Chapter 385 - Infighting
Chapter 385 of "Online: I Can See Health Bars" opens with: Fortunately, the one who came was not a human.Because Fang Yu had already seen his... Find out what happens!
Fortunately, the one who came was not a human.Because Fang Yu had already seen his health bar.
Oh? Broke through 2000 health points?
Quite the rare improvement indeed.
In the one month Fang Yu had stayed in Tianyuan Town, apart from the Green Demonâs significant promotion, it seemed like the others had not changed much.
"Itâs me."
Tang Shan spoke up, removing his hat, smiling at the room full of demon comrades.
"Donât get agitated, comrades, Iâm not here to join this gathering. Iâm here to convey a message on behalf of Lord Red Moon Demon."
Convey?
Fang Yu narrowed his eyes.
As expected...
Indeed, after the demise of the Green Demon, it was within predictions that a demon of no particular renown like me would appear out of nowhere, and it was expected that someone with Tang Shanâs capabilities would wish to defect and flee.
Even now, to have several demons under my command with two thousand or three thousand health points willing to serve is an unexpected gain.
"Tang Shan, have you betrayed us?"
Che Linfang naturally sensed the ominousness of those words.
The crowd below was abuzz, with some even sneering coldly. Clearly, they looked down upon Tang Shanâs act of defecting to the neighbors.
But they completely forgot that before Fang Yuâs deeds were made known, most of them were contemplating running away with their buckets.
"What betrayal? I simply chose a better future."
"The tasks I perform will not change, itâs just that the person I report to now has changed."
"After all, we still serve the same upper echelons, there is no difference."
Tang Shan argued slyly with a smile and then hesitated before continuing.
"Almost forgot the matter Lord instructed me to convey. Listen well, the Red Moon Demon Lord is collecting test subjects from all the demon tails. Those who meet these criteria, find a way to bring them to the Luo Shen Cloth Workshop, got it?"
No one responded to Tang Shan.
But Tang Shan didnât care.
As long as the message was out, there would be others who would enforce it.
Or rather, Lord Red Moon Demon would exert pressure, compelling others to act.
Because he realized it wasnât just the personal whims of Lord Red Moon Demon, but a need from those above.
Under pressure, it didnât matter if it came from former comrades or newly minted underlings like Diao Deyi, everyone had to get the job done obediently!
For now, go ahead and be stubborn, wait until the strong-arm tactics come down, and see who dares to resist?
Iâll just wait in the Luo Shen Cloth Workshop, ready to slap these peopleâs faces and mock them when they come to deliver the test subjects.
Having delivered the message, Tang Shan turned to leave but found his exit blocked.
"Whatâs this? You want to lay hands on me? Think carefully, I am now a subordinate of Lord Red Moon Demon!"
Tang Shan turned around and sneered.
Che Linfang was whispering something next to Fang Yu, but then he saw Fang Yu draw his sword.
"Rong Qiulu."
"Here!"
"Bo Ange."
"Here!"
"Pin him down for me! Iâm going to chop his head off and send it back to the Red Moon Demon!"
At this command, the two men grinned widely and took big steps towards Tang Shan.
Tang Shanâs face suddenly changed.
"Youâre serious?! I belong to the Red Moon Demon! Iâm a man of Lord Red Moon Demon!!"
A new official has to assert his authority with three shows of strength.
Being challenged and shown contempt by someone from Red Moon Demonâs side, and even sending an ex-subordinate to strut about.
What does this mean?
Do they think Iâm a sick cat?
If Fang Yu doesnât make a strong stand today, not only will he be unable to suppress Red Moon Demonâs side, but also the newly pledged followers would lose heart and loyalty!
In the world of demons, there are few rules, itâs survival of the fittest, and thatâs all there is!
"No... No!! You canât do this!! Iâm an Ambusher! Iâve been an informant in the Underworld for many years!! You canât ruin my human disguise!!!"
Pinned down by two burly men, Tang Shan cried out in horror.
The human disguise was his only value!
Once itâs destroyed, no chance of being undercover remains, and he would lose his special value to the Red Moon Demon, becoming just another ordinary demon.
With the Green Demon gone, there were flaws in the techniques used to repair the human disguise; it was impossible to deceive people for long.
Watching Fang Yu approaching step by step, Tang Shan finally realized the severity of the situation and screamed in horror.
"Stop! Stop it!!!"
"Diao Deyi! Stop it!!!"
Amidst the roaring...
Hiss!!
A flash of sword light.
A head falls to the ground.
That unwilling-to-close-his-eyes expression still lingers on the head, however...
Boom!!
Blood Mist explodes, the true form of the demon emerges, yet it is completely suppressed by a nearby 2000-blood Blood Demon and a 3000-blood Great Demon.
Fang Yu only needs to go up and hack away relentlessly, and Tang Shanâs HP starts plummeting crazily!
"No... No!!!"
Tang Shan struggles and roars desperately.
Only now he realizes, Diao Deyi isnât just after his human disguise, heâs outright after his life!
The so-called head is his demon head, not the human disguise!
"Arenât you afraid of Lord Red Moon Demonâs revenge!!!!"
Amidst the fierce roar, the sound waves are absorbed by a translucent barrier around the inn, not letting a bit spread out.
It seems to be the ability of a certain demon.
Fang Yu doesnât care much, as he has completely figured out Tang Shan.
, gaining 1080 Experience Points.]
"Good!"
"Well killed!"
"This is the end of a traitor!!"
"Serves him right, ptui!!"
The crowd shouts excitedly, not seeing anything wrong with Fang Yuâs action.
They donât even know why Fang Yu goes for the demon whenever he gets the chance.
Itâs all Experience Points, all attribute points, indeed one must rack them up wherever possible.
Holding high a grotesque head with the distinctive thin membranes of a frog, Fang Yu turns to look at the crowd.
"Who isnât afraid of death?"
"Me!"
"Me!"
"Me!!"
Affected by the atmosphere, the response is quite loud.
Fang Yu smiles.
He casually picks a demon with less HP.
"You, are you willing to take this head for me, to deliver it to the Luo Shen Cloth Workshop, into the hands of Red Moon Demon!"
"I am willing!!"
yells excitedly.
Walking out from the crowd, as the crowd parts automatically, basking in their gazes, Lian Zhesheng feels immense honor, the honor of a demon!
Taking the demon head from Fang Yuâs hands, he lifts it high, provoking another round of cheers from the crowd.
"Whatâs your name?" Fang Yu asks again.
"Youteng Demon! Lord, my name is Youteng Demon!"
"Good! Youteng Demon, I will remember you. Whether you return or not, your name will be recorded in the honor roll of our Demon Tail Squad!"
Fang Yu behaves like a CPU, luring him on.
"Yes!!"
Youteng Demon really takes the bait, excitedly kneeling down.
What follows is the packaging of Tang Shanâs head and finding the right opportunity to deliver it into Luo Shen Cloth Workshop.
Fang Yu doesnât need to worry about this, it will be properly handled by someone.
"That soundproofing demon just now is..."
Fang Yu inquires the somewhat distracted and dazed Che Linfang.
Che Linfang comes to her senses and points to a demon in the crowd with an odd appearance somewhat like a half-candlestick.
