. He led his army of powerful subdued beasts and pets and charged out, chasing after He Luotu’s group.
“Want to run away? Have you asked my children?!” Zhang Che laughed out loud. With a wave of his hand, all his epic-quality subdued beasts and pets struck at the same time, using their respective skills. Many lights flashed, all of them hurtling towards He Luotu’s position.
The moment Zhang Che’s pets and subdued beasts made their moves, He Luotu realized his true identity, since he had read his basic information. He immediately shouted in the air, “Damn it, it’s actually you! I’ll definitely kill you one day!”
At the same time, a bright line shone in He Luotu’s eyes. A mind-confusing force suddenly spread out from him in all directions. He wanted to force an opening through the encirclement with a mental attack.
Alas, Zhang Che knew some of He Luotu’s background. Before he could activate his attack, Zhang Che shouted, “Watch out, everyone! This guy has a method to attack others mentally! Move back!”
Zhang Che’s timely warning saved the lives of many soldiers.
After hearing his warning, the soldiers retreated one after another, while commanding their subdued beasts to tighten their encirclement, preventing He Luotu from using the opportunity to escape.
A formless, colorless ripple quickly spread from He Luotu. However, only the subdued beasts of some soldiers were left inside his attack’s range.
Although those subdued beasts didn’t dodge the mental attack, they had very high resistances against such attacks to begin with. Their attacks were interrupted, but they didn’t suffer any serious injuries from He Luotu’s attack.
A tiny opening in the encirclement was forced open, but was immediately closed again.
He Luotu’s mental attack wasn’t without limit. After failing in his attempt, he could only stop helplessly and lead his men to continue fighting their way forward berserkly.
For a period of time, the crowd who were observing the spectacle from afar only saw all kinds of powerful subdued beasts fighting in a mess, be it on the ground or in the sky. Lights flashed, and rumbling noises rang out nonstop.
The visual and audio effects left the heads of those who were watching spinning. They had never seen such a grand spectacle in their lives before.
Fortunately, they understood the battlefield ahead was extremely dangerous. Although they wanted to get a clearer look, they backed off some distance subconsciously, afraid of being caught up in the terrifying attacks!

Huang Juyun was commanding the battle from the middle. He was incredibly gratified to see Zhang Che killing his way out from the back of the Freemason headquarters and warning the soldiers to dodge He Luotu’s mental attack. A faint smile showed on his face, and he said loudly, “Everyone, keep in mind not to be greedy for merit and risk yourselves to advance! You only have to keep the enemies contained here and not let them escape!”
In terms of overall strength, the military held an overwhelming advantage. As long as they weren’t greedy and kept the encirclement tight, they would definitely end up the victorious party in this battle!
He Luotu’s expression became even darker when he saw the path ahead was blocked. Wanting to break through was incredibly difficult. A dangerous cold glint shone in his eyes, and a terrifying aura quickly spread from his body.
Suddenly, killing intent surged in his eyes. He cried out loud, “Explode!”
His cry was like the rumbling of thunder, making the Freemason top executives tremble. All of them seemed to have forgotten to direct their subdued beasts to attack at the same time.
However, the expressions of the military officers, as well as Zhang Che,sank at the same time.
In the next moment, they saw the eyes of the Freemason top executives’ turning bloody red. It was like they had lost all rationality, leading their respective subdued beasts to charge forward without fear of death, not caring about the danger ahead.
Zhang Che felt a chill in his heart. He hurriedly shouted, “Everyone retreat!”
Alas, his reminder was a little too late.
The dozen or so Freemason high-tier beastmasters had led their respective subdued beasts and rushed to the encirclement perimeter, and were mixed up with the soldiers and their subdued beasts who were keeping up the encirclement.
At this moment, a faint ripple appeared from the bodies of those Freemason top executives and their subdued beasts.
In the next instant, intense light shone from the bodies of all the subdued beasts of the Freemason top executives, exploding out!
The sounds of the violent explosions converged together, like a nuclear warhead was detonated.
Intense light gathered at one spot, making even the sun in the sky lose its luster. The whole space was covered in intense white light, blinding everyone temporarily.
He Luotu’s heart was filled with hatred. He had actually ordered those beastmasters to detonate their own subdued beasts at the same time through his mind control! A terrifying shockwave quickly spread in all directions from the detonation points.
Huang Juyun’s expression had finally changed. He had shut his eyes to avoid the intense light of the explosion, but he quickly yelled out, “Retreat! Quickly retreat from this area!”
——
Zhang Che had immediately ordered his subdued beasts and pets to turn around and avoid the detonations. After he felt the shockwave coming from behind, he was so scared he quickly recalled his subdued beasts and pets with a wave of his hand, then ordered the Darkfiend Abyssal Dragon to fly away.
He Luotu was truly a demon. His methods were actually so cruel, forcing his subordinates and their respective subdued beasts to detonate themselves without a care for their lives, all just to force an opening in the encirclement for him to escape!
It seemed like they had underestimated the danger of this demon!
