That night, the headquarters building of the Unicorn Bull Guild was surrounded by a large group of Demon Hunting Army troops.
After a fierce confrontation, the Demon Hunting Army directly executed a number of senior members of the Unicorn Bull Guild on site and also rescued a large group of novice professionals who nearly went astray.
When these novice professionals learned that they were almost sacrificed to the Demon God, their faces went pale with fear.
The true strength of the Demon God is hard for many to comprehend.
After all, the gap in the Demon God's power is vast, making it difficult to have a concrete standard for measurement.
However, in terms of infamy, the Demon God is definitely among the top.
Because being cursed by him basically means you won't be able to find a partner in the future...
Who would willingly accept someone who has been involved with the followers of the Demon God as their partner?
After all, it's hard to prove whether you were involved or not...
The top floor of the Unicorn Bull Guild's headquarters building.
Qin Lang stood shoulder to shoulder with a slender man.
Around them, many staff members were cleaning up the scene and collecting evidence.
Looking at the lavish decor and intentionally seductive lighting, it was not difficult to imagine that this was likely the place where Yang Yuanwu and others conducted their sacrifices.
"I really didn't expect something like this under my nose..." Qin Lang's face was ashen.
Although tracking Demon God followers wasn't his duty, he still felt uneasy.
He had interacted with Yang Yuanwu, yet hadn't noticed anything strange.
"This is a dereliction of duty on our part," the slender man said.
Indeed...
A hideout so blatant, if placed in a well-established settlement, would likely have long been dismantled, never able to lurk for so many years.
Unfortunately, with the limited manpower of the Demon Hunting Army, it was difficult to cover all areas comprehensively.
Moreover, Yang Yuanwu, even among the Demon God followers previously eliminated by the Demon Hunting Army, was a rather cunning type.
Let alone Qin Lang; even members of the Demon Hunting Army would find it hard to spot Yang Yuanwu's issues at a glance.
"Report, Captain, the search is complete, and the evidence has been sealed!"
At that moment, a member of the Demon Hunting Army came over to report.
"What about the wounded? How's the situation?" the Demon Hunting Army Captain asked.
"All receiving emergency healing downstairs, but the casualties are too many this time, and there's a shortage of healers. We've already requested assistance from the local City Lord's Mansion and the church!"
The captain frowned slightly.
It was indeed a miscalculation this time; no one expected Yang Yuanwu's fully demonized power to reach the level of a Tier Three Demon General, with combat strength comparable to a Third-Turn Professional.
Being able to achieve Third-Turn combat power after demonization at Level 55 demonstrates how much harm Yang Yuanwu had inflicted on professionals here in Shan City. Fortunately, under the fearless siege of the Demon Hunting Army, Yang Yuanwu was executed on the spot.
If he had broken through the siege and found an opportunity to fall into the Abyss, it would have meant humanity gaining yet another Demon General level opponent.
But the Demon Hunting Army paid a heavy price for it.
"Your way of fighting is simply desperate... No wonder manpower is always lacking..." Qin Lang couldn't help but sigh.
The Demon Hunting Army has always been the department with the highest casualty rate in the Professional Alliance.
It was only Qin Lang's first time witnessing their battle scene that he understood how such a high casualty rate came about.
Apart from the opponents being too strong, the Demon Hunting Army's fighting style was simply about exchanging life for life with the enemy...
"There's no way around it. Who else would join such a thankless department like the Demon Hunting Army if they weren't filled with hatred for the Demon God's minions?" Fang Tianming said with a self-deprecating smile.
Qin Lang remained silent...
Indeed, the Demon Hunting Army has always been an anomaly within the Professional Alliance.
At this moment, a soft light shone through the window, with golden feathers falling profusely.
"This..." Fang Tianming was slightly stunned, then delighted: "It's support from the church!"
Although he didn't know what specific healing technique this was,
judging from the spellcasting commotion, it could be determined to be a rather advanced wide-area healing technique.
In a place like Shan City, possibly only the local church bishop has the ability to cast such a technique.
"No..."
Qin Lang caught a golden feather and said, "It's Lin Ye who came..."
"Lin Ye?" Fang Tianming paused slightly but quickly understood.
"Is it that youth who's recently been in the limelight?"
"That's right!"
Fang Tianming's eyes lit up slightly as he said, "I'll go check it out!"
Qin Lang nodded and followed Fang Tianming downstairs.
By the time they went down, the golden feathers had already dissipated.
The effect of Holy Light Feather in healing may not match that of the Holy Healing Technique.
But it's more than sufficient for healing minor injuries.
Under the illumination of the Holy Light Feather, many people's wounds were directly healed, and they regained their vitality.
Aside from a few severely injured, most no longer required the intervention of healers.
"Lin Ye!"
As soon as Qin Lang went downstairs, he saw Lin Ye not far away and immediately greeted him, quickly walking over.
Lin Ye turned around, and upon seeing Qin Lang there, was not surprised.
After all, it was he who secretly notified Qin Lang about the issues at the Unicorn Bull Guild today.
Only he didn't expect that Qin Lang and the Demon Hunting Army would act so quickly, striking hard tonight and taking down the entire Unicorn Bull Guild.
Upon receiving the Demon Hunting Army's city-wide call for healers via text, Lin Ye rushed to the scene at the earliest possible moment.
Such acts of helping others, where he could also benefit, were not opportunities Lin Ye would pass up.
Moreover, Lin Ye held considerable admiration for the Demon Hunting Army and was willing to lend a hand even without benefits.
"Hello, Director Qin!" Lin Ye greeted Qin Lang and then looked curiously at the person beside him.
"I've heard a lot about you! I am the captain of the Third Battalion Dagger Squad of the Demon Hunting Army, Fang Tianming!" Fang Tianming introduced himself to Lin Ye.
Although he was just a captain, due to the special role of the Demon Hunting Army, even a squad leader had the authority to investigate a city's lord.
So, Fang Tianming's practical power was not low, and his willingness to introduce himself showed his regard for Lin Ye.
"Hello, Captain Fang!" Lin Ye nodded in greeting.
"Thank you for your help! Otherwise, my team members would have suffered a bit longer..." Fang Tianming expressed his gratitude again.
Lin Ye responded politely, "You're too kind, it's what I should do."
After a pause, Lin Ye asked:
"So... does that severely injured team member need me to use the Holy Healing Technique on him?"
