Far away, Feilin saw the demon sliding along the ground and his face instantly changed: "Not good, it's the high-ranking demon Tulus Meltfire. Be careful, sir."

"Sir Feilin, do you know this demon?" Esk asked.

"Is there any strong being in this world that I don't know? Uh, well, the two siblings from the Luofen family, I don't know them. Humans grow too fast; they are both under twenty years old, one is a low-ranking Sword Saint, and the other is a high-ranking Swordsman. They are truly geniuses." Feilin sighed.

Anna from the Luofen family, who returned with Lisa this time, has already been seen, but her brother Luther Luofen, who is a rare low-ranking Sword Saint in recent years in this world, has not been seen.

"Is this demon very powerful? Even the sir can't defeat it?" Esk was surprised. If it were a few hours ago, Esk wouldn't have such doubts, but after experiencing Ang's four hours of resilience, he now had a blind admiration for Ang.

Feilin shook his head: "It's not that simple. If the sir were in his original form, there would be no worry, but the sir is now a Watcher. Do you know what a Watcher is...?"

Halfway through, Feilin suddenly realized he had let something slip and quickly covered his mouth in shock.

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Esk, being quick-witted, asked: "What does that mean?"

Since he had already let it slip, Feilin had to cover his tracks: "What it means is that it's a guardian, an observer. The sir can project himself into any body, but his strength is mainly determined by the body he projects into. For example, if the sir is now projecting into a gray bone skeleton, his strength is only at the level of a gray bone skeleton. It's very difficult to deal with a high-ranking demon."

Esk clenched his fists: "Then we'll go help and take him down together. How dare he burn our food."

Feilin awkwardly rubbed his hands: "I... I can't defeat him either. We have to wait for my children to arrive."

Many people think that Lord Feilin is the most powerful person in the underground city, but Feilin is very self-aware. When he was human, he wasn't a talented person and struggled with magic.

His current strength is purely the result of over a thousand years of accumulation. In terms of magic, he can't even compare to his wife Lisa.

Despite this, no one has ever dared to attack the underground city. The Demon Valley and the Ice City don't dare, even though the population of the Ice City far exceeds that of the underground city. Because Feilin can mobilize thousands of skeleton soldiers at any time, and if necessary, even tens of thousands. No force can defeat ten thousand skeleton soldiers in the underground city.

However, now he is chasing too fast, and his skeleton soldiers can't keep up. He can only provide distant support and dare not get close. As a mage, if a Meltfire demon gets close, it's a sure death.

"Ah? You can't defeat him either? Then... let's cheer for the sir." Esk immediately changed his mind.

Ang, who was angrily chasing the demon, also changed his mind. His original plan was to catch those who burned the fields and cut them down like weeds, but upon catching up, it seemed... he couldn't cut them down.

But seeing the molten lava on the demon's body, Ang immediately had an idea.

Tulus also noticed Ang and the others approaching, turned to hover, and his gaze swept over Ang, shocked for a moment because he had never seen a skull with a flaming head. His gaze then moved to the angel skull, and he was shocked again. It was actually a Battle Angel?

For how many years have Battle Angels not appeared in this world? Is the Hand of the Church of Light reaching out again? Why would they mix with skeletons? Then, his gaze skipped over the small zombie and landed on Feilin in the distance.

"Ha ha ha, Lord Feilin, are you here to see me off?" Tulus laughed.

Feilin awkwardly smiled but didn't answer because he wasn't in charge here.

This awkward expression fell into Tulus's eyes, making him frown slightly. At this moment, a faint magical fluctuation came from the skull with the flaming head. Before he could react, a stream of water droplets splashed onto his body.

The scorching lava on his body hissed and produced a cloud of white smoke.

Tulus was completely stunned. What does this mean? Water droplets? Not even a water ball, just water droplets? Is this an insult?

Before Tulus could figure it out, another stream of water droplets splashed onto his body, producing another cloud of white smoke.

"Ah ah! Die!" Tulus casually grabbed a ball of flame and threw it with force.

Although it was the lowest-level Fireball spell, Tulus's casual throw made the Fireball spell at least a level three, worthy of a fire-type Meltfire demon.

But as the fireball approached, Ang shrank his head and didn't dodge.

The fireball hit him, exploded into a ball of flames, and completely engulfed him.

The small zombie cried out in alarm and rushed over to try to save Ang, but after two steps, he heard Ang's soul fluctuation from the fireball: "Ah!"

With this roar, Ang emerged unscathed, his body pulsing with magic, and another stream of water droplets splashed onto Tulus's body.

Skeletons are naturally immune to magic, but the tough-skinned zombie is not. The small zombie, with its thick skin, is afraid of both fire and water. Rushing into the flames wouldn't save Ang; it would only set himself on fire. Unless it reached the level of copper skin and iron flesh, the zombie's fire resistance would be greatly enhanced.

"Oh, I forgot, skeletons are immune to fire. Then, taste my Lava Burst!" Tulus raised his hand, paused in front of him for a moment, and a lava fireball the size of a human head quickly formed.

The Lava Burst is clearly more difficult to cast than a level three Fireball. During this time, another stream of water droplets splashed onto his body, producing a cloud of white smoke.

The damage was low, but the insult was strong. Tulus strongly felt that he was being insulted. What does this mean? Not even a water ball, just water droplets to try to drown him?
