Above Demon City, Shi Feng's roar echoed across the entire city, leaving every player within its walls utterly dumbstruck.
"No way! He's trying to siege the city?"
"This is Demon City! Has he lost his mind?!"
The sight of Shi Feng's actions left the entire player base of Demon City stunned. They never imagined that Shi Feng would actually attempt to attack the city—head-on, no less. It was sheer madness.
It would be like someone telling them a player intended to lay siege to an NPC royal capital. Nothing short of a joke.
The pitch-black giant dragon swung its massive claw at the magical barrier hanging in midair, slamming down with devastating force.
The instant the claw swept forward, it transformed into an enormous shadow of talons that blotted out the sky and sun, crashing down like an entire mountain peak slamming into the translucent magical barrier.
BOOM!
The sky thundered, the earth trembled, and the violent shockwaves shattered the surrounding space into countless fragments, splitting apart like a mirror. The sheer power behind the blow was incomparably greater than the dragon's breath from before.
"What incredible force!" Wind's Regret stared at the trembling magical barrier in the sky, fresh from the bar, his heart shaken to its core. "That's Demon City's defensive magic formation. Even a Tier 4 NPC's full-powered strike wouldn't cause so much as a ripple—and he actually made the formation shudder. Just how powerful was that hit?!"
Everyone in Demon City knew exactly how formidable that defensive formation was.
When Demon City was first established, the Ten Saints Empire had once dispatched an NPC army to attack it. At that time, several Tier 4 NPCs had poured their full strength into bombarding the formation, and the barrier hadn't so much as produced a single ripple.
It had taken a single strike from a Tier 5 High Priest to finally break through the city's defensive magic formation.
And now Shi Feng was merely a Tier 3 player. Even in the form of a Tier 3 dragon, the best he could hope for was to match those Tier 4 NPCs, which would already be impressive enough.
Yet after a single blow, he had managed to make the magical barrier tremble and fluctuate violently. It was absolutely inconceivable.
"He's lost it! He's completely lost it!" Fire Feather Flutter watched as Shi Feng continued his relentless assault on the magical barrier, her mind reeling. "Directly bombarding the magical barrier—this is an act of siege warfare! Even the super guild Battle Wolf wouldn't dare pull something like this. When that happens, it won't just be the Demon's Heart people who intervene. The NPCs stationed in Demon City will take action too! Does he not even know that?!"
In the Divine Realm, attacking guild towns was one thing—guild towns were entirely player-owned. But a city like Demon City was different. Players only held half the ownership; the other half belonged to the demon NPCs.
It was precisely because of this that demon players had always been confident that no player could threaten Demon City.
Back when Battle Wolf had sent its army, the original goal had simply been to kill the demon players inside Demon City and weaken its power. The idea of actually besieging the city had never even crossed their minds.
And now Shi Feng was ruthlessly bombarding Demon City's magical barrier without a shred of restraint. It was as if he valued his life at nothing.
Meanwhile, back at the Demon's Heart headquarters, Zhutian Luanshi let out a deep breath of relief upon witnessing the scene.
He had nearly believed for a moment that Shi Feng's assault would shatter the magical barrier. But now that the barrier had only produced some trembling and fluctuations, it was clear that Shi Feng's attacks were well within its tolerance range.
"He actually had the nerve to make a move," Elder Nuxin murmured, equally stunned.
He had never truly expected that Shi Feng would follow through with an actual siege—and against their Demon City, no less.
"Hahaha, he's finished now! I doubt those stationed Great Demons will even need to wait for the Vice Guild Master to return before they deal with this Black Flame." The black-robed elder beside him burst into laughter as he watched Shi Feng's frenzied attacks.
They had previously been somewhat helpless against Shi Feng, with nothing to do but wait for the Vice Guild Master and the others to arrive.
They never expected that Shi Feng would lose his reason and attack Demon City directly.
Now they didn't need to lift a finger. All they had to do was sit back and watch how the Great Demons stationed in Demon City dealt with him.
Stationed Great Demons!
Those were monsters even more powerful than human NPCs. The Demon Lords who served as their commanders were terrifying existences on par with human Heroes—not something any player could hope to contend with.
"Guild Master?"
At that moment, across the entirety of Demon City, it wasn't just the masses of demon players who stood there slack-jawed. Even Qing Shuang and the others who had come along with Shi Feng were staring in open-mouthed disbelief.
